Chapter 18: Did You Knock Your Head?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After last night’s embarrassment and later angering her, the opening was indeed not very good.

Xu Mo felt that he had to think twice about everything. Otherwise, what if his wife ran away?

His daughter was so cute. He hadn’t heard her call him Dad enough.

Xu Nanjin agreed happily. “Then I’ll continue.”

Why did she feel so happy doing these simple things? It must be because of Xu Mo! It must be!

The four sealed bottles were quickly filled, and everyone beamed with satisfaction.

He’d bought ten-pound bottles, which were quite a lot.

Xu Mo had specially looked at the fridge. It was big enough.

He took out all the shelves and put the bottles in.

There wasn’t much room left. Anyway, he bought fresh vegetables every day. It was just right.

Xu Mo said, “Are you hungry? I’ll heat up your breakfast for you.”

As soon as he said that, Xu Nanjin’s stomach growled.

She said awkwardly, “I can do it myself.”

She put the buns in the microwave and turned it on for twenty seconds.

They faced each other, suddenly speechless.

Xu Mo had been thinking of a way to quietly wipe the lipstick off her face.

After thinking about it for a long time, he said, “Actually, I’ve been wanting to tell you something, but I don’t know how.”

Xu Nanjin suddenly became nervous. Were they going to break up?

‘It can’t be, can it? Are we really going to get a divorce in a flash?’

It hadn’t been easy for Xiao Ke to find her father. She had never called him her husband.

She tugged at the corner of her shirt. “Tell me.”

Xu Mo hesitated for a moment before saying, “There’s… something on your face.”

Xu Nanjin had long forgotten about the lipstick on her face. When she heard this, she said shyly, “What? You scared me.”

“Are you trying to say that I’m kind of cute?’

She was always optimistic. The unhappy events of last night were forgotten when she woke up.

After all, she wanted to develop her relationship with Xu Mo. She was very happy to hear such kind words.

Xu Mo chuckled dryly and continued, “It’s quite cute, but there’s something else.”

“You stand still while I get a towel.”

He kept walking as he looked back. “I’ll be back soon. Hold on.”

Xu Nanjin touched her face. She didn’t feel anything.

She wanted to look in the mirror, but Xu Mo was already out.

The buns were already warm. She opened the microwave and said, “What’s on my face? Why don’t you wait until I’ve had breakfast?”

Xu Mo said, “Let’s eat later. It won’t take a minute.”

Seeing how anxious he was, Xu Nanjin said, “Why don’t I do it myself?”

‘Does he think my make-up looks bad, so he wants to wipe it off?’

Ahhh, I wouldn’t look beautiful if he wiped it.

Xu Nanjin suddenly came to a realization when she looked down and saw Xiao Ke squatting on the ground and picking at the diamonds on her shoes.

With a gasp, she covered her face and rushed into the bathroom.

She had spent so much time with Xu Mo just now!

‘She’s hopeless. When will she display her perfect image?’

It was some time before she reemerged, her make-up all washed away.

However, in Xu Mo’s opinion, she looked good even without makeup.

Xu Nanjin ate her buns in silence. The atmosphere was tense.

Xiao Ke put down two diamonds and insisted that Xu Mo stick one on her forehead.

“Daddy, this looks great on the forehead. It even glows in the sun.”

Xu Mo had no choice but to stick it on her as requested.

Xiao Ke was delighted and went happily into the room.

Her mother had brought her a doll. She was going to stick the other one to the doll’s head.

Xu Mo sat at the dining table and watched her eat elegantly.

Her long, flowing hair was tied into a low ponytail that fell softly behind her shoulders.

Her silk shirt matched a pair of pantaloons. Intellectual and elegant.

Her skin was glowing. She was beautiful no matter how he looked at her.

He said, “I’m free this afternoon. Want to go for a walk?”

It was probably too late for a movie. They might as well check in at the nearest scenic spot.

Apart from the marriage certificate photo, their family had never taken a photo together.

Speaking of which, no one knew that he was married yet. It was time to post a photo to announce it.

Xu Nanjin looked at the sun outside and hesitated. “It’s too hot. Forget it.”

“Besides, we may have to work late at night. You didn’t sleep well yesterday when I disturbed you. Why don’t you catch up on your sleep?”

She’d never liked shopping. Not in this heat.

Although there were many shopping malls, she still felt more comfortable at home.

Xu Mo was speechless. Was it so difficult to ask her out?

Something told him he was doing too little for her. He suddenly brightened.

Wasn’t cooking at noon an opportunity to show off? It wasn’t tiring for men and women to work together, so she could help.

Xu Nanjin finished the last bite, wiped her mouth, and went to wash the dishes.

“Put it down and let me do it,” Xu Mo said quickly. “Just sit and rest.”

How could he let her do the chores? How could he make amends?

Materialistically, he was trying. In life, he wanted to do everything right.

Xu Nanjin also wanted to show herself. She said firmly, “I’ll wash it. Go and rest.”

‘Are you kidding? I’m a modern woman who can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen.’

Xu Mo was already very tired from making egg fried rice. There was no need to trouble him with such a small matter.

Xu Mo became nervous when he heard that. Was he going to miss the opportunity to perform again?

So he immediately took the bowl and put it in the sink.

He turned on the tap and began to wash.

Xu Nanjin was unwilling to fall behind. She picked up a cloth and went to wipe the table.

After cleaning, she swept and mopped the floor. He was ridiculously diligent.

When she was done, she wanted to go into the kitchen and clean up.

However, as soon as she entered, she bumped into Xu Mo. She couldn’t help but rub her nose.

She looked up and saw Xu Mo smiling gently at her.

Up close again, he was so handsome that she felt dizzy.

Looking at her silly expression, Xu Mo smiled and asked, “Did it hurt?”

Why did it look like she had hit herself quite hard? She was so cute.

There was only one sentence in Xu Nanjin’s mind. Xu Mo’s smiling at me. He smiled. It was a beautiful smile.

It took her several seconds to realize what she was doing. “Maybe I hit my head last night,” she said, holding her nose. “It hurts a little.”

Xu Mo said, “I think so too. Otherwise, why do you keep bumping into my arms?”

“…”

Xu Nanjin blushed. She didn’t do it on purpose.

“You—you’re so annoying.” She twisted around and slithered into the room.

‘Oh dear, I can’t say. That’s so awkward.’

Xiao Ke saw her mother come in, her face still red. “Mommy, what’s wrong?” she asked with concern.

“Did you steal a bite of the pickled carrot Dad just made? The chili in it is too spicy. Your face is red from the heat.”

They had just made the pickled carrots. No matter how stupid she was, she wouldn’t be in such a hurry to eat them.

Besides, she didn’t dare to try the peppers.

She covered her face. ‘Why hasn’t the temperature dropped?’

She turned around and went into the bathroom. She had to water herself to calm down.

It was just a flirtatious remark. Why couldn’t she control herself?

‘Ahhh, this must be what it’s like to be tempted.’
