Must Do It Another Day

Bulgari Hotel.

At middle age, one's life is settled.

A hasty affair.

Under Shen's Mother's disdainful gaze.

Shen Cheng lit a post-coital cigarette.

In the early years,

before marriage,

Shen Cheng was also an outstanding playboy.

But this playboy, by middle age,

had turned into an old playboy.

Various emotional moments couldn't be controlled and welled up.

There's no way around it.

This has to be taken care of when young.

Otherwise, in old age... empty tears.

Buzz------

Shen's Mother's phone on the bedside table rang.

She curiously picked it up to take a look.

"Who's calling?" Shen Cheng asked nonchalantly, blowing out a ring of smoke.

His expression, as if he had converted to Buddhism.

Before getting it, it's a treasure; after getting it, it's garbage.

Probably referring to the old playboy.

Shen's Mother replied irritably,

"Your daughter!"

Shen Cheng was dumbfounded.

Why would his daughter, who should be resting with her boyfriend, call at this time?

Aren't they tired?

Shen's Mother picked up the phone.

"Mom, it's almost midnight, why aren't you back yet?"

Shen Manni's voice, full of complaints, came through.

Being stood up by her own mother, really no one else!

Shen's Mother frowned, thinking of her daughter's shameless screams, her face flushed as she retorted!

"You brat, don't you know what you did at home, and you still have the nerve to call and question me."

"Playing the reveal card, fun, isn't it?"

Shen Manni was dumbfounded, "Reveal card? What reveal card am I playing?"

Shen's Mother was furious, "Still pretending to your own mother!"

"Your little tricks, all seen through by your mother."

"On one hand, you show strong resistance to Xu Corporation's Xu Mo, making your dad and I believe it."

"On the other hand, you like Xu Mo immensely and even brought him home!"

"Then, when the grandchild is born, you reveal the truth!"

"What else could this be but a reveal card?"

Shen's Mother's scolding came down like a storm.

Making Shen Manni both ashamed and angry.

What grandchild, what reveal card, what nonsense?

She didn't, she didn't do it, she never did!

Shen Manni seemed to realize something, asking with her intelligence on, "Mom, did you come back?"

Shen's Mother's face turned beet red.

What does this brat want to do!

"Yes! Your mother came back not long ago, what, if I hadn't come back, how long were you planning to deceive us?"

"This daughter is really white-raised!"

"A ungrateful wretch!"

Shen Manni, equally flushed, was scolded to the core.

My dear mother, there must be some misunderstanding.

Shen Manni, looking at her still slightly swollen ankle, felt wronged.

She continued to explain to her mother, sending photos as proof.

After a lot of effort,

the misunderstanding on Shen's Mother's side was finally cleared up.

This series of fierce actions

directly left Shen Cheng and Shen's Mother dumbfounded.

Shen Cheng suddenly felt that the post-coital cigarette in his hand wasn't appealing anymore!

This is absurdly absurd.

More thrilling than a roller coaster ride, a million times over!

Like buying a five-billion-dollar lottery ticket.

All the previous numbers were correct, but the last one didn't match.

On the other side.

Shen Manni's cheeks were flushed, her earlobes red.

"I'm really sorry tonight, my mom will be back soon, you can go home then."

Xu Mo yawned, lazily waved his hand, "No problem, no problem."

After a few words,

the atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

Xu Mo's heart was also too lazy to complain.

He silently took out his phone, planning to watch some short videos.

To pass the boring time.

"Hmm? Someone called me? And texted?"

Xu Mo glanced at it.

Goodness, six missed calls.

Seventeen unread messages.

Xu Mo first checked.

The missed call numbers.

Two from Su Ting, the other four from Xu Shi.

Probably because of the incident at Dark Night Bar.

Xu Shi called.

Most likely.

Also because she didn't want Su Ting and Xu Fuqiang to worry.

And to take a look, if her brother was dead or not.

If dead, help with the funeral.

Xu Fuqiang not calling was also understandable.

Su Ting calling was enough.

He watched from the side.

Xu Mo ignored Xu Shi's missed calls.

Directly called Su Ting back to report safety.

At the entrance, the call lasted about twenty minutes.

After a lot of persuasion,

he finally managed to deceive Su Ting.

Xu Mo said he wouldn't wander anymore and would go home immediately.

In fact, it was the same.

Back in the living room.

Xu Mo opened his phone's email.

These messages were all from Xu Shi.

Glancing through them roughly.

Xu Mo had an expression of "as expected."

Then he deleted all these junk messages.

Xu Shi: There was a shooting at Dark Night Bar tonight, heard you were drinking there?

Xu Shi: No other meaning in texting you, just want to ask, are you dead? If not, reply.

Xu Shi: See the message, reply quickly, so I can dispel the idea of quickly inheriting the entire Xu family's property.

...

Xu Shi: Not replying, huh? You'd better die outside tonight, don't come back!

"o(*￣︶￣*)o Hehe... little thing, trying to compete with your brother, you're too young."

Xu Mo smugly smiled.

His heart was a bit annoyed.

For the sake of his parents, he couldn't blacklist Xu Shi's number.

Xu Shi was the same.

Both had made promises to their parents.

Ah... tough!

While Xu Mo was lost in thought, the sound of the door opening came from outside.

"Manni, your mom's back!"

Xu Mo felt relieved.

Shen Manni frowned, still nodded.

"It's too late tonight, I'll go back first."

Xu Mo said goodbye and left first.

This time he was smart.

No more nonsense about seeing each other next time.

He met Shen's Mother at the door.

Shen Cheng didn't come back with her.

Probably the old playboy was too exhausted.

Inconvenient to move.

"Xiao Xu! Why don't you stay at Auntie's tonight?"

"Auntie's villa may not be as grand as yours, but it's quite spacious."

"There's a spare room for you."

Shen's Mother immediately invited Xu Mo upon seeing him.

Xu Mo liked her daughter immensely, she knew it well.

So she wouldn't let him go so easily.

If it turned out to be true, that would be the best.

Xu Mo chuckled awkwardly, acting like a seasoned actor, "Uh... Auntie Shen, Manni had her period today, and accidentally twisted her ankle."

"Another day, another day for sure."

Shen's Mother understood, not thinking too much.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries.

She finally reluctantly saw Xu Mo off.
