‘I can hide for now, but what am I going to do in the future? I can’t possibly avoid them forever, right?’

When Xu Youyou thought about how she had just started dating, but there were already problems with her boyfriend’s family, she could not helpbut feel uneasy.

Mo Shenbai thought about it for a moment before he said with a smile, “They’re not that scary. It’s just that they… they talk too much, and they’re long-winded…”

Mo Shenbai knew that if those elderly uncles and aunts met Xu Youyou, they would surely urge her to give birth as soon as possible.

Xu Youyou sighed in relief and said in a soft voice, “That’s good. I’m not afraid if they’re long-winded; I’ll just listen to them talk.”

Mo Shenbai did not expect her to accept it so quickly. He caressed her face gently and said, “You’re so cute so they’ll definitely like you very much.”

Xu Youyou was not worried about this. She said confidently, “I also think that they’ll like me. Elders generally like me a lot!”

Mo Shenbai stared at her tender face and bright smile. He could not help but lift her chin and kissed her.

Xu Youyou was stunned, but she reacted quickly. She closed her eyes and accepted his kiss.

Mo Shenbai felt like he was addicted to her. Once he touched her, he could not stop, and he did not want to stop.

In the end, Xu Youyou could not stand it anymore. She had raised her neck for too long that it began to feel sore. She pulled away from the kiss and said, panting slightly, “Neck… My neck hurts…”

Mo Shenbai paused and gently rubbed his lips against hers before he pulled away reluctantly. He was panting slightly as well, and beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead.

Xu Youyou’s eyes were bright and extremely alluring as she said, “The kiss… is too long…”

Mo Shenbai only laughed happily as his fingers gently rubbed the back of her neck, trying to help her relieve the pain.

Xu Youyou glared at him and said, “Don’t laugh!”

Mo Shenbai stopped laughing before he said, “I’ll tell you about the Mo family in the future. Don’t be afraid. I’ll always be there for you.”

Xu Youyou’s heart skipped a beat when she met his burning gaze. She nodded slowly. “Okay.”

“Rest early. Good night,” Mo Shenbai said before he rubbed her head and rose to his feet to leave the room. If he did not leave now, he was afraid he would not be able to leave tonight.

…

The next day.

The world turned white from the snow. The scenery looked like it came out of a fairytale.

Xu Youyou packed her things, preparing to go home. She did not have much to pack since she still had her clothes and the things she needed at home. She only brought her iPad and art supplies.

Mo Shenbai personally sent her back to the Xu family house. The trunk of his car was filled with gifts for the Xu family.

The Xu couple warmly welcomed Mo Shenbai and invited him to stay for lunch.

Mo Shenbai politely declined their invitation before he sent Xu Youyou to her room. He stood at the door and said patiently, “The weather is cold these days. Don’t run around outside. If you go out, remember to dress warmly.”

Xu Youyou nodded. She smiled and said perfunctorily, “I know.”

‘In any case, I’m back home. I can do whatever I want, and you won’t know…’

Mo Shenbai reached out and poked her dimple. “Don’t be disobedient. If you don’t listen to me and catch a cold, I’ll tell the doctor to give you an infusion every day.”

After being reminded of the needle, Xu Youyou said solemnly, “Don’t slander me. I’m very obedient.”

Mo Shenbai held the back of her head gently before he leaned down and kissed her forehead lightly. “Call me if you miss me.”

Xu Youyou looked up at him and asked, “Will you call me?”

Mo Shenbai thought about it for a moment before he replied, “That’ll depend on whether I miss you.”

Xu Youyou pouted immediately.

‘Why is he so cold?’

Seeing the depressed expression on her face, Mo Shenbai smiled and asked, “Why are you so gullible?”

Before Xu Youyou could react, Mo Shenbai had already pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead again. Then, he said in a low and hoarse voice, “I’ll definitely miss you, and I’ll call you.”

Xu Youyou’s gloominess was instantly swept away. She hugged his waist and said, “I’ll miss you too. When I miss you, I’ll definitely call you to tell you I miss you!”

The duo hugged each other tightly. Neither of them said anything and quietly enjoyed the warmth of the moment.

At this time, Xu Jialu, who was leaning against the wall and watching the show for a long time, scoffed and said, “Hey, can the two of you pay attention to your surroundings? I’ve been here for a long time. Do you treat me like the air?”

Xu Youyou hastily released her hold on Mo Shenbai as soon as she heard Xu Jialu’s voice. Her face flushed red with embarrassment immediately.

Mo Shenbai frowned unhappily when he felt the emptiness in his arms. He glanced coldly at the culprit who ruined the atmosphere.

Xu Jialu raised his chin and asked, “What are you staring at? This is my home, my territory.”

Mo Shenbai did not want to argue with him. He said, “Take good care of my girlfriend.”

Xu Jialu was just about to retort with a ‘What the f*ck are you talking about?’ when he heard Mo Shenbai say, “Take good care of her if you still want to go on the 15-day trip to the Maldives.”

Upon hearing these words, Xu Jialu’s attitude changed immediately. “Yes, Chairman Mo. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of your girlfriend!”

Xu Youyou: “…”

‘Brother, can you have a little bit of integrity?’

Mo Shenbai nodded, satisfied. Then, he looked at Xu Youyou with a tender gaze before he turned around and went downstairs.

Xu Youyou stood by the door as she watched his back, feeling reluctant to part with him.

Xu Jialu walked over and poked her forehead as he said, “He’s already left, you little infatuated fool!”

Xu Youyou swatted his hand away and said, “Oh, you dare to talk to me like that? Who was it that lost his integrity earlier? Don’t you know that you can’t throw your integrity away for money?”

Xu Jialu crossed his arms and said seriously, “Indeed, but it can be thrown away for the Maldives…”

Xu Youyou: “…”

‘Forget it. I can’t count on him to have integrity.’

…

Xu Youyou’s family was naturally overjoyed that she had returned.

In the afternoon, Mr. Xu went to the hospital to pick Old Madam Xu up.

The family was very lively as they celebrated the new year.

When Old Madam Xu found out that Mo Shenbai was busy and could not spend the new year with them, she did not ask too many questions. She was happy as long as she could spend time with her granddaughter.

…

On the morning of new year’s eve.

The doorbell rang.

After looking through the peephole, Aunt Pei turned around and said, “The entire Lin family is here.”

Xu Youyou, who was chatting with Old Madam Xu, stopped smiling immediately. When she talked about seeing the Lin family again, she really could not force herself to smile.

Old Madam Xu seemed to understand Xu Youyou’s thoughts as she reached out to pat Xu Youyou’s hand and said, “If you don’t want to see them, then you can return to your room.”

Xu Youyou, who already had this idea, said, “Thank you, Grandma.”

“Alright, hurry up and return to your room,” Old Madam Xu said as she watched Xu Youyou go upstairs. When Xu Youyou vanished from sight, she signaled Aunt Pei to open the door.

When Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu learned of the Lin family’s visit, one came out from the study, and the other came out from the kitchen.

Lin Huai and Lin Yin were both carrying things in their hands while Lin Zhihuan stood behind Wang Xiaohui, suppressing her anger.

Lin Huai smiled. “Aunty Xu is here as well. Jianshu, A Ying…”

Xu Jianshu and Cheng Ying smiled faintly in response.

Lin Yin’s gaze swept across the room, looking for Xu Youyou. When he saw she was not around, he greeted the others.

Old Madam Xu said, “Come and have a seat. You brought so many things here. You don’t have to be so polite in the future.”

“It’s nothing,” Lin Huai said with a smile. Then, his smile disappeared, and his expression turned slightly unnatural before he continued to say, “I came here today not only to visit you, but also to solemnly apologize to Youyou for what Huanhuan did before.”
