Chapter 2: Successfully Married, Preparing to Open for Business

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to look for her. It was just that there were so many people around that he didn’t know where to start.

After that, he was swarmed with work and did not even have the chance to meet girls. That was why he was urged to get married.

Xu Nanjin was a little excited. She didn’t expect him to really think of her.

Xu Mo said again, “Let’s go and register our marriage.”

Since it was her opinion, he had no problem at all.

Xu Nanjin’s eyes widened in surprise. Things had gone unexpectedly smoothly.

As long as he could remember her, it was fine. Besides, she had no other choice now.

She nibbled her lower lip and nodded agreement.

Xu Mo called a taxi and the two of them went straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Half an hour later, they were each holding a red marriage certificate.

They all muttered to themselves, ‘So you were prepared.’

Xu Nanjin didn’t expect Xu Mo to trust her so much, but she still said, “Do you want to do a paternity test?”

After all, they had been separated for so long and didn’t want others to be suspicious.

Xu Mo personally felt that it was unnecessary. After all, the system had confirmed it.

However, he was afraid that his parents would ask, so he agreed.

They went to the paternity center, handed his hair to the doctor, and left.

He took a taxi back to Xu Mo’s rented apartment. It was a small apartment with a bedroom and a living room. There was also a kitchen and a bathroom, and it was very comfortable to live alone.

But when the three of them stood inside, Xu Mo felt crowded.

Xu Nanjin sat on the couch and suddenly said with red eyes, “Xu Mo, our daughter’s name is Xu Nianke. If it’s convenient, you can change her name.”

“But will you forgive me if I deceived you?”

Xu Mo was suspicious. The child was definitely his. How could she have lied to him?

He asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t cry yet.”

Xiao Ke said softly, “Daddy, actually, Mommy didn’t want to lie to you, but she couldn’t think of any other way.

“Dad, just forgive us.”

Xu Mo was confused by their words. They had only reunited today. He hadn’t been deceived.

Could she have tricked him into marriage?

Not only was he willing to do such a good thing, but they had also successfully registered their marriage.

Xu Nanjin gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind. “What I said about buying you a house and giving you a car was all a lie. I don’t have money.”

She pulled a card and a phone from her bag. “There’s only a thousand yuan in the card and only two thousand in the phone.”

“If we don’t come to you soon, we won’t even have a place to stay.”

Although her outfit didn’t look cheap, Xu Mo still believed everything she said.

“We were kicked out of the family. Our financial resources were all cut off, so we couldn’t do anything we just promised you.”

So that was it. Even if she really had them, Xu Mo would have never asked for them.

Of course a man had to fight for himself. How could he live off a woman?

Moreover, he suddenly had a wife and a child on a blind date. This was simply too satisfying.

Xu Mo wanted to help her wipe her tears, but he retracted his hand halfway. After all, they had just reunited today, so it was better to maintain his manners.

He said, “It’s small, but as long as I’m here, you won’t have nowhere to live or eat.”

Xu Nanjin heaved a sigh of relief and shouted, “Xiao Ke, are you tired? Do you want to rest first?”

Xiao Ke was moving around the room. “I’m not tired, Mom,” she said excitedly.

She turned to Xu Mo and said, “Dad, I finally found you. I’m so happy.”

She opened her small hands and pounced on Xu Mo. “Daddy, can you hug me?”

It was the first time she had seen her father. She was so excited.

She finally had a father. She no longer had to envy other children.

Xu Mo picked her up and held her head close to his.

This was his daughter. He had missed three years of her growth. He had to work hard to make it up to her in the future.

Her daughter’s small body was warm, and Xu Mo seemed to have grown up in an instant.

Xu Mo sat beside her and told her about his situation. Xiao Ke played with the rabbit ears.

She kept moving around the room, trying to get to know his dad.

Xu Nanjin had thought that finding him would solve the problem, but now she realized that there were still many problems.

There was only one bed here. How were they supposed to sleep at night?

Besides, he didn’t seem to have much money. What if Xiao Ke needed money for kindergarten?

It was already August. School was due in September.

Xu Mo seemed to know what she was thinking and said calmly, “Don’t worry, with me around, everything can be resolved.”

The couch was very small and the two of them were so close. Xu Mo accidentally touched her hand and Xu Nanjin became shy.

Nervous at the touch of the opposite sex, she sidled away.

However, the space was too small. If she was not careful, half of her body would be hanging outside.

Xiao Ke suddenly thought of something and pounced on her, pushing her into Xu Mo’s arms.

“Mom and Dad, I want ice cream.”

The heat reminded her of the taste of ice cream.

Xu Nanjin blushed in Xu Mo’s arms.

Her heart was pounding, as if a deer was about to burst out of her chest.

She quickly sat up straight and said with a straight face, “You’re not allowed to eat it. Children’s teeth will be broken when they eat sweets.”

Xiao Ke looked at Xu Mo pitifully. “Daddy, this is the first time I’m begging you. Buy me an ice cream.”

How could he not agree to such a small request when his daughter was so adorable?

Xu Mo hugged her and said, “Ice cream is fine. Let’s go earn money first.”

Then the three of them went to the address given by the system.

This was originally a street in the night market. At night, there were a lot of customers, and most of the shops were closed at this moment.

The business hours were from seven in the evening until four or five in the morning.

Traffic was busy during the day and the place was isolated at night, forming a food street.

He had been given a store, with a row of mobile stalls in front.

Xu Mo unlocked the door and walked in.

The area was small and the renovation was simple.

Inside the house were several tables and a dozen chairs.

The tools for egg fried rice were simple. There was only a stove, a big rice cooker, and some condiments.

The operating permit was hanging on the wall, as was the health certificate.

He could just get a simple menu and open for business.

Coincidentally, there was a shop opposite that did advertising. Xu Mo went in and quickly finished it.

“Egg fried rice, fifteen yuan apiece.

“Can be spicy.

“Side dishes available.”

There were several restaurants on this street that sold egg fried rice for 12 yuan each.

Xu Mo was confident in his skills and raised the price slightly.

Xiao Ke had been following Xu Mo and was very curious about the things in the shop.

She asked childishly, “Daddy, are we going to make money here from now on?”

Xu Mo nodded. “Yes, we’ll start work tonight.”

Xiao Ke clapped her hands and said happily, “That’s great. We can have egg fried rice.”

Xu Mo smiled and said, “Then can you sit at the door as a mascot?”

As soon as Xiao Ke heard that she was going to be a mascot, she sat obediently in the doorway and smiled brightly. “Daddy, is this okay?”

She still had big rabbit ears on her head, and she was wearing pale pink clothes. She looked absolutely adorable.

Xu Mo praised, “Very good. Let’s work hard together tonight.”
