Chapter 7: My Husband Ran Away When I Woke Up?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xu Mo was speechless. What a question.

The child was his. Of course he had to marry her.

Was he going to let her continue being a single mother and leave the child without a father?

He said, “I was the one who asked for your help in the first place. Besides, you treated it like a real blind date. Just consider that we took a liking to each other.”

Xu Nanjin blushed. She had only wanted to try.

However, she did not expect the progress to be so fast. Instead, she felt that it was unreal.

She was still a little worried about the current predicament.

“But I don’t have any money now. Why don’t I squeeze in here first?

“We’ll sleep on the couch in turns, or it’ll be too much for you.”

She had to get a job as soon as possible to take the pressure off.

Xu Mo said firmly, “Since you’re here, I’ll try my best to let you live comfortably.”

“It’s getting late. You and Xiao Ke should get some rest as soon as possible.”

“I’ll find an apartment now and move there tomorrow if it suits us.”

Xu Nanjin could only shut up and obediently bring Xiao Ke to take a shower.

Although this place was small, it had everything. The mother and daughter took a comfortable shower and lay in bed.

After a long day, Xiao Ke was tired.

She hugged Xu Nanjin’s neck and said, “Mommy, why doesn’t Daddy sleep with us?”

She adored her father and wanted to spend time with him.

Xu Nanjin explained awkwardly, “The bed is too small. Daddy is not comfortable sleeping here.”

“But the couch is smaller. Dad would be uncomfortable too.”

Of course, Xu Nanjin knew that the couch was small and Xu Mo would feel uncomfortable sleeping on it. She felt even more guilty when her daughter said it.

She was fully dressed and sat up in bed. “I’ll ask him, then.”

Xu Mo was busy reading the rental information. Xu Nanjin stood in front of him and he didn’t notice.

“Xu Mo,” Xu Nanjin called out and sat beside him.

He twisted around and asked, “Why aren’t you resting? Is something wrong?”

He had just seen a piece of rental information. It was only a few hundred meters away from them.

It was 110 square meters, with three bedrooms and one living room. It was spacious and bright, and the rent was ten thousand yuan.

It was a little expensive, but it was comfortable to live in.

This would do. He’d already decided to rent it.

Xu Nanjin couldn’t bring herself to say it. After a long while, she said, “Our daughter want to interact more with you. Why don’t you sleep with us?”

After saying this, she felt so embarrassed that she could not raise her head.

That was a bit awkward. Invitations really weren’t her strong suit.

If Coca hadn’t been there, that would have meant a lot.

She wondered how she had the nerve to ask him to marry her. Indeed, courage only came once.

Xu Mo smiled, knowing that she only said that because she couldn’t bear to let him sleep on the couch.

Although they had already registered their marriage, it was better to develop it slowly.

After all, if she was testing him or something, it was not impossible for him to get divorced just as quickly.

It wasn’t easy to find a wife and daughter. Of course he had to dote on them.

He said, “It’s okay. I’ve got the house in sight. We’ll take a look at it in the morning when we get up.”

“You have to believe in my health. It’s only for one night.”

“Alright then.” Xu Nanjin didn’t dare to stay any longer. She turned around and ran back to her room like a frightened rabbit.

Closing the door, she exhaled slowly.

It had been a few years since she came into contact with Xu Mo. Now, she was completely like a stranger.

If they slept in the same bed again, she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to sleep all night.

Xiao Ke was so sleepy that she could barely keep her eyes open.

When she saw her mother return, she blinked and said, “Why didn’t Daddy come in?”

Xu Nanjin couldn’t bear to disappoint her, so she coaxed her. “Daddy still has things to do. When you wake up in the morning, you can see Daddy.”

“All right, then.” Xiao Ke slept peacefully.

Although Xu Nanjin’s mind was in a mess, she quickly fell asleep.

Xu Mo carefully took a shower and looked at the small couch, lying down in resignation.

Despite his discomfort, he fell asleep when sleep overtook him.

The morning sun shone on his eyelids, and Xu Mo opened his eyes.

It was still early, so he went down to buy breakfast.

As soon as he left, Xu Nanjin opened her eyes.

She was almost confused as she stared at the unfamiliar room.

It took her dozens of seconds to remember that she was already married and was now living in Xu Mo’s house.

She got up and went out, only to find that Xu Mo was not there.

This instantly unnerved her. Had she scared him off?

She touched her face. She didn’t think she was ugly.

Then she thought about her destitution and Xiao Ke. Did he run away because he didn’t want to take responsibility?

‘If he was going to run away, why did he marry me?’

Puzzled, she sat on the couch and sighed.

But she refused to give up. She took out her phone and sent a message.

Southern Breeze asked, “Where did you go?”

Evil Me said, “You’re awake. How was your sleep?

“I’m downstairs getting breakfast. I’ll be back in a minute.”

So he went to buy breakfast. Xu Nanjin heaved a sigh of relief.

She knew that Xu Mo was not an irresponsible man. Otherwise, he would not have married her.

But he didn’t seem very keen on making contact with her yesterday.

That depressed her a little. Was she that unattractive?

Suddenly, she wanted to hide in a corner and whimper.

After entering the room, she realized that Xiao Ke was not awake yet, so she went to wash up.

Just as she came out after washing her face, she saw Xu Mo walking in with breakfast.

The two of them met and Xu Mo smiled at her.

Xu Nanjin was mesmerized by his handsome smile. There was only one sentence in her mind: He’s smiling at me.

She’d been alone with her child for the past few years. It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought of looking for him.

Only for various reasons she kept flinching.

It was only now that she really had no choice that she decided to give it a try.

She had already investigated Xu Mo.

He never hung around with inappropriate people and he was hardworking. It seemed that he had not found a girlfriend after separating from her.

Although his job was not good, he was not a burden.

Thinking of this, she said quickly, “It’s Monday, isn’t it? Have breakfast and go to work. Leave the rest to me.”

Xu Nanjin’s heart ached at the thought of him working two jobs alone.

But now that the economy was in trouble, this was the only way.

Xu Mo asked her to sit down and said calmly, “I’ve already submitted my resignation letter last night. I’ll open a shop to support you in the future.”

That job paid too little, and it had no prospects.

Since he had obtained the Gourmet Sign-in System, he naturally had to bring food to greater heights.

Xu Nanjin calculated yesterday’s turnover and felt that this idea was not bad.

If Xu Mo really did two jobs a day, she would blame herself.

She looked down and bit her lip. Then she said, “Then in a moment I’ll find a job and lighten your load.”

Xu Mo felt that there was no need to be so hasty. If she went out to work, the two of them would not have a chance to interact.

He said, “I think your live stream yesterday was pretty good. If we can attract more people, it’ll be better than working.”

Xu Nanjin immediately felt that what he said made sense.

Thinking that she was also useful, she felt sweet.

She nodded happily. “Then that’s my job.”
