President, my wife has returned to her mother's house

Chapter 157 Do you want to be my father?
His tone was gentle, and his facial lines were naturally smooth, returning to his former gentle and reserved look, as if he wasn't the one who spoke coldly last night.

Wenhua looked into his clear eyes, remembering his indifference last night, and ate the last orange segment.

"Nothing."

She looked directly at him calmly and said, "Don't move around here. I'll buy you some oranges."

Xi Mo: "..."

After staring at her slightly raised chin for a few seconds, he slightly hooked up the corners of his lips and stepped over.

"What do you mean?"

Just as he blurted out the words, as soon as the tall man arrived, Wen Hua's eyes flickered and her thin lips pursed tightly.

The man's calloused fingertips rubbed her chin, his narrow eyes were smiling, his thin lips were lightly lifted, and he said in an extremely gentle tone, "Do you want to be my father?"

"No." She lowered her eyes, "There is a new supermarket here. If you want to eat, I will buy it for you."

Xi Mo chuckled, "Whenever I want to eat fruit, it's your turn to buy it for me? My father-in-law knows not to hit me."

"Have you eaten yet?"

Wen Hua was stunned, "What?"

"Have you eaten enough oranges? If not, the Liuyue Mansion has them. The cherries and strawberries you like were flown in today. If you don't eat them, they will go bad in a few days."

This is to persuade her to go back in a roundabout way.

She bit her lip slowly, wanting to go back with him, but she felt a little awkward.

He didn't coax her or tell her where he spent the night last night. He just wanted her to go back with just a few words. She had been in a low mood for a long time from yesterday to today.

As if seeing through her, Xi Mo rubbed her slender fingers with his big hands, and his voice was magnetic and sweet, "Your two little goldfish are very beautiful. I always felt that they were restricted by putting them in a small glass tank last night. Today I bought them." A fish tank, right at the junction of the living room and the dining room, buy some fish you like in the future and put them in together, it will look better if there are more fish."

last night?

Did he go back last night?

Looking at her, he sighed softly, "I never said that I was not at home last night, and you were the one who didn't come home."

"Even after I called him, he only cared about the goldfish and refused to say a word to me."

Wenhua breathed very lightly, her red lips moved slightly, and she didn't know where to start.

All other emotions have weakened, leaving only joy and grievance at this moment.

"I heard from Dad that you came back alone last night, which made you feel wronged." He gently rubbed the corners of her eyes with his thumb, taking away a little sparkle.

He hugged her into his arms and patted her on the back lightly, his voice was soft as if he was afraid of scaring her, "Don't let Dad worry about it, come home with me, okay?"

The man in his arms nodded lightly.

On the way back, Wen Hua thought about the Moments and asked him, "Did you delete the Moments about me last night?"

Xi Mo looked sideways and said, "No."

"Then why is it blank, there were before..." She clicked into his circle of friends while talking, and saw a line of small and shallow words in the middle:

Friends only shows the circle of friends in the last three months.

Xi Mo took a look and understood, "It was exactly three months ago, maybe it was hidden after 0 o'clock. Didn't you see this line last night?"

Wen Hua choked, "Maybe it's a system problem. It didn't seem like this line was available last night."

"Maybe, you thought I deleted you?" He said lightly.

"Ah."

"Then why don't you try sending a message?"

She didn't speak.

Xi Mo took the time to look at her and said, "We haven't seen you for a few days. Why are you still less courageous?"

The fish tank he bought is very beautiful. The bottom of the tank is filled with aquatic plants and beautiful rocks with rugged shapes. Two little goldfish are happily spitting bubbles in it.

Wen Hua stared at Yu'er seriously. The man behind him took off his coat and lightly lifted his thin lips, "Che Lizi is in the refrigerator and hasn't been washed yet."

She turned around and said, "I'm going to wash it."

When I washed the strawberries and cherries and brought them out, the man in the living room was no longer there. I pursed my lips and brought them into the study, but he was not there either.

Thinking of the master bedroom, her heartbeat was a little irregular. She didn't know why she became more nervous as she got closer to the door.

When I opened the door and went in, the room was dark, and it didn't look like there was anyone there.

"Turn on the lights."

It was still dark.

The smart home system seems to be broken.

I had no choice but to fumble for the switch on the wall.

I was used to voice control in the past, but I couldn't touch it for a while.

At this time, the door behind him clicked.

Wen Hua swallowed, "Xi Mo?"

No one responded, but she heard shallow breathing.

Could it be that a thief broke into the house?

A chill ran down her spine, "Who are you!"

A very light and regular clicking sound penetrated the eardrums one by one, like a person's knuckles tapping on the table.

Looking towards the source of the sound, there was only endless blackness.

She clenched her palms weakly, and her heartbeat vibrated with the clicking sound, which affected her nerves.

With a crack, a flash of fire lit up at the source of the sound, like a hole in the darkness of the abyss being torn open by the fire, and the burst of light illuminated a circle of light and shadow.

The man was leaning against the sandalwood table, his handsome features flickering in the dancing firelight, deep and cold.

There was an aura of danger surrounding him.

As soon as his thumb was loosened, the fire was submerged in the darkness, and the scene in front of him gradually faded away, returning to monotonous darkness.

Darkness covers vision, making other senses particularly sharp.

Wen Hua smelled a hint of cool pine wood fragrance, and... the smell was getting closer and closer.

There was a whisper in the darkness, "Who do you think is the one who can enter this room?"

Her throat was dry for no reason, and she pursed her lips, "The voice control system seems to be broken. Why don't you turn on the light?"

"on purpose."

"Ok?"

"I said, I did it on purpose." The man's voice was like a night bird lurking in the dark jungle, carrying a cool night breeze.

"I washed the strawberries and cherries, please turn on the light..."

"Have you eaten downstairs?"

"Eat some."

The plate in her hand was taken away, and she tried to focus her eyes on the source of the pine smell in the darkness, and the person had already arrived in front of her.

The plate seemed to be put down by him.

Wen Hua licked her dry lips, "Don't you want to eat?"

The clear breath came over in an instant, and the surroundings were surrounded by his strong breath. His chin was suddenly lifted, and he was forced to raise his head in the darkness.

With his keen senses and the slight breath spraying on his face, he seemed to be able to picture his face in the darkness before his eyes.

Her heartbeat also picked up in her throat the moment he approached, and her intuition told her that the situation was not good now.

With a click, the metal lighter lit up again, and the firelight reflected on the two people's faces, enough to see every detail of each other's expressions.

Xi Mo stared at her with his dark eyes, delicate eyebrows, red lips, and fair skin so smooth that no skin texture could be seen. Beauty is beautiful... There was a rare hint of interest in his eyes, making her tremble slightly but pretending to be calm. ’s appearance is in full view.

Wen Hua was forced to look at him in the light. Her deep eyes looked like they were splashed with ink. They were filled with darkness that had never been revealed before. They were like a deep pool with no bottom, which only made people feel dangerous.

"Eat some, it's very sweet..." Her eyelashes trembled slightly, "I still have something to do, so I'll go out first..."

"what--"
