In response to Jiujiu's question, Mo Xiao lowered his head and looked at Jiujiu. With a serious expression, he repeated what he had just said, "Susu, let's live together."
When Mo Xiao had said 'let's live together', Jiujiu had thought she was hearing things. However, when she heard Mo Xiao repeat it again, Jiujiu looked at Mo Xiao in disbelief. The corners of her mouth twitched as she said, "I don't think I've agreed to your pursuit yet."
"But you'll agree in the end, right?"
Mo Xiao's words directly blocked all the reasons Jiujiu wanted to reject him. The corners of Jiujiu's mouth twitched and she couldn't say a single word.
When Mo Xiao saw that Jiujiu didn't refute him, the corners of his mouth curved upwards. He slowly said, "Susu, I've already spent over thirty years waiting for you to appear. Do you really have the heart to make me wait for you for a few more years?"
At this point, Mo Xiao even went along with her and sighed, "Since we're going to be together sooner or later, why waste time on those unnecessary pursuits?"
Jiujiu: "…"
For some reason, she felt that what he said made sense.
Jiujiu looked at Mo Xiao and Mo Xiao looked at Jiujiu. After their eyes met for a while, Jiujiu uncomfortably pursed her lips and said softly, "But, don't you think it's too fast?"
"Every day that I'm with you, I feel that it's very fast. So, don't let my time continue to be wasted, okay?"
After Mo Xiao finished speaking, she suddenly bent down and placed her hands behind Jiujiu's back. She lowered her head and her breath hit Jiujiu's neck.
His warm breath made Jiujiu subconsciously shrink her neck back. The moment she did so, Mo Xiao suddenly lowered his head and kissed her on the top of her head. She heard Mo Xiao say in a gentle voice that was almost bewitching, "Although I'm older than you, an older man will dote on his woman. Moreover, I'm older than you, so I've seen more things than you. If you encounter pain, I'll taste it first. If I encounter joy, I'll share it with you. I'll use my entire life to pamper you, tolerate you, and make you the happiest woman in the world. Susu, will you marry me?"
Mo Xiao's voice was low and hoarse. When he spoke to you in a bewitching tone, you would not be able to resist. At least, Jiujiu was bewitched.
By the time she came back to her senses, she had already nodded her head in disappointment.
After receiving Jiujiu's affirmation, Mo Xiao immediately took out a ring from his shirt pocket and quickly put it on Jiujiu's ring finger.
Seeing the ring that he had carefully picked out for the woman he liked the most, Mo Xiao lowered his head and kissed Jiujiu's finger. Then, he looked into Jiujiu's eyes and asked, "Can I kiss you?"
Jiujiu: "No."
"Rejection is invalid."
The last syllable disappeared between their lips. Mo Xiao directly and forcefully covered Jiujiu's lips. Then, he quickly attacked until Jiujiu's body went limp in his chest.
Feeling Jiujiu nestled in his chest, his chest that had been empty for more than 30 years finally found a sense of fullness.
Mo Xiao lowered his head and kissed Jiujiu's forehead. In a low voice, he said, "What kind of wedding do you like?"
Jiujiu raised her head and looked at Mo Xiao's face. Although it was still handsome, it carried the grace of time. "My household register is with my parents."
Mo Xiao: "Then when are we going to meet your parents?"
Jiujiu smiled faintly. "Mr. Mo, how old are you this year?"
Mo Xiao lowered his head and looked at Jiujiu's small face that was filled with collagen. For the first time, he felt that he was old.
Although unwilling, Mo Xiao still said, "Thirty-eight."
Jiujiu reached out and touched Mo Xiao's stubble. She smiled like a flower and said, "My parents are 48 this year."
Mo Xiao: "…"
Jiujiu stood up from Mo Xiao's arms. She looked at Mo Xiao and said, "Because my ex-husband was too much of a scumbag, my parents said that they have to meet my next husband before they agree. So, Mr. Mo, good luck ~"
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she made a gesture to Mo Xiao to cheer him on. Then she got up and went to the bedroom to do her makeup.
Mo Xiao, who had never thought that there was a problem with his age, deeply felt the age gap between him and Jiujiu for the first time after hearing Jiujiu say that her parents were 48.
Although Mo Xiao was upset because of this matter, he still dutifully sent Jiujiu to the office after she came out of the house. After arranging a time to pick up Jiujiu in the afternoon, he then left.
When he returned to the hospital, Mo Xiao turned on his phone and saw the messages that Mo Chen had sent. After knowing that Jiujiu had asked him to stay last night because of Mo Chen, Mo Xiao immediately sent Mo Chen a message, "In the future, you are not allowed to contact your sister-in-law in private. That house is yours."
After receiving Mo Xiao's reply, Mo Chen immediately said obediently, "Okay, Brother. Thank you, Brother."
After thanking Mo Chen, Mo Chen quickly left. For some reason, he felt that he had found a new way to get rich.
On the other hand, compared to Jiujiu and Mo Xiao's affectionate relationship, An Yi's heart was filled with anxiety. Especially after Lu Heng hummed and hawed and was unwilling to get married directly, she felt even more anxious.
That night, after An Yi and Lu Heng had finished their exercise, An Yi leaned on Lu Heng's chest and listened to the sound of Lu Heng's heartbeat. She said slowly, "Lu Heng, let's get married."
When he heard An Yi say that she wanted to get married again, Lu Heng's brows instantly furrowed. He tilted his head to look at An Yi and felt an inexplicable sense of impatience.
Initially, he had gotten together with An Yi not only because An Yi had served him well, but also because An Yi was tactful. She had always said that she did not want to be with him forever. She only wanted to have him once. She did not want a status, she only wanted to be by his side. But now, she had said that she wanted to get married twice in a day.
When An Yi said that she wanted to get married, it immediately turned her words of not wanting a status and only wanting to be by his side into a joke. Most importantly, when Lu Heng thought about how he had turned from a successful man with a successful career to a jobless and divorced man, all because of An Yi, he could not help but feel a little annoyed with An Yi.
Moreover, Lu Heng felt that An Yi, the woman who had been with him before he was divorced, would not be well-behaved even if they were married. She might even be involved with other men. Hence, it was better to play around with a woman like An Yi. If he really wanted to get married, he would have to find an unmarried woman.
However, he had yet to find a suitable partner. Hence, even though Lu Heng was starting to get annoyed with An Yi, he put on a loving expression and said to An Yi, "An Yi, you know that I can't wait to marry you right now. However, I have just gotten a divorce. If I marry you now, people will say bad things about me."
