Soon, Xu Momo chose a literary drama and sat on the sofa to watch it while eating popcorn.
Kou Xinglan returned halfway through.
He staggered into the room. His footsteps were light and his face was pale. It was obvious that he did not sleep last night.
As soon as he saw Xu Momo sitting on the sofa, he waved his hand as a greeting.
Xu Rui frowned and looked at him.”
"I told you, I'm going to karaoke with my friends all night.”Kou Xinglan yawned and sat down next to Xu Momo. He picked up the half-drunk orange juice on the table and gulped down the remaining half of the drink.
He glanced at the popcorn in Xu Momo's hand.
"Do you want to eat?" Xu Momo handed it over helplessly.”
Kou Xinglan nodded. He grabbed a handful of popcorn and stuffed them into his mouth one by one like a hamster until his cheeks puffed up.
Seeing his haggard appearance, Xu Momo could not help but say,"I think you should go and sleep for a while.”
Kou Xinglan nodded and yawned with the smell of alcohol. His eyes were filled with tears.
Seeing that he was obedient, Xu Momo suddenly became maternal. "Don't stay up late all the time in the future. It's not good for your health," she said gently.”
"Yes, Sister-in-law cares about me." Kou Xinglan was touched.
As he spoke, he suddenly moved closer to Xu Momo's face, pouted his lips, and said coquettishly,""Come, kiss!"
Xu Momo was shocked.
Xu Rui slapped Kou Xinglan's cheek away and said in a firm tone,""Don't mess around. Go to sleep."
Kou Xinglan, who was drunk and had not slept all night, was even more shameless than usual. He slapped Xu Rui's hand away and glared at him as he said in a nasal voice,""Jealousy, you are just plain jealous.”
Suddenly, the heavy metal rock music of the German Chariot band sounded.
Kou Xinglan lazily took out his phone and answered the call without even looking at the caller ID."Who is it?"
A woman's voice came clearly from the phone.""Who? It's me!"
The voice on the other end of the phone was very shocking. Kou Xinglan was so shocked that his entire body trembled. Only then did he realize that he had accidentally turned on the speaker.
He quickly turned off the speaker and said,"…Aunt Wan."”
Xu Rui lowered the volume of the television.
Although the speaker was turned off, the woman's voice on the other end of the phone was still very clear. At least, Xu Momo could hear it clearly from her position.
"When do you plan to go home?”The woman said," The shop is so busy…You're good. You went out to play again, right?”
Kou Xinglan tried to explain,"I just wanted to come out and relax." All the employees in the company have annual leave."
"You sleep in every day, arrive late and leave early…Aren't you on holiday?”The other party interrupted him."…Did you go look for your scoundrel friends again?”
"No, I'm staying at Brother Ruirui's house.”Kou Xinglan said without confidence.
"Xu Rui's family?" The woman was silent for a moment and lowered her voice, but she could still hear some intermittent fragments.
Xu Momo clearly heard the words " squatting at home "," bad student ", and " autistic ".
Xu Momo couldn't help but glance at Xu Rui.
Xu Rui's gaze was calm as he looked at the television screen. However, Xu Momo knew that he might have heard those words.
"Those are all rumors at home. Brother Ruirui is not like that.”Kou Xinglan said with a frown.
The woman said a few more words before hanging up after saying," Go home quickly."
After hanging up the phone, Kou Xinglan realized that Xu Momo was looking at him. He smiled and explained,""Sorry, that was my stepmother."
…Stepmother?
Xu Momo couldn't help but be startled.
Kou Xinglan yawned and suddenly noticed Xu Momo's unnatural expression. He smiled and said,""Don't think too much. I wasn't abused or anything. That's my stepmother's temper."
Xu Momo didn't know what to say and could only nod silently.
As he spoke, he stood up and staggered into the bedroom, closing the door tightly.
Xu Rui turned up the volume of the television again.
Xu Momo stared at the screen for a while, only to find that she could no longer focus.
"Did you hear everything just now?" she asked Xu Rui.”
Xu Rui glanced at her and nodded slightly. He said calmly,"It's hard not to hear."
Thinking about the loud voice of "Aunt Wan" just now, it was indeed impossible for Xu Rui to not hear it at all.
Xu Momo couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when she thought of the words Aunt Wan had said about Xu Rui.
"Is she prejudiced against you?" she asked.
"I'm not sure." Xu Rui said succinctly. He paused for a moment and said," That person has always been like that. She's a strong woman who runs her own business.”
It seemed like Kou Xinglan was working in Aunt Wan's shop. Xu Momo thought to herself.
Xu Rui probably couldn't watch the movie anymore. He simply paused, ejected the disc, and switched back to the TV show.
The television was broadcasting a very popular soap opera about family ethics. It seemed to be about the war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Xu Momo looked at it and actually felt a little sleepy. She leaned on Xu Rui's shoulder and dozed off.
Xu Rui did not move at first, as if he was afraid of waking Xu Momo up.
Soon, Xu Momo's breathing became even and long. It seemed that she had finally fallen asleep. Xu Rui slowly pulled out his arm that was about to go numb from the pressure, and a piercing pain vaguely came from his wrist.
He frowned and gently put his hand on Xu Momo's shoulder. The girl's soft body leaned against him defenseless. He could even smell the fragrance of her hair.
Staring at Xu Momo's sleeping face for a moment, he suddenly felt a little thirsty. He couldn't help but carefully and gently press his lips against Xu Momo's.
Xu Momo frowned slightly and replied," Yes," but she did not wake up immediately.
Xu Rui seemed to have been encouraged and bewitched. He could not help but kiss her lips again.
Xu Momo finally woke up. She opened her eyes in a daze, and Xu Rui's hot breath blew on her face.
"…Momo." She heard Xu Rui calling her name in a hoarse voice.
This sentence made her tremble slightly as if she had been electrocuted.
She closed her eyes and accepted Xu Rui's kiss.
She felt her body heat and realized that it was Xu Rui's palm.
She felt that it was difficult to breathe, so she turned her head away slightly. Xu Rui's lips pressed against her neck, and a strange numbness surged from the place where his lips touched to her waist. She could not help but moan softly. He chanted.
The two of them lost their balance and fell onto the sofa. Xu Momo was pressed under him, and it was difficult for her to breathe.
"…Xu Rui." She called out his name with difficulty and pulled his messy hair.
Xu Rui lowered his head and panted slightly as he looked at her. The color of his eyes seemed to be deeper than usual.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips again. The two young men's bodies were intimately pressed together. Through the fabric of his jeans, Xu Momo suddenly felt something pressing against her.
She immediately held her breath, her heart beating wildly. It wasn't that she didn't know anything. After all, she was once a fujoshi who had read countless pure love stories...
Xu Rui's breathing suddenly became heavier. Xu Momo wanted to push him away, but she felt dizzy and powerless. She suddenly felt the rough fabric on the hard part of her thigh rubbing rhythmically a few times…She immediately widened her eyes slightly and squeezed Xu Rui's shoulder.
At this moment, Xu Rui suddenly propped himself up on the sofa and sat up while panting slightly.
He stuck one hand in. She went into her hair and rubbed it a few times as if she was in distress, as if she was suppressing some emotion.
He suddenly turned to look at Xu Momo, frowned, and said hoarsely,""…I'm sorry. Did I scare you just now?"
Xu Momo lowered her gaze and shook her head slightly.
Thinking of what had just happened, she suddenly felt especially shy. She even dared not look Xu Rui in the eye.
If he had continued with the earlier unfolding…would he have done something like that?
Thinking of this, Xu Momo's face instantly became hot. She could probably fry an egg.
In order to hide her emotions, she tucked her messy hair, pulled her clothes that were in a mess, and sat up.
"I'll go get you another glass of orange juice.”Xu Rui suddenly stood up and said.
Soon, Xu Rui returned.
"Here you go." He handed the orange juice to Xu Momo.
"How much orange juice do you have?" Xu Momo couldn't help but laugh.
"There are three big boxes." Xu Rui answered seriously.
Xu Momo was surprised.”
"Because I don't like milk, so I drink it for breakfast."”
Soon, the atmosphere between the two returned to normal, as if the scene just now had never happened.
At noon, Kou Xinglan was still asleep. Orange juice and popcorn couldn't be eaten, so Xu Momo was very hungry.
"What do you want to eat?" Xu Rui thought for a moment and asked.”
That was the only thing Xu Momo wanted to eat when she was very, very hungry.
"Egg Fried Rice." she said.
"Egg Fried Rice?" Xu Rui repeated," Are you sure?"
"Yes." Xu Momo said," Actually, I like my mom's Golden Egg Fried Rice the most.”
"You're really easy to raise." Xu Rui smiled.”
His tone was as if he was saying that his pet was "especially easy to take care of". Xu Momo was instantly touched and felt that she was especially cute.
However, Xu Rui said,"Unfortunately, I don't know how to make Egg Fried Rice."”
"It's okay. I know what to do.”Xu Momo volunteered.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the kitchen, intending to make the legendary 'Golden Egg Fried Rice' which was the simplest yet most complicated dish.
Because there was no leftover food, they could only use freshly made rice to stir-fry.
Twenty minutes later, the rice was ready.
Xu Momo scooped out the rice and placed it on a plate. Then, she poured olive oil into the pot and heated it up.
Xu Rui helped her separate the egg white and egg yolk, and only the egg yolk was placed in the container to be beaten. Xu Momo put the rice into the pot to heat it up and flip it.
Xu Rui stirred the egg mixture skillfully. Soon, he prepared the egg yolk.
"Let me do it." he said to Xu Momo.
Xu Momo took off the apron and handed it to Xu Rui. Xu Rui tied the apron and poured the egg yolk into the pot to continue stir-frying.
Looking at Xu Rui wearing a pink floral apron and standing by the stove, Xu Momo couldn't help but imagine the happy life of a male lead inside and a female lead outside…
Hmm, this seemed pretty good. Xu Momo thought to herself with a snicker.
Very soon, the glistening yellow Egg-Fried Rice was ready.
"Wow, not bad!" Xu Momo quickly praised. You have the potential to be a chef."
Xu Rui, who was praised, couldn't help but smile."Try it."
Xu Momo had just taken a bite, but before she could swallow it, she heard Xu Rui suddenly say,"…Ah, I forgot to add salt."
Xu Momo almost choked.
Alright, it seemed that this future Chef Xu still needed some time to slowly adjust. Teach.
At this moment, the fragrance of the fried rice finally succeeded in waking a certain guy from his sleep.
After eating the fried rice, Kou Xinglan went back to his room to sleep again. He probably wouldn't wake up until it was time for dinner.
In the afternoon, the two went to the nearby supermarket to buy a bunch of snacks, most of which were Xu Momo's favorite.
After returning home, the two of them continued to watch movies and eat snacks. They actually passed the entire afternoon like this.
That night, Xu Momo received a call from He Xiaofei. She was asking about the recovery of her foot injury.
"I'm already so good that I can go to class on Monday.”Xu Momo said.
"Count how many times you've been hospitalized this year. I reckon you've accumulated years of bad luck.”He Xiaofei joked.
"It's really possible." Xu Momo was helpless.
"Right, let me ask you a question." He Xiaofei's tone suddenly became serious." Maybe I'm wrong. If I'm wrong, don't laugh at me.”
"What is it?"
He Xiaofei paused for a moment before saying,""Is Xu Rui…Lux?”
"... Yes. That's right."
He Xiaofei didn't say anything, and Xu Momo couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Are you angry?" Xu Momo asked carefully.
"Nonsense!" He Xiaofei suddenly said. Of course he was angry! You've been hiding such a big thing from me.”
"I'm sorry." Xu Momo whispered," I just…felt that…there was no right time to tell you.”The more Xu Momo spoke, the less confident she sounded.
He Xiaofei was silent for a moment before she suddenly said coldly,"I even wrote 30,000 words of pure love and fantasized about him and Mao Da. How are you going to compensate me for my imagination and dreams?”
" Uh..." Xu Momo suddenly felt that something was wrong." What did you say?”
He Xiaofei continued," Unless you treat me to Haagen-Dazs and give me a dozen autographs from Lux, I'll never forgive you. Do as you see fit."”After saying that coldly, she immediately hung up the phone.
