Rich Contract: Kiss Goodbye, Paranoid

Xia Mochen looked at An Xueying at this moment, looked at the smile on her face, and felt that she seemed very different from usual.It's probably because... now she laughs, not to deal with it or perfunctory, but from the heart.

An Xueying suddenly covered her mouth and hiccupped, not very loudly, but she still couldn't help blushing, lowered her head and said, "...Well, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it."

"It's just the two of us here, don't worry so much, it's nothing."

"Pay attention to etiquette in front of others, and don't need to be so rigid in front of me."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter."

……

In a split second, he concocted a lot of rhetoric, but he didn't say a single word.

"Well... But I ate a whole tiramisu at this time, it's a bit too much... I don't think I need to eat lunch." An Xueying rubbed her stomach that was a little stuffed, "However, it's still Thank you, Nancy's desserts are delicious, in fact, you can try it too."

"I'm not interested."

"Oh, by the way, do you have time now? I... want to say a few words to you."

Xia Mochen sighed, his eyes were completely questioning An Xueying's IQ: "...Then what am I doing with you now?"

"Didn't you... come here to check the results?"

The eyes questioning IQ went one step further: "...do I look like such a boring person?"

"...Anyway, I'm afraid to waste your time, so I'll ask first... Since you have time, I'll tell you directly."

"...if you save the nonsense, you'll save even more time."

"Actually... I wanted to tell you about this when I just came back yesterday, but... yesterday's situation was a bit sudden, so I forgot about it."

When mentioning what happened yesterday, Xia Mochen couldn't help frowning: "...Don't mention what happened yesterday, just get down to business."

"Ah... Actually, what I want to talk about is about my mother. I don't think... there's any need to go to a nursing home, right?"

"Then tell me what you think is unnecessary. If you simply say that, I will think that you don't care enough about your mother, or that you don't know enough about the nursing home."

"Actually, my mother is recovering pretty well after the operation, and... I'm afraid that my mother...would feel uneasy living in that kind of place..." As she spoke, An Xueying couldn't help but lower her head.

In fact, she also thinks that the nursing home is very good, whether it is the environment, service, equipment, or location, it can be said that it is almost perfect.The main reason why An Xueying was so entangled, embarrassed, and unable to explain to her mother was her own reasons.

"Is it possible to feel at ease only by living in an ordinary rented house? Huh, it's really a pitiful and pathetic pariah mentality. But normally, with good conditions, who wouldn't enjoy it? In my opinion, you are simply Not for your mother's sake, but to make excuses for yourself."

An Xueying looked at Xia Mochen, but his overly strong and serious gaze made her feel a little unable to look at each other, but after a while, she couldn't help but lower her head.

"The reason why you say that is because you lied to your mother about marrying me. Your mother doesn't know that you married into a rich family, so you can't explain it to her."

An Xueying raised her head in surprise: "How do you know? You... have you met my mother?"

But based on An Xueying's understanding and observation, Xia Mochen didn't seem like someone who would take the initiative to meet his mother-in-law.As he said, in his eyes, he may not necessarily regard her mother as his own mother-in-law.

"I naturally have my information channels and ways of obtaining information. You don't have any control, and you don't have to ask. But please remember, if you want others to know, unless you don't do it yourself, you should do less if you are guilty."

"I... it's not a bad thing, it's just... you know what kind of operation my mother just had. She can't stand any stimulation for a short time. If she knows that her daughter sold herself to treat her illness, you What would she think? Can she bear it?"

Xia Mochen frowned unhappily, and muttered in a low voice: "What do you mean by 'sell yourself', this is too much..."

An Xueying sighed: "This is the truth. I have nothing to hide in front of you. I didn't even know what you looked like before I got the certificate from you. My purpose of marrying you is also very pure, just to Collect medical expenses for my mother. But this matter must not be let my mother know. In any case, I hope you can agree to my request. "

When listening to her say these words, there were two times during his period, his eyes flashed a little bit of surprise, and a little playful, but he didn't interrupt her, and after listening to her, he didn't change the topic, but his tone was unexpectedly Slightly softer.

"It's normal for people to have selfishness. Even if sometimes they hide their family members for their own selfishness, it's justifiable. But I don't think you look like a person who can't distinguish between priorities. You think, your selfishness has nothing to do with Which is more important than your mother's health?"

An Xueying lowered her head, frowning and hooking her fingers in confusion.

"You are so eloquent and eloquent. Is it difficult for you to find an excuse? As long as you think about it, you must have a way to persuade your mother. Besides, what kind of choice is better for your mother is up to you very clear."

An Xueying sighed, as if she had finally given up on the entanglement, she raised her head and smiled at Xia Mochen: "No matter what, I have to thank you, I didn't expect... You would actually come forward to deal with my mother's affairs in person, which made me think It was a bit of a surprise, of course, but I appreciate your kindness."

Xia Mochen turned his head to the side unnaturally: "... I don't know who kept saying that we are a family. Since we are a family, is there any need to say such outrageous things?"

It's rare to hear him say such kind and nice words, and An Xueying smiled even more happily: "Even if it's a family, when you should be grateful, you still have to express your gratitude, so as to maintain the freshness and enthusiasm among the family."

"Freshness and enthusiasm?" Xia Mochen looked at her puzzled, "What kind of theory is that..."

"In short, it is a theory that has been verified by practice, and it is really useful."

"Since you say that, it's meaningless to just say it. You might as well show it with practical actions."

An Xueying suddenly sighed and said, "I originally wanted to thank you, but something like that happened yesterday..."

"...Didn't you tell me not to mention what happened yesterday?"

"Well, anyway...they cancel each other out."

"...Do you think that you are doing math problems in your life? Do you even have positive and negative balances?"

"It's okay if you say it's a math problem, because... sometimes it is true. Thank you when you should be grateful, but you have to admit your mistakes when you make mistakes."

"...I don't want to argue with you."

"Ah, by the way, it's almost lunch time, I'll go to the kitchen and bring you lunch."

"Hey—wait a minute."

"Huh? What's the matter?" An Xueying turned around.

"I just want to say..." He turned his face away unnaturally, and he was hesitating in his speech, which was not like the usual him at all, "I just wanted to say, ahem...you can stay and eat together at noon today... ..."

He actually... offered to have lunch with her?An Xueying's eyes were full of surprise: "You..."

"Shut up, don't talk too much!" As soon as she opened her mouth, he interrupted in a hurry, as if afraid that she would say something that would embarrass him and make him lose face.

An Xueying also saw through his thoughts, she didn't say anything, she just said "yes" in order to save face for him.

Unexpectedly, the first time she dined alone with him would be in his room, An Xueying was still a little nervous and reserved.

It was easy for Xia Mochen to see: "Why are you so cautious? What, you don't know what to eat when you eat with me?"

"No! There's nothing... I'm just... I'm just afraid that you'll be picky again, so I want to be as cautious as possible. I won't give you many excuses to find fault with you." An Xueying wasn't completely sure. She was making excuses for her nervousness, and what she said was true.

Xia Mochen couldn't help frowning: "... Do I love to find faults as much as you said?"

"...You are so embarrassed to keep saying that I am not self-conscious. It seems that you are half a catty... How much do you love to find faults and criticize yourself, and you don't know it?"

"..." Xia Mochen pretended to be ready to eat, but he only realized in his heart how much he liked to pick on her before.

"Ah, by the way, there is one thing, I'd better tell you before eating."

"What's the matter, tell me now."

"I'm going to see my mother in the afternoon."

Xia Mochen didn't even think about it, it was like a conditioned reflex, and immediately said with an unhappy face: "...Didn't you say that you would spend a whole day getting along with each other?"

An Xueying was taken aback by his reaction: "I... originally thought so, but... I was a little worried about my mother, and wanted to see her again."

"...Didn't you just see her yesterday? Go again today? What's there to see? What's there to worry about?" After he had finished speaking, Xia Mochen suddenly realized that his reaction seemed a little too intense.

Before he could say the excuse he made for herself, An Xueying suddenly said, "Could it be...do you really want me to stay with you? Are you reluctant to let me go?"

"Can you stop being so narcissistic!" Xia Mochen said with staring eyes, but just turned away after finishing speaking, unable to tell whether it was a guilty conscience or... a guilty conscience.

An Xueying held back her laughter, thinking of this possibility, she was still a little elated, so she took the initiative to take a step back: "Then how about...I will accompany you today, and then go to see my mother tomorrow afternoon?"

"...I didn't say I wanted you to accompany me, and I didn't want to compete with your mother for time, but since you have already agreed before, then your time today should belong to me, and I shouldn't change my mind at will. Besides , it’s because of what you said.” The more he spoke, the more confident he became.
