?Chapter 383: Chapter 383: I’m a Father Now! Chapter 383: Chapter 383: I’m a Father Now! Mo Family, dining room.
After Mo Chen and Qiao Ruoxin entered the dining room, all eyes converged on them.
The first to speak was Mo Tian, “Son! Come, give Daddy a hug.”
Mo Tian stood up, walked over to Mo Chen, and embraced his tall figure with a sentimental look on his face, “Son, well done! You’re finally going to be a dad. When I was your age, you were already three years old and knew how to swear.”
“…” Mo Chen’s handsome face darkened, his lips tightly pressed together.
Mo Tian burst intoughter, patting his shoulder, “That’s good! I’ve been looking forward to the day you’d be a father, and it finally came.”
Standing to the side, Qiao Ruoxin couldn’t help but want tough.
Mo Chen ignored his father, pulled out a chair for Qiao Ruoxin to sit down, and then took the seat next to her.
“How did the hospital check-up go, did you see the baby?” Grandma Mo asked impatiently.
Before she could answer, Mrs. Mo spoke up in her stead, “Mom, it’s only around three weeks, still early. I’ll take her for a prenatal check-up in two weeks and then we’ll be able to see.”
“That’s wonderful, the Mo Family hasn’t had fresh blood added for so many years, and now another little one ising.” Grandma Mo, always bored, just wanted to hold a sweet grandchild.
Grandpa Mo smiled, “If it’s a boy, it would be nice to be like Mo Chen, and if it’s a girl, she should be like this little girl, good-looking.”
“But let’s hope she doesn’t inherit that stinky boy’s temper, I really can’t handle another version of him,” Mo Tianined involuntarily.
Mo Chen’s mouth twitched involuntarily, and he said in a deep voice, “Dad, do you really find me that unsatisfactory?”
“…” The dining room fell silent.
Mo Tianughed awkwardly, “No, not at all unsatisfactory, just that it would be better if that bad temper of yours improved a bit.”
“It won’t change.”
The answer came so crisply and straightforwardly.
Mrs. Mo couldn’t help but say with augh, “Do you think you have a great temper? You can’t change, and you expect Mo Chen to? But, I must set a condition for you, and that is once the child is born, you stay away from the child! I don’t want my little grandson’s first words to be swear words either!”
“Mo Chen’s first words as a child were swear words?” She was stunned.
Mrs. Mo nced at her son, “The more I think about it, the more angry I get. Other people’s children’s first words are ‘daddy’ and ‘mommy,’ but he had to learn swear words right away.”
Immediately, the room erupted withughter.
The man’s expression darkened, his handsome face tensed.
Was this some kind of public criticism meeting against him?
Qiao Ruoxinughed non-stop, then suddenly met the man’s dark gaze, and herughter ceased abruptly.
“Is it funny?”
“Not really… it’s just that the stories of your childhood are quite adorable.”
Mrs. Mo sternly looked at the father and son, Mo Tian and Mo Chen, “I’m seriously warning you both, when my grandson is born, you’re not allowed to swear in front of the child!”
Mo Tian: “…”
Mo Chen: “…”
Grandpa Mo: “Right, it’d be best to keep the two of them far from the child, a cute little baby with a mouth full of curse words, what kind of image is that?”
Grandma Mo: “I haven’t held a child in so many years, I miss that feeling so much. I remember when I used to hold Mo Chen, he was particrly naughty, always running around and never sitting still on myp for even a few minutes.”
Qiao Ruoxin alsoughed out loud, the atmosphere lively and joyous.
It felt as if she had already be a part of this family.
…
After dinner, the grandparents insisted they stay the night, and Qiao Ruoxin no longer refused.
At that moment, Mo Chen apanied her for a walk in the garden.
Thinking back to the scene in the dining room, she couldn’t help butugh again, enjoying the warm and cozy feeling.
Mo Chen nced at her and said in a deep voice, “What are youughing at?”
“Nothing much, just that their stories of your childhood were funny, how could you have been so adorable as a child and grown up to be so irritable.”
Mo Chen frowned slightly, paused in his steps, and looking down at her he said, “Actually, I hope our child turns out more like you.”
“Why?”
“I have a bad temper,” he answered truthfully.
She chuckled, “Then we should just have more children? One like you, one like me.”
“No need.”
????
What did she just hear? When a woman says something like that, shouldn’t a man be happy? He actually said no need?
Qiao Ruoxin: “What do you mean no need?”
Mo Chen’s slender fingers caressed her face, slowly moving to the back of her neck, rubbing back and forth: “His woman only gave birth to one, why should my woman have to give birth to many?”
“Who are you talking about?”
“Your Uncle Mo.”
“…”
True to his Mo family pride, always so petty, just like her father.
Laughing, she said, “Didn’t you say Uncle Mo did it because he’s afraid your mom will spoil the child too much?”
“Hmm, I’m also afraid my woman will spoil the child.”
Her heart got ruthlessly hit by wild throbs again—this damn man only let slip sweet nothings in such unexpected moments.
Qiao Ruoxin opened her arms and embraced the tall figure of the man, revealing a shallow smile: “Mo Chen, you’re really nice.”
The man raised an eyebrow: “That’s all it takes to be nice?”
She sighed softly: “Ah, for a straight man to do as much as you have is already pretty good. I’m not very demanding, just keep liking me like this, but you can’t force yourself on me like you did that morning again, I was really scared.”
Though he had apologized countless times and soothed the Little Ghost over and over, he still patiently replied, “Hmmm…”
“Mo Chen, do you like boys or girls?”
She remembered asking this question before but forgot what Mo Chen’s answer was.
The man’s deep voice sounded in her ear: “I like both.”
…
Late at night, in the bedroom.
Qiao Ruoxiny sleeping next to him.
The man lifted the nket and took his phone to the terrace alone.
He sat on the outdoor sofa, lit a cigarette and ced it between his lips, then opened the WeChat group chat with his brothers.
Mo Chen: [@everyone]
Bai Junyan: [What are you doing up sote? Don’t you have a sex life?]
Mo Chen: [Hmm, no.]
All the brothers: [????]
Ji Haochuan: [Mo, are you confessing? Are you breaking up? You think you could really handle that?]
Lu Siheng: [I advise you to think carefully! If Qiao Ruoxin really leaves this time, you may never be able to get her back.]
Bai Junyan: [Would you really let other men touch our darling Qiao sister?]
Gu Mocheng: [In a word, don’t court death.]
A look of disdain crossed Mo Chen’s handsome face, and his slender fingers quickly typed out a line.
Mo Chen: [I’m gonna be a dad!]
All the brothers: [????????]
Gu Mocheng: [Damn you! Get lost!]
Bai Junyan: [Hahaha I’m dying ofughter. Our ‘Super Daddy Club’s’ no.2 baby is booked. You guys better hurry up, my project starts on schedule by the end of next year. I don’t care if you borrow kids or have kids by then, but you’re all joining!]
