If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1612: His Embrace, Warm as Such (5)
"Dad, why are you always so fierce? If you keep being this way, don’t expect to use my ID when going to hotels." Xiao Mo said casually.
"You! You’ve grown! I didn’t do anything bad using your ID!" Xiao Father hurriedly explained.
Xiao Mother’s face darkened, she grabbed Xiao Father’s ear: "What?! You booked a hotel room? With whom? Why don’t you dare to use your own ID? Explain it to me clearly."
"No, it’s not what you think. Last time it was because of a client... and then my ID wasn’t with me, it was collected by you. Kid, explain this properly for me!"
Xiao Mo looked unaffected: "I’m not really sure, I only know that last time you used my ID to book the room for several days."
Xiao Father was anxious: "Tell your mom clearly, don’t you know? I was discussing business with a client!"
"Dad, I think Chuqing is pretty good, could you put down your prejudices and listen to my heartfelt words a bit more?"
Xiao Mo sat down calmly, opposite the sofa.
"..." Xiao Father felt his son was just an inscrutable ice king! Can’t afford to provoke him!
Obviously, last time he used his son’s ID was for official business, and now Xiao Mo wouldn’t help him explain!
"Xiao Yifei, you actually hid such a big thing from me? How long ago did this happen?" Xiao Mother exploded.
Xiao Father had no choice but to compromise, giving Xiao Mo a glance: "That woman isn’t bad, we can discuss this slowly."
"What woman?" Xiao Mother thought he was talking about the woman from the hotel room, "Explain clearly to me, if you can’t, just stand out in the rain tonight!"
"Hmm." Xiao Mo unhurriedly responded, "Old Xiao, she actually has many merits, it’s just that you haven’t seen them, you assumed her father’s conduct had issues, so she must have them too."
"Yes, yes, yes, I was shortsighted! I can learn more about her." Xiao Father quickly replied.
"Are you planning to accept her or not?" Xiao Mo asked directly.
Xiao Father’s ear was almost torn off, he dared not provoke Xiao Mother, but if Xiao Mo didn’t explain, he couldn’t clarify anything!
Now Xiao Mo was threatening him!
If he’d known, he would’ve used a subordinate’s ID rather than his scheming son’s!
Key point is, this happened three years ago, and Xiao Mo still remembers!
"I accept, I’m the first to accept." Xiao Father hurriedly compromised.
"Hmm." Xiao Mo smiled, looking very satisfied.
Xiao Mother blushingly asked: "You accept what? Which woman did you book a hotel room with? Explain clearly to me."
"Mom, Dad’s business trip to C City that time, he forgot his ID and just borrowed mine for a bit. Don’t overthink it, nothing happened, I wouldn’t risk using my own ID to attract trouble. Otherwise, if my future wife asks, I wouldn’t be able to explain."
Xiao Mother looked at Xiao Mo skeptically: "Really?"
"Hmm." Xiao Mo drank some tea, "If you don’t believe, I can help you check the records. Besides, I think dad’s at an age now, where he doesn’t really have the energy for such antics."
"You!" Xiao Father was almost driven to madness by this son.
He was quite clever when he was young, didn’t expect to be played around by his son now.
And this son knew how to capitalize on his weaknesses, with a really impressive memory!
He nearly forgot this business trip matter!
Xiao Mother glared at Xiao Father, warning: "If you dare to fool around with women outside, I’ll make sure you won’t be a man for the rest of your life!"
Xiao Father sweated profusely, knowing Xiao Mother would definitely follow through.
So, he’d been tricked by his own son.
"Mom, it’s not that serious. Look at the gifts in the tote bag, would you like to try the lipstick?" Xiao Mo again sipped his tea, calm as ever.
Xiao Mother, still dizzy from anger, grabbed the tote bag and took a look.
Indeed, there were many items she wanted but hadn’t yet bought, and some she’d wanted for a long time but still hadn’t purchased.
"Why buy so much, such a waste." Xiao Mother pursed her lips.
"When a son buys gifts for his mom, no amount is a waste, as long as you like it." Xiao Mo smiled.
"Still have some taste, didn’t inherit from your dad." Xiao Mother snorted coldly. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
"..." Xiao Father was speechless, how did this involve him again?
"Actually, Dad has a good heart, he’s just not very knowledgeable, given our family’s in the building material business, he doesn’t often deal with such things." Xiao Mo didn’t forget to speak a few good words for his dad.
Xiao Father suddenly felt overjoyed, this son still had a bit of conscience.
But then Xiao Mo added: "Dad, actually I know, you secretly quite like Chuqing, I saw the messages you sent me last night."
Xiao Father’s eyes widened, when did he send messages to Xiao Mo!
Dammit, he was almost completely fooled by this son!
"What? Didn’t we agree that no one should proactively talk to this kid?!" Xiao Mother looked at Xiao Father warily.
Xiao Father wanted to defend himself, but Xiao Mo didn’t give him the chance: "Mom, we’re all family, there’s no overnight resentment. Dad texted me last night saying he actually quite likes Chuqing, but he’s afraid you won’t agree. He really liked the cigarettes Chuqing gave him."
Xiao Father looked at Xiao Mo disdainfully, when did Xia Chuqing ever give him cigarettes!
"What? Xia Chuqing gave you cigarettes?" Surely, Xiao Mother exploded again, giving Xiao Father a look, "What else are you hiding from me? Didn’t we agree, that woman couldn’t step into our Xiao Family’s door?!"
Xiao Father felt caught in the middle, his face alternating between red and white.
He wanted to defend, but he knew Xiao Mo had a thousand ways to successfully mess with him.
So, he thought for a bit, and decided it was better to stand by Xiao Mo’s side.
After all, if he could settle things with his son, surely he could manage Xiao Mother, knowing that Xiao Mo always had more ideas...
As for that woman, whatever, if the son likes her, it’s fine.
For future matters, who knows, maybe Xiao Mo’s just having a whim, and would break up in a year or so.
"No, no, definitely no hiding from you."
Xiao Father waved his hand, seeking help from Xiao Mo.
"Hmm, Mom, listen to me." Xiao Mo leisurely said, "Dad is timid, he wouldn’t dare lie to you, just wanted to wait for your anger to subside before telling you. He does quite like Chuqing, after all, she’s quite simple and strives to improve, whether in studies or work, she excels."
Xiao Father quickly agreed: "Yes, that child is indeed not bad."
Xiao Father was completely devastated, but not at all! He knew absolutely nothing about Xia Chuqing!
"Damn, Xiao Yifei, did you take the wrong medicine? What did you say to me earlier? You’re changing your mind?" Xiao Mother shouted.
"No, no, calm down." Xiao Father said, "Actually, it’s not entirely unthinkable, at least, we can now have a peaceful discussion as a family."
