Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 852: Deeply Rooted Love (297)

Xu Mohan couldn’t have predicted she would make this move.

He didn’t react for a moment.

Jun Xiangyi’s car passed by Nan Yuesheng’s door and drove straight into the house.

Seeing the lights off in the house, she was puzzled, "Aunt isn’t home..."

The car parked in the garage, and the two got out to take the bucket from the trunk.

"I just got back, so if you leave now, it’ll be quite a coincidence. Why don’t you sit in my living room for a while?"

He nodded once.

Jun Xiangyi entered the house with him following, switched on the light, and said, "Make yourself comfortable."

She put away the fishing rod, cleaned all the fish thoroughly, and put them in the refrigerator.

She came out after washing her hands, only to find he had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Jun Xiangyi stepped forward, instinctively quieting her steps, bending over to look at him closely.

She had to admit, while asleep, he appeared completely unthreatening.

Just as she was about to call out to him, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Startled, she hastily straightened up, but lost her balance and tilted towards the coffee table. Xu Mohan grabbed her hand and pulled her over.

Thus...

A dramatic scene unfolded.

Jun Xiangyi toppled directly into his arms.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Realizing what had happened, Jun Xiangyi immediately sprang back.

Xu Mohan watched her face turn bright red, and before he could say a word, she vanished from his sight.

...

"Madam, His Highness has already returned."

Nan Yuesheng, holding an umbrella, turned back, "Really?"

She hurried inside, and at the doorway to the living room, she indeed found him sitting there.

"I was waiting for you at the door. Where on earth did you go?"

"Went fishing at Nanshan."

"Madam, His Highness caught a lot of fish."

Nan Yuesheng sat beside him, "Did you spend the whole day fishing?"

"Yeah, had dinner at the restaurant over there." Xu Mohan asked, "What did you do today besides your skin care?"

"Not much, just shopped a bit and bought some clothes."

"I’m tired, shall we go upstairs and rest?"

"Okay."

Back in the bedroom, he went to take a shower. Nan Yuesheng, already showered, changed into her pajamas and lay in bed waiting for him.

When Xu Mohan came out, she said, "Mohan, I want to have another child with you."

"Didn’t you say that childbirth was too painful, and you didn’t want to go through it again?"

"Now I want to have another one." After he lay beside her, Nan Yuesheng nestled in his arms and said, "Let’s have a daughter this time."

Xu Mohan held her hand, but he didn’t share her enthusiasm for having another child.

"Isn’t just the one enough?"

"You don’t want another one?"

"Right now, I really don’t."

The reason Nan Yuesheng brought up having a second child was that ever since the incident with Ningyi, she felt a kind of barrier between her and Xu Mohan. Although they still shared the same bed and were husband and wife, their emotions weren’t quite the same as before.

So she thought having another child might restore their relationship to what it used to be.

However, she never expected that Xu Mohan didn’t want a second child.

She didn’t know what to say, so she stayed silent.

Xu Mohan, indeed tired, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

But she wasn’t sleepy.

She lay with her eyes open for a long time before falling asleep.

As the couple slept, Jun Xiangyi found no such peace.

An unexpected action unsettled her for a long time.

On the anniversary of the Long Group’s founding, key employees gathered at a five-star restaurant under the Long Group for a feast, and Long Yubei’s attendance was mandatory.

A lot of people came tonight.

Because it was a rare grand gathering, the company also had a camera recording the event.

At Long Yubei’s large table, more than twenty people were seated.
