Chapter 56 Without Makeup "Come on, come in."Xu Hongdou opened the door and said, and took out a pair of slippers for Chen Mo. "Help Lingling take off her shoes first." Chen Mo stood at the entrance, looked at the bell in his arms and said. "it is good." Xu Hongdou helped Lingling take off her little leather shoes, but the action of taking off the shoes still woke her up. Lingling kicked her calves reluctantly in a daze. It is inevitable that children will be grumpy when they wake up. "Lingdang, now that you're awake, let me give you a bath before you go to sleep." Xu Hongdou quickly took off Lingdang's shoes and whispered to her that she couldn't let Lingdang go to bed with her shoes on. "Don't~~" Lingling buried her head in Chen Mo's arms, hugged Chen Mo's neck and muttered, obviously not awake yet. "What should I do?" Chen Mo had never taken care of a child before and didn't know how to deal with this situation.
"Carry her to the bedroom first. I'll help her wipe her face, hands and feet." "At least you need to change your clothes. You're so dirty after playing all day." Xu Hongdou thought for a moment and said. "Okay, where is your bedroom?" Chen Mo nodded and asked. However, after saying this, Chen Mo felt a little strange. He actually felt a sense of inexplicable anticipation and excitement in his heart. What was going on? "This way." Xu Hongdou's mind was all on Lingling now, so she didn't think much about it and just led the way. In an independent and quiet environment, under the warm light, looking at the graceful figure in front of him, taking off her boots, a pair of white, delicate, warm and well-proportioned legs were exposed in front of Chen Mo. Chen Mo swallowed subconsciously. "Amitabha, Amitabha, form is emptiness, emptiness is form." "All appearances are false, all the beauties of women are just like bones." Chen Mo recited Buddhist scriptures randomly in his mind, trying to calm himself. But soon Chen Mo found that he could not calm down at all, and the more he thought, the more confused he became. Sure enough, if you don't burn incense regularly, it's useless to cram at the last minute. Not pious. But Lord Buddha, this white leg is right in front of me, and you tell me it is fake?! How could I not know whether this is true or not?! When negative thoughts come to mind, ask yourself: Is there any punishment for doing this?
Can you handcuff him? All evil thoughts vanished in the face of these two righteous and majestic questions. Xu Hongdou had no idea what kind of tremendous struggle and fight Chen Mo had gone through in his mind during the short walk from her doorstep to her bedroom. Chen Mo came to the door of Xu Hongdou's bedroom and quickly got rid of all the messy thoughts in his mind. "Put the bell down, I'll go get a towel." Xu Hongdou said to Chen Mo. "Okay." Chen Mo put the bell on the chair. "Lingling, change your clothes before going to bed. Otherwise, you've sweated today and if you don't change your clothes, you'll stink when you wake up tomorrow." Chen Mo coaxed Lingling softly. "Leave this to me. There's water in the refrigerator. You can get it yourself." Xu Hongdou came in with a hot towel and said. "Okay." Chen Mo knew that Xu Hongdou had to help Lingling change clothes, and it was indeed not convenient for him to stay here. Chen Mo walked out of the bedroom and closed the door. Arriving at the living room, Chen Mo began to look around the house where Xu Hongdou lived. Speaking of which, although the two have known each other for a while and Xu Hongdou has been to his place a few times, this is his first time entering Xu Hongdou's house. It's a simple one-bedroom, one-living room layout, slightly smaller than the one next door. Because Jiang Congwen and Li Jinting used to live next door, in a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment. The overall layout is simple and warm, which is in line with Xu Hongdou's style. However, it is not filled with cute pink things as Chen Mo had imagined. Chen Mo sat for a while, felt a little thirsty, got up and opened the refrigerator. My goodness, even though I have a bad stomach, I still drink a lot of beer and soda. Chen Mo shook his head and took a bottle of mineral water. Just as he was about to close the refrigerator, he suddenly noticed a box of black stuff with a layer of white stuff on it. He took it out and saw that it was indeed At this time, Xu Hongdou finally helped Lingling tidy up and let her go to sleep. "what happened?" When Xu Hongdou came out of the bedroom, she saw Chen Mo standing in front of the refrigerator, studying something. "What is this?" Chen Mo pointed at the black box. "Oh, that's Guyuan Paste. Nanxing gave it to me. Her mother made it herself." "When did it happen?" Chen Mo asked. "Well I forgot. Anyway I'll eat something when I remember. What's wrong?" Xu Hongdou thought about it, but couldn't remember. "Look for yourself, it's all moldy and hairy, and you're still eating it." Chen Mo handed the box to Xu Hongdou. "How could that be? When Nanxing brought it to me, I had been putting it in the refrigerator." Xu Hongdou reached out to take it and took a look, and it was true.
"It will go bad if you put it in the refrigerator. How long will it take you to keep it like this?" Chen Mo was speechless. "Not long, just three or four months?" Xu Hongdou herself wasn't sure either. "And your bird's nest and chili sauce are also expired." Chen Mo was worried just now, so he took a quick look at the things in the refrigerator. "Ah? The bird's nest was sent to me by my sister last year, and I ate the chili sauce with instant noodles these past two days." Seeing Xu Hongdou's confused expression, Chen Mo sighed and nodded. "Instant noodles, expired chili sauce, I know why your stomach is upset." "You can come to my place for dinner in the evening." "No," Xu Hongdou was about to refuse. "Don't refuse." Chen Mo interrupted with a frown. "If I knew you were living such a mess, I would have dragged you to eat next door even if I had to." Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Mo's serious expression, and felt unspeakable emotions in her heart, but she still said unconvincedly: "Why are you so fierce? Who are you to control me?" "If you don't come, I will tell Auntie what you eat every day. If you are willing to let Auntie worry about you, you can do whatever you want." "Also, I'm pursuing you now, and I have to be responsible for myself. I don't want to find a girlfriend who is sickly in the future." Chen Mo said as he helped Xu Hongdou clean up the refrigerator and clear out some expired and spoiled items. "When did I become a sickly person?" Xu Hongdou widened her eyes. "If you have such an irregular diet and always eat expired food, you will damage your stomach sooner or later and get sick." "This is called fulfilling my boyfriend's obligations in advance, protecting my girlfriend's health rights and interests, and ensuring the happiness of both of us in the future." Chen Mo said as a matter of course. "Did you ask me? Did I agree? Who allowed you to fulfill it in advance?" Xu Hongdou raised her eyebrows and asked three times in a row. "I am only taking on the responsibilities of a boyfriend, not exercising his rights, so in theory I don't need your consent." Chen Mo kept changing his words, beating around the bush with clever rhetoric. "Heresy." Xu Hongdou was obviously not that easy to fool. What does advance mean? Does that mean I will definitely be your girlfriend in the future? Have you confessed? Did I agree? There's nothing. Do you want to be a hooligan? "Anyway, you can handle it yourself. If you don't come, I will talk to Auntie about your eating problem every day."
Chen Mo didn't care. "You are shameless, you are threatening me!" Xu Hongdou cursed. "How can you get a girl without being shameless?" Chen Mo disagreed. He said that one has to be thick-skinned to pursue a girl. "So please cooperate with me." Chen Mo said with a smile. "You're pursuing me and you want me to cooperate with you?" Xu Hongdou said in disbelief. How do you say such things with such confidence? Who is chasing whom here? "Yes." Chen Mo nodded confidently. Chen Mo cleaned out all the expired and spoiled items in Xu Hongdou's refrigerator, put them in a bag, and took it in his hand to take it away. "Okay, I won't tell you any more." "You are tired too, go to bed early, see you tomorrow." Ever since he discovered that Xu Hongdou had the ability to cheat, Chen Mo no longer planned to "convince people with reason" as before. Chen Mo found that no matter how reasonable his words were, they were useless. Even if Xu Hongdou agreed, she could deny it. What could he do? Chen Mo also began to understand the meaning of the phrase "Don't try to reason with the woman you love." If you like her, then no matter what you say, you won't win in the end. Even if you win, you still have to bear the consequences of her losing. So Chen Mo plans to change his strategy in the future. "Heh." Xu Hongdou was so angry when she saw Chen Mo picking up the things and walking away. So you really don't consider yourself an outsider now? Do you not need to ask her before taking things from her house? Even if it's garbage, it's her garbage! "You don't have to see me off." Chen Mo said to himself, opened the door and was about to leave. Xu Hongdou couldn't help but kick Chen Mo from behind. Bah! I'm giving it to you? I'll give you a kick! At this moment, Chen Mo happened to look back and saw Xu Hongdou's raised legs. The lines were smooth and natural, slender and white, like a carefully carved porcelain, shining, perfectly showing the elegance and strength of women. Very dazzling. "Beautiful legs!" Chen Mo couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised directly. Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, her ears turned red in an instant, and then she rushed towards Chen Mo in a rage. Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Mo immediately stepped aside and closed the door. "Any slower, and I'll kick you to death." Xu Hongdou rushed to the door and said, but did not open the door to chase after him. Chen Mo also heard Xu Hongdou's words outside the door, and couldn't help laughing and sighing:
“It’s really pleasing to the eyes.” "Kacha~" Xu Hongdou suddenly opened the door, furious. She was going to kick that bastard Chen Mo to death today. At this time, Chen Mo was already standing behind his door, waving to Xu Hongdou with a smile. "Good night." "Don't close the door if you dare." Xu Hongdou gestured. Looking at Xu Hongdou's clumsy provocation, Chen Mo smiled and challenged: "You'll know later whether I have the guts or not." Hearing that Chen Mo dared to tease her, Xu Hongdou's beautiful eyes widened and she was about to teach Chen Mo a lesson. But as soon as Xu Hongdou's long legs stepped out of the door, Chen Mo closed the door with a bang. Xu Hongdou stood in front of Chen Mo's house, biting her red lips with her pearly teeth, her chest heaving. After standing for a while, Xu Hongdou went back. But before entering, Xu Hongdou still glanced at Chen Mo's door, obviously unwilling to give in: "Just wait for me. Don't let me catch you next time. Then we'll settle the score together." Thinking of Chen Mo's despicable look just now, Xu Hongdou really couldn't swallow this breath. But today she really couldn't do anything to Chen Mo. She couldn't really bang on the door and challenge him. On the other side, after Chen Mo entered the room, he smiled happily and hummed a little tune: "We ordinary people, I am really happy today~~" Chen Mo quickly put the matter behind him, completely unaware that women's memory for certain things was horrifying. Perhaps one day in the future, when Xu Hongdou collects the debt from him including the principal and interest, Chen Mo will truly realize this. It was late at night and the moon took a nap hidden in the clouds. The early morning sun shines gently into the house, making people feel lazy. Chen Mo lay on the bed, looking out the window. He didn't want to get up, but he also felt that on a morning like this, it would be much better if he could see the person he liked as soon as he opened his eyes. Thinking of this, Chen Mo immediately became motivated. He quickly got up from the bed and stretched. I have to say that a sunny morning makes people feel happy and full of energy. Chen Mo quickly washed up and prepared to go downstairs to buy things. A good morning starts with a loving breakfast. But Chen Mo seldom cooks for himself in the morning. He just buys ready-made soy milk, bread and the like. At most, he boils an egg but doesn't even want to fry it. He is too lazy to turn on the fire and wash the pot. Chen Mo went to the nearest market. In addition to breakfast, he also had to replenish the refrigerator at home. He had already thought about what to cook for Xu Hongdou at noon.
It was less than nine o'clock when Chen Mo came back from a walk and sent a message to Xu Hongdou. "are you awake?" Xu Hongdou replied quickly. "Just woke up." "Open the door." Soon, Chen Mo vaguely heard footsteps and the door was opened by Xu Hongdou. "Why are you so early?" Chen Mo looked at Xu Hongdou, who was wearing her home pajamas, her hair naturally and messily scattered, her hands still rubbing her eyes, and she was really defenseless, revealing her truest appearance in front of Chen Mo. Chen Mo couldn't help but smile. He saw Xu Hongdou before he woke up, but it also meant that Xu Hongdou saw him after she woke up. Not to mention, Xu Hongdou hadn't woken up yet and looked groggy, quite similar to Lingling's appearance last night. "I bought breakfast for you and Lingdang. Please prepare it. Lingdang must be hungry." Chen Mo raised the things in his hand. "Thanks, I overslept." While letting Chen Mo in, Xu Hongdou patted her forehead, trying to wake herself up. Xu Hongdou had originally set the alarm clock and Lingling to come together, but Lingling said she could wash herself, so Xu Hongdou wanted to lie in bed and wait. Unexpectedly, Xu Hongdou fell asleep again while lying there because she was so sleepy. It was the bell that woke her up just now. "Where's Lingling? Is she awake?" Chen Mo asked as he walked in. "She's awake. She woke up a little earlier than me." Xu Hongdou said while yawning, then froze for a moment, suddenly realizing something, with a dull look on her face. "No, you should get out first." Xu Hongdou said nervously, covering her face. "What's wrong?" Chen Mo asked curiously. "I haven't washed yet. I need to change my clothes." "Go wash up if you need to, and go change if you need to. Lingdang and I will eat first." "No, you. I." Xu Hongdou was a little flustered and didn't know what to say. It was the first time that Chen Mo saw Xu Hongdou looking like a panicked little deer, and he couldn't help but said jokingly: "Don't worry, your pajamas are very conservative and cover you up completely. I can't see anything." "As for your bare face, I have seen it, and it's no use for you to chase me away now." "But I have to say, you have a really good foundation. You look good even without makeup, so don't worry." Chen Mo couldn't help but praise. Chen Mo's words did not comfort Xu Hongdou, but reminded her of how she seemed to be rubbing her eye mucus when she opened the door just now. In fact, Chen Mo still didn't know what it meant when a woman appeared in front of him without any makeup or makeup.
Either she doesn't care about you at all or doesn't consider you as a member of the opposite sex. Or if the relationship between the two of them really reaches that point, then you will naturally be able to see her truest appearance when she wakes up. So most of the time, even if you two have just established a relationship, you won’t see your girlfriend like this for a while. As for the few times Chen Mo had eaten together before, he saw Xu Hongdou seemed to be without makeup, but in fact, those were not her true bare face. It is true that there are many more elements than Xu Hongdou's makeup when she is at work, but Xu Hongdou at least applies foundation and a cushion. But Chen Mo didn't understand. He felt that Xu Hongdou looked like she was not wearing any makeup and thought she was not wearing any makeup. "Uncle." Lingling heard Chen Mo's voice and ran over. "Lingling, are you hungry? Uncle brought you breakfast." Chen Mo said with a smile. "I'm hungry." Lingling said crisply. Children get full quickly and get hungry quickly too. "Look, I'll take Lingling to eat first, you just go wash up." Chen Mo said to Xu Hongdou while changing into slippers. Seeing this, Xu Hongdou knew there was nothing she could do. She stepped on Chen Mo in embarrassment and ran to the bathroom. "Uncle, why did my aunt step on you?" Lingling asked innocently. "Because my aunt is shy." Chen Mo said with a smile. "Then why is my aunt so shy?" Chen Mo thought for a moment and said: "Maybe my aunt likes my uncle." "Do I have to step on my uncle's feet if I like him?" Lingling tilted her cute head. "This is your aunt's way of expressing her love for uncle." Chen Mo said gently. "It's your aunt's own unique way of expressing herself only to uncle." "Chen Mo—!" A delicate voice came from the bathroom. The house was not very big, and Xu Hongdou could obviously hear what was happening in the living room. What a person, teaching children in a messy way! Chen Mo put his finger to his lips, lowered his voice, and whispered to Lingling: "Look, your aunt is shy again~~" Lingling also covered her mouth and smiled and nodded, imitating Chen Mo and whispered: "Auntie really likes to be shy~~" Chen Mo and Lingdang looked at each other, and the two, one big and one small, covered their mouths and laughed quietly. "Hehe~~"
Like two kids stealing candy together. (End of this chapter)
