In Qin Mo's silence, Shen Nian forced a smile and said: "I...I know."
Shen Nian is not a fool and cannot understand what it means that Qin Mo does not want to see her mother.
Shen Nian's heart was full of sadness and disappointment, and she could no longer laugh. "I'll go out for a while, and you can have a good rest..."
"Shen Nian." Qin Mo called her in a deep voice, "I'm not ready yet."
"What do you mean?" Shen Nian was confused.
Qin Mo lowered his eyes and said calmly: "I used to be uneducated, just a gangster, and I was in jail. Your mother wouldn't like such a son-in-law."
When Shen Nian heard what he said, she quickly said: "It doesn't matter, my mother just doesn't know your advantages. When you get along for a long time, she will naturally change her view of you..."
Qin Mo raised his eyes and looked at her, "Shen Nian, I'm not as courageous as you think. Give me a little more time."
Shen Nian looked at him blankly, a little incredulous.
She always thought that Qin Mo was very courageous and fearless of heaven and earth. It turned out that he could be timid sometimes. This was an answer that Shen Nian had never thought of.
"I...I'm not forcing you." Shen Nian considered the words and slowly explained, "It's just that we have been married for such a long time and haven't met our parents yet. My mother doesn't know you as a son-in-law, so it's a bit unreasonable. Moreover, , I don’t want to hide it from her anymore, she has always been worried about my life-long affairs.”
"I understand." Qin Mo said.
Shen Nian pursed his lips and continued softly: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, and don't rush this matter. Let's talk about it when you are ready."
Qin Mo whispered: "I'm sorry."
Shen Nian shook her head, feeling less uncomfortable. She believed Qin Mo's words, as long as he didn't want to see his mother.
The days are long and they will have the opportunity to meet each other in the future, so there is no rush.
Shen Nian was no longer sad, and Qin Mo's tense heart relaxed. He didn't want to see her sad, so he chose to lie again.
He was not her real husband, and her mother was not his real mother-in-law, so there was no need to meet him.
Moreover, the capital already knew that he was alive. He was destined not to stay in Mingshi for long, so there was no need to bother.
…
Qin Mo suffered all flesh wounds. Lu Shichuan asked the doctor to give him the best medicine. Since he was young and strong, the wounds quickly grew and healed.
On the other hand, Shen Nian, although there was no visible damage on the outside, his body was still a little weak due to the internal injuries he suffered from jumping off the cliff, and he had to slowly nurse himself back to health.
However, it is possible to be discharged from the hospital.
No matter how good the environment of the hospital is, it is not as comfortable as her own home. Shen Nian was very happy to learn that both of them met the conditions for discharge. She was quickly discharged and returned to her and Qin Mo's warm home.
Because no one had taken care of it for more than half a month, a thin layer of dust had fallen on the house.
Shen Nian immediately wanted to clean, but was stopped by Qin Mo, "I asked the hourly worker to come over and clean, please stop working."
"This little bit of work is nothing. It doesn't require part-time work." Shen Nian felt bad about money. Her and Qin Mo's money didn't come from the strong wind. If they could save a sum, there would be many places where they would need to use the money in the future!
But Qin Mo insisted not to let her do anything, and said in a low voice: "Be obedient."
"But..." Shen Nian wanted to say something more, but Qin Mo took her hand and pulled her out, determined not to let her work.
"Leave it to them here, let's go out for a walk." He was as strong as ever, but he had the right measure and strength in his hands to neither let her break free nor hurt her.
Shen Nian couldn't resist him and could only sigh helplessly, "Okay."
The two of them went out together. It was sunny and windy outside, which was a rare good weather.
Because Qin Mo's injury was not completely healed, it was inconvenient to drive. For safety reasons, he raised his hand to hail a taxi and pulled Shen Nian into it.
Shen Nian asked confusedly: "Qin Mo, where are you taking me?"
However, Qin Mo did not tell her the answer right away. Instead, he kept it secret and said, "You will know after we get it."
Shen Nian couldn't help but laugh, "What? It's so mysterious."
After the car stopped, Qin Mo pulled Shen Nian out of the car and said, "We're here."
Shen Nian looked up and his eyes suddenly widened, "Isn't this the largest home buying center in Ming City? Qin Mo, why did you bring me here? We don't have money to buy a house."
Qin Mo chuckled, "Who said you have to buy something when you come here? Can't we just take a look?"
Shen Nian thought to herself, although they don't have money to buy a house now, they can still get a proper understanding of the house prices and work hard!
She was convinced instantly and walked in with Qin Mo. As soon as she entered the door, the sweet-looking sales lady greeted her warmly.
"Welcome, Mr. and Mrs., are you here to view and buy a house? We have many properties and apartment types here, and you will definitely be able to find a house you are satisfied with..."
Shen Nian waved his hand and was about to say, "We're just taking a look," but Qin Mo was the first to speak: "Let me introduce you to the best real estate here."
The sales lady immediately introduced her in a eloquent manner. Shen Nian opened his eyes wide, secretly pulled Qin Mo's hand, and whispered to him, "Qin Mo, why did you let others introduce you? We don't want to buy a house. …”
Qin Mo also replied in a low voice: "It doesn't cost anything to listen to it."
"But..." Shen Nian felt a little sorry for this. After all, the sales lady worked hard to introduce it to them, but they had no intention of buying a house at all. Isn't this a waste of other people's time and energy?
Just when she was struggling, an unflattering and mean female voice sounded, "Xiao Li, don't waste your efforts. Do you think they are dressed like they can afford a house?"
"Sugar cubes..." The sales lady named Xiaoli looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Fang Tang was wearing the same uniform as Xiaoli and walked over on high heels with an arrogant attitude, "We are the most high-end home buying center in Ming City, and the properties we sell are also the most high-end. Not everyone can afford it. Not to mention you, Shen Nian?"
"Whether I can afford it or not, it's none of your business." Shen Nian recognized Fang Tang's identity at a glance. He was her college roommate. The two had many disagreements during school, and even more so after graduation. We had been interacting with each other, but I didn't expect that we would meet at the home buying center now.
It’s really a narrow road between enemies.
"Shen Nian, Shen Nian, your grades were better than mine, your popularity was better than mine, and you were better than me in every aspect." Fang Tang spoke with emotion, but his tone was full of disdain, "But now it seems that you are not doing well. How about it, he’s just a small designer. By the way, I heard that your husband was in prison before and now works as a driver for others? I don’t know how he dares to come here to look at houses with a salary of several thousand yuan a month.”
