Chapter 130: Chapter 127: We Are Pure
Looking up at the Bone Marrow Cleansing Tree, the small pink flowers were still blooming, but there was still no visible change. The fruits and vegetables planted in the soil had completely withered, and even the fruit trees in the distance hadn’t escaped the calamity.
Only the fruits and vegetables in the space warehouse remained unchanged, though their quantity was gradually decreasing. If the land still couldn’t support planting, Uncle Bo’s Home Cooking would soon face a supply cutoff!
Sigh! I need to come up with an idea, but tomorrow is Brainiac’s birthday—let’s deal with it in a few days!
She walked into the large bedroom in the prefab house, took the watch off the white desk, and secretly rejoiced. Taking it out carefully again, she caressed the smooth crocodile leather strap, wondering if he would like it.
...
At 6:30 the next morning, Li Si quietly got out of bed, tidied herself up, and prepared to impress.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, Mrs. Leng was already standing outside, refreshed, seemingly about to knock.
Li Si stuck out her tongue playfully, "Good morning, Auntie!"
Mrs. Leng smiled warmly at her, "Do you have class today? What are you doing up so early? Go back to sleep a bit more!"
"Not today! Auntie, you’re up so early! Please come in!" Li Si awkwardly tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. In truth, she did have class, but guessing that Leng Mochen was probably going to the company, she couldn’t bear to leave him by himself, hence her lie.
Mrs. Leng followed her inside and glanced around the room. The hotel bed was neatly made, and she nodded internally, pulling Li Si’s hand warmly, "Look at this skin, still so supple! It makes me want to say that youth is on your side! What skincare products do you usually use?"
Though Mrs. Leng held some reservations about her, she couldn’t help but admit that Li Si’s skin was radiant and poreless. Combined with her youthful outfit, she appeared even younger. Mrs. Leng asked offhandedly, almost instinctively.
Li Si smiled shyly, "I mostly use the hydration series from the company my brother owns. Auntie, your skin is inherently good; if you want to improve its texture, you should give these products a try!"
Li Si took a closer look at Mrs. Leng’s complexion. Aside from minor crow’s feet and a slightly yellowish tone, she didn’t have major issues—likely due to frequent visits to beauty salons at her age, resulting in decent skin.
Mrs. Leng’s eyes lit up, "Is that so? When Mochen comes by later, I’ll ask him about it!"
She felt delighted, realizing the cosmetics from her son’s company had such effective results. Initially, when the old man had temporarily handed over the Leng Group to Mohao, she had some complaints. Especially after Mochen moved to North City, she often sighed deeply!
But now, seeing her son regain his health and pursue something he loved, her heart suddenly felt satisfied!
At this moment, Leng Mochen, dressed in a black suit, poked his head into the open door and overheard the conversation, "Ask me about what?"
Seeing a strand of hair on his face, Mrs. Leng instinctively reached out, but Mochen reflexively dodged and removed it himself, creating an instant awkward atmosphere.
"Well, Mochen, we were just chatting about your company’s cosmetics. I heard they’re very effective! When will you gift Mom a trial set?"
Feeling a pang in her heart, Mrs. Leng reflected bitterly—this was her son, her own son, who had become estranged because of a woman named Qian. Even a simple touch made him pull away. Would it always be like this from now on?
She sneaked a glance at Li Si and sighed inwardly. Never mind—as long as he’s happy. Family background doesn’t matter as long as she wholeheartedly treats my son well; I’ll accept it!
"Of course! Why is everyone up so early?" Mochen had initially intended to check on the little girl before his mother woke up, but now found the two women chatting away so early. He simply couldn’t understand the dynamics of women! His eyes sneaked a few winks at Li Si.
Li Si glared at him speechlessly—what kind of game was he playing? Flirting right in front of his mom? Shamelessly winking and making faces?
"Ahem... Auntie, why don’t we head to the restaurant for breakfast?" Li Si warmly pulled Mrs. Leng along.
"Good idea! Mochen, have you eaten yet?" Mrs. Leng agreed happily, her concern shifting to her son.
Mochen replied coldly, "You two go ahead. I’ll wait in the room."
The two went up to the restaurant on the upper floor. There were many breakfast options available, and Li Si chose a simple meal of steamed buns and black rice porridge. For Mrs. Leng, she picked up her requested sandwich and milk.
Once seated, Mrs. Leng sighed, "Li Si, you saw it, right? Mochen still holds it against me! I suppose I can’t blame him. Who told me to act poorly back then? Look at me, caught up talking about these things! Today is his birthday. What’s your plan?"
"What do you think, Auntie? He’s probably heading to work at the company. If we’re celebrating, it’ll likely be tonight!" Her planned surprise was to have a romantic candlelight dinner and exchange gifts. But with three people, how would it work?
Mrs. Leng’s eyes glimmered with inspiration, "Why don’t you come with me to visit his company?"
Li Si froze for a moment but quickly responded, "Sure!" Feeling immense pressure—it was tough. The company employees didn’t yet know about their relationship; should they go public? It was a knotty problem!
"Do you often go to his company? And do you know Du Xue, the girl working there?" Mrs. Leng’s lips curled slightly as she mentioned Du Xue.
"I do! Secretary Du isn’t just beautiful; she’s also highly competent!" Li Si tried her best to choose suitable words, her mind racing yet unable to catch hold of anything.
"You don’t know this, but Du Xue’s mother and I were classmates in elementary school. That’s why I always felt secure with her working under Mochen. Otherwise, you know how it is—with boys like him who are handsome and come from a good family, there are always girls with ulterior motives!" Mrs. Leng spoke proudly, while Li Si silently marveled.
"Lucky for me, this girl has good character. She always shows concern for me, calling me now and then to chat and share news. If Mochen had any intentions for her, her mom and I would’ve paired them together already!
Oh, why am I telling you all this? Li Si, don’t take it to heart—what I’m saying is all from years ago! Now that you and Mochen are together, just get along well, aim for marriage and a baby soon. I’m still in good health and can help take care of the child in the future, won’t that be nice?"
At this point, Mrs. Leng’s gaze unconsciously drifted toward Li Si’s belly with a delighted expression—as if there was already a baby in there. Li Si froze entirely, her cheeks flaming red, wanting to shout out loud: "We’re just a pure couple! Purer than purified water, okay?"
"Eat up! Mochen is waiting for us!" Mrs. Leng finally changed the topic, successfully rescuing the near-crumbling Li Si.
After breakfast, back in the hotel room, Mochen sensed something different in her expression. "Little girl, what’s the plan for later?"
"Oh, Mochen, Li Si just mentioned earlier that she wants to take me on a visit to your company. You’re not against it, are you?" Mrs. Leng quickly interjected, giving Li Si a knowing look.
