Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: I Like Daughters

Due to inertia, Xia Qiaoan's body was sinking, and she could only resign herself to fate and closed her eyes.

However, the heavy fall she had expected didn't happen.

Xia Qiaoan fell into Li Mochen's arms.

Clearly, she was here, and Li Mochen was at the door. How did he manage to catch her in such a short time?

Xia Qiaoan raised her head, and in a moment of illusion, she seemed to read something called worry in Li Mochen's eyes.

After this eye contact, the two of them quickly separated.

Xiao Lan reacted from her daze and quickly ran over, checking Xia Qiaoan up and down, front and back.

"Mom, I'm fine," Xia Qiaoan calmed her emotions and comforted Xiao Lan.

After Xiao Lan repeatedly confirmed that she was okay, she was relieved and patted Li Mochen's shoulder hard, "It's good that you have an eye for it! I was really scared just now, but An'an, I only knew fear, and I seemed to be unable to move my legs. I didn't see when Mo Chen ran over, and when I reacted, you were in his arms! It seems that Mo Chen still cares about you."

Xiao Lan said, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve up; she just loved to see the happy couple.

Li Mochen had a blank expression, "I was afraid she would fall and blame it on you."

"Blame it on Mom would be good! You, you'll ruin your mouth sooner or later!"

At this time, Xia Wenwen wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

These three people were talking to each other as if they were reminding her that she was an outsider?

She couldn't lose to Xia Qiaoan again!

"Oh, sister, are you okay? You're always so careless! Just like when you were fixing your phone, and you accidentally let Auntie's phone get a virus!"

This matter had been three years ago, and no one mentioned it. Then she would remind the old lady how she was tricked by Xia Qiaoan back then!

Xia Qiaoan really couldn't refute this sentence because it was a fact.

"Miss, is it too much for you to say such things in front of me?"

"Ah? Auntie, I didn't, I just... it's just that my sister often makes this kind of careless mistake, I said it in a moment of anxiety."

"Heh. Are you mocking me for being old? That I can't tell right from wrong, that I can't tell who is who?" Xiao Lan's face fell.

"No no... I didn't mean that." Xia Wenwen felt like she had shot herself in the foot!

"I heard you mean exactly that. Mo Chen, is this secretary of yours qualified?"

It was over, her job was in danger!

"Get out," Li Mochen said coldly.

"Mr. Li..." Li Mochen brought her here, but he didn't help her say a word!

Li Mochen was impatient, "Don't you understand?"

Xia Wenwen's eyes were sour; her self-esteem was really scattered all over the place!

And Xia Qiaoan, she was standing to the side, watching this good show with a good attitude!

Xia Qiaoan choked, "Understood, Mr. Li, I'll go first. Auntie, goodbye. But I really didn't mean that, I just..."

Xiao Lan, even with her good temper, was about to lose it, "I won't see you off."

Xia Wenwen rushed out the door, and her stumbling figure was as ridiculous as could be.

Seeing Xia Wenwen run out the door, Xiao Lan's face finally relaxed a little, "An'an, don't take these words to heart, come, sit down and eat. Let me see what you made for me."

Xia Qiaoan's heart was touched again.

No matter how Li Mochen explained to Xiao Lan back then that he had deliberately designed her, Xiao Lan still insisted on letting her into the house.

Xiao Lan said that she had seen countless people in her life, she wouldn't misjudge anyone, she liked Xia Qiaoan, she knew Xia Qiaoan wasn't a bad child.

But today, in order to meet Li Mochen, she still used this old lady.

Xia Qiaoan's nose was sore, "Mom, I heard you haven't been sleeping well recently, so I specially made honey-fermented lotus root balls."

"If you and Mo Chen are doing well, Mom's sleep will naturally be better."

"Mom..."

"You two, you've been married for three years, and you haven't let me hold a grandson. How many more years can Mom live? You two don't accompany me, and having a grandson to accompany me would be good too," Xiao Lan sighed from the bottom of her heart, looking at her old girlfriends, each of them with a full house of children, how could she not be anxious!

The most important thing was, with more children, her son's marriage would have another layer of protection, how could she not be anxious!

"Why not a granddaughter? I like daughters," Li Mochen, who had been silent, suddenly said something out of the blue.

Xia Qiaoan was used to it; Li Mochen was a dark-hearted person, and he would say whatever would make her uncomfortable.

The divorce agreement was already signed; what boy or girl!

He was just trying to increase her sense of guilt towards Xiao Lan!

Xia Qiaoan didn't get angry; after all, she still had to have a good talk with him.

"A granddaughter is good too, it's good. What do you think, An'an, otherwise, we'll have a few more, and we'll have both grandsons and granddaughters," Xiao Lan asked happily.

Xia Qiaoan was trapped there and had to go along with it, "It's all good, Mom."

"Hahaha, okay, it's all good. Eat quickly, the dishes are getting cold. I'm really happy today, except..."

"Right, Mo Chen, don't bring women to my house in the future," Xiao Lan glared at him fiercely.

Li Mochen took a sip of soup, "Just a driver."

"Not even a driver is allowed."

"Mmm." He responded with a hoarse voice.

The meal was happily finished, and Xiao Lan personally sent the two into the room before she was willing to leave.
