Free Web NovelXiao Li thought he had given her a multiple-choice question, but he didn't expect Ice Cube to turn it into a ranking question.
He was the one who asked the question.
But looking at Ice Cube in his arms, her eyes hazy as she said they should start with the lowest strategy, then the middle, then the best, he still couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.
The eloquent Xiao Li was suddenly at a loss for words, but he had to give Ice Cube an answer, then he couldn't help but lean in, wanting to bite her moist lips.
You tell me, isn't that answering with her mouth?
"Sister, I want another kiss."
"Didn't we already find the answer? Why are you still..."
"The ice is a bit tasty."
"Wait a moment, mmph..."
In summary, regarding where the imperial edict was hidden and how to resolve Madam Gu's desire for her daughter, the two, after careful and thorough discussion, finally found the perfect answer.
The process was very stimulating, and the two even had a verbal disagreement.
A moment later, Ice Cube, whose chest was already filled with something, felt suffocated and couldn't breathe. With a 'pop', she pulled her lips away, gasping for air as if she were drowning.
"That's strange, wasn't the imperial edict missing? How did it suddenly reappear on its own?"
Li Mo's nose brushed against the hair by her ear, as if very curious about this question.
"I filled it out, but I don't know how to give it to you."
Ice Cube's red lips had just been thoroughly warmed, perhaps they were broken, unable to harden at all.
She didn't understand why, perhaps it was because the law of conservation of softness and hardness had failed.
As everyone knows, only one mouth on a person can be hard.
"When was it filled out?"
"Your birthday..."
Ying Bing had just recovered a little, but his gradually burning gaze made her head spin again.
She also didn't know what was wrong with the childish ghost today; though he used to be lustful, he would only go so far as to be presumptuous, and then turn back into his childish ghost self before she could react, leaving her unable to get angry.
Today, he seemed to be getting more and more presumptuous.
No wonder he didn't eat much dinner.
So he was waiting for this time to eat ice.
"Ha... no more kissing."
"But I'm still not full."
"..."
...A while later, Madam Gu was washing clothes by the stream in the courtyard, completely unaware of the fierce verbal dispute that had occurred upstairs, or that he had eaten something good that only he could eat at the moment. ƒreewebɳovel.com
A moment later, footsteps came from behind her.
"Son, are you washing clothes too? Perfect, give them to me."
She turned around and saw Li Mo holding an ice pop in one hand and two changed clothes in the other; the clothes seemed to be already a little wet.
"No need! I won't trouble my mother!" Li Mo's face instantly became serious.
Gu Xueqin looked at her son speechlessly: "You've troubled me enough usually."
Li Mo righteously declared: "From a young age, my parents taught me to do my own things. I'm this old, do I still need to trouble my mother to wash my clothes? What would the Sect teachers think then? What would the heroes of Jianghu think? Mother, don't mention this again."
Saying that, he bit the ice pop, squatted down, and meticulously scrubbed the clothes.
"?"
Gu Xueqin couldn't figure out what was wrong with her son; was washing clothes such a big deal?
Let alone washing clothes, whenever her son was home, he was as lazy as a pig. Every morning after she tidied up, by evening it would inevitably become a pigsty, as if automatically refreshed. Is his ideological awareness really that high now?
Her son must have... grown up.
Gu Xueqin thought this, but seeing her son's face with the ice pop in his mouth, she felt he didn't look mature or steady at all. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
After all, he licked the edges, circled, and sucked the tip of the ice pop.
"Why do you keep scrubbing that one spot? Are you not going to bother with the other parts?"
"Oh, oh."
Listening to his mother's advice, Li Mo guiltily flipped the clothes over.
"You strange little brat... Did you communicate with Xiao Bing'er just now?"
"How ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) did we communicate?"
"First, I had a fierce verbal dispute with her, discussing three strategies: best, middle, and lowest. Perhaps she thought what I said made sense, because she didn't talk much after that."
Gu Xueqin paused, her eyes blank, and for a long time, she couldn't understand what her son was talking about.
Did they argue?
But it didn't seem like it... She felt strange inside, but she still said earnestly: "Xiao Bing'er grew up in our family since she was little, with no one to rely on. You must not bully her."
"..."
Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief. He never lied to his mother.
Fortunately, his mother didn't understand the truth. Even as an experienced person, she probably couldn't imagine what young people are like now... Xiao Li listened attentively: "Mhm, Mother is right."
"You need to take it to heart." Gu Xueqin glared at him, feeling that she was being perfunctorily treated.
"Mother, you and Father help me deliver something to Zhennan King, okay? It would be better if you two went."
"Don't change the subject, I'm telling you..."
His mother straightened her face, about to continue speaking, when a golden-yellow object suddenly appeared in her sight.
She quickly realized what it was, took it, and examined it carefully. Seeing the date at the bottom, her brows instantly relaxed, as if she had seen a treasure.
"It's actually at this time..." Gu Xueqin murmured to herself.
Li Mo smiled: "Didn't expect it, did you? Surprised, aren't you?"
"Mhm."
"That's right, it's..."
"Isn't this around New Year's? Double happiness, good, good, good..."
"?" A small question mark popped up above Li Mo's head.
"What, you don't like this day?" Gu Xueqin's face hardened, thinking to herself that this brat was somewhat ungrateful.
Li Mo: "..."
No, it was indeed New Year's, but it was also his birthday!
Where was his maternal love? Was it taken away by some extra daughter?
"Mother, that's my birthday, Mother?"
"Mhm, Happy New Year. I'll go discuss it with your father."
His mother hadn't even finished washing clothes, but she hurriedly clutched the imperial edict and went back to her room to share the good news with Old Li. Soon, the couple's laughter could be heard from the room.
Li Mo helplessly: "Really..."
After grumbling a few times, Xiao Li looked up at the moon in the sky and sighed.
Today, it would probably be another sleepless night.
Young people just have abundant Yang Qi, unable to sleep all night long... Meanwhile, upstairs.
Ying Bing changed into a new set of clothes, fed the wet clothes into the boy with a large head's belly, and then also took a sweet ice pop for herself.
Is ice really that delicious?
Well, the taste was indeed good. This one was made from hundred-flower dew, tasting fragrant and sweet.
But as she ate, she paused, realizing the ice pop was being eaten very quickly.
Because, unconsciously, she had learned a very new way of eating ice... She didn't know who taught her the posture.
"【Congratulations, Host. The next ranking time is approaching. To avoid falling behind your pace, this System has updated the reward list again.】"
"【Surprised, aren't you?】"
Ying Bing: "?"
Although the System was always a bit off, at least what it said before didn't raise any red flags.
Now it just talks about rewards right away, not even bothering to pretend anymore?
PS: Happy New Year, dear audience! Muah!
