The rent collector became stronger, and he took in a young, energetic woman every day.

Chapter 76 The untidy milk foam on the sofa was discovered!

As evening approached, the noise in Chen Mo's room finally subsided.

Chen Mo leaned against the headboard, looking at the girl in his arms with long pinkish-purple hair spread across his chest and her cheeks flushed.

He glanced at the darkening sky outside the window and smiled.

"Hurry up and tidy up in the living room, otherwise it will be hard to explain when they come back."

Xiao Rou lay on his chest, her fingers tracing circles on his collarbone, a smile playing on her lips, her voice soft and gentle, carrying a lazy, contented tone.

"If it's hard to explain, then let's not explain. In the end, it's you, Mo-ge, who will suffer the most."

Chen Mo rolled his eyes and lightly patted her shoulder in an annoyed tone.

"I'm going to be worked to death by you guys sooner or later."

Xiao Rou chuckled, looked up at him, her round eyes sparkling, and her voice light and cheerful.

"Then I won't come tonight, so you'll have one less person to deal with, Brother Mo."

Chen Mo rolled his eyes again, but the corners of his mouth curved up, and he gently pushed her waist with his palm.

"Alright, stop joking around and get to work."

Xiao Rou slid out of his arms with a grin, stepped barefoot onto the floor, and quickly picked up the clothes scattered around the bed, putting them on one by one.

She walked to the dressing table and tidied her hair in front of the mirror, using her fingers as a comb to smooth her long, pinkish-purple hair. She patted the wrinkles on her dress, turned it left and right, and made sure there were no flaws.

Then he turned around, winked at Chen Mo, opened the door, and walked out.

Her light footsteps echoed in the hallway, followed by the soft thud of someone sitting down on the sofa in the living room, and then a brief silence.

Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps and the chattering laughter of girls could be heard outside the building entrance.

The sound of a key being inserted into the lock; the door opened.

Xiao Lu was the first to walk in. As soon as she entered, she kicked off her shoes, stepped barefoot on the floor, and flopped onto the sofa with a satisfied sigh.

Coco followed behind her, also taking off her shoes, and nestled into the other end of the sofa, curling up her two legs, which were covered in black stockings, into a ball.

Sweetie and Xiaoning walked in one after the other.

Sister Nan walked at the very back, her steps neither hurried nor slow.

Tongtong was the last to come in. Her black low ponytail hung down her back, her peach blossom eyes were bright, and a faint smile played at the corners of her mouth.

A laugh.

She sat down next to Xiaorou, her two bare legs crossed and placed diagonally, her posture quiet and obedient.

Xiao Rou was already seated on the sofa, her long, pinkish-purple hair draped over her shoulders. She held a glass of water in her hand, sipping it slowly, her expression as natural as if nothing had happened.

Chen Mo also left the room and came to the living room.

The girls all turned to look at him.

Xiao Lu lay sprawled on the sofa, one leg draped over the armrest and the other resting on Coco's knee, looking at Chen Mo and saying, "Brother Mo, the renovation is progressing very quickly today. The contractor said the hard furnishings will be finished the day after tomorrow, and the furniture will arrive the day after that."

Her voice was clear and crisp, with a hint of pride in her reporting her work.

Coco nodded in agreement, her round eyes shining. "Several potential tenants have come to inquire. This time I was very strict with them, checking their ID cards, asking about their workplaces, and taking photos for my records."

Chen Mo leaned against the wall in the corridor, arms crossed, listening to their excited reports, and nodded with a smile.

"Thanks for your hard work."

The little deer rolled over on the sofa, put one leg on the armrest, and started making noise again.

"It's no trouble at all, Mo-ge. How's it going on your end? What's the situation at the flower shop?"

Xiaorou put down her water glass and recounted everything that had happened at the flower shop that afternoon.

She said Lu Man's father came to cause trouble again. He was drunk and smashed a lot of things in the store. Later, Mo Ge said a few words to him, and he ran away in fright.

She also mentioned that the transfer agreement for the flower shop had been signed, and the shop now belonged to Brother Mo. Lu Man would stay and continue working there.

Xiao Rou spoke softly, but her words were clear and logical, and she explained each part in detail and vividly.

The girls listened with great interest, afraid of missing a single word.

At the end of her story, Xiaorou mentioned that after the man ran away, Luman stood at the door to see them off.

The deer let out a long breath, its voice carrying a lingering fear of having been there.

"That was close. If it weren't for Brother Mo, that flower shop might have really been taken over by those people."

Coco nodded, crossed her arms, and looked at him with a touch of emotion in her round eyes.

"Sister Lu Man has it tough too. She runs such a big shop all by herself and has to deal with that kind of father."

Sweetie whispered a reply, her voice soft.

"Now that Mo-ge is here, she can plant flowers in peace."

Xiao Ning nodded, the two rosy cheeks still on her round face. She moved her lips and said, "Brother Mo is the best."

Tongtong didn't speak, but when her peach blossom eyes swept over Chen Mo, the light in them brightened even more.

Chen Mo smiled, just about to say something.

The little deer shifted its position on the sofa, resting its hands on the sofa, and touched something soft in its palm.

She exclaimed "Huh?" and looked down, her fingers prying out a thin wad of white fabric from the gap in the sofa cushion.

She held the object up to her eyes and unfolded it.

It's a milk foam topping.

The white lace fabric, so thin it was almost transparent, was edged with a delicate openwork trim, gleaming softly under the living room lights.

The style is youthful, the fabric is high-quality, and the workmanship is exquisite.

The little deer paused for a moment, blinked its round eyes, tilted its head to look at the thing in its hand, and its expression changed from confusion to curiosity.

The curiosity quickly turned into a sudden realization, tinged with a mischievous understanding.

The air in the living room fell silent for a moment.

When Xiaorou saw the white blob, the color drained from her face instantly, then returned suddenly, turning her face as red as if someone had splashed a bowl of tomato juice on her.

Chen Mo also looked over, his gaze falling on the white lace. His lips twitched slightly, and his expression was somewhat strange.

Xiao Rou is such a careless person.

It wasn't even cleaned properly!

Xiao Rou coughed lightly, clearing her throat. The redness on her cheeks hadn't completely faded, but she had already tried to regain her composure.

She reached out and pulled the white lace back from Xiao Lu's hand, saying calmly, "I just took a shower and left it on the sofa; I forgot to take it back."

The little deer tilted its head and looked at her, the corners of its mouth slowly turning up, revealing a mischievous smile.

Coco leaned over from the sofa, her round eyes curving into crescents, her smile carrying a tacit understanding.

Of course.

The two looked at each other, then simultaneously looked at Xiaorou, drawing out the last syllable of their words in unison.

Is that really the case?

Xiao Rou put her hand holding the milk foam behind her back, straightened her back, raised her chin slightly, and looked at him calmly.

"Of course that's how it is, what else can we do?"

She said it with a straight face.

She would be even more perfect if you ignored the blush that almost extended to her earlobes.

Little Deer and Coco exchanged another glance, their smiles widening, but neither of them pressed for more information.

Chen Mo leaned against the corridor wall, arms crossed, watching this scene. A slight smile played on his lips as he changed the subject, asking, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
