Lan Yujuan was concentrating on her work when she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

I felt as if there was a pair of eyes silently watching me from behind.

She subconsciously stopped what she was doing and turned to look over.

"What are you looking at?"

Lan Yujuan was startled and quickly reached out to cover the screen, her face turning red instantly.

It turned out that she wasn't mistaken; there really was a pair of eyes watching her from behind.

"When did you wake up? Why didn't you say anything?"

Chen Mo, who was just fast asleep, had unknowingly woken up and sat up.

Lan Yujuan was both anxious and angry. She pulled out a pillow from her arms and threw it directly at him.

What's the difference between peeping at her writing her first draft and peeping at her writing her diary?

Chen Mo easily took the cushion, touched his nose guiltily, then turned to the side, propped himself up on the daybed, and put on his slippers.

"I just woke up, so I didn't see much."

"There was a small problem with a project last night, so I worked a little overtime."

"Besides, I know your pen name and book titles. If I want to read them, I can just search for them."

As Chen Mo spoke, he got up and walked towards her, innocently handing the pillow back to her.

Lan Yujuan took the pillow, feeling a little embarrassed, as if she had wronged an innocent person.

"Since you didn't sleep much last night, why don't you lie down a little longer?" she whispered as she placed the cushion behind her.

Chen Mo stretched and said as he walked out:

"It's okay, I've had enough sleep!"

As Lan Yujuan closed her laptop, she wondered: What is his standard for being well-rested?

There was no alarm clock and no one woke him up, so how did he suddenly wake up?

To her surprise, just as she shut down her computer and was about to go to the living room, she heard the sound of a key opening the door.

Immediately afterwards, Mr. and Mrs. Lan returned with their daughter, carrying large and small bags of groceries.

Lan Yujuan almost thought that Chen Mo woke up because he heard his parents returning.

However, upon further reflection, she realized she was overthinking it!

The soundproofing in the old neighborhood is pretty good. Chen Mo's hearing shouldn't be that good, right?

As soon as she entered the door, Lan's mother saw a large pile of gifts in the room.

"Oh, is that Chen Mo?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Mo, who was sitting on the sofa, stood up properly.

"Hello, Uncle and Aunt!"

When Lan's mother saw Chen Mo, she immediately beamed with joy.

"You silly child, why did you bring so many gifts when you just came over for a simple meal?"

However, Lan's father glanced at the gifts beside him and then secretly glanced at Chen Mo.

His expression was indifferent, and it was hard to describe what he was feeling.

When Lan Xiaoman saw Chen Mo, her eyes lit up instantly, and she rushed over with quick strides.

"Uncle, you're here so early today!" The little girl grabbed Chen Mo's finger and headed towards her private play area in the living room.

Chen Mo bent down and picked up the little guy, rubbing his head as he said:

"Come on, let's see what gift Uncle brought you today?"

The little one, hands tucked inside, craned his neck to look, "What is it?"

Judging from her tone, she didn't seem very excited; instead, she seemed eager to finish opening the gift and quickly go play other games.

Lan Yujuan, who was standing next to her, was drawn to the attention and gradually became curious.

What kind of gift could Chen Mo, such a straight man, bring for his daughter?

The living room fell silent the moment the gift was unwrapped.

The next second, the little guy's excited scream almost lifted the roof off.

Startled, Lan's mother rushed out of the kitchen with a stalk of celery in her hand.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The little one exclaimed excitedly, "Grandma, look!"

"A magic wand! High heels! And a princess dress!"

Seeing how much the little guy liked it, Mr. and Mrs. Lan quickly put down what they were doing and came over to watch.

"Wow, it's so sparkly and pretty!"

This is a complete Elsa cosplay outfit, even Lan Yujuan was stunned!

This gift was absolutely perfect for the little guy.

Lan Yujuan watched as her daughter held the magic wand, clearly delighted with it.

She immediately sat on the floor, kicked off her shoes, and tried on the diamond-encrusted high heels, finding it utterly unbelievable.

"Chen Mo, what made you think of giving her this?"

Not to mention Chen Mo, even Lan Yujuan herself didn't expect it.

She had seen other slightly older girls wearing similar dresses when she took her daughter downstairs to play before.

But at that time, my daughter didn't show any particular fondness for it.

Chen Mo scratched his brow, the smugness in his eyes almost impossible to hide.

"I wasn't sure either, so I asked Qin Shuyi."

She said that little girls as young as three to five years old all like to play with this.

No sooner had she finished speaking than the little one came over, clutching her dress and begging Lan Yujuan to change her into a new one.

"Mom, wear this!"

Having no other choice, Lan Yujuan had to lead her daughter back to their room.

"Okay, let's change it now!"

Just as the mother and daughter turned around, Chen Mo handed them another gift box, tied with a pink bow.

"Wait a minute, there's also this."

The little guy immediately opened it up, let out an excited scream, and then ripped the roof off again.

Wow! So beautiful~

Inside the gift box was a princess crown to match this blue princess dress.

Not only was the little one happy, but even Lan's mother and Lan Yujuan, who were standing next to her, showed a hint of amazement in their eyes.

No little girl could resist such a beautiful princess dress and an exquisite diamond crown.

Lan Yujuan led her bouncy daughter back to her room and dressed her up from head to toe.

When the mother and daughter came out again, they had both changed their clothes.

Lan Yujuan changed out of her pajamas, put on the dress she wore when she went out, and even put on some light makeup.

The little one was dressed as a princess from head to toe.

Once outside the room, even her walk became more reserved, her neck held high like a little swan.

When the mother and daughter came out of the room hand in hand, Chen Mo was having tea with Lan's father.

Hearing the noise at the door, he turned his head casually and glanced in Lan Yujuan's direction.

However, when that smiling face suddenly came into his view, Chen Mo, who was not prepared, was momentarily stunned.

Just now, Lan Yujuan, who was wearing home clothes and had her hair casually tied up, gave him a comfortable and reassuring feeling.

Just looking at her, even if she didn't do anything, would gradually relax his tense nerves.

It's not like he hasn't seen beautiful women before; Chen Feifei was extremely beautiful, the kind of beauty that's breathtaking and appealing to both men and women.

But when Lan Yujuan appeared with light makeup and a dress, her gentle and serene beauty still instantly amazed him!

At this moment, a thought that even he himself found absurd flashed through Chen Mo's mind:

If I really had to choose a woman to spend the rest of my life with, she would be perfect!

She's the only one who's suitable!

"Cough, cough!"

The coughing sound from beside him instantly brought Chen Mo back to his senses.

A flicker of panic crossed his eyes, then he pretended to pick up his teacup and take a sip.

The next second, the person froze!

Is the cup empty?

But Chen Mo, having seen many grand occasions, immediately and calmly praised:

"Mmm, good tea!"

Looking up, he saw Teacher Lan holding a fairness cup, preparing to serve him tea, and she too looked astonished.

He hadn't even had time to pour his tea yet, so what was he drinking?
