After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

The little guy woke up early; he didn't get enough sleep last night.

After arriving in Beijing, I was incredibly excited at the thought of seeing my dad, whom I hadn't seen for several days, at lunchtime.

Back in the guest room, she ran back and forth inside and outside, jumping up and down on the bed.

In the end, Lan Yujuan forced him to sit down and eat breakfast obediently.

After breakfast, I was made to sit obediently on the bed and watch some original English cartoons.

While the little one wasn't looking, another family quietly turned off the room lights and drew the blackout curtains.

Before long, the little guy fell asleep on the bed.

Looking at her daughter's sleeping face, Lan Yujuan couldn't help but yawn.

After setting the alarm, I lay down to take a short nap and catch up on some beauty sleep.

The mother and daughter snuggled together and soon drifted off to sleep.

Lan Yujuan slept fitfully, her mind hazy and confused.

She was even a little disoriented when she woke up to the knocking on the door, unsure of where she was.

It took her a while to regain consciousness before the repeated knocking on the door brought her back to her senses.

She finally remembered that she had brought her daughter to Beijing.

After realizing what had happened, Lan Yujuan quickly put on her shoes, got out of bed, and tiptoed to the bedroom door to open it.

She was very curious as to who could be knocking on her door at this hour.

In order not to disturb her daughter's rest, she decisively opened the door, but only cracked it open.

Unexpectedly, the door to the opposite guest room also opened at the same time.

Through the crack in the door, Lan Yujuan could just see the back of a tall woman standing outside Chen Mo's room.

This figure, standing between her and Chen Mo, completely blocked their view.

"Did you need something?"

Across the corridor came Chen Mo's familiar deep voice.

For a moment, Lan Yujuan was extremely embarrassed.

Opening the door and going out doesn't seem right, but closing it immediately doesn't seem quite right either.

"Chen Mo, there's an event tonight, and we'd like to invite you as a special guest."

"I wanted to ask you first, are you free?"

Lan Yujuan's fingers tightened around the door frame, and her knees began to feel weak.

Just from this conversation and their voices, it's easy to tell that the two people on the other end are very familiar with each other and probably have a close relationship.

Chen Mo paused for a moment, clearly weighing his options, before replying:

"For things like this in the future, contact my assistant directly, or find the person in charge of the Beijing branch."

"I'm too busy, I don't want to participate anymore."

Chen Mo's unspoken meaning was simple and easy to understand: Since you've invited me this time, I'll go!

However, I don't want to participate in such activities, and I won't do it again.

Sure enough, the woman's voice became noticeably more excited after hearing this.

"So, you're agreeing?"

"I'll send the location and time of the event to your phone now. Make sure you're not late!"

As she spoke, the girl looked down and took out her phone from her bag. She skillfully opened the chat app, found Chen Mo at the top of the list, and prepared to send a message.

Unexpectedly, after a series of actions, the woman's phone screen went completely black.

"Oh no! My phone died and shut down!"

"Chen Mo, I don't have a spare phone in my bag, I only have a charging cable. Could you let me in to charge it for a while?"

Chen Mo stood at the door, staring straight at the other person, without saying a word for a long time.

At this moment, Lan Yujuan's back was pressed against the wall by the door, and her body slowly slid down, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

"Chen Mo, please!"

"I have some very important information to reply to in a little while, so my phone can't be turned off."

"Don't worry, I have something to do in a bit, I won't be staying long."

"I'll only stay in your room for half an hour to an hour to charge my phone, then I have to leave."

Lan Yujuan didn't want to hear another word after that; she was afraid she couldn't bear the cost of that unknown information.

However, just as she reached out to close the door, Chen Mo across from her suddenly said:

"Wait here for a moment!"

After he finished speaking, Chen Mo's footsteps were heard, as if he had turned around and entered the house.

The woman in the corridor was quite reserved.

Chen Mo didn't invite her in, so she stood at the door waiting.

Lan Yujuan closed the door halfway, but driven by curiosity, she couldn't bear to close it completely.

She made up her mind that since fate had brought her into this situation, she wanted to hear what Chen Mo was up to!

Less than two minutes later, Chen Mo's footsteps returned, and he then handed something to the other person.

Here, take it.

From behind, the woman in the corridor seemed to be frozen in place.

"What...is this?"

Chen Mo replied without hesitation:

"Here, take the power bank."

"Remember to fully charge your phone before you go out next time, so you don't miss your business."

It's not hard to tell from her voice alone that the woman's pleasure is declining sharply.

When he finally spoke, there was even a hint of gritted teeth.

"Thanks for reminding me! Chen Mo, you're such a kind person!"

"My phone is always fully charged before I go out."

Chen Mo raised a hand to scratch his brow, then crossed his arms in front of him and calmly said:

"Oh, you're quite busy."

"However, I'm not referring to cell phones."

"Remember to fully charge your power bank before you go out next time, so as not to delay Mr. Xu's busy schedule."
