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

Originally, Chen Mo was almost coaxed into a good mood, but Lan Yujuan's simple words made him even more depressed.

Lan Yujuan saw his expression clearly.

That's just how this man is; he can clearly distinguish right from wrong on important matters, but he tends to get stuck on trivial things.

But that's just how it is. Since we can't escape it, we might as well face it honestly.

It would be better to ask him all the questions and things he wants to know all at once, and then coax him if necessary, or make a scene if he wants.

As she thought this, she placed her hand on her lower abdomen. Anyway, she wasn't afraid.

Chen Mo was sulking when suddenly a muffled "duang" sound came from not far away, followed by a whooshing sound coming from this direction.

The three of them looked up almost simultaneously, heading towards the basketball court where the sound was coming from.

A basketball flew over the barbed wire fence and headed straight for the convenience store, about to hit the parasol.

It's too late to say, then soon!

Chen Mo put down his water bottle, took a quick step, jumped up, and caught the basketball steadily.

Inside the basketball court, several college students were playing basketball. When they saw the basketball fly out of bounds and almost hit someone, they were so frightened that they quickly ran towards the wire fence, apologizing as they ran.

Chen Mo nodded slightly, "It's alright, you guys keep playing."

After saying that, he tossed the basketball into the court with the hand that was holding it. The basketball that had just flown out flew over the barbed wire and back into the basketball court.

Lan Yujuan sat beside him watching, and seeing the way Chen Mo's eyes were focused just now, she almost thought he was going to stand on the sidelines and shoot.

However, later it was seen that Chen Mo held back and only tossed it lightly without using too much force.

For a moment, she thought she was seeing things.

As soon as Chen Mo made a move, anyone in the know could tell he knew how to play basketball.

The college students on the basketball court immediately began to extend a warm invitation:

"Hey bro, wanna come in and play for a bit?"

Chen Mo stood on the sidelines for a while, hands on his hips, then smiled and shook his head, before turning to look at Lan Yujuan and her daughter.

"No, I'm busy!"

Lan Yujuan had already seen through the eagerness in his eyes.

When Chen Mo first arrived at the convenience store, he immediately spotted the basketball court next door.

While sitting at the entrance of the convenience store drinking water, Chen Mo's eyes almost never left the basketball court, clearly itching to join in.

"Go, go!"

Lan Yujuan smiled and approached him, gently nudging him with her hand.

"It's a rare day off, and we have all the time in the world, so let's play for a while if we want, okay?"

"After Xiaoman finishes her ice cream, we'll go in and cheer her on!"

Chen Mo raised a hand and scratched his brow, still somewhat hesitant.

"I haven't touched a ball in a long time. I'm just taking a look; it's not like I absolutely have to play."

Seeing this, Lan Yujuan simply reached out and pushed him with a little more force:

"Go, go!"

At this, Chen Mo was completely moved, and he cleared his throat and said:

"Cough, cough!"

"Okay, I'll go play for a while, just a little while."

Lan Yujuan smiled and nodded vigorously, "Yes, no problem!"

Soon, Chen Mo went around to the main entrance of the basketball court, went in, and joined the team.

Not long after he entered, he shot a three-pointer from a distance, and the basketball court erupted in applause.

With a common language, the age gap no longer seemed to be a problem, and Chen Mo quickly became friends with the college students inside.

Seeing that they were having a great time, Lan Yujuan turned around and went into the convenience store, bought a bottle of water, and asked someone to deliver it to the basketball court.

Afterwards, he took his daughter into the basketball court and sat down to watch the game intently.

On the basketball court, the dazzling man was a side of Lan Yujuan she had never seen before.

Although she didn't go on stage, she was in the audience, watching with great enthusiasm.

Chen Mo played a very enjoyable game, and when he left the court, the college students who had played with him surrounded him, asking for his contact information.

Lan Yujuan had never seen anyone get Chen Mo's contact information so easily before.

It's important to understand that in a formal work setting, even with business partners, the most you can do is add them to your company's contact information; you rarely contact them privately.

When Chen Mo finished playing ball and came over, Lan Yujuan subconsciously got up, handing him wet wipes and water while jokingly saying with a smile:

Chen Mo took the water and drank several mouthfuls.

Instead of taking the wet wipes, he leaned his head forward, his meaning all too clear: he wanted Lan Yujuan to wipe him.

Lan Yujuan couldn't do anything about him. She smiled and gently wiped his sweat, just as he wanted.

However, just as she reached out her hand, before Chen Mo had even finished wiping the sweat from his forehead, shouts and whistles erupted from the basketball court not far away, clearly directed at Chen Mo.

Lan Yujuan froze, her face turning bright red as the group of older children teased her.

On the other hand, Chen Mo was all smiles, looking extremely smug.

He even turned around confidently, waved to a few people not far away, and pointed to his phone.

Lan Yujuan glared at him with a playful smile:

"I didn't expect Mr. Chen to be so popular with university students!"

The guys who played ball with him earlier clearly liked him.

Chen Mo turned his head and smiled brightly, "They're not all college students; a few are school teachers too."

Afterwards, the family of three packed their things and walked out slowly, chatting as they went.

It was almost noon, so Lan Yujuan prepared to take them to the school cafeteria for a simple meal.

Not long after she stepped off the basketball court, Lan Yujuan's phone suddenly vibrated, and the voice sounded unfamiliar.

At the same time, Chen Mo's phone next to him also vibrated.

Lan Yujuan curiously took out her phone, opened it and took a look. It turned out to be the alumni group that Xia Donghe had added her to a few days ago, and today a new person had quietly joined.

She was also pulled in by the administrator, but this administrator was not Xia Donghe, and she didn't know him.

But the profile picture of the alumnus who had just been added to the group looked very familiar to Lan Yujuan.

"Hey, someone new joined our alumni group, and their profile picture is the same as yours!"

Lan Yujuan, surprised, held her phone up to Chen Mo, wanting him to see it.

"Really? Let me see, it really is exactly the same." Chen Mo glanced at her phone and said with a faint smile.

He seemed completely unsurprised by this scene.

Lan Yujuan turned her head to look at him, feeling that something was not quite right.

She subconsciously clicked on the familiar profile picture and glanced at the business card introduction.

It turns out that not only were their profile pictures the same, but their names, bios, and even...

"Wait a moment!"

"How come this person has our marriage certificate photo in their WeChat Moments?"

Finally, Lan Yujuan realized what was happening!

"Did the new friend you met while playing basketball add you to our alumni group?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow slightly, a mischievous smile on his face:

"Um!"

"I heard that your alumni group often organizes alumni activities in different cities from time to time."

"Anyway, I'm free anyway. If I'm free, I can go with you, okay?"

Lan Yujuan was both amused and exasperated after hearing this.

"It's just a regular group chat. Do I look like I have that much free time?"

"Besides, even if I did have the time to participate, you might not have the time to actually come with me..."
