"Honey, take a guess," Mama Yiyi said.
Papa Yiyi pondered. Their community was a pure villa complex, with only a little over a hundred villas, some of which were still vacant. He had basically met all his neighbors.
He was quite familiar with many of them.
After all, those who bought houses here weren't simple. Ready-made connections meant they had to get to know each other.
Papa Yiyi, being older, immediately passed on the idea.
They should have some sense.
Even if they were rich, with Xu Mengyao's family having billions, would she be short on money?
People who are ugly are also immediately passed over.
Those types should also know they don't have a chance.
Having children is also a pass. Could Xu Mengyao be a stepmother? Xu Mengyao is beautiful and her family is very wealthy. She has a daughter, which many people don't care about.
But if the man has children, Xu Mengyao definitely cares.
"Li Lin from Villa number thirty-two?"
Yi-yi's father thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Husband, you're amazing, you guessed it right!"
Yi-yi's father snorted, "He's handsome, and as a fitness blogger, his physique is also good. He's still quite attractive to women."
"His flaw is that he's not rich enough; the Xu family's wealth is very attractive to him."
"Honey, how do you know he has designs on President Xu?"
Yiyi's mother: "We women have a group, you know. The neighborhood isn't that big, so we find out everything he does."
"But President Xu doesn't know."
"Li Lin hasn't been here long, and President Xu is busy. She's not in our gossip group either."
Yiyi's father said in surprise: "You didn't tell President Xu?"
"No."
"If we badmouthed Li Lin before, wouldn't it be awkward if they got together? Now, we're sure Li Lin has no chance."
"Honey, why don't you talk to the great Lin Chen?"
Yiyi's mother said.
"Okay."
Yiyi's father nodded. He had already added Lin Chen on WeChat. Someone was trying to poach Lin Chen, and this needed to be addressed.
About half an hour later, Lin Chen and the others arrived home.
Lin Xiaoxi was still asleep.
Lin Chen gently carried her back home. As soon as they got home, Lin Xiaoxi woke up, her eyes still hazy. "Daddy, where's Mommy? I don't want Mommy and Daddy to get divorced."
"Xixi, Mommy is here."
Xu Mengyao came out of the bathroom.
She was just about to wipe Lin Xiaoxi down and let her go straight to sleep.
"Mommy."
Lin Xiaoxi's eyes lit up.
Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoxi and smiled, "Xixi, Daddy and Mommy love you very much, we won't get a divorce."
Xu Mengyao said, "Xixi, why did you bring this up?"
"Is it because of Yuanyuan?"
Lin Xiaoxi nodded her little head, "Mommy, Yuanyuan used to have a daddy to accompany her, but now she doesn't."
"Yuanyuan is so sad."
Xu Mengyao sighed inwardly.
She could also see that Yuanyuan was a bit down today.
"Xiaoxi, don't worry, Dad and Mom get along great."
Xu Mengyao patted Lin Xiaoxi's head and comforted her.
Lin Xiaoxi looked at Lin Chen and then at Xu Mengyao: "Mom, then why haven't you hugged Dad?"
Xu Mengyao opened her arms.
She hugged Lin Chen and Lin Xiaoxi at the same time.
Last time Lin Chen hugged, it was with Lin Xiaoxi in between. This time, Xu Mengyao's embrace didn't have Lin Xiaoxi as a buffer.
Lin Xiaoxi was on her left, and Lin Chen was on her right.
"Who said I've never hugged Dad?"
"We do our kissing and hugging in private, so we don't want you to see."
Xu Mengyao's face flushed slightly.
She could feel her heart pounding.
Lin Xiaoxi smiled sweetly, "Dad, kiss Mommy."
Xu Mengyao was startled.
She could accept being hugged like this now.
Lin Chen still had some psychological barriers about kissing her.
Just then, Xu Mengyao's phone rang.
She quickly let go of them and took out her phone. It was a video call from her father. Xu Mengyao answered. "Dad, Mom," Xu Mengyao called out.
Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue were together at the moment.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Mommy just hugged Daddy," Lin Xiaoxi said in a milky voice.
Xu Mengyao: "..."
Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue were delighted.
Their daughter had hugged Lin Chen? It seemed her illness had improved considerably.
Lin Chen appeared in the camera: "Uncle Xu, Aunt Yang."
Xu Guofeng smiled slightly: "Lin Chen, we'll be back next Wednesday. There's something we'd like to discuss with you."
Lin Chen: "Uncle Xu, what is it?"
Xu Guofeng coughed lightly: "You're married, and it's not a solution for Mengyao to keep living at home. You've already bought a house, so why doesn't she go live with you?"
Xu Mengyao's face flushed red.
She said coquettishly, "Dad, are you trying to chase me away?"
Xu Guofeng shook his head. "I'm not chasing you away. Mom and Dad's home will always be your home, but you're married and have your own small family now. Your small family is the most important thing."
"Lin Chen, what do you think?"
Lin Chen quickly said, "Uncle Xu, you're brilliant!"
"Dad, aren't you going to ask for my opinion first?" Xu Mengyao pouted.
Yang Qingyue said, "Mengyao, we're doing this for your own good. Not many couples have a good relationship when they live at the wife's parents' home for a long time. It'll also be convenient for you to take care of Xiaoxi if you live together."
"I'll think about it some more."
Xu Mengyao spoke.
She'd had this thought for a while.
But agreeing to move in just like that made her feel a little embarrassed.
Xu Guofeng said, "Let's vote democratically. Us two, you two, plus Xiaoxi, that's five of us."
"Those in favor of you moving in, raise your hands."
Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue raised their hands.
Lin Chen also raised his hand. Lin Xiaoxi giggled, raising her small hand high as well.
Xu Mengyao: "..."
Such a democratic vote is better left uncast.
"Alright, alright."
"I'll hurry up and move."
Xu Mengyao said, annoyed.
Xu Guofeng said with a chuckle, "Mengyao, move before we get back. Moving is very noisy, and your mother still needs some time to recover."
"Okay."
Xu Mengyao nodded. "Dad, we have something to do, so I'll hang up."
After saying that, Xu Mengyao hung up the phone.
"Xiaoxi, you little traitor."
"Why aren't you on Mom's side?"
Xu Mengyao pinched Lin Xiaoxi's tender cheeks.
Lin Xiaoxi giggled and said, "Because I miss Mommy. Are you sad, Mommy?"
"Yes, Mommy is a little sad."
Xu Mengyao pretended to be sad.
"Mommy, Daddy and I will kiss you, and then you won't be sad anymore."
Xu Mengyao was instantly no longer "sad."
"Xiaoxi, Mommy isn't sad. Mommy was just teasing you."
"Mommy is going to give you a bath."
Xu Mengyao and Lin Xiaoxi went to take a bath. A faint smile appeared on Lin Chen's face. Today's gains were not bad.
He obtained two skills, and Xu Mengyao was also moving in.
He was quite looking forward to living together with Xu Mengyao.
Lin Chen knew it was impossible to sleep together soon. Xu Mengyao's psychological illness wouldn't get better so easily, but living together would definitely lead to quite a bit of intimate contact.
The more contact there was, the faster the iceberg would melt.
"Ding!"
Lin Xiaoxi took a shower, and then it was Xu Mengyao's turn.
Lin Chen received a message on WeChat.
"Yiyi's dad is home," the WeChat message said. He had sent it.
"Brother Lin, Li Lin from villa number thirty-two has an interest in President Xu; he's a fitness blogger."
"His online name is—"
Lin Chen quickly found Li Lin's account.
Li Lin had three or four million followers, quite a lot.
