8 Renting a Big House

Xiao Ke woke to their voices. She raised her hands and stretched.

She quickly ran down the bed and ran to Xu Mo's side, waving her hands. "Daddy, I see you again."

His daughter's cute little face was right in front of him. The more Xu Mo looked at her, the more he liked her.

Holding her on his lap, Xu Mo said, "You can see Daddy every day from now on."

Xu Nanjin patted her head. "You've been pestering Daddy since you woke up this morning. Go wash up and brush your teeth."

Xiao Ke was excited. She hugged Xu Mo's neck and refused to come down.

Sticking out her tongue, she said childishly, "I want Daddy to brush my teeth with me."

Xu Mo hugged her and said, "Okay, Daddy will accompany you."

Wow, his daughter was too happy. Xu Mo agreed to anything.

Xu Nanjin felt that she was dressed too casually and wanted to go in to touch up her makeup.

But she was fair to begin with, and her complexion was even. There was no need for makeup.

Her eyebrows were already dark enough, so she gave herself lipstick.

But she wiped off at the thought of breakfast later.

In the end, she just combed her hair and dressed up.

In the small bathroom, there were three sets of toiletries. Xu Mo felt very warm.

This was probably what home felt like. The realization wasn't that deep yet, but it made him feel responsible for his family.

Xiao Ke was very good at taking care of herself. She squeezed the toothpaste, filled the cup with water, and started brushing.

She moistened her mouth and quickly had foam all over her mouth.

Since Xu Mo also needed to brush his teeth, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

Xiao Ke blew foam and laughed out loud. "Daddy, you've grown a white beard."

Xu Mo had to shave every morning, so he didn't avoid his daughter and simply shaved.

The foam in Xiao Ke's mouth ran down to her chin. "I have some too, Daddy," she said to the mirror. "Do you want to shave them, too?"

Xu Mo wiped it away with her hand and said, "Only Daddy needs to shave."

Xiao Ke had never seen any of this before. She kept staring curiously.

She only looked away after Xu Mo had washed his face.

She took a small towel and twisted it, then carefully wiped her face clean.

Xu Mo took the towel and washed it again before drying it.

The father and daughter walked out hand in hand. Xu Nanjin was already waiting at the dining table.

Her hair was combed into a soft and fluffy style. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, even if she was just sitting, her aura was fully displayed.

Xu Mo carried Xiao Ke onto a stool and called everyone to eat.

The taste of the buns downstairs was average. Xu Mo had yet to sign in for the breakfast food manual, so he could only make do with it.

Xu Mo said, "Let's go look at the house first. If it's suitable, we'll move over immediately."

The couch was quite torturous after a night of sleeping. When he woke up in the morning, he felt like he couldn't straighten his back.

After dinner, the three of them went out.

Xu Mo had already called and arranged a time to meet the owner of the house.

The walk of a few hundred meters was just in time for them to get inside and look at the house.

The building was thirty-three stories high. They were renting a house on the twenty-ninth floor.

The view outside was excellent, and the lighting inside was excellent.

More importantly, there was enough room. Two bedrooms and a guest room that could store unused items.

Xu Nanjin looked around the room in delight while Xiao Ke ran around the living room happily.

The price was according to the website. Seeing that they liked it too, Xu Mo signed the contract on the spot.

The house owner said a few things of note and left.

Xu Mo held the key and felt that he was not renting a house, but a future.

Since he had the system, he would definitely be able to earn more wealth in a short period of time.

In the future, not only would he buy a house and a car, but he would also give Xiao Ke a better education and let Xu Nanjin lead a better life.

He sat on the couch and Xiao Ke pounced on him. "Daddy, are we going to live here from now on?"

Xu Mo nodded. "Do you like it?"

Xiao Ke wasn't wearing her big bunny ears today. She had two cute little tweets.

If it came to winter, she'd look even better in red than the New Year doll.

She blinked happily. "I love it. And the bed inside is so big. Can Daddy sleep with us?"

When Xu Mo heard this, he stole a glance at Xu Nanjin and realized that she was looking at the scenery outside the window and didn't seem to hear him.

He said, "We'll talk about it when we get our stuff here, okay? Let's go back."

On the way, he called a moving company. After living there for so long, there was a lot of stuff.

After returning, he began to pack his things. In less than an hour, he had packed everything.

Xu Nanjin also put her things back into the suitcase. She wanted to say something but didn't know how to start.

After spending a day with Xu Mo, she wished she could return to the Internet.

So she really pulled out her phone and sent a message.

"Xu Mo, thank you for improving the environment for us."

Xu Mo had just finished answering the call. The moving company would be here in ten minutes.

Seeing Xu Nanjin's message, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She was right beside him. Why did she have to use her phone to contact him?

He walked over to her and said, "This is my responsibility. Speaking of which, I owe you."

It was all thanks to her that Xiao Ke was so obedient and cute.

Xu Nanjin shook her head and said softly, "Well, I took the initiative to give birth to Xiao Ke. It was my fault for not telling you."

Actually, she had contacted Xu Mo before, but she had never been able to reach him.

After that, there was too much to do, so she decided to talk about it later.

Who knew that years would pass while she waited? If she hadn't been pressured by her family, it might have been years before they met.

A woman who'd given birth alone, taken care of her daughter, and raised her. Not only hadn't she blamed him, she'd blamed herself.

Xu Mo felt that he must have saved the Milky Way in his previous life to meet such a good woman.

Touched, he said, "I hope it makes up for my lack of responsibility. If you have anything to say, just tell me. It's much better to talk face-to-face than communicate on the Internet."

Xu Nanjin felt very nervous when facing Xu Mo.

Especially when he was so close to her. She felt the temperature rise.

Her heart was beating a little too fast. She turned her head awkwardly. "Yes, I understand."

Xiao Ke suddenly ran over and waved for Xu Mo to lower her head. She said mischievously, "Mommy blushed. That means she likes you."

The room was small, and Xiao Ke's voice was not too low. Xu Nanjin blushed even more when she heard her.

She gave Xiao Ke a mock-angry stare. "No nonsense."

Xiao Ke looked up and said seriously, "Mom, what I said is true. I like Dad, too. Why can't I say that?"

Her daughter was really loose-lipped. Xu Nanjin took out a lollipop from her purse, removed the packaging, and placed it in her mouth. "Alright, don't talk."

She didn't have many secrets to begin with. If she didn't stop her daughter, her daughter would definitely expose everything.

Xiao Ke happily licked her lollipop and nodded happily.

Xu Mo smiled. His daughter was the best. She had given him so much information.
