"Wife, I don't know how to tell your mother," Xu Bin sighed. "It's like the job your brother-in-law found, just a security guard earning a little over 4,000 yuan a month, which is less than what I make from my scattered investments."
"But you know how she is, she won't understand these things," he continued. "Besides, this is our own money. Since we got married, I've been busy and frustrated. I just wanted to save up and buy a house quickly, even if it's a small one. It would be our little haven."
Naturally, Xu Bin didn't blush or falter. He kissed her cheek and said, "We can't depend on others forever."
Upon hearing this, Yao Nan's face lit up, feeling happy and content. She softly said, "Honey, I've always said that I have the best taste, and you have the most responsible and steady character."
Xu Bin chuckled and said, "Once we have our own house, we can do whatever we want. No more sneaking around like thieves last night."
Blushing, Yao Nan playfully scolded him, "Meanie, I did everything you told me to do last night, didn't I?"
After enjoying this wonderful meal, the couple went shopping together and bought a lot of snacks to bring home. Dinner time came, but Yao Nan's mother didn't come back to eat. They finished their meal and continued their carefree wandering. The only downside was that their swollen lower parts from the previous night made walking uncomfortable.
In the evening, Yao Nan's mother said she wouldn't be coming back for dinner and went straight to play cards. She was probably avoiding them.
The couple had a tiring but enjoyable day of dates. They wanted to engage in intimate activities but were interrupted by a phone call from the property management, so they took turns showering instead.
After showering, they sat together in the living room watching TV, cuddling and teasing each other. Yao Nan suddenly whispered, "Honey, what if we tell my mom about the money?"
It was clear that she still felt a bit resentful, considering how her mother always made sarcastic remarks. She also wanted to show off and have a sense of accomplishment.
Xu Bin's hand had been rubbing her bare chest under her shirt the whole time. After thinking for a moment, he said, "That might be a good idea. Actually, I'm not trying to hide it from her. Sometimes I just feel like it's unnecessary."
"Why?"
"Just think about your brother-in-law. Your mom believes every word he says when he talks about having money, but in reality, he spends extravagantly and is always borrowing money. Your sister has the same spending habits. What if they find out and come asking for money?"
Xu Bin posed a soul-searching question, "At that time, will you lend them money or not?"
"Um..." Yao Nan was momentarily stunned.
These two sisters were completely different. Yao Xin had drained the family's savings while attending art school and never contributed to the household expenses. She always relied on being the eldest and constantly asked for money, but she was shrewd enough to only spend money on herself.
Yao Nan, on the other hand, was overly honest. After starting work, she had been giving half of her salary to her mother for household expenses, and she still did so now.
"Wife, I didn't mention it at first because I had considered this aspect," Xu Bin hugged her and kissed her, whispering, "But since you brought it up, how about I buy a gift for my mother tomorrow? That way, she won't keep nagging."
"Okay!" Yao Nan said softly. "Honey, it's your decision. People may say you're a freeloader, but you're the backbone of my life."
As they cuddled and kissed, Xu Bin's desire grew stronger and began to cause him discomfort. He pressed against Yao Nan's body, who was already on her knees between his legs, holding his member and continuing to pleasure him orally.
At that moment, door was opened.
"Why are you two leaving the lights on like this? Do you think electricity is free?"
Yao Nan's mother, Shen Ruyu, spoke in her usual sarcastic and mocking tone as she entered. However, she froze upon seeing the scene in the living room.
