Chapter 1340: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (13)
Shi Nianyao and Shi Xun exchanged a look and sighed in relief.
Then they walked into the house with Little Cherry leading the way.
Shi Xun asked, “Why didn’t he come in since he came all the way here?”
Shi Nianyao immediately explained, “My idol had to attend to something at home, so he had to leave first.”
Shi Xun halted when he heard this and turned to look at her. “Anything serious?”
She shook her head at once and said, “No, no.”
Shi Xun continued to look at her intently and asked, “Really?”
“It’s the truth, nothing but the truth!”
Shi Xun shook his head and said, “Let me know if you do need help.”
“I know, Big Brother!
She pushed him along as they walked into the house.
However, before they had even properly entered the house, Little Cherry was already saying at the top of her voice, “Grandma, Granddad, I have a secret to tell you!”
The moment the child said this, Shi Nianyao and Shi Xun immediately exchanged a panicky glance and immediately dashed towards her. The child quickly moved herself close to Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan and whispered something to them.
Shi Xun: …!
Shi Xun immediately reached out and pulled Little Cherry back, chiding her, “Didn’t we agree that we’re not telling anyone?”
The child retorted, “But Grandpa and Grandma are not anyone, so it’s okay to tell them the secret! Don’t worry, Dad, I didn’t tell Grandma about you and Mom creating a little brother. I only told them about Aunt and Uncle Mo playing kiss-kiss in the car.”
Shi Xun was stumped.
As was Nianyao, who felt like she was a completely innocent victim in all of this.
She threw Shi Xun a glance that was obviously full of lament and said, “Big Brother, you really need to watch out with what Little Cherry says!”
He nodded.
Without looking at Shi Jinyan’s reaction, Shi Nianyao quickly headed into the dining room and tried to change the topic, “Dad, Mom, is dinner ready? I’m starving.”
She had barely taken two steps when Shi Jinyan started, “Yao Yao, as a girl, you need to be more reserved. You—”
“Oh alright, Dad, stop lecturing me. Let’s eat. We’ll talk after eating. I’m starving!”
Shi Jinyan: …
After dinner, however, Shi Nianyao quickly stood up and ran back upstairs to the bedroom. She left no opportunity for her father to keep talking about it.
Once she was back in the bedroom, she lay back in her bed quietly, staring at the ceiling.
She was still in a daze from the things that had happened today.
Tomorrow, at the city hall, with the household registration booklet…
Then she suddenly jumped onto her feet. That’s right! The household registration booklet!
For sure, she would need her household registration booklet for registering her marriage tomorrow.
But where had she placed her household registration booklet now?
She bit her lip at this thought, curled her back and stood up. She walked to the door and quietly opened it.
The skies had darkened, but through the crack of the door, she could see that the light in her elder brother’s bedroom was on.
Shi Nianyao walked towards the study.
That was where Dad and Mom kept all their documents, and it seemed like the household registration booklet was in a drawer in the study too.
She sneaked up to the room and pushed the door open.
She felt like she was a thief in her own home, sneaking around late at night.
She looked around, feeling somewhat guilty, and quickly dashed into the room.
She didn’t dare to turn on the lights and had to grope around in the dark for a while before she found the household registration booklet.
An expression of delight flashed across her face at once. She turned around quietly and sneaked back into her room.
It had been an easy success. In fact, it had gone so smoothly that it felt too good to be true.
At this point, her cell phone vibrated. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Mo Xicheng.
