Chapter 970 - No Fun

“No!”

Like a kid who did not get his candy, he pleaded relentlessly, as though if he did not get what he wanted tonight, he would not sleep well.

Based on how the two used to interact, Liu Duo would have strongly put her foot down, and Ye Mo would just have to suck it up!

But Liu Duo had been tolerating him lately, though not too frequently.

Her eyes shut, she turned over and mumbled to him, “Mo, get it yourself if you want it that much, but be gentle, alright? Don’t go rough on me.”

She absolutely did not have the energy to cater to him.

Ye Mo was initially fueled with excitement, but after hearing his wife’s sleepy statement he begrudgingly twitched his jaw.

How was he going to do that?

There was no fun in a one-sided effort!

He poked her gently, hoping she would not go to sleep too fast, but he could already hear her faint snores.

What? Asleep already? Frustrated, he thought.

Ye Mo needed the painstaking release but, after a close-up look at Liu Duo’s quiet, sleeping face, he did not get it himself.

“I demand extra service next time to make up for this time.” Ye Mo pinched her nose ever so gently as he murmured. “Dear, you owe me, and I want twice the payback!”

It seemed fair to him, since Liu Duo had backed out first.

After that, Ye Mo dragged Liu Duo’s hand downwards to curb his biological urge.

In town.

Liu Liushi told her husband Liu Quanfu everything about the brothers’ visit that day. The two discussed whether she should go to their house or not.

“What do you think? Should I?” Liu Liushi lay down on her side, facing Liu Quanfu. “It’ll be for a few months if I go, and someone else might take my place here.”

She was conflicted. She did not want to take too much into consideration but she had to!

She and her husband were not particularly skillful or young. It was not easy finding permanent jobs, especially those that came with food and accommodation.

Liu Quanfu, whose face was tired from age and from a long day’s work, thought deeply for a moment and said, “Why don’t you go then? Since they personally came to seek your help, it would be improper to refuse them.”

He believed that, if their children sought help from them, at least it meant they were not as useless or distant as the brothers (particularly Ye Mo) claimed they were!

Hence, they probably should not let them down.

After hearing what her husband had to say, Liu Liushi held on to her objection.

She conveyed her thoughts calmly. “We don’t even have a place to call our own. Perhaps we don’t have to worry about Ran Er when his time comes to start a family, but at the very least we should save some money for him. Mo mentioned something else as well. He said their mother could look after the house for them. I don’t know who that is but it sounds like they found the help they need. I guess we don’t have to go now.”

From the bottom of her heart, Liu Liushi was more likely to side with Liu Ran if she had to choose between her son and her daughter.

Liu Duo was a shared wife now, and she was pregnant, but Liu Ran had not settled and formed his family. As parents, they would have to fork over some money when that happened!

Their relationship with their children might be rocky but no matter what happened, Liu Ran would forever be their son!

“You’re really not going?” Liu Quanfu asked uncertainly.

What his wife said sounded right, but at the same time, something seemed off.
