Chapter 111 It was supposed to be just this once.
Li Mo'er took out slips of paper, wrote numbers on them, crumpled them up, and let them choose for themselves.
Seeing that no one was taking it, Shen Zicen said, "I'll take it first."
He grabbed the lot closest to him.
Everyone else picked one up too, as excited as if they were scratching a lottery ticket.
While the other three nervously opened the note, Su Yanli remained calm, as long as Mo'er was with her, it didn't matter which day it was.
Wang Jingmo looked at the "four" on his note, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
He has to wait three days before it's his turn.
Su Yanli sat next to Wang Jingmo and noticed the change in Wang Jingmo's emotions.
"Mine is two."
Shen Zicen had already opened the note. Although it wasn't the first one, Mo'er would be with him tomorrow night, and his voice revealed his anticipation.
"Mine is three."
Shen Ziche also read out the numbers on the note.
"mine……"
Before Wang Jingmo could finish speaking, Su Yanli took the note from his hand and stuffed another note into his hand.
"Mine is four."
Su Yanli spoke calmly, as if his actions just now had nothing to do with him.
Su Yanli moved so fast that no one else could see it clearly, not even Wang Jingmo, the protagonist whose note was switched, who was still in a daze.
"In that case, it'll be Jingmo tonight."
Shen Zicen looked at Wang Jingmo with envy.
Li Mo'er sat on the other side of Su Yanli. The two Shen brothers probably didn't see Su Yanli's actions, but she did.
She was surprised by Su Yanli's actions, but looking at Wang Jingmo's eyes, which were full of surprise and guilt, she could only hold Su Yanli's hand tightly under the table.
Su Yanli smiled slightly at Li Mo'er, and the magnanimity in his eyes made Li Mo'er feel sorry for him.
Why can't she split herself into two? It would be so much better if each of them had a Li Mo'er.
After the meal, Wang Jingmo disappeared. Shen Zicen went to the escort agency because the salt factory in Hutou Mountain was rushing to complete its work, and he also needed to transport some coarse salt from other places.
Shen Ziche went to the Shen family's shop, but he hadn't managed it much due to the wedding preparations.
All three of them unanimously reserved their daytime hours for Su Yanli on the last day.
Li Mo'er held Su Yanli's hand as they strolled in the courtyard. "Why did you switch with Jingmo?"
She still asked the question, afraid that Su Yanli would be too wronged.
“I… Jingmo is too young. I’m afraid he’ll overthink things on his last day.”
Su Yanli couldn't figure out Li Mo'er's thoughts, so she lowered her head and answered.
"I'm reluctant to leave, but I don't want you to suffer."
Li Mo'er cradled Su Yanli's head and looked at him, her eyes filled with heartache.
Su Yanli shook her head, "I'm not wronged."
Mo'er's words are enough.
Seeing Su Yanli's magnanimous attitude, Li Mo'er felt somewhat disappointed. She even wondered if Su Yanli no longer had any feelings for her.
She slowly lowered her hand, put her arm around Su Yanli's arm, and her voice was full of grievance.
Aren't you afraid I'll overthink things?
Her voice was very soft, but the two were very close, so Su Yanli heard it clearly.
He looked up in shock, saw Li Mo'er's pitiful expression, and couldn't help but smile.
"What nonsense are you thinking? I've already married you twice."
Upon hearing this, Li Mo'er's expression changed, a complex look flashed in her eyes, and she mumbled something indistinctly.
"It's only this once."
Su Yanli didn't hear clearly. Just as he was about to ask again, he heard Li Mo'er change the subject.
"Since this is your last day, I'll stay with you all day."
Li Mo'er hugged Su Yanli tightly and rubbed against his neck.
Su Yanli sighed helplessly. No wonder she hadn't let him go to the shop to watch over things earlier.
The two strolled around the courtyard, enjoying the scenery, and Li Mo'er even took a nap with him.

"Mother, Mo'er wants to sleep in my room tonight, I..."
Wang Jingmo blushed deeply and was too embarrassed to continue.
Dr. Wang looked at his son, who had excitedly run back early in the morning, and was somewhat speechless.
"Jingmo, on the first day of your marriage, why are you going back to your parents' home?"
Wang Jingmo looked up in confusion, "Huh? Is that not allowed?"
Looking at her simple-minded son, Doctor Wang decided to let it go and not dwell on it.
Knowing that her son came back alone just to ask this question, she probably felt embarrassed to come back with Mo'er.
However, even though she was a doctor, she was ashamed to talk about this matter.
So she went back to her room, rummaged through her drawers and found a comic book.
"Cough-cough-"
She awkwardly handed the book to Wang Jingmo, saying, "Go back to your room and study it yourself."
Holding the book, Wang Jingmo, unsure of what it was, asked curiously, "What if I don't understand it?"
In the past, his mother would give him a few medical books like this, and read them with him. If he didn't understand something, his mother would answer his questions.
However, this time his mother told him to go to his room and see for himself.
Dr. Wang's face flushed red instantly, and he waved his hand hastily, "This is simple, you'll understand it at a glance."
Wang Jingmo scratched his head in confusion, then took the book and went back to his room.
As soon as he opened the book, he immediately closed it, completely dazed.
How could a mother let him read such a book!
He reached up and touched his cheek; it was burning hot.
He looked at the comic book on the table with a conflicted expression, and after much hesitation, he finally opened it.
He needs to study hard, because if Mo'er is unhappy, she might never come to see him again.
Wang Jingmo was as well-behaved as a primary school student, and read the book from beginning to end.
During that time, he covered his eyes countless times and uttered countless sighs.
"Can it really be like this?"
"They actually..."
After he finished reading the book, not only his cheeks but even the tips of his ears turned red.
When Wang Jingmo was leaving, Doctor Wang asked him to take the comic book with him, but he repeatedly declined.
What if Mo'er finds out he's looking at this kind of thing?
But one sentence from his mother made him stay.
"Once you learn it, you'll be able to capture Mo'er's heart."
So Wang Jingmo took the book back to the Shen residence.
Along the way, he always felt that other people were looking at him with strange eyes, as if they knew he was hiding something, and they would always touch the book every now and then to see if it was hidden properly.
