Trial Marriage Husband: Need to Work Hard
Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi
That night, the Mo Family Home was extremely lively. As Tangning looked at her two sons and saw that they each had their own family â and on top of that, Mo Zixi was a father â she felt overcome by unexplainable emotions.
A flash marriage at 26-years-old ended up giving her the happy family before her today. When Tangning realized this, she began to cry in front of her children.
âMom, why are you crying? When Dad gets home, heâs going to think that we bullied you. Heâs going to beat us up for this,â Mo Ziyan immediately helped her mother wipe her tears.
âYour two brothers have both settled down, what about you?â
âIâm still young,â Mo Ziyan clung to her mother like a child.
Tangning didnât know what to do about her, so she lectured, âYouâre already the CEO of Hai Rui. Young? When I was in my teens, I was already walking runways.â
âI still want to study for a few more years.â
âFine, keep studying, do what you want to do.â
Tangning did not get involved with Mo Ziyanâs love life, just like how she didnât get involved with Mo Zixi and Mo Zichenâs love lives either. For her, relationships were destined and couldnât be forced, especially when it came to love.
So, she let Mo Ziyan stumble around on her own. Even if she hit her head and it started bleeding, it didnât matter.
That night, the Mo Family Home was filled with joy and laughter and all their conversations were focused around the topic of children.
The entire family doted on Xingzhe, so he wasnât afraid at all that he was about to have a sister to compete with for affection.
...
One month later, Yao Anqi surprisingly received an invite on her office desk. It was something that she had never expected: Chen Jingrong was getting married to Li Shengyuan.
Yao Anqi took the invite home and gave it to Mo Zixi so he could make a decision as to whether they would attend or not.
But, Mo Zixiâs mind was completely focused on Yao Anqiâs body. How did he have time to worry about anything else?
So, he handed the decision-making right back to Yao Anqi.
Yao Anqi thought carefully and finally decided to drop by. After all, she sincerely felt Mo Zixiâs love and she didnât mind if he saw Chen Jingrong again. Besides, Chen Jingrong now had her model fiance, so she wouldnât be interested in Mo Zixi anyway.
One week later, Yao Anqi and Mo Zixi made an appearance at the grand wedding.
When Chen Jingrong saw the couple, she was extremely moved and personally went over to thank them, âI thought you wouldnât come.â
âHe happened to be home, so we decided to come join the celebration.â
âAnqi, Iâm honestly thankful to the two of you, did you know that?â Chen Jingrong raised a glass to thank Yao Anqi, but Mo Zixi quickly stopped her.
âSheâs pregnant, so letâs forget the wine.â
Chen Jingrong never expected that theyâd have a second child so soon. In the end, she revealed a relieved smile, âCongratulations and I wish you both the best. Without you, I wouldnât have found a love that truly belonged to me.â
âFrom now on, donât go to such extremes,â Mo Zixi reminded Chen Jingrong.
âOf course, Iâll cherish this love that didnât come easy.â
Afterwards, Chen Jingrong and Li Shengyuan went to greet their other guests while Mo Zixi secretly left with Yao Anqi; he felt a little upset.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âI feel sorry towards you. When I married you, we never held a proper wedding ceremony and I never gave you a proper proposal, nor did you get to wear a beautiful wedding dress before I made you fall pregnant again,â Mo Zixi felt bad.
âI donât mind. Our love never followed convention anyway,â Yao Anqi smiled. âLook at Mom and Dad, they never held a wedding, right? Yet, they still stayed by each otherâs side until they got old. Weddings are just a formality. For me, itâs not as important as you think.â
Mo Zixi patted Yao Anqi on the head; he still felt like he owed her.
At this moment, their thoughts were interrupted by good news from the Mo Family Home: Qian Lan was also pregnant.
However, Qian Lan was a bit flustered when she first saw the result on the pregnancy test, âI was sure we used a condom. How did I fall pregnant?â
âSilly, I removed it,â Mo Zichen replied.
âYou didnât even ask me if I was willing.â
âWhat do you want me to do now? Youâre already pregnant.â Mo Zichen began to comfort his wife, âInstructor Qian, women recover faster when they give birth earlier.â
âI donât believe you.â
The main issue was, Qian Lan had just accepted the task of training some new recruits. Now that she was pregnant, what was she to do?
Of course, she was scolding Mo Zixi on the surface, but she was actually happy on the inside. After all, she had already dreamed about having a child with Mo Zixi for a long time.
...
âNow that Big Bro has two kids and we have one, what about your sister?â
Qian Lan began to worry about Mo Ziyan.
Mo Zichen humphed and said with disdain, âWhy are you concerned about her? Are you worried that no oneâs pursuing her?â
âIâve never seen Ziyan in a relationship before.â
âThatâs because she likes someone thatâs âabove average.â
When it came to gathering intel, there was nothing that Mo Zichen couldnât find. So, he had already discovered a while back, the reason why Ziyan insisted on staying at the university: it was because she had a crush on one of the professors.
But, the man had yet to make a move.
âFrom what youâre saying, does that mean Ziyanâs not going to succeed?â
âNot necessarily.â
According to his sisterâs personality, if she wanted something, she would wait patiently for it, no matter how long it took.
Now, it depended on whether the other party would realize.
âItâs just a little embarrassing that someone from the Mo Family is chasing a man around everywhere.â
What Mo Zichen meant was, Mo Ziyan wasnât charming enough. Thatâs why she still couldnât get this man yet.
A few days later, the Mo Family once again had a gathering for dinner. This time, they were celebrating Qian Lanâs pregnancy. Whenever there was good news, Tangning was happy to celebrate. This way, their family would grow closer.
But, due to the fact that both her brothers had already fulfilled two big milestones in their life, Mo Ziyan naturally became the target of ridicule.
âLook at you, you donât even have a boyfriend!â
âThatâs right, stop holding onto my son all the time and not letting him go. You should go give birth to one of your own,â Mo Zixi complained.
Mo Ziyan didnât know how to respond, so while no one was looking, she quickly snuck out.
Tangning saw her leave but did not expose her. After the dinner, she privately asked her husband, âTing...why donât you take note of the friends around you and see if there are any young eligible men that you could introduce to our daughter?â
âDo you think sheâd like that?â Mo Ting asked back.
âBut, she canât keep persisting with this one-sided crush,â Tangning replied. âAlthough I donât normally get involved with our childrenâs love lives, I donât want to see my precious little gem being humiliated like this.â
âIf sheâs your precious little gem, then what am I?â
Tangning couldnât help but laugh at Mo Tingâs question, âYouâre my everything...â
Mo Ting was satisfied with this answer. âJust wait a little longer. Give our daughter a bit more time...â
Meanwhile, Mo Ziyan was hiding in her room feeling a little upset.
She was starting to question whether, after persisting for so many years, she could still hold on.
