Chapter 37: Christmas Tree
Chapter 37: Christmas Tree
Inside the villa, a small Christmas tree, about 1.5 meters tall, stands in the center of the living room, which is perfect for the home.
The Christmas tree was decorated with colorful lights and greeting cards, but only part of it was decorated, and some parts were scattered on the ground.
Upon entering the house, Lan Ruoxin took off her coat and hung it on a hanger. She then went to the water dispenser, poured a bottle of milk into a cup, heated it on the dispenser, and started making coffee.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Lu Qingqing excitedly came to the Christmas tree and looked at it. Although she had seen many on TV, she had never had a Christmas tree at home, which made her very excited.
"Auntie Principal, is this Christmas tree really for our family?" Lu Qingqing asked Lan Ruoxin expectantly.
"Of course, this is a gift for your father, and also a gift for you." Lan Ruoxin walked over with a plate and placed it on the table, containing two cups of coffee and a cup of hot milk.
"Come on, let's have some coffee!" Lan Ruoxin invited Mo Xunhuan.
"Thank you." Mo Xunhuan walked over and sat on the sofa, picked up the steaming coffee, and carefully tasted it.
Lan Ruoxin unbuttoned one of her shirts, let out a long sigh, leaned back on the sofa, and leisurely sipped her coffee.
"Last night, I was planning to finish decorating this Christmas tree. But a friend invited me out to dinner, and by the time I got back it was already past 9 p.m. I was so sleepy that even though I managed to finish it until 10 p.m., I only managed to finish half of it before I fell asleep."
Hearing Lan Ruoxin's explanation, Mo Xunhuan patted her thigh to comfort her, "It's okay, there's still plenty of time. Take a break, and we'll pretend together."
"Hmm~"
After resting for half an hour, around one o'clock, the three of them started decorating the Christmas tree.
This job is no easy task; all sorts of wires and colored lights need to be installed and then secured to the tree trunk underwater.
Two people are just right for the meal, but three people would be redundant.
Unfortunately, Lu Qingqing also wanted to get involved, so Mo Xunhuan had to hand over the work to his daughter.
"Why don't you go and rest? The two of us can manage here." Lan Ruoxin said with concern as she watched Mo Xunhuan sitting idly to the side.
"It's okay, I'm not tired right now. By the way, do you have any fruit at home? I'll cut some fruit for you!" Mo Xunhuan suggested.
"Okay, there's fruit in the fridge."
Mo Xunhuan went to the refrigerator, took out some fruit, peeled and cut it into pieces, and arranged it on a large plate to make a fruit platter.
"Let's take a break and have some fruit!"
"Okay!" Lu Qingqing put down the greeting card in her hand, ran over happily, and started eating the fruit.
Seeing that Lan Ruoxin was still busy, Mo Xunhuan picked up a grape, came to her side, and offered the grape to her lips.
"Take a break and have some fruit."
Seeing the grapes offered to her lips, Lan Ruoxin opened her mouth to accept them, even intentionally biting his fingertip lightly, tilting her head back and staring intently at Mo Xunhuan.
This was clearly intentional. Faced with such blatant provocation, Mo Xunhuan was perfectly aware of it. He lightly tapped the tip of her nose with his finger and returned the provocation in kind.
After spending more than half an hour, Lan Ruoxin and Lu Qingqing finally finished decorating the Christmas tree.
"Finally finished!" Lu Qingqing collapsed onto the sofa, exhausted.
"Now you can rest and watch the cartoons you want." Lan Ruoxin got up and handed the remote control to Lu Qingqing.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Lu Qingqing's eyes lit up as soon as she saw the remote control. She eagerly took it, turned on the TV, and selected her favorite cartoon.
"Aren't you going to leave first?" Mo Xunhuan asked.
"Wait a minute, since we're going to your house for the holiday, I should at least take a shower first." Lan Ruoxin winked at him and slowly walked towards the bathroom.
"Dad, there are so many cartoons on the TV at the principal's house!" Just as Mo Xunhuan was staring blankly at Lan Ruoxin's back, Lu Qingqing's exclamation came from behind him.
"Then enjoy watching it, because you won't be able to watch it when you get back." Mo Xunhuan turned around, sat down on the sofa, and watched cartoons with her daughter.
It has to be said that Lan Ruoxin is really rich. She bought all the memberships for the TV shows, especially the children's programs. She bought all the platinum and diamond memberships, leaving Mo Xunhuan speechless.
"Does this guy really like watching anime?"
Little did they know, all of this was done intentionally by Lan Ruoxin, in preparation for a certain day.
………………
"Hey honey, I'll be home early this afternoon. Is there anything you need me to buy?"
Inside Qinghang Company, Lu Xiaoxue was sitting in front of her computer, talking to her husband on her mobile phone.
"There's nothing to buy. I've already ordered the groceries online. You can buy whatever you want, or maybe some wine. The class monitor will be coming tonight." Mo Xunhuan's lazy voice and his daughter's laughter came through the phone.
"Class monitor? What's she doing here?" Lu Xiaoxue frowned slightly, seemingly dissatisfied, but in reality, she was delighted.
She was initially worried about Su Qi's arrival, but now that she knows class monitor Lan Ruoxin is coming, it's like having a check on her, and Su Qi probably won't dare to act recklessly.
Meanwhile, Su Qi, standing to the side, was also surprised. She had originally planned to go to Mo Xunhuan's house on Christmas Eve tonight, get Lu Xiaoxue drunk, and then take advantage of the situation...
But unexpectedly, Lan Ruoxin appeared out of nowhere; this girl actually wanted to come too!
"Our class monitor is also single and spent Christmas Eve alone. I was thinking we could have her come over to our house. You probably don't mind, right?"
"What do you think? Since you've already invited me, what can I say? Looks like I'll have to buy some more wine..."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xiaoxue sighed and shook her head, then looked at Su Qi, "I bought the bar; my husband bought everything else."
"Okay, we'll go to the supermarket to buy some after get off work." Su Qi nodded and turned to leave.
…………
Inside the villa, Mo Xunhuan had just finished making a phone call when he heard the sound of a door opening from the direction of the bathroom.
Turning my head, I saw Lan Ruoxin walking out wrapped in a bath towel. Her wet hair was draped over her shoulders, and her graceful figure appeared even more mysterious and unpredictable under the towel, arousing my curiosity.
While engrossed in watching TV, Mo Xunhuan noticed that Lan Ruoxin had noticed him, so he quickly turned his head back to look at the TV.
This nervous little movement made Lan Ruoxin unable to help but chuckle, and she called out, "Xunhuan~"
"Yes, I'm here! What's up?"
"Could you come and help me?"
"Oh!" Mo Xunhuan quickly got up and went over.
Upon entering Lan Ruoxin's bedroom, a fresh, natural fragrance wafted out, even more intense and alluring than in the living room.
Having just showered, the air was thick with the scent of male hormones, making Mo Xunhuan's heart race.
After closing the door, Mo Xunhuan slowly turned around and saw Lan Ruoxin sitting in front of the dressing table, staring straight at him.
