Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 802 - 719: Leave It to Fate

On the second day of the New Year, Li Si and Leng Mochen finally returned to their own home with Buding.

After taking a bath, Li Si looked at her son sleeping on the small bed, lovingly touched his little ear, then stretched lazily. There’s no place like home for comfort.

It’s just like the old saying goes, "A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as one’s own humble nest."

The old house and the Leng Family have everything, except the familiar and cozy feel of her own home.

Leng Mochen also came out of the other bathroom after bathing, amused by her satisfied look, teasing, "What? Doing warm-up exercises for later, huh?"

Li Si gave him a sidelong glance and sat at the dressing table to start applying skincare products.

She was not going to pay attention to him!

Leng Mochen persistently moved closer to her, vigorously rubbing his half-dry short hair, "Not paying attention to me?"

Li Si poured some lotion onto her face, gently patting it: "Why should I pay attention to you?"

Don’t think she didn’t understand the deeper meaning behind his words earlier on; staying at someone else’s place for the past few days hadn’t stopped him.

Now that she was finally back home, couldn’t she have some real rest?

Even work has holidays; she played with the adults and kids during the day and had to sleep with him at night. Was it easy?

He wasn’t angry, cheekily leaning on her back: "Doing what I want!"

On the fifth day, Bai Shasha and Xu Er returned from their New Year visits in North City, and a few friends gathered together for a lively get-together.

During the meal, everyone talked about their wishes for the new year. Li Si suggested, "Why don’t we write our wishes on a piece of paper first, and reveal them later, how about it?"

As soon as she said it, Bai Shasha responded with unusual enthusiasm.

"Great! Si’s idea is fantastic! Also, let’s test the tacit understanding between our three pairs! The losing pair must accept a penalty!"

Xu Er confidently clapped his hands in agreement, believing he and Bai Shasha were definitely on the same wavelength.

Leng Mochen just smiled without saying a word, giving Li Si a look that made her return a playful glance.

Only Long Wu thought this idea was not great, estimating that he and Su Meng wouldn’t match. So the penalty might end up falling on them as a couple.

This gang, couldn’t they let him off during the New Year?

But the minority obeys the majority, and he couldn’t not play even if he wanted to say no.

They got the service staff to bring over paper and pens, and everyone sat separately, writing their New Year wishes.

Long Wu tried to sneak over to Peanuts side to peek but was caught by Bai Shasha, "Brother Wu! No cheating!"

"No way!" Long Wu returned helplessly.

He gave Leng Mochen a look as if to say, see how your wife is giving me a hard time!

Leng Mochen glanced at him lightly, continued writing a few strokes, and then folded it up.

When the answers were revealed, except for Li Si and Leng Mochen both wishing for everything to go smoothly this year; Xu Er and Bai Shasha wanted to have a baby in 2008; Long Wu and Su Meng were clearly not in sync, Long Wu wrote for family harmony, while Su Meng wrote for Peanut’s healthy growth.

Long Wu was frustrated, "A bet’s a bet! You guys bring it, my Meng Meng and I aren’t afraid!"

Considering the punishment ideas wouldn’t be too harsh because Li Si was there, he felt somewhat assured.

Su Meng had the same thought, but there was still a slight disappointment in her heart that only she and Long Wu lacked tacit understanding among the three pairs. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Unexpectedly, they didn’t even have that small tacit understanding now!

Li Si and Bai Shasha exchanged a playful look and wrote the previously discussed words on two slips of paper.

"Draw one!"

Long Wu was reluctantly, "At least let us know what punishments are written on those papers, right?"

Li Si placed the folded slips on the table, then smilingly said, "Alright! Brother Wu! Don’t say I didn’t help you! One slip says to do 100 push-ups with Su Meng on your back..."

Long Wu couldn’t stand it and interrupted her, "Sisi! You can’t play like that! A hundred push-ups! Do you think Brother Wu is a fitness expert or what?"

Su Meng also felt the penalty was tough, "Sisi, maybe reduce the number a bit? Let’s go easy for the New Year, okay?"

Li Si mischievously laughed, "Ah! Meng Meng! You’re showing concern! Shasha! See, when it comes down to it, couples stick together, looking out for Brother Wu!"

Bai Shasha chimed in, "Right! Si didn’t even finish saying the first half, and you two were both riled up! Truly in sync!"

Long Wu and Su Meng had no choice but to remain silent, waiting for Li Si to continue revealing the other punishment.

Though they held no illusions in their hearts, these people must have conspired in advance to mess with them!

Li Si held back a laugh, shaking the slip in front of everyone, "Ta-da! Brother Wu, Su Meng, don’t say I didn’t help you, huh! This punishment, compared to that one, is easier, that one is physically taxing, this one, well, requires a lot of talking!"

Bai Shasha couldn’t hold back her laughter; she had discussed this fun idea with Li Si ahead of time.

Xu Er was stunned by her laughter and looked over the slip along with Long Wu.

Long Wu and Su Meng were also intensely curious, what kind of punishment could make Bai Shasha laugh that hard.

The slip of white paper read neatly: tongue-kiss for five minutes!

Oh my! Su Meng immediately glared at Li Si and Bai Shasha in anger, certain that the two had colluded!

These two scoundrels! Didn’t they consider her a good sister?

Long Wu was delighted! Leng Er and Xu Er were truly his pals, even their wives were looking out for him!

Tongue-kissing for five minutes, just thinking about it made his long dry lips desperate for moisture!

Li Si, seeing the desired effect, continued, "But! In the end, Brother Wu, you and Meng Meng, it depends on which one you draw, haha?"

Long Wu blew lightly on his hand, "It is what it is! I’ll let fate decide! Meng Meng, how about you?"

His eyes lit up as he looked at Su Meng, unable to bear Long Wu’s eyes shining like light bulbs, she nodded gently, "Me too!"

She understood in her heart why Li Si and Bai Shasha wanted to do this.

Ultimately, it was about hoping she and Long Wu would ease their relationship.

Suppressing his excitement, Long Wu followed Li Si’s requirements, choosing a slip after they shuffled and reshuffled them a few times.

When Long Wu held his breath and opened the chosen slip, the room fell silent.

Everyone was waiting for his final answer; Su Meng’s heartbeat no longer felt like her own.

Just thinking about if it happened to be the five minutes one, and in front of these people, made her cheeks burn fiercely.

Li Si and Bai Shasha exchanged a victorious glance, ready to watch the spectacle.

Leng Mochen curled his lips seeing Li Si, he already knew about her little conspiracy with Bai Shasha.

However, he didn’t intervene to warn Long Wu, aiming for this perfectly delayed surprise effect.

Xu Er brightly watched the slip in Long Wu’s hand, eagerly picking up the other small slip on the table intending to open it...
