CHAPTER 242: CHAPTER 204 THE MOMENT OF WITNESSING THE MIRACLE HAS ARRIVED_2

Li Si looked at the deep gaze exchanged between the man and the monkey with amusement. "Xiao Guai, this is my... my husband!" She was at a loss for how to introduce him. Should she say he’s called Leng Mochen? But this guy had practically swapped his core!

Leng Mochen grinned happily, "Little lady, you’re being so good today. I’ll give you a lollipop tonight!"

Xiao Guai tilted his head. Husband? His name is Husband? Then I can call him that too! But why does he get to be ’Old’ something while I’m ’Little’ something? That’s so unfair!!

The actual owner here, Li Si, oblivious to the feelings of both monkey and man, enthusiastically introduced the two, and even encouraged Leng Mochen to pet Xiao Guai’s sleek fur.

"He’s very well-behaved! Go ahead, give him a pat!"

Leng Mochen looked at Xiao Guai with pleasant surprise. He was someone who liked small animals but had always found the hassle of raising one too bothersome.

Now, seeing such a spiritually radiant monkey, he couldn’t help but take a liking to it. He reached out and gently stroked its back. At first, Xiao Guai stared closely and guardedly at him, but after a while, it closed its eyes in comfort.

"Honey, how old is this monkey?"

He estimated Xiao Guai must weigh around fifty pounds, though he wasn’t sure how long the monkey had been with them. Its fur was glossy and its eyes sparkled with spiritual energy—easy to love at a glance.

When he saw Li Si smiling sweetly, his heart felt unusually at ease. As long as the two of them were together openly and sincerely, the Leng Family—or anything else—was insignificant.

Li Si thought about it for a moment before answering his question: "I bought him from a monkey trainer the year I met you. I’d guess he’s several years old by now. But, it seems as though he’s mutated! Feel the spot on his forehead—it’s kind of sunken."

He reached out to touch it and remarked in confusion, "It really is! What’s this all about?"

"It’s one of those inexplicable phenomena! I’m wondering if he’s going to open his ’heavenly eye’ or something! I remember reading a novel in the past called *Zhuxian*. The monkey in it evolved or transformed, I think.

When I read novels back in the day, I dreamed of raising a monkey someday. And to think—it actually came true!"

Li Si excitedly reminisced about the past. Back then, before knowing he had also reincarnated, there were many things she didn’t dare to say. She even had to be cautious about certain trending internet terms.

Now, things were different. She could talk about whatever she wanted from the future era with no reservations, and he could instantly understand her. This felt so liberating!

"Forget it, we can’t explain it anyway—might as well just go with the flow! Now, since I know this, we can openly raise him! Let’s just get a registration and permit!"

Just as he suggested this, he was smothered with hugs and a series of excited kisses. While kissing him, she exclaimed joyfully, "Hubby, you’re the best! Nom nom! Xiao Guai can finally see the light of day!"

She was thrilled. She’d dreamed of this day for so long but didn’t expect it to arrive so quickly! With Xiao Guai out in the open, she could buy him loads of outfits to wear and take him out to play. Oh, yeah! She was so happy she could barely restrain herself from pouncing on someone immediately.

He pretended to cooperate begrudgingly, all the while secretly delighted. Just as he was about to take things a step further, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the monkey gazing at them both with intense curiosity.

Suddenly, he regretted his earlier decision. Was this not like inserting a 2,000-watt light bulb between him and his beloved?

Li Si smirked mischievously, her expression resembling that of a sly fox. Seeing his look of regret, she gave Xiao Guai an approving glance. You’re promising, little guy!

And tonight—let’s see how you try to act up! Hee hee. I’ll put Xiao Guai right between us...

"Honey, can we take back what I just said?"

"No way! A gentleman’s word is like a whip to a galloping horse!"

"What? That’s not..."

"A real man keeps his word!"

"Fine! Then how about we head to the bedroom for a nap, letting Xiao Guai settle in and get used to the place?"

"NO!"

Thus, the bittersweet yet delightful daily life of Li Si, Leng Mochen, and Xiao Guai officially unfolded...

Over on their side, the alarms were silenced, and the skies cleared after the storm. But as for Mrs. Leng, her skies remained overcast with lingering drizzle. She was so furious she nearly burst a lung. What utter nonsense! Just because she acknowledged a grandson, she has to sever ties?

She truly had raised a wonderful son. And that Li Si—at first, she thought the girl was decent, but now she realized she was quite calculating. Look at how nervous she had made her son! It’s as if he’s scared she might ignore him. Could he be any less ambitious?

A dignified CEO of a company, yet terrified that some girl from a small household might leave him? What kind of ridiculous situation was this? In Beijing, she could pick out any girl with better qualifications than Li Si, and they’d all be superior! Yet he insists on her?! It’s just so exasperating!
