The matter of advancing the wedding had been preliminarily agreed upon with the Qiao family. It was scheduled for the 28th of October.
Returning to the Oriental Pearl that evening, Yun Mo told Qiaoqiao that he had some matters to deal with and asked her to take a bath first, then he went to his study alone.
When he entered, he even specifically locked the door behind him.
He only went over to the window of the study and dialed Deng Jiaru's number.
As soon as Deng Jiaru picked up the phone, she asked, "Amo, are you and Qiaoqiao planning to return to the old house this weekend?"
Yun Mo didn't answer immediately, but he noticed something odd in Deng Jiaru's tone of voice, as though she was speaking with food in her mouth.
He answered off-point, "Mom, are you eating something?"
"Yes, tangyuan (rice balls)."
"Are you indulging in Osmanthus Frog Ovary Rice Balls again?"
"Savvy."
"Mom, you're getting on in years. Try to cut down on sugar. It can lead to high blood sugar."
