This Bad Luck is Awesome!

If he wasn’t single, she’d never get so intimate with Chen Mo.

She had no desire to ruin someone else’s relationship.

"He has to be single. Otherwise, how would he dare kiss Luyao in front of the women’s dorm with so many people watching?"

"Everyone has a phone these days. If he really had a girlfriend, he would never be this brazen."

Her roommates all nodded, agreeing that Chen Mo must be single.

"This means what he said was true. He’s only interested in you."

Her roommates then drew their conclusion.

"Mm."

Wei Luyao nodded in agreement.

She figured Chen Mo probably wasn’t just messing with her. He genuinely wasn’t interested in those other girls who tried to add him.

At this thought, she suddenly felt that Chen Mo taking her first kiss wasn’t so hard to accept after all...

...

Chen Mo was driving back. While waiting at a red light, he glanced at his phone.

"Is she at your place?"

He saw that Pan Kejia had sent him a WeChat message a few minutes earlier.

"She’s not."

Chen Mo typed out a reply while waiting for the light to change.

"So, are you coming over?"

Pan Kejia’s reply came back almost instantly.

"? Aren’t you in your ’cooling-off period’?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow. ’What is she getting at?’

"I was in my ’cooling-off period’ yesterday morning too, and that didn’t stop you. Now you remember? Scumbag!"

Pan Kejia sent a voice message, and she sounded indignant.

"Fine. Wait for me."

Seeing that the light was about to change, Chen Mo sent the message.

He put his phone down. As the light turned green, he stepped on the gas and pulled away from the intersection.

However, he wasn’t heading home, but toward Pan Kejia’s apartment.

Come to think of it, Chen Mo hadn’t been over since Pan Kejia’s mother found out she was in a relationship.

He knew why Pan Kejia was asking him to come to her apartment.

After all, she was still in her "cooling-off period," so going to a hotel was a bit inconvenient.

A little over ten minutes later, Chen Mo drove into her residential complex.

He navigated to her front door with practiced ease, entered the password, and let himself in.

Once inside, he found her lounging on the sofa in a black slip dress.

A steaming cup of brown sugar ginger tea sat on the coffee table.

"What’s wrong? Cramps?"

Chen Mo asked with concern, his eyes landing on the cup of brown sugar ginger tea.

"It doesn’t hurt, but I’m used to drinking it. It makes me feel a little more comfortable."

Pan Kejia shook her head. Her cramps used to be quite painful.

But ever since she’d gotten together with Chen Mo, they’d stopped hurting.

It was rather strange.

Chen Mo sat on the sofa, and Pan Kejia immediately leaned over, snuggling into his embrace.

"What’s wrong?"

Chen Mo gently stroked her hair. He sensed that Pan Kejia seemed a little down today.

"I don’t know. But I feel much better now."

Pan Kejia didn’t know what was happening, either. Her period had never made her feel this way before.

But now, nestled in Chen Mo’s arms, she felt her mood improving.

"Can you stay tonight?"

She looked up into Chen Mo’s eyes, blinking her own in a pitiful plea.

"Alright. I’ll stay with you tonight."

Chen Mo leaned down and pressed a kiss to her tempting lips.

Pan Kejia tilted her head up, eagerly returning his kiss.

"Hm?"

Just then, Pan Kejia seemed to notice something and shot him a glare.

"What is it?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, looking at her in surprise.

"This isn’t her scent! You scumbag!"

Pan Kejia instantly understood what was happening and bit his arm in a fit of pique.

She knew Xia Shiqing’s scent. A moment ago, her sharp senses had picked up on someone else’s.

In other words, besides Xia Shiqing and herself, there was a third woman she didn’t know about.

’No wonder Chen Mo said there were more than three of us. I can’t believe he wasn’t just bluffing.’

"So, I should leave?"

Chen Mo shrugged and made a show of getting up to leave.

"I didn’t say anything..."

Pan Kejia grabbed his hand, stopping him from leaving as she mumbled under her breath.

’It wasn’t her place to worry about this, nor did she have the right to.’

’Xia Shiqing was the one who should be worried.’

"See how understanding you can be?"

Chen Mo patted her head and kissed her fair, smooth forehead.

"You threaten to leave at the drop of a hat. Do I have a choice but to be understanding?"

Pan Kejia snuggled into his arms, shooting him a resentful glance.

’She couldn’t control it anyway. As long as Chen Mo made time to be with her, it was enough.’

Hearing this, Chen Mo chuckled. ’She’s really holding a grudge.’

The two of them chatted on the sofa for a while, then she went to her bedroom.

Chen Mo, meanwhile, took a shower in her bathroom.

Afterward, Pan Kejia took the initiative and began to negotiate an "import investment" with Chen Mo.

Her appetite was bigger this time, opening with a figure of two or three hundred million.

But seeing how earnest she was, after some back-and-forth, Chen Mo made the investment.

Once the "import investment" negotiations were concluded, Pan Kejia moved on to actual business.

"My dad said he wants to promote me to supervisor, but I need the performance numbers to back it up."

Pan Kejia rested her head on Chen Mo’s chest, telling him about what her father had said the day before.

"I’ll help you. Don’t worry."

Chen Mo gently caressed her bare shoulder, offering a reassuring smile.

When such an understanding girlfriend asked for his help, he certainly had to lend a hand.

"Mm, I trust you."

Hearing Chen Mo’s words, Pan Kejia felt completely at ease.

’If Chen Mo said he would help her, he absolutely would.’

After all, besides teasing her from time to time, Chen Mo had always kept his promises to her.

After cuddling and talking for a while, Pan Kejia fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Mo held her in his arms as they both drifted off to sleep.

「The next day, Sunday.」

Chen Mo didn’t go home, staying at her apartment to keep her company.

He cooked a meal, and after they ate, they snuggled on the sofa, scrolling through the news on their phones.
