Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

Chapter 282 Birthday Party Ends

```

After hearing what Sister Xiao Li said, Mo Jihua was stunned for a moment before returning to a normal expression.

"Right, I'm already getting on in years. How could I not get married? My parents are nearly dying of anxiety. I even came back recently just for matchmaking. I might get very busy soon, and if I meet the right one, I may just go ahead and get a marriage certificate, right?"

Sister Xiao Li painted herself as very pitiable, and seeing her like that, it seemed Mo Jihua had made up his mind as well.

"Though you're getting married, you'd better put in some effort with your husband, pick carefully, and don't end up with any damaged goods," he said.

"I actually have picked someone out. It's just that I don't know if that person is willing."

"Who could possibly have won Miss Li's favor? How could he not want to? If he doesn't, I'll go beat him up for you."

Mo Jihua took a sip of the drink from his glass and then chatted idly with Sister Xiao Li.

All of a sudden, Sister Xiao Li put down her glass and looked at Mo Jihua with a serious face. Mo Jihua had a bad feeling.

"The one I fancy is you. We've known each other for such a long time, can't you feel my feelings for you? Initially, I went abroad to give you two space, but I never expected your progress to be so slow. Since Han Xuewei is now married, maybe you should just settle for me," she said.

Mo Jihua swallowed hard, unable to believe what he was hearing. Had Sister Xiao Li really fallen for him? How could that be possible?

"Sister Xiao Li, this isn't the kind of thing we should joke about," he cautioned.

Mo Jihua avoided her gaze, not wishing to address the matter directly.

After all, they might even end up not being able to remain friends.

Seeing Mo Jihua's reaction, Sister Xiao Li's eyes grew dim, so she started laughing heartily again.

"You didn't really believe I liked you, did you? If I liked you, how could I possibly have gone abroad? And why would I have let you be with my little sister? Alright, it was just a joke. Don't be so serious. How was my acting?

Did I fool you?"

Sister Xiao Li patted Mo Jihua's shoulder twice before turning to leave.

As she left, a tear fell from the corner of her eye, but nobody saw.

It seems it just wasn't meant to be after all, so she might as well leave it up to fate.

If she couldn't marry Mo Jihua, then it didn't matter who she married, did it?

"Little sister, I have some things I need to take care of, so I might leave earlier. You all keep having fun. I'll come to your house in a couple of days. Remember to welcome me and bring out all three treasures for me to see. I haven't yet met my goddaughters."

Han Xuewei was somewhat reluctant to see Sister Xiao Li leave so soon.

She wanted to invite Sister Xiao Li to stay at her house tonight.

But knowing that Lin Yi definitely wouldn't agree, since he was very clingy.

"Sister Xiao Li, you're leaving so soon? Why don't you stay a little longer next time? We haven't got together in such a long time."

Han Xuewei tugged playfully at Sister Xiao Li's arm, swaying it back and forth, hoping she would agree.

"I knew seeing you today would be exactly like this. Come on, it's not like we won't get another chance to meet. Didn't I say? I'm not leaving again, which means we'll have plenty of opportunities to see each other in the future. But I really do have something I need to take care of today and must leave."

Sister Xiao Li affectionately ruffled Han Xuewei's hair, then said her goodbyes to everyone and left.

Mo Jihua watched Sister Xiao Li's receding figure, lost in thought.

"Husband, I always thought Teacher Mo would end up with Sister Xiao Li. I didn't expect that in the end, she would go abroad," said Han Xue.

Lin Yi had realized from the start that there was something fishy between the two of them, because the way you look at someone you love just can't lie.

"Maybe she had her own reasons,"

Lin Yi noticed that Han Xuewei's friends seemed to especially enjoy ruffling her hair.

"But this time, for what purpose exactly did Sister Li return, she hasn't mentioned it to us either. I hope Sister Li and Teacher Mo can end up together, they really are quite suited for each other."

When mentioning the two of them again, Han Xuewei's eyes lit up with a 'shipping' kind of gleam.

"That's really up to the two of them, we can't interfere. It's also getting late, shall we head back? The child is still at home."

Han Xuewei glanced at the time and was surprised to find it was already past ten o'clock, no wonder Sister Li had to leave.

Since it was so, they should also be on their way.

"Teacher Mo, happy birthday. We're going to head off as well since the child is still home."

Han Xuewei, arm in arm with Lin Yi, walked over to Mo Jihua, who smiled and nodded.

Following that, Han Xuewei and Lin Yi left together.

When they returned home, all three babies were already asleep, unusually well-behaved today, with no crying or fussing.

The babysitter left upon seeing the homeowners return.

"We really can't thank you enough for this period. Without you, looking after three kids, we wouldn't be able to manage. After all, with so many things to handle, if you wish to ask for a raise, you can talk to us; we will agree."

Before the babysitter left, Han Xuewei stopped her, wanting to discuss the matter of salary.

After all, taking care of three children is quite a hassle.

Handling the three kids alone for a night nearly exhausted Han Xuewei to no end.

Not to mention the babysitter, who looked after the children all day, every day.

"The salary you're offering is really quite generous already, I have no reason to ask for a raise, especially since this salary is almost four times higher than the norm."

The babysitter laughed heartily.

Truth be told, the pay was so generous that she felt too embarrassed to bring up a raise herself.

And getting a raise after such a short period might also invite envy from her peers.

"So it's like that, huh? To be honest, we aren't too familiar with these things. Alright then, there's nothing else; you can go ahead and leave."

So the salary is enough? Han Xuewei laughed awkwardly and then let the babysitter leave.

Seeing Han Xuewei act like this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and sympathy.

Had Han Xuewei not checked the usual rates for babysitters before hiring one?

Lin Yi had thought Han Xuewei had done her research, which was why she had been so decisive about the salary.

"It feels like we might have spent too much money. No matter, the babysitter is quite competent, and she has even helped us tidy up the home."

Fearing that Lin Yi might chide her, Han Xuewei could only laugh awkwardly and then offered an explanation.

Lin Yi simply indulgently stroked Han Xuewei's head, then carried her off to their bedroom to sleep.
