CH 143

In the bedroom, Xia Weilan opened Mo Beichen’s suitcase and took out his pajamas.

She never expected that what she had prepared for him at noon was actually being used at the Old Mansion now.

Mo Beichen sat on the sofa, unbuttoning his sleeves.

“Hubby, is it really okay for you to postpone your work?” Xia Weilan looked at his elegant side profile. At this moment, Mo Beichen looked a bit more laid-back than usual. The light in the room reflected on his dark hair and his eyes were as bright as the stars.

Mo Beichen lifted his eyes to look at her. He did not answer her question, but nodded and said, “Come here.”

Xia Weilan walked to his side. He grasped her wrist and pulled her closer so that she sat on his lap. Xia Weilan looked at him in surprise.

“Do you know why I postponed the business trip?”

Mo Beichen held her wrist and didn’t let go. His bottomless pupils fixed their stares in her eyes as if they were trying to see through her soul.

Xia Weilan blinked and said helplessly, “Because Ouyang Mingqi took me into his car?”

“And then? What did he say to you, or did to you?” Mo Beichen’s tone was clear and light. But those words came with deterrent effects, which made Xia Weilan not dare to answer him indiscriminately.

She recalled that inside the car, Ouyang Mingqi said that he wanted to be her lover. She couldn’t help frowning but she didn’t dare to cite his original words. So she said tactfully, “He said he likes me.”

Mo Beichen looked at her in silence. His eyes deepened as he knew that she was hiding something. He couldn’t help but continue to ask with displeasure, “What else?”

Xia Weilan blinked, “There’s nothing else. I told him to let me get out of the car, and then I came back.”

Xia Weilan obviously didn’t do anything wrong. But at this instant, she felt as if she was being interrogated for being caught red-handed committing adultery. She couldn’t help but take a deep breath. She looked into Mo Beichen’s eyes, and blinked innocently.

“It seems like he really doesn’t want his life anymore. How dare he lay his hands on my people!” Mo Beichen said calmly. But a hostile aura suddenly enveloped him.

“Hubby, you’re the only one I love. So, of course, I rejected him immediately.” Xia Weilan quickly stated her standpoint.

Mo Beichen toyed with her palm. He suddenly pressed her back on the sofa, staring into her eyes deeply. He said with an ambiguous hint, “Love is not shown by talking, it’s shown by making.”

As soon as he finished saying those words, he lowered his head and sealed her lips.

“Mmm!” Xia Weilan didn’t expect Mo Beichen to take action without any notice. She couldn’t help but blush and she felt her heart racing.

Mo Beichen’s kiss seized every part of her lips. His kiss was passionate and yet possessive as he sucked and crushed every inch of her lips.

After the kiss, he gently hugged her and sat on his lap. He buried his head in her neck and took in the fragrance of her body. He narrowed his eyes, making a dangerous look with his eyes.

“It seems that he has been too free lately, I‘ll find something to keep him preoccupied.” Mo Beichen suddenly said coldly. His desire for her flashes dangerously in his eyes. He traced his big palm along her inner thigh and slid his palm in.

Xia Weilan’s body went stiff. She felt the roughness of his fingertips, trailing on her skin and slid in between her most sensitive spot, touching her.

She bit her lower lip and blushed.

Since when did Mo Beichen act so straightforward when doing this sort of thing? He’s starting to get bolder now.

‘Knock~knock~’ The sound of knocking on the door suddenly broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.

Xia Weilan jumped from his lap in fright. She glanced at the door, and said cautiously, “Is that Grandpa looking for me?”

Xia Weilan hurriedly straightened her clothes that were in disarray and looked at Mo Beichen with her heart beating wildly.

Mo Beichen was a little annoyed. He got up and walked to the door. When he opened the door, he frowned when he saw the person at the door, “What’s the matter?”

“Beichen-ge!” Xia Ruolin stood at the door gazing at him tenderly with her beautiful eyes. She whispered alluringly, “I’m here to send you supper.”

When Xia Ruolin spoke, she placed her whole heart on him. She noticed that he seemed to be in a bad mood. She secretly wondered if he was having a conflict with Xia Weilan. Otherwise, why would he open the door with such a sour face?

Mo Beichen’s cold, desolated gaze fell on her hand. She was holding a serving tray with a bowl of porridge. It was steaming with white smoke, bringing a trace of heat. Mo Beichen took a step back, feeling extremely disgusted.

“What’s the matter?” Xia Weilan appeared from behind him. Seeing this, she quickly took her tray and said, “Thanks, have a good rest.”

Xia Weilan closed the door with a ‘bang’ which interrupted Xia Ruolin who was still hesitating on what to say next. Xia Weilan cut her off, leaving her standing outside the door.

Xia Weilan walked to the bathroom with a cold expression. She poured the food into the toilet bowl and flushed it.

While Xia Weilan was doing all this, Mo Beichen was watching her series of actions. The annoyance of being interrupted just now disappeared immediately.

Xia Weilan came out of the bathroom and threw the plate on the trash can. She wiped her hands in disgust and looked at Mo Beichen, “Beware of poison!”

Mo Beichen smiled and walked towards her, “Since the matter is resolved, shall we continue with where we left off?”

When Xia Weilan heard his words, she blushed. He trapped her and grabbed a strand of her hair while looking into her eyes ambiguously.

Although it was obvious that he hadn’t done anything, Xia Weilan’s legs went jelly just from the gaze of his affectionate eyes. She helplessly pushed him away, “Wait, I haven’t eaten yet. I’m a little hungry now.”

Mo Beichen was dumbfounded when he heard this. He had no choice but to ask, “What would you like to eat?”

At this time, the servants of the Xia family were already off-duty. Xia Weilan suddenly smirked, “Will you cook whatever I feel like having?”

“Let’s see what you want.” Mo Beichen fixed her hair behind her ear.

“Hmm…” Xia Weilan sat on the side of the bed and swung her legs while thinking. She said, “Actually, I like to eat whatever you cook.”

Mo Beichen waited patiently and wondered if she was taking her sweet time to come up with something to give him a hard time. He wasn’t expecting such a reply from her. He was stunned by Xia Weilan’s reply. He was amused and said, “Give me a minute, I will go down and have a look.”

A dim light lit the corridor leading to the kitchen. It was dark and quiet at this instant. Mo Beichen walked into the kitchen and reached out to open the refrigerator door to check what was inside.

Meanwhile, Xia Ruolin was in her sexy pajamas, having trouble putting herself to sleep. When she heard the movement from outside, she immediately came out to check. She couldn’t help but feel astonished by what she saw.

In the middle of the night with Mo Beichen, alone in the kitchen. Isn’t this the best time for her to be alone with him?

While Mo Beichen was thinking about what to cook, he heard faint footsteps approaching him. He thought that it was Xia Weilan. He said without lifting his gaze, “Give me a moment. I’ll go up to accompany you when I’m done.”
