Xia Ruolin widened her eyes in surprise when she heard his words, “Beichen-ge, what are you doing? I’ll join you!”
Xia Ruolin boldly approached him, but when she was about to touch him, he suddenly dodged. He shut the refrigerator door and stared emotionlessly at Xia Ruolin. His cold eyes were obviously giving her a warning.
Xia Ruolin froze on the spot.
“Beichen-ge, could it be that Xia Weilan drove you out of the room because I only prepared supper for you? Did she order you to cook for her?”
Xia Ruolin looked at him while stammering. Her misty eyes were filled with distress as she stared at him, “How can she order you like that? This is absurd! Beichen-ge, let me help you.”
After she finished speaking, she stepped into the kitchen. A scent of perfume followed her trail, which was very bewitching.
The collar of her pajamas was revealing and the skirt was so short that she was exposing some parts of her while she walked around the kitchen.
Mo Beichen frowned and took a step back, “Since you like to cook, you can have the kitchen.”
After he finished his words, Mo Beichen left without looking back, as if she was a pile of rubbish.
The rims of Xia Ruolin’s eye immediately reddened. By the time she reacted, she realized that cold tears were hanging on her cheeks.
No matter how tolerant she is toward being shunned by the man that she loved, she could still feel the pain because she’s made of flesh and blood.
Why is Mo Beichen still refusing to look at her even though she is already acting humble around him?
Why is it different when he is with Xia Weilan?
Why her?
In the bedroom, Xia Weilan was lying on the bed, playing on her phone. When she heard the door open, she quickly put down her mobile phone and sat up, looking at the door in anticipation.
Mo Beichen closed the door with a sour face and walked toward her.
“Where’s the food?” Xia Weilan was a little disappointed when she saw him coming in empty-handed. Her stomach was rumbling.
Mo Beichen didn’t bother to explain. He picked up a coat for her from the bedside, “Put it on. I’ll take you out to eat.”
Xia Weilan was a little disappointed, but she quickly put on the coat and followed him.
Xia Roulin was nowhere to be seen.
After getting in the car, Mo Beichen took Xia Weilan to the restaurant that he usually went to.
“I didn’t expect that this restaurant would still be open at this hour!” Xia Weilan followed Mo Beichen up the elevator, feeling a little surprised. After all, it was already past midnight and many shops were closed.
“This restaurant served some nice dishes. It’s Nan Fengyan’s favorite place for supper.” Mo Beichen explained.
The elevator door opened. The moment the manager saw Mo Beichen, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically, “Mr. Mo, you’re here. Master Nanfeng is already here. It’s still the usual private room no.8. This way, please.”
" "
Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan looked at each other. Xia Weilan said in surprise, “Do you mean Nan Fengyan?”
Isn’t Nan Fengyan still in the hospital?
“Yes, he came with a young lady.”
Xia Weilan found it very strange. Could it be that Nan Fengyan couldn’t stand the loneliness and secretly met up with some young girl in the middle of the night?
“We’re not here to meet him. We’ll take a separate room.” Xia Weilan said immediately.
“Okay, please come with me.” Without further adieu, the manager led them to private room No. 7.
When they walked past private room No. 8, Xia Weilan curiously peeked through the window. Nan Fengyan’s wheelchair was placed aside and he was leaning toward a woman in front of him as he said something with a coquettish expression.
“It’s Rui Li and Nan Fengyan!” Xia Weilan said in surprise.
Rui Li heard some noise and lifted her gaze to find Xia Weilan.
She walked toward the door and opened it delightfully, “Weilan, Mo-ge, what brings you here?.”
“Haha!” Xia Weilan laughed dryly, “We came for some supper.”
“There is no need for another room. We’ll eat here.” Mo Beichen walked in first.
Nan Fengyan was ordering food. When he saw Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen, his face turned shady.
Two gigantic light bulbs. (T/N: light bulbs refers to the unwanted guest)
“Are you discharged?” Mo Beichen sat down beside him and casually picked up the menu.
“Not yet! It’s just that I’m so bored staying in the hospital. So, I came out for supper.” Nan Fengyan said.
Rui Li joined the conversation. She sounded displeased, “He’s restless. He actually called me in the middle of the night to come out for supper.”
Nan Fengyan’s romantic plan was ruined and he looked at Rui Li sadly.
Xia Weilan laughed as she also couldn’t sit still and made Mo Beichen bring her out for supper.
They quickly ordered some dishes, and the waiter brought the food in.
Nan Fengyan said as he ate, “The suspect who dared to harm me better be sentenced for several years. Otherwise, it’s not enough to dismiss my anger.”
“Isn’t this a blessing in disguise? Are you still furious?” Mo Beichen raised his wine glass with one hand and leaned on the sofa casually. He looked a little more relaxed than usual.
Nan Fengyan secretly glanced at Rui Li and a smile slowly formed on his lips. It was indeed a blessing in disguise.
Rui Li saw that Nan Fengyan was in his leisure and carefree mode. She suddenly said, “It seems that you are already feeling much better. There’s no need for me to take care of you for the next few days.”
Nan Fengyan immediately dismissed his smile, “Just take a look at my feet, I still need to be in a wheelchair. I haven’t recovered yet.”
“The wheelchair does not stop you anyway. You can still leave the hospital at any time.” Rui Li stared at him coldly.
Nan Fengyan was crying without tears. He was upset by Rui Li’s lack of empathy and the fact that she wanted to get rid of him. He said annoyingly, “Okay, you can send me back to the villa tonight. There’s no need to go back to the hospital.”
“Okay, the servants will take care of you,” Rui LI said without hesitation.
Nan Fengyan took a gulp of wine. Is Rui Li implying that couldn’t wait to get rid of him, so she doesn’t need to care about his injuries after this and let the servants attend to him?
The situation is getting a little awkward.
Xia Weilan could only pretend that she didn’t notice the smell of gunpowder in their conversation.
After that, Mo Beichen and Nan Fengyan started talking about business matters.
Xia Weilan chatted with Rui Li about some of the things at home.
“Things are going well at home. But my father still doesn’t know that the supermarkets were sold. I’m afraid he can’t take in the news well.” When Rui Li mentioned this, she frowned slightly.
Nan Fengyan was a little angry at first. But after seeing Rui Li like this, He helplessly felt distressed again.
Over the past few days, Nan Fengyan learned that Rui Li was not only indifferent to him, but to everyone else. Because her parents were always busy with work and she was sent to a semi-sealed martial arts school when she was very young, she lacked warmth.
“You haven’t told her that the company is still theirs and there is no change of ownership at all? Not only that, you’ve recruited a manager to manage the business and it’s doing well now.” Mo Beichen asked Nan Fengyan in a low voice.
Nan Fengyan curled his lips, “I’ll find a chance to tell her.”
Xia Weilan watched as Rui Li gulped down several glasses in a bad mood. She knew that her family matters were not going well recently, so she drank with her.
Rui Li couldn’t drink as much as before, “I’m drunk. If Nan Fengyan is to get as drunk as a pig, how do you suppose we can go back?”
After Rui Li finished her words, she looked helplessly at Nan Fengyan. Shaking her wine glass.
“You can drink without worry. You’re drunk. There’s a lot of servants around my house.” Nan Fengyan couldn’t help but say.
Rui Li raised her eyebrows when she heard this. But after all, she didn’t drink much.
