In the President’s office of Mo Corps, Mo Beichen received a text message on his phone. He was stunned when he read the content of the text message. He read it a couple of times,
‘I’ve made up my mind. I can be with you as long as you don’t get married. I’m now at Yun Meng Hotel. Come over. I’m waiting for you.”
And after that, it’s a text that 2nd Master Xia wrote himself, ‘This is what Xia Weilan sent to Ouyang Mingqi and we’ve caught them red-handed meeting each other at the hotel. You should really keep an eye on your wife.”
Mo Beichen read the message with an unspeakable expression.
That evening, at Fairview Imperial Court.
The moment Xia Weilan got into the house, she saw Mo Beichen sitting on the couch dressed in black. She sensed the coldness in the atmosphere. Is Mo Beichen angry?
“I’m back.” Xia Weilan walked over. She had a hunch that Mo Beichen believed 2nd Master Xia’s words.
Mo Beichen lifted his eyes and glanced at her. He wore a complicated expression and he asked her, “Did you meet Ouyang Mingqi alone?”
He had already watched the CCTV footage from the hotel. It was indeed true that after Xia Weilan went into the hotel room, Ouyang Mingqi also went in.
“I didn’t invite him. He appeared all of a sudden.” Xia Weilan looked into his eyes. She straightened her back as she spoke and she had no intention of hiding anything.
“Then what does this text message mean?” Mo Beichen threw his mobile phone across the table.
He has read the text message many times.
He kept telling himself that this is not from Xia Weilan. But the truth is, it was obvious that this text message was sent from her phone number. If it wasn’t from her, who else could it be?
“If I said it wasn’t from me, would you believe it?” Xia Weilan’s heart went cold. After being married for a year, did he still don’t understand her?
Xia Weilan found it odd too. She was alone at that time. Could it be that someone took her phone and sent a message to others? But this is not possible too, because, during that time, she never left her phone unattended.
A complicated look flashed across Xia Weilan’s face. She was aware that whatever she said now could not prove anything as there was no evidence to say that she didn’t do it.
Sure enough, Mo Beichen looked at her indifferently. His expression grew even colder, “Is this your explanation?”
As the saying goes, ‘Seeing is believing.’
Mo Beichen really didn’t know whether he should trust Xia Weilan’s words that were full of flaws.
If he says he trusts her, he felt stupid of himself.
If he says he doesn’t trust her, but he hoped that what she said was true.
Mo Beichen kept quiet for a few seconds. He suddenly shook his head and laughed, “You said you didn’t send the text message. So, why are you hugging Ouyang Mingqi?”
Mo Beichen didn’t listen to 2nd Master Xia words but verified with the servant at the hotel. However, the outcome was the same as what 2nd Master Xia said.
Thinking of this, Mo Beichen suddenly got furious. He grabbed Xia Weilan’s arms and stared at her disappointedly, “Which hand did you use to hug him?”
Jealousy had blinded Mo Beichen’s eyes and he couldn’t see the pain in Xia Weilan’s eyes.
It seemed that Mo Beichen won’t believe her anymore.
She had no evidence to prove that she did not send the text message to Ouyang Mingqi. And she couldn’t argue the fact that Ouyang Mingqi really did hug her.
Seeing that Xia Weilan was calm and speechless, Mo Beichen suddenly let go of her arms and walked away angrily.
He was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions in front of her.
Xia Weilan blinked and her eyes reddened. She sniffed.
She doesn’t know what’s going on today. Why is this happening to her? Who is actually framing her?
Xia Weilan couldn’t sleep the whole night and Mo Beichen never returned home.
The next morning, Xia Weilan woke up in a daze. She heard some noises. When she opened her eyes, she saw Mo Beichen walking out of the bathroom.
She was stunned and immediately sat up.
Has Mo Beichen come around about it?
But the next second, Mo Beichen walked to the closet and took out a tie. He said indifferently, “I’m coming home to change my clothes and go to work.”
Mo Beichen didn’t say anything else. He was to leave after he took his tie.
Xia Weilan was irritated by Mo Beichen’s cold attitude. She got furious and yelled on the spot, “Can’t your heart feel what my feelings are toward you?”
The image of Mo Beichen’s back is like a mountain. It was unshakably tall and lofty. He didn’t turn around, but said in a low voice, “What about the picture of you and Ouyang Mingqi at the entrance of the bridal shop?”
Once, twice, three times.
With so much evidence adding up, how can Mo Beichen believe her?
Not long ago, someone sent a photo of Xia Weilan and Ouyang Mingqi leaving the bridal shop together to Mo Beichen’s phone. At that time, he hadn’t taken it seriously. Although, in the photo, it looked as though Xia Weilan is admiring Ouyang Mingqi.
But Mo Beichen felt that it should be a misunderstanding, so he didn’t take it seriously.
But what about what happened yesterday?
Xia Weilan sent a text message and didn’t admit it, and she didn’t bother to explain about the muddled relationship with Ouyang Mingqi.
Xia Weilan only told him to look at her feelings for him.
Photo? Xia Weilan thought for a long time. She recalled that three months ago, Liu Yinyin asked her to collect her dress from the bridal shop.
So the person behind all this had actually spent a few months laying the trap to frame her.
" "
Who is this person? Is it Liu Yinyin?
Xia Weilan already had a candidate that she is suspicious of. Her expression turned unpredictable.
Mo Beichen noticed her expression and she thought that she was feeling diffident.
“Who sent you the photo?” Xia Weilan lifted her gaze and asked all of a sudden.
“Who do you think it is?” Mo Beichen was stunned. He still doesn’t know who sent those pictures to him because the other sender used a temporary mobile phone number.
None of them wanted to take a step back and they didn’t say anything else to each other.
Mo Beichen was the first to walk out of the room and slammed the door hard behind him.
The loud noise made Xia Weilan tremble.
When Xia Weilan went downstairs, Mo Beichen was no longer there.
The bowls and chopsticks on the dining table weren’t touched at all. This means that in order not to see her, Mo Beichen didn’t even take his breakfast.
Xia Weilan stared at the weather outside. The cold wind was howling and she wore a windbreaker and went out.
——
In the hotel, the heater was turned on full blast.
Xia Ruolin gathered with a few of her best friends with a broad smile on her face. She couldn’t wait to brag about her happy marriage.
“I just came to meet you all. My mother-in-law wouldn’t let me eat outside. She said that I must pay attention to my diet.”
“And my husband told me to call him when I am ready to leave. He really treats me well and does whatever I say. I felt embarrassed to instruct him. Well, a man always has something to get busy with. So, I decided to let the driver send me home later.”
Her best friends exclaimed in admiration. This made Xia Roulin proud like a peacock. She stroked her belly tenderly, “I wanted to think of a name for the baby. Help me come up with ideas of names.”
One of her girlfriends immediately came up with a name. Xia Ruolin smiled and shook her head to reject it. In fact, she had already thought of a name, this is just to let them join in the fun.
“None of these are good enough. I’ve come up with one, if he’s a boy, he’ll be called Ouyang Aibao.”
Her friends immediately shut their mouths and smiled in approval, “What if it’s a girl?”
“How could it be a girl?” Xia Ruolin said immediately, “I haven’t come up with a girl’s name yet.”
“Yeah, it must be a boy. The name Ouyang Aibao is a very good name.” Her friend thought about it seriously before saying.
