The next Chapter will be uploaded on Saturday instead of Friday (for this week only). I’ll see you in the next Chapter, Happy Holiday!

==========================================================================================

At the police station, Gu Yuwei and Gu Yunou had both identified that Xia Roulin was the mastermind behind the kidnapping. At the same time, Xia Roulin and Jin Mao were detained in the cells respectively.

Jin Mao already regained consciousness and he realized that the police had caught him. However, he was very calm and he kept quiet, not uttering a single word.

“Do you think that you will be out of trouble as long as you keep quiet? You are caught red-handed for kidnapping. No one can save you.” The police said sternly.

At this moment, Xia Roulin’s father, Xue Zhiqing rushed to the police station.

“Where’s my daughter? Who’s trying to accuse my daughter?”

Xue Zhiqing said angrily. He glanced at Gu Yuwei and Gu Yunuo who just finished doing the witness report and raised his eyebrows angrily.

“Mr Xue.” Xu Wei blocked Xue Zhiqing’s view and stared at him calmly.

“Mr Xu, what brings you here?” Xue Zhiqing immediately held back his anger and asked in a friendly manner.

“Someone had set our Madam up. President Mo had requested me to come to check on the situation.” Xu Wei said in a tone that was neither inferior or superior.

“There must be some misunderstanding.” Xue Zhiqing said dryly and asked the police officer next to him, “Where’s my daughter? I want to see her.”

Xue Zhiqing followed another police into a room. Xu Wei squinted and quickly made a report to Mo Beichen.

“Mr Xu, is that Xia Roulin’s father? He seems arrogant. Will he take revenge on us?” Xue Zhiqing’s first impression had already frightened Gu Yuwei. After all, she was a young lady without any background. She wouldn’t be able to stand against these rich people.

“I’ll send you home first. Don’t worry, we’ll protect you 24-7.” Xu Wei consoled her.

“Okay.” Gu Yuwei suddenly recalled Mo Beichen’s status and suddenly felt full of confidence. In Beijing, Mo Beichen’s name itself was an authority.

Meanwhile, in the hospital.

Xia Mei hurried to the hospital to care for Old Master Xia’s well being. She also helped Xia Roulin say a lot of good words.

“Dad, the palm and the back of the are both made of flesh. I’ll discipline that wrench well. Don’t be mad.” Xia Mei was a gentle person. She spoke slowly and gently, making her listener feel comfortable listening to her words.

“Hmph! It was you who had spoilt her.” Old Master Xia was still putting a cold face, not giving in.

After hearing Old Master Xia’s words, she turned around in silence and took a glance at Xia Weilan, intending to lower herself, “Weilan…”

“Aunt, I’m sorry. I didn’t want to cause such grief to the family. Because of me, the harmony of the family had been affected. If the outcome of the investigation showed that I had blamed Sis Roulin wrongly, I’ll apologize to her.” Xia Weilan interrupted Xia Mei’s words and she appeared to be uneasy.

“Aunt, I never expected that things would turn out this way. At that time, the hostage identified on the spot that Sis Roulin was an accomplice. Up until now, it still felt like a dream. Aunt, did you also find it unbelievable?” Xia Weilan did not give her any opportunities and continued speaking.

Xia Mei opened her mouth but could only give a pat on Xia Weilan’s shoulder. “It’s Roulin who’s not sensible causing you such griefs.”

“Thanks aunt, for being understanding.” Xia Weilan said weakly.

A beam of light flashed through Mo Beichen’s eyes as he stood beside Xia Weilan. Even Old master Xia also secretly curled his lips.

So it turned out that this little girl really knew how to play the pig to eat the tiger. (T/N: pretend to be fragile to take advantage of someone.)

Xia Weilan twitched her mouth to conceal her uneasiness. She turned around and continued to peel a pear for Old Master Xia.

“Alright, it’s getting late. My child, Beichen, you should go home and get some rest.” Old Master Xia coughed lightly and said.

When Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen entered the lift, they could still hear Xia Mei’s gentle voice from the ward that was not far away.

“Actually, this aunt of mine treats me well. But Xia Roulin was spoiled by her. She knew no boundaries.” Xia Weilan was drawn into Mo Beichen’s arms and she said emotionally.

“It is a fact that she did wrong and she had to pay the price. Don’t think too much.” Mo Beichen lowered his gaze to stare at her as he said gently.

“I understand.” Xia Weilan said emotionlessly.

“You are so calm for such a young age.” Mo Beichen could not hold back and extended his hand to touch her little nose.

“Hehe.’’ Xia Weilan laughed and grabbed his hand, “How can I compare with you who is old and decrepit?”

As soon as she finished her words, the door of the lift opened. Xia Weilan pushed herself away from him and fled.

Mo Beichen gazed at her back and slowly walked out.

Xia Weilan ran for a while and turned around to peek at him. She saw that Mo Beichen was taking his sweet time and was not angry at all. She can’t help but feel bored.

‘Sigh…’ Xia Weilan let out a sigh in her heart. Being in a relationship with a smart person was indeed strenuous.

Taking now for an instant, Mo Beichen knew that she wasn’t really running away. Thus, he didn’t even bother to chase after her.

Mo Beichen walked beside her and suddenly reached out his arm to wrap around her waist and said in a deep voice, “What did you say just now?Huh?”

“Hey…” Xia Weilan blinked and somehow she felt that she had fallen into Mo Beichen’s trap. She had walked right into the trap and felt defeated.

“Old and decrepit? Huh?” Mo Beichen pinched her chin and lifted her face.

“Hubby…I’m just joking with you. Hehe.” Xia Weilan blinked and let out some innocent dry laughter.

Mo Beichen suddenly caressed her lips with his fingertip. The air suddenly became static.

It was until Xia Weilan was blushing with her heart beating wildly and her eyes were flickering, Mo Beichen suddenly pulled away from her. “Mrs Mo, you are looking like a love-struck fool.”

Mo Beichen got in the car when he finished speaking.

Xia Weilan’s heart was thumping and she reached out her hand to hold her cheeks that were scalding hot. She got into the passenger seat.

“It seems like you are very fond of old and decrepit types like me.” Mo Beichen looked at her mockingly.

Xia Weilan never expected that Mo Beichen had such a childish side. She couldn’t hold back and said, “Hubby…I’ll call you Mo-San Xui from now on. You are even pettier than me.” (T/N: Mo-San Xui refers to Mo Beichen acting like three years old as San Xiu in Chinese means three years old.)

Mo Beichen wasn’t angry. He stepped on the pedal and said calmly, “If I am really petty, you won’t have the chance to speak to me like this.”

Xia Weilan gave some thoughts over his words and she couldn’t help but agree. She was indeed getting bold, but this was all because Mo Beichen was getting better at putting up with her.

When Xia Weilan thought about this, she suddenly felt a warm sensation washing over her heart.

She recalled in her previous life, Mo Beichen was such a cold person. When she looked at Mo Beichen now, he was definitely an improved version. He had already restrained a lot for her.

“Hubby, if one day I caused a crisis to your company. What will you do?” Xia Weilan suddenly asked out of the blue.

This question had always remained a puzzle to Xia Weilan. Mo Beichen was obviously a workaholic. In the previous life, why is he still willing to jump into the sea to rescue her after learning that she had cheated on him?

“You’ve think too much. My company will not meet with a crisis.” Mo Beichen said inattentively.
