CEO Husband Please Be Refrained

The room was quiet. Xia Weilan couldn’t help but opened her eyes slightly. She scanned around the room and her gaze landed on the tall figure that was laying sideways on the sofa, covered in a quilt with his back facing her. However, a portion of Mo Beichen’s leg was extended outside of the sofa.

“Hubby, aren’t you going to sleep on the bed? I promise I won’t touch you.”

Xia Weilan felt sorry for him for having to sleep in such an uncomfortable way. Mo Beichen didn’t reply. Xia Weilan also remained silent.

‘Knock~knock~’ 

“Young Master, Madam, Old master requested for me to bring you milk. Are you asleep young master?” Aunt Tian’s voice was heard outside the door.

Xia Weilan sat on the bed immediately and at the same time, Mo Beichen also sat up. They glanced at each other.

Not long after, Mo Beichen’s cold voice was heard, “The door is not locked.”

Aunt Tian awkwardly turned the doorknob and lowered her head as she entered the room. 

She placed the milk on the desk and said, “Old master said that a glass of milk before bed is good for the body.”

Aunt Tian was on a mission to check on them. When she saw Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan both sitting on the bed happily, she withdrew in relief. She immediately reported to Old master Mo who was waiting downstairs. Seeing that Aunt Tian had left, Mo Beichen took the glass of milk and passed it to Xia Weilan. 

“Drink it. Remember to rinse your mouth before you sleep.” 

As soon as he finished his words, Mo Beichen was about to stand up. 

“Hubby…” Xia Weilan grabbed his nightgown tightly. 

“Yes?” Mo Beichen lowered his head and spoke in a calm voice. 

“Sleep on the bed. I promise I won’t do anything to you without your approval,” 

Xia Weilan lifted her tiny face that looked serious. She stared at him, waiting anxiously for his answer, she was a little persistent. 

“Why don’t I sleep on the sofa?” Xia Weilan asked.

What kind of a person is Mo Beichen, how could I let him sleep on the sofa? No matter how I think about it, I feel wronged to make him do that. But it’s different in my case, I have a small figure, even if I turn over my body, I wouldn’t even fall off the sofa. 

Xia Weilan thought like that and wanted to get off the bed.

“Come back!” Mo Beichen said dully. 

He can’t let a woman sleep on a sofa, “Follow what you’ve said earlier.” 

Mo Beichen took the glass of milk and passed it to her, “Drink it.”

That night, both of them slept on the bed. Between them was a gap that was not too big nor too small. 

‘Click’ 

Mo Beichen reached out to switch off the light. The bedroom became pitch black in an instant. Ambiguous aura slowly filled the air.

Xia Weilan strived to open her eyes wide but she couldn’t see anything. She knew Mo Beichen’s temper well and didn’t dare to touch him at this time. She was afraid to provoke him and made him leave. She obediently lay sideways, looking toward his direction.

It was a gloomy night, the bedroom was pitch black. However, the ray of light in Xia Weilan’s eyes was very alluring. Mo Beichen squinted and gazed into the pair of eyes that were bright as the stars. He didn’t know when but a corner of his heart had already melted into a puddle.

Shortly afterward, Xia Weilan’s calm breathing sound was heard. Mo Beichen gently leaned closer and placed his hand around her neck, drawing her close to his chest. He closed his eyes. 

“Mo Beichen, don’t trust them, come back…” 

“Mo Beichen, why are you so silly, sob~~sob~~”

In the middle of the night, sad emotions filled the room. Mo Beichen opened his eyes and switched on the table lamp. He  found that Xia Weilan was already cringing her body, trembling uncontrollably. Her face was as white as a sheet of paper and she kept calling his name repeatedly.

Mo Beichen stared hard at her and gently shook her shoulder, but it seemed that Xia Weilan couldn’t hear anything. Her body kept trembling as if she was caught up in extreme fear. 

“Xia Weilan!” 

Mo Beichen gently wiped away the sweat on her forehead and called her name nervously. 

He wanted to wake her from the nightmare. Perhaps it was because of his gentle actions, or perhaps it was because she heard Mo Beichen’s voice, Xia Weilan suddenly paused. Her cringing body slowly relaxed.

Mo Beichen couldn’t sleep after that, his mind was filled with Xia Weilan’s helpless expression. He walked beside the window and opened it to let in some fresh air. He couldn’t understand why his heart was so heavy, as if a heavy rock was weighing on it. Why is Xia Weilan’s nightmare connected to him? Did she tell him not to trust them? Not to trust what? Was it because that night he was so ruthless to her, leaving a shadow in her heart? 

The more Mo Beichen thought about it, the more upset he was. He looked toward the bed with an even more profound solitude.

The next morning.

By the time Xia Weilan woke up, Mo Beichen already left the room. She changed her clothing and hurriedly went downstairs. Thank goodness she made it in time to see Mo Beichen who is having breakfast in the living room.

“Hubby…” Xia Weilan ran over happily. 

She grabbed a piece of bread and sat beside Mo Beichen. Mo Beichen looked at her calmly but he was delving her. 

“Did you sleep well last night? Did I steal your quilt?” Xia Weilan felt alerted immediately. 

“Nope,” Mo Beichen replied. 

“Then?” Xia Weilan thought for a while but couldn’t think of anything. 

“Let’s eat.” 

Xia Weilan ate bread while sipping on a glass of milk. She looked energetic and carefree. 

Mo Beichen was confused to see her like that and he asked, “Did you sleep well yesterday?” 

“Yeah, I had a good sleep,” Xia Weilan said immediately without even thinking.

" "

Mo Beichen was quiet again. His heart felt as if it was gripped by an invisible hand. Does this silly little girl even know that she had a nightmare last night?

Mo Beichen finished his breakfast and casually took a foreign language book. He flipped through it while sitting on the sofa. The sunray shone through the window into the living room and the sound of Xia Weilan gulping on the milk was heard.

Mo Beichen held his forehead with his hand, it seemed like something was troubling him. He even felt irritated from reading books. Xia Weilan took a few more sips of milk before she jumped down from the dining table. 

“I’m done, let’s go.”

Mo Beichen stood up. When he walked past Xia Weilan, he halted his footstep and frowned. He reached out his hand and wiped the milk off the corner of her lips. 

“Clumsy,” Mo Beichen said emotionlessly and walked out. 

He will drop Xia Weilan at school before going back to the office.

A University.

Xia Weilan was walking along the forest pathway. 

A few students who saw her immediately whispered to each other, “I heard that Xia Weilan had strong support. Even Ling Xuefei doesn’t dare to come to school for a few days already.” 

“I also won’t dare to show up if I am to apologize in front of the whole school. The principal published the disciplinary notice on the bulletin board, I also felt ashamed for Ling Xuefei.” 

“I heard that Xia Weilan is a relative of President Mo of Mo’s Corp. I better stay away from Xia Weilan next time. Don’t ever try to provoke her.”

Xia Weilan pretended that she did not hear anything. When she entered the classroom, she intentionally swept her eyes around the classroom. As expected, Ling Xuefei didn’t turn up again.
