Before Xia Weilan could react, the black Maybach already sped away rapidly like the man who stepped on the accelerator furiously. 

“You did well today. You took the initiative to report to me and even said that you’re relying on me.” Mo Beichen gazed at her but quickly retrieved his gaze.  

“Oh, it’s because of that. Hehe.” Xia Weilan sillily nodded in realization. She was in an extremely good mood. She leaned sideway on the passenger seat while gazing at the man who was driving.

The sun was setting; the golden ray projected at the corner of his eyes, outlining his body making him look attractive in a different way. He was like God who had descended on earth. Xia Weilan squinted, Mo Beichen at this very moment was indeed attractive. 

“Where are we going?” Xia Weilan looked outside the window.

“I’m taking you to dinner.” Mo Beichen answered in a bossy manner.

Shortly after, the black Maybach drove into the hotel’s underground parking lot. They took the VIP lift to the VIP floor. They were about to place their orders with the waiter who served them with respect.

“No one will be here to bother us. You can order what you like to eat.” Mo Beichen placed both hands on the table. He was looking at her quietly, his gaze deep as an abyss. 

“Xia Weilan, are you afraid of me?” He suddenly asked.

“What?” Xia Weilan lifted her head from the menu and looked at him feeling confused. 

“Are you afraid of me?” Mo Beichen asked seriously with the same posture.

“Why would I be? What makes you think that way? You are my husband, why would I be afraid of you?” Xia Weilan frowned slightly as if she was a little troubled.

Mo Beichen saw that she doesn’t seem like she’s lying. His eyes gradually brightened and casually said, “Let’s start ordering.”

But deep down, Mo Beichen was doubtful. 

If she is not afraid of him, why did she have nightmares about him? What sort of logic is that?

When they were ordering, Xia Weilan’s cell phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it’s from an unknown number, she accepted the call, “Hello?”

“Where are you?” Ling Jiancheng asked on the other end of the call, he sounded irritated.

Xia Weilan took a glance at Mo Beichen and replied in a deep voice, “I am having dinner now. If you have anything to say, do it quickly.”

“Bring President Mo home. Dinner is ready, don’t eat outside.” Ling Jiancheng spoke with a rare gentle voice.

“I’m eating now. If there’s nothing, I’ll get off the phone now.” Xia Weilan subconsciously swept a glance at Mo Beichen. He was sitting calming with an emotionless face.

“You…are you delighted to see the Ling Family going bankrupt? I hereby apologize to you for all my previous wrong doing toward you. Get President Mo to stop poking his nose into the Ling’s Family business.” Ling Jiancheng was obviously pushed to his limit thus he lowered his temper.

“Right, you tell Ling Xuefei to stop being a coward and we shall talk after that.” 

Xia Weilan immediately hung up the phone and asked Mo Beichen, “What did you do to that fellow? It seems that he’s about to break down from anxiety.” 

“It’s just like what you’ve guessed. I’ve instructed someone to stop his business.” Mo Beichen initially planned to reply to her briefly. 

But when he saw the admiring look on the little girl’s face, he couldn’t help but feel proud. The sense of accomplishment was even more compared to getting a big business contract. 

“Hubby~” Xia Weilan called him gently, “I am unable to repay you for this. I can only devote my life to you.”

Mo Beichen came back to his senses and he was suddenly quiet. This little girl might not know how much she’s afraid of him. She already developed shadows in her heart and yet she dared make such a statement.

Mo Beichen didn’t reply to her but he changed the topic instead, “I’ve prepared a surprise for you. You will know when you go to school tomorrow.”

Xia Weilan’s heart was itching with curiosity. But Mo Beichen refused to reveal what he had in store for her. He told her that she will know by tomorrow. Thus Xia Weilan gave up on getting the answer. 

After dinner, they returned to Fairview Imperial Garden. Mo Beichen told her that he had to settle some matters and went into the studies. Xia Weilan returned to her own room. She packed her books, jewelry and stuff and moved them into the master bedroom. She then picked a book to read on the sofa.

Without realizing, it was already midnight. Seeing that Mo Beichen hadn’t come in, Xia Weilan went to the study after she washed up. 

“Hubby, are you still working?”

“You sleep first, don’t wait up for me.” Mo Beichen had his eyes glued onto the computer screen.

“Okay.” Xia Weilan yawned and returned to the master bedroom on her own.

After she fell asleep, a figure turned the doorknob and came in. Mo Beichen had already washed up in the bedroom next door. He gently lay down along the bed edge and he gazed at the face of the sleeping woman laying next to him through the faint light.

In the middle of the night, Mo Beichen was awakened by a soft noise. He immediately flipped on the light switch and found Xia Weilan turning around unable to sleep well. She was biting on the lower lips.

“Xia Weilan, are you okay? Xia Weilan, wake up.” Mo Beichen shook her shoulder a little hard. 

But Xia Weilan was still unresponsive. Suddenly, Xia Weilan reached out her hand to grab Mo Beichen’s arm. She muttered a word in between her tight lips. Mo Beichen leaned closed to her and heard her saying, “Mo Beichen.” 

The commotion in the room quiet down very quickly. Soon, Xia Weilan was breathing steadily, but her hand was still holding on to his arm. Mo Beichen looked at her with a complex expression. 

He was in silence. She tightly grasped his hand in her arms, placing it on her heart as if this could make her feel at ease. Mo Beichen did not retrieve his hand and embraced her shoulder with his other hand, drawing her into his arms before he switched off the light. 

The next morning.

When the sun was up in the sky, Xia Weilan was the first to wake up. On the soft big bed, Xia Weilan slept spawned out on her back as she hugged Mo Beichen. The saliva that drooled from the corner of her mouth had even made a wet spot on Mo Beichen’s collar.    

“Sh*t?” Xia Weilan quietly released her grip. 

She was frustrated by her own sleeping posture. If Mo Beichen found out about this, he would definitely despise her. Xia Weilan quickly straightened her clothing and quietly straightened Mo Beichen’s clothing that was out of place because of her.    

The air inside the room became stale and it was a bit warm. A hand grabbed Xia Weilan’s hand that was touching around randomly. The pair of eyes that were long awoke opened, exposing a pair of pupils that were deep and terrifyingly dark as if they could suck a person inside.  

“What are you doing?” Mo Beichen asked in a low charming voice. 

“Nothing.” Xia Weilan was startled and wanted to withdraw her hands immediately, she then realized that he was holding them tightly.

“Ah…” Xia Weilan suddenly screamed as she stared at a part of his body with her eyes wide open.

Mo Beihchen lowered his gaze to trail her sight and found that she was looking at his…He frowned and regained his usual look. He stared at her.

“What is there to be surprised about. Men are like this in the morning.” Mo Beichen said in a deep voice.

Xia Weilan was stunned and nodded in uncertainty, “It’s…it’s awake. What should we do?”
