At some secret underground casino.

“President Ling, it’s been a while since we came out to play. Today you really ought to play a few games.” An obese middle-aged man came inside with Ling Jiancheng.

“President Yang, it’s not like you haven’t heard. I’ve lost my company. I don’t have extra money to play all these.” Ling Jiancheng followed President Yang into a private room. 

But he said repeatedly, “I’m here to accompany you to have a look around today. I’m not gambling.”

“Just look at you. You lost the manner that you had before. Why not I give you a million-dollar worth of chips for free so that you can gamble to your heart content.”

President Yang waved his hands imposingly and a tray of chips appeared in front of Ling Jiancheng. 

Ling Jiancheng’s tranquil eyes suddenly brightened, “President Yang, this…”

“What are you being modest about? Croupier, start the game.” President Yang rubbed his fat palms together. His eyes exposed the excitement of a gambler. 

“Alright, then I thank you.” Ling Jiancheng knew President Yang well. He was addicted to gambling and he was not surprised at all because after all, President Yang had always been a generous man.

After two to three games, Ling Jiancheng’s capital had doubled. At this instant, his eyes were already bloodshot and they were sparkling with excitement.

“Haha, it seems that President Ling’s luck is good.” President Yang raised his hand and gave an eye signal to the croupier. 

“Since luck is on your side, why not place a bigger bet? I’ll put all my bets in the next game. Are you following, President Ling?” President Yang gazed at Ling Jiancheng with his bright eyes as he said casually.

“I’ll follow!”

‘Bang’ Ling Jiancheng placed all the chips in his hand on the table. He only had one thought on his mind, that is how much he will get if he won this round. With the money, he can restart his company again.

This was not the first time that Ling Jiancheng showed his arrogance, however, he had forgotten in this instant that the Ling Family was now poor and they could not undertake any risks at all. Tonight was destined to be a night of turmoil. 

Meanwhile, in Fairview Imperial Garden, Xia Weilan took a few Business Management books and went into her study room. For the past few days, Xia Wielan had been staying up past midnight. And just when Xia Weilan was busy burying her head  in the ocean of books, she did not realize that Mo Beichen was already standing behind her.

“Why are you putting in so much effort lately?” A ghostly voice suddenly sounded.

“Ah…” Xia Weilan was caught off guard and she intended to stand up. As a result, she knocked her leg on the edge of the desk hard.

‘Bang’ a loud knocking noise was heard, followed by Xia Weilan’s soft scream. Mo Beichen’s forehead throbbed and he immediately went forward, turning her toward him. He frowned when he saw her rubbing on her knee with both hands.

“Let me have a look.” Mo Beichen quickly lifted her skirt and saw a purple patch already formed on her white delicate knee. It was starting to get swollen. 

“Huh-hu.” Xia Weilan couldn’t hold back her tears and a few drops of tears rolled down her cheeks. 

She gazed at Mo Beichen with her teary eyes, “Hubby…”

Mo Beichen’s big palm gently rubbed on her injured knee. He was extremely careful but Xia Weilan still wrinkled her face into a pulp. 

“Be more gentle. Ouch.” Xia Weilan screamed in pain and struggled to dodge his big hand. But in the end she was being forced to hold still.

" "

“Don’t move. I’ll get some medicated oil over. If we don’t rub it properly, it won’t recover fast.” Mo Beichen fixed his stare at Xia Weilan and gently wiped away the tear from the corner of her eyes with his hand. He sighed.

Xia Weilan knew it’s better to live a short pain rather than suffer a long pain, so she gritted her teeth and nodded. Mo Beichen took the medicine box from a corner and placed it on the table. He took out the medicated oil. In less than a minute, Mo Beichen was already kneeling in front of Xia Weilan with the bottle in his hand.

“Bear with me.” Mo Beichen began rubbing her knee.

“Urgh…” Xia Weilan felt the cold sensation on her skin when Mo Beichen started to touch her. It was very comfortable. But shortly, his palms started to move. He didn’t exert a lot of force but gently rubbed as he tested her reaction before slowly adding more strength to his movement.

“Ah…be gentle…urgh…” Xia Weilan couldn’t bear the pain and started to scream.

Mo Beichen did not reduce the force at all. His eyebrows were tied in a knot and he knew that at a time like this, he should not be soft-hearted. Xia Weilan wanted to escape but she couldn’t. In the end, she suddenly opened her mouth and bit hard on Mo Beichen’s neck. Mo Beichen drew in a deep breath but he did not scream in pain and let her continue to bite him instead. 

And just like this, how much strength Mo Beichen exerted is how hard Xia Weilan’s bite. The both of them suffered in pain together.

Xia Weilan felt extremely aggrieved. She wondered how Mo Beichen could be so heartless as he obviously knew that she was in pain but he still did not reduce his strength. She bit him out of revenge.
By the time she pulled her teeth away from his neck, there was already a row of deep bite marks on his firm neck. Judging from the condition, it would not go away in a day or two.

“Hubby, are you in pain?” Xia Weilan who had already calmed down straightened her skirt with a guilty conscience. She quickly put on a smile. 

Mo Beichen put back the medicated oil inside the first aid box and it was difficult to read his expression.

“You return the favour with ingratitude!” Mo Beichen slowly turned around and gazed at her deeply.

“I did wrong. Why don’t you bite me back?” Xia Weilan’s eyes brightened and it was even more obvious that she was feeling guilty. 

Actually, Xia Weilan also knew that most of the bruises on her knee were already gone, and she did not feel so painful anymore, as if it was already half-recovered. 

“Hubby, what sort of magical medicine did you use? It’s working like magic.” Xia Weilan striked a conversation to ease the awkwardness at this moment.

Mo Beichen slowly walked toward her and suddenly leaned forward and carried her.

“Ah…” Xia Weilan subconsciously placed her hands around his neck.

Mo Beichen strode and put her on the bed.
He undo his necktie as he said, “It’s a medicine from second Bro’s military infirmary. It’s very good for bruises and injuries.”

“Oh.” Xia Weilan saw that he already undid two buttons on his shirt, she did not dare to ask more.

Mo Beichen undid his tie and buttons and gazed at her deeply, “What else do you want to know? You may ask now.”

Xia Weilan gulped. The moment her eyes met his handsome black eyes, she was immediately drawn inside by the black spiral inside his eyes. She was unable to say or think about anything. She didn’t know why she suddenly blushed. 

Suddenly a finger flicked hard on her forehead. The man leaned close beside her ears and asked in a low ambiguous voice, “What are you thinking about?”

Xia Weilan was completely clear and collected. She does not dare to utter a word. Mo Beichen gazed at her deeply and slowly stood up and towered above her, “Since you have nothing more to ask, I’ll go take a shower.”

She was not sure when Mo Beichen already took a bathrobe in his hands. He turned around and went inside the bathroom. Xia Weilan who was still on the bed replayed the scene of what happened just now. She reached out her hand to slap her own head and silently cursed herself for being a pervert. 

But this time, Mo Beichen spent a long time in the shower. By the time he was finally done, Xia Weilan was already fast asleep.
