CEO Husband Please Be Refrained

The voice scolding at Xia Weilan suddenly stopped. Wei Hongmei stood still on the spot and she suddenly regretted what she had done. She was left with nothing now. Ling Family is finished, but she still has Xia Weilan who was the young madam of Mo Family. When she came, she intended to pursue Xia Weilan, but how did it end up like this?

When she saw Xia Weilan just now, she still habitually treated her like the little girl who was powerless and easily trampled. Thus, she got furious. 

“My daughter…” Wei Hongmei shook off the security guard’s grip and she stood still on the spot. She was howling as she cried sadly.

She is going back to Shantytown, back to the house that was only twenty square meters with space for only a bed and a table. Xia Weilan walked toward the shadow and heard the howling cries behind her. She felt irritated and dashed to the villa.

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside her and grabbed her hand. Xia Weilan lifted her head to find Mo Beichen who was already standing beside her. Xia Weilan sniffled. The emotion that she had been holding back suddenly crumbled and she held onto Mo Beichen neck tightly.  

She was like an abandoned child. She called out to him in grievance, “Hubby.”

“Yeah?” Mo Beichen wrapped one hand around her waist and the other hand gently caressing the back of her head.

“It was them who betrayed me, but why in the end it seems that I am the one who did wrong? What had I done wrong?” Xia Weilan muttered, “It’s them who did wrong, not me. But everytime, it was them who were living happily. Even if they are the one in difficult times, they also wanted to make me unhappy. It was others who did wrong, why is it always me who is unhappy?”

Previously, after they scolded her, she would smile in pride, deepening the scar in her heart. Now, they still scolded her but after that, she felt wronged and even wailed loudly at the door. Why is it like that?

“You did nothing wrong.” Mo Beichen’s low and soft voice had the power to comfort others.

“Hmm..” Xia Weilan was suddenly at ease after hearing Mo Beichen.

“Let’s go.” Mo Beichen suddenly held her hand and walked toward the main gate.

“Where are we going?” Xia Weilan followed him subconsciously, feeling confused. 

At the main gate, Wei Hongmei knelt outside the gate, wailing. The few securities wore a hideous expression. “President Mo…” The security guard greeted him when they saw him.

Wei Hongmei, who was crying hard, quickly lifted her head when she heard the noise. She saw Mo Beichen who looked high and mighty standing in front of her. She was so stunned that she had forgotten to cry and quickly stood up emotionally.   

“President Mo…No, my son-in-law.” Wei Hongmei wiped her face and quickly smiled as she said, “My son-in-law, we are family. Mum is begging you, your father-in-law has been working with proper conduct in the company, can you please don’t…”

“Madam Wei, Ling Jiancheng did wrong. It was reasonable for us to fire him,” said Mo Beicheni in a deep tone while he squeezed Xia Weilan’s palm that was slightly cold.

“This…my girl, quick, help say something. Mum already learned the lesson for all the wrongdoing toward you previously. But no matter what, Ling Family has raised you for so many years, you can’t let President Mo be labelled as a man who returns kindness with ingratitude.” Wei Hongmei was more sensible now as she tried to reason with Xia Weilan.

“Paying kindness with ingratitude? I think you are the one who is ungrateful now. Ling Jiancheng was caught for embezzlement of public funds. I didn’t call the cops on him but asked him to return the money that he had taken. Is this how the Ling Family treats their benefactor?” Mo Beichen did not wait for Xia Weilan to open her mouth but he immediately spoke.

“Embezzlement of public funds?” Wei Hongmei’s expression changed. 

“President Mo, even if he embezzled the public funds, you can’t press on him like that. There must be some misunderstanding. Furthermore, Weilan was married into the Mo Family. We didn’t even receive a single betrothal gift. President Mo is so wealthy, how can you be calculative with your in-laws over such a small amount of money. Why don’t we treat that amount of money as a betrothal gift, you see…”

Wei Hongmei knew that Mo Beichen was not concerned about that small amount of money. Thus, she strived to make justification as she really did not want to go back to living a poor life.

“You really have such a thick skin.” Xia Wei suddenly sneered.

“Betrothal gift?” Mo Beichen gave these words a thought. 

He said with a ruminate manner, “The betrothal gift should match with the dowry. Ling Family should come out with a ten million dollar dowry before asking for a ten million dollars betrothal gift. As for the rest, if by tomorrow, Ling Jiancheng is still unable to pay back the public fund, he will be jailed.”

“Tomorrow?” Wei Hongmei panicked, “Even if we are to sell the family property, it’s still going to take time. Tomorrow is too soon, President Mo…” Wei Hongmei was about to burst into tears.

“I had initially given a one week grace period. But since Mrs Ling has so much leisure time to come over to cause a scene, it seems that I have given too much time. You can inform Ling Jiancheng to come back with the money tomorrow.” Mo Beichen said with an ‘I am the God, so what can you do about me’ manner.

At this moment, Wei Hongmei didn’t dare to voice out her fury. She really regretted her actions. 

“Aren’t you leaving?” Mo Beichen’s eyes were as cold as ice. 

A few security guards stepped forward, ready to chase her away.

“I’m leaving. I’m leaving.” Wei Hongmei didn’t dare to stay any longer.

The moment she got in the car and reversed, she hit the car on the lion statue at the entrance due to nervousness. She dented her car but she didn’t dare to get out of the car to have a look but drove away in a hurry. 

If she continued to make a scene, Mo Beichen might really want to put her husband in jail. Moreover, if Ling Jiancheng knew that she had screwed up the matter and even caused him to pay back the money by tomorrow, she doesn’t know if he would beat her.

Hazy evening sky.

Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan walked side by side. The entire Fairview Imperial Court was like a different world. 

“I’ll bring you for a walk.” Mo Beichen held Xia Weilan’s hand and led her to a little forest path.

" "

The hazy moonlight penetrated through the giant trees on both sides of the path casting it’s gentle ray on the path. There was a lamp post emitting faint yellowish light every few meters down the path. 

“This is the first time I walked on this road.” Xia Weilan took in a few breaths of cool air and felt calm all of a sudden. 

“Are you blaming me for not doing my duty?” Mo Beichen said half-jokingly. 

“No, why would I? You already did well” Xia Weilan lowered her head and said something that was similar to a confession. 

He tightened his grip on her waist. His voice was as hazy as the evening sky, “It seems that I really failed to perform my duty because  you are so easily satisfied.”

“You can have a bigger appetite.” Mo Beichen suddenly lowered his lips beside her ears as if he wanted to bite on her ear lobe.

“Appetite?” Xia Weilan didn’t expect that the conversation would go off track in such a ridiculous manner. 

She couldn’t help but blush and didn’t dare to ask more.

“A few days later, I’ll bring you out to get to know more people so that you don’t have to trap yourself in those wrong relationships. The world is so big, you should get out more often.”

 Mo Beichen gently touched her nose and a glint of light flashed across his eyes.

“Alright.” Xia Weilan understood what he meant.
