CEO Husband Please Be Refrained

Mo Beichen who was sitting steadily glanced at Xia Weilan and said, “Okay.”

“No way. We had already planned for Weilan to do her internship at Xia Corps during the summer holiday. Isn’t that right, Weilan?” Old Master Xia quickly said. 

Old Master Xia had been thinking about this matter for a long time. He intended to pass Xia Corps to Xia Weilan in the future as he simply doesn’t trust Xia Roulin and her family. Xia Roulin was spoiled, Xue Zhiqing lacked sincerity and Xia Mei wasn’t even bold enough.

Xia Weilan nodded as she heard Old Master Xia, “Yes, I’ve promised grandpa that I’ll be doing my internship at Xia Corps.”

“That’s fine. Anyway, you are part of our family. You can’t run away.” Old Master Mo touched his white beard and smiled proudly.

“Beichen.” Old Master Xia suddenly said to Beichen, “You should guide this little girl more about the matters of the business world. Bring her along so that she can learn.”

Old Master Xia’s intention was clear. He wanted to train Xia Weilan to be the next successor.

Mo Beichen understood his intention and nodded. “Okay.”

In the evening at Fairview Imperial Court.

Xia Weilan carried a few business management books and started burying her head in the books inside the study. Mo Beichen stood at the door and knocked. “Come with me.”

Xia Weilan put down her book and followed Mo Beichen into his study.

“Take out the first book on the second row of the shelf and the sixth book on the third row.” Mo Beichen sat on the sofa and ordered.

His inherent charisma made others obey him and Xia Weilan also did what he ordered without any hesitation. 

The two books were about the real battle of the business world.

“Put your books aside and finish these two books within the next two days. You can ask me if you come across anything that you don’t understand.” Mo Beichen pointed his chin toward the door when he finished speaking, indicating that she can continue with her studies.

Xia Weilan flipped the pages as she made her way out. She walked slower and slower. By the time she reached the door, she halted completely as one of the case studies caught her attention. 

After a while, Xia Weilan retraced her footsteps. “Hubby, these books were a little difficult to understand. Can you explain these statements to me?”

Xia Weilan walked to the study desk. She pulled up a chair and sat beside Mo Beichen. She lowered her head and pointed to the content of the book with a serious expression.

Mo Beichen followed her voice and gazed on the spot that was pointed by her snowy fair finger. Her finger was thin and delicate, and it was very good looking. “Here?”

Mo Beichen extended his finger and the tip of his finger met with hers. Xia Weilan nodded and retrieved her hand. 

She frowned and said, “Yes, that’s the one.”

Mo Beichen frowned and stared at Xia Weilan’s serious face. His expression also turned solemn. 

“This meant…” 

Mo Beichen’s explanation was very easy to understand. Xia Weilan was able to understand very quickly. She didn’t intend to leave anymore, so she retrieved her book and read it while sitting beside Mo Beichen. Whenever she came across anything that she doesn’t understand, she would ask Mo Beichen.

Mo Beichen teased and said, “You silly girl, you don’t know this?”

But the next minute, he would still explain to her attentively.

Aunt Tian carried two bowls of hot soup and stopped in front of the study. She lifted the corner of her lips and let out a smile as she saw the harmonious scene inside.

Inside the study, that man and woman were sitting beside each other doing their own things attentively. They would occasionally get together with one playing the role of a stern teacher while the other blinked in confusion.

Aunt Tian stood there for a while before going in. She placed the soups beside the desk and went out. It was strange that Xia Weilan didn’t notice that someone came in. 

Mo Beichen took a glance at Aunt Tian without saying anything.

A few days later.

Xia Roulin was prosecuted for being the mastermind of kidnapping. 

Xue Zhiqing came looking for Mo Beichen a few times over the past few days and meanwhile, Gu Yuwei also received a lot of attractive lures.

Xue Zhiqing grew anxious and eventually offered an irresistible bargain to Gu Yuwei. In the end, Jing-mao took all the responsibility while Gu Yuwei and her family moved overseas after that.

Today, Xia Weilan learned about the news and received a call from Gu Yuwei.

“Weilan, I’m sorry. They offered me something that I couldn’t reject.” Gu Yuwei said over the phone.

 “That’s alright. I’m relieved to know that you are living a better life now.” Xia Weilan sounded very calm.

“Weilan, thank you.” Gu Yuwei said emotionally.

Xia Weilan didn’t ask her what exactly Xue Zhiqing offered her. But it was a good thing that Gu Yuwei and her family could now afford the life of studying abroad.

After she hung up the phone, Xia Weilan stared blankly while sitting on the couch.

“Are you upset?” Mo Beichen who just came home from work walked to her side and observed her expression in detail. 

“Which eyes of yours saw that I am unhappy?” Xia Weilan blinked and said indifferently, “I grew up in poverty. At that time, my daily worry was how to feed myself. I guess if during that time, someone offered to give me enough money for me to live, I wouldn’t reject it too. Being alive was the biggest satisfaction and it leaves no room to think about the rest.”

Mo Beichen’s eyes turned dim. He couldn’t imagine the look of a little girl in distress. He certainly was unable to comprehend and experience that. He only knew that it must have been a very dark past.

“Back then, I was less than ten years old. My mum sold beside the road every day in exchange for a more steady life.” Xia Weilan couldn’t help but sigh. “Who would have guessed that she’s now back at shantytown while I am staying here.”  

Xia Weilan kept quiet for a while before lifting her head and said anxiously, “I’m not taking pity on my mum. I’m just worried about my brother as he’ll be coming back during the summer holiday. If he’s willing to stay with me, I wanted to bring him home.”

“Okay, I’ll let you decide.” Mo Beichen said without any hesitation.

It was just a few more days until the summer holiday.

Wei Hongmei and Xia Weilan did not call Ling Zihan. Thus, Ling Zihan who was in high school now was unaware of the situation at home.

" "

“Alright. Look at you. Your eyebrows were all twisted that they were about to look like noodles,” said Mo Beichen.

Xia Weilan twitched her mouth and said, “I don’t look like noodles.”

Mo Beichen reached out his hand to rub the middle of her brows, smoothing out her brows, making it look more pleasant.

“If you really don’t like Xia Roulin, I can make her disappear from your sight.” Mo Beichen said in a calm tone, but his words were extremely arrogant.

“Now that you’ve mentioned it, I really don’t wish to see her.” Xia Weilan nodded correspondingly.

After she finished speaking, Xia Weilan’s eyes sparkled. She gazed at Mo Beichen and asked curiously, “You have any good ideas?”

Mo Beichen stared at her big bright eyes. He asked, “Do you want to know?”
