It was obvious that the little girl was still frightened. She was slouching while walking and she wasn’t as confident as before.

The moment Xia Weilan came out from the front entrance, a few cars pulled over in front and a few men dressed in black got off the cars. They looked fierce and they were walking toward Xia Weilan.

Xia Weilan was alarmed. She immediately led the little girl to take a detour. She only managed to take a few steps before she heard the leader of those men shouting, “Stay where you are!” 

The few people quickly surrounded Xia Weilan.

Xia Weilan felt her chest tightened. The man sized up Xia Weilan and took a glance at the little girl in her drenched skirt. He shouted, “Come with me!”

The man said this to Xia Weilan and it was obvious that she was their target.

Xia Weilan looked at the six men surrounding her. All of them were lofty and she wasn’t a match for them. She clenched her fists, acting calm as she said, “Let her go. I’m the one you are seeking for.”

The order that the man received was to deal with Xia Weilan only. Thus, he didn’t bother about the little girl. He quickly agreed to Xia Weilan’s request. 

“Sure. But you have to follow us to the alleyway.”

Xia Weilan nodded. “Let’s go.”

She pushed the little girl out from the surrounding crowd and was forced to an alleyway not far by the few lofty men. The little girl noticed Xia Weilan’s eye signal to her and ran straight to the hotel lobby without crying or making a scene.

“Young lady, it seems like you have offended quite a lot of people.” The leader of those men said in a deep voice. He had a scar on the corner of his forehead and they were the same hooligans that Xia Roulin hired previously.

“Who sent you here?” Xia Weilan took a few steps back in alertness. But she quickly realized that she was already forced into a corner and she had nowhere to run.

“You’ve offended someone that you shouldn’t offend.” When the man with scar finished his words, he gave a sharp look toward the others and the other men moved toward Xia Weilan and started attacking her.

A dreadful expression appeared across Xia Weilan’s face and she found it somewhat challenging to deal with them. There were too many of them and all of them had some martial art skills.

While Xia Weilan was fighting, one of her shoes fell off and her fringes were in disorder. She was pouring cold sweats.

A tall and slender man suddenly rushed over from not far away. When he saw Xia Weilan being trapped by the few lofty men, his cold eyebrows were fiercely tied in a knot. He rushed over without hesitation.

“Let go of her!” 

While he was saying that, his hard fist had already landed fiercely on the man’s belly. The man vomited foam and he flew across the floor, unable to get back up. 

While the others were stunned, Xia Weilan quickly slided like a laoch and break-free from the man’s grip. She gave a hard kick to the crotch of one of the hooligans and ran straight to Mo Beichen.

“Watch out!” Mo Beichen squinted as he stared at the person who came rushing toward him. Without hesitation, he shielded her inside his arms and felt a hard blow on his arm.

The hooligan holding a stick in his hand was delighted to find that he landed a blow on Mo Beichen and wanted to give him another blow. But the moment he raised his hand, he was kicked by Mo Beichen and it landed a critical blow on his chin. He fell to the floor with a plop. 

The remaining three stared at each other and looked at Mo Beichen.

“Are you alright?” Xia Weilan stared at him anxiously when she noticed that his arm was like a kite with a broken string.

Mo Beichen replied with a reassuring smile and shifted his gaze and shouted coldly, “Cripple them!”

“Yes!” The few people dressed in black who just hurried to the scene were furious when they saw Mo Beichen’s injured arm.

Soon, the alleyway was filled with dreadful screams.

Xia Weilan helped Mo Beichen walk to the car and stuffed him into the passenger seat. She quickly took the steering wheel and sped off.

“Endure for a while. I’m bringing you to the hospital!”

Mo Beichen’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he didn’t make a single noise. It was as if he wasn’t the one who got hurt. 

“I’m okay. This little injury was no big deal at all.” Mo Beichen said calmly. 

Xia Weilan didn’t take his words because she was very certain of how strong the blow was from that man just now.

After a few minutes, Xia Weilan helped Mo Beichen into the hospital. When the medical team saw that Mo Beichen was injured, they arranged medical treatment for him as soon as they could.

Xia Weilan wanted to stay by his side, but Mo Beichen stopped her and told her to wait outside. The door of the treatment room was shut tightly. 

Time passed by and Xia Weilan grew anxious when she heard no movement coming from the inside.

A doctor finally opened the door and said to Xia Weilan, “You may go in now.”

Inside the room, Mo Beichen’s arm was wrapped in a bandage hung on his neck.

He was sitting on the chair without any expression, as if he wasn’t in pain at all. Xia Weilan’s eyes immediately reddened as her heart was aching badly.

“Why are you crying?” Mo Beichen said coldly.

“It wasn’t like I had never experienced such a small injury before.”

During their younger days, Mo Beichen and his elder brother Mo Nansheng were placed in the military to undergo harsh training by Old Master Mo. Old Master Mo let Mo Beichen come home when he was injured badly.

And because Mo Nanshen made a great contribution, he chose to stay back with the military. Old Master Mo tried everything to advise him to come home but didn’t succeed. And therefore, all the burden of the Mo Family fell on Mo Beichen’s shoulders.

“How was it a small injury? You’re not iron man!” Xia Weilan sobbed.

The doctor came over and passed some medicine to Xia Weilan. 

“Take these back. Redress twice a day. The patient’s fractured arm had been treated. All he needed to do next was to recover. Don’t do any heavy work.”

Xia Weilan heard the doctor and quickly said, “Thank you doctor.”

“Let’s get going.” Mo Biechen wasn’t used to seeing girls crying and he had no ideal on how to comfort her. Thus, he walked outside first. 

Xia Weilan followed behind him immediately.

Xia Weilan stared at his sturdy rear view and the bandage wrapped around his arms. Thousands of emotions merged in heart and in the end, they turned into a sigh.

“Hubby…wait for me.” Xia Weilan picked up pace and followed him.

In the car, Xia Weilan drove while observing Mo Beichen’s expression. In the end, she noticed that Mo Beichen wasn’t showing any expression.

At that moment, Mo Beichen’s phone rang and he picked up the phone with his right hand that wasn’t injured. 

“Speak.”

“President Mo, those hooligans already confessed that they were instructed by the third young master of the Cheng Family. He was currently one of the popular male celebrities. Before…”

Xia Weilan stared at Mo Beichen’s expression but she couldn’t figure out who he was talking to. By the time he ended the call, the car reached Fairview Imperial Court.

Aunt Tian who just came out from the kitchen immediately changed her expression when he saw Mo Beichen in a cold face wearing a bandage over his shoulder. 

“What’s going on?”

Xia Weilan briefly informed Aunt Tian on what she should be taking note when preparing meals and then followed Mo Beichen upstairs.
