The black Maybach zipped through the streets like a ghost, a raging whirlwind that swept by and vanished in a flash, leaving only a gust of wind in its wake.
Inside the car, Mo Beichen's features were sharp and handsome. When Xia Weilan saw him, her anger had already subsided a bit. But men shouldn't be indulged, especially when it came to flirting around.
Xia Weilan didn't like it when Mo Beichen often went to places like bars. And he never took her with him.
After much thought, Xia Weilan decided that it was all Nan Fengyan's fault for leading her husband astray. Nan Fengyan was the real culprit.
"Humph." Seeing Mo Beichen acting as if nothing had happened, Xia Weilan let out a snort from her nose to show her dissatisfaction.
"What's wrong?" Mo Beichen reached out a hand and placed it on the back of hers, patting it soothingly.
Xia Weilan pretended to be unhappy and said, "Did I say I'd go with you? Stop the car."
Mo Beichen stopped the car as she asked. Then he leaned over her, locking his arms around her waist. His voice was calm as he said, "If you have something to say, say it."
Xia Weilan's heart skipped a few beats. Her mouth opened and closed. Just as she was about to speak, the figure in front of her moved even closer. His thin lips were almost touching hers. With each word he said, it was like a gentle kiss:
"What do you want to say?"
Xia Weilan's mind went blank, as if fireworks were exploding in her head.
What on earth was going on? How did they end up kissing just like that?
Mo Beichen backed away a bit. He looked at her obedient appearance with satisfaction and ruffled her hair:
"Since you have nothing to say, let's go and have dinner."
As soon as Mo Beichen finished speaking, without giving her a chance to object, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
By the time Xia Weilan came to her senses, her lips were so moist that it seemed water could be squeezed out. She was in an extremely good mood.
"Husband..." Xia Weilan suddenly called out to him.
This address made Mo Beichen raise the corners of his mouth imperceptibly. "Yes?"
"You should go to bars with Nan Fengyan less often in the future. If he asks you out again, just bring him home and say I'll treat him well." Xia Weilan's voice was sweet, but there was a glint in her eyes.
"Okay." Mo Beichen replied indifferently.
Not long after, they arrived at the restaurant.
"Mr. Mo, please come in." The manager greeted them personally.
"We just imported several crabs today. They were just air - freighted and are extremely fresh. What do you think, Mr. Mo?" The manager introduced them with a beaming smile.
"Ask her." Mo Beichen commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes, miss, what do you think?" The manager's eyes flashed, and he immediately asked Xia Weilan respectfully.
"Then bring two." Xia Weilan rubbed her stomach and licked her lips.
After that, they took their seats, and Xia Weilan ordered a few more dishes.
While waiting for the food, Mo Beichen suddenly straightened his face and asked:
"Have you had a good time playing outside recently?"
Hearing this, Xia Weilan looked into his obsidian - like eyes and didn't say a word for a moment.
"It seems you've had so much fun that you don't even want to go back home." Mo Beichen added.
Suddenly, it felt as if a cold wind had blown through the room. Xia Weilan blinked her eyes and coughed twice:
"I..."
"If I hadn't come to find you, would you never go back? Hm?" Mo Beichen's eyes darkened a bit. A shadow flashed in his shrewd eyes, and there seemed to be a storm brewing.
"Husband..." Xia Weilan was rendered speechless and could only call out to him softly.
Just then, two big crabs were served.
Xia Weilan's eyes widened in shock. "These... are so big!"
She took the opportunity to change the subject.
"What, do you regret it?" Mo Beichen leaned back in his chair and said in a calm tone:
"There's no turning back once the arrow is shot. Just like when you get married, you have to fulfill your responsibilities."
"I'll give this same advice to you." Xia Weilan stared at him and retorted.
"Okay." Mo Beichen grunted from his throat. Then he suddenly stood up. "I'll go to the restroom."
When Mo Beichen came back from the restroom, he found a plate of crab meat neatly arranged on his table. Xia Weilan was wiping her greasy hands with a tissue and smiling at him flatteringly.
Mo Beichen sat down, paused for a moment, picked up some crab meat with his chopsticks and took a bite.
The smile in Xia Weilan's eyes grew wider. She said proudly, "Is it delicious?"
"Not bad." Mo Beichen looked at her intently, nodded and slightly curved his lips.
Just then, two waiters walked in. They were stunned for a moment when they saw the scene in the private room. Then one of the waiters walked up to Xia Weilan:
"Miss, I'm here to shell the crab for you."
After saying that, the waiter picked up a set of well - equipped tools and started working. In a short while, a plate of beautifully arranged crab meat was placed in front of Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan was stunned. She looked at the wrinkled crab meat she had shelled for Mo Beichen and then at the neatly arranged crab meat in front of her, looking a bit embarrassed.
Mo Beichen lowered his head and took another bite. The corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly.
"Husband, you eat this one. It looks more delicious." Xia Weilan said shyly and tried to exchange the food with him.
But the hand she reached out was held down by Mo Beichen:
"I like the one I'm having."
Mo Beichen tapped Xia Weilan's hand with his chopsticks. She withdrew her hand and didn't dwell on it anymore. She picked up her own chopsticks.
After they finished their meal, Mo Beichen took Xia Weilan out of the restaurant. A woman who had just entered the restaurant was walking towards Xia Weilan while talking on the phone.
"Watch out." Mo Beichen saw that Xia Weilan hadn't noticed and quickly pulled her into his arms.
Xia Weilan was looking at the sky. Suddenly, she felt dizzy. The next moment, she was wrapped in the scent of a man.
Her face was buried in his chest, and his strong hand was on her waist.
At this moment, the world seemed to stand still. All they could hear was each other's pounding heartbeats.
Mo Beichen lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms. His heart skipped a beat. He leaned down and kissed her red lips.
The kiss was like an electric shock, giving both of them an unprecedented feeling. It was like a poppy that could intoxicate one's nerves, making them unable to stop.
Xia Weilan felt her heart skip a beat and almost stop. Just then, Mo Beichen slipped into her mouth, sucking and kissing her tongue deeply.
His lips and tongue seemed to have a powerful suction, merging his scent with hers.
"Um..." Xia Weilan tilted her head back in a daze and almost fell to the ground.
It wasn't until some time later that Mo Beichen finally let her go.
Xia Weilan's hazy eyes gradually cleared. She saw the faint smile on his lips, a hint of playfulness and something more profound.
"Mrs. Mo, are you going to go back with me?" Mo Beichen still held her hand.
Xia Weilan couldn't refuse at this moment. After such a passionate kiss, how could she pretend it never happened?
"Yes." Xia Weilan glanced shyly at the onlookers and quickly pulled Mo Beichen towards the car.
Mo Beichen saw her pulling his hand in a hurry and followed behind her. A hint of doting flashed in his eyes.
