Back at the Splendid Royal Garden, in the living room.
Mo Beichen hung his coat on the sofa, gently undid a few buttons, and then sat down. He asked in a calm voice,
"Tell me, what exactly did you hear outside Gu Yuwei's door?"
Xia Weilan shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Xia Ruolin asked her to make me look bad on the podium during the safety education lecture."
"What's your plan then?" Mo Beichen lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Weilan beside him.
"I have no special plan. I'll just face whatever comes my way." Xia Weilan replied simply.
"Aren't you sad? Isn't she your rare good friend?" Mo Beichen pulled one of her hands and placed it on his knee, playing with it casually.
"I know she's in a difficult situation. As for the friendship between us, it depends on her, not me." Xia Weilan suddenly seemed to remember something and said to Mo Beichen,
"Can you help me find Yuwei's younger brother? Her brother was hidden by Xia Ruolin's people."
A look of understanding flashed across Mo Beichen's eyes. In fact, on the way back just now, Xu Wei had already found the person, but they were just waiting for his instructions without taking action for the time being.
"I can find the person, but there's one requirement." Mo Beichen looked at her shrewdly.
"What?" Xia Weilan looked up at him, her eyes as clear as stars.
"You take the initiative tonight." Mo Beichen's calm words made Xia Weilan's ears buzz.
The room was immediately filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Xia Weilan felt the blood rush to her head. She suddenly felt a bit stuffy, and the expression in her eyes changed rapidly, showing embarrassment, surprise, shyness, and hesitation.
The changing look in her eyes was as rich as a knocked-over spice bottle. Mo Beichen stared at her intently and couldn't take his eyes off.
"What's wrong?" Mo Beichen gently parted his lips.
"Okay." Xia Weilan finally turned all the different emotions in her eyes into a gentle look like a spring stream.
Mo Beichen's eyebrows twitched. He had an urge to take her right then and there.
"You go and wash up first." Mo Beichen said trying his best to stay calm.
Xia Weilan obediently went upstairs. Her steps were a bit unsteady. She gently pulled at the collar with her two small hands. Her back made Mo Beichen have endless reveries. His eyes were glued to her and he just couldn't look away.
When Xia Weilan walked into the master bedroom without looking back and closed the door, Mo Beichen couldn't hide his anticipation. He stroked his chin, his eyes filled with a complex look.
A "ding" sound came. Xu Wei's text message arrived:
"Mr. Mo, should we rescue Gu Yuwei's younger brother now?"
"Wait for two days." Mo Beichen replied.
In the master bedroom, when Xia Weilan came out wrapped in a bathrobe, Mo Beichen was already sitting on the sofa.
Xia Weilan's face instantly turned bright red.
Looking at Xia Weilan like this, Mo Beichen felt his heart tighten. His throat was burning. She had already made his heart flutter without even doing anything.
Xia Weilan walked over. Her eyes flickered and she slowly sat down beside him.
"Husband..." she called him softly.
That single call instantly made Mo Beichen's lower abdomen tighten. He was surprised that his self - control was so weak.
Xia Weilan lowered her eyelashes and didn't dare to look at him. But she could feel a piercing gaze on her face, which made her stiffen and feel at a loss.
Mo Beichen couldn't bear to tease her anymore. He took the initiative to kiss her lips. He put one arm around her waist and laid her on the bed.
Remembering what she had promised, Xia Weilan groped to undo his buttons.
Her not - very - dexterous little hands tugged back and forth nervously, which made Mo Beichen feel a rush of blood to a certain place. He instantly became aroused.
"I can't undo it..." Xia Weilan said anxiously as she tried to undo the button several times but failed. She was already on the verge of tears.
"I'll help you." Mo Beichen leaned over and gently brushed his shirt. In an instant, his shirt was thrown aside.
Before Xia Weilan could react, she was drowned in a storm of kisses. After that, Mo Beichen took full control.
Before long, Xia Weilan had lost all sense of time. She just went up and down with Mo Beichen.
The next day.
After Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan finished breakfast together, Mo Beichen finally said,
"Gu Yuwei's younger brother has been found."
"So fast?" Xia Weilan looked at him in surprise.
"Yeah." Mo Beichen nodded calmly.
Admiration immediately appeared in Xia Weilan's eyes, while Mo Beichen looked calm.
That afternoon, a safety education activity was held at the school.
Sure enough, Xia Weilan found Gu Yuwei mixed in the crowd.
When the activity was about to start, Gu Yuwei suddenly came in front of Xia Weilan and Ruili:
"Weilan, long time no see."
Xia Weilan's eyes flashed. She pretended to be okay and said, "Are you okay these days? I haven't seen you. That day you..."
"Weilan, I don't know what happened that day. I was knocked out. When I woke up, you were already gone." Gu Yuwei said evasively.
"Okay." Xia Weilan said indifferently, "What about your younger brother?"
"My younger brother is fine. I made a mistake that day." Gu Yuwei lowered her eyelids, hiding her emotions in the shadows.
Just then, the school principal walked over.
"Students Xia Weilan and Gu Yuwei, during the following safety education, you two will represent all the students in the school to answer questions on the stage."
"Yes, teacher." Gu Yuwei replied quickly.
Just before they were about to go on stage, Ruili pulled Xia Weilan aside and said worriedly,
"Maybe I should also apply to go on stage with you. It seems that Gu Yuwei really wants to help Xia Ruolin deal with you."
"Don't worry. I'll be careful." Xia Weilan comforted her.
When Xia Weilan turned around, she saw that Gu Yuwei had already gone on stage. She was standing there quietly, expressionless.
Xia Weilan's eyes flashed. She walked onto the stage without hesitation. The image of Gu Yuwei crying in the warehouse when she was involved by herself flashed through her mind.
This girl was not a bad person at heart, just too weak. She was so weak that a gentle breeze could make her tremble constantly, swaying with the wind without a backbone.
Xia Weilan walked over and stood in front of Gu Yuwei. Both of them held a microphone in their hands.
In front of them was the teacher invited by the school to give the lecture.
Below the stage were more than a thousand students in the whole school, looking up at the stage with different expressions.
"Now, let's welcome the safety education teacher to explain some safety issues. These two students will answer questions and do demonstrations." After the principal finished speaking, he sat back on his chair and left the stage to the teacher.
The teacher explained some knowledge about emergency escape. Now he was talking about the rescue method for drowning - artificial respiration.
"Next, the two students will do a demonstration according to what I say. Who wants to be the drowning person? And who will be the rescuer?" the safety teacher asked kindly.
"I will." Gu Yuwei stepped forward immediately and said, "I'll be the rescuer."
