Xia Weilan was slightly stunned. Looking into the other person's curious eyes, she blinked and replied,
"We met by chance in a bar."
Mo Beichen took a sip of his wine, looking calm. He thought to himself: It's true that they met in a bar, but at that time Xia Weilan suddenly pounced on him and shamelessly asked him to take her away.
"Wow, that's quite a coincidence!" the playboy quickly flattered.
Nan Fengyan, who knew the inside story, was laughing so hard that his shoulders were twitching. His expression was extremely strange. Rui Li glanced at him, feeling rather puzzled. Then she poured herself a glass of wine and gulped it down.
Xia Weilan just smiled faintly and said nothing. In the blink of an eye, she found a peeled crab on the plate in front of her. There was also a glass of juice that Mo Beichen had just handed over. His hand was still stretched out in front of her.
Xia Weilan quickly took it. Immediately, there were quite a few teasing laughs in the private room.
Xia Weilan usually had a thick skin, but for some reason, she felt her face burning at this moment.
Mo Beichen acted as if nothing had happened. He took another sip of his wine, leaning one hand on the sofa as if he were defending his sovereignty, as if he could put his arm around her at any time.
Xia Weilan, being a bit careless, could feel a hand on her back like a brand. She was slightly stunned, then quietly leaned towards that arm and naturally snuggled up to him.
During the meal, some people who were good at enlivening the atmosphere told many interesting things. At this time, they talked about Nan Fengyan's amorous affairs:
"Another time, a beautiful woman in a bikini walked up to Fengyan. Suddenly, she stumbled and fell into his arms. Tsk tsk, we were all stunned when we were sitting on the beach. Then we saw Fengyan just put his arm around that beauty and left first."
The playboy was getting more and more excited as he spoke. After he finished, several people laughed. But when they saw Nan Fengyan's face as black as the bottom of a pot, they all fell silent.
"Brother Feng, what's wrong with you?" the playboy asked in confusion.
Nan Fengyan glared at him with a look like a knife in his eyes. Then, he looked at Rui Li somewhat complicatedly, only to find that Rui Li wasn't even looking at him. She was just drinking on her own, as if she hadn't heard at all.
But Nan Fengyan could sense Rui Li's unhappiness. How could she really not have heard?
Suddenly, Rui Li stood up:
"Weilan, accompany me to the restroom."
Hearing this, Xia Weilan stood up without hesitation. Before leaving, she also glared at Nan Fengyan.
Nan Fengyan's face instantly fell to the extreme, and the atmosphere in the private room became extremely awkward.
At this moment, everyone could see that Nan Fengyan cared about Rui Li. The playboy who had been talkative before realized that he had caused trouble and quickly lowered his head, not daring to say another word.
After leaving the private room, Rui Li and Xia Weilan walked towards the restroom.
"Weilan, you can't really be interested in Nan Fengyan, can you?" Xia Weilan couldn't help asking.
"How could it be? Do you think a quiet person like me can get along with someone as lively as a clown?" Rui Li stopped in her tracks and said seriously.
After that, Rui Li didn't say anything more.
Not long after, Xia Weilan and Rui Li returned to the private room. Nan Fengyan immediately sat down beside Rui Li and explained:
"I just went to have a meal with her at that time..."
"Mr. Nan, you don't need to explain it to me." Rui Li looked calm, as if she didn't even want to listen to Nan Fengyan's words.
Nan Fengyan wanted to say something else, but seeing her expression, he finally swallowed his words.
After that, Nan Fengyan started to drink with Rui Li. Before long, Nan Fengyan was as drunk as he was when they first met. He passed out and fell directly on the table.
Finally, Mo Beichen asked someone to send Nan Fengyan back to the villa.
The next day, at the Mo family's old mansion.
In the hall, Grandpa Mo and Grandpa Xia were beaming as they were planning something. As they were talking, they nodded emphatically from time to time. This made Xia Weilan, who had just entered the door, slightly stunned.
Xia Weilan had been invited by Grandpa Mo to have dinner. She didn't expect that her own grandfather would also be there.
Mo Beichen, as always, was steady and calm. He led Xia Weilan and walked over slowly.
"Girl, come here quickly." Grandpa Mo waved to Xia Weilan as soon as he saw her.
Xia Weilan walked over obediently to Grandpa Mo's side and greeted the two grandfathers sweetly.
"Girl, I didn't prepare a gift for you on your birthday. I called you here today to give you a gift." After Grandpa Mo finished speaking, he immediately took out two plane tickets from his coat pocket and handed them over.
Xia Weilan took them in surprise. They were two tickets for her and Mo Beichen.
"You two are married, but you haven't had a honeymoon yet. In a couple of days, Grandpa is going to give you two a vacation and let you go out and have a good time." Grandpa Mo stroked his beard.
As soon as Grandpa Mo finished speaking, Grandpa Xia also cooperated: "Yes, girl, just go and have fun. I'll take care of the company's affairs."
After the two grandfathers finished speaking, they glanced at each other and saw the same wise glint in each other's eyes.
Hearing this, Xia Weilan looked up at Mo Beichen, waiting for his answer. As long as Mo Beichen was willing, she would surely be willing too.
Mo Beichen took the tickets from Xia Weilan's hand. The flight was the day after tomorrow. He pondered for a moment, then looked up and said, "Okay, this trip is exactly what I've been thinking."
Xia Weilan was standing beside Mo Beichen. Hearing his calm and reserved answer, her heart suddenly started to beat out of rhythm. She felt as if she had been injected with a shot of adrenaline, and her whole body was filled with a sense of happiness.
The two grandfathers smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
Since the tickets were for the day after tomorrow, Mo Beichen threw himself into the company's work for the next two days, handling some important matters in advance.
In the evening, Xia Weilan was waiting for Mo Beichen to come back at Jinxiu Yuting. As a result, she waited until midnight.
Outside the window, the moon was hazy and everything was silent.
Mo Beichen came in from outside, wrapped in the night. He was holding his windbreaker in one hand. As soon as he came in, he saw Xia Weilan sleeping on the sofa.
Mo Beichen couldn't help frowning. He walked silently up to Xia Weilan and looked at her peaceful sleeping face.
Aunt Tian saw that Mo Beichen had come back. She quickly walked over gently and whispered,
"Sir, the young mistress said she wanted to wait for you to come back before going to sleep. She was afraid of disturbing your work, so she didn't call you."
Hearing this, Mo Beichen's expression changed slightly. Suddenly, he bent down, put one hand around her waist, and gently picked her up.
In the room, Mo Beichen put Xia Weilan on the soft bed. Xia Weilan was sleeping soundly and didn't notice anything at all. Her eyelashes, like butterfly wings, were fluttering slightly. She was like a sleeping beauty.
The next day, which was the day for the honeymoon trip as agreed.
When Xia Weilan got up, she found that Mo Beichen was already standing in front of the wardrobe, looking refreshed. He was packing the neatly folded clothes into the suitcase.
After the two of them had breakfast, they went to the airport.
The itinerary was to travel in the country first and then go abroad.
The first stop was the Mo family's villa in the resort area.
