Xia Weilan was silent for a few seconds. Soon, a clear and melodious male voice came from outside. "It's me."
Only then did Xia Weilan feel relieved. She began to unzip her dress and took off the torn one. Just as she was about to reach for her clothes, Xia Weilan paused for a moment. Looking at the clothes beside her somewhat speechlessly, she said to Mo Beichen, "Could you please get the underwear on the bed for me? I forgot to take it."
There came a steady sound of footsteps from outside. Mo Beichen walked to the bedside. At a glance, he saw a strapless bra on the bed. Unconsciously, the image of Xia Weilan wearing this bra popped into his mind. He pursed his thin lips, reached out his hand to pick up the bra, and then turned around and walked towards the bathroom door.
"Here you are!" Mo Beichen said in a low voice.
Xia Weilan let out a sigh of relief. Just as she took the underwear, she heard a loud pounding on the door from outside. "That woman is staying here. Damn it! Let me teach her a good lesson. How dare she throw me down! Break the door down for me."
Hearing the noisy voices outside, Xia Weilan immediately thought of the person she had offended just now. Her heart skipped a beat. Hearing that the people outside were going to break down the door, without much thought, she reached out and grabbed Mo Beichen's wrist. With a strong tug, she directly pulled Mo Beichen into the bathroom.
Just at this moment, there was a loud noise from outside. The door was actually broken open.
"That bitch isn't in the room!" someone shouted.
Mo Beichen pressed Xia Weilan against the wall. His deep eyes squinted slightly as he caged the woman in front of him.
At this moment, Xia Weilan was only wearing a white slip with thin shoulder straps all over her body. Her entire fair and delicate shoulders were exposed in the air. And below, she was only wearing a pitifully small pair of underwear. One long leg was white and smooth.
Mo Beichen's gaze traveled all the way down along her shoulders. His expression was unreadable, and he didn't even care about the people who had suddenly broken in outside.
Under his gaze, Xia Weilan felt a bit embarrassed and averted her eyes. She said softly, "You should hide first."
After all, there was more than one person outside. Judging from the noisy voices, there were at least five or six people. And she definitely couldn't show herself at this moment.
Thinking of this, Xia Weilan immediately remembered that she hadn't put on her clothes yet. She quickly grabbed her dress and began to get busy.
Xia Weilan didn't even bother to change into a new bra. She just pulled the dress over her head. Her movements were extremely gentle and made no sound at all.
Seeing her eager movements, Mo Beichen couldn't help but curl his lips. He propped one hand against the wall and looked down at her busy figure with lowered eyes.
Just then, a rough voice suddenly came from outside. "There's someone in the bathroom. That bitch must be hiding in there."
Xia Weilan stopped her movements halfway through putting on the dress. She held her breath, but her hands kept moving. She quickly zipped up her dress. Her heart was pounding like a frightened deer.
Mo Beichen squinted his eyes. Hearing the pounding on the door getting louder and louder, he frowned impatiently and shouted in a deep voice, "Get out of here if you don't want to die!"
The pounding on the door outside immediately stopped.
The whole world fell into a strange silence.
The people outside didn't pound on the door anymore, but there was no sound of footsteps indicating that they had left either.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "bang". Someone actually kicked the door!
"There's another person. Grab him out and beat them both up!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Mo Beichen suddenly stepped back from Xia Weilan. He turned around, grasped the doorknob with one hand. Just as he was about to open the door, a sudden scream came from outside.
Mo Beichen paused for a few seconds. It wasn't until the chaos outside had subsided that he walked out.
Outside the door, An Shan and several bodyguards had already cleared the people away. At this moment, only An Shan was standing there with her head lowered. She said respectfully, "Mr. Mo, are you okay?"
Xia Weilan came out from behind him and finally let out a sigh of relief. She heard Mo Beichen instruct, "Find out who instigated this. Leave none of them alive."
"Yes." An Shan replied and immediately retreated.
Remembering the trouble she had caused, Xia Weilan explained to Mo Beichen, "Husband, I was harassed on the stage just now, so I knocked that person down. I didn't expect to be retaliated against like this and be chased here."
Xia Weilan felt a bit embarrassed because she had brought trouble to Mo Beichen.
However, Mo Beichen didn't pay attention to her explanation. Instead, his deep eyes were fixed on her red lips. They were opening and closing, looking extremely alluring. The cute little woman image of Xia Weilan just now popped into his mind, and his heart skipped a beat.
Xia Weilan couldn't figure out what Mo Beichen was thinking. Under his gaze, she couldn't help but straighten her clothes.
Just at this moment, Mo Beichen suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of her. His tall body caged her. Then, he lowered his head and stared intently at her red lips. They were small and perfect for kissing.
"Ah!" Xia Weilan was slightly startled by his sudden movement. The next second, when she opened her lips, he suddenly pressed down. His tongue invaded her mouth. His big hand grasped her slender waist and pressed her tightly against his chest.
After the initial panic, Xia Weilan quickly turned shy, and then quickly showed a look of indulgence.
It was just because Mo Beichen's kissing skills were so superb. It was as if he had experience. Every one of his actions was like a temptation, scratching the itchy part of her heart.
His hand slid across her back, sending electric currents through her body.
The attack on her lips was even more intense and lingering.
The double stimulation made Xia Weilan unable to resist.
Soon, she went limp in Mo Beichen's arms.
Mo Beichen let out a pleasant chuckle and picked her up by the waist, laying her on the bed.
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Xia Weilan immediately woke up like a start. Her eyes widened.
Mo Beichen's expression darkened, but the knocking on the door outside continued.
"Brother Mo, are you in there? Is sister-in-law feeling better?"
Nan Fengyan stopped knocking and called out tentatively outside the door.
Xia Weilan was extremely embarrassed. She suddenly got off the bed, straightened her clothes, and walked to the door to open it.
"Nan Fengyan, I'm much better."
Looking at the two people walking out one after another, Nan Fengyan showed a relieved expression. "Much better? Why do I think your complexion is not right?"
"Cough! Cough!" Xia Weilan averted her eyes and said stubbornly, "I just took some motion-sickness pills. I'm not feeling well."
Nan Fengyan was half - convinced and half - skeptical.
Mo Beichen put his arm around Xia Weilan's lower back and asked, "If you're not feeling well, should I ask the cruise ship to dock?"
At this moment, Xia Weilan still felt a bit dazed, but she didn't want to spoil the fun. So she said, "I'm fine."
Just then, An Shan walked over from the corridor. She stopped in front of the few people. Her expression was calm, and her voice was flat. "Mr. Mo, we've found out. This was instigated by Ouyang Mingqi. Ouyang Mingqi is also on the ship now."
