Grandpa Mo strode out directly. "Hurry up and come to the hospital with me."
Without a word, Liu Yinyin followed Grandpa Mo out. Mo Donglin, who was one step behind, looked at Liu Yinyin's back in surprise and frowned.
"Drive faster," Grandpa Mo urged the driver.
"Yes," the driver had already driven at full speed. If he drove any faster, he wouldn't be able to see the road clearly.
Not only was Grandpa Mo anxious, but Liu Yinyin also looked extremely flustered.
Little did the worried Liu Yinyin know that all her behaviors at this moment were seen by Mo Donglin.
Mo Donglin looked at his wife, but felt that he didn't know her at all. Maybe he had indulged her too much before and ignored her real intentions behind every action.
At this moment, his wife showed such an expression for another man, as if that man was the one she had always been longing for.
Mo Donglin's face turned pale.
In the hospital, Mo Beichen's wound had been treated. He was lying weakly against the head of the bed, consoling the person beside him. "It's okay. I'm fine, aren't I? I knew you could dodge. It was me who insisted on taking the hit. You don't have to blame yourself."
Mo Beichen felt a pang in his heart when he saw Xia Weilan's red eyes.
Just then, three people walked in and happened to hear his words.
Without thinking, Liu Yinyin rushed in directly. "Good for you, Xia Weilan. What did you do to hurt Beichen like this? You're such a troublemaker."
Grandpa Mo and Mo Donglin walked in afterwards.
Grandpa Mo frowned and walked to Mo Beichen's bed. He casually said, "Donglin, keep your wife in check."
Mo Donglin stepped forward silently and put his arm around Liu Yinyin's shoulder, but she shrugged it off. Mo Donglin's expression darkened, and he stood there without moving.
"Grandpa," Xia Weilan called out and explained. "We had a car accident on the road and were chased by a killer. The killer was really after me."
Xia Weilan looked at Grandpa Mo calmly.
But the next moment, Mo Beichen coughed heavily. "It's not her fault."
Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen exchanged a look.
Grandpa Mo sighed. "It's good that you're okay. No one is wrong in this matter. The one at fault is the person who is causing trouble behind the scenes. Beichen, you should rest well. Grandpa will find that person for you."
"Thank you, Grandpa," Mo Beichen replied weakly.
Liu Yinyin was a bit unwilling, but since Grandpa clearly wouldn't blame Xia Weilan, she gritted her teeth and said, "Weilan, look at you. You're so clumsy and don't know how to take care of people. How about I stay tonight to help you take care of him? Well, he's so badly injured. I used to learn some nursing skills. It just so happens that I can put them to use."
Grandpa Mo didn't say anything. Liu Yinyin did learn nursing for a while before, but somehow her words sounded strange.
"Yinyin, let Weilan take care of him," Mo Donglin pulled Liu Yinyin's hand.
Liu Yinyin was reluctant.
"You don't have to trouble yourself, sister-in-law. It's just a minor injury. Weilan can handle it," Mo Beichen gave Liu Yinyin a cold look.
Liu Yinyin felt aggrieved. She did all this for him, but he didn't appreciate it.
He was really ungrateful.
But seeing him injured like this, she couldn't bear to be angry with him.
"Then I'll go and prepare some nutritious porridge and send it over early tomorrow morning," Liu Yinyin said again.
The next second, Mo Donglin directly pulled Liu Yinyin out. "Let's not stay here and affect the two of them. Let's go back first."
In the ward, Grandpa also left, leaving only Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan.
As soon as the room became quiet, Mo Beichen, exhausted from the loss of blood, leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.
Xia Weilan thought he was asleep and was about to help him lie down when, the next moment, Mo Beichen opened his eyes. His clear eyes fixed on Xia Weilan, and his voice was filled with guilt. "Today is New Year's Eve. I thought nothing would happen, so I gave all the bodyguards a holiday. I didn't expect to put you in danger. I'm sorry."
Even Xu Wei had gone back to his hometown today.
Mo Beichen wasn't afraid of danger himself, but he forgot that Xia Weilan needed someone to protect her.
"What are you talking about?" Xia Weilan didn't know whether to be angry or laugh. "Why does it seem to be your fault? You even want to take the blame for this kind of thing."
Mo Beichen hooked his lips. Looking at her lively appearance, he couldn't help but pull her to sit on the edge of the bed.
The next second, Mo Beichen's phone on the table rang.
Xia Weilan reached out to answer it. She glanced at the caller ID and was shocked to find that it was Mo Beichen's mother calling. For a moment, the phone in her hand felt like it weighed a thousand pounds.
Could it be that Mo's mother knew that Mo Beichen was injured and was calling to ask about the situation?
"What's wrong?" Mo Beichen noticed Xia Weilan's strangeness. He reached out to take the phone, was stunned for a moment, but didn't answer it immediately. Instead, he patted Xia Weilan's hand and comforted her. "It's not what you think. My mom calls me every New Year's Eve."
Xia Weilan didn't know why she was so nervous. In her previous life, Mo's mother didn't like her, but in this life, Mo's mother hadn't met her yet. Xia Weilan thought that she would behave well this time, and there definitely wouldn't be the same situation as in her previous life where they couldn't stand each other.
"Hello," Mo Beichen answered the phone. His voice was deep.
"Yeah, I'm fine. How are you all?" Mo Beichen's voice remained calm as usual. His eyes were fixed on Xia Weilan, and he raised his eyebrows slightly with a smile.
"Okay, Weilan and I are waiting for you all to come back to attend our wedding... What? You're worried? Don't be. Weilan is a very nice person. You'll definitely like her. Just rest assured," Mo Beichen said a lot to his mother.
After Mo Beichen hung up the phone, he looked at Xia Weilan, who was so nervous that she was sweating. He couldn't help but tease her. "They'll be back in a few days. Why? Are you very nervous?"
Xia Weilan stuck out her tongue and looked at him awkwardly. She remembered that in her previous life, she had deliberately been rude to Mo's mother, and she felt a bit guilty.
Mo Beichen raised his eyebrows. He felt that Xia Weilan at this moment was like a primary school student who was afraid of meeting her parents. Sure enough, she was still too young and took some things too seriously.
As soon as Liu Yinyin got home, she immediately slipped into the kitchen and gave instructions about preparing the nutritious porridge for tomorrow morning.
When Liu Yinyin came out, she saw Mo Donglin standing there with a gloomy face, still in the same position as when he had just entered the house, as if he hadn't moved.
"What's wrong with you?" Liu Yinyin walked over and only then noticed something was different about Mo Donglin.
Mo Donglin looked at Liu Yinyin with a complex expression. Suddenly, he picked up his coat and said lightly, "I'm going out for a while."
"Okay. Be careful," Liu Yinyin thought he had something to deal with and didn't ask any questions. She just casually let him go.
That night, Mo Donglin drank in the bar all night by himself and was sent back in the middle of the night.
Mo Donglin returned to the bedroom. Looking at the sleeping Liu Yinyin, he suddenly felt a surge of anger. He rushed over and started to undress Liu Yinyin.
"What are you doing?" Liu Yinyin said groggily.
"What am I doing? Don't you want to have a child quickly?" Mo Donglin's words were hard to tell whether he was angry or not.
"What child? I'm taking birth control pills. How could there be a child?" Liu Yinyin turned over and murmured unconsciously.
But the hand that was fumbling on her body suddenly stopped. Then, Mo Donglin looked at her in disbelief.
"What did you say about birth control pills?" he asked.
But Liu Yinyin had fallen asleep again and didn't give him any response.
Mo Donglin sat on the edge of the bed. Suddenly, he pulled open the cabinet and rummaged through it. He found nothing. Then, he found Liu Yinyin's handbag. Finally, he rummaged out a bottle called "birth control pills" from it. It was a monthly pill, with a total of 24 pills, and now only 5 were left.
From the time they got married until now, it was just one pill per month.
That night might have been the most difficult night Mo Donglin had ever spent.
He just stared fixedly at Liu Yinyin's sleeping face. His mind was filled with all the things Liu Yinyin had said before. "I only joined the company for you. I flattered Mo Beichen just to help you gain a firm foothold. I've done all this for you..."
Countless words repeated over and over again, filling his mind.
Making him unable to find peace.
