On the grass outside, the closer one got, the brighter the neon lights seemed. The man still stood there, motionless like a statue.
Mo Beichen looked up at the window. His ears caught the rustling sound from behind. As a man with extremely high vigilance, he suddenly turned around and stared sharply at the person coming. When he saw it was Xia Weilan, he was stunned for a moment, and then his gaze softened.
Xia Weilan was startled by Mo Beichen's reaction. She thought this man was indeed dangerous.
"You're here." Mo Beichen held out the flowers in his hand. His eyes were like a pool of autumn water, rippling with light.
"What are you doing here?" Xia Weilan reached out to take the flowers.
"I knew you would come down. And Xiaochun has been waiting for you. She won't go to sleep until you go back." Mo Beichen explained.
Thinking of Xiaochun, Xia Weilan tightened her grip on the flowers. "Let's go then."
A glint flashed in Mo Beichen's eyes, and he stepped forward.
Xia Weilan deliberately lagged half a step behind and took out the knife.
"What are you doing, Miss?" The butler's voice sounded beside her. Xia Weilan panicked. Without thinking, she stepped forward and stabbed the knife deep and hard into Mo Beichen's lower back.
Mo Beichen slowly let go of the car door, turned around, and looked at Xia Weilan in disbelief.
Xia Weilan took a step back, looking terrified.
"Don't be afraid." Mo Beichen said.
At this moment, the butler rushed towards Mo Beichen. After a look, he immediately shouted, "Quick, I'll take you to the hospital."
Xia Weilan stood there stunned. Seeing that Mo Beichen didn't show any anger at all, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. She had a feeling that tears were about to burst out. Some fragmented pictures suddenly flashed through her mind, causing her a splitting headache.
"Go and check on her first!" Mo Beichen pushed the butler away. The butler looked back and only then noticed that Xia Weilan was holding her head and had fainted on the ground.
When Xia Weilan woke up again, the bright light above her eyes made her close them uncomfortably. Then she slowly sat up, rubbing her forehead.
"You're awake." A gentle voice sounded beside her.
Xia Weilan opened her eyes again. This time, she found that Mo Beichen was sitting by the bedside, looking at her with a worried expression.
Xia Weilan stared blankly at him. Suddenly, she remembered those dream - like scenes in which she had taken a knife and stabbed Mo Beichen.
"Beichen, are you okay?" In an instant, Xia Weilan's tears flowed freely. Her eyes searched Mo Beichen's body, trying to find his wound. "I seem to have killed you. I'm so glad you're not dead. I dreamt that I killed you. No, it wasn't a dream."
Xia Weilan murmured to herself, but Mo Beichen let out a sigh of relief because Xia Weilan finally recognized him. "I'm fine. Look, I'm perfectly okay."
Sure enough, Xia Weilan gradually calmed down. Mo Beichen was dressed in a well - tailored suit. He didn't look like a seriously injured person at all, and he was looking at her gently.
"Is your wound healed?" Xia Weilan asked suspiciously.
"It's much better." Seeing that she was about to get out of bed, Mo Beichen immediately reached out to support her.
As if remembering something, Xia Weilan suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly and said, "By the way, what about Li Yumin? I remembered that it was him who pushed me into the sea. And I heard him say that he was going to deal with you."
Mo Beichen looked at their clasped hands. His eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "That man has been caught by Mo Nansheng. Now he's in prison and won't pose a threat to us anymore."
What Mo Beichen didn't say was that Mo Donglin was also involved in drug smuggling and had been arrested.
Thinking of Mo Nansheng's heart - broken look at that time, Mo Beichen closed his eyes.
Xia Weilan let out a sigh of relief and didn't notice Mo Beichen's complex expression at all.
When Xia Weilan came out of the bathroom again, she saw that there was a red stain on Mo Beichen's waist.
"You lied to me. Your wound isn't healed yet!" Xia Weilan exclaimed and immediately ran over. "Doctor, come quickly!"
Not long after, the doctor came in to check Mo Beichen's injury. He complained dissatisfiedly, "You patient never stop causing trouble. Why are you still walking around dressed like this?"
Mo Beichen didn't seem to care at all. His eyes were fixed on Xia Weilan's face.
Xia Weilan's face turned pale and then red. After the doctor left, she lowered her head, looking extremely guilty. "Husband, have you been sitting by my bedside these days? How long have I been in a coma?"
"Not long, just three days." Mo Beichen grabbed her hand and pulled her closer. His rough fingers wiped away the tears on her face.
Xia Weilan was in floods of tears. Suddenly, she cried very sadly. "I should have woken up earlier. Look at you. The wound opened just now when you supported me. Wuwu."
Seeing the blood in the trash can, Xia Weilan felt extremely heart - broken.
"I'm not dead yet. Why are you crying now!" Mo Beichen deliberately put on a straight face.
Sure enough, the next second, Xia Weilan pursed her lips and stopped crying. It was really embarrassing for such a grown - up person to cry in front of Mo Beichen.
Thinking of this, Xia Weilan silently turned her head and wiped away her tears.
In the following days, Xia Weilan always stayed by Mo Beichen's side to take care of him. With Xia Weilan's careful company, Mo Beichen's wound healed very quickly.
---
Two months later.
A woman in a white dress walked out of the wedding dress shop. Her makeup was delicate, making her usually serious eyebrows and eyes look much more charming. She held the heavy skirt in one hand. The dark patterns on the fabric reflected different lights from various angles. Below the hand holding the skirt was a pair of long, fair and beautiful legs, wearing semi - transparent lace - up stockings. She was dragging a pair of red high heels on her feet.
But she walked very unsteadily in these high heels.
Ruili walked out awkwardly. Her beautiful eyes frowned slightly, and she said uncomfortably, "This is so strange."
It was not just strange. She felt uncomfortable all over.
As soon as Xia Weilan saw Ruili's appearance, she walked forward in amazement, grabbed her hand, and pulled her in front of the mirror. "Look, how beautiful you are. You only get married once in your life. Get used to it."
Ruili, who had looked awkward before, was also stunned when she saw the beautiful woman reflected in the mirror. Then she smiled again. "Okay, just once. I'll get used to it."
"Come on, here's the veil. Let me put it on for you." Xia Weilan put the veil on her head. In an instant, Ruili looked even more incredibly beautiful, half - hidden.
"Is the bride ready? It's almost time." A man's voice came from outside, urging.
"Ready, ready. Coming, coming." Xia Weilan grabbed Ruili's hand and walked out with a playful smile.
In the church, when the bell rang, countless pigeons and balloons were released above.
On a carpet paved with petals, Nan Fengyan and Ruili walked slowly. They exchanged rings amidst the blessings of the crowd.
The scene of the oath was reflected in the eyes of a couple standing beside them.
Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen stood together, their hands clasped tightly.
Suddenly, as if they had a telepathic connection, they turned their heads at the same time and looked at each other.
They smiled at each other.
Just then, the night sky outside suddenly bloomed with fireworks. Countless fireworks exploded in the sky.
The firelight shone on the faces of the people below.
