Ch. 121..130
Chapter 121: Tell Me! Will You Allow Me to Look for Other Women? “What will you do if one day you see another woman and want to sleep with her?”
This is a concern all women have.
Let alone the fact that this scoundrel had described love so crudely and simply!
“Impossible.”
He knew himself too well, every time he saw Little Ghost he would lose control of his emotions.
“Don’t be so absolute, you haven’t tried other women, have you? What if?”
Qiao Ruoxin deliberately provoked the man, just to see how he was going to respond.
Mo Chen slightly narrowed his eyes, finished the cigarette, and stubbed out the butt in the ashtray.
The next second!
That tall figure suddenly pounced toward Qiao Ruoxin, pinning her down on the soft, luxurious bed.
Qiao Ruoxin, with a bewildered face, lay on the bed, staring at the handsome face of the man.
“What are you doing!”
“Little Ghost, it seems you really hope I go try other women?”
Mo Chen gripped her slender waist with great force, as if trying to break it.
She frowned slightly, twisting her body: “Let go! It hurts!”
The scoundrel’s robe had fallen open, allowing her a close-up view of his sexy chest and abs, very firm.
It must be said that Mr. Mo’s physical strength was indeed impressive.
Just a moment ago, he seemed as weak as a sickling, coughing up blood, but now he had revived, fully recharged.
Mo Chen, looking at her begging appearance, curled up the corners of his mouth: “I find that I sleep rather well when I’m lying on top of you.”
“…”
What kind of fetish is this!
He’s a complete pervert!
“But you’re really heavy, I can’t even breathe,” she protested pitifully.
The man raised his eyebrows slightly: “Oh? I have slept on top of you twice, haven’t I? You seem just fine.”
“…”
Mo Chen’s lips revealed an indulgent smile, his long fingers left her waist and took hold of her chin: “Still want me to find another woman?”
“It was just a joke, do you really have to take it so seriously?”
Why does this scoundrel have to hold grudges?
“Little Ghost, it seems you are not tired at all, shall we continue?”
!!!
She actually got the hint in a second!
Qiao Ruoxin opened her eyes wide, her clear, deer-like eyes filled with panic.
Trying to push his body away: “Are you crazy? Get off me!”
Seeing her so flustered and angry, Mo Chen’s smile deepened, holding her chin without letting go: “Say it! Still want me to find another woman?”
“No more, no more! You can only look for me! Happy now?”
The man nodded in satisfaction: “Hmm, that’s more like it.”
Finally, he released her chin, then lay down on the bed holding her, and covered them with a blanket.
“Sleep now, I’ve been tending to you all night, do you think I’m not tired?”
“…” She really wanted to bite him to death!
She lay on her side, tightly embraced in the arms of the man behind her.
She said somewhat resentfully, “Didn’t you say that you would suffer more pain and torment?”
Mo Chen’s deep voice sounded behind her ear: “As long as you feel good.”
“…”
Qiao Ruoxin lowered her head to look at the man’s arm around her waist: “Mo Chen brother, don’t take those drugs anymore, otherwise I really will ignore you.”
“Hmm…”
Then she heard the man’s regular breathing from behind her.
Damn!
He fell asleep that quickly?
It seems he was truly tired.
She also closed her eyes, and then suddenly the image of Mo Chen coughing up blood flashed through her mind.
Truthfully, when she walked into the bedroom and saw Mo Chen coughing up blood, her heart felt as if it were being pricked by dense, sharp needles, causing her immense pain.
The bedroom was pitch-dark.
So quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Qiao Ruoxin fell into a deep sleep, held in the arms of the man behind her.
Chapter 122: Kong Ling and the Capital’s Good-for-Nothing Together Maybe I was just too tired.
To think that I was held by this damn man and slept straight through to late noon.
When Qiao Ruoxin opened her eyes, it was already almost eleven in the morning.
She cast a glance back at the man behind her, still deep in slumber.
It seemed he was truly exhausted.
I still have to go practice dancing, with only a few days left until the debut night at the end of the month.
Gingerly, she removed the man’s arm from around her waist, pushed back the covers, and got out of bed to head to the bathroom.
Standing in front of the washstand, she looked at herself in the mirror.
Qiao Ruoxin immediately snapped to full alert.
Her eyes widened in shock.
Damn!
This damn man is nothing but a beast!
Mo Chen’s marks were left all over her fair skin.
How am I supposed to go out and face people like this!
Lowering her gaze, she noticed there were markings on her legs too!
I can’t even wear a skirt anymore…
Qiao Ruoxin, suppressing the urge to go out and bite the damn man to death, turned on the faucet and splashed cold water onto her cheeks.
Scenes from last night uncontrollably emerged in her mind.
Her cheeks turned hot.
She looked up at her reflection in the mirror, her complexion strangely rosy!
Could it be because I’ve been moisturized by love???
She shook her head, dismissing the thought, and picked up the electric toothbrush to start brushing her teeth.
After freshening up, Qiao Ruoxin walked out of the bathroom to find Mo Chen still sleeping.
She went to the walk-in closet to change into a new set of clothes, then left the bedroom.
Taking the elevator down to the first-floor reception hall, she ran into the butler and said, “Please prepare a car for me, I’m going out.”
“Miss Qiao, you didn’t have breakfast, are you going to skip lunch as well?”
“I’m not eating, I have no appetite. But when Mo Chen wakes up, make sure he remembers to eat.”
“Understood.”
…
The bodyguard drove her to MT Entertainment Company.
Even though Lu Xingyu didn’t have time to practice with her anymore, he would occasionally come over to supervise her.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw another vehicle pull up behind her.
The person who stepped out was Kong Ling and the driver was none other than that waste Jian Chen from the capital!
A flash of surprise crossed Qiao Ruoxin’s eyes.
How did these two end up together?
After parting ways with Jian Chen, Kong Ling entered the MT Entertainment Company.
Qiao Ruoxin followed her in, and they both stopped in front of the elevator.
“Do you know that Jian Chen is famous for being a waste in the capital?”
Kong Ling gave her a glance, “So what? We all have our needs. I must secure the C position this time! He said he will help me fight for it with all his might.”
She chuckled softly, “Do you really trust that waste from the capital?”
“Aren’t you doing the same, hooking up with your ex-boyfriend again for the sake of being the C position? You’re not one to talk,” retorted Kong Ling, as if she had turned to the dark side.
Qiao Ruoxin was slightly taken aback. Had she changed her character so quickly?
Truly inspiring, no wonder Kong Ling is known online as the ‘Goddess of Inspiration’.
With a ding, the elevator doors slowly opened.
Kong Ling walked in, not waiting for her to enter, but pressing the close button immediately.
The elevator doors closed slowly.
Qiao Ruoxin smiled faintly, quite undisturbed.
If this was the path Kong Ling chose for herself, she couldn’t care less. However, getting entangled with the capital’s waste may not be so easy to walk away from.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
Another new, unfamiliar number.
No need to guess, it was definitely simon.
She answered the call with a frosty gaze, “As the heir of the Lawrence Family, do you really have so much free time every day to swap numbers and make nuisance calls?”
The man’s gentle chuckle came through from the other end of the line, “Baby, it seems we have a telepathy connection, you knew it was me with just one look?”
Chapter 123: Because You Are Immature “Don’t be so intimate; I’m not familiar with you.”
Qiao Ruoxin wanted to hang up the call, but the man on the phone said, “I’m accompanying your mom for a check-up. Her health really isn’t good. Aren’t you going to come back and see her?”
Her heart tightened.
Mom…
Then, she regained her indifference, “Isn’t there you, the filial son, to show filial piety for me? She’s your stepmother after all, and your dad seems to really love her.”
“Baby, where were you last night? I couldn’t reach you by phone.”
Qiao Ruoxin couldn’t help but laugh, “Do you really want to know?”
“Mm, let’s hear it.”
“Oh, it’s nothing. Just doing bad things with my ex-boyfriend all night long, so~ I didn’t have time to answer the phone.”
“…”
The man’s voice on the other end of the phone instantly turned from gentle to furious, “Qiao Ruoxin! You better behave yourself!”
Finally, the elevator arrived. She entered and spoke, “Big brother, you’re so old, yet still so shy? Haven’t you done it? Besides, I was with my ex-boyfriend. It’s called getting back together, how is that not behaving myself?”
“Qiao Ruoxin! Once I’m free, I’ll see how I deal with you!”
“Mm-hm, by that time, I might just get married because of the baby.”
A light smile lifted on her delicate and pretty little face.
“Baby, you better not anger me. In the end, you’ll suffer. I don’t have a good temper either, and I might just lock you in a secret room this time, never to come out for the rest of your life.”
Qiao Ruoxin’s face changed instantly, and she hung up the phone angrily.
In fact, she was scared of Simon; those two years were purely a nightmare.
…
Evening.
Qiao Ruoxin was once again escorted to the Mo Family Estate by her bodyguards.
She sat alone in the dining room eating and couldn’t help but ask, “Where is he?”
“Master Mo is watching a movie in the garden. He asked you to join him after you finish your meal,” the maid answered.
A flicker of surprise crossed her face, “He actually watches movies?”
He usually seemed very impatient when watching a movie with her.
“We’re not sure either.”
“Mm, go ahead with your work.”
After dinner, she returned to her bedroom, took a bath, and put on a matcha green silk robe, with a strappy slip dress underneath.
Her romantic, gentle hair fell behind her.
Qiao Ruoxin arrived in the garden, and the first thing she saw was a movie screen hanging in midair.
This damn man really knew how to enjoy himself, watching an outdoor movie in the garden.
Moreover, the movie playing was her favorite, “Spirited Away.” She couldn’t help but smile and walked toward it.
Master Mo lay lazily on the couch, his long fingers propping up his forehead, and as he glanced over and saw her figure, his lips curled up, “Come here.”
Qiao Ruoxin approached him and, before she even sat down, was pulled into the damn man’s arms.
“Didn’t you say you disliked this movie?”
“Mmm, I wanted to understand why you liked this movie so much.”
She couldn’t help but smile, “Did you discover some life lesson from it?”
Mo Chen straightened up, his right arm encircling her slender waist, the other hand grasping her chin, “Because you’re childish.”
“…”
A steel-straight man without a hint of romance in his bones.
She struggled to sit on the couch beside him.
The man’s deep voice resonated in her ear, “Are you wearing anything inside?”
“…”
The next second, the damn man’s hand slid from her waist and touched her.
A low chuckle emanated from his throat, his voice languid and mocking, “Not wearing anything…”
Qiao Ruoxin pushed his body away and sat down beside him, “I’ve realized that you’ve become extremely shameless after you started eating meat!”
Mo Chen circled her thin shoulders with his right arm and let out a disdainful snort, “Men are all like this; I don’t want to be the exception.”
Chapter 124: Master Mo, do you want me to coax you? The movie screen suspended in mid-air was still showing “Spirited Away”.
Qiao Ruoxin glanced at the man’s sexy jawline with a smile and leaned on his shoulder.
The quiet of the late night, the faint fragrance in the garden, the gentle breeze.
Mo Chen’s dark eyes were fixed on the movie screen when he suddenly asked in a deep voice, “Does ‘No-Face’ like this kid?”
“…”
She didn’t speak, and the dog of a man stared at the movie screen, lazily saying, “This counts as puppy love, not good.”
Hehe…
Such a typical straight-guy perspective.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Qiao Ruoxin slapped the man’s chest hard with her little hand, “What puppy love, you don’t understand!”
Mo Chen withdrew his gaze, looking down at her puffed-up little face in his arms, his eyes suddenly darkened a bit, his brows expressing displeasure.
Qiao Ruoxin’s heart skipped a beat.
Did this dog of a man just turn his face so quickly?
“Little Ghost, have you ever had a puppy love?” His voice went from languid to serious.
“…” She blinked, “When I was in primary school, I thought a boy in my class was a bit handsome, does that count?”
In an instant, the man’s handsome face became a bit ugly, staring at her for three seconds before he said sternly, “How old?”
Qiao Ruoxin stifled the mischievous laughter bubbling within her, answering innocently, “I forgot, it was probably in fifth grade…”
Mo Chen snorted derisively, emitting a scornful scoff, “You know nothing! Talk about puppy love!”
Ten seconds passed.
She thought this topic would end there.
Unexpectedly, the dog of a man suddenly took hold of her chin, his overpowering aura pressing down on her.
“To what extent did you like him?”
“…”
Mo Chen’s possessiveness was truly frightening.
She couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
“Qiao Ruoxin!” He was angry!
She burrowed into the man’s embrace, hugging his body and said softly, “Mo Chen Brother, I was kidding you!”
Mo Chen’s eyebrows raised slightly, calming down a bit, “Are you playing me?”
“Who told you to be so domineering, even wanting to control my childhood!” She huffed lightly.
The dog of a man shoved her to one side and said coldly, “Stay away from me.”
Damn!
She cautiously probed, “Mo Chen Brother, are you mad?”
“Yes.”
So petty.
She sat up straight, both of them watching the movie without speaking to each other.
The atmosphere was awkward yet strange.
A trace of annoyance showed on Mo Chen’s coldly handsome face, his lips tightly closed.
Qiao Ruoxin sneaked a glance at him, her voice tender and sweet, “Mo Chen, do you want me to coax you?”
The man stared unwaveringly at the movie screen, answering simply, “Yes.”
She couldn’t help but smile.
This quick-tempered dog of a man was a bit adorable.
Qiao Ruoxin pressed against the man’s body, her cold little hand covering his eyes, then she initiated and kissed his thin lips.
The next second, the corners of Mo Chen’s mouth curled up.
His arms wrapped around her fine waist, while his other hand cradled the back of her head, deepening their kiss into a heated one.
Suddenly!
The sound of hurried footsteps approached, the maid ran over with a cell phone, “Mo Chen! Your phone has been ringing…”
The maid immediately froze on the spot, shocked by the scene before her.
Qiao Ruoxin immediately backed away from the man’s body and sat to the side, pretending to be admiring the scenery.
The man tidied up his disheveled shirt and glanced indifferently at the maid, “Who’s calling?”
The maid, embarrassed and blushing, handed over the phone, “It’s Miss Lin Xi…”
Lin Xi?
Qiao Ruoxin immediately turned back to look.
After the maid left, Mo Chen also stood up and glanced at her, “You continue watching, I’ll take a call.”
Chapter 125: Brother Mo Chen, I’m sorry…… “Stop right there!”
Qiao Ruoxin stood up, her little hands fiercely pushing against his chest, toppling the tall man’s body onto the sofa.
Then her slender, straight legs parted, straddling Mo Chen’s waist.
“We’ll take it here! I want to listen!” Defiance was written all over her little face.
Mo Chen slightly furrowed his brows but didn’t refuse, and answered the vibrating phone.
She leaned into the man’s embrace, quietly listening to the voice coming from the phone.
“Lin Xi, what’s up?” His voice was colder by several degrees, no longer as indulgent as before.
Qiao Ruoxin’s slender fingers fiddled with the man’s shirt collar, appearing nonchalant, like a noble ragdoll cat.
The man’s arms encircled her slender waist, his large hand caressing back and forth along her waist.
Lin Xi’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Mo Chen, come out for a drink, I’m at the club.”
Mo Chen glanced down at the Little Ghost lying in his embrace and replied in a deep voice, “I’m busy, no time.”
“I see, then alright, I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Beep… Beep…
The call ended, and he placed the phone to one side.
Qiao Ruoxin looked up at the man’s handsome face, “Mo Chen, what kind of relationship do you have with this Ms. Lin Xi? Do you like her?”
“Don’t like her.”
“Then does she like you?”
“Don’t know.”
Don’t know???
She got a bit angry, “If she doesn’t like you, why would she call you out for drinks in the middle of the night? Isn’t she just trying to seduce you after getting drunk!”
Mo Chen laughed out loud, touching her angry little face, “What on earth are you thinking about?”
“Isn’t it? Last time she also called you late at night. Why does she always have to call you in the middle of the night?”
“Last time she had a car accident.”
“…”
Indeed, an unassailable excuse.
Qiao Ruoxin intended to leave his embrace, but the man held her slender waist tight.
“Little Ghost, I don’t like her.”
“But she likes you!”
Seeing Qiao Ruoxin act jealous like this actually gave him a sense of accomplishment.
The man’s slender fingers held her chin, giving her a kiss on the lips, “Aren’t you trying to coax me?”
“Not coaxing anymore! Go find that flight attendant to coax you!”
Qiao Ruoxin got up from the man’s body, no longer in the mood to watch the movie, and turned to walk away.
But she had barely taken two steps before the man behind her picked her up around the waist and carried her towards the direction of the villa.
“Mo Chen! Put me down!”
The scoundrel of a man completely ignored her struggles, forcibly carrying her back to the bedroom.
He threw her onto the luxuriously soft bed, then loomed over her.
“Don’t touch me!”
Qiao Ruoxin cried out in alarm, writhing and squirming, trying to get away.
“Little Ghost, if it weren’t for her, you’d probably only be seeing my ashes by now.”
The man’s deep and indifferent voice brought her to a complete calm, her face filled with bewilderment.
“What did you say?”
Mo Chen embraced her slender body, looking directly into her beautiful eyes, “Two years ago, I was trapped in the mountains for two days and one night after a car accident; Lin Xi was camping there and found me.”
Her eyes widened in shock, immediately misting with tears.
He was actually trapped in the mountains for two days and one night!
Her tears overflowed.
The man’s slender fingers wiped away her tears, “Why are there always so many tears with you?”
“You are not allowed to drive when you’re too tired anymore…”
Qiao Ruoxin’s voice was filled with a plaintive cry.
“I’ve had no interest in her for two years, and I like her even less now,” his voice was low and steady, giving an invisible sense of security.
She wrapped her arms around the man’s body, crying, “Mo Chen, I’m sorry…”
Chapter 126: Little Ghost, You Can Only Be Mine If two years ago, Qiao Ruoxin had explained things earlier to Mo Chen, perhaps she wouldn’t have been imprisoned for two years.
And the series of events that followed wouldn’t have happened…
“That night two years ago, when I stopped you from beating him up, it wasn’t because I cared about him! It was because I was afraid you’d really kill him! I didn’t want you to end up in jail!”
She still vividly remembered that snowy night.
Simon’s blood was everywhere in the snow, and Mo Chen was like an uncontrollable beast, filled with murderous aura.
Mo Chen’s eyes were deep, staring at her for a long time.
Suddenly, he fiercely kissed her lips, drowning out all her unfinished words.
“Mmm! You… I am trying to talk to you seriously!”
All the emotions she had been brewing were destroyed by the damned man.
The man held her chin, looking straight into her dewy eyes, his voice low, “Little Ghost, I love you.”
At that moment, Qiao Ruoxin’s body stiffened, holding her breath.
It took a long time for her to recover.
To be honest, this was the first time she had heard Mo Chen say he loved her.
His love was as deep as the sea.
So the three words “I love you” coming from his mouth could be so… shocking, making her whole body tingle.
No wonder Mo Chen found her saying ‘I love you’ particularly disgusting.
Because it sounded like she was just saying it casually, without a speck of emotion.
Her long, thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, “I know.”
Her answer made the man let out a self-deprecating, cold laugh, “I love you so much I nearly lost my life, and if you didn’t know that, you’d be an idiot!”
The next second, Mo Chen’s eyes darkened, his voice tinged with melancholy, “But you don’t love me.”
“I haven’t…”
He couldn’t see any love in Qiao Ruoxin’s confused expression.
Before meeting Qiao Ruoxin, he had never thought he could be so obsessive about a woman, even a bit twisted.
If he hadn’t met Little Ghost, he thought, he might have been like all the other rich kids, flirting and carousing every night.
Because he considered all women the same, merely tools for release.
But then, under that sunset, he accidentally saw 12-year-old Qiao Ruoxin, gorgeous and proud, shining brilliantly.
It turns out, the feeling of love at first sight really exists.
The sensation was indescribable, addictive, and something he could no longer settle for less.
The atmosphere in the bedroom was a bit stiff and awkward.
Qiao Ruoxin looked somewhat panicked, with tears still brimming in her eyes.
“Mo Chen brother, I just haven’t learned about love yet…”
The man let out a deep sigh and kissed her smooth, white forehead, “Little Ghost, you can only belong to me.”
“Of course, I’m yours. I will not fall for another man. Don’t think about those things…”
Her words were incomplete when Mo Chen let out a cold laugh, “That’s because you haven’t experienced what it’s like to fall in love at first sight.”
“…”
Qiao Ruoxin was stunned, love at first sight?
The arm that held her waist tightened, jealousy burgeoning in his heart, he ground out through clenched teeth, “Qiao Ruoxin! I really want to know which man would make you fall in love at first sight! I’ll find him, and then I’ll kill him!”
His self-esteem and pride had taken a hit with her.
Since childhood, he had been the center of attention and had everything one could wish for.
But the fact that Qiao Ruoxin didn’t love him was something he could do nothing about.
Qiao Ruoxin muttered with a touch of grievance, “But I think I do love you…”
“You call this love? Knowing I’m allergic to strawberries, yet you forced me to eat them? Knowing I love you, yet you walked past me with that trash? Knowing I love you, yet you disappeared off the face of the Earth for a full two years?”
This sudden outburst of rage made Mo Chen seem terrifying at that moment.
Chapter 127: Brother is wrong, can you stop crying? She paused slightly.
Mo Chen was unable to suppress the boiling rage inside him as he grasped her chin, “Qiao Ruoxin! Is this what you call love, damn it!”
In that instant, her tears began to flow.
Seeing her tears, the angry yet handsome man’s face showed a trace of panic.
“You start crying just because I speak sharply to you!”
Still speaking harshly, but he tenderly embraced Qiao Ruoxin, comforting her, “Little Ghost, don’t cry, alright?”
But Qiao Ruoxin cried even harder, feeling even more aggrieved.
Even a fine layer of sweat beaded on her smooth forehead.
Mo Chen frowned and lifted her up from the bedroom to the couch on the terrace.
The cool night breeze blew by, making her feel much cooler and more clear-headed.
She sat in the man’s arms, looking pitiful with her tear-streaked face resembling a tearful pear blossom.
Crying like a child, she continued to sob incessantly.
“Brother is wrong, will you stop crying please?” He held Qiao Ruoxin’s body, it was the first time he saw Qiao Ruoxin cry so painfully.
This Little Ghost was becoming more and more like him.
Crying so much over just a few words, was she that wronged?
Qiao Ruoxin shook her head, her eyes red from crying, with tears still hanging on her eyelashes, “It’s not that… I just realized that I’ve been so terrible to you? Why didn’t you ever say anything before…”
Mo Chen wiped away the tear stains on her cheeks with a tissue, and gave a self-mocking cold laugh, “I’m not that sentimental.”
She looked at the man’s indifferent handsome face with those pitiable eyes, “When I was younger… I really disliked boys, so I never had those kinds of thoughts when I saw men.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know, maybe a rebellious phase, I just couldn’t help but bully boys.”
Now that he thought about it, the first time he saw this Little Ghost seemed to be when she was bullying a boy, only he noticed the boy seemed to quite enjoy being ‘bullied’.
Qiao Ruoxin took the initiative to hug the man’s neck and accidentally saw the faint bite mark on Mo Chen’s shoulder, visible inside his collar.
It was her bite…
“Brother Mo Chen, I’ll be nicer to you in the future.” Her eyes were beautiful and lively, bright and clear, with immense allure.
Mo Chen’s slender fingers pinched her chin, and he sneered, “How do you plan to be nicer to me?”
“Hmm…” Her lively eyes spun around, “What do you think?”
“No matter how much is said, nothing can predict how you’ll actually choose when the time comes.”
“…”
How could she detect a hint of despair in this man’s voice?
Clearly, Mo Chen didn’t believe in vows of eternal love.
“You don’t believe me?” she said, somewhat angrily.
Mo Chen laughed softly, his voice cold and merciless, “Can I believe you?”
“…” Her eyes dimmed slightly.
“Little Ghost, don’t disappear again, or you’ll see just how cruel a powerful man can be when desperate, sparing no one related to you.”
Qiao Ruoxin shivered suddenly, “What are you going to do?”
…
Downtown.
Lin Xi stood outside the nightclub, staring at the hung-up call, then dialed an international number.
“Simon, he won’t come out. I’ve told you, he doesn’t have me in his heart.”
“Heh… Miss Lin, I don’t care what methods you use, stop them from getting back together, or else, you understand.”
Lin Xi panicked, “Mo Chen just doesn’t like me, what can I do!”
“Getting into a man’s bed is the most effective move, aren’t you the best at that?”
“You! Shameless! It was clearly you who set me up back then!”
The laughter of the man on the other end of the phone was arrogant, “Who cares about that? But it’s true that you slept with your boss, and there’s video evidence.”
Beep… beep…
Chapter 128: Little Ghost, will you marry me? Late at night, on the balcony.
Qiao Ruoxin leaned into the man’s arms and gradually fell asleep, her sleeping face serene.
The night breeze was cool, the night atmosphere enticing.
Mo Chen looked down at her sleeping in his embrace, a smile curving his lips.
The next second, he gently lifted her up, turned, and returned to the bedroom.
Qiao Ruoxin was placed on the bed, where she adjusted herself into a comfortable position and continued to sleep.
The man leaned over and stared at her for a minute.
The cellphone on the nightstand began to vibrate.
Then, he leaned on the bed, picked up the cellphone, and opened the brothers’ group chat.
Bai Junyan: “Heard from Lan Ke that you two soaked in the hot springs last night??? Did you get any ‘real business’ done?”
Ji Haochuan: “Damn! Really???”
Mo Chen: “Mhm.”
Ji Haochuan: “Hahaha… Was it good! Was it good! Was it good!”
Mo Chen: “Roll!”
Bai Junyan: “You’ve been wasting the prime of your manhood for two years! Hasten and have her make it up to you!”
Gu Mocheng: “I’ve always said, make her submit to you, make her cry.”
Lu Siheng: “…”
He glanced at the cellphone screen and set the phone aside.
Looking down at Qiao Ruoxin, who was deeply asleep, her thick and long eyelashes were still moist.
The man’s slender, well-defined fingers touched her cheek, and a doting smile spread across his lips.
Suddenly, he leaned over her, gazing at her peaceful sleeping face, his voice low and tender, “Little Ghost, will you marry me?”
The air was so quiet.
“No response means you agree.” His dark and profound eyes were filled with intense possessiveness.
Mo Chen lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips, then said in a commanding tone, “No backing out. Even if you regret it, you’ll endure it for me!”
However, the sleeping Qiao Ruoxin was unaware of what had transpired.
…
The next morning.
Qiao Ruoxin slowly opened her eyes, stretched lazily, turned over, and realized that Mo Chen was already gone from beside her.
She reached for her cellphone on the nightstand and saw that it was already well past ten o’clock!
She had an appointment with her dance teacher today!
She instantly woke up, sat up abruptly, threw off the covers, and walked toward the bathroom.
After washing up and changing clothes, she was escorted by the bodyguard to MT Entertainment.
The dance teacher had been waiting for quite some time.
“Qiao student, are you planning to start in the afternoon?”
She chuckled awkwardly: “Sorry, teacher, I overslept.”
“If it wasn’t for giving Lu Xingyu a perfect stage performance, I couldn’t care less about you.”
This was Lu Xingyu’s dance teacher; she could only endure.
“Yes, I don’t want to embarrass the teacher, please give me more guidance~”
…
Meanwhile.
At Hengzhong Group, CEO’s office.
Mo Chen sat in his revolving chair behind the desk, wearing a black shirt with the sleeves casually rolled up, revealing a black wristwatch.
A knock on the door sounded.
He looked up: “Come in.”
Assistant Liu entered with several folders in hand, standing in front of the desk.
“President Mo, these are the wedding ring designs I’ve collected; all are masterpieces from famous international jewelry designers.”
The man glanced at the designs, and while they were beautiful, there was nothing special about them.
“She likes things that are one of a kind.”
The bracelet ‘Mermaid’s Tears’ that he previously gave Qiao Ruoxin was so treasured by her because it was unique.
Assistant Liu was taken aback, then took back the folders: “Yes, then I’ll continue looking for you.”
“Mhm.”
Chapter 129: Mo Chen Has a Date with Lin Xi? Evening.
The day’s dance practice had finally ended.
Qiao Ruoxin felt like she was about to collapse from exhaustion.
After she got into the car, she said to the bodyguard, “Please call Mo Chen and tell him I want to have dinner with him.”
“Certainly, Miss Qiao.”
Then, she lay down in the back seat of the car, utterly drained.
She heard the bodyguard on the phone.
“Xiaowu, Miss Qiao said she wants to have dinner with Master Mo… What? Master Mo has plans tonight? With Miss Lin Xi? Alright, bye.”
Lin Xi!
Upon hearing the name Lin Xi, she instantly sat up and looked at the bodyguard, “Mo Chen has plans with Lin Xi?”
“That’s what Xiaowu said.”
Rage invaded Qiao Ruoxin’s eyes in an instant—was that flight attendant going too far?
…
The Western restaurant.
Lin Xi was wearing a sexy and elegant red dress that highlighted her figure.
Her makeup was heavy and seductive, obviously prepared for the occasion.
Mo Chen narrowed his eyes slightly as he scanned Lin Xi’s attire for the evening, and said in a deep voice, “Is there a need to dress like this to see me?”
Lin Xi laughed, “Aren’t you a man? Why wouldn’t there be a need?”
His face remained expressionless, “Do you need something from me?”
“Can’t I find you if there’s no problem? Why couldn’t you come out last night, were you with your ex-girlfriend?”
He picked up the lemon water from the table, took a sip, and responded indifferently, “Mhm.”
Lin Xi, “Aren’t you afraid she’ll let you down again?”
Mo Chen’s frown was instant, and a chill shrouded his handsome features, with annoyance filling his dark eyes.
Suddenly!
A familiar figure entered his sight, causing a touch of surprise to cross his face.
The waiter was leading Qiao Ruoxin and her bodyguard to a table opposite them.
Qiao Ruoxin gently settled her dress and sat down, then glanced at the bodyguard, “Sit.”
The bodyguard was filled with surprise, sit down and dine with Miss Qiao??? Master Mo would kill him…
Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore!
“Qiao Ruoxin!” he called out to the proud and pretty Little Ghost in anger.
Qiao Ruoxin simply smiled, “Mo Chen, what a coincidence, are you here too?”
Then, she looked at the bodyguard again, her tone commanding, “I told you to sit down! Can’t you even dine with me?”
The bodyguard, feeling awkward, looked towards Master Mo.
The next second.
Mo Chen rose angrily, the sound of the chair scraping the floor was grating.
Lin Xi could only watch helplessly as he walked towards the opposite side.
The tall and imposing figure of the man made his way to Qiao Ruoxin, blocking all the light from reaching her.
He firmly grasped her slender wrist, yanking her to her feet, and hissed through clenched teeth, “I’ll damn well dine with you!”
As expected…
Qiao Ruoxin’s lips curved slightly, “Wait for me.”
She wrestled free from the man’s hold and made her way towards the flight attendant named Lin Xi.
Lin Xi realized why both Mo Chen and Simon were so enamored with this pampered little princess as she stood before her.
“Miss Lin, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda, but this isn’t your means to approach him.”
Lin Xi was speechless.
Lin Xi scoffed coldly, “We’re both women, I understand your mindset, only by not loving him can you treat him so, and if you don’t love him, why torment him?”
Qiao Ruoxin stared fiercely into Lin Xi’s eyes, on the verge of exploding any second.
The man’s tall figure approached, grabbed her wrist, and dragged her out of the restaurant.
Lin Xi stood rooted to the spot, watching the scene unfold, her emotions extremely complex.
As long as Qiao Ruoxin was present, Mo Chen became blind to anyone else’s existence—how could she ever climb into his bed? It was a mere fantasy!
Chapter 130: When Did I Agree to Marry You? Inside the car.
“It really hurts, stop pinching my waist…”
Qiao Ruoxin’s slender waist was gripped tightly by the man, the strength suffocating, as if he intended to snap it in half.
Upon hearing her tender voice, Mr. Mo finally let her go.
He looked down at the Little Ghost in his arms, his voice ominous and terrifying, “I fucking shouldn’t have gotten you a male bodyguard!”
Qiao Ruoxin was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter, “Do you really think I’m interested in your bodyguard?”
“…”
The man’s eyes darkened.
“That was just to piss you off, who told you to go on a date with another woman behind my back!” She huffed angrily, pushing away the bastard’s body.
Mo Chen gripped her chin roughly, “Qiao Ruoxin! You promised to marry me last night! And today you’re deliberately making me angry? I really fucking want to kill you!”
???
When did she agree to marry him?
She couldn’t remember a thing.
Was she talking in her sleep?
She looked puzzled, “When did I agree to marry you? I don’t remember?”
The bastard spoke ferociously, “While you were asleep last night!”
“How could I have agreed while asleep? You’re lying to me again!”
A flicker of embarrassment crossed Mo Chen’s dark eyes as he looked out the car window, “Silence means consent.”
Qiao Ruoxin was entirely flabbergasted!
Heh, this bastard is something else!
“Of course I don’t talk in my sleep! You took advantage of me! Why didn’t you ask me when I was awake?”
Qiao Ruoxin leaned in close, peering at the man’s handsome features, “Brother Mo Chen, what are you afraid of?”
Mo Chen shoved her away abruptly, his laugh scornful, “What would I be afraid of? You have to agree even if you don’t want to, I have plenty of ways to make you agree!”
But what if the Little Ghost doesn’t agree?
She couldn’t help but chuckle, “What ways will you use to make me agree? Let’s hear it.”
She was genuinely curious about what methods this bastard would use to coerce her into agreeing.
After five seconds, or perhaps ten.
The car was silent when suddenly, the man’s deep voice sounded, “Pregnancy.”
!!!
Qiao Ruoxin was shocked, “Mo Chen! You asshole! I’m still in the competition! It takes a year to debut and dissolve the group, and the penalty is double the fee!”
“Have you forgotten that I’m the daddy of your employer?”
“…”
True, the main sponsor of the show was a subsidiary of Hengzhong Group.
Suddenly!
Qiao Ruoxin seemed to remember something, her face flushed with panic, “The night before last… I didn’t take the pill! Oh no, what if I’m pregnant?”
Seeing her terrified appearance, the man’s face grew darker, his voice low and menacing, “I fucking used a condom!”
“Oh…”
A wave of relief washed over her.
She couldn’t get pregnant now!
This was her closest chance to her dream yet!
She couldn’t afford any mistakes.
Qiao Ruoxin’s face broke into a sweet smile, “Brother Mo Chen, you’re quite considerate…”
“Little Ghost, you don’t want to marry me?” he asked, his deep voice tinged with anger.
She dove into the man’s arms, her dainty chin resting on his shoulder, “Not at all, just not right now, of course I’ll marry you.”
At her response, Mr. Mo’s icy expression eased slightly, and a smile curled at his lips.
His large hand stroked her gently flowing hair from behind, kissing her earlobe as he whispered, “Why do you want to marry me?”
“Isn’t it because you told me to marry you?”
“…”
She could distinctly feel the bastard’s fury about to explode.
“Is there anything more persuasive than the words ‘I want to’?”
The Little Ghost pleased him using his own words.
Mr. Mo’s smile grew even more intense, holding her tight against him.
