Chapter 163: Chapter 163: I’m Fine Being a Beast
Qiao Ruoxin turned around intending to leave, but was suddenly pulled into a man’s embrace; his arm secured around her slender waist.
“Little Ghost, don’t move. Let’s hug for a bit.” His voice was gentle and enchanting, almost beguiling.
She truly stopped struggling, allowing the man to hold her body.
With her cheek against the man’s chest, she listened to his heartbeat and spoke with a soft, glutinous voice, “Mo Chen Big Brother, let’s sleep in separate rooms tonight.”
Suddenly, Mo Chen’s expression turned cold as he looked down at her in his arms, his tone harsh, “What do you an by that?”
Qiao Ruoxin stepped out of the man’s embrace, looked up, and blinked, “I want to make a good impression on your mom. Otherwise, she might think I’m too casual.”
Upon hearing her say this, the displeasure on the man’s handso face slowly faded away.
Seeing that he didn’t respond, she then embraced his arm and gently shook it, “Promise , promise…”
Those moist and pitiful eyes looked up at him. Mo Chen glanced at her and scoffed, “As you wish.”
A smile spilled over Qiao Ruoxin’s lips: “Mo Chen Big Brother, you are especially, especially gentlemanly tonight.”
Unexpectedly, Mo Chen replied coldly, “Don’t play that ga with , I’d rather be a beast and crawl into your bed in the middle of the night.”
“…”
He’s really such a dog of a man!
It was already late at night.
She and Mo Chen returned to the guest room where they would rest for the night.
Since Mo Chen’s bedroom was a bit far from hers, the dog of a man was showing so moodiness again.
Qiao Ruoxin’s small hand was held by the man as they stepped toward the door, Mo Chen expressionless and a hint of displeasure in his brow.
“Alright, go back to sleep, good night.”
But Mo Chen held onto her hand and refused to let go, his tall body blocking her light.
Although Mo Chen had not said a word, she sohow managed to read a sentence from his handso face: The master is in a bad mood, cheer
up!
Feeling sowhat helpless, she stepped forward, tiptoed, and kissed the corner of the man’s lips, “Is that okay?”
The unexpressive handso face ward a bit as he suddenly leaned in close to her face, re centiters away, and spoke in a low voice, “Kiss properly, don’t half-ass it.”
Qiao Ruoxin suddenly looked behind him and called out, “Mrs. Mo!”
Mo Chen instinctively turned to look, and then she took advantage of the mont to quickly escape back into the guest room, locking the door behind her.
Only after the door shut did he realize he’d been played.
He laughed, his long fingers tapping on the door twice, “Little Ghost, open the door.”
“No, I won’t open it. Go to sleep! I’m tired!”
— From behind the door.
Who knows how much ti passed. Qiao Ruoxin, leaning against the door, couldn’t hear any noise outside anymore.
So, she quietly opened the door, only to find that Mo Chen had long since disappeared.
Only then did she close the door again, preparing to shower and go to bed.
That’s when her phone rang. She answered the call, “Hello…”
“I am Mo Chen’s mother. Could you co down to the living room for a chat?”
“Yes, please wait a few minutes for .”
After hanging up the phone, she wasn’t surprised in the least.
There was no way Mrs. Mo asking her over was just for a simple al; she had prepared herself ntally a long ti ago.
She could even guess what Mrs. Mo wanted to talk to her about.
…
She left the guest room, took the elevator to the first floor, and found the Mo Family Estate vast, vast enough to get soone lost.
Arriving alone at the living room, she indeed saw Mrs. Mo sitting there, the light dim, resembling a scene from a tribunal.
Suddenly, Qiao Ruoxin felt a bit nervous.
