Chapter 22 Sleeping Beauty

The slender index finger tapped lightly on the thin lips, and the slightly hooked corners of the mouth showed a bit of evil charm, which made people blush and heartbeat.

Uncomfortably turning her head away, Xia Mo's gaze was a little dodgy.

Who said that this man is hard-hearted and ruthless, why doesn't she feel it at all?Apart from domineering, all she felt was... lustful!

What a cold-blooded domineering president is simply a black-bellied pervert!
"Cough, that, I'm a little sleepy..." Coughing lightly, Xia Mo's eyes kept wandering around the room, not daring to look directly at Nian Yichen.

As soon as she finished speaking, she took a step forward.Before he could step out, a teasing voice sounded behind him, "Momo, it's not your style to run away when things happen!"

Her pretty face flushed instantly, and the embarrassment of being exposed made her feel awkward.The footsteps are squatting there, neither advancing nor retreating.

"What, what are you running away from? How could I run away! I'm really sleepy!" Xia Mo explained hastily, but Xia Mo didn't notice at all that there was a hint of resentment in her voice.

"It's better if you don't run away! As the saying goes, you can repay your kindness, even if Momo is sleepy, you should express your gratitude before going to bed!"

While speaking, Nian Yichen had strode up to her.The closer the distance made Xia Mo's heart beat faster, she shrank back, she was so nervous that she didn't even know where to put her hands.

"Nian Yi...Chen..." Na Na called, Xia Mo's voice trembled, and her watery eyes stared at the man in front of her vigilantly.

The innocent appearance like Bambi's is really palpitating and emotional, and the slightly pursed red lips are glowing, like bright cherries tempting to pick.

Staring at her slap-sized face with falcon-like eyes, Nian Yichen's heart suddenly softened, and finally he suppressed the eagerness in his heart.

"Hey, go to sleep when you're tired!" The big palm rubbed her hair, the soft voice made Xia Mo feel unreal.

His face flushed instantly, and his fair skin looked more and more tender, as cute as a peach.

The eyes of the two collided and entangled in the air, as if only the two of them were left in the whole world, and an ambiguous atmosphere quietly grew...

"Momo, if you stare at me so 'affectionately' again, I don't guarantee that you will be able to take a normal lunch break later!"

There was a tinge of hoarseness in the teasing voice, and an unknown light flickered in his slightly squinted eyes. Xia Mo had no experience, so he couldn't understand the deep meaning, but his intuition was dangerous.

Her whole body trembled unconsciously, she hastily looked away, said 'I'm going to sleep', and left as if fleeing.

The hasty footsteps were a bit messy, and the thin lips were slightly hooked. Nian Yichen couldn't help but kindly reminded, "Be careful of wrestling!"

As soon as these words came out, Xia Mo's steps stopped and he ran even faster.

Looking at her panicked back, Nian Yichen glanced at the clock, took the computer and went back to the study without stopping.

……

The sun gradually slanted towards the west, and the rays of the sun lazily projected in through the gaps in the curtains, but it didn't affect Xia Mo who was sleeping at all.

Gently closing the curtains, Nian Yichen sat down on the sofa beside the bed, staring quietly at her sleeping face.

As time passed, the sleeping Xia Mo finally seemed to have had enough sleep.

Frowning slightly, the slender eyelashes blinked several times before finally opening the eyelids.The first thing that catches the eye is Nian Yichen's handsome face, the smiling eyes seem to have a fiery temperature, which makes her face burn instantly.

"I thought Sleeping Beauty wouldn't wake up until the prince's kiss..." Xia Mo blushed even more as she teased with a smile.

When did he come in?How long have you been here?Why didn't she notice?
Several questions quickly popped up in her mind, but she didn't notice that Nian Yichen had already sat beside her, only less than ten centimeters away from her.

"Sleeping Beauty, it's time for us to go!"

Imprinting a kiss on her forehead with lightning speed, Nian Yichen reached out and took her hand.Xia Mo didn't even have time to come back to her senses, she just felt her arm was pulled hard, and then fell into a warm embrace.

"Nian, Nian Yichen, what do you want to do?!"

"You should dress casually for family dinners, um...just wear a bright yellow dress." Putting Xia Mo on the sofa in the dressing room, Nian Yichen opened the closet and said to himself.

"..."

Xia Mo was speechless.

"As for inner beauty, go with apricot!"

Seeing that Nian Yichen took out a lace seamless underwear from another closet, Xia Mo completely froze in place.

This man, without changing his face, matched her clothes from inside to outside, and even dangled in the air with a woman's...underwear?

The familiar behavior seems to have been done countless times, he... must have a problem!

Thinking of the tacit cooperation between him and Zhong Lin, Xia Mo strengthened his mind.

It's a pity that such a good man turned out to be a big glass!If her admirers knew about it, I don't know how sad it would be!
Thinking of this, Xia Mo's chest felt tight suddenly, some unknown emotion made her feel inexplicably irritable.

"It's a hard year to worry about! I'm going to change clothes, please avoid it!" Snatching the shirt from his hand, Xia Mo said angrily.

Nian Yichen couldn't understand where her anger came from, he raised his eyebrows, then turned and retreated.

……

Summer house.

Because of the relationship between Nian Yichen and Xia Mo, Xia Zhennian asked the kitchen to prepare a big meal, many of which were Xia Mo's favorite dishes on weekdays.

"Momo, your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, come, eat more... Look, it's only been a few days, and you've lost weight again..."

During the dinner, Xia Zhennian kept adding vegetables to Xia Mo's bowl, and kept nagging in his mouth.The full paternal love is very clear and obvious in such details.

"Dad, I want to eat diced chicken!" Xia Xinyan suddenly said, interrupting her father's words, and the appearance of pouting her mouth was obviously expressing her dissatisfaction.

After the wedding, she was exhausted and paralyzed, and she really didn't want to come back.However, as soon as he heard that Xia Mo was going home for dinner at night, he pestered Chi Yuanchen back.

"I'm going to be a mother, and I'm still jealous with my sister..."

Chen Linfen, who was sitting beside her, glanced at her husband's slightly changed expression, smiled helplessly, and added several pieces of chicken from the plate in front of her to her bowl.

However, Xia Xinyan, who was dissatisfied with being ignored, didn't care about these things, and said relentlessly, "I want dad to clip me..."

"Xinyan..."

"Dad, you can't be so partial, I'm also your daughter, why do you only care about what she likes to eat, and don't ask me what I want to eat!"

"Nonsense!" Xia Zhennian's face suddenly darkened, and his thick voice was full of anger.

It's okay for her to be willful in normal times, but now she's married, instead of restraining herself in the slightest, she's getting more and more excessive.He hadn't even settled the score with her about the nonsense at the wedding, but she turned around and questioned him as a father.

"Where am I messing around..."

"Xia Xinyan!"

Seeing that she was about to get angry again, Xia Zhennian's temper also came up, "Momo is a younger sister, an older sister should take care of her!"

Her father's words completely angered Xia Xinyan, she glanced at Xia Mo who was sitting opposite her, and couldn't control the raging anger in her chest.

"What little sister! She has nothing to do with our Xia family at all. She is just using the Xia family's surname to cheat food, drink and property in our house..."

'Snapped'!
The bowls and chopsticks in his hands were placed heavily on the table, Xia Zhennian's face had turned ashen, and there was obvious anger flashing in his eyes looking at his daughter.

"Momo is your younger sister! It's been my whole life!"

"I don't have such a sister!"

"Old Zhang, Missy is not feeling well, take her down to rest!" Ignoring Xia Xinyan's roar, Xia Zhennian gave orders to the housekeeper, his thick voice full of majesty.

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere at the table became awkward.

The housekeeper, who knew Xia Xinyan's temper well, stood aside, unable to advance or retreat.

"Hmph! Being at the same table with this kind of person really affects your appetite!" Even though she was driven away by her father, Xia Xinyan still maintained that superior posture.

"Yi Chen, I made you laugh!"

"Father-in-law said that seriously, we are already a family..." Nian Yichen smiled lightly, and there was not much emotion in that smile.

The dinner was still going on, but the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed as before. Apart from the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding, no one spoke.

……

Coming out of Xia Zhai, Xia Mo sat on the co-pilot's seat, looking out the window absently, his whole body was shrouded in low air pressure.

Along the way, both of them were just silent.The car parked in the garage, and there was no intention of getting out of the car.

"Momo..." After a long silence, Nian Yichen spoke out first.

"Xia Xinyan is right. I have nothing to do with the Xia family. I am just an orphan adopted by my father... My biological parents died in a car accident when I was three years old..."

Her memory of what happened at that time is quite hazy.The only thing stored in my mind is the sharp cry and a large patch of red...

"Mom and Dad have no other relatives, I was sent to an orphanage, half a year later, I was adopted by my father..."

Perhaps it was because of her older age. She remembered the situation of that day quite clearly.

At dusk in summer, Xia Zhennian held a pink Barbie doll and squatted in front of her, "Come with me. From now on, you will have a father and a mother again. You will also have a sister who loves you..."

Because of that sentence, Xia Mo walked into Xia's house and started a new life.

It's just that everything is not as beautiful as I imagined.Dad really loves her, but the relationship between her and her sister is not good.

She always thought that the reason why her 'sister' was hostile to her was because she took away half of the 'love' that should belong to her.In the bottom of her heart, there has always been gratitude and indebtedness.Therefore, when Xia Xinyan made things difficult for her, she just endured silently.

Her patience seems to have really paid off.And she actually thought that their relationship had improved.

It wasn't until the wedding day that she suddenly realized that... everything has never changed!
