Chapter 1041: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [43]

The night was silent and pitch-dark, and in such conditions, one’s other senses would suddenly become more acute.

Xiao Yebai clearly smelled a fragrant scent, that usual aroma from Mo Weiyi, sweet and alluring; whenever she got close, it would invade his nostrils.

And at this moment, within that scent, there was a mix of other smells, like red wine, and like…

A soft, cold hand pressed against his chest.

Xiao Yebai’s entire body tensed instantly, and his mind regained its clarity in a moment.

He reached out and forcefully brushed the hand away.

But very quickly, Mo Weiyi wrapped around him again.

And this time with both hands, hugging his waist tightly, her body pressing close to his.

Unlike her cool fingers, her body was very warm, and with her voice, sweet and melodious, she called out for him, “Xiaobai, Xiaobai, why are you pushing me away…”

Xiao Yebai gripped her wrists.

His grip was very strong.

Mo Weiyi soon began to cry out in pain, “Ouch! Xiaobai, you’re hurting me… Xiaobai, it really hurts, boo hoo…”

Xiao Yebai let her cry for a few moments, then flung her wrist away, his voice deep, “Get off.”

Mo Weiyi, rubbing her wrist, sniffled weakly but didn’t comply as he wished, “I won’t!”

In the darkness, Xiao Yebai frowned, puzzled.

He never expected Mo Weiyi to be so brazen, daring to come to his room and even climb into his bed…

He always knew she wasn’t the well-behaved and quiet little princess of the Mo Family as the elders described.

Because from the first day he met her, the Mo Weiyi he saw always took advantage of her status as the little princess of the Mo Family, willful, arrogant, and bold; she openly expressed her love for him with words and gestures, and even as a minor, dared to run to M Country to find him…

But this time, she undoubtedly set a new low.

Xiao Yebai didn’t speak again; he just got up from the bed, and at the same time reached out to turn on the bedside lamp.

With a click, the bedroom was suddenly flooded with light.

Mo Weiyi, dazzled by the harsh white light, cried out and covered her eyes with her hands.

And Xiao Yebai saw her appearance clearly.

Eighteen-year-old Mo Weiyi, wearing the red dress from dinner that night; apart from the makeup and the styled curly hair. Honestly, seeing her in the evening, Xiao Yebai didn’t feel much of anything.

After all, it was still her typical princess style.

She had always loved wearing dresses of various colors since she was young.

Especially the loud and bright reds.

And at this moment…

Possibly due to sitting on the bed, she was in a kneeling position, hands still covering her eyes…

Her fluffy curly hair was slightly disheveled over her shoulders, the square neckline of the red dress a bit askew, revealing a large swath of snowy skin at her shoulder, strikingly conspicuous against the red backdrop.

Downward…

In just a second, Xiao Yebai quickly averted his gaze.

When Mo Weiyi pressed against him just now, through the thin layer of fabric, he had already felt…

His Adam’s apple moved up and down, a nameless heat surged, making his voice distinctly hoarse and low, “If you don’t go out, I’ll call for someone.”

He looked at the bookshelf beside him, his profile sleek yet cold.

Mo Weiyi pouted, let go of her fingers, and looked down at herself.

The hem of her skirt was chaotically folded on her legs because she was kneeling, the man’s room decor was uniformly straight male style, and even the beddings were in a very deep shade of blue. At this moment, the wrinkled bed linen was being knelt upon by her pale, delicate legs…

It was clearly a very enticing scene.

And she had intentionally taken off her clothes inside…

If only she had known, she would have cut the hem a bit shorter earlier…

She lifted her head, looking at the young handsome man standing steadfastly by the bed.

Her aggrieved red lips pursed and unpursed, she continued, “I won’t! If you can, just call! Might as well call Grandpa over too!”

The room fell into a deathly silence.

Until Xiao Yebai spoke again, “You drank too much.”

His voice had returned to normal, calm, without any ripples.

So what?

Mo Weiyi curved her lips, as if she hadn’t understood the meaning behind his words, “Right, I did drink a bit too much, but I’m not drunk, otherwise how could I have found your room, right?”

Compared to her obviously coquettish and ingratiating words, Xiao Yebai kept his profile cold, his brows tightly furrowed.

Mo Weiyi chuckled twice, “Xiaobai, why are you frowning? Are you still mad at me?”

Xiao Yebai didn’t speak.

“All right then,” Mo Weiyi laughed to herself, deliberately softening her voice. Her inherently delicate and soft voice seemed especially tender and cloying in the still of the night, “Actually… let me tell you the truth, I didn’t plan to marry Chu Xiuhuang, all those things I said were to deceive you all.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yebai finally had a reaction.

Although it was just a twitch of his eyelids.

Mo Weiyi looked at him with a smile, her tone sweet, just like when she announced the wedding news at dinner, “I did it on purpose! Who made you reject me so heartlessly that day, knowing full well how much I like you. How could I possibly marry Chu Xiuhuang? From the first day I met you, I have only liked you, and all other men are strangers in my eyes…”

“Do you know, I was so happy when I saw my scores that day, and I couldn’t wait for you to come home to tell you the good news. Who knew you’d be so indifferent, rejecting me without a second word. Couldn’t I be upset? I was unhappy, so I deliberately wanted to make you angry…”

“It’s my fault, okay? I made up those things because I really like you too much. I wanted to see if you really didn’t care about me at all, to see if you would remain indifferent as always if I married another man… Now I know, actually, you do have a place for me in your heart. You were clearly very angry at dinner, weren’t you? I could see you were holding it in…”

“Don’t worry, I’ll tell Grandpa and Dad tomorrow morning that I was just joking, that I don’t plan to marry Chu Xiuhuang. Even if I do get married, it will only be to you, for in this lifetime, the only man I’ll marry is you.”

Facing this confession that he had heard countless times before, Xiao Yebai listened quietly, remaining in his original posture, his expression indifferent. The words he spoke carried his usual coldness that kept others at a great distance, “I’ve said before, I will not marry you. Who you marry is none of my business.”

“Is it really none of your business?” Mo Weiyi tilted her head, looking at him with pitiful eyes, “Then what if… what if I really decide to marry Chu Xiuhuang? After all, Grandpa was really happy when I announced it tonight. With his support, I think Chu Xiuhuang will treat me very well after marriage, and thinking about it, that doesn’t seem too bad.”

Xiao Yebai narrowed his eyes.

Under the short, tousled, damp black hair, his peach blossom eyes were beautiful yet as cold as a chill wind, the corners of his thin lips drawing a mocking arc.

“It’s none of my business,” he repeated.

Mo Weiyi “tsked” and suddenly crawled forward on his knees for two steps.

Xiao Yebai’s gaze shifted slightly once again.

Without looking, the scene from a moment ago resurfaced in his mind.

The girl, dressed only in a thin red dress, her fair thin legs exposed, sat on his bed in a kneeling position, so boldly positioned on the bed where he slept every night…

A faintly sweet and soft fragrance wafted over.

Before he was aware, Mo Weiyi had crawled from the center of the bed to the edge, propped herself up with the mattress, straightening her body, her face coming closer.

Those beautiful, clear-cut cat eyes stared straight at him.

Just like that, staring into his eyes.

And stared for quite a while…

Xiao Yebai turned his head away.

“You’re lying!” Mo Weiyi’s voice suddenly rang out.

Xiao Yebai avoided the breath she exhaled on his face and remained silent.

Perhaps…

He simply couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Mo Weiyi didn’t care anymore, she crawled forward once again.

The two were so close that she could smell the faint scent of his shower gel.

And that unique masculine smell, cool and commanding, just inundated all her senses.

And she believed, Xiao Yebai could surely smell her fragrance at this moment…

She had sprayed some perfume in her room just a while ago.

Fearing that someone’s nose was too sensitive, she didn’t dare to spray too much.

But the seller had said, a little spray was enough, as long as the atmosphere was right, it could easily arouse a man’s libido, especially with a bit of stimulation, making it easier for him to have some amorous fantasies…

Mo Weiyi opened her little mouth, gently biting her lower lip with her teeth.

After biting several times, there was a slightly painful and swollen sensation…

She swiftly extended her hand, gripping the man’s neck precisely and tightly.

Her soft body clung inseparably to his, feeling his stiffness and burning heat.

Her face pressed tightly against his neck…

The man’s breathing was right by her ear, along with the beating of her heart, thumping and pounding, washing over her like the tides in the night.

Apart from the stolen kiss when he was drunk last time, this was her first time being so intimate with him…

Even if Mo Weiyi had gathered all her courage and prepared herself mentally, her cheeks instantly flushed a deep red, and her fingers couldn’t help but tremble.

But to ensure things went smoothly, she still took the initiative to say, “To prove that everything I said just now is true, I can do with you…”

Before she could finish, a piercing pain shot through her wrist again.

Xiao Yebai’s expression was full of impatience.

Perhaps…

He thought Mo Weiyi had gone crazy.

When Mo Weiyi was once again thrown onto the bed by him, the man’s cold voice rang out, “If you don’t want to leave, the room is yours.”

After saying that, he lifted his foot to walk outside.

Mo Weiyi’s eyes widened.

Then she quickly jumped off the bed and, with a strength she didn’t know she had, dashed over and hugged him from behind, shamelessly yelling, “I said I want to do it with you so you’ll believe me, I’m even willing to give you my first time, I surely won’t marry anyone else…”

Xiao Yebai tightened his grip on her wrist, “Let go.”

“I won’t! I just won’t! Xiaobai, are you chickening out?” Mo Weiyi pushed off the ground with her feet, and her entire body actually leapt onto him; her rosy lips approached his face, exhaling a fragrant breath, “Aren’t you a man? I’m being so forward and you’re still like this… Are you impotent? Don’t you know how?”

She struggled fiercely against the grip of his fingers, while her legs coiled tightly around him, afraid of falling off…

After all, her outfit didn’t cover much…

Xiao Yebai breathed in nothing but that bewildering fragrance; her words sounded like a challenge to his reason.

He reached out abruptly, grasping her bare, slender ankles.

As he was about to pull her down, his vision suddenly went dark.

Mo Weiyi steeled her heart and brought her face directly to his, lips touching his mouth.

Xiao Yebai was momentarily stunned by the contact; she invaded his space like a little demon, clumsy yet aggressive.

The man’s fingers became rigid due to her inexperienced but bold movements.

A sly smile flickered across the corner of Mo Weiyi’s lips.

She didn’t want to dawdle any longer.

Her entire body entwined tightly around him; her fingers and lips imitated the erotic scenes she’d seen in novels and dramas before…

In those scenes, as long as the woman took initiative, not a single man could resist.

Xiao Yebai might be cold on a daily basis, but he was still a man.

He was in his early twenties, full of vigor and vitality, at an age when it’s hard to control intense desires.

And she had a secret weapon on her side…

Mo Weiyi had made the most comprehensive preparation; she believed Xiao Yebai had her in his heart, so she dared to wager it all on this one attempt.

When Xiao Yebai regained his senses and pushed her face away relentlessly…

“I just want to do it with you! I have to prove… prove what I said wasn’t a lie!” Mo Weiyi shouted in desperation.

The blush on her face deepened, her heart thumped as if it weren’t her own, her fingers clung tightly to his shoulders, her body twisting and entwining, refusing to be dislodged from him, “Xiaobai, you clearly have me in your heart; you like me too, right… How could you possibly not like me? It’s not possible… I think you’re just being deliberately difficult, you’re tsundere, you’re afraid of what others will say, so you’re suppressing your own feelings…”

She breathed against his ear, her naturally delicate voice becoming especially alluring and seductive as she softened it intentionally, “Does the opinion of others really matter so much? I don’t care, after all, you are the man Mo Weiyi likes! I must be with you! After tonight, you will be Mo Weiyi’s man! Don’t worry, Grandpa will definitely agree to us being together; he would give me anything I want…”

Lost in confusion and emotion, she didn’t even realize what she was saying.

Anything she could think of…

She said it all.

As she spoke, she didn’t forget the newly learned, bone-deep ambiguity of their physical teasing, combined with the provocation of her words…

The moment Xiao Yebai’s fingers around her ankle suddenly relaxed, Mo Weiyi moved forward, biting his lips again.

She was resolute, with only one thought in her head:

She was going to sleep with him tonight!

…

The next day, Mo Weiyi was awakened by the brightness in front of her eyes.

She opened her eyes and heard the sound of rushing water.

What met her gaze was not the familiar pink curtains but a stark white ceiling; there was no chandelier turned on, yet the room was bright.

A dark blue blanket covered her, and beneath the covers, she shrank back slightly, letting out a soft call from her throat.

Damn it hurts!

Just like those novels described, the first time felt nothing but painful…

And she didn’t even know how she had fallen asleep last night…

Mo Weiyi turned her face, following the sound of water.

The bathroom door was closed tight, and sounds could be heard from inside; the semi-transparent glass door revealed a tall, indistinct figure.

She lifted her hand, pulling the blanket up a bit.

The flush on her full, fair cheeks hadn’t faded, and the sensations deep in her body lingered stubbornly…

Reflecting on the craziness of last night…

Mo Weiyi’s lips curled into a smile, unable to hold back her laughter.

Ouch…

She’d say, Xiaobai did have her in his heart, and yet he wouldn’t admit it!

Isn’t it proven now?

If he hadn’t loved her to death, how could he have been so fierce last night…

After all, that perfume was just a slight stimulant, not the real aphrodisiac…

A sudden sound of a door opening startled her.

The bathroom door swung open.

Mo Weiyi instantly snapped back to reality.

The man in loungewear stepped out; as he glanced up, his eyes met with the pair on the big bed.

Before Mo Weiyi could speak, Xiao Yebai quickly averted his gaze and approached the wardrobe, pulling it open as if to find clothes. But as he reached out, his motion abruptly halted.

Mo Weiyi blinked, “You…”

Only when she spoke did she realize how hoarse her voice was.

Right…

It was she who initiated, but he turned the tables on her later, and every time he almost took her life with his force…

Plus, since it was her first time, the structure and sensitivity of a woman’s body meant she was doomed to be at a disadvantage…

In any case, she just couldn’t bear it later on and ended up crying and causing a fuss…

Mo Weiyi coughed twice.

Get a grip!

With her raspy voice, she continued, “Do you have to go to work today?”

Xiao Yebai stood sideways in front of the wardrobe as if he hadn’t heard her, no response.

Mo Weiyi asked, “Are you feeling shy?”

She couldn’t resist a laugh, continuing to speak on her own, “No way, after everything we did last night, are you now too shy to change in front of me? Is there a place on your body I haven’t seen, really…”

Finally, Xiao Yebai turned around.

His lips pursed, his eyes and eyebrows cold.

Though still silent.

Mo Weiyi’s heart skipped, yet the smile on her face didn’t diminish, “Alright, I’ll close my eyes, okay?”

Having said that, she really did close her eyes, prattling on, “Hurry up and change, then go out for breakfast. After you go to work, I’ll sneak out while Aunt Zhou isn’t looking, don’t worry. I locked the upstairs door last night, she won’t find out I wasn’t in my room, and if you don’t want to, I will keep this a secret for now.”

Xiao Yebai coldly watched the girl who was entirely cocooned in the blanket.

The room wasn’t lit, but it was summer, and he was an early riser, so he didn’t draw the curtains when sleeping. At the moment, the room was brightly lit, clearly showcasing the messy state of the big bed…

As for the wooden floor, several pieces of clothing were strewn about, including the red dress he had torn to shreds and a man’s black…

He felt a lump in his throat, turning his face away.

After a silence of four or five seconds, he raised his hand, quickly grabbed the neatly ironed shirt and trousers from the wardrobe and changed from head to toe, then snatched a dark blue tie and tied it methodically.

Having done all this, he turned and walked to the doorway without glancing sideways.

“Click!”

The door was opened and then closed; the bedroom returned to quiet.

Mo Weiyi’s half-squinted eyes opened as well.

She looked at the closed door, her eyes roving unfocused as she stared at the ceiling chandelier.

After a while, the sounds from outside seemed to disappear, she threw off the blanket and slowly sat up.

**

Dining room.

Aunt Zhou finished cleaning up the dining table and glanced at the time.

It was half-past eight.

By this time, the princess would usually be getting up.

It’s just that last night, the Little Princess had gotten drunk and, upon waking up, she would surely have a hangover headache…

Aunt Zhou nodded and immediately went into the kitchen to find some honey, preparing to make a hangover-relief tea…

When she heard noises coming from outside, she thought Mo Weiyi had come downstairs and quickly wiped her fingers before stepping out of the kitchen, “Princess… Good heavens!”

Mo Weiyi still had her hand on the doorknob when she heard Aunt Zhou and looked up, smiling crisply at the servant, “Aunt Zhou, has Xiaobai already gone to work?”

“Xiao… Mr. Xiao he… he…” Aunt Zhou stuttered, her eyes on Mo Weiyi and struggling to form complete sentences.

“Shh–” Mo Weiyi raised her hand.

She was wearing an obviously men’s white shirt, very loose and large, enveloping her entire body and only revealing two fair, slender legs underneath, which were covered with conspicuous bruises of purple and red…

Aunt Zhou desperately tried not to look any further.

She was experienced, and with Mo Weiyi in such a… getup, and having brazenly walked out of Xiao Yebai’s room…

It was blatantly clear what had happened!

She just hadn’t expected…

Ever since Mr. Xiao entered the Mo Family, he had been cold to the Little Princess. She had always thought it was just unrequited feelings from the Little Princess, never imagining…

“Aunt Zhou.” Mo Weiyi’s face remained cheerfully smiling, “My body feels so sore, I want to go back to my room for a bath. Please tidy up this room for me.”

Aunt Zhou snapped back to reality, “Of course, Princess…”

She hastened forward, wanting to enter the room to clean up…

“Oh, by the way.” Mo Weiyi called out to her, “The clothes on the floor can be thrown away. Xiaobai ripped them all last night.”

Aunt Zhou: “…okay.”

Having said that, Mo Weiyi then headed upstairs.

Leaving the servant in disarray at the door…

**

Mo Weiyi returned upstairs and immediately soaked in the bath.

She washed away all the stickiness and discomfort, finally feeling more relaxed.

She lay in the warm stream of water, eyes closed, cheeks flushed, and a smile on her lips…

Until her cellphone rang.

Mo Weiyi wrapped in a bathrobe, limped to answer the call, “Hello…”

Her voice was languid and weak, with an evident tiredness that made the person on the other end of the line take a good while to ask, “Weiyi, haven’t you gotten up yet?”

“I’m up,” Mo Weiyi replied lazily, “I’m taking a bath.”

“Oh,” Su Wanwan said, nonplussed, “Judging by your voice, I thought you had turned to thievery last night…”

“That’s right.” Mo Weiyi giggled, “I did turn to thievery last night.”

Su Wanwan: “What do you mean?”

“I mean that literally,” Mo Weiyi said, then burst into laughter, “Wanwan, last night I slept with Xiaobai.”

Su Wanwan: “???!!!”

**

Downstairs, Aunt Zhou had finished tidying up Xiao Yebai’s room, and it had been half an hour.

Coming out of the laundry room, she heard movement at the entrance.

The old butler pushed Mr. Mo senior in from outside.

Possibly feeling guilty, Aunt Zhou’s face changed, “Mr. Mo senior, the princess, she…”

Mr. Mo senior seemed to be in a good mood, “How’s Yiyi? Hasn’t she gotten up yet?”

Aunt Zhou became even more flustered, “The princess, she… Yes, Mr. Mo senior, what would you like for breakfast? I’ll go make it right away…”

“No need,” Mr. Mo senior waved his hand, “Look at my memory, Yiyi got drunk last night and surely hasn’t waken up yet.”

The butler grinned, “Indeed, the Little Princess drank quite a bit last night.”

Mr. Mo senior nodded, “Then let’s not wake her up yet, let her sleep some more.”

Aunt Zhou nodded.

“Shi Kang.” Mr. Mo senior called out, “Call the Chu Family.”

The butler, “Okay.”

He immediately dialed the number from the living room’s landline and quickly passed over the phone.

Mr. Mo senior took the phone with a smile plastered on his face, “Hello, old Chu, I want to ask you, how are you planning to handle the kids’ matter?”

“…”

“Don’t play dumb with me! Yiyi has already told me everything! What, hasn’t your grandson come clean to you yet?”

“…”

“Hahaha looks like you really do not know,” Mr. Mo senior’s expression was triumphant, “My granddaughter is reliable. She told me everything last night. She accepted your grandson’s proposal, and our families are about to be related…”

The old master’s voice was loud and clear, indicating genuine happiness.

The old butler stood by, also smiling.

Only Aunt Zhou, listening to the call, had an increasingly strange expression…

Mr. Mo senior finished the call after a few words.

It was his granddaughter getting married, and he decided to take care of everything himself, the Chu Family had no choice but to agree!
