Chapter 1110: Chapter 355: Committing Atrocities Under the Influence of Alcohol, Little Swindler_3

This threat was utterly useless against a drunkard, Xiao Ruiyuan’s expression didn’t even change as he lunged at Mo Yan again, mumbling, "I’ll strip you naked and see how you hide your wounds, you little trickster, you’re deceiving me again."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears. This guy was pulling at her clothes just for this reason? If he didn’t believe her earlier explanation, why didn’t he ask sooner? It made her think he wanted to take advantage of his drunkenness to do something else. Humph, he really has a small temper, looking for a "reckoning" with her even when drunk.

Knowing this man was used to being overbearing and now even more so in his drunken state, not showing him the wound would likely lead to trouble. Left without a choice, Mo Yan had to say to Xiao Ruiyuan, who was reaching out to pull at her clothes again, "Stop pulling, I’ll take it off myself."

With that, she pushed him away, unbuttoned her leather coat, and rolled up the sleeves of her cotton-padded jacket to reveal the white cloth bandages around her wrist.

Xiao Ruiyuan watched intently, his eyes widening a fraction when Mo Yan revealed her wrist, then stepped forward, holding her hand carefully as he gently untied the knot with a pull.

Seeing several red, swollen bite marks clearly imprinted on her delicate wrist, Xiao Ruiyuan’s eyes churned with shock, which quickly subdued as he softly asked Mo Yan, "Does it hurt?"

Mo Yan’s heart softened, and she shook her head, "It doesn’t hurt, I’ve applied medicine already, it will heal in a few days, don’t worry about it."

Xiao Ruiyuan, however, wasn’t willing to let it go, staring intently at the four bite marks as if looking at an enemy, "Who bit you?"

Uh—She really did not want to answer this question. Even though revealing the truth wouldn’t result in him harming that child, her instincts told her that if she disclosed the actual situation, he would throw the child out to fend for itself.

Xiao Ruiyuan did not give Mo Yan a chance to find an excuse, pressing her, "Are you thinking of another way to deceive me? You’ve already deceived me once just now. You promised you wouldn’t deceive me again, you little trickster."

Towards the end, disappointment mixed with sadness appeared on Xiao Ruiyuan’s handsome face, clearly unable to accept being deceived again.

Having been called a little trickster over and over again, Mo Yan felt embarrassed, but her gaze was suspicious as she looked at Xiao Ruiyuan: Shouldn’t the words of a drunk be incoherent? Could it be that this man is exceptionally gifted so that even when drunk his memory remains sharp, and his thinking clear?

Xiao Ruiyuan seemed unaware of Mo Yan’s turmoil, as he slightly lowered his head and his cool lips kissed the wound on Mo Yan’s wrist, tasting the coolness of the medicine.

Mo Yan felt a ticklish sensation and tried to pull her hand back, but it was tightly gripped by him, unable to break free.

Xiao Ruiyuan lifted his head, an obvious displeasure on his face, "Yanyan, are you really not going to tell me?"

Uh, I’ll tell you, I’ll just tell you," Mo Yan agreed helplessly, uncomfortable with being held like this.

After all, the man was drunk; once he sobered up, he might forget all about what she had told him. Telling him now wouldn’t matter, and when he came to his senses, she could conveniently ask him to check that textile mill. The weather was too cold, the birds were mostly nestled in their nests unwilling to move, and she didn’t want to force them, or else she wouldn’t need his help.

After hearing the full story, Xiao Ruiyuan looked surprisingly calm, not at all as angry as Mo Yan had expected.

As if seeing through Mo Yan’s thoughts, Xiao Ruiyuan said unhappily, "Do I really seem like the kind of person who can’t distinguish right from wrong in your eyes?"

Mo Yan hurriedly shook her head, placatingly saying, "Not at all, you’re the most gentlemanly man I’ve ever met."

Xiao Ruiyuan seemed very satisfied, the corners of his usually stern lips curving into a smile, unexpectedly revealing a bit of charm that easily captivated someone with a slight obsession for good looks.

Mo Yan was so engrossed in the beauty before her that she couldn’t extricate herself from it, even taking pride in the fact that such a handsome man was hers. However, when he didn’t smile, all was well, but his smile made her feel unworthy of him, which was a truly sad reality.

Xiao Ruiyuan, apparently oblivious, led Mo Yan by the shoulders toward the bed.

In Mo Yan’s eyes, going to bed spelled trouble, and this time the man was drunk again, so she voiced her refusal righteously, "I still have things to do, you sleep by yourself!"

Xiao Ruiyuan’s expression changed instantly, the smile on his lips disappeared, turning back to his rigid demeanor, and even his voice was cold and hard, "You just lied to me." The underlying message was, you have to sleep with me, it’s compensation.

Mo Yan’s fair face turned bright red in an instant.

Facing Xiao Ruiyuan’s urging gaze, Mo Yan wanted to struggle once more, "But, but it’s daytime, and everyone knows I brought you back to your room, if I leave late, they’ll probably think too much."

"They won’t!" Xiao Ruiyuan asserted, "They’ve already gone back to the city." Only a fool would leave a bunch of people here to divert the attention of his father-in-law’s family.

Mo Yan, unaware of someone’s ulterior motives, felt reassured by his words and allowed herself to be taken to bed, completely forgetting her siblings in the corner.

The two lay side by side on the bed, and unexpectedly, nothing indescribable happened. Mo Yan sneakily glanced at Xiao Ruiyuan, meeting his eyes precisely, and saw a small flame flickering within, which scared her into quickly closing her eyes and silently turning to face the other side.

A deep chuckle sounded in her ear, and Mo Yan felt embarrassed and annoyed, turning her hand to fiercely twist the man’s waist, only to find it was all hard muscle and she couldn’t get a grip.

Just as she was reluctantly thinking about trying another spot, the man scooped her into his arms, his lips brushing the edge of her ear, his breath warm and suggestive, "Yanyan, are you trying to seduce me?"

Mo Yan’s face turned beet red, and she angrily jabbed her elbow toward the person behind her, "That’s for talking nonsense!"

"Hmm—Yanyan, are you trying to murder your husband?"

The distance was too close, and Xiao Ruiyuan was unprepared, getting hit squarely in the chest. It hurt only for a moment, but it was really painful.

"Hmph, this is what you get for spouting nonsense!" Mo Yan knew the blow wasn’t serious, but she threatened fiercely nonetheless.

"You..."

Xiao Ruiyuan sighed helplessly, his embrace around Mo Yan not loosening, his tone full of indulgence. He had no romantic designs, just a playful mood under the influence of alcohol, not expecting to have scared her.

Snuggled in the warm crook of the man’s arm and surrounded by a strong masculine scent, Mo Yan felt a tremendous sense of security. The two were silent, listening to each other’s slow breathing, slowly becoming sleepy, and thus they fell into sweet slumber, nestled closely together...
