The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 1307 - 667: Mo Han & Wanwan Arc – He Likes Ning Wan

Ning Wan’s eyes widened instantly, her body becoming even more rigid, as if she couldn’t believe that this man would not only share a bed with her but also sleep right beside her.

She could clearly feel Xi Mohan’s hand already wrapping around her waist...

Yet the intense smell of alcohol at her nose couldn’t help but make Ning Wan furrow her brows.

How much did this man drink?

In fact, Xi Mohan’s consciousness was already beginning to blur; he only felt dizzy and wanted to lie down. If he were sober, he probably wouldn’t be lying in the same bed with Ning Wan.

The effect of the alcohol made him do things he wouldn’t usually do when he’s sober.

Ning Wan dared not move, only able to stay rigid in Xi Mohan’s embrace, but she didn’t dare to be too tense, trying hard to relax herself to avoid being discovered by Xi Mohan that she was not asleep and was just pretending.

The man she had always loved holding her waist, even though the breath between them was full of the alcohol smell she disliked, her heartbeat involuntarily sped up.

This was what she had always dreamed of.

Unknowingly, Ning Wan gradually fell asleep as did Xi Mohan, who had drunk a lot.

...

The next morning, Xi Mohan woke up earlier than Ning Wan, with the aftermath of the hangover making him feel a severe headache as soon as he awoke, his brows furrowing involuntarily with discomfort.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to rub his brows, before he could open his eyes, he suddenly felt an unusual sensation in his arms. His eyes instantly opened wide, and he found himself facing a sleeping little face, with his hands around a slender waist.

Ning Wan was almost curled up in Xi Mohan’s arms, a slight furrow on her sleeping face indicating a bit of discomfort, but she showed no signs of waking.

The man dared not move at all, seemingly unable to believe that Ning Wan was asleep in his arms, straining to recall the previous night’s memory, which only stopped at him returning to the villa, unable to remember how he ended up sharing a bed with Ning Wan.

After closing his eyes and opening them again, his face showed an unexpectedly gentle expression, unlike his usually cold, emotionless demeanor, especially the gaze directed at Ning Wan contained some unknown emotions.

Who would have thought that deep down he liked this little girl, but reality forced him to show a disgusted and unlikable demeanor towards Ning Wan? He always carefully hid his feelings for her, yet didn’t expect to drunkenly climb into her bed.

Yet, seeing that Ning Wan hadn’t woken up, it was unclear whether she had awakened during the night when he climbed onto her bed.

Carefully withdrawing his hand from her waist, Xi Mohan’s gaze never left Ning Wan’s face, as if afraid she’d wake up, but fortunately, after he withdrew his hand, she remained asleep.

After withdrawing his hand, Xi Mohan said nothing, lifted the covers, and got out of bed. After lifting the covers to look at his clothes, they were still the suit he wore yesterday, slightly rumpled from a night’s sleep, and moreover, they carried a faint unpleasant alcohol smell.

The man’s face showed a look of disgust, getting off the bed without a second thought. After turning and helping cover Ning Wan properly, he directly walked out of the room.

The housekeeper was cleaning the corridor when suddenly she heard the door of the guest room open. Turning her head, she was shocked to see it was Mr. Xi emerging, startling her, and she quickly bowed to greet, "Good morning, sir."

Xi Mohan’s face was foul, remaining grim even hearing the housekeeper’s greeting, but still responded with a slight nod, then instructed the housekeeper, "When Ning Wan wakes up, don’t tell her I came out of her room."

The housekeeper was puzzled why the gentleman would emerge from Second Lady Ning’s guest room early in the morning; hearing this, she promptly responded, "Okay sir, I understand. Would you like the chef to prepare breakfast for you now?"

Xi Mohan paused his steps, "What time is it now?"

The housekeeper replied, "It’s just six-thirty now."

Xi Mohan nodded, "No need to prepare it just yet, prepare breakfast at eight, and inform me when Ning Wan wakes up."

"Yes, sir."

After finishing, Xi Mohan headed towards his bedroom, and upon entering, the first thing he did was retrieve a set of clothes from the wardrobe and make his way to the bathroom to take a shower and freshen up.

In life, he’s obsessed with cleanliness, but last night he hadn’t showered before sleeping like this, causing him to feel as if he emanated foulness in the morning, nearly making him throw up.

...

When Ning Wan woke up, it was already an hour and a half after Xi Mohan left the room. She lay there feeling dazed as she watched the ceiling, not immediately recovering from her sleepy haze. When she somewhat regained her thoughts, she suddenly sat up sharply in bed, looking around the room.

But she didn’t see any sign of Xi Mohan...

Furthermore, there was no alcohol smell in the room; she looked at the side of the bed, noticing it was perfectly normal, not like someone had slept there, which inevitably made Ning Wan furrow her brows.

Was last night an illusion, or perhaps just a dream?

Why did she remember that Xi Mohan not only came into her room last night but also lifted her covers and slept with her, more importantly, he held her while sleeping...

Furrowing her brows again, she found herself confused about whether it was real or just an illusion.

Clutching the covers while sitting on the bed, Ning Wan stared blankly ahead, her gaze unfocused and unsure what she was looking at, just striving to recall whether Xi Mohan really entered her room and held her while sleeping last night, yet the more she thought about it, the more uncertain she became.

What Ning Wan didn’t know was that after Xi Mohan freshened up, he returned to the room and replaced the quilt that he and Ning Wan had covered the night before, so inside the quilt, there was no unpleasant alcohol scent.
