?Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Mo Chen, You’re Such a Bastard!   Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Mo Chen, You’re Such a Bastard!                                   Qiao Ruoxin’s response was dismissive, “I don’t know, I forgot.”


    “I haven’t seen someone as idiotic as you in many years,” the man said seriously and sternly.


    ???


    What the hell?


    She had thought that this bastard cared about her, but then he came out with such a remark!


    “You’re calling me an idiot?”


    There was ayer of disdain on Mo Chen’s handsome features as he looked up at her surprised expression, “Isn’t that the case? Nowadays, very few people indulge in self-harm.”


    “…”


    This infuriating tone! That irritating expression!


    Qiao Ruoxin shoved off his hand and snapped, “Mo Chen, you are truly an asshole!”


    Having said that, she turned and walked towards the elevator without looking back.


    The man’s lips curved up, and he followed her at a leisurely pace; after all, his long legs made it easy to keep up with her.


    Qiao Ruoxin wore high heels and couldn’t walk fast; in the next second, she was pressed against the wall by a powerful male force.


    “Ah… Mmm!”


    Just as she was about to curse, Mo Chen bent down and forced her into a kiss, plundering her sweetness and leaving her powerless to resist.


    It might have been five minutes, or seven minutes…


    Qiao Ruoxin leaned against the cold wall, her face flushed and breathing heavily, staring fixedly at the man before her.


    The man’s long fingers wiped away the smeared lipstick from her lips, his voice pampering her, “Be good, go and touch up your makeup. Your lipstick is smeared.”


    Although still angry, she found herself inexplicably starting tough, and couldn’t stop.


    Mo Chen raised an eyebrow, “Is it funny?”


    “The lipstick has smeared, probably all on your mouth now.” She looked at Mo Chen’s sensual lips, now stained with lipstick, and found it… quite charming.


    Mo Chen touched his lips and a smile appeared on them, “Doesn’t matter, I’ll keep it.”


    “…”


    She was speechless, always feeling that Mo Chen had the potential to be a pervert.


    …


    When the two of them returned to the dinner party, the atmosphere was harmonious as if nothing had happened.


    Simon, who was lifting his ss to drink, noticed the trace of lipstick on Mo Chen’s lips.


    Simon’s grip on his winess tightened, and even a fool could understand what had transpired between the two.


    Without any argument, they had even shared a hot kiss?


    Simon couldn’t help but sneer, “Xinxin, you are impressive, clearing things up so quickly? I thought you would just start fighting right here.”


    “That would be ying right into your hands, don’t you wish!” Qiao Ruoxin said indifferently.


    This time Mo Chen was refreshed and leaned back, picking up his ss of red wine and swirled it slightly, “Mr. Lawrence, it’s time for you to go back. You don’t belong here, you seem very out of ce.”


    Simon, “Mr. Mo, the process doesn’t matter; what matters is who gets thestugh.”


    Mo Chen finished his red wine in one gulp and lifted his gaze to the man across from him, slowly smiling, “Thestugh will be mine.”


    “Is that so…”


    …


    After the dinner party, she and Mo Chen returned to Shuian Huating.


    Mo Chen told her to go back to the bedroom to shower and sleep, while he needed to deal with some matters in the study.


    She brewed a cup of sobering tea, nning to bring it to the study, but as she approached the study door, she heard a man’s irate voiceing from within.


    “What? Lin Xi is missing? Worthless! Go find her! She’s still useful to me!”


    Qiao Ruoxin widened her eyes in surprise.


    Lin Xi is missing?


    Why would a perfectly fine person just disappear? Could she have been hidden away by someone as well?


    She stood outside the study for a while but eventually decided not to bring in the sobering tea and instead carried it back to the bedroom.


    An hourter.


    Mo Chen returned to the bedroom and saw that Little Ghost had already fallen asleep on the bed.


    He also immediately noticed the cup of sobering tea ced beside, so he picked it up and drank it in one gulp, then walked into the bathroom.


    After about ten minutes, he came back to the bed with a coolness emanating from him, gently held Qiao Ruoxin in his arms, and entered deep sleep.


    They slept dreamlessly until the bright morning light.


    …


    The next day.


    When Qiao Ruoxin opened her eyes, it was already after ten in the morning, and Mo Chen had long since disappeared from her side.


    Fortunately, she had the day off with no work, so she indulged in sleeping in.


    After she got up, washed up, changed clothes, and had lunch, she prepared to visit Lan Ke, who she hadn’t had time to care for these past few days due to her pregnancy.


    By the time Qiao Ruoxin arrived at Shuian Huating, it was already past two in the afternoon.


    The door was opened by Lan Ke, dressed in loose clothing, looking like she had just woken up.


    “Ruoxin baby, your sister here was still sleeping, and you suddenlye over.”


    Lan Ke, her face full of sleepiness, turned around and walked back.


    Qiao Ruoxin helplessly closed the door and followed Lan Ke to sit down on the living room sofa.


    “You haven’t been sleeping from morning till now, have you?”


    Lan Ke poured a ss of water for her, “I’m sleepy,tely I can’t get enough sleep, and I’m always vomiting,pletelycking energy.”


    Seeing Lan Ke so drowsy, Qiao Ruoxin couldn’t help but exim, “Is pregnancy really that hard?”


    “It depends on the person, my constitution is quite special.”


    Qiao Ruoxin picked up the ss of water and took a few sips, smiling, “I see that Xiaobai is very obedient recently, it’s almost like he’s your 24-hour nanny.”


    “What about you? How are the wedding preparations going?”


    “The wedding dress is being made, it’s super beautiful!” Speaking of the wedding dress, her face lit up with irrepressible joy.


    Lan Keughed, “Look at that proud little face of yours. I will have to see how beautiful the wedding dress Mo Chen had custom-made for you is.”


    “I wanted to ask you to be the bridesmaid…” Seeing Lan Ke’s belly, she had to give up that thought.


    “Ruoxin, will your mothere to your wedding?”


    At this, Qiao Ruoxin’s smile gradually faded, “She probably won’te, she just wants to keep me in the United States, by her side.”


    Lan Ke leaned in and hugged her shoulders, “It doesn’t matter, you still have us.”


    “Right, I have you guys, and then there’s their super luxurious groomsmen group.”


    Lan Ke sighed and patted her head, “Ruoxin baby, you must be happy.”


    “I will.”


    She stayed at Lan Ke’s house for two hours before leaving.


    As she was entering the elevator, she happened to see two tall men walking out, wearing sunsses, looking rather strange.


    But she didn’t think much of it and pressed the elevator button to go down.


    …


    That evening.


    While Qiao Ruoxin and Mo Chen were having dinner, they received a call from Bai Junyan, saying Lan Ke had been taken away by the Lan Family.


    After hanging up the phone, Mo Chen nced at her, “You eat; I’m going to the Lan Family.”


    “I’ming with you! They must be nning to abort the child! We can’t dy the child’s life!”


    “Mm.”


    So, the man drove her directly to the Lan Family.


    Outside the Lan Family’s house, they coincidentally met up with Bai Junyan, whose face was extremely unsightly at this point.


    “Mo Chen, does the Lan Family have a death wish? If they dare to touch my child today, I will level the Lan Family!” Bai Junyan was seething with rage.


    Mo Chen, “I guess they wouldn’t dare, they’re probably trying to lure you over to negotiate.”
