Chapter 184 - Hickey

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Mo Han was furious, he disliked that Third Young Master was already of the past and yet he was still secretly investigating the feelings between Xia Qingyi and him. “You don’t have to concern yourself with the matters between me and her. She’s with me now, I’ll treat her well. This is what I should do, you don’t have to weigh in on this.”

“I’m certainly in no position to say this, since I’m already in prison after all.” Third Young Master showed the handcuffs on his hands to Mo Han. “You’re right. No matter the past or the future, only you’re in the position to say it.”

His tone slowly turned dejected. “She loved me for six years, and also suffered for six years. It’s different by your side, she’s always smiling by your side everyday.”

Third Young Master continued by himself, “Actually, I wanted to be with her when she said she loved me six years ago. But I could not give her the life she wanted, so I simply gave up.”

“So when she said she wanted to leave, I did not stop her. She’s different from me, I could no longer be saved, but there’s still hope for her. She deserves an even better life.”

Third Young Master raised his head to look at Mo Han, looking serious. “Please look after her well in the future.”

Mo Han looked at him and stayed silent for a long time.

After that, the time for their meeting ended. Third Young Master followed the officer back to prison, and Mo Han also stood up and left the police station.

It was already seven at night, much later than the time Mo Han had promised to pick Xia Qingyi up. He took out his phone, saw that there were four missed calls from Xia Qingyi and called her back.

“Where are you now?” Mo Han asked.

“I’m already at home.” Xia Qingyi had already changed and was sitting on the sofa.

“I’m sorry… Something came up tonight, so I was late. I didn’t hear you call me on the way.”

Xia Qingyi did not take it to heart. “It’s okay. Anyway, I always walked back by myself in the past. You don’t have to pick me up next time if you’re busy, it’s too troublesome.”

“There won’t be a next time.”

Xia Qingyi smiled. “I don’t blame you, there’s no need to do this, you just have to come back early.”

Hearing Xia Qingyi’s voice, Mo Han tightened his grip on the phone. He could not let Xia Qingyi leave him. No matter what, he did not want her to leave him.

He only had one thought on his mind at this moment.

“Then I’ll come back soon,” he said.

“Ah… don’t forget to buy those mini wontons from Zhou Ji, I’m hungry.” Xia Qingyi urged him as she usually did.

“Alright. I’ll also buy you a bag of red bean biscuits.”

“Don’t buy too many red bean biscuits, it’s easy to get fat when you eat that at night,” Xia Qingyi nagged at him.

After chatting a few sentences with Xia Qingyi, Mo Han felt the unease from meeting with Third Young Master gradually ebb away. Xia Qingyi did not know, but she would always calm him down in the shortest amount of time.

Mo Han told himself that he could not cause problems between the two of them because of things from the past, not when they finally got together after so much difficulty. He could not ruin everything that he finally have after so much hardship because of Third Young Master’s sudden appearance.

That was why he had to pretend that he did not know everything at all when he went back, Mo Han thought.

Mo Han brought Xia Qingyi’s favorite mini wontons and red bean biscuits back.

She was not in the living room. Mo Han brought the mini wontons along and found her in the study room. She was sitting on the chair, her eyes on the computer and her fingers typing continuously on the keyboard.

“You’re back?” Xia Qingyi saw him, her fingers still moving.

Mo Han held up the bag of mini wontons. “Here’s the stuff you want, come out and eat.”

Xia Qingyi was still typing away, her gaze on the computer screen. “Hold on, I’ll finish up. Put it outside, you should go and eat first.”

Mo Han closed the door and went to the kitchen. He poured the mini wontons into a bowl, sat on the chair and waited for a while. Seeing that she was still not coming out, he pushed the door open again and saw that she was still typing, so he said, “Do that later, come and eat first, or the food will get cold.”

Xia Qingyi said, “Alright, alright… just a few more words.”

Not long after she had spoke, Xia Qingyi finished her work and smiled. “Done! Alright, let’s go and eat!” She stood up and followed Mo Han outside.

When they were eating at the table, Xia Qingyi was constantly moving her chopsticks, while Mo Han’s bowl of mini wontons looked untouched. He kept watching Xia Qingyi eat. Xia Qingyi felt a little strange, and asked him, “Did you have a lot of… trouble at work today?”

Mo Han said, “Nope.”

“Then… is there something troubling you?”

“Not that either.”

“Then why do you look unhappy?” Xia Qingyi said.

Mo Han touched his face and asked, “Do I? Do I look very unhappy?”

“Yeah, you look like you’re pretty unhappy.” Xia Qingyi bit her chopsticks. “You usually eat quite a lot when you’re with me, but you haven’t eaten much today.”

Mo Han smiled. “I already ate something outside.”

“Then you look pretty unhappy, why? What happened?” Xia Qingyi asked.

He always thought that she would probably not be able to tell his inner feelings, but it did not seem like it now. To him, it was always handy to be able to hide your emotions around others. But whenever he saw Xia Qingyi, he seemed to forget how to hide his emotions.

Mo Han forced the corners of his mouth up into a smile. “It’s nothing, it’s just a tricky case that we have on our hands now.”

“Can I help you with anything?” Xia Qingyi asked tentatively.

Mo Han reached over the table to pat her head, feeling his heart soften. “It’s okay, just take care of your own things. I’ll handle it myself.”

Xia Qingyi looked at him, her eyes trained on him. “If you’re unhappy in the future, don’t stay silent and keep it to yourself. Even though I can’t help you with anything, I can be your rubbish bin. I can still stay beside you and listen to you.”

Mo Han saw how serious she looked, and he felt warmth in his heart. He kept quiet for a long time. Xia Qingyi saw that he did not speak, and lowered her head to continue eating her mini wontons. Mo Han saw her chew on them, and after a while smiled and asked, “Have you finished eating?”

Xia Qingyi swallowed the last piece, and raised her head to look at him, not knowing why he had asked that.

Mo Han stood up, bent down and kissed her. Xia Qingyi was still sitting there stunned, her eyes staring at Mo Han’s slanted head. His lips were still on hers, and he slipped his tongue in between her lips. His kiss was gentle and lingering, which made her feel touched. His tongue accidentally brushed again the roof of her mouth, making her shudder. She instinctively tried to move back, but Mo Han leaned in closer and used his hands to cup her chin, locking her against him.

Xia Qingyi tried to slowly respond to his kiss, and Mo Han kissed her back even harder. She kept tilting her neck up so it felt sore, so she moved back when she really could not take it any longer, putting some distance between the two of them.

Mo Han was still standing, and he lowered his head to look at her as he smiled, panting a little. Xia Qingyi looked at him and smiled too. “I am still eating the mini wontons, aren’t you afraid that there’ll be a smell?”

“No, it felt amazing,” Mo Han said.

Xia Qingyi pushed the unfinished mini wontons towards him. “There’s more here, you can eat them.”

Mo Han sat down, held her hand and did not let go and looked at her. “These aren’t as delicious as the ones in your mouth.”

Xia Qingyi shot him a dirty look and retracted her hand. “Ewww… you’re gross.”

Mo Han teased her. “There are grosser ones, do you want to try?”

Xia Qingyi said, “I don’t want to. I’m full, you can eat them if you want.”

She stood up and wanted to walk away, but Mo Han tugged at her hand again and said from behind, “Sleep in my room tonight.”

Xia Qingyi could not understand. “Why? I have been sleeping well these past few days, I don’t have insomnia, so why do I have to sleep in your room?”

Mo Han’s hand unintentionally wriggled in her palm. He kept looking at her and did not speak, and only then did Xia Qingyi understand, and her face turned red. “I’m not going to… have a good sleep by yourself.”

Mo Han did not release her hand. “You’re really not coming?”

Xia Qingyi took her hand away. “Yes, I have a report to finish, and I need to hand it in to my teacher tomorrow. I have to go back to the study room to do it now.”

Mo Han stood up, hugged her from the back and gently bit into her ear. “Then, when will you come?”

Xia Qingyi shrank into her neck. Mo Han biting her ear made her heart skip a beat. “After some time… I’m rather busy with schoolwork lately, and I have a lot of classes.”

Mo Han leaned forward and planted kisses on her neck. Xia Qingyi instinctively tilted her neck up, feeling as though a cat was scratching her with its claws. She pushed at Mo Han, “Stop fooling around, I’m going to do my work.”

Mo Han gave her another huge kiss before he let her go, leaving a huge hickey behind on her neck, and it was so painful that Xia Qingyi frowned. She rubbed her neck and turned back to look at Mo Han.

Mo Han also rubbed the marking on her neck, smiling contentedly, “Go back and do your essay, I’ll stop disturbing you.”

Xia Qingyi rolled her eyes at him and went back to the study room to finish up her essay.

Because she had lessons in the morning, Xia Qingyi woke up early the next day. She passed the essay she had just finished last night to the teacher so that the teacher could take a look at it and see where she could improve.

After she had finished the essays her teachers had instructed, Xia Qingyi had to immediately prepare for another examination. Even though she tried her best to study really hard in the morning, she was completely not in the mood to continue studying at home.

Her examinations were coming, and yet she did not have the drive to study at all. Xia Qingyi discussed with Mo Han about considering to apply for the school dorms to stay there for a few days.
