C22 This Is My Home
Where is she?
This was the first thing that popped up in Xia Wennuan's mind after she woke up.
She looked around, and wherever she looked, there was a strange scene - - where exactly was this place?
After opening her eyes for more than ten seconds, Xia Wennuan's heart was suddenly startled and she hurriedly got up from the bed. She wrapped herself in the blanket and retreated to the other side of the bed, looking at the man lying on the other side of the bed in surprise.
"Who are you!" Xia Wennuan was so scared that her face turned pale. When she saw that her clothes were still intact, she quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Mo Shaoqing woke up. He looked up and saw Xia Wennuan's pale face. He could not help but frown.
He did not like Xia Wennuan showing such a panicked expression, especially in front of him.
After seeing Mo Shaoqing's face, Xia Wennuan pulled the blanket tight. "You... Mo Shaoqing? I... Why am I here? What kind of place is this?"
"This is my home." Mo Shaoqing rubbed his temples, which were hurting, and replied faintly.
"But, but why am I at your home?" It turned out that the soft bed and soft blanket that she had dreamt of last night were not dreams, but real!
She was really lying in such a good place!
"I don't know where your home is, and you fell asleep again, so I had to bring you here."
"Then..." When Xia Wennuan heard that others had helped her and did not intend to bring her back, she immediately felt guilty, "Thank you, Mr. Mo. I have really... disturbed you."
"It's alright." He really liked to be disturbed like this.
"I'm leaving." Xia Wennuan's face was red and her ears were hot. She moved her body to the bedside and quietly put her legs down, planning to walk this way.
Mo Shaoqing saw through Xia Wennuan's intentions at first glance. Seeing her shy and cute appearance, his heart warmed. "You're leaving just like that?"
"I..." Xia Wennuan paused for a moment. She looked at Mo Shaoqing anxiously and pulled her collar. "Do you have anything else?"
"It's fine, but you don't have anything to say to me?" Looking at Xia Wennuan, Mo Shaoqing seemed to be waiting for her answer.
But Xia Wennuan really did not know what to say.
When she woke up, she found that she was in a man's house and was still lying on his bed. After she recovered, of course, she should leave this place as soon as possible, right?
"Sorry to disturb you." Xia Wennuan took a deep breath and lowered her head to Mo Shaoqing. "Thank you for taking care of me. I have to go home."
She was really going to leave. If she continued to stay here, her heart would jump out of her throat.
But where was the exit?
Xia Wennuan looked at the huge room and found that there were two or three doors. She did not know where to exit.
Such a big house, could it be Mo Shaoqing's residence? He was just a small civil servant. How could he live in such a big and luxurious house?
Xia Wennuan could not help feeling puzzled. She stopped in her tracks as she was about to leave. She looked at Mo Shaoqing doubtfully.
Mo Shaoqing instantly understood what Xia Wennuan meant. He explained to her, "I forgot to tell you that this house was lent to me by a rich relative of mine. He was overseas all year round, so he invited me to look at the house for him. He also waived the rent. "
"Oh, so that's how it is." Xia Wennuan nodded her head in understanding and a relieved expression appeared on her face.
So it was a relative, not someone else's - -
For example, a rich young lady or a rich woman.
Oh my god, what was she thinking? Even if Mo Shaoqing was very handsome and could get something by looking at his face, it did not mean that he would...
Xia Wennuan felt that her thoughts were too evil and too unfair to Mo Shaoqing, so she very quickly shook off the random thoughts in her mind. "I'll be leaving first."
"I will send you off." Mo Shaoqing suggested.
Xia Wennuan pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, "Okay. Thank you, Mr. Mo."
Mo Shaoqing was surprised that Xia Wennuan did not reject him. He could not help feeling flattered, "You, are you really willing to let me send you home?"
"I don't think I know the road here." Xia Wennuan honestly told him the reason.
She only wanted to rush home as soon as possible. She did not go home overnight. She did not know how chaotic the house would be. Xia Siying would definitely make a big fuss out of nothing.
If her father knew, she would definitely be scolded when she went home.
Thinking of her father's possibly disappointed expression, Xia Wennuan's heart began to feel sad.
In this family, what Xia Wennuan cared about the most was her father's feelings.
Xia Wennuan's eyes dimmed and her footsteps unconsciously quickened.
"You are so anxious to leave this place?" Mo Shaoqing pulled Xia Wennuan, who was in a hurry to leave, and held her wrist tightly. "That is the bathroom. The door is here."
"Ah, sorry." Xia Wennuan blushed. "Your room is too big. I..."
"It's okay. Go wash up first. There is a new towel and toothbrush in the drawer."
Mo Shaoqing let go of Xia Wennuan's hand and gently pushed her into the bathroom. "I'll wait for you outside."
"Okay." Xia Wennuan's head was almost down to her chest.
She had never been to a man's house since she was a child. She had never stayed in a man's room. This was the first time and also the first time that she did not know what to do.
After closing the bathroom door, Xia Wennuan walked to the bathroom mirror and looked at her slightly red face. She felt very embarrassed.
She really should not drink. Next time, she would not drink even if she was beaten to death.
The woman in the mirror looked very terrible. Her hair was messy and her clothes were untidy...
"Oh my god!" Mo Shaoqing saw her like this!
After a moment of frustration, Xia Wennuan poured some cold water on her face and opened the drawer according to Mo Shaoqing's instructions. She took out a toothbrush and towel from the drawer.
After washing up, Xia Wennuan tidied her clothes again and then opened the door and walked out.
Mo Shaoqing was at the door. When he saw her open the door, he turned his head and looked at her. "Are you better?"
"Much better." Xia Wennuan's small face became hot. She hurriedly lowered her head, not letting Mo Shaoqing see her blushing face.
Mo Shaoqing did not mind and naturally held her hand. He walked out of the room and went downstairs.
This house was really big.
Xia Wennuan looked at the gorgeous hall in shock. She obediently followed Mo Shaoqing downstairs.
After coming out of the door, she saw that this house was bigger than she had imagined. It was a European style garden villa. It was exquisite, gorgeous, and beautiful like a castle.
There were many flowers and plants planted in the garden that they had just passed by. The fragrance of flowers assailed their nostrils and butterflies flew everywhere. It was as if they were in a fairytale world here.
Seeing Xia Wennuan stunned, Mo Shaoqing asked softly, "Do you like it here?"
"It is very beautiful here. These flowers are very special." Xia Wennuan realized that she had lost control of herself and smiled apologetically, "The air is also very good."
"Is that so?" Mo Shaoqing smiled.
"Yes, don't you think so?" Xia Wennuan nodded.
"I didn't think so in the past, but after you said it, I started to feel that this place is really good." Mo Shaoqing thought for a while and replied.
He said it sincerely because he had never paid attention to what Xia Wennuan said before. He only felt that it was very quiet here and no one came to disturb him.
After Xia Wennuan said it, he actually felt that he had found a paradise.
Unfortunately, in this paradise, there was still a lack of a mistress.
With this thought in mind, Mo Shaoqing shifted his gaze to Xia Wennuan's tranquil face. Looking at her beautiful and elegant appearance, his heart suddenly softened.
If Xia Wennuan became the mistress, it would be even better.
"What are you looking at? There is something on my face?"
Xia Wennuan felt very uncomfortable when she felt that the person beside her was looking at her with burning eyes.
"You are very beautiful." Mo Shaoqing pursed his lips and praised.
Xia Wennuan did not know how to respond to such words. After thinking for a while, she could only praise him back, "Thank you. You are also very handsome."
After sitting in Mo Shaoqing's car, Xia Wennuan did not speak anymore. She even specially sat in the back seat and tilted her head to look at the scenery outside the window. She did not even look at Mo Shaoqing, who was sitting in the driver's seat.
Just like that, she went all the way to the entrance of the neighborhood where Xia Wennuan was.
"Okay, stop here. You don't need to go in. It's already very troublesome for you."
"Okay." Mo Shaoqing turned the car around and stopped the car. "Don't need me to drive you anymore?"
"No need. I am already home." Xia Wennuan looked grateful. "Thank you, Mr. Mo."
"It has only been a short while and you have already said many words of thanks to me. If I am so worthy of your thanks, you can treat me to a meal next time." Mo Shaoqing looked at Xia Wennuan with a look of anticipation.
Xia Wennuan, on the other hand, backed away. She waved to Mo Shaoqing and did not mention the matter of eating. She did not say thank you anymore. "Then I will go."
Xia Wennuan left. Mo Shaoqing watched her disappear and then muttered, "Why didn't you say goodbye?"
But it was not important. What was important was...
Xia Wennuan, you will never be able to escape.
Xia Wennuan carefully used the key to open the door and tiptoed into the house to change her shoes.
However, this did not cover the fact that she did not return for the whole night.
The moment she entered, she saw that all the family members were sitting in the living room, as if waiting for her to come back.
Xia Wennuan's throat seemed to have something stuck in it. She was silent for a long time before she opened her mouth in a daze, "Dad, Auntie. Siying, you are all here."
Xia Wennuan could feel that her voice was trembling.
Xia Tingsheng's face was black as he stared at Xia Wennuan with a pair of dead fish eyes. He looked at Xia Wennuan without moving and did not say a word for a long time. It seemed that he was very angry.
Tao Lihua, on the other hand, did not seem to care as she weaved her sweater leisurely.
Xia Siying was even more proud. She was the one who was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
"You guys... If there is nothing else, I will go in first." Xia Wennuan spoke slowly.
"You still have the face to come back?"
Xia Tingsheng slammed the table hard and scolded loudly, "Speak! Where did you go last night? Why didn't you come back overnight? Do you still know this home? Do you still know that I'm your father? What did I tell you in the past? Did you forget everything?"
His elder daughter had not returned for the entire night. He only found out this morning that he could not get through to her despite the number of times he had called. He was so anxious that he was about to get angry.
Xia Tingsheng did not even have breakfast in the morning. He sat there and waited for people. But he did not expect Xia Wennuan to only come back at noon.
It was really the opposite!
