Qiao Mo slowly raised her head. What greeted her was Xiao Yan's cold and detached gaze. She bit her lips, and was forced into a corner by his furious rebuke, unable to speak.
She and Rong Chengmo had only chatted for a short while in the coffee shop, but he had felt that she was carrying him on her back and had done something to let him down?
If that was the case, wouldn't she have to calculate with him and talk about the dubious relationship he had with Song Xiazhi and Su Hua?
"Xiao Yan, I have not done anything, please do not pin this crime on my head."
The man's face, which seemed so handsome and lively even when angry, sneered slightly. It was like the night outside the window of a Maybach. It was cold and lonely. "You mean that I wronged you?"
"Isn't it?"
Xiao Yan smirked and laughed mockingly, "Half an hour ago, I had Zhao Qian drive you home. Why did you reject my suggestion to lie and claim that Uncle Wang would come pick you up? Yet, she herself ran into Rong Chengmo's embrace and was intimate with him?! "
Qiao Mo was startled, but when she was questioned, he choked.
She just. He was just in a bad mood.
Could it be that even now, he still didn't understand the reason why she wasn't in a good mood and didn't want to go home?
"Xiao Yan! If you really suspect the relationship between Mr. Rong and I … "
Suddenly, a dark and solemn figure appeared above her, coldly staring at the petite figure beneath her. It was as if a dormant beast was living within his black eyes, ready to strike.
"Mr. Rong? You call me that so intimately? "
Long, cold fingers closed around her face.
His clear eyes met with his deep black pupils.
"Qiao Mo was almost driven mad, in the half-light, she could not help but have the corners of her eyes turn red," You asked me to be loyal to you, but what about you, what have you done with Su Hua and Song Xiazhi?!
The man's fingers tightened.
"Eh …." Qiao Mo's lower jaw made a crack, hurting so much that she felt like she was about to die.
"Qiao, Mo, don't try to change the topic!"
She stared at him in despair, and the pain in her chin couldn't be felt in the slightest. Holding onto her pale lips and slightly curling it up, her light smile was like a clear lotus, "Xiao Yan, did I say something … You don't believe it …? "
The man lowered his head, blocking her small mouth. His hard teeth pressed against her soft lips. He bit down hard, and a bead of blood suddenly appeared on her lips.
His voice was so cold it sounded like he was saying, "The result I trusted you with was that I saw you colluding with other men! "Joe, Mo, I'm so disappointed with you —"
Qiao Mo clenched her small fists tightly and glared at him. She used the back of her hand to wipe away the blood on her lips and fearlessly said, "I won't admit to what I have never done!"
"You won't admit it, right? Qiao Mo, you can! "
Xiao Yan was completely enraged, he ordered Zhao Qian who was driving: "Turn around, head to New Garden!"
Zhao Qian looked at Xiao Yan from the rearview mirror, "Boss, are we going to New Garden tonight?"
But, Chairman Xiao had just called to ask them to return to Xiao Family Villa as soon as possible …
Xiao Yan was still fuming, he scolded Zhao Qian, "You have no ears?!"
Zhao Qian was embarrassed, he knew that no one could change Xiao Yan's decision, so he immediately turned around and headed towards the New Garden.
Qiao Mo was startled, what kind of place was the New Garden? She hadn't been there.
Panic and subconscious attacks.
"I don't want to go to New Garden …"
Before she could even finish her words, Xiao Yan had firmly grabbed her wrist and waist, "From now on, I will not give you any chance to come into contact with any man other than me!"
Qiao Mo shuddered violently.
His face was dark and cold, like an asura from hell.
Qiao Mo had never seen such a terrifying Xiao Yan, so she resisted in a low voice: "Can you speak reason …?"
Xiao Yan rejected it immediately: "In my place, there is no such logic as you!"
… ….
Although Qiao Mo was four months pregnant, she was genuinely under house arrest by Xiao Yan.
The only space she could move in was a small New Garden. All communication equipment between her and the outside world was confiscated.
Outside, there were only bodyguards. She couldn't escape.
Xiao Yan did not come to see her.
Three meals a day, and there were many people who delivered them. There was even a female housekeeper who served her.
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.
On New Year's Eve, the weather was sunny and sunny.
When female housekeeper saw that she had been bored inside the bedroom, he couldn't help but advise: "Madam, you should go out and take a walk in the courtyard to bask in the sunlight. If this goes on, people will get bored to death."
female housekeeper had thought that since Master had placed his wife under house arrest, she would desperately struggle or even flee. She had never expected that she would be so obedient as not to leave the house at all.
Qiao Mo smiled kindly to the female housekeeper, "I'm not bored, it's fine."
Pregnant women are addicted to sleep, especially when it has been almost five months, Qiao Mo has been sleeping after eating so much these past few days, not thinking about anything else at all.
Not only did he not lose weight, but he had also gained a bit of weight. At last, he had the round appearance of a pregnant woman.
… ….
female housekeeper gave Xiao Yan regular reports on Qiao Mo's situation.
"Sir, Madam has been eating well these days and sleeping soundly. She will not run away unless there was a hunger strike. She will not make a fuss nor make a fuss. She will just stay at home, not taking a single step."
Xiao Yan frowned, was she going against him?!
"I won't allow her to stay in the house forever. Also, I won't allow her to eat until she's full!"
The corner of female housekeeper's mouth twitched, "..."
Isn't Mister's request a bit too harsh?
Xiao Yan pressed his brows together. The reason why he kept her under house was not to let her leave him so that he could lead a good life. It was to make her soften his attitude and beg him to let her out!
Moreover, in a few more hours, it would be New Year's Eve. She was purposely unhappy with him right now, right?!
… ….
Qiao Mo sat on the side of the bed, seriously knitting the little woolen sweater in her hands.
After female housekeeper and Xiao Yan got off the phone, they knocked on the door and entered, reminding him respectfully, "Madam, it's New Year's Eve today, you …"
Qiao Mo looked up and smiled warmly at female housekeeper, "Oh, I know."
"Then you... "Is there anything you would like to tell mister?"
Qiao Mo shook her head, she was neither arrogant nor impatient, her temper was extremely good, "I have nothing to say to him."
female housekeeper was troubled, "This … New Year's Eve, when you are reunited with your family, your wife has never thought about it.
Qiao Mo smiled bitterly, lowered her soft gaze, looked at her slightly bulging stomach, and gently caressed it, "Since I have to separate from him sooner or later, what's the point of having so much time together? Besides... "Forget it, I don't care about anything anymore. It's fine as long as the baby is born safely."
It's good to be like this right now, without disturbing each other.
By Xiao Yan's side, she would always act lowly, trembling in fear and trepidation, while he was always high and mighty. This feeling of distance made Qiao Mo feel extremely terrible.
Besides, if they were together, if they could communicate and talk, she wouldn't be so reluctant to go out. But if she was with him, if she couldn't speak, it must be a quarrel or his indifference, so why did she ask him to let her go?
The female housekeeper sighed, "Then Madame … Are you sure you don't want to beg Mister? "
Qiao Mo nodded, "I don't want to beg him."
female housekeeper seemed to still want to say something, but Qiao Mo raised her clear eyes and asked: "Butler, I'm hungry. Why haven't you delivered lunch today?"
female housekeeper pursed her lips. Looking at such a kind mistress, she felt a little embarrassed to speak.
Qiao Mo sensed that something was wrong. Looking at the female housekeeper who was in a difficult situation, she asked gently: "What's wrong?"
Only then did female housekeeper open her mouth slowly: "Madam, I'm sorry, sir had just instructed, yes, I do not wish for you to eat until you are soundly asleep …"
Qiao Mo pursed her lips, "Alright, I understand. Butler, can you give me your cell phone? "
female housekeeper knew that she was going to call Mister to reason, so she quickly agreed.
Wasn't mister trying to goad his wife into calling him?
… ….
After Qiao Mo dialed a number, the other party connected.
The person that answered the phone was Zhao Qian.
"Madam, the Boss is in a meeting and is temporarily away. You can come back later."
Qiao Mo opened her mouth and spoke straightforwardly: "Special Assistance Zhao, I do not need to speak to your BOSS. Just help me tell him that if you do not give me food, she will think that I will lower my head and beg him. It's not because I'm afraid of starving myself, it's because I'm afraid of starving my baby. "
With that, Qiao Mo hung up.
… ….
On the other side, in the Xiao's Building, in the CEO's office.
Zhao Qian helplessly put down the phone, and was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say to Xiao Yan.
The man calmly sat on the black chair. With an indifferent expression, he slowly asked, "What did she say?"
Zhao Qian facepalmed and wiped away his sweat, "Madam said... If you don't give her food and want her to beg you, then you can do it, but she is with you because of the child in her womb. "A low head."
Zhao Qian tried his best to soften his voice, afraid that he would enrage Xiao Yan even more.
As expected, the man's thin lips sank even deeper.
"Tell her to come beg me personally —"
"This... "Then should I call him now?"
Xiao Yan pursed his lips, his aura overcast, "Now, immediately, now!"
Zhao Qian: "…"
Zhao Qian dialed a number and called Qiao Mo.
"Madam, the Boss said that if you want to come out from New Garden, you should personally ask him for help. I'll give the phone to … "
Before Zhao Qian even finished speaking, Xiao Yan had already stood up and grabbed the cell phone in Zhao Qian's hand.
Looking at the phone number, he spoke coldly: "Qiao Mo, please."
Qiao Mo swallowed her saliva, took a deep breath and said slowly: "I will never admit to the things that I have never done, as for you keeping me under house arrest in the New Garden, with so many bodyguards watching over me, it is also your fault. I do not complain, I did not run away, but you did not watch me get used to it, and ended my food, this is still your fault …"
"That is to say, from start to finish, it's my fault?"
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and asked the little lady.
Qiao Mo said one word with determination, "Yes."
Xiao Yan suppressed the anger in his chest, and said with pursed lips: "Speak, continue!"
Qiao Mo remained neither humble nor arrogant, and continued: "The baby in my stomach, is not only mine, but yours. "You are the child's father, it's illegal for you to imprison me …"
"Heh, this is what you mean by 'beg me'?"
What she meant by "beg him" was to accuse him, accuse him, give him legal knowledge, and tell him that his house arrest was against the law?!
Qiao Mo remained calm, "If you don't want this child, then continue to starve me. I know that you truly never wanted this child, and when you lose this child, you will even drag me onto the operation table to be compatible with Song Xiazhi."
"Qiao, Mo —!"
Completely angered him.
