Chapter 141: A Red Wine Kiss

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As he tilted the glass, he remembered the kiss at the dining table when Xia Qingyi had first drank alcohol.

She had her eyes closed while smiling happily, as she tugged on his tie. He had not even had the chance to be aware of what was going to happen when she had kissed his lips.

Mo Han had never told Xia Qingyi that her lips were very soft, moist with something lingering.

When he was dating Shen Rou, they had kissed and had even more intimate interactions. Men were beings that were driven by desire. The weird thing, however, was that he had rarely felt this primal impulse with his few ex-girlfriends. He had always thought that this was caused by his rational and indifferent personality.

But, Xia Qingyi was clearly different.

Xia Qingyi’s clothes were always in a mess when she had just waken up. Sometimes, she would not even know that half of her shoulder was exposed. Mo Han would always turn his eyes away from her body every time, not daring to keep his eyes on her for more than a few seconds.

He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back. A body’s reaction was always the most correct. He felt an impulse for her.

Mo Han stared at his hand as he remembered that time he had held her against the door when they had returned home after she had gotten drunk. His fingers had moved around her body without a care. Compared to Xia Qingyi’s body, his fingers were hard and very rough. There was some sort of unexplainable desire as they touched her body. He had touched almost every part of her skin of her upper body, from her soft breasts, smooth back and thin waist. Xia Qingyi had obviously been frightened as she looked at him. He told her that he had done it to make her learn her lesson.

But Mo Han was clear that he had done it to

If it had not been for Xia Qingyi’s tears that day, he might have been unable to hold back the urge to kiss her in the dark.

Mo Han felt that it was funny. Xia Qingyi had still been calling him older brother, clueless that there was a wolf lurking next to her.

Unknowingly, Mo Han had singlehandedly finished half a bottle of the red wine. It was probably due to the quiet and lonely night and tipsy feeling he had from the alcohol that Mo Han could let go of himself and recall what had happened that night. His lips touched the edge of the wine glass lightly. The fragrance of the red wine lingered at the tip of his nose. The liquid touched his tongue. The feeling was similar to Xia Qingyi’s slightly cold and moist lips that day. He stared at the dark red liquid and he could not help but finish it in one go.

The next morning, Mo Han woke up with a hangover. He had finished the entire bottle of red wine on the table. He fell asleep on the sofa, and his head felt like exploding from the pain when he had woken up. The sky was bright and Mo Han looked at the time on his phone on the table. It was 7.30 A.M.

It was not too late as Mo Han forced himself to get up and take a shower in the bathroom. He hastily dried his hair and brushed his teeth and changed for work as usual. He did not have the time to eat breakfast, before he hurriedly left for work with his document bag.

Mo Han stopped in his steps when he reached the door. Unconsciously, he wanted to turn back and rush Xia Qingyi to hurry up, or she would be late for her classes.

However, there was no one behind him. The entire house was so quiet that it was scary.

Mo Han’s eyes hardened as he tidied his tie and pushed open the door to leave the house.

In the morning, Xia Qingyi did not think the way she had last night, having been suspicious of everything in her sleepy daze. She wanted to laugh a little when she thought about her actions last night. She did not know when she had become so suspicious. It was not like she could find out the truth about everything that she had not quite understood in such a short time.

Xia Qingyi was clear about the fact that any decision made at night was unreliable. That was why her heart calmed down as the sky brightened. She was still going to stay here.

Regardless of everything else, she had memories of this house. She had memories of her mother in this house.

The answer that she wanted was definitely in this house.

She was starting to feel that all of her past memories were especially important to her. She did not want others to tell her about these memories. She wanted to slowly remember them by herself. She would be able to do it. All she needed was time.

Han Liang had told her to not go to the school in F City, and that the university that she had originally been attending was here. It was a very established design school, and he would take her to report at that school when she was rested enough.

If she could find her memories here, she could give up her studies over there temporarily, even if she really liked that course of study.</p><p>However, she had told Han Liang that she would need to go to S City today. She wanted to settle the procedures for dropping out of school herself. Not only that, there were still some of her things at Mo Han’s place in S City that she need to get.</p><p>Han Liang wanted to go with her, only to be firmly rejected by her. He had no choice but to agree, though he made her promise to return by 8 P.M.</p><p>And Xia Qingyi returned to S City just like that. She wanted to take a good look at that city and make her farewell quietly so that others would not find out.</p><p>Mo Han was definitely still angry and did not want to see her. It was not like she dared to appear in front of him either. That was why she had specifically chosen a time that he was definitely not going to be at home to go back to his place secretly to take some of her stuff.</p><p>When she went back, the house was really empty. Xia Qingyi felt so guilty that she did not dare to stand straight as she entered the house. When she passed by the living room, she smelt a very strong smell of alcohol She glanced towards the table and saw an empty bottle of red wine and an empty wine glass.</p><p>Had Mo Han drank?</p><p>Xia Qingyi walked over and picked up the empty wine bottle to take a closer look before she placed it down again. His clothes hanging on the balcony were dry and Xia Qingyi walked over to place them in his room out of habit.</p><p>After having looked here and there, Xia Qingyi had already forgotten the real reason why she had come. She started to act like she was at home usually, as she tidied </p><p>It was only after she had finished an apple, three oranges and a bag of potato chips that Xia Qingyi finally remembered the main reason for coming here after she saw that it was already 5 P.M. She hurriedly ran to her room to start packing her things.</p><p>Actually, she did not have too many things. They were just some simple daily items that she had gotten used to using. She did not like to use the new things over there as well. There was also one more thing that Mo Han had bought for her, a pillow to help with her insomnia. It had a type of natural aroma that was able to make her nerves relax and was especially effective for helping with insomnia.</p><p>Xia Qingyi remembered when Mo Han had first bought the pillow. She was still puzzled about why Mo Han would buy a pillow. He had not told her about the use of the pillow either, which was why she had just thrown it to a corner of her bed and did not care about it. It was only afterwards when Mo Han had entered her room and saw that she had put the pillow under her legs indifferently that he could not hold himself back and told her about the use of the pillow, and for her to use it to sleep next time.</p><p>Xia Qingyi followed his words in half-belief afterwards and hugged it to sleep everyday. True to his words, she really fell asleep very quickly every night. At some point, Xia Qingyi had even thought that the pillow was her "sacred" item.</p><p>That was why she could never throw away this thing. She thought about placing it in which bag.</p><p>Just as she was lying on the floor with her arms stretched to take the big bag under her bed, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.</p><p>Xia Qingyi jumped at the sound. She looked up hastily and hit her head against the edge of the bed. She climbed up as she winced in pain while rubbing her head, only to see Mo Han, who was standing at the door.</p><p>"Why are you back so early?" Xia Qingyi shrank herself as she asked softly.</p><p>"What are you doing? Mo Han’s expression was the same as yesterday. There was no sign that he was going to stop being angry, as Xia Qingyi felt that she had practically sent herself to her death by coming over today.</p><p>"I… I… came to get something. I’m sorry… I thought that you weren’t around."</p><p>"Take what?" Mo Han looked behind her.</p><p>Xia Qingyi knew that she definitely looked like a thief currently. She weakly picked up the pillow next to her. "This… I’m sorry… if you don’t like it… then I won’t take it."</p><p>Mo Han chuckled, "Is a pillow worth it for you to come back secretly?"</p><p>Xia Qingyi thought that he did not like her taking things from his house as they had seemingly broken ties. She did not feel too happy about it. "I’m sorry… I shouldn’t take it."</p><h3>Going Back to See Mo Han
