Chapter 26: You’d Better Make Her Happy for Me
In the luxurious hospital room, Lin Muxi lay quietly on the bed in her hospital gown. Her chest rose and fell softly with each shallow breath.
Sitting beside her, Mo Ziyang stood up. He looked at Lin Muxi’s pale face, now with a faint touch of color, and was momentarily dazed by the sight of her hair spread over the pillow.
Even with a bandage wrapped around her forehead, her sleeping face was still so cute.
“Tsk, such trouble…”
Mo Ziyang snapped out of it and frowned, muttering a curse under his breath. For some reason, her cuteness made him wish she really was a girl.
Since he had always treated this “good bro” of his without any guard or suspicion, he found it hard to resist that sweet, peaceful expression.
But sticking to his principle of “finish the job quickly and be done with it,” he pushed away those messy thoughts and reached his “devilish” hand toward Lin Muxi.
One by one, he unbuttoned her hospital gown. His heartbeat grew tense until, there it was. The small, gentle curves on her chest made him freeze.
“This… this shouldn’t be like this.”
Smooth, pale skin. Soft curves. No Adam’s apple. Plus the two band-aids the nurse had given him earlier… All signs pointed to the fact that his “good brother” was, without a doubt, a real girl.
Mo Ziyang’s hands trembled slightly. They had even used the restroom together before. How could she possibly be a girl? Unless… what, aliens came to Earth and science stopped working?
His dark eyes shifted down toward her pants.
He knew it wasn’t right, shouldn’t be right, but he needed to confirm it for himself. He had to know.
Besides, his grandfather hadn’t arrived yet, and no one else was watching. Why should he hold back?
With no more hesitation, he placed a hand on her lower stomach, slowly and carefully moving it downward along her body.
Gently. Quietly. Without her noticing.
And the moment he reached the spot, Mo Ziyang froze in shock. Flat. She really was a girl!
Impossible! The truth hit him so hard he sat there stunned. But before he could process it, he didn’t notice the slight change in Lin Muxi’s sleeping expression.
The next second, without warning, Lin Muxi suddenly sat up straight in bed, as if she had just realized something.
“What the heck! What’s in my pants?!”
Staring at Mo Ziyang, who was still frozen with his hand somewhere it clearly shouldn’t be, Lin Muxi was completely dumbfounded.
What was going on? Why was her bro’s hand there? And where were her own clothes? Why had she been changed into a hospital gown, and why was it unbuttoned?!
At first, she had only faintly felt something moving across her stomach, making her skin tingle a little. But then, her sensitive body was suddenly jolted awake by the unexpected touch. And when she opened her eyes, she saw it, her bro’s hand was on her!
“You… you better take your hand out right now! You pervert!”
Blushing with both anger and embarrassment, Lin Muxi covered her chest with both hands. Looking at Mo Ziyang, who was still frozen in shock, she finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“Ah… oh, I… I’m sorry.”
But just as Mo Ziyang was about to pull his hand back, a sound from the doorway caught both of their attention.
“No! Get away!”
Trusting her strange sixth sense, Lin Muxi suddenly felt uneasy when she heard the voice. She quickly pushed away Mo Ziyang’s hand from inside her pants, then wrapped her upper body tightly with the blanket.
As the door opened, Mo Ziyang’s grandfather, Mo Chengling, appeared at the entrance of the hospital room. The anger in his eyes was so obvious, it was like the word “furious” was written across his face.
Clearly, the old man had already seen what Mo Ziyang had been doing through the small window in the door.
Looking at Lin Muxi wrapped up in bed and his shameless grandson who still hadn’t gotten off the bed, Mo Chengling almost couldn’t stop himself from pulling off his belt to start hitting him. Instead, he called out to him.
“You… come with me.”
With just that one sentence, Mo Ziyang, face full of misery, obediently followed his grandfather out of the room, leaving Lin Muxi alone on the hospital bed.
Once they were gone, Lin Muxi quickly buttoned up her hospital gown, hugged her knees, rested her chin on them, and curled up into a small ball. She stared blankly into the distance.
Trying hard to recall what had happened earlier, she finally remembered, around noon, she and Mo Ziyang had gotten into a fight, and she had hit her head on the table.
Thinking of this, she reached her small hand up to touch her head.
“Ouch… it hurts!” Sure enough, she felt a bandage wrapped around her forehead, and the sharp pain in her head proved that she had really hit it hard.
But… wait a minute. Shouldn’t she be wondering why her “good bro” Mo Ziyang had his hand inside her pants?
Hold on! Doesn’t this mean… Mo Ziyang already knows she’s a girl?!
It’s over… how could this happen? What is she going to do now? She absolutely didn’t want to end up like in those novels where the male lead tricks the girl into becoming his wife!
Unable to accept the truth, Lin Muxi collapsed onto the bed. Tears of frustration rolled down one after another, falling onto the pillow.
“Uu… uu…”
A soft sobbing sound slowly spread through the quiet hospital room. It wasn’t loud, but the sadness in it was obvious.
With red, tear-swollen eyes, Lin Muxi just couldn’t understand, what had she done to deserve this kind of punishment from heaven?
It was bad enough that she had suddenly become a girl… but now she had to endure being bullied (and even extorted for money) by her so-called good bro. Being humiliated was one thing, but she couldn’t even fight back, she always ended up losing. And now, Mo Ziyang had even taken advantage of her like that!
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. At first, she could still hold back her sobs, but soon she couldn’t stop them. She buried her head under the blanket on the bed.
Of course, this scene did not escape the eyes of Mo Chengling, who was outside scolding his grandson. Seeing Lin Muxi looking so heartbroken, his own heart ached as well. He grabbed Mo Ziyang, whose butt was already sore from being hit, and pulled him up from the ground.
“You little brat, listen to me. If it weren’t for the jade pendant Lin Muxi gave you, you wouldn’t even be alive today. Tonight, you’re going to make her happy again and then bring her home. Do you hear me?”
At this moment, after getting whipped several times, Mo Ziyang didn’t dare talk back. At home, he feared his grandfather the most, and now he had been caught doing something bad.
With no way to argue, Mo Ziyang quickly nodded, still holding his sore backside.
“When you come home tonight, I’ll explain the reason to you all. I have something to do now, so I’m leaving this matter to you. Don’t you dare cause any more trouble.”
Seeing his grandson nod, the old man finally felt a bit relieved. He glanced at his phone, then hurried away with his secretary.
