In the original world, the original owner, who died young and was considered a "white moonlight" (ideal love), acted as a mediator between Wen Xuheng and Han Yuxin.

In this mission world, the original owner's long-dead white moonlight is gone, but there is still Qi Ning, the living childhood sweetheart.

Generally speaking, the living cannot compare to the dead. Qi Ning's role between Han Yuxin and Wen Xuheng should not be as significant as the original owner's. However, since Qi Ning's involvement in Han Yuchen's imprisonment has added new conflicts.

Qi Ning guessed that Wen Xuheng and Han Yuxin would most likely develop their relationship as in the original story and eventually get together, but there would be many conflicts along the way, and Qi Ning would be one of those conflicts.

In fact, Qi Ning wasn't interested in how things would develop between them. As long as Han Yuxin stopped causing her trouble, she wouldn't bother with her. But if Han Yuxin insisted on causing her trouble, she wouldn't hold back.

Just as she was spacing out, her phone suddenly rang a few times.

Qi Ning picked up her phone and saw that it was a message from Yuan Qin.

He asked Qi Ning if she had gotten on the bus, then comforted her about what had just happened with Han Yuxin, and launched a scathing attack on Han Yuxin and her family.

Qi Ning looked at the "righteous indignation" he tried so hard to portray between the lines and couldn't help but find it somewhat laughable.

Just now in the private room, Qi Ning recognized Yuan Qin at a glance. He was one of Han Yuchen's little followers back then. Although he didn't directly do anything to bully the original owner or Qi Ning, he did say a lot of things to flatter Han Yuchen.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Qin had been persistently trying to get close to her. Since his family owned a real estate company, Qi Ning took the opportunity to use him to provoke Pei Mo without any guilt.

The reason Yuan Qin is acting so "righteous" right now is mainly because Han Yuchen has been imprisoned and the Han family has declined.

Before Qi Ning could figure out how to reply, Pei Mo's voice came through her ear: "Who are you chatting with?"

Qi Ning looked at Pei Mo and replied naturally, "Yuan Qin."

"Is that the person who was sitting next to you just now? Did you exchange contact information with him?" Pei Mo asked knowingly.

“Yes.” Qi Ning nodded slightly. “Yuan Qin’s family is in the real estate business. He said that if I want to rent or buy a house in the future, I can ask him for help.”

Pei Mo's face was expressionless. He simply said, "Didn't I already say that once you've settled into your job and are sure you want to move out, I'll arrange accommodation for you? Are you in such a hurry to move out?"

"That was not what I meant."

Qi Ning turned off her phone screen and didn't reply to Yuan Qin's message. She explained to Pei Mo, "I was just thinking that you're usually very busy, and I don't have much to do lately. Yuan Qin's family happens to be in the real estate business, so I can take this opportunity to get some information from him."

After listening, Pei Mo responded calmly, "Yes, that's true."

But in his heart he thought that explaining was worse than not explaining at all. All he said was that Qi Ning just wanted to move out.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and frowned slightly, looking as if he wasn't feeling well.

He didn't say another word on the way home.

Once they arrived back at the Pei family home, the driver parked the car in the yard, and the two got out.

But after Pei Mo got out of the car, for some reason, he almost missed a step while going up the steps in the hall.

Qi Ning quickly supported his arm: "Pei Mo, what's wrong? Are you drunk?"

His tone revealed concern.

Pei Mo was just a little lost in thought and didn't pay attention to his feet, but when Qi Ning asked him, he didn't deny it and just hummed in response.

"You told me to drink less, but you ended up getting drunk yourself. Honestly," Qi Ning complained softly.

She continued to support Pei Mo, and said, "Let's go, I'll help you inside."

Pei Mo looked down at Qi Ning's worried expression, offering no explanation, and silently leaned his weight against her, as if he were truly drunk.

Qi Ning helped Pei Mo into the living room.

When Yang's mother saw this scene, she was startled: "What happened?"

"It's nothing, he's just a little drunk," Qi Ning replied.

"Oh dear, she should have drunk less," Yang's mother muttered.

"Luckily, I prepared some hangover soup in advance." She then said to Qi Ning, "Ningning, help Amo upstairs first. I'll heat up the hangover soup for him to drink, otherwise he'll definitely have a headache first thing tomorrow morning."

"Okay," Qi Ning replied.

Yang Ma then turned around and went to the kitchen to heat up some hangover soup.

Qi Ning helped Pei Mo upstairs and escorted him back to his room.

She helped him lean against the headboard: "Don't sleep yet. Wait for Aunt Yang to bring over some hangover soup, then drink it before you sleep."

"Hmm." Pei Mo leaned against the bed, looking at Qi Ning.

Qi Ning sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and touched Pei Mo's forehead, and asked him, "Does your head hurt?"

"A little."

"Just bear with it for a bit, you'll feel better after drinking the hangover soup later."

Qi Ning muttered, "How much did you drink tonight? You don't usually have such a low alcohol tolerance."

Pei Mo did not answer.

Qi Ning wanted to say something more, but her phone rang again; this time it was a phone call.

Qi Ning took out her phone and saw that it was still Yuan Qin.

He probably called her directly because she hadn't replied to his message earlier.

Pei Mo also saw the name flashing on Qi Ning's phone screen, his eyes filled with an inscrutable expression.

Qi Ning didn't notice Pei Mo's strange behavior. She looked at her phone and thought for a moment, then decided that Yuan Qin might still be of some use for the time being, so she got up to answer the call.

"I'm going to take a call."

Unexpectedly, as she stood up with her phone in hand, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Pei Mo suddenly pulled her onto the bed, and then he covered her with his whole body.

Qi Ning screamed in fright, and her phone fell onto the carpet.

She looked at the person above her, her face filled with panic, and asked, "Pei Mo, what's wrong?"

Pei Mo looked her down at him, remaining silent for a moment.

"Pei Mo, you're drunk. Help me up, I need to answer the phone."

Qi Ning's phone was still ringing on the carpet.

She reached out and pushed against Pei Mo's chest.

But the next second, Pei Mo ignored the still-ringing phone and lowered his head to kiss Qi Ning's lips.

Qi Ning froze, her eyes widening in surprise.

Yang Ma heated up the hangover soup and hurriedly carried it upstairs.

She arrived at Pei Mo's room door, intending to push the door open and go in.

To her surprise, as soon as Yang Ma pushed the door open a crack, she saw a scene that shocked her.

On the large bed in the room, Pei Mo pinned Qi Ning down, and the two were kissing.

Yang Ma's hand trembled, and she almost spilled the hangover soup she was holding.

She paused for a moment, then realized what was happening and carefully backed out, gently closing the door behind her.

Yang Ma glanced at the tightly closed room door and quickly carried the hangover soup downstairs.

The two people in the room were so engrossed in their kiss that they didn't even notice when the cell phone on the carpet stopped ringing.

However, they noticed when Yang Ma appeared at the door. Qi Ning wanted to remind Pei Mo, but Pei Mo pressed her down again.

Pei Mo kissed Qi Ning until her face turned red, and his own ears also turned bright red.

Unbeknownst to him, Pei Mo's hand reached towards Qi Ning's collar.

Qi Ning seemed to suddenly wake up; she grabbed Pei Mo's hand, stopping him from making any further moves.

"Pei Mo..." she turned her face slightly and called out indistinctly.

Pei Mo stopped what he was doing and looked down at Qi Ning.

Qi Ning's chest heaved; she had almost lost her breath.

After a pause, Qi Ning looked into his eyes and asked him doubtfully, "Pei Mo, are you really drunk?"

Pei Mo paused for a moment, then replied honestly, "No."

"Oh."

Qi Ning responded and released her grip on Pei Mo's hand.

Then she slowly closed her eyes.

Qi Ning lay on the bed, her long hair loose, her face flushed, but she obediently closed her eyes.

Pei Mo understood.

Therefore, if you are really drunk, you can't continue.

If one is not drunk and is in a sober state, can the process continue?

Pei Mo tentatively lowered his head and kissed Qi Ning again, and she indeed did not resist this time.

Pei Mo kissed her deeper, and Qi Ning reached out and hooked her arms around his neck...

Around 10 a.m. the next day, the sun shone through the glass window onto the bed.

Pei Mo was awakened by the blinding light. He opened his eyes, dazed for a moment, and then remembered what had happened last night.

The next second, someone squirted in his arms.

Qi Ning poked half her head out from under the covers, revealing her eyes, and met Pei Mo's gaze.

"woke up?"

"Yes...yes, I'm awake," Qi Ning replied sheepishly.

Last night was indeed a bit unexpected for Qi Ning. She thought she would have to provoke him a little more before Pei Mo would react.

Who knew, it just happened like that all of a sudden.

Yuan Qin is no longer of any use.

Speaking of Yuan Qin, her phone rang twice last night, and then Pei Mo picked it up and turned it off.

Pei Mo smiled slightly as he reached out and stroked Qi Ning's messy hair: "Get up now that you're awake, let's go have breakfast."

"my clothes……"

The dress Qi Ning wore last night is now incomplete and can no longer be worn.

"Wait for me."

Pei Mo quickly got up, put on his clothes, and left the room.

Not long after, he went to Qi Ning's room and brought her a clean set of clothes.

He was afraid Qi Ning would feel embarrassed, so he handed the clothes to her and turned around, saying, "You can change."

Qi Ning watched Pei Mo's retreating figure, a slight smile playing on her lips, before changing her clothes.

She had just changed her clothes when she suddenly remembered something and took a deep breath.

"What's wrong?" Pei Mo turned around when he heard the noise.

"Aunt Yang, she..."

Last night, Aunt Yang said she would come up and bring some hangover soup. It's true what they say, male beauty can be a trap; Qi Ning almost forgot about it.

Pei Mo then realized what Qi Ning was worried about, but he remained calm: "It's alright, she should know by now."
