Wei Zilin did not say that the Wei family did not judge others by their statuses. After all, there was still his father. He could not lie to Xu Moyan’s parents, so he just changed the way he phrased it.

As he expected, once Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying heard that even an orphan like Wei Ran could be accepted by the Wei family, they assumed that the Wei family truly did not care about such things. With that, they felt a little more relieved.

Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying were completely taken in, but Xu Moyan saw through Wei Zilin’s little tricks, so she could not help but give him a glare.

Wei Zilin felt slightly guilty as well, so he secretly flashed her a smile to placate her.

However, the way they stealthily exchanged looks did not escape Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying’s notice. The parents simply assumed that the couple was close.

Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying were indeed quite satisfied with Wei Zilin. Setting aside his external assets, he was mature, steady, and he really seemed to love and treasure Xu Moyan with all his heart.

That was not something they would believe if he just told them, but it shone through in all the small details.

Xu Qingrui was a typical man, so he was not so aware of these things, but Li Lanying noticed every little thing.

Xu Moyan had poured tea for the three of them, but when she finally wanted to pour some for herself, Wei Zilin stopped her and poured her some hot water instead.

“Let it cool for a moment before you drink it. Green tea is cooling, and your time of the month is almost here, so you shouldn’t drink it,” Wei Zilin said.

He was more careful with her than even Li Lanying. Back when Tian Yuwen was around, Xu Moyan had drunk green tea too, but Li Lanying never considered the implications, nor did she stop her daughter from drinking it.

Xu Moyan was never really fond of green tea to begin with. She would drink it if everyone else did, but she could not taste any difference in its quality. That was why she did not really mind that she could not drink it now.

It was the same when they ate fruits. Xu Moyan wanted to pick up a piece of mango with her fork, but Wei Zilin gave her a pointed look, and she had no choice but to pull her hand back, aiming for another fruit instead.

That was because mangoes were cooling too.

The last time when Xu Moyan stayed at Wei Yang Garden, she just happened to have her period. That night, it hurt so much that she was practically rolling on the bed, and she wept particularly pitifully.

Painkillers were not exactly harmless, but seeing how much pain she was in, Wei Zilin could not stand to watch her suffer any longer. That was why he reluctantly let her take a pill.

The painkiller had pretty strong effects as it was, but even after Xu Moyan took it, it only reduced the pain to tolerable levels. Her stomach still throbbed with a dull ache that made her want to stay in bed.

They did not have any hot water bottles in the house, so Wei Zilin lent her his hand to warm her stomach with. She always thought his palm was scorchingly hot, but when her stomach was hurting, his body temperature felt just right.

He had placed his hand on her stomach, massaging it rhythmically, and that eased her discomfort considerably. On the other hand, it tired Wei Zilin out. It was exhausting enough that he had to maintain the same position for a long time, but he had to keep massaging her too.

Xu Moyan’s heart ached for him, so she said she was feeling better already, but Wei Zilin did not believe her. He just kept rubbing her stomach, and though he stopped for a rest every so often, he still kept his palm plastered against her stomach.

Even when his warmth and caress gradually lulled her to sleep, her eyelids falling to a slow close, Wei Zilin was still holding, his palm never leaving her body.

Nevertheless, after witnessing how badly she suffered from period pains, Wei Zilin had been keeping a constant eye on her eating habits. He had even called Chu Zhaoyang about it, contacting doctors from Chu Tian Hospital and noting down all the necessary precautions. He even had a list of the food and traditional Chinese medicines that could help warm her up.

These things could not be rushed. Her health had to be supplemented over time, and it took patience.

Wei Zilin counted the days, and he even downloaded a period calendar app on his phone. Just imagine, a grown man like him had such an app on his phone, and he even recorded Xu Moyan’s period every month, counting the days until her next cycle and helping her watch her diet.

The more Li Lanying saw of him, the more satisfied she felt.

She knew what her daughter was like. The girl was a glutton, and there was no stopping her from eating good food. Although she knew she would suffer from period pains, she would still look at her mother pitifully when she wanted to eat something. Li Lanying was soft-hearted, so she did not crack down on Xu Moyan’s whims.

Now, however, Wei Zilin had Xu Moyan under his thumb. As her mother, Li Lanying was not unhappy in the slightest, because she knew Wei Zilin was doing this for Xu Moyan’s own good.

When they ate dinner that night, most of the food on the table was seafood. Wei Zilin peeled the shells off and dipped the food into the sauces for Xu Moyan as though it was the most natural thing to do, with an air of familiarity that said he had done it countless times before.

In just that one afternoon, Wei Zilin had completely won Xu Qingrui and Li Lanying over. Their earlier worries were utterly forgotten.

Wei Zilin had been worried that they would not have enough time, and Xu Moyan’s parents might not understand him well enough.

In the end, however, he barely needed any time at all. Xu Moyan did not know how to describe what she was feeling right now.

At first, Xu Qingrui had planned to get Wei Zilin drunk, but somehow he and his wife had such great impressions of Wei Zilin that now he could not bear to get Wei Zilin drunk anymore. As a result, they chatted more and drank less.

Later that night, Wei Zilin mentioned that he should leave and stay the night at a hotel nearby.

By now, Li Lanying no longer considered Wei Zilin an outsider. In fact, she was so fond of him that it was almost as though Wei Zilin was her own son.

That was why she hurriedly said, “We’re all a family here, so why would you go to a hotel? Just stay in Moyan’s room.”

Wei Zilin’s expression did not change, but inwardly his heart filled with a little anticipation and some rather impure intentions.

“If I stay in Moyan’s room, where will she sleep?” Wei Zilin said straight-facedly.

Inside, however, he was hoping that Li Lanying would let them sleep together since she knew that they were already a couple.

It was true that Li Lanying loved him as a son, and she knew perfectly well that there was nothing she could do about their relationship while they were in B City. After all, all children had their own opinions once they grew up.

Unfortunately for Wei Zilin, this was her home, so there was still no way Li Lanying, a mother, could possibly allow her daughter to sleep in the same room as her boyfriend.

Hence, Li Lanying said, “It’s fine, Moyan can just sleep in the living room.”

Xu Moyan, “...”

Wei Zilin, “...”

Since they could not sleep in the same room, Wei Zilin could not bear to have Xu Moyan sleep in the living room.

Li Lanying would not let him stay at a hotel, either, so Wei Zilin had to say, “Why don’t I take the living room instead?”

He clearly cared deeply for Xu Moyan, and Li Lanying was more than satisfied with that. In the end, however, she still made Xu Moyan sleep in the living room.

Wei Zilin took his luggage into Xu Moyan’s room. Although Li Lanying did not let them sleep in the same room at night, she did not stop them from entering the room together now.

Wei Zilin looked around Xu Moyan’s room. It was not very big, and it was very clearly a girl’s abode.

Since Xu Moyan had gone to college in B City and stayed to work there after graduating, her bedroom had not been renovated or changed in any way. It looked just like it did when she was in high school.

Her bookshelves were stuffed full of books, ranging from comics to classics. Her textbooks, revision books, and activity books from her schooling days had long since been sold off.

Her desk looked simple enough, and it was not expensive either. There was a lamp on it and some bookends next to that, loosely propping up a few books and magazines.

Wei Zilin picked up a book. It was clear that Xu Moyan had not finished reading it since there was even a bookmark amongst its pages. It was a mystery novel, The Tokyo Zodiac Murders.

Xu Moyan saw that he had it, so she said, “I saw it at the airport bookstore last year when I came home for the new year. I bought a copy and brought it home to kill some time.”

Wei Zilin nodded and said, “I read it before too. Do you want to know who the killer is?”

Xu Moyan, “...”

With a chuckle, Wei Zilin put the book back. His laughter reverberated in his throat, and Xu Moyan’s face and ears reddened at the sound. Before she knew it, Wei Zilin had pulled her into his arms.

Xu Moyan punched him lightly without using an ounce of her real strength.

“I think my mom lost to your voice too.” Xu Moyan gave him a little shove, but it did not work. This was still her house, after all, and she was worried that Li Lanying would randomly walk in at some point. It would not be good if they got caught.

However, Wei Zilin did not look worried in the slightest.

He said he was worried before, but there was no trace of that concern now.

“That’s perfect. I should talk to Mom more and make her give me her daughter before she even knows what’s happening,” said Wei Zilin with a low chuckle. He lowered his head and gave Xu Moyan a kiss.

Her parents were still outside, so Xu Moyan’s heart pounded nervously. She wanted him to let go, but then he said, “I missed you.”

Those three simple words immediately defeated Xu Moyan’s will to fight.

She gave up on protesting and stayed in Wei Zilin’s embrace while the hot and intense kisses rained down on her.

Wei Zilin tilted to the side and pinned Xu Moyan to the bed. Xu Moyan’s bed was still only a single, so half of their calves were hanging off the side of the bed. The two of them were stacked on top of it, which made it seem all the more packed. As a result, the two of them were pressed tightly against each other too.

Wei Zilin could not really do anything to Xu Moyan here either. If they carried on like this, he would be the one suffering to suppress his desires.

He took a deep and ragged breath before he finally released Xu Moyan, his expression taut.

The two of them sat next to each on the side of the bed, recollecting their composure.

Wei Zilin undid two of his buttons and turned his head to look at Xu Moyan, saying suddenly, “I’ll wait until we get back.”

His voice was tight and hoarse, like a string about to break. His black eyes shone with a dark determination.

Xu Moyan choked slightly. What... was he waiting to do when they got back?

When she looked at Wei Zilin now, she realized that his gaze on her was like that of a butcher sharpening his knife, while she was his lamb to the slaughter.
