always the best. This is because men often think they deserve better when they don’t actually love someone deeply. Nimoz isn’t an exception to this either. Han Bi, don't think that Nimoz still has fee...The Substitute Ex-Wife of the CEO Volume Completion 721

Although it's a female protagonist play, the male lead's part is equally important. An international superstar can't just stand there; many viewers are here for him. Therefore, his and Warmth's relationship receives special emphasis. However, Mo Xiaobai falls short in this regard. He performs better than Warmth at getting her into character quickly, but when it comes to deeper emotional expressions, he lacks the expressive quality that Warmth has. His eyes do not convey emotions as well as hers, making his performance less outstanding in such a sci-fi film.

Every actor has their weaknesses; for Mo Xiaobai, it's expressing emotion, while for Warmth, it is her strength.

Hearing Mo Yao praising him, Mo Xiaobai feels extremely pleased. Mo Yao doesn't say anything further and the two of them continue working and watching films until evening. After sweating profusely, Mo Yao definitely needs a bath but can't move, so Mo Xiaobai brings water and towels to help him clean up. Mo Yao declines, saying, "No need!"

Moxiaobai says, "Boss, you can’t move on your own, who’s going to bathe you Don't you smell how bad it is"

The smell of mixed blood and sweat悶在被子裡，確實有點重，Mo Yao's brows are tightly furrowed. What kind of torture is this if he lets Mo Xiaobai help him clean up

But at present, only Mo Xiaobai is by his side, and since he can't move, he certainly can’t just lie there. His body feels unclean, which slows down the healing process of his injuries; indeed, a bath is necessary.

However, he really doesn't want Mo Xiaobai to do this for him.

Moxiaoyao tries to do it himself but every movement tugs at his wounds. Unable to bear it any longer, Mo Xiaobai walks over and presses down on him, unfastening his clothes without hesitation. Mo Yao gives up resisting, allowing him to proceed.

There's no other choice.

Moxiaobai carefully cleans Mo Yao’s face and body; due to the pain, he sweats a lot, mixing it with blood traces, giving off a somewhat strong smell. However, it isn’t unpleasant because they are used to this scent and have long adapted to it.

Sweat and blood are not unfamiliar to them; in fact, they are quite familiar.

Mosai helped him clean his upper body and changed into a new set of pajamas. He had many pajama sets and feared that Mo Yao would catch a cold if he wore the same one again. After wiping him down, he immediately put on another clean one. Mo Yao thought that was it, but then Mosai brought in a basin of water, swiftly removing his pajama pants and undergarments. Mo Yao tried to remain calm, but his breathing became somewhat irregular. All he could do was close his eyes and avoid looking at Mosai's gaze.

The desire quivered slightly in the cold air. He felt a warm towel carefully wiping every inch of it, as if Mosai were meticulously attending to something delicate. Mosai thoroughly cleaned his body before finally dressing him in fresh clothes.

He did not open his eyes; doing so would reveal that Mosai's thick face had turned slightly red. He picked up the discarded pajamas and nearly fled into the bathroom, feeling deeply that bringing Mo Yao back home was a mistake.

Looking at himself in the mirror, he couldn't explain why he suddenly blushed moments ago. Both men's bodies were equally fit and handsome. There was nothing unique about his body compared to Mo Yao’s; helping him clean felt no different from taking a bath himself. He had always thought there was nothing wrong with it. Nevertheless, he unexpectedly lost composure and nearly revealed...

Mosai calmed the inexplicable restlessness in his heart, tidied up the bathroom, threw clothes into the washing machine, and took a shower. He was used to taking showers; only when extremely tired would he take a bath.

When he left the bathroom, Mo Yao had already fallen asleep with steady breathing. The movie had reached its conclusion, so Mosai turned off the TV and dimmed the bedroom lights before quietly leaving for his study.

He needed to start working now.

Mosai worked until two o'clock in the morning and rubbed his eyes tiredly. His apartment only had one room; where should he sleep tonight The couch He wouldn't be able to function well tomorrow if he slept on it with his long body. After a moment of hesitation, Mosai went back into the bedroom. His bed was a large double bed two meters wide, more than enough for two people to share comfortably. It didn’t make sense to sleep on the couch when there was such a comfortable bed available.

Mo Yao had been heavily injured and slept deeply; Mosai could come in unnoticed. But as soon as he got into bed, Mo Yao sensed his presence clearly and slightly opened his eyes—was Mosai going to share the bed with him The thought barely passed when Mosai claimed half of the blanket for himself. He still smelled fresh from a bath, an aroma that made Mo Yao's heart flutter softly; it was the scent he loved most on Mosai—the young, vibrant, and clean fragrance like sunshine on flowers, utterly captivating.

With this bed, he slept soundly wherever there was his scent. It felt as if every pore of his body relaxed and breathed comfortably. Unaware that Mo Yao had woken up, Mosai turned off the lights completely, plunging the room into darkness. With eyes closed, Mo Yao enjoyed the stillness of night along with the lingering fragrance from Mosai’s skin, but sleep eluded him.

Moxiao Bai had been busy all day and was quite exhausted, so he fell asleep early. Leaving Mo Yao alone to watch his peaceful sleeping face in the darkness. If they weren’t brothers, things might have been different. Perhaps Mo Yao wouldn't feel as anxious or hesitant. If they weren't brothers, Moxiao Bai would be less reserved and subconsciously place Mo Yao in a brotherly position rather than an older sibling’s role. Maybe their relationship could have had a different ending.

However, being brothers was also an excellent thing. They grew up together since childhood. Now, Moxiao Bai is a dazzling international superstar with irresistible charm and attractiveness. This mature, sexy, and charismatic Moxiao Bai makes Mo Yao feel fortunate for having been by his side throughout his growth. He hasn’t missed any version of the dynamic Moxiao Bai—whether playful, innocent, shrewd, carefree, or sexy—every stage of their shared life was among the most beautiful and vibrant periods in their lives.

Does this not make it less regrettable

Mos Yao thought about many things that night. His mind was agitated for a long time until almost dawn when he finally fell asleep. The biological clock is an odd thing; it always wakes you up accurately in the morning, Mo Yao’s being at 5 AM, same as Moxiao Bai's. This habit was formed during their training sessions where they would start every day at five to begin practice. So regardless of what time they went to bed, they would naturally wake up together around five. Moxiao Bai wanted Mo Yao to talk while he was still sleepy.

"Brother, go back to sleep for a bit. I'll call you when it's time to eat."

"You're getting up"

"Just lying here for a bit more, feeling sleepy." Moxiao Bai yawned, and Mo Yao hummed in acknowledgment as he fell back asleep. Moxiao Bai kept tossing and turning until nine before getting up to cook breakfast. At ten, Mo Yao was woken by him to get ready and eat breakfast, then lunch at twelve—living like a pig.

After lunch, with nothing better to do lying down, Mo Yao started watching movies again while Moxiao Bai gave him introductions. Of course, the narcissistic Moxiao Bai would introduce his own films to Mo Yao, making it incredibly humorous since Mo Yao had seen these films multiple times and could almost recite Moxiao Bai’s lines by heart.

Unaware of this, Moxiao Bai lay on the bed while handling business matters and sharing anecdotes from their filming days. His stories were amusing enough to lift Mo Yao's mood even though he didn't laugh out loud; Moxiao Bai could sense his positive feelings.

Mos Yao was quite content with this convalescent atmosphere, enjoying Moxiao Bai’s company in voice and scent. He felt the happiest and most comfortable these days. Suddenly, he wished his heart wound would take a bit longer to heal. If only he moved it more often, could that make it heal slower Mo Yao curled his lip at the thought, but given his character, such thoughts were mere musings, never to be acted upon.

"Are your hand injuries completely healed" Mo Yao couldn't resist asking when he saw Moxiao Bai unwrapping bandages.

Momo Xiaobai said, "My injury is minor. It's just a skin abrasion and hasn't affected my muscles or bones, so it heals quite fast."

Indeed, when Momo Xiaobai unwrapped the bandages, there was already significant improvement in his wound; only faint pink traces remained, healing at an unusually rapid pace. Momo Xiaobai felt rather proud of this and applied his scar removal cream immediately upon removing the bandages.

Momo Ya shook his head. As Momo Xiaobai was about to speak, the phone rang. Seeing it was Pike, he answered, "Hello, Pike, what's up Didn't I tell you not to bother me these days"

"You should take a break from caring for patients and walk around occasionally. Everyone is in Washington. Shall I come over to your place" Pike said. "I have several contracts and a script that need discussing."

"Let's talk about it later; I'm not in the mood now, so put it on hold."

"That won't do. You signed a contract with Kler earlier to shoot a film, and they're set to start production in a few days. If you don't show up, there will be gossip." Pike said. "You haven't forgotten about this, have you"

"I haven't."

"Good, then find time for me to come over and discuss it."

"Pike, do you not understand what I'm saying" Momo Xiaobai's voice immediately turned cold and stern, laced with displeasure and a hint of chilliness. Even through the phone, Pike didn't dare retort; he awkwardly explained, "If we breach the contract, they'll sue us, and we'd have to pay substantial compensation."

"So sue me, have I never faced a lawsuit"

Pike was left speechless. After hanging up, he thought it unwise to proceed alone. He decided instead to send Ji Bing with him on the trip to Momo Xiaobai's place; in Ji Bing’s presence, Momo Xiaobai wouldn't be angry.bout this precious golden egg, Ye Ningyuan sighed even more heavily.
