“Fine, as long as you return, I won’t blame myself.”
The voice of Wen Jin instantly voided of its melancholic emotions, coming across in a gentle and affectionate manner.
The siblings spoke a few more words before hanging up the phone. Wen Jin’s eyes, deep as ink, flashed a look of cold ruthlessness as he dialed another number.
“Hello, Young Master Wen, what can I do for you?”
The call was picked up after a few rings and a clear voice came through.
“Tell your friend, regardless of the method, he needs to make those people confess who instructed them to harm my sister. Also, come by the hospital in the morning if you have time.”
Wen Jin spoke with a cold tone, his handsome features hardened and a chilly air shrouding him.
“Okay, I’m on a task outside at the moment, I will come to see you at noon.”
F City, a hotel.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the love bites on Wen Ran’s neck with a suggestive gaze and asks teasingly, “Ranran, how many times did you and MO Xiuchen do it last night?”
Wen Ran felt uncomfortable under her gaze. Her question reminded Wen Ran of the events of the last night…
In the end, she fell asleep from exhaustion.
Noticing Wen Ran’s blushing face, Bai Xiaoxiao extended a finger and began to count, “Three, four, five… Oh my,”
Wen Ran shot her a glare, brushed away her extended finger, and changed the topic, “I have to return to G City today, I can’t go shopping with you. Are you staying here for a few more days, or are you going back with me?”
“Do not change the subject, answer my previous question first. How many times last night, how was MO Xiuchen’s skills? There were rumors before that he had impotence, Ranran, how did you cure his illness, was it the clothes I bought for you that worked?”
“Why do you have so many questions?”
Wen Ran rolled her eyes at her, thinking to herself ‘what kind of questions are these?’.
Bai Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes, stared tightly at Wen Ran’s blushing face and laughed, “Ranran, even if you don’t say so, I can guess…”
“Bai Xiaoxiao, have you no shame?”
Wen Ran was at her wits’ end with Bai Xiaoxiao’s antics. Previously, she wouldn’t feel anything when Bai Xiaoxiao made such comments. But now, after going through those events, each word she says reiterates those embarrassing scenes from last night in her head, she pretty much wanted to sew Bai Xiaoxiao’s mouth shut.
“What should I be ashamed of, I was just talking, did you do all of it?”
Bai Xiaoxiao shrugged, smirked, and added, “Now, finally, I don’t have to worry about you being a widow for life. Perhaps you and MO Xiuchen are destined for each other, he not only has no feelings for any other woman, he is also as cold as ice to any woman.”
“How is that possible!”
Wen Ran verbalized her disbelief, but her heart fluttered with a hint of joy. She didn’t know whether MO Xiuchen was indeed indifferent to other women, but his behavior towards her was quite considerate.
Bai Xiaoxiao snorted, “How is it impossible? Do you know how rude he was when I called you this morning, saying you were too tired, and forbade me from disturbing you. Just now, I ran into him in the hallway, and he wouldn’t let me see you. As if you were his private possession.”
“You are exaggerating.”
Wen Ran chuckled and was about to respond when the doorbell suddenly rang. Bai Xiaoxiao got up to answer it and returned shortly with a bag in hand, laughing, “MO Xiuchen is really considerate, even providing clothes for you, were the clothes you wore last night torn to shreds?”
She pulled a set of clothes from the bag, it was the most trendy style, even the underwear was prepared.
“Yesterday’s clothes got shredded by tree branches.”
Wen Ran explained in a nonchalant tone.
“You haven’t told me what happened last night. How did you get these injuries?
How did MO Xiuchen find you?”
Earlier, she had been too curious about MO Xiuchen’s prowess and had forgotten to ask Wen Ran how she got injured.
“I was drugged outside the bathroom and by the time I woke up, the car was heading up the mountain. When I got out of the car, I seized the opportunity to escape. I was chased to the edge of a cliff, when I had no choice, I jumped down.”
“You jumped off a cliff?”
Bai Xiaoxiao’s face changed dramatically.
No wonder Brother Jin was so anxious when he called this morning. She looked at Wen Ran’s bandaged arm. It looked like the bandage had been replaced not long ago, “How high was the cliff? How could you be so foolish?”
Wen Ran forced a smile, “Under those circumstances, I had no other choice. They gave me some pills, I was scared that I would…”
“Ranran, we must find the person who harmed you and tear him to pieces.”
Tears welled up in Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes. She suddenly pulled Wen Ran into a hug and spoke through gritted teeth.
How malicious must a person be to harm Ranran to such an extent, wanting to ruin her?
“Xiaoxiao, I’m okay now. Isn’t it said that when you escape from a great disaster, you’re bound for good luck? The car crash that took my mom and dad away, my brother protected me with his own body. I was forced to jump off the cliff last night, yet a tree and some vines saved me. It goes to show, I’m very lucky.”
“Yes, you’re very lucky. No one can harm you.”
A feeling of sadness that words couldn’t explain welled up in Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart. In just a short month, Wen Ran had experienced so much. As her best friend, Bai Xiaoxiao felt guilty for not being able to help during these critical moments.
“Okay, if you keep holding onto me like this, how am I supposed to get dressed?”
Wen Ran forced a smile, not wanting to maintain such a heavy atmosphere.
Bai Xiaoxiao had just let go when the ring of the mobile phone resonated. This time it was MO Xiuchen calling.
“He’s looking for you.”
Being considerate, Bai Xiaoxiao handed the phone directly to Wen Ran. Her beautiful face soon regained its bright smile.
Wen Ran pressed the answer key, her voice soft, “Hello!”
“I received a call from your brother earlier, I thought he would have had Bai Xiaoxiao wake you up. The clothes I sent you, do they fit?”
The sound of MO Xiuchen’s deep and gentle voice came through the phone. Wen Ran looked down at the clothes on the bed, murmuring a soft response. “I haven’t worn them yet, but they should fit.”
Her gaze landed on the underwear, causing her face to flush as her heart started to beat uncontrollably.
“I booked a flight for the afternoon, around two o’clock.”
“Xiaoxiao is also returning.”
Wen Ran glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao. Although Bai Xiaoxiao hadn’t given her an answer, Wen Ran figured that since they came together, she wouldn’t stay behind on her own.
“Okay!”
MO Xiuchen understood her meaning and responded warmly.
After a brief pause, he added, “Have some breakfast first, I’ll come to have lunch with you at noon.”
“No need, you go ahead with your work, Xiaoxiao will accompany me.”
Wen Ran refused his offer without hesitation. After being so intimate with him the previous night, she now found it embarrassing to face MO Xiuchen.
Besides the fear of being reminded of those embarrassing scenes when seeing him, her mind at the moment was in disarray, unable to decipher her own feelings.
It seemed that she was always affected by him, which made her lose her calm. Whether this was good or bad, Wen Ran wasn’t sure.
At the end of the line, MO Xiuchen fell silent for a moment before his voice, slightly lower than before, came through again, “Alright then, I will pick you up in the afternoon..”
