Translator: 549690339
The corner of Gu Kai’s mouth twitched. This guy, MO Xiuchen, was really loathsome every second.
“It seems you’ve got enough company with Ranran, so I won’t annoy you here any longer. I have to take Yuting to City B later, when you come back to G City in a few days, I’ll treat you to a drink.”
Having said that, he turned his head and persuaded Wen Ran, “Ranran, MO Xiuchen’s injuries aren’t that serious, don’t worry too much or spoil him. Let him do what he can himself. Why not go to City B with us, and then come back with me.”
Wen Ran just smiled and didn’t say anything.
MO Xiuchen shot him a glare, urging, “If you’re fine, you better leave quickly.
Ranran is here to take care of me, she’s obviously not going to leave with you. Ranran, see him out, he’s standing in the way here.”
Gu Kai frowned and scolded him in dissatisfaction, “Ungrateful!” before striding out of the ward.
Wen Ran chuckled, following Gu Kai out of the ward, and gently asked, “Older
Brother Gu, you’re leaving now?”
Gu Kai nodded, a warm smile on his handsome face. “I’m leaving now. I can’t be of help here. Although the woman who injured MO Xiuchen is under temporary detention, the matter hasn’t been resolved yet. You must be extra careful these days and don’t wander around alone.”
He was actually uneasy about her staying here, so he jokingly asked if she wanted to go to City B with him.
How could Wen Ran leave with him? She came to take care of MO Xiuchen.
However, despite knowing the outcome, Gu Kai still couldn’t help but ask.
“Older Brother Gu, thank you for your concern. I’ll be careful. As for Sister Ting, please explain to her that MO Xiuchen has a temper, so he might have been a bit rude to her. Ask her not to take it to heart.”
Wen Ran and Shen Yuting didn’t have much interaction, just a meal and a stroll together.
Even if she didn’t dislike Shen Yuting, she wasn’t overly fond of her at first sight either. The reason she was being so polite was one, because she didn’t feel any discomfort, and two, because of Gu Kai.
Gu Kai, being a wise man, of course understood.
He nodded with a smile, “Okay, I’ll talk to her when I have time. But don’t worry, she’s been used to MO Xiuchen’s coldness ever since she was young. I think it’s good that MO Xiuchen treats her this way.”
It’s better than giving her hope and then letting her down. Although Shen
Yuting was his cousin, Gu Kai agreed with his brother’s decisiveness.
“Ranran!”
Wen Ran and Gu Kai hadn’t spoken for long before MO Xiuchen’s voice came from the ward behind them. Gu Kai didn’t say anything more to her, urged her to hurry back to the ward to take care of MO Xiuchen, turned around, and strode away.
Seeing Gu Kai get into the elevator, Wen Ran turned back to the ward. MO Xiuchen, lying on the bed, had put down the newspaper and was watching her with intent eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
Wen Ran frowned, walked to the bed, and asked in bewilderment. Being stared at by him like this, she found it baffling.
MO Xiuchen smiled faintly, held her hand in his palm, and said softly, “I haven’t seen you for a few days. Let me have a good look at you to see whether you have been eating well at home or not. It seems like you’ve lost weight again.”
Wen Ran rolled her eyes at him. “Go to hell, how am I thinner? If anything, I’ve clearly gained weight.” “Is that so? Let me check.”
“MO Xiuchen, are you going rogue?”
Wen Ran yelped softly, dodging his teasing attempt and taking a step back.
“Ranran, I’m a patient. How can I check if you’ve gained weight if you stand so far away?”
Seeing how easily she got shy, blushing at his touch, MO Xiuchen couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
But as he laughed, he pulled on his abdominal wound, causing him to frown immediately.
Wen Ran was startled, quickly stepping forward, expressing her concern,
“Don’t move around, did you pull your wound?”
MO Xiuchen seized the opportunity to grab hold of her, bearing the pain and shaking his head. “It’s fine, the pain will pass in a moment. I didn’t move around. It was just when I laughed earlier that I pulled on the wound. Ranran, I’m a patient. I won’t be able to chase after you if you walk away.”
Seeing him wincing in pain, Wen Ran felt a pang in her heart. She forgot about him acting rogue just now and softly promised, “I’m not leaving. I’ll stay here and look after you.”
If Wen Ran hadn’t rushed from G City to take care of MO Xiuchen, he certainly wouldn’t have stayed in the hospital for so many days. But now, having a beautiful and gentle woman at his side taking meticulous care of him, MO Xiuchen didn’t want to be discharged.
He insisted on staying in the hospital for a week, leaving all the affairs in G City to Luo Haofeng and dumping all the investigations and troubles here in City C on Qin Mu.
A week later, when MO Xiuchen was discharged, Qin Mu had also resolved all the issues here.
When Luo Haofeng called to urge him to return, he said his return date was indefinite and told him to handle the group’s affairs on his own.
As a result, without the dashing Luo Haofeng, he was so worn out that he felt like a dog every day!
It was raining on the day they returned to G City.
The weather was very cold. Little Liu was holding two coats waiting outside security check. One for MO Xiuchen and one for Wen Ran. His mother, Nanny Zhang, had asked him to bring them, saying that Wen Ran hadn’t dressed warmly enough when she went to City C.
“Little Liu has become more considerate and caring.”
Qin Mu saw MO Xiuchen helping Wen Ran put on her coat before he put on his own and couldn’t help feeling a bit sour.
Little Liu smiled naively. “I didn’t know you were also not dressed warmly enougn. Otnerwlse, I would nave Drougnt my coat tor you.”
Qin Mu immediately shook his head. “I dare not wear yours. You smell like a woman. Have you been staying with Cheng Jia these days?”
He was not joking around with Little Liu. He indeed smelled the scent of the perfume that Cheng Jia used to wear on Little Liu. Like MO Xiuchen, he was also sensitive and remembered the scent he had smelt before.
MO Xiuchen’s gaze deepened. Holding Wen Ran’s hand, they walked towards the exit. He asked in a low voice, “Has Cheng Jia looked for you these days?”
Little Liu didn’t dare to hide anything and honestly answered, “Right before I left, Cheng Jia called me. She said she had accidentally overheard a conversation between Zhou Lin and Zhou Mingfu and found out that Zhou Mingfu was the killer of the young mistress’s parents.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Ran paused. MO Xiuchen and Qin Mu were also slightly surprised, their sharp eyes staring at Little Liu..
