MO Xiuchen’s speculation was quickly confirmed.
That night, Zhou Lin called him to let him know that MO Zixuan had honestly forgotten about Wen Ran.
In the master bedroom, bathed in soft light, MO Xiuchen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, facing the large bed. He looked affectionately at the woman sleeping on the bed, and his heart was filled with warmth.
Zhou Lin’s voice came over the phone, “Young Master MO, I’ve told you everything that I know.”
MO Xiuchen’s profound gaze was filled with tenderness, but the words that came out from his lips were cool and clear. “Mmm. I’ll handle your visa, as per our previous agreement. Within, a week at the most, Xiao Wenqing won’t be able to bother you once you leave the country.”
“Thank you, Young Master Mo.”
MO Xiuchen responded indifferently and was about to hang up when Zhou Lin hesitantly said, “Young Master MO, can I ask you one more thing?”
“What is it?”
MO Xiuchen’s eyebrows knitted slightly together. If Zhou Lin didn’t know the Wen Ran’s background and wasn’t threatened by Xiao Wenqing, he would not have helped her at all.
“Young Master MO, I know you hate Xiao Wenqing and MO Zixuan. No matter how you deal with Xiao Wenqing in the end, please spare MO Zixuan’s life, okay?”
A chill flashed in MO Xiuchen’s eyes, and he said indifferently, “That will depend on how you behave.”
“Don’t worry, Young Master Mo. I will keep my promise.”
Zhou Lin hurriedly promised. Even if MO Zixuan didn’t love her, or even hated her, she couldn’t help but harbor feelings for him.
Moreover, he was the father of the child in her belly. She still hoped that in the end, he would come back to her.
Xiao Wenqing was increasingly satisfied with MO Zixuan forgetting Wen Ran.
Although he was not as decisive and ruthless as MO Xiuchen, he was not dull either. Previously, he was just unwilling to partake in the things his mother did.
Now, MO Xiuchen had replaced Xiao Wenqing’s people, threatening his position and interests. With love gone from his heart, it seemed all his energy could only be devoted to the pursuit of money and power.
Under Xiao Wenqing’s instigation, he began to stand against MO Xiuchen.
In the President’s Office, MO Xiuchen looked at Qin Mu who had just entered. He asked before Qin Mu could even speak, “What about it, did you find any clues?”
Qin Mu shook his head, appearing both serious and somewhat angry, “There aren’t any clues at all. Even that clinic has disappeared into thin air.”
“And the surveillance cameras nearby?”
MO Xiuchen’s expression darkened a bit, a chill flashed through his eyes. Xiao Wenqing rarely left G City. To find a capable hypnotist, who also managed to do it without anyone noticing, she couldn’t have done it alone.
“There’s also another piece of bad news.”
Qin Mu paused, then said, “Someone in F City was investigating the Wen family. Xia Wenqing couldn’t get any news from Zhou Lin, and MO Zixuan had forgotten everything about Wen Ran. She had no choice but to send someone to investigate.”
A thin layer of frost appeared on MO Xiuchen’s features. “Even if she finds out about Ranran’s background, it’s not important. What’s most crucial is that they cannot find out that Ranran is that little girl from back then.”
Back then, based on Cheng Jia’s words and Wen Jin’s explanations, it could be guessed that Xiao Wenqing was definitely the one who had poisoned Wen Ran.
He didn’t know whether she hated Wen Ran for saving him, or if she had conspired with Fu Jingyi to take Wen Ran’s life.
No matter what, he didn’t want Xiao Wenqing to find out about the past. Because if she did, Wen Ran would too.
“Go to the hospital and look for Wen Jin. He has already handled this matter once before. See if there’s anything he missed.”
“Can’t I just call him?”
Qin Mu asked, puzzled.
MO Xiuchen shook his head, a hint of gloom in his voice, “It’s about his family affairs, it’s better if you go in person. Besides, the company doesn’t have anything pressing this afternoon, just go.”
“Alright then.”
Qin Mu nodded then left the office to go to the hospital. He knew MO Xiuchen cared deeply for Wen Ran and took every matter concerning her seriously. Even if it’s something that can be easily cleared over a phone call, he would insist on going to the hospital himself.
Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory
Wen Ran looked at Zhou Lin sitting across from her and asked in surprise,
“Where are you going after leaving G City?”
Zhou Lin smiled and casually stroked her belly, saying softly, “To a city where no one knows me. I want to forget everything here.”
Her voice paused, the smile disappeared from her face and a look of apology appeared in her eyes. She subsequently spoke in a tone loaded with guilt, “Ranran, I know that nothing I say can bring your parents back. But I still want to apologize to you.”
Wen Ran’s face changed slightly at the mention of her deceased parents, how could she not hate Zhou Mingfu?
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit tense.
After being silent for a moment, Zhou Lin took out a notebook from her bag and handed it to Wen Ran, “Ranran, this is something I found in my dad’s drawer when I was cleaning the room. He used to jot down things in it. Even though the contents can’t be used as evidence, it should help somewhat.” Wen Ran blinked in confusion, watching her.
Zhou Lin slightly pursed her lips, “In the beginning, my dad made many mistakes, which your brother found out and gathered evidence for. His initial intentions were just to get the evidence back. However, under the instigation and manipulation of others, and with their help, they were able to stage that car accident. The police still haven’t solved the case.”
Wen Ran’s expression cooled and her lips tightened into a thin line as she tried to suppress the emotions welling up in her heart. She reached out and took the notebook.
After flipping through a few pages, Wen Ran looked up again to meet Zhou
Lin’s gaze head-on, a sharpness in her eyes, “Did you tear some of them?”
Zhou Lin looked slightly awkward, and ducked her rigid gaze. Lowering her head, she mumbled, “Ranran, the things I tore were about me. It shouldn’t affect your investigation into the car accident.”
Wen Ran stared at Zhou Lin’s bowed head. Her mind spun, guessing that the parts Zhou Lin had torn off definitely involved her. Zhou Mingfu was dead, and even if he was guilty, it wouldn’t matter anymore. However, Zhou Lin was different. She did not want to involve herself.
“Thank you for giving this to me.”
Wen Ran didn’t inquire further. Zhou Mingfu was dead and Zhou Lin was just a minor accomplice at most. If someone really did instruct Zhou Mingfu, then that person behind the scenes would be the most important.
“I need to go to the hospital for another check-up. If everything is fine, I will leave G City in two days.”
“I have some time now, I can go with you!”
Wen Ran stood up, took the notebook and went back to her desk. Seeing how quick Wen Ran was to accompany her, Zhou Lin looked surprised and somewhat touched, “Ranran, I can go by myself.”
Ignoring her protest, Wen Ran said lightly, “Let’s go. It’s inconvenient for you to take a taxi by yourself..”
