Translator: 549690339
Wen Ran, with reddened eyes, stubbornly said, “I hope my brother wakes up soon, but I don’t want him to worry.”
MO Xiuchen held her gaze for a moment, frowning, before he sneered, “Wen Ran, you truly don’t know what’s best for you.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Wen Ran stood stiffly at the door of the hospital room, watching his cold departing figure. Her lips pressed together tightly, silent.
Returning to the room, Wen Ran sat in front of the sickbed. As she watched her ‘sleeping’ brother, sadness spread from her heart. Clutching Wen Jin’s hand like she did earlier, she choked out, “Brother, I’m sorry!”
Her brother had shielded her with his body, but she hadn’t been able to save their parents from the car. She had watched as the car and they had turned into ashes…
How could she let her comatose brother know such a cruel thing?
If possible, she wished it was all a dream. In this dream, she still had her parents, and her brother was healthy.
When Doctor Gu returned to his office from the sickroom, the first thing he noticed was the heavy atmosphere. His gaze fell on a man sitting on the couch with a gloomy expression. Confused, he strode to front of him, asking inquisitively, “What’s wrong? You look like someone owes you millions.”
MO Xiuchen glanced at him, then dropped his gaze, his lips a cold, straight line. Noting his friend’s odd demeanor, Doctor Gu tried again, “Young Master MO, what’s going on with you?”
“I suspect Wen Ran is not the biological daughter of the Wen family.”
MO Xiuchen stated it emotionlessly. Hearing this, Doctor Gu was shocked, his dark eyes widening in surprise. “How is that possible? Wen Hongrui and his wife loved Wen Ran dearly when they were alive, and Wen Jin shielded her with his body in the face of danger. She’s not their daughter?”
Doctor Gu frowned, shaking his head, “That’s not right, how do you know?” “Ah Mu is currently in F City, Wen Hongrui’s hometown before his death.” “Is that the reason for your gloomy face?”
Doctor Gu stared intently at MO Xiuchen’s icy face, trying to make sense of his reaction. Even if Wen Ran wasn’t the biological daughter of the Wen family, there was no need for him to look this terrible.
“I just visited the hospital room and told Wen Jin one unpleasant secret. Wen Ran dared to scold me.”
MO Xiuchen responded coldly. That was the reason for his darkened face. Upon remembering the investigation results Ah Mu had given him over the phone, he couldn’t help but suspect that Wen Ran was not Wen Hongrui’s biological daughter or Wen Jin’s biological sister.
Just now, when he saw Wen Ran crying for Wen Jin, he felt discomfort in his heart and ended up saying those words. Of course, he felt he was helping Wen Ran by letting Wen Jin know the truth as soon as possible this way.
Doctor Gu stared at MO Xiuchen in disbelief before bursting out laughing after a moment, leaving MO Xiuchen flustered. “What are you laughing at?”
Doctor Gu couldn’t stop laughing as he pulled out his phone and showed him, “MO Xiuchen, take a look at this. No matter how I see it, you look like a man scorned. Wen Ran scolded you? Haha, it’s really too funny!”
Glaring at Doctor Gu, MO Xiuchen snatched his phone and flung it on the coffee table, sternly saying, “Wen Hongrui’s daughter ‘Wen Ran’ had a serious sickness when she was six. However, the little girl was not the ‘Wen Ran’ we know now…”
“Wait, I’m getting more confused the more I hear. Wen Ran was sick when she was six but how does that mean the current Wen Ran is different? And why were you investigating her?”
Doctor Gu was more confused than ever.
MO Xiuchen pursed his lips, “The other night, she told me that she also had a severe sickness when she was six and lost all her previous memories. This… is similar to Cheng Jia.”
“So, you investigated her past?”
“Yes. Haven’t you been asking why I involved an innocent person, why I hurt Wen Ran? Actually, I met her once three months ago. I had a strange feeling about her. So, I asked Ah Mu to investigate.”
“A strange feeling? What do you mean, Xiuchen? Don’t tell me you think Wen Ran is the little girl who saved you years ago!”
Doctor Gu quickly guessed MO Xiuchen’s thoughts, thanks to their years of friendship. However, he found the idea ridiculous, muttering to himself, “How is that possible.”
The most absurd thing was that every time he saw Wen Ran, he could not help but feel compassion for her, wanting to treat her well.
MO Xiuchen gave a self-deprecating smile, “I also find it ridiculous. How could I feel such a familiar feeling for a girl I’ve only met once? Even if the Wen family hadn’t had an accident, she couldn’t have been with MO Zixuan.” “So, the situation with Zixuan and Zhou Lin, is that your doing?
Doctor Gu moved to the side, watching MO Xiuchen suspiciously, only to be met with a cold stare. “No, I just happened to know about it!”
Doctor Gu listened with confusion, just as he was about to ask something else, the office door was suddenly pushed open. A nurse’s excited and urgent voice came from the door, “Doctor Gu, the patient in bed number 56 moved their finger!”
“Bed number 56’s patient?”
Doctor Gu and MO Xiuchen both stood up from the couch simultaneously, echoing the question in disbelief.
The nurse nodded, ‘Yes, it’s Wen Jin in bed number 56. He moved his hand just now. His sister is with him in the ward. Doctor Gu, please come quickly!” Doctor Gu shot a glance at MO Xiuchen, saying, “I’ll go immediately.”
“Xiuchen, are you going too?”
Doctor Gu turned back to ask MO Xiuchen. His face held a peculiar expression, as if he was battling with certain thoughts.
“Yes, of course!”
MO Xiuchen answered somewhat curtly, but inside there was a touch of smug satisfaction. He thought about how Wen Ran would apologize to him. Wen Jin wouldn’t have been able to regain consciousness so fast if it hadn’t been for the things he’d said to provoke him..
