Chapter 81: 081 He makes you divorce me
Translator: 549690339
MO Xiuchen’s eyes darken for a moment as he purses his lips in deep thought.
The more he thought, the stranger it seemed!
“Xiuchen, should we continue investigating?”
Unable to hear his voice, Qin Mu asked for his opinion.
Wen Ran’s background, it seemed, had been deliberately concealed by Wen Hongrui years ago. It was not something they could unearth easily.
“No need, come back for now.”
MO Xiuchen hung up the phone and turned around only to find Wen Jin looking at him. His eyes seemed to shimmer with a profound depth, from several steps away, he met Wen Jin’s gaze and said, “I didn’t finish what I was saying earlier. ”
Wen Jin stared at him sharply, waiting for him to continue.
“When I first saw Wen Ran at the banquet, I had a strange feeling, thinking she resembled the little girl who helped me when I was kidnapped all those years ago. Without her help, I would have died back then.”
“Young Master MO, you’re not been delirious, are you? When were you kidnapped and how could my sister who has never met you, be your savior?” Wen Jin was startled, interrupting MO Xiuchen’s words coldly.
MO Xiuchen narrowed his sharp eyes and a cryptic smile appeared on his lips,
“Really? But I heard a rumor that Wen Ran is not your biological sister.”
At these words, Wen Jin’s face drastically changed. Propping himself upright against his pillow, despite the pain of his wound, he stared at MO Xiuchen with sharply resolute eyes, “Don’t talk nonsense! Ranran is my full sister, same father, same mother.”
MO Xiuchen raised an eyebrow in indifferent amusement, “Is that so? If Wen Ran is your full sister, why are you, as her brother, attempting to break up her marriage at every turn?”
The pain from his injuries paled Wen Jin’s face. His forehead, covered in bandages, began to bead with sweat. His shock was difficult to overcome. MO Xiuchen claimed everything to be rumors, but he knew it wasn’t as simple as that.
No one knew about his sister’s origins, so there could be no rumors.
Unless, he had investigated!
He must have a purpose for investigating his sister …
“You don’t look too good. Is your wound hurting again? I’ll go get a doctor to check on you.”
Despite not being pleased with Wen Jin’s earlier suggestion, upon seeing his pale face and forehead sheened in sweat, MO Xiuchen asked out of concern.
“Don’t worry, I won’t die!”
Wen Jin said gritting his teeth, not only he would survive, but he would also recover in the shortest time possible. He would protect his sister and not let anyone hurt her.
“Regardless of whether you believe me or not, I have no ill intentions towards
Wen Ran and won’t let her go for any reason.”
MO Xiuchen left these indifferent words and headed towards the door.
Wen Jin’s gaze shifted as he watched MO Xiuchen leave. His lips pressed thin.
Two minutes later, MO Xiuchen returned to the ward with a doctor for Wen Jin’s check-up.
After confirming that Wen Jin was okay, he let the doctor leave the ward.
“You just woke up a few days ago, don’t stress yourself too much. Otherwise, you’ll end up in a coma again and Wen Ran will cry for you every day.”
MO Xiuchen’s indifferent words lacked empathy. Apparently, Wen Jin had grown accustomed to his tone and no longer allowed his emotions to fluctuate because of him.
He considered for a moment and said solemnly, “Regardless of where you heard what you said earlier, I hope you will not spread it. I won’t be able to return to the company for a short period. If word gets to the wrong people, it might hurt Ranran.”
MO Xiuchen met his probing gaze calmly, answering unhurriedly, “Wen Ran is my wife, of course, I will protect her.”
What he implied was, as long as Wen Jin didn’t make any wrong moves, he would forever keep their secret. If Wen Jin intended to make Wen Ran divorce him, he couldn’t guarantee…
Wen Jin was angered but until he was sure about how much MO Xiuchen really knew, he didn’t dare to confront him openly. Instead, he snorted coldly, looked away, and ignored him.
At 5:30, when Wen Ran got off from work, she saw MO Xiuchen waiting for her at the factory entrance.
The sunset shone on his tall and slender figure, one side of his face basked in golden light, the other shrouded in shadows. His already stunning features were even more distinct. Seeing her, his thin lips slightly curved up into a charming and seductive smile.
“Have you been waiting long?”
Despite seeing his smile countless times, she still couldn’t help but feel her heart racing each time.
“No, I’ve just arrived a moment ago. Let’s go!”
MO Xiuchen opened the car door, Wen Ran flashed him a smile before bending to get into the car.
“I just came back from the hospital so you don’t need to visit your brother again.”
Once she got into the car, MO Xiuchen turned slightly towards Wen Ran and gently told her.
Wen Ran looked at him in astonishment, “You were just at the hospital? Did my brother ask for you?”
“Why do you think so?”
MO Xiuchen’s eyes shone with amusement at her question.
Wen Ran couldn’t discern any clues from his expression. She pressed her lips together and said softly, “The night my brother woke up, he asked about our situation. He said he’d rather the company go bankrupt than… MO Xiuchen, what did my brother say to you?”
“If he asks you to divorce me, will you listen to him?”
The smile in MO Xiuchen’s eyes disappeared, and his face grew serious. Gazing deeply at her, he asked, word for word.
For some reason, he wanted to hear her thoughts, to hear the answer she would give. Would she keep her promise, or with her brother back, would she be eager to get rid of him?
Wen Ran’s eyes widened suddenly, her voice shaky with panic, “Did my brother suggest that we should divorce?”
As soon as she spoke, it seemed she remembered something. She shook her head subconsciously, explaining, “My brother only thinks so because he cares about me too much. Rest assured, I’ve said before that unless you propose divorce, we’ll always be husband and wife. I won’t go back on my words. I’ll go to the hospital now and explain to my brother.” After saying this, she turned to open the car door.
“There’s no need!”
The deep voice of MO Xiuchen rang in her ears. A strong hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, MO Xiuchen’s forceful pull caused her to turn and look into
his deep, calm eyes.
The corner of MO Xiuchen’s lips tightened subtly, looking into her eyes he said in a deep voice, “I’ve already rejected him. For a while, he won’t bring up this matter again.”
Wen Ran blinked in confusion. She knew her brother well, once he made up his mind, he wouldn’t change it easily. How could he drop the idea of having her divorce MO Xiuchen so easily?
What exactly did they talk about?
MO Xiuchen’s gaze shifted from her clear eyes to her slightly pursed red lips. An inexplicable ripple stirred in his heart. The Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat and suddenly, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her lips.
Before Wen Ran could react, with her thoughts still on his words, she felt the warmth on her lips. A familiar masculine aroma filled her nostrils.. Her heart missed a beat!
