FLASH MARRIAGE: HE IS A WIFE-PAMPERING ADDICT

Chapter 819: I believe in you

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes were deep as he watched her, while Gu Kai let out a haughty laugh, “Xiuchen, don’t bother explaining your past anymore, if Ranran didn’t trust you, she wouldn’t allow you near her. If you feel sorry for Ranran, just think about how you’re going to deal with Cheng Jia.”

“Ranran!”

Mo Xiuchen did not look at Gu Kai, as if he had not heard his words, his gaze remained tightly locked on Wen Ran, demanding a clear answer from her.

Ignoring the emotions inside her heart, a faint smile appeared on Wen Ran’s face as she softly said, “I trust you.”

Upon hearing her words, Mo Xiuchen’s lips immediately curled up, as if her “I trust you” mattered more to him than anything or anyone else.

An emotional tide rose in Wen Ran’s heart, unsure whether it was touched or pained she felt.

Yet, she once again realized that she couldn’t resist the man before her.

She didn’t know if this meant she was already breaking her vow, and thinking about it always made her feel conflicted and uneasy.

When lunch was halfway through, Wen Ran’s phone rang; it was Bai Xiaoxiao calling. Seeing the caller ID, she turned her head to look at the table they had just left and noticed that Bai Xiaoxiao and Meng Ke had already left without her realizing.

Picking up the phone and greeting the caller, Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice came through, “Ranran, I’ve gone home.”

“Xiaoxiao, where are you now? I’ll come with you,” Wen Ran asked calmly, glancing at Luo Haofeng.

“I’m at the parking lot. Aren’t you staying with Mo Xiuchen?” asked Bai Xiaoxiao.

“Wait for me!”

After finishing her words, Wen Ran hung up the phone. Seeing Mo Xiuchen furrowing his brows at her, she apologized with a smile, “You guys keep eating. I’m full already. I’m going downstairs to find Xiaoxiao and go home with her.”

“Ranran, give me a call when you get home,” Mo Xiuchen hesitated but ultimately did not stop her.

“Sure!”

Wen Ran agreed.

In the parking lot, Bai Xiaoxiao sat in the driver’s seat, a layer of subtle sorrow veiling her eyes, looking very different from her usual self.

Wen Ran opened the door and sat in the passenger seat, asking with concern, “Xiaoxiao, are you okay?”

Only then did Bai Xiaoxiao turn her head to meet Wen Ran’s concerned gaze, forcing a smile, “No, I really thought Mo Xiuchen wouldn’t let you go.”

“What about Meng Ke?” Instead of answering, Wen Ran asked in return.

“He left first.”

“Xiaoxiao, do you really plan to date Meng Ke?” Hesitating for a moment, Wen Ran still voiced the doubt in her heart. Meng Ke’s manner of speaking was decent, but he wasn’t the type Xiaoxiao liked, and he wasn’t suitable for her either.

“Mm, I plan to try and see how it goes.” The smile on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face didn’t reach her eyes, and the bits of sorrow in them were heart-wrenching.

Wen Ran pursed her lips and still ended up explaining for Luo Haofeng, “Xiaoxiao, that night, nothing happened in Qi Meiling’s guest room with Luo Haofeng.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression shifted, and a touch of bitterness appeared at the corners of her mouth, “Ranran, regardless of whether he did anything with Qi Meiling, it’s over between him and me. I don’t want to be entangled anymore.”

Just now, she hadn’t meant to upset him on purpose.

She also knew that Luo Haofeng wouldn’t do anything with Qi Meiling, not in the short term, at least.

But she knew that she and Luo Haofeng were not meant to be. Since it was impossible, why let the other person keep on thinking about it? Better to have a clean break. At the time of breaking up, she thought they could still be friends, which would be nice.

Only now did she realize that it wasn’t nice at all.

Since they never had a clear break and still had feelings, every encounter was a torment to both of them. Seeing the other person with someone else would inevitably lead to wild thoughts. Even though she knew he wasn’t like that, it still made her heart ache.

This feeling was truly terrible.

She didn’t want to endure that kind of torture again, nor did she want him to neglect other women because of her, as she would become the target of others’ resentment.

“Ranran, I’m not you, I don’t have your strength, I can’t do it.” Bai Xiaoxiao said bitterly, feeling sad inside.

Wen Ran’s eyes tightened, and she gently furrowed her brows, comforting her, “Xiaoxiao, just do what you want to do, don’t worry about others, including Luo Haofeng.”

“I want to drink.” Bai Xiaoxiao’s sudden change of topic took Wen Ran by surprise, but she nodded immediately, “Okay, let’s go to my brother’s house, he has many rare wines, this afternoon, let’s drink to our heart’s content.”

“Ranran, you’re the best.” Seeing her agree, Bai Xiaoxiao immediately started flattering her with a smile.

Upstairs, Mo Xiuchen seemed to talk to himself, “Last time, I saw a newspaper in the taxi, I don’t know who deliberately left it there.”

Luo Haofeng chuckled, “Xiuchen, you might as well ask Ah Kai directly.”

“It wasn’t me who arranged it.” Gu Kai swallowed his food, took a sip of his drink and continued, “It was Yuting who did it.”

“Who is Yuting?”

Mo Xiuchen’s brow furrowed slightly, looking at Gu Kai with a puzzled face.

“Shen Yuting, Ah Kai’s cousin, you’ve always been indifferent to everyone except Ranran, and now you’ve lost your memory, of course, you don’t remember Yuting.”

“How did she know I was going to the hospital to find you that day?”

Mo Xiuchen looked at Gu Kai, bewildered, wondering if Shen Yuting could divine the future.

“Actually, she prepared those newspapers a long time ago. That day, Yuting happened to see you go to the hospital to find me. And coincidentally, you didn’t drive, so she placed the newspapers in several taxis along the road.”

“What if I hadn’t taken a taxi?”

Mo Xiuchen’s lips curved into a mocking smile, so it turned out that the taxi driver was lying to him, he knew it; such coincidences didn’t just happen.

“If you hadn’t taken a taxi, in a few days, the media would have exposed another scandal of Cheng Jia’s. In any case, even if you and Ranran can’t be together, we won’t let Cheng Jia stay by your side forever.”

Gu Kai’s tone was calm, yet it held firmness.

They couldn’t possibly allow that bitch Cheng Jia to be with Xiuchen.

Whatever agreement Cheng Jia had made with Mo Jingteng before, as soon as Xiuchen recovered, they would make him see Cheng Jia’s true colors.

Just that, he didn’t know Yuting’s plan from the start either.

“What other scandals does she have?”

Mo Xiuchen narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashing in them.

“Let Ah Feng tell you about that.”

Gu Kai smiled and picked up a piece of food, chewing elegantly and politely.

Luo Haofeng raised an eyebrow and took over the conversation with a smile, “Xiuchen, if you want to know, it’s simple. I’ll send you the photos, and you can use them however you like.”

“What photos?”

“Photos of Cheng Jia seducing men, and they’re from your company.”

“Where are the photos?”

A sharp light burst from Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, and a chill seeped into the curve of his mouth. He would repay Cheng Jia well, letting her understand the consequences of hurting Ranran.

“They’re in City C. After I go back, I will send them to you. You can also ask Mo Zixuan; he was the one who had them taken, maybe he still has some.”
