“Chapter 189

Xiao Wenqing’s mind was thrown into chaos all at once. Bringing up MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran as an example, she had completely forgotten that her words were like a sharp blade plunged into MO Zixuan’s heart.

His handsome face paled, and he pressed his lips together tightly. MO Xiuchen’s eyebrows furrowed, the corners of his mouth lifting into a cold curve.

“Don’t compare Zhou Lin with Wen Ran. She doesn’t even come close to a single hair on Wen Ran’s head,” he said.

MO Zixuan glared angrily at Xiao Wenqing. His greatest pain was seeing the woman he loved married to another man and ironically, that man happened to be his half-brother whom he loathed to the bone.

Xiao Wenqing was probably trying to hint that Wen Ran was already attracted to MO Xiuchen, and that any feelings Wen Ran previously had for him, MO Zixuan, had long vanished. She suggested he shouldn’t cling on to past feelings. However, MO Zixuan saw all this as a tactic by MO Xiuchen. Wen Ran, being a naive girl, could be easily fooled.

Even if Wen Ran truly fell in love with MO Xiuchen, he wouldn’t resent her. His resentment would only be directed towards MO Xiuchen.

Furthermore, in his heart, Wen Ran remained the best, incomparable. Zhou Lin, that detestable woman, wasn’t even a match for her, and even if she was carrying his child, and wholly loved him, he wouldn’t show a shred of pity to Zhou Lin.

Xiao Wenqing was somewhat furious. But in front of MO Xiuchen, she didn’t dare criticize Wen Ran. She could only compromise: “Fine. Even if Zhou Lin isn’t as good as Wen Ran, she’s still the one carrying your child. With her father circumstance now, she’s in a daze. It wouldn’t be good if anything happened to the pregnancy.”

MO Zixuan sneered coldly, “I don’t care what the reasons are, but in no circumstances will I bring forward the wedding. If you want to get married, go ahead on your own.”

Having said that, he turned and left, not even caring if MO Jingteng was present.

“Zixuan…”

Xiao Wenqing’s call was interrupted by MO Jingteng’s cold voice: “Stop always pushing Zixuan, the fact he agreed to marry Zhou Lin at the end of the year is already crossing the line. If you only care about the child in Zhou Lin’s belly, why not let her have the baby and give her some money to leave?”Even though Zixuan wasn’t as outstanding as MO Xiuchen, they were both his sons. In his eyes, they were both exceptional.

Xiao Wenqing’s face became pale and she wanted to respond, but she swallowed back down whatever words she had in mind.

When MO Xiuchen returned to his office, Wen Ran had already finished her phone call and was absentmindedly sitting on the sofa. The sound of him opening the door was so soft that she, who was deep in thought, didn’t even notice him.

She was leaning slightly on the sofa, her eyes downcast, lost in thought.

MO Xiuchen entered his office and quietly shut the door behind him. He walked elegantly towards the sofa and only when his tall figure cast a shadow over Wen Ran did she suddenly come back to her senses. “You’re back!” “What has you so lost in thought?”

MO Xiuchen gave a slight smile. He sat down next to her, tilted his body towards her, and gently looked at her with a warm gaze.

Wen Ran’s eyes sparkled slightly and she replied with a smile, “Nothing much. I was just thinking if your authority as a president is going to be even more formidable.”

MO Xiuchen suppressed a smile and asked incredulously, “Really? You’re not lying to me?”

Indeed, he knew Wen Ran was lying.

Wen Ran nodded seriously, “Of course. President MO, have you solved the issue that made you leave in a hurry earlier?”

With a light smile, MO Xiuchen stretched out his long arm to naturally pull her into his embrace. Wen Ran’s brows slightly furrowed, but she didn’t struggle. “Xiao Wenqing is trying to advance Zixuan and Zhou Lin’s wedding.” Said MO Xiuchen jestingly, thick sarcasm lacing his voice.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ran’s eyes widened in astonishment, “Why do they want to advance the wedding? Is it Zhou Lin’s idea?”

As soon as her words left her mouth, she furrowed her brows, feeling that something was off. Even if it was Zhou Lin’s idea, Xiao Wenqing shouldn’t be in such a rush, unless there was some significant reason.

MO Xiuchen played with a strand of her hair, gently hinting, “Zhou Mingfu has been arrested. Considering Xiao Wenqing’s snobbish personality, she should be thinking of ways to sever ties Zhou Lin now.”

A certain emotion flashed in Wen Ran’s eyes as she took over the conversation. “Even if Zhou Lin is carrying MO Zixuan’s child, Xiao Wenqing might just trick her into giving birth, and then drive her away.”

At that time, faced with her family troubles, wasn’t Xiao Wenqing afraid that she would drag MO Zixuan down and even tried to drug her?

Why, when Zhou Lin’s father got into trouble, did she rush to bring her into the MO family?

There must be something fishy going on!

A hint of chill spread across MO Xiuchen’s lips. When he spoke again, his voice carried an icy tone distinct from the temperature of the office. “Maybe, Zhou Mingfu is holding some sort of leverage over Xiao Wenqing and is using it to threaten her to advance the wedding so as to hasten Zhou Lin’s entry into the MO family.”

Wen Ran’s eyes fluctuated as she thought. She’d suspected that Xiao Wenqing and Zhou Mingfu were colluding, but hadn’t any proof. Now, Xiao Wenqing’s urgency to have Zhou Lin married into the MO family could be seen as a self-exposure.

“Ranran, this is a good thing.”

MO Xiuchen interrupted her thoughts, comforting her with a smile.

A hint of confusion flashed across Wen Ran’s face as she asked softly, “Did Zixuan refuse?”

MO Xiuchen nodded. Wen Ran was clever. One hint was enough for her to get it. “Zixuan firmly refused. Moreover, this time my venerable old man is on Zixuan’s side too, disapproving of Zhou Lin marrying into the MO family. Xiao Wenqing will need to put in quite a bit of effort to have Zhou Lin married into the MO family. If she’s not careful, she will offend Zhou Mingfu. By then, it’ll be a case of the dog eating dog, and that would be quite a sight.”

“Maybe, we can add fuel to the fire!”

Wen Ran’s eyes flashed coldly.

Zhou Mingfu and Xiao Wenqing still had some shady dealings that they were hiding. She was suddenly curious to know what it could be. Previously, she had suspected that Zhou Mingfu was behind the car crash that killed her parents. Now it seemed, could Xiao Wenqing be involved as well?

Although this speculation was bold and lacked any evidence, once the thought had appeared, she felt that nothing was impossible.

MO Xiuchen saw through Wen Ran’s thoughts. Feeling an ache in his heart, he asked gently, “Ranran, do you think Xiao Wenqing might also be involved in the car accident that killed your parents?”

Wen Ran was startled, “How do you know what I’m thinking?”

MO Xiuchen watched her surprised expression and suddenly laughed. His eyes sparkled and he lowered his voice, teasing ambiguously, “Given our intimate communication every night, I naturally know what you’re thinking.”

Upon hearing his words, Wen Ran’s mouth fell open in disbelief and her face reddened all the way to her ears. Seeing him laughing all the more heartily, she blurted out in a fit of embarrassment and anger, “MO Xiuchen, you’re a rogue!”

Ha ha ha!

MO Xiuchen’s hearty laughter echoed through the spacious office. Seeing Wen Ran getting up to leave, he reached out and pulled her back into his embrace, his other hand naturally going around her waist.. Leaning down, he gently covered her soft, red lips with his own!
