Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 424: 423 Don’t walk so close to him

“Good!”

Any hesitation in Mo Zixuan’s heart was expelled by the call of the executive chair.

In fact, Mo Xiuchen had wanted to use this approach from the beginning, but Mo Zixuan had steadfastly denied having Xiao Wenqing’s contact information. He was afraid that if he pushed too hard, Mo Zixuan would flatly refuse.

He gave him a few days to see if he could use his own methods to find Xiao Wenqing. If so, he would be left with no way out.

After hearing what Gu Yan said that day, he changed his mind.

He didn’t want to delay even a day longer, he wanted to find Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi as soon as possible. The evidence he held was just about enough.

Mo Xiuchen took the elevator downstairs and walked out of the company. He noticed Gu Kai and Wen Ran standing outside chatting in the sun. The bright sunshine cast on her beautiful face, filling her brows and eyes with a radiant charm. He paused in his steps, his tall figure standing at the entrance of the company, watching her intently.

It seemed that she sensed his gaze, Wen Ran who was talking with Gu Kai turned her head towards him. Their eyes met across the distance, her eyes flickered, she said something to Gu Kai, then turned and walked towards him.

Mo Xiuchen’s gaze deepened as he stood in place, watching Wen Ran approach.

“Xiuchen, Older Brother Gu said you want to invite him to lunch. Let’s go.”

Wen Ran walked forward, her arm naturally entwining with his. The smile in her eyes was charming. She was very clear that Mo Xiuchen had sent her away earlier, she just didn’t know what secret matters he discussed with Gu Kai.

Mo Xiuchen smiled slightly, “It’s not me who needs to invite him. He chose to come at this time. If I don’t invite him, he’ll definitely say I’m stingy.”

He glanced at Gu Kai standing at the roadside, took out the hand Wen Ran had around his arm and enveloped her small hand in his palm.

“Should I call Luo Haofeng? Otherwise, he’ll say that you’re stingy.”

Remembering how Luo Haofeng got upset in the morning because the red envelope Mo Xiuchen gave her was bigger than his, he surely wouldn’t be pleased if they didn’t invite him to lunch.

Mo Xiuchen chuckled, taking out his phone, “Hmm, I forgot about that without your reminder. Indeed, we should invite Ah Feng. If we call Bai Xiaoxiao along too, then there’s a possibility he will pay for today’s lunch.”

Wen Ran twitched the corners of her mouth while Mo Xiuchen’s laughter grew more joyous. “We are going on a trip after a while, I need to start saving. We can’t spend lavishly, what if I can’t afford to support you then?”

Wen Ran was speechless. She knew his wealth, yet here he was talking about not being able to support her, as if she was a big spender.

“Haha, Ranran, I’m just teasing you. Rest assured, even if I don’t work for the rest of my life, I can still afford you. Spend without worry.”

Mo Xiuchen looked at Wen Ran’s adorable appearance and couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter. Once the laughter subsided, he dialed Luo Haofeng’s number.

“Hello!”

From the other end of the phone, Luo Haofeng’s voice came through. He looked up at the building and cheerfully said, “Ah Kai’s here, we’re going to go have lunch together. Do you want to come?”

“Where are you guys?”

“Downstairs.”

Mo Xiuchen held Wen Ran’s hand and walked towards the road.

“I’ll be right down.”

“Ranran, call Xiaoxiao now. In a bit, let Ah Feng pick her up.”

Mo Xiuchen hung up the phone, a mischievous smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

“Where are we going for lunch?”

Wen Ran took out her phone. A few steps away, Gu Kai pointed at the hotel across the street, “Let’s go there, no need to go too far.”

“You guys…” Wen Ran looked at Gu Kai, then at Mo Xiuchen. No matter how she looked, their smiles were full of scheming. They were eating right across, but they asked Luo Haofeng to pick up Xiaoxiao.

By the time he came back after picking up Xiaoxiao, they would have eaten more than half of their meal. By then, it would be set in stone that Luo Haofeng was paying the bill.

She knew that Mo Xiuchen was sly, but she didn’t know that her brother was equally sly.

“Ranran, quickly call Bai Xiaoxiao. Ah Feng should be coming down soon.” Mo Xiuchen urged with a smile. He and Gu Kai didn’t make any prior arrangements, it was just years of playing tricks on people nurtured a mutual understanding between them. With just one glance, they could understand each other’s intentions.

As soon as Wen Ran finished calling and put away her phone, Luo Haofeng came out from the revolving door. From several steps away, he asked, “Xiuchen, where are we going? Are we not driving?”

Mo Xiuchen remained silent, his deep eyes looking at Wen Ran.

“Wen Ran, where are we going for lunch?”

Luo Haofeng was an extremely smart person. Seeing that Mo Xiuchen didn’t speak and Gu Kai only smiled without saying a word, he immediately asked Wen Ran. They both listened to Wen Ran, wherever she said to go to, they would definitely go there.

“We’re going to the hotel across. I’ve already made the reservation. I’ve just called Xiaoxiao and she’s waiting for you to pick her up. Luo Haofeng, you should hurry up. We will go ahead to the restaurant and wait for you and Xiaoxiao.”

Luo Haofeng’s smile froze for a moment, and he stared at Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai with an odd look. The next second, he squinted his eyes, “You guys did this on purpose.”

“Did what on purpose?”

Wen Ran blinked innocently, and then pursed her lips, “If you don’t want to pick up Xiaoxiao, it’s fine. Older Brother Gu, why don’t you go pick her up? It’s just that Xiaoxiao has trouble getting in and out of the car, so you’ll have to carry her…”

“I’m going, you guys wait for me. Before I get back, dont start eating, and Xiuchen, you’re the one who asked me to lunch, so you’re the one paying.”

Once Luo Haofeng finished speaking, he turned and walked towards his parking spot, leaving Wen Ran blinking in confusion. She blinked again, feeling a bit lost.

Not one of these three men was easy to deal with.

“Haha, don’t worry about Ah Feng. Ranran, let’s go.”

Gu Kai looked at Luo Haofeng’s departing figure and burst out laughing before happily talking.

Anyway, he wasn’t the one who needed to pay, all he had to do was eat and drink freely.

Bai Family

After Bai Xiaoxiao finished her call with Wen Ran, she wheeled herself into the bathroom to wash her face. As she was sitting in front of the dressing table applying makeup, Mother Bai walked in.

“Xiaoxiao, are you going out?”

Bai Xiaoxiao put down the eyebrow pencil and turned her head to look at Mother Bai who brought in the soup. She explained, “Mom, Wen Ran just called me to invite me to lunch.”

“Wen Ran, is she coming to pick you up?”

Mother Bai was slightly taken aback. Seeing Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze flicker, she furrowed her eyebrows, walked up to her, placed the bowl of soup on the dressing table and asked softly, “Xiaoxiao, tell mom, are you and Luo Haofeng in a relationship?”

Bai Xiaoxiao shook her head, “Mom, you’re overthinking it. Luo Haofeng and I are just ordinary friends.” Although he was nice to her, he never said anything like he liked her. She couldn’t possibly be imagining things and think that he liked her.

“Is it so? But every time Wen Ran invites you, it’s Luo Haofeng who drives. You’re not quite mobile now, getting in and out of the car and such, he always carries you. Xiaoxiao, mom is not being conservative. If you’re not interested in him and he doesn’t have romantic intentions towards you, then you shouldn’t get too close to him.”
