Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 678: 677 I’m waiting for you to come back

“Mo Xiuchen, last night, Chairman Mo called you. You were asleep, so I didn’t wake you up.”

When Wen Ran informed Mo Xiuchen, they were sitting at the breakfast table. Mo Xiuchen, sitting next to her, was drinking milk. Hearing her words, he put down the cup and casually smiled, “Mmm, I saw it just now.”

His voice faltered slightly, then continued. “Ranran, Qing Feng and Qing Yang will take you to work later. Ah Mu and Ah Feng will come to pick me up. You don’t need to send me off.”

Wen Ran’s heart sunk slightly, an ephemeral hint of sadness flickering in her eyes that fell.

Raising her head again, a mild smile was hanging on her beautiful face, her voice gentle, “Alright, since you’re only going to A City for a few days, I won’t see you off.”

“Mmm.”

Mo Xiuchen didn’t tell her that after going to A City to negotiate with Liao Dongxing, he would also go to D Country. He planned to tell her over the phone once he arrives in A City.

Wen Ran clearly understood Mo Xiuchen’s mindset. Although she didn’t show any sadness on her face, she lost her appetite after eating a bit. She couldn’t eat any more and only drank half a glass of milk.

“Ranran, why aren’t you eating?”

Mo Xiuchen watched Wen Ran with his brows slightly furrowed. She only ate a small piece of bread and took a few sips of milk. No wonder she was getting thinner, without eating, how wouldn’t she lose weight?

Wen Ran shook her head with a smile, her voice pure and beautiful, without any hint of abnormality, “After you fell asleep last night, I got up and ate some food. I’m not hungry this morning. Mo Xiuchen, you eat. I’ll watch.”

Mo Xiuchen was half doubtful of what she said about eating after he slept. He could not force her if she doesn’t want to eat. After some thought, he asked her with concern, “Ranran, do you not want to eat this breakfast? If so, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll make it for you or take you out to eat.”

“No, I’m really not hungry. You eat quickly. Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng will be here to pick you up.”

With a sweet smile on her face, after speaking, she simply poured her half glass of milk into his cup and sweetly said, “Mo Xiuchen, help me finish drinking.”

Mo Xiuchen laughed and hopelessly looked at the full cup of milk again, “Can I say I won’t drink it now?”

“Of course not.”

Wen Ran glared at him, seeming like she would pour the milk into his mouth herself if he didn’t finish it. Mo Xiuchen pulled a scared face, raised his cup, and gurgled down the milk.

Seeing him finish drinking, the smile on Wen Ran’s face became brighter. She took the tissue she had used to wipe her mouth to wipe his, laughing as she said, “We’re promoting conservation now. The tissue I used to wipe my mouth isn’t dirty. Mo Xiuchen, just bear with it.”

“Okay!”

Mo Xiuchen gazed at her adoringly, letting her finish wiping his mouth before standing up, hand in hand with her, leaving the dining room.

Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng’s timing was perfect. They entered right after they left the dining room. Luo Haofeng, dressed in a pink shirt, and Qin Mu, dressed in a black shirt, formed a sharp contrast.

Just like their personalities; one frivolous and the other reserved and profound.

“Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran, have you two finished saying goodbye? Can we leave now?”

An ambiguous smile twinkled in Luo Haofeng’s flirtatious eyes, sweeping over Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran’s faces. Qin Mu only quietly watched, a faint smile hanging on his lips

At Luo Haofeng’s words, Mo Xiuchen threw a cold glance at him, “If you don’t speak, no one will think you’re mute.”

Wen Ran laughed lightly and joined in the conversation, “Luo Haofeng, you and Mo Xiuchen are going to A City, and you surely won’t be able to return to G City in two or three days. Why not give Xiaoxiao a call and let her know?”

“I’ve already called.”

Perhaps Luo Haofeng was dumbfounded by Mo Xiuchen’s sharp gaze just now, but surprisingly he answered Wen Ran’s question without any contemplation.

From his expression and tone, it seemed like a good student answering the teacher’s question.

Qin Mu and Mo Xiuchen laughed uncontrollably when they heard his answer. Luo Haofeng replied to Wen Ran’s words, only realizing that she wasn’t actually concerned about him. His handsome face showed displeasure as Wen Ran burst into laughter, pointing at Luo Haofeng’s unhappy face, “Luo Haofeng, you were really well-behaved just then. Since you’ve called Xiaoxiao, can you tell us what you two discussed?”

Mo Xiuchen withdrew his gaze from Luo Haofeng and looked at Wen Ran, who was beaming radiantly. He couldn’t help but become entranced.

Qin Mu’s eyes flickered for a moment, quickly shifting his gaze back to Luo Haofeng. He spoke in a leisurely tone, “Ah Feng, have you managed to convince Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother yet? Or are you and Bai Xiaoxiao now secretly in love?”

“What secret love? Ah Mu, Xiaoxiao and I are mutually attracted. Why does it sound so bad when it comes from your mouth?”

Luo Haofeng glared at Qin Mu, who seemed to have no concept of proper conversation.

Qin Mu shrugged, his face indifferent, “You haven’t gained approval from your future mother-in-law. If that’s not secret love, then what is it? Ah Feng, I advise you to speed up. Otherwise, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother will surely arrange a blind date for her with a better man.”

“Pfft, how could there be a better man than me in this world?”

Luo Haofeng casually ran his fingers through his hair. His expression was self-conceited to the extreme.

Wen Ran watched, shaking her head. Mo Xiuchen laughed, “Ranran, let’s head upstairs and let them wait here for a while.”

“Okay, I’ll help you pack.”

Wen Ran glanced back at Luo Haofeng, then hand in hand with Mo Xiuchen, they headed upstairs, leaving Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu waiting in the living room.

Once back in their room, Wen Ran packed a few sets of clothes for Mo Xiuchen. He hadn’t brought any luggage when he returned from abroad. She could fit all the summer clothes in one bag, so no suitcase was needed.

Other than the clothes, there wasn’t much else that needed to be packed. Wen Ran handed the bag to Mo Xiuchen. In her gaze, there was a thick sense of reluctance. She casually said, “Mo Xiuchen, be careful when you’re out there. I’ll be waiting for you to return safely.”

She spoke slowly, each word precise, more like a request for a commitment than simple advice.

Mo Xiuchen’s thin lips tightened. After a few seconds of looking at her, he suddenly pulled her into his arms. The tightness of his embrace made Wen Ran’s bones ache, but she didn’t dare move. She wrapped her arms around his waist, heat surged in her heart, quickly spreading to her nose and moistening her eyes.

Time froze in their tight embrace.

After a long time, Mo Xiuchen pulled her out of his arms, his deep gaze locked onto her face as if trying to imprint her features in his heart, “Ranran, I’ll be back!”

He bent down and left a kiss on her forehead, then let her go and left hastily!
