Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 692: 691 Pharmaceutical Factory Fire

A glint of coldness flashed across Qin Sen’s eyes, clearly dissatisfied with Mo Zixuan’s ungrateful response.

He twirled his wine glass in his hand and said coolly, “Hasn’t General Mo ever heard the phrase ‘better safe than sorry?’ As far as I know, Mo Xiuchen is your love rival. He took away the woman you loved, don’t you hate him?”

“So what if I hate him?”

Mo Zixuan retorted.

“If you hate him, now is the best opportunity. As long as you hand Wen Ran over to me, I assure you, Mo Xiuchen will never come back, and he will never take away the wealth and status that belongs to you.”

So that’s it, Mo Zixuan thought, after all that beating around the bush, Qin Sen wants him to hurt Wen Ran.

He only knows that he hates Mo Xiuchen for taking Wen Ran away, but doesn’t he know that he still loves Wen Ran?

“Don’t worry, I won’t hurt Wen Ran. I just need her to deal with Mo Xiuchen. Tomorrow night, I have a deal with Mo Xiuchen. As long as you hand Wen Ran over to me, I will return her to you after tomorrow night.”

Qin Sen smiled sinisterly. Everyone knew that Wen Ran was Mo Xiuchen’s weak point, but he had no idea where she was now.

Since he was dealing with Mo Xiuchen tomorrow night, the only thing that could make Mo Xiuchen lose his cool and make him willing to die, was Wen Ran.

Hence, he sought out Mo Zixuan.

Mo Zixuan’s expression turned a little gloomy: “Sorry, Deputy Director Qin, I’m afraid I can’t help you.”

Qin Sen was taken aback, but his expression changed in the next second, “Don’t refuse so quickly, General Mo. Take a look at this before you decide.”

He handed Mo Zixuan a file bag. Mo Zixuan took it with a puzzled look. He had been wondering what was in the file bag that Qin Sen had left on the table, and apparently, it was meant for him.

When he finished reading the contents, his handsome face turned pale, and his expression was extremely rich.

His fingers, clasping the file bag, turned white as well. He stared coldly at Qin Sen, who was smirking triumphantly, and gritted his teeth.

“Fine, I agree.”

Ever since he saw Wen Ran that day, Mo Zixuan has had someone tailing her. Firstly, he wanted to play the knight in shining armor while Mo Xiuchen wasn’t in G City, so he could protect her if she was in danger.

Secondly, he wanted to know her whereabouts at all times, so he wouldn’t be left in the dark about where Mo Xiuchen had taken her, like before.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy now.

After leaving the Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, Mo Zixuan sat in the driver’s seat, gripping the steering wheel with both hands. His entire upper body lay on the steering wheel as he pondered how to get Wen Ran out.

No, he couldn’t go see Wen Ran in his own name. If he did, she would hate him to death.

Although Wen Ran was in the countryside now, she was protected by Qing Feng and Qing Yang. He had to distract them in order to take Wen Ran away.

Back at the countryside villa, Wen Ran, tired from crying, got up to grab an ice pack to soothe her swollen eyes.

After applying it, she went back upstairs. Lying on her bed, she stared at the ceiling, unable to sleep. Gu Kai’s words echoed in her mind. Thinking about the situation Mo Xiuchen was in, her heart ached sharply.

It was midnight, and Wen Ran was still wide awake.

When her sharp cell phone ringtone sounded, her eyes were startled, and she turned her head to look at the phone she’d thrown on the bedside table.

Seeing the caller ID on her phone, Wen Ran’s eyes shifted slightly. She pressed the answer button and spoke uncertainly: “Hello?”

“Miss Wen, the laboratory at the pharmacy is on fire, and President Wen and Professor Li are still inside.”

“What?”

Wen Ran bolted upright in bed. Her headbuzzed, as if short-circuited, “Are people putting out the fire…”

“People are putting out the fire, but the blaze is too big. President Wen and Professor Li were working overtime tonight…”

“How can it catch fire all of a sudden? You have to make sure my brother and Professor Li are rescued. I’ll be right back.”

Wen Ran spoke incoherently, already jumping off the bed and running to the wardrobe. She flung it open and grabbed clothes.

“Miss Wen, President Wen has been rescued, don’t worry!”

The crying voice of the secretary came over the phone. Wen Ran sighed slightly in relief, but as she thought about the pharmacy catching fire and her brother getting hurt, her heart rose again: “Is my brother hurt?”

She put the phone on speaker and threw it on the bed, changing her clothes quickly.

“President Wen… his injuries should not be serious.”

The secretary’s intermittent words made Wen Ran’s heart rise back to her throat. She said, ‘I’ll be right back,’ and hung up.

In the next room, Shen Yuting and Bai Xiaoxiao were sound asleep. Wen Ran didn’t wake them up, but rushed upstairs. Meanwhile, Qing Feng and Qing Yang, who were sleeping in the living room downstairs, woke up when they heard the noise. They rushed out of their rooms as Wen Ran was rushing out the door.

“Miss Wen, where are you going?”

Qing Feng’s voice came from behind. As he spoke, he arrived in front of Wen Ran. Dressed in a T-shirt, he was unlike Qing Yang behind him, who was buttoning up his shirt.

Wen Ran’s originally pale face looked even paler under the light. Her swollen eyes had been treated but hadn’t completely deflated, and they radiated worry and anxiety, “The pharmacy is on fire, my brother is injured, and I have to rush back now.”

She gave a simple explanation. Qing Feng and Qing Yang reacted quickly and digested her words, “Miss Wen, let us accompany you back.”

Thinking of Shen Yuting and Bai Xiaoxiao upstairs, Wen Ran said anxiously, “Leave one of you here, Sister Ting and Xiaoxiao are here, I won’t feel at ease.”

Qing Feng and Qing Yang looked at each other, “Miss Wen, I’ll take you back. Let Qing Yang stay here.”

“Okay.”

Wen Ran didn’t want to waste any more time, so she nodded her head, and she and Qing Feng quickly left the living room. Qing Feng quickly pulled the car out of the garage and as soon as they hit the road, they sped towards G City downtown.

They hadn’t been on the road for long when Wen Ran’s phone rang again.

This time, the call was from Wen Jin. Wen Ran picked up quickly, asking worriedly, “Brother, are you hurt?”

“Ranran, I’m fine, don’t worry. It’s too late tonight. Don’t rush back now, if you want to come back, wait until tomorrow.”

Wen Jin’s soothing voice came through. He’d just learned that the secretary had called Wen Ran, and he didn’t have time to scold the secretary. Instead, he called Wen Ran first to let her know he was okay.

Wen Ran, who had been on tenterhooks, finally relaxed when she heard Wen Jin say that he was fine, “Brother, I’m already on my way back. Qing Feng is with me, focus on handling the stuff at the factory, and we’ll talk about the rest when I get back.”
