Chapter 832: 831 Staying in the city with him

After Zixuan left, Mo Xiuchen dialed Qing Feng’s number, which rang twice before Qing Feng’s voice came through.

“Qing Feng, starting from tomorrow, you and Qing Yang continue to follow Ranran. If she goes to City C, you go to City C to ensure her safety.”

Mo Xiuchen’s deep voice carried an unmistakable authority and chill. On the other end of the line, Qing Feng was taken aback, “Young Master Mo, did something happen?”

Ever since Liao Dongxing was arrested and Fu Jingyi turned himself in, they hadn’t been following Wen Ran like before.

“Nothing much. I just don’t want Ranran to get hurt. From tomorrow on, the two of you continue to ensure her safety, and leave the rest to Little Liu.”

“Alright, Young Master Mo, we will definitely protect Miss Wen well.”

...
Qing Feng promised over the phone.

Mo Xiuchen added a few more instructions before ending the call.

A few minutes later, the doors of the operating room opened, and Mo Jingteng was wheeled out. Mo Xiuchen stood up and approached, asking the doctor about Mo Jingteng’s condition.

**

The next day, Wen Ran got up very early.

Mo Xiuchen didn’t come to her house, but as though they had a telepathic connection, just as she sat up, his call came through.

Wen Ran picked up her phone, saw the incoming call display, her eyes flitted briefly, and she rubbed her eyes before pressing the answer button, her voice gently saying, “Hello!”

“Ranran, are you up yet?”

Mo Xiuchen’s warm, magnetic voice came through the phone, making Wen Ran, who had just woken up, unconsciously smile. Her sleepiness dissipated, and her eyes and brows softened with warmth. Just hearing his voice made her feel warm and happy.

Her tone became cheerier, “Just got up.”

“Haha, it seems I called just at the right time, didn’t wake you, and I get to say good morning.” Mo Xiuchen’s joyful laughter came through, and Wen Ran’s smile grew brighter, “Good morning.”

“Ranran, I’ve sent Qing Feng and Qing Yang to your place. If you’re going back to City C today, they will go with you. They will ensure your safety these days,” Mo Xiuchen got straight to the point, his voice still gentle and soft.

Surprise surfaced in Wen Ran’s eyes, “Xiuchen, why send Qing Feng and Qing Yang with me to City C?”

He didn’t say why, and she faintly felt that Mo Xiuchen was keeping something from her. Could it be that Xiuchen feared Cheng Jia’s revenge? But she didn’t want to go to City C now; after thinking for a long time last night, she decided to stay.

Stay in the city where he was.

Back then, out of longing, she had traveled to D Country just to see him. Now that the two of them had the chance to be in the same city, why should she leave?

“Ranran, previously, Cheng Jia and Mo Jingteng teamed up to force you to leave me, then deceived me. Now that they know I am with you, they will certainly try to stop us. Until I have dealt with them, I can’t be at ease about your safety,”

Mo Xiuchen fell silent for a moment before telling Wen Ran the reason.

“Xiuchen, what are you going to do?” Wen Ran asked worriedly, his phrase ‘deal with them’ startling her. Although she also despised Mo Jingteng and Cheng Jia, she didn’t want Xiuchen doing something he shouldn’t, sacrificing his own future because of those two.

Upon hearing her concern, Mo Xiuchen suddenly chuckled, “Ranran, I’m not that foolish. I’m gathering evidence of Mo Jingteng’s crimes. As for Cheng Jia, I have plenty of ways to deal with her. Don’t worry, I intend to be with you till we’re old.”

“Xiuchen!”

Wen Ran called out softly, her voice tender and full of emotion.

A casual remark from him could touch her heartstrings and fill her with emotion.

Staying with her until old age, such phrases might also move ordinary lovers and spouses, but for Wen Ran, it was not just moving; she had not dared to hope for it until recently.

“I am here.”

Mo Xiuchen’s voice was tender and indulgent, making no effort to hide his affection for her. Those simple words, “I am here,” made Wen Ran’s eyes suddenly moist.

From now on, he would never leave her.

He wouldn’t let her cry alone in sadness; he would always be with her, and even if he wasn’t physically there, his heart would be with her.

Unable to hear her voice, Mo Xiuchen said gently, “Ranran, I am at the city hospital right now. You’ve had breakfast, let Qing Feng and Qing Yang take you to Kangning Hospital, and I’ll come to see you soon.”

Wen Ran’s eyebrows furrowed as she blurted out, “What are you doing at the hospital?”

“Mo Jingteng fainted last night, I’ll tell you all about it when we meet.”

Mo Xiuchen didn’t want to talk about these matters over the phone. Moreover, a few words wouldn’t explain everything. By the time he’d explained, his Ranran would be starving. He chuckled softly, “Ranran, go ahead and wash up, then come downstairs for breakfast.”

“Have you had breakfast?”

Wen Ran asked with concern.

“I have eaten,” Mo Xiuchen’s voice was clear and cheerful, enjoying the care from Ranran.

After hanging up the phone, Wen Ran changed her clothes in a good mood, washed up, came downstairs, and Wen Jin was already sitting in the living room waiting for her.

“Ranran, why are you so happy today? Is there some good news?” Wen Jin squinted his eyes and looked at Wen Ran with a smile, teasing her.

Wen Ran’s eyebrows arched playfully, “Brother, Sister Li had such a cute baby; doesn’t that count as good news?”

“Haha, yes, but I somehow feel like that’s not the only reason you’re so happy?”

Wen Jin said meaningfully.

He not only knew that Mo Xiuchen had sent Qing Feng and Qing Yang to ensure Ranran’s safety, but he also knew that Wen Ran had been with Mo Xiuchen yesterday, and last night, it was also Mo Xiuchen who had brought her back.

Seeing her happy made all of Wen Jin’s recent worries melt away.

“Brother, Sister Li has given birth to a baby, when will you bring me a sister-in-law so that I can quickly have a little nephew or niece to play with?” Wen Ran playfully countered, her eyes sparkling with mischievous laughter, Wen Jin feigned a scowl, “I can’t just bring any Tom, Dick, or Harry home to be your sister-in-law. What if they bully you? Besides, it’s not like you only have one brother; you could ask Ah Kai.”

“Neither of you can escape,” Wen Ran said defiantly, watching him.

It was only thanks to Auntie Li calling them for breakfast that Wen Jin could end the conversation and take Wen Ran to the dining room for breakfast.

After breakfast, Wen Ran went to the hospital to see Li Qian and chatted with her for a while until Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai arrived at the hospital.

It wasn’t long before Li Qian started to hurry Wen Ran.

“Sister Li, now that you have Brother Chen with you, are you rushing me away?” Wen Ran glanced at Chen Bin, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, gently holding Li Qian’s hand, though she was actually planning to leave.

Li Qian chuckled, “I’m worried Mo General might get impatient and blame me for monopolizing you; better go find Mo General quickly.”
