Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 913: 912 I didn’t even look at her once

Mo Xiuchen, seeing the expression on Li Yaqing’s face, knew that what Ranran had said was true. His deep gaze suddenly darkened.

He was not interested in women’s brands and had never paid attention to what Li Yaqing was wearing. He was just annoyed by her appearance in front of him and had Secretary Lin call security to take her away.

However, Wen Ran was different. She had not only looked through Li Yaqing’s profile but also had Qing Feng and Qing Yang investigate her, knowing that Li Yaqing had come to the company to find Mo Xiuchen a month ago.

It had even been arranged by her father wanting to meet Mo Xiuchen, but instead, she had met Mo Zixuan… Wen Ran knew all of this.

Just now, when Wen Ran saw Li Yaqing, she recognized her instantly. While she was talking to Mo Xiuchen, she was actually keeping an eye on Li Yaqing, taking in every expression on her face.

Women focus on different details than men. Wen Ran coincidentally noticed that the outfit Li Yaqing was wearing was the same one she and Xiaoxiao had seen in a magazine a few days ago.

At that time, they had discussed the magical aspect of that dress set, which was in how the scarf was matched.

Not only had Li Yaqing not worn the scarf, but she had also deliberately left the pearl button undone, revealing a large expanse of her cleavage, clearly visible to others.

Fortunately, Mo Xiuchen and Li Yaqing were a few steps apart, and his gaze had not wandered there. If it had been another man, who might have been closer to her, he might have been seduced by Li Yaqing’s voluptuousness.

“Miss Li, is this enough, or do you want me to point out the perfume you used today as well?”

Wen Ran looked at Li Yaqing, whose face was flushed red, with a faint gaze. She had indeed made great efforts to seduce Mo Xiuchen, from makeup to clothing, to perfume, even her performance in front of Mo Xiuchen, all carefully calculated.

Li Yaqing’s reddened cheeks suddenly turned a shade paler.

Her eyes filled with shock as she looked at Wen Ran. She really knew what perfume she had sprayed today? How was that possible? Wen Ran was just a woman spoiled by the Wen Family from childhood, her academic performance mediocre. Without Mo Xiuchen’s help after the Wen Family’s crisis, she would have been ruined by Xiao Wenqing long ago.

“Miss Wen, is this how you demean every woman who appears beside Mo General? Today, I have witnessed it myself,” she almost spat the words out, struggling to maintain her image.

She clenched her lips firmly before retorting, “I do have a scarf for this dress, but it is merely decorative. I don’t like it, so I didn’t wear it. The weather is good today; I don’t think this affects my image in any way. Mo General’s shirt is also unbuttoned at the top, can you say he’s trying to seduce every woman?”

A flicker of coldness suddenly flashed in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, but Wen Ran simply smiled lightly, raised her hand to gently touch Mo Xiuchen’s shirt, and lowered her voice to a volume only the three of them could hear, “I just unbuttoned that for Mo Xiuchen to apply medicine. Miss Li, please don’t draw false comparisons.”

“What are you two still doing there?” Mo Xiuchen did not want to hear any more from Li Yaqing and sternly asked the two security guards standing by.

Upon the command, the two immediately stepped forward and asked Li Yaqing to leave.

Mo Xiuchen did not look at Li Yaqing again, simply telling Wen Ran, “Ranran, don’t let these messy people affect your mood. Tell me what you want for lunch, and I’ll go with you.”

Seeing the stark difference in Mo Xiuchen’s attitude towards Wen Ran and herself, Li Yaqing’s face alternated among hues of red, white, and blue, gritting her teeth, she said, “Mo General, one day, you will accept my interview.”

The answer she got was the sound of the door closing.

“Ranran, how did you know about Li Yaqing?”

Outside, Li Yaqing did not wait for the security to pull her away; she left on her own after dropping those words. In the office, Mo Xiuchen led Wen Ran to the sofa and sat down, his gaze fixed on her with a slight tension.

Wen Ran looked at Mo Xiuchen and said softly with a smile, “If you won’t tell me, someone else will.”

Mo Xiuchen furrowed his brows and after pondering for two seconds, asked, “Ranran, did Mo Jingteng tell you?”

Wen Ran raised her hand to smooth his furrowed brows and gently explained, “It was Mo Jingteng who told me. He said that every matchmaking candidate he found for you was ten times, no, a hundred times better than me. He also mentioned that among those women, there would definitely be one that you’d like.”

“When did he tell you that?”

A hint of anger rose in Mo Xiuchen’s heart, making his voice slightly colder and sterner.

Wen Ran smiled indifferently, “Mo Xiuchen, didn’t you just say not to get angry over trivial matters? How come you’re angry yourself now?”

“Ranran, do not believe a word Mo Jingteng says; aside from you, I won’t fancy any other woman.” Mo Xiuchen’s voice was low and firm, his deep eyes intently locking with Wen Ran’s, his anger stirred because Mo Jingteng had upset his Ranran by saying those things.

Wen Ran felt warmth in her heart, her eyes lighting up with a smile, “Of course I won’t believe him, I only believe you. But, you are too outstanding, the number of women who set their sights on you is countless. Even when someone tries to seduce you, you fail to notice, honestly.”

By the end of her statement, Wen Ran pouted her lips slightly.

Mo Xiuchen wore a wronged expression, “Ranran, I did not even glance at her, how would I have known?”

“Listening to you, I actually feel pity for Li Yaqing, she prepared so much and yet you didn’t even spare her a glance.”

Wen Ran said with a laugh.

Mo Xiuchen blinked in surprise, Wen Ran explained, ” I heard that Li Yaqing came to the company looking for you a month ago. After you drove her away, she never came back. However, Mo Zixuan told me he saw Li Yaqing at the coffee shop opposite your company twice, and today…”

“When did Zixuan tell you this?”

“This morning. I ran into him at the hospital and he shared some news with me,”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyebrows slightly knitted together. Li Yaqing was seen at the coffee shop opposite? He was unaware of that. “Ranran, what else did he tell you?”

Wen Ran shook her head, “Nothing much, just that Li Yaqing might come to look for you again. I didn’t expect to run into her so soon. I wonder if it’s only Li Yaqing, or if more women will come looking for you.”

“Ranran, there’s something I want to tell you.” Mo Xiuchen lowered his gaze and his voice suddenly deepened.

Wen Ran blankly blinked, tilting her head as she looked at him playfully, “Mo Xiuchen, what is it? Could it be, all those matchmaking candidates arranged by Mo Jingteng will come knocking?”

Mo Xiuchen pressed his thin lips together, seeming to find it hard to speak. His handsome features tightened with a touch of sternness as he said awkwardly, “Mo Jingteng is not my father.”
