Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 919: Did 918 ask you to wait for him to come back?

A City, Airport

The black Aston stopped outside the airport, Qin Mu turned his head and said to Mo Xiuchen beside him, “Mo Xiuchen, you don’t need to come in with me, head back.”

“Call me when you get home.”

Mo Xiuchen nodded, sending him off at the airport meant having to say goodbye too.

“Okay!”

Qin Mu smiled faintly, opened the car door, and before getting out, he suddenly turned around, his sharp eyes flashing with a hint of hesitation, he pursed his lips and said, “Don’t take to heart what Shen Yuting said to you.”

A flicker of emotion flashed through Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, his lips slowly curling up, “Ah Mu, thank you.”

“That thank you, for thanking me for coming all this way to celebrate your recovery of memory, I accept it, ” Qin Mu said with a brilliant smile, bending down to get out of the car.

The smile on Mo Xiuchen’s lips slowly spread, his deep eyes looking out the car window, watching Qin Mu walk toward the airport until he could no longer see him. He then retracted his gaze, instructing Little Liu, “Let’s head home.”

“Okay, Young Master,”

Little Liu nodded, started the car, and took the road home.

**

After Li Qian got out of the car, only Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao were left in the back seat; she resumed the earlier conversation and asked, “Xiaoxiao, are you really dating Meng Ke?”

Previously, Bai Xiaoxiao and Meng Ke were just ordinary friends, which Wen Ran knew.

Tonight, she brought Meng Ke to the gathering, and Wen Ran was quite surprised considering Meng Ke was not familiar with people in their circle; Bai Xiaoxiao bringing him felt like she was bringing a family member.

“I don’t know, I guess so,” Bai Xiaoxiao blinked blankly, a faint smile appeared on her pretty face. She paused, then said, “Last night, after Luo Haofeng and I left the hospital, Meng Ke went to the hospital looking for me. Later, he not only called my mom but also waited outside my house.”

“What? Meng Ke saw you with Luo Haofeng and tattled to Aunt Qiao?”

Wen Ran’s eyes widened in shock, her brows furrowed, a look of displeasure on her face.

Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated, “Maybe Meng Ke didn’t see me with Luo Haofeng, he said, he couldn’t reach my cell phone, so he called my home.”

Wen Ran snorted, giving Bai Xiaoxiao a ‘you’re really stupid’ look, “Xiaoxiao, are you really naive, or just delusional? If Meng Ke hadn’t seen you with Luo Haofeng, why would he call your home? Your phone was fine, how could it be unreachable. Even if all that stands, why would he run to your house and wait for you to come back?”

“But his explanation makes sense,” Bai Xiaoxiao murmured softly.

“Xiaoxiao, did Aunt Qiao have another heart-to-heart with you last night? Or did Luo Haofeng say something tonight that upset you?”

Wen Ran’s sudden shift in topic left Bai Xiaoxiao utterly bewildered, unable to react for a moment and staring blankly at her.

Suddenly, the ringing of a phone interrupted Wen Ran’s words. She took out her phone, a warm look appearing in her eyes when she saw the caller ID. She pressed the answer button with her delicate fingers, her voice soft as she spoke, “Hello, Mo Xiuchen.”

“Ranran, where are you now?”

Drifting into her ears was Mo Xiuchen’s deep magnetic voice, resonating through the phone waves. Wen Ran pictured his smiling face and handsome brows, a smile appeared on her lovely face too: “I just took Sister Li home, now I’m on my way to Xiaoxiao’s house. What about you?”

“I just dropped off Ah Mu at the airport, now I’m heading home too. I called to ask if you want me to pick you up.”

“No need, just go home,” Wen Ran softly declined. She wasn’t alone, there was no need for Mo Xiuchen to come pick her up.

Mo Xiuchen didn’t insist, his voice low and gentle, “Okay, then I’ll wait at home for you.”

“Hmm.”

Wen Ran’s voice lowered a bit. For some reason, Mo Xiuchen’s words about waiting for her to come home sounded ambiguous in her ears, conjuring up the embarrassing scenes from the night before. She felt her heartbeat skip a beat.

Next to her, Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Ran, whose eyes and eyebrows were softened with a warm smile, and felt a surge of emotion and warmth. This was a far cry from the Wen Ran of the past few days.

“Ranran, I asked you last time to have a godson and goddaughter for me to play with, and you weren’t willing. Are you not going to refuse now?”

As soon as Wen Ran hung up the phone, Bai Xiaoxiao’s teasing words rang in her ears.

She put away her phone, glared at her, and laughingly scolded, “What nonsense are you talking about?” It wasn’t just the two of them; Qing Feng and Qing Yang were there, too.

Bai Xiaoxiao laughed heartily, her face full of ambiguous smiles, and gazed steadily at her, “Ranran, where am I talking nonsense? Didn’t you look in the mirror this morning?”

“…” Wen Ran blinked blankly. Under Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze, she lowered her head and brushed away Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand that was creeping up her neck, “Knock it off.”

“Mo Xiuchen is getting more experienced, huh? He used to leave marks on you in pretty obvious places, but now he’s even…”

“Xiaoxiao, stop talking.” Wen Ran covered Bai Xiaoxiao’s mouth. This girl never held her tongue. “You still haven’t told me, what did Luo Haofeng say to you just now?”

“Mmm…”

Bai Xiaoxiao motioned for her to let go of her mouth before telling her.

Wen Ran smiled, removed her hand, and Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated a little before saying softly, “Ranran, Luo Haofeng asked me to wait for him to come back.”

Wen Ran was startled.

“He asked you to wait for him to come back?” she asked, repeating the words. Confusion swirled in her clear, deep eyes not because she doubted why Luo Haofeng would say that but because she wanted to understand what Xiaoxiao thought about it.

It was clear that Luo Haofeng couldn’t let go of Xiaoxiao.

His enthusiastic participation in the celebration for Mo Xiuchen was merely an opportunity to see Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, her eyes downcast, “Ranran, I don’t know what to do.”

Listening to Bai Xiaoxiao’s somewhat confused and helpless words, Wen Ran felt a tightness in her heart. She pressed her lips together and asked gently, “Xiaoxiao, don’t you feel anything for Meng Ke?”

Bai Xiaoxiao laughed self-mockingly, “No, I even find it strange myself. You would think Meng Ke isn’t bad either, funny and humorous, and he treats me well. But when I’m with him, I just don’t feel that way. Ranran, if it hadn’t been for him wanting to start as just friends, I might have already asked him for a breakup.”

“Xiaoxiao, you don’t need to deliberately wait for Luo Haofeng, nor force yourself to like Meng Ke. Don’t make yourself do anything you don’t want to. Just follow your heart,” Wen Ran softly said as she gently held Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand, her tone full of sympathy.

Xiaoxiao was her best sister, and she wished her happiness and joy. If Luo Haofeng could really convince his parents this time and handle his relationship with Qi Meiling properly…

Perhaps there was still a chance for them.

After all, they both still cared for each other, and if they could just continue loving each other, they might be able to move both their parents. Isn’t it said that true lovers will eventually be united?
