Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 967: 966 is somewhat similar to you Chapter 967: 966 is somewhat similar to you “Stop at the mall up ahead; I need to buy something.”

When the car approached the mall near Shen Yuting’s apartment, Wen Ran glanced out the window and spoke in a gentle, faint voice.

Qing Yang pulled over, and Qing Feng got out first, opening the car door for Wen Ran to get out.

“Qing Yang, you don’t need to come down. I’ll go in with Miss Wen to buy some things, and then we’ll come right out,” Qing Feng told Qing Yang, and entered the mall with Wen Ran.

Wen Ran and Qing Feng took the elevator directly upstairs, and, according to Shen Yuting’s request, picked up those specific seasonings. Wen Ran felt unwell in her stomach and was delayed in the restroom for over ten minutes before she paid and went downstairs.

As soon as she walked out of the mall, she was immediately recognized by a few young girls coming toward her; one of them shouted, “Isn’t she the woman who seduced our male idol Jiang?”

“Yes, it’s her.”

These few women, appearing quite young, probably high school students around seventeen or eighteen, but their attire and speech were somewhat gaudy.

Qing Feng, who was walking behind Wen Ran, darkened his face upon hearing this and immediately stepped in front of Wen Ran. His tall figure shielded her while his eyes coldly stared at the few non-mainstream dressed girls, saying sternly, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

“It’s all over the internet, she is the woman who seduced our male idol Jiang. I heard from my aunt that she seduced many men, maybe even the guy in front of us,” one of the girls said disdainfully while looking at Wen Ran, as if she looked down on such a promiscuous woman.

Qing Feng’s already cold face instantly gathered storm clouds, and he retorted sharply, “Talk nonsense again, and see if we don’t sue you for defamation.”

“It’s not us saying it; we also heard it from others. Wen Ran first seduced Mo Xiuchen, then Jiang Liu, and not only that, I heard there’s also Mo Xiuchen’s brother and his friend Qin Mu.”

“Even, her and her brother Wen Jin, they aren’t blood-related, but they act intimately in a revolting way…”

The group went back and forth, Qing Feng’s complexion changed again and again, though Wen Ran had already heard such ugly words once in the hospital, these were far more offensive.

Especially since they dragged Qin Mu, Mo Zixuan, and her brother Wen Jin into it.

Her face grew slightly pale, her eyes cooled as she looked at them, her words sharp, “You aren’t children; be responsible for your own words and the rumors you spread. Although I don’t know where you heard these rumors, during the press conference that day, your idol Jiang Liu already clarified them. If you admire him, you should believe him instead of malicious rumors that could hurt him.”

“Of course, we like Jiang Liu, but you holding his hand that night is a fact. How do you explain that? And your seduction of so many men.”

“Miss Wen, don’t waste your words on them. Since they like spreading rumors, I’ll call the police now and let them talk in the police station. Then, I’ll call their school and see what kind of students their school teaches,” Qing Feng said, his voice growing heavier and his eyes swept coldly over the few girls in front, resting on one in the back who was still clutching a half-smoked cigarette.

“Smoking and drinking aren’t enough, now spreading malicious rumors…”

“Let’s go.”

At his words, fear flickered across two girls’ eyes, and they nervously touched their companions beside them as they lowered their heads.

In the distance, Qing Yang, who had just finished making a phone call, turned his head and saw Qing Feng and Wen Ran surrounded by a group of girls at the mall entrance. His expression changed, and he quickly got out of the car and hurried over.

By the time he reached the mall entrance, the group of girls had already left.

“Qing Feng, what happened?” Qing Yang looked at the few girls walking into the mall and asked Qing Feng.

Wen Ran was the first to speak, “It’s fine, let’s go.”

Qing Feng looked at Wen Ran and seeing that she didn’t want him to say more, he pursed his lips and said lightly, “It’s nothing.”

A hint of doubt flashed in Qing Yang’s eyes as he looked from Wen Ran to Qing Feng, but he didn’t ask further.

Once they were in the car, Wen Ran no longer wanted to go to Shen Yuting’s house. Instead, she asked Qing Yang to drive home. A few minutes later, she took out her cellphone to call Shen Yuting.

“Ranran, are you almost there?”

Shen Yuting’s voice came through the phone, filled with expectancy and a smile.

“I’ve had some urgent matters come up and won’t be able to make it. I’ve asked Qing Feng to bring the spices you wanted over to you, he should be arriving at your place in a few minutes,” Wen Ran explained.

“Ranran, what kind of emergency could it be that you can’t come? Are you sure you don’t want to come to my place?” Shen Yuting’s tone carried a hint of displeasure, “If you don’t want to come, you don’t have to make excuses.”

“It’s genuinely something urgent. Some other day when I have time, I’ll treat you to a meal. I’m truly sorry about today,” Wen Ran apologized.

Wen Ran didn’t want to hear Shen Yuting say words she didn’t want to hear, so she hung up the phone directly.

By the time she got home, it was only eleven o’clock.

Wen Ran returned to her room and turned on the computer, finding an email waiting for her.

It was from Bai Xiaoxiao. In the email, Bai Xiaoxiao mentioned that she had made a new friend, also an East Asian girl, who had helped her out of a scrape the night before, along with some friends.

After reading the email, Wen Ran furrowed her brows tightly and immediately took out her mobile phone to dial Bai Xiaoxiao’s number.

After a few rings, Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice came through, “Hello, Ranran, I knew you’d call me as soon as you saw the email.”

“How are you, are you alright?” Wen Ran asked immediately, her voice full of concern.

Bai Xiaoxiao chuckled lightheartedly on the phone, “I’m fine, do I sound like someone who’s in trouble?”

“Don’t lie to me, otherwise, I’ll come to D Country and you’ll be in real trouble,” Wen Ran frowned, issuing a stern threat.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s laughter grew even happier, “That would be great, Ranran. If you come to see me, I’d be really touched. Although I’m truly fine, I miss you a lot. It feels like it’s been a century since we last saw each other.”

“All I know is that it’s still a long way off from two years,” Wen Ran’s tone was teasing, but her heart suddenly filled with a layer of faint sadness and longing.

When Xiaoxiao was in G City, they didn’t see each other every day, but they could meet whenever they wanted to.

Now it was different, separated by the Pacific Ocean, even video calls couldn’t alleviate the longing in her heart, especially knowing that Bai Xiaoxiao was alone abroad. Hearing that she had encountered hooligans last night made Wen Ran’s heart immediately tighten.

“Ranran, are you trying to upset me?” Bai Xiaoxiao complained over the phone.

Wen Ran chuckled, “Didn’t you make a new friend?”

“Yes, Ranran, let me tell you, she even looks a bit like you, only she’s not very talkative and seems quite aloof.”
