Ahead, a crisp voice arose.

Wen Ran looked toward the entrance and saw Bai Yiyi walking over with a radiant smile, “I just saw Mo Xiuchen. He told me you came out for some air. Ranran, you look stunning tonight.”

Wen Ran raised an eyebrow, “Is that so? How did you get here? Where’s Tongtong?”

“The nanny is taking care of her at home. I came with Elder Brother Li tonight. I guessed you would definitely be here, so I came to join in the fun.”

Bai Yiyi’s playful words made Wen Ran laugh heartily, “So you mean to say you came to the banquet for me?”

“Of course.” Bai Yiyi nodded seriously.

After finishing her nod, she then turned to look at Li Yaqing standing next to her, who had been glaring angrily at them, and she blinked, “Ranran, is this elder sister a friend of yours?”

“Who are you calling elder sister?”

Li Yaqing had already been infuriated by Wen Ran calling her ‘auntie’ earlier, and now, this woman, who appeared to be around Wen Ran’s age, had called her ‘elder sister.’

What mattered most was the use of the word ‘elder.’

For someone her age, that was a big blow.

The amusement in Wen Ran’s eyes was hard to hide. Her fondness for Bai Yiyi suddenly increased significantly—the Bai Yiyi who could compete with Bai Xiaoxiao, both of them bearing the surname Bai.

She even suspected they might be lost sisters.

“Was I wrong, Ranran? Is this elder sister not your friend? I saw her with you earlier and thought she was your friend. Since she’s not, could this elder sister please move to the main hall inside? Your appearance seems like it’s been too long since you’ve had a man, causing you…”

“You two are too much.”

Li Yaqing was so confused by Bai Yiyi’s words that her face, meticulously made up, turned shades of green and white. Wen Ran pulled Bai Yiyi aside, ignoring Li Yaqing’s annoyance, “Yiyi, let’s head to the main hall.”

“Wen Ran, don’t think that by having Mo Xiuchen refuse my interview, he will be kept away from all the women in the world. One day, you will be abandoned too.”

Li Yaqing’s words were dismissed by both Wen Ran and Bai Yiyi.

Once inside the banquet hall, Bai Yiyi clung to Wen Ran as they headed to the food area, eating while she asked, “Ranran, who was that woman earlier? You should have let me scold her more.”

“You don’t even know who she is, and yet you spoke of her that way? Aren’t you afraid she might be a friend of mine?”

Wen Ran looked at Bai Yiyi amused.

“How could that be? Although I didn’t know who she was, her gaze at you was clearly filled with annoyance and jealousy. My first instinct was that she must be a woman in love with your husband, taking the chance to bully you while you were alone. Sigh, you see, marrying such an outstanding husband is like having romantic rivals all over the world.”

Concluding her point, Bai Yiyi shook her head and sighed.

Wen Ran stuffed a piece of pastry into her mouth to shut her up, “Don’t make it sound so serious. In fact, not every woman who adores Xiuchen would confront me like this. Li Yaqing is the type who thinks too highly of herself, believing she’s superior to all other women.”

“She is Li Yaqing?”

Bai Yiyi furrowed her brows as she looked at Wen Ran.

“So, you’ve heard of her?” Wen Ran asked in confusion.

“It’s not that I know her, but Elder Brother Li, I seem to recall him agreeing to an interview with Li Yaqing because of her father’s influence.”

From the entrance direction, Li Yaqing walked in, immediately greeted by a man who seemed to be her companion—Wen Ran couldn’t recall where she had seen him before.

In another direction, indeed, Li En was conversing with Li Yaqing’s father, Li Yunchang. Glancing over, he saw Bai Yiyi with Wen Ran and said something to Li Yunchang before striding over.

Li En thought he was coming alone, but unexpectedly, he ran into Li Yaqing halfway. Li En pointed towards Wen Ran and Bai Yiyi’s direction, and both of them walked over together.

Bai Yiyi frowned, knowing that Li En needed that loan.

“Yiyi, let’s head over there.”

As Wen Ran saw Li En walking over with Li Yaqing, her forehead also furrowed, and she quickly pulled Bai Yiyi away.

“Yiyi.”

However, they hadn’t walked far when Li En’s voice followed from behind, forcing Bai Yiyi and Wen Ran to stop.

From afar, Mo Xiuchen, who was talking to someone, turned his head and noticed Li Yaqing approaching Wen Ran. His eyes narrowed slightly before he excused himself from the conversation and strode over.

Though he was still far away, his pace was quick. Li Yaqing and Li En had just reached Wen Ran and Bai Yiyi when Mo Xiuchen also arrived.

“Ranran.”

Mo Xiuchen only had eyes for her, his gaze fixed on Wen Ran as he spoke, his long arm naturally wrapping around her slender waist.

Li Yaqing, seeing Mo Xiuchen’s demeanor towards Wen Ran, felt a surge of frustration, though she dared not show it. Instead, upon seeing Mo Xiuchen, she appeared slightly nervous and timid.

“Mo General, hello.”

“Ranran, are you tired?”

Mo Xiuchen completely ignored Li Yaqing’s greeting, his tender gaze resting only on Wen Ran.

Wen Ran smiled gently and shook her head, “Not tired.”

Watching Mo Xiuchen, Li En hesitated before extending his hand in greeting, “Mo General, hello.”

“Hello.”

Mo Xiuchen glanced at Li En’s extended hand and then at Ranran beside him before finally reaching out to shake hands.

“Ranran, let’s go home,” Mo Xiuchen said, showing no interest in chatting with Li En. After the handshake, he quickly led Wen Ran away.

Wen Ran also didn’t want Li Yaqing staring at her Mo Xiuchen, so she bid Bai Yiyi farewell and left the banquet hall with Mo Xiuchen.

“Ranran, did that Li Yaqing bully you?”

In the car, Mo Xiuchen leaned over to buckle Wen Ran’s seatbelt and asked with concern.

He had seen Li Yaqing leaving the banquet hall with Ranran but didn’t follow immediately, feeling that Li Yaqing wouldn’t dare do anything too outrageous to Ranran.

If it was just verbal mockery, he believed Ranran wouldn’t lose out.

Afterwards, when Bai Yiyi greeted him, he told her to go find Ranran.

Wen Ran blinked and shook her head, “No, Li Yaqing just couldn’t stand seeing me monopolize you, she only said a few mocking words.”

“Hmm, so you didn’t mock her back?” Mo Xiuchen asked playfully, looking at her delicately featured face.

Wen Ran motioned for him to buckle his seatbelt and thought for a moment before answering, “I’m not a fool, why would I let her mock me for nothing? Don’t worry, she didn’t get the better of me, and she left with a pale face in the end.”

“I knew it, you wouldn’t let yourself be bullied,” Mo Xiuchen spoke with certainty, his smile enchanting and captivating.

With that, he leaned down to start the car.

Wen Ran rolled her eyes at his dazzling smile, “Are you proud because you have so many admirers?”
