After saying this, Mo Xiuchen didn’t bother to wait for Bai Xiaoxiao’s response on the other end and hung up the phone directly, his gaze shifting to Luo Haofeng as he raised his hand and tossed the phone to him coolly.

Luo Haofeng’s expression changed, instinctively catching the phone as it was thrown his way.

Beside him, Gu Kai and the others raised their eyebrows in amusement.

Mo Xiuchen, holding Wen Ran’s hand, walked with her to the microphone. Their fingers remained interlocked as he addressed the guests below, “Thank you all once again for attending our wedding. Due to Ranran’s special condition, please allow me to escort her to the resting room for a break…”

A buzz of discussion erupted among the crowd of guests:

“Special condition, is Mrs. Mo pregnant?”

“It’s not visible yet, though.”

Many female guests’ eyes drifted towards Wen Ran’s abdomen.

The journalists present were even more curious, “Didn’t President Mo say just the other day that they planned to have children next year? How come Mrs. Mo is pregnant already?”

“What’s so odd about that? That day, President Mo didn’t even reveal when their wedding would be, and now, just ten days later, he’s put together this unprecedentedly unique wedding.”

“True, by that reasoning, Mrs. Mo is indeed pregnant.”

“After all the hardships President Mo and Mrs. Mo have been through, it’s normal for him to not want her to be worn out by the wedding and to send her to rest in the room first now that she’s pregnant.”

Not just the guests were abuzz with speculation, even Wen Ran, standing next to Mo Xiuchen, was taken aback.

She instinctively looked up at him, confusion welling up in her gentle eyes. What did he mean by her special condition?

Mo Xiuchen returned a tender smile, his hand intertwined with hers squeezed gently. Bending down to her ear he whispered, “The shoes you’re wearing today are uncomfortable, and it’s been a long day with the wedding.”

The confusion in Wen Ran’s eyes turned to surprise, and her heart warmed. She nodded, accepting what he said.

The guests, witnessing their intimate behavior, became even more convinced that Wen Ran was pregnant.

Mo Xiuchen personally escorted Wen Ran to the resting room. Beyond being considerate, he also sought a moment of tenderness. As soon as they entered the room and closed the door, he pulled Wen Ran into his embrace, planting a gentle kiss upon her.

Wen Ran’s heart fluttered, her hands instinctively wrapping around his neck as she softly reciprocated his passionate kiss.

When their kiss ended, both were breathing slightly heavier.

Mo Xiuchen, with his arms firmly around her, gazed intensely into her blushing cheeks. Fighting back his surging desire, he said, “Ranran, rest here for a bit. I’ll go up and call Zhou Lin and Li Qian to keep you company.”

Wen Ran looked into his handsome face, her eyes brimming with tenderness, “Mo Xiuchen, thank you.”

Today’s surprise was truly a magnificent one.

Mo Xiuchen chuckled softly, doting as he kissed the corner of her lips, “As long as you like it, that’s all that matters.”

Everything he did had one purpose—to make her happy. She was his beloved wife; he would naturally not allow her to suffer any discomfort.

“I really like it.”

Wen Ran’s face was lit with happiness, her soft voice filled with contentment.

Mo Xiuchen kissed her forehead again, bent down to pick her up in his arms, and with big strides, walked to the sofa a few paces away, gently placing her down, “Ranran, I’ll go upstairs to the hall first.”

“Xiuchen, don’t drink too much.”

Wen Ran looked at him tenderly, softly reminding him.

Mo Xiuchen’s deep eyes twinkled, and he smiled as he nodded, “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

In such an occasion today, it was impossible for him to abstain from alcohol completely, but he was never one to enjoy getting drunk. Naturally, he wouldn’t allow himself to actually get intoxicated.

Mo Xiuchen walked to the door, and before he opened it, he turned back for one more glance at Wen Ran, his gaze lingering on her for two seconds before he finally opened the door and left.

In the resting room, Wen Ran’s eyes still looked in the direction of the door. Although the door had already closed, she could hear Xiuchen’s footsteps as he departed.

It wasn’t until the footsteps faded away that she got up and walked to the mirror, looking at her own reflection.

Her eyes were slightly red and swollen, and the makeup on her face had been smudged by tears, but the happiness in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.

Thinking of the surprise Xiuchen had given her today filled Wen Ran’s heart with happiness and sweetness.

She placed her hand on her flat belly, perhaps, there was really a tiny life being nurtured there. Her initiative on those nights was for the sake of having a baby.

And Mo Xiuchen was very cooperative with her enthusiasm, putting forth tremendous effort.

At the top floor, the banquet began.

Today’s guests, each and everyone, were gullible and kind-hearted, they believed what Mo Xiuchen said about Ranran being in a special condition and not suited for getting too tired. Thus, she went to rest in her room first, and later on, during the toast, no one insisted on seeing the bride.

They even filled in the blanks themselves, assuming that Wen Ran’s “special condition” was definitely a pregnancy, and that was why Mo Xiuchen was scared of her getting exhausted. They envied Wen Ran one by one, marrying such a considerate husband.

Hearing the discussions from the guests at other tables, Gu Kai and Wen Jin couldn’t help but twitch the corners of their mouths, “Only Xiuchen could pull off something like this, letting the bride rest before the banquet even started.”

Wen Jin looked thoughtfully at Mo Xiuchen and took up the conversation, “Although his actions are a bit over the top, I think he’s done the right thing. Ranran has never really liked wearing those narrow and high heels.”

At least, before Wen Ran graduated, she rarely wore high heels, and even if she occasionally attended a banquet, she would always bring an extra pair of comfortable shoes with her.

After starting work, unless necessary, Wen Ran would try to keep her feet comfortable, rather than wearing those narrow and tall heels that made walking feel torturous.

Just now, Wen Jin was worried that after a whole day in those heels, her feet would certainly be blistered.

“Isn’t it better for Xiuchen to let Ranran rest? Later, when it’s time for him to drink, he’ll have no excuse to refuse,” Qin Mu said, his lips curling up into a pleased smile.

Luo Haofeng glanced at the alcohol on the table, stood up, and said, “I’m going to get a few more bottles of higher proof alcohol; this isn’t enough.”

“Ah Feng, you’ve already managed to offend Xiuchen earlier, you dare to grab more alcohol, aren’t you afraid he’ll settle the score later?” Gu Kai reminded kindly.

Luo Haofeng blinked innocently, “Really? I don’t remember offending Xiuchen. Anyway, I am returning to City B this afternoon. He’ll need time if he wants to settle scores later.”

“Haha, you think just because you run back to City B, Mo Xiuchen won’t be able to do anything about it or will let you go? Ah Feng, with such innocence, how do you manage your family’s business?” Wen Jin teased, a schadenfreude smile appearing in his handsome eyebrows.

Luo Haoran snorted, telling them, “Don’t make it sound so scary.”
