Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1113: 1112 is definitely possible.

“Ranran, don’t worry, Momo is fine. I’ll tell you as soon as I have more precise information,” Mo Xiuchen softly comforted on the other end of the phone.

Wen Ran said with concern, “Mo Xiuchen, no matter the situation, you must ensure Momo’s safety.”

“I know. Wait for my call.”

“Ranran, is there news about Momo?” Bai Yiyi asked anxiously as soon as Wen Ran ended the call.

Wen Ran nodded, a smile finally breaking across her face, slightly excited, “Yiyi, there is news of Momo. Maybe, in two days, Mo Xiuchen could really bring Momo back.”

“Yes, he definitely can.”

Bai Yiyi gave a reassuring smile, just as the hospital room door was pushed open. At the entrance, a voice called out “Ranran,” and Wen Ran looked up in astonishment to see Bai Xiaoxiao running in. Surprise flashed in her eyes, and in a blink, Bai Xiaoxiao had approached the bedside.

“Xiaoxiao, why have you come back?”

Bai Xiaoxiao dropped her luggage bag, bent down, and hugged Wen Ran.

“Ranran, something so serious happened, how could you not tell me? Is there any news about Momo now?”

“How did you find out?”

After the embrace, Wen Ran asked Bai Xiaoxiao. She hadn’t called to tell her, not deliberately keeping it secret, but because she simply wasn’t in the mood to tell anyone about such things.

“Eudora told me. One of her friends in the country informed her. If she hadn’t returned to the country once before, she would have come back with me this time. Ranran, if I hadn’t known, would you have kept it from me forever, just suffering alone?”

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Ran, noticeably more haggard compared to a few months ago when Wen Ran visited her in D Country.

“Eudora?”

Wen Ran frowned slightly, “How would her friend know?”

“The news is all over the internet, Ranran, didn’t you know?”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened, something else occurring to her, “You’re lying in the hospital bed, all worried about Momo’s disappearance, you certainly don’t know that the media has already spread it everywhere.”

“Ranran, the media found out yesterday. Director Gu dealt with it, and Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai brought in some people to prevent any reporters from bothering you,” explained Bai Yiyi softly. Once Momo disappeared, and the hospital staff looked into it, they couldn’t keep it from everyone.

While Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai were looking for news of Momo, they also thought about Wen Ran. Fearing that reporters would come to disturb her and only make her sadder, they arranged for people to stop all journalists from coming up.

Even outside the hospital room, Qing Feng and Qing Yang took turns standing guard.

“Who is this?”

Upon hearing Bai Yiyi’s explanation, Bai Xiaoxiao finally turned around and scrutinized her closely.

Wen Ran forced a smile, making introductions for them: “Xiaoxiao, this is Yiyi, she shares the Bai surname with you. Yiyi, this is Xiaoxiao, my best friend.”

Bai Xiaoxiao and Bai Yiyi shook hands and greeted each other. Bai Yiyi stood up, saying, “I’m going to the restroom for a moment. You two haven’t seen each other in so long; you must have a lot to talk about.”

Bai Yiyi left the hospital room and went to the rest area, where she called her mom to ask if Tongtong was being good at home.

Having just hung up, she saw Gu Kai coming out of the elevator with a thermal container.

“Aren’t you in the hospital room with Ranran? Why are you here making a call?”

That morning, after Wen Ran had breakfast, Gu Kai came to collect the thermal container. Since Ranran was in confinement, she required more meals than others, so Gu Kai brought up lunch early.

“Bai Xiaoxiao just came back from abroad, and she’s just arrived at the hospital ward. They haven’t seen each other for several months, so I left them some time to talk.”

Bai Yiyi explained indifferently, not minding the questioning tone Gu Kai had just used.

“Bai Xiaoxiao, she’s so far away overseas, how would she know about Momo’s situation? Ranran couldn’t have told her. In the past, if there was any news, Ah Feng would leak the information, but now, even Ah Feng has lost contact with her…”

Gu Kai furrowed his brows in confusion.

“It wasn’t Luo Haofeng, but someone named Eudora,” she had overheard Bai Xiaoxiao mention, “it seems that Eudora’s friend in China told her, and then she informed Bai Xiaoxiao.”

“Eudora? The woman who Ranran said looks a lot like her?”

Gu Kai repeated Bai Yiyi’s words.

Bai Yiyi paused upon hearing this, “Is there someone who looks a lot like Ranran?” In this world, people who resemble each other are few and far between, and it’s even rarer for such lookalikes to know each other.

Unless they are siblings, with a blood relation.

Gu Kai nodded, “Yes, that’s someone Bai Xiaoxiao met abroad. I haven’t seen her myself, but Ranran mentioned that she looks a lot like her.”

“You go ahead and bring something to eat to Ranran.”

Bai Yiyi didn’t continue the topic and urged Gu Kai to leave.

Gu Kai frowned slightly, then handed over a thermal lunch box to her, saying, “The housekeeper prepared two portions of lunch. You’re here keeping Ranran company; you shouldn’t have to pay for your own lunch. Here, there’s one for you.”

“Bai Xiaoxiao is back, with her to accompany Ranran, I want to go home to check on Tongtong. Let Bai Xiaoxiao eat this lunch.”

Bai Yiyi made no move to take the thermal lunch box he was offering.

“What happened to Tongtong?” Gu Kai expressed his concern when he heard she wanted to go home to see Tongtong.

Bai Yiyi shook her head, “Nothing, I just miss Tongtong.”

“Wait then, I’ll take you back home in a bit. I haven’t seen Tongtong since I got back from my business trip, and I’ve yet to give her the gift I bought. I happen to have time today, and just now, Mo Xiuchen called saying there’s news about Momo.”

He missed his daughter too, so it seemed like a good idea to take this opportunity to see Tongtong.

Knowing now that Tongtong was his daughter, Gu Kai couldn’t remain indifferent toward her, naturally wanting to be a good father.

After Gu Kai finished speaking, he turned and strode towards Wen Ran’s hospital room. Bai Yiyi watched his retreating figure with a furrowed brow.

Suddenly, her phone began to vibrate in her hand.

Seeing the caller ID, Bai Yiyi abruptly remembered what her mother had said yesterday: half a month ago, she saw Li En having dinner with a woman who somewhat resembled Wen Ran.

Just now, Gu Kai had also mentioned that this Eudora person looked a lot like Ranran.

Could it be possible that there really are so many similar-looking people in the world? When her mother told her yesterday, Bai Yiyi thought her mother’s eyesight might be failing due to her age.

“Hello, Elder Brother Li.”

She calmed herself, pushing aside the whirlwind of thoughts as she answered the call.

“Yiyi, did you have something to discuss when you called yesterday?”

Li En’s voice came over the line, slightly distorted.

Bai Yiyi glanced towards the hospital room, noticing Gu Kai had yet to come out, and walked a couple of steps to the window. “Elder Brother Li, have you returned from your business trip?” she asked.

“Not yet, something came up here, and I will be back in a couple of days.”

“Where are you on your business trip?”

As Gu Kai appeared from the hospital room, Bai Yiyi moved aside and heard Li En answer over the phone, “I’m in City B…”
