Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1685: Chapter 1684: Elopement

‘Haofeng’—these two words deeply shook her soul.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand holding the phone involuntarily tightened.

Her emotions were once again in turmoil because of Luo Haofeng.

This was Bai Xiaoxiao’s most helpless point. She and Luo Haofeng had broken up three years ago, yet she still couldn’t let him go.

Anything and anyone related to him felt special to her.

“Xiaoxiao, what are you looking at? Your aunt is talking, and you didn’t even hear it?”

It wasn’t until Mother Bai’s voice rang out that Bai Xiaoxiao hurriedly looked up at Madam Meng and Mother Bai.

She covered her distraction with a smile and said, “I was just thinking about work, Aunt. I’m sorry, I didn’t hear it.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

Madam Meng laughed indifferently.

Suburban villa.

Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran brought their three little treasures for dinner at Gu Kai’s house to see Bai Yiyi.

Wen Ran and Bai Yuqin stayed with Bai Yiyi in her room.

In the downstairs living room, Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen watched over the four children.

When the phone rang, Mo Xiuchen was motioning for Ziyi to come to the sofa.

Seeing the caller ID, Mo Xiuchen smiled at Gu Kai next to him and said, “It’s Ah Feng calling.”

“Hello, Ah Feng.”

“Xiuchen, where are you? I want to see you.”

Luo Haofeng’s voice came through the phone. Mo Xiuchen first paused, then smiled, “You’re in G City?”

“Yes, I arrived in the evening. I didn’t call right away because I had some work matters to attend to.”

“So, you’ve finished your business now?”

Mo Xiuchen asked nonchalantly.

“Yes, I want to discuss something with you.”

“I’m at Ah Kai’s. Come over.”

Luo Haofeng might have called while already on the road, as he arrived at Gu Kai’s house in less than half an hour.

He greeted the four kids in the living room before sitting down on the sofa, “You’ve brought the kids. Ranran didn’t come?”

“Ranran is upstairs with Yiyi. Did you come to G City alone?”

“Not alone. Do you think I dragged my family along or something?”

Luo Haofeng counter-questioned, taking the water Gu Kai poured and taking a sip, “You’re not the only one asking that.”

“Oh, who else has asked?”

Mo Xiuchen raised a handsome brow, smiling meaningfully.

Luo Haofeng glared at him, “Why should I tell you? Anyway, I came to G City alone. This time, it’s for work, not a family visit.”

“Is your girlfriend shy to go out or unwilling to come with you?”

Gu Kai chuckled, looking at Luo Haofeng.

Luo Haofeng huffed, “Ah Kai, do you think I’m like you, with women unwilling to join me?”

He was referring to Gu Kai’s past with Bai Yiyi.

Mo Xiuchen laughed heartily, steering the conversation back on track, “You said you have something to discuss with me. What is it? Let’s hear it.”

Luo Haofeng fiddled with the cup in his hand, saying as if on a whim, “Haochen hasn’t had an employee trip in the second half of this year, right?”

Hearing this, Mo Xiuchen narrowed his deep eyes slightly.

Gu Kai also raised an eyebrow, a meaningful smile on his lips.

“Why ask? Are you, Big Boss Luo, planning to pay out of your pocket to send all employees on a trip?”

Mo Xiuchen asked with a smile.

He didn’t believe Luo Haofeng would be so generous.

Luo Haofeng chuckled twice, “Xiuchen, if I had your wealth, I wouldn’t mind, but I’m not that rich. I just think everyone has worked hard for the last six months, and with the year-end approaching, it’s time for some travel benefits…”

“What are you thinking?”

Mo Xiuchen asked calmly.

Luo Haofeng proposing a trip, it must have something to do with Bai Xiaoxiao.

After all, the largest travel agency in G City belonged to Meng Ke.

Could it be that Bai’s employees are planning a trip soon?

“My idea is not to let everyone’s efforts go unrewarded. With many employees at Haochen, we can split them into groups.”

“Ah Feng, did you come all the way to G City just to secure benefits for the entire workforce?”

Gu Kai teased with a laugh.

Luo Haofeng gave a mirthless smile, “I’m also securing benefits for myself. Don’t you both want to meet my girlfriend? When Haochen Group employees travel, I’ll bring her along.”

“Don’t act like your girlfriend is a treasure. We don’t mind if we don’t meet her.”

Mo Xiuchen replied indifferently.

Gu Kai laughed heartily, while Luo Haofeng looked distressed.

“Ah Feng, you better tell the truth. Xiuchen is not a fool.” Gu Kai kindly reminded him. Without explaining the purpose, Xiuchen might not agree.

“Fine. My aim is to get Xu Wanqi out of the travel agency.”

“Who is Xu Wanqi?”

Gu Kai’s body, leaning back on the sofa, suddenly sat up straighter, looking at Luo Haofeng with interest.

Mo Xiuchen merely raised an eyebrow without commenting.

He knew who Xu Wanqi was.

Ranran told him yesterday that Meng Ke’s travel agency had a woman named Xu Wanqi who, because she liked Meng Ke, went to Bai Xiaoxiao’s company to bother her.

Luo Haofeng’s information sources were quick.

The matter from yesterday, and he already knew about it by today.

Even journeyed from City B.

Mo Xiuchen couldn’t help but feel sorry for his new girlfriend.

“Xu Wanqi is a tour guide at Meng Ke’s travel agency. Apparently, she likes Meng Ke, so she’s been giving Xiaoxiao a hard time. She even went to her company to provoke her, and today at noon, she brought Xiao Yuting’s ex-girlfriend…”

Luo Haofeng explained the whole situation in detail.

After hearing him out, Gu Kai sighed, “What a twist of fate.”

Mo Xiuchen nodded thoughtfully, “Indeed, such a twist of fate. So, you want to stand up for Xiaoxiao by using a trip to make Xu Wanqi err and get her ousted from the travel agency.”

“Since Meng Ke is with Xiaoxiao, he shouldn’t have admirers left around.”

When Luo Haofeng said these words, his tone was quite harsh.

He could stay away from Xiaoxiao, but he couldn’t just watch her being bullied by another woman.

“Ah Feng, why go through all this trouble? Just take Bai Xiaoxiao back. Even if you deal with one Xu Wanqi, what if thousands more Xu Wanqis appear? What would you do then?”

Gu Kai’s words were met with a cold chuckle from Luo Haofeng, “You’re giving too much credit to that Meng.”

“Ah Feng, behaving like this isn’t fair to your new girlfriend.” Mo Xiuchen’s deep eyes bore into Luo Haofeng, “Didn’t I tell you the other day? If you’ve started a new relationship, don’t meddle in Bai Xiaoxiao’s affairs anymore.”

“If you want to intervene, just take her back, or elope with her.”

“That’s a good idea.”

Gu Kai immediately agreed.

“Elope abroad, stay for a few years, and when the kids are old enough, return. By then, neither your mother nor Xiaoxiao’s mother could protest anymore.”

Luo Haofeng gave a bitter smile, “Ah Kai, if it were that simple, I’d have done it long ago, but Xiaoxiao would never agree.”

He tried a year ago.
