Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1761: Chapter 1760: Good Night

The call ended quickly, and Xiaoxiao didn’t hear Luo Haofeng’s joyful laughter on the other end.

However, her face was burning hot.

She lifted a hand to touch her face, tossed the phone onto the bedside table, and pulled the quilt over her head.

So embarrassing.

Two minutes later, the phone on the bedside table emitted a low notification sound.

Xiaoxiao hesitated for a few seconds, but eventually stuck her head out from under the covers, picked up the phone, and checked the message.

As she expected, it was a message from Luo Haofeng:

Xiaoxiao, goodnight, sweet dreams!

It was signed, Love, Feng.

Seeing the name ”Feng”, Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat involuntarily.

If she remembered correctly, in the years she had known Luo Haofeng, she had only called him ”Feng” once.

Normally, she called him Haofeng.

And that one time was when they were abroad.

Even though she didn’t want to remember it, she could never forget it for the rest of her life.

That night, she gave herself completely to him, and it was that night she called him ’Feng’.

Luo Haofeng had signed off intentionally, as a reminder to her.

She snorted, tossed the phone back onto the bedside table, lay back down, and forced herself to sleep, prohibiting herself from overthinking.

At this very moment, in City B, Luo Haofeng was wide awake.

Although he drank very little tonight, he felt a bit tipsy.

It was because of the woman he deeply loved.

Being able to chat with her like this filled Luo Haofeng with unspeakable satisfaction.

Unable to sleep, he picked up the remote control and flipped through a few channels; there was nothing good on TV in the middle of the night.

So he switched the remote for his phone, opened up his call log, and dialed a number randomly.

The phone rang several times, and on the other end, Mo Xiuchen’s voice came through, slightly sleepy, ”Hello.”

”Xiuchen, don’t tell me you’re asleep this early?”

Waking someone up, Luo Haofeng felt no guilt, but rather, was quite happy.

He was bored watching TV alone and had no friends to chat with, so he naturally needed someone to accompany him.

”Early? It’s the middle of the night. Ah Feng, are you crazy? If you’re sick, call Ah Kai.”

Why call him in the middle of the night and disturb his sleep?

He’s not a doctor.

”Tsk tsk, Xiuchen, how can you curse me like that? Haven’t you called me in the middle of the night many times? I’ve never lost my temper with you.”

Luo Haofeng’s tone was clearly smug.

”If you have something to say, say it quickly, so I can go back to sleep.”

Wen Ran, who was snuggled in his arms, stirred. Mo Xiuchen immediately looked down at her and, seeing she hadn’t woken up, smiled slightly and lowered his voice a bit.

”Xiuchen, my dad and mom’s relationship has improved.”

Luo Haofeng had called Mo Xiuchen mainly because he couldn’t sleep, not because he had anything important to say.

But since Xiuchen asked, Luo Haofeng thought if he had nothing to share, Xiuchen would definitely hold it against him.

So, he picked a topic to talk about.

Mo Xiuchen squinted a bit; he didn’t think this was a matter worth being woken up for in the middle of the night.

With this thought, he chuckled softly, ”You want your parents to reconcile so Mother Luo won’t hate Xiaoxiao and her mom anymore?”

”Xiuchen, do you think that’s possible?”

”Where there’s a will, there’s a way. It’s not impossible. Right now, you and Xiaoxiao have no better options, and you can’t bring yourself to be cruel to your mom, so you might as well try.”

No matter how bad Mother Luo was, she was still Luo Haofeng’s biological mother.

No matter how poorly she treated others, she was good to Luo Haofeng.

Even though Luo Haofeng had been a bit of a playboy before, he was still filial.

”I don’t want to go down that road unless I have no other choice.”

There was a moment of silence on the phone.

Then Luo Haofeng’s voice came through, stiffly.

When he decided to win Xiaoxiao back, he had made several plans.

The worst-case scenario was...

”Hmm, that’s fine. The root of Mother Luo’s hang-up is her love for a man who’s interested in someone else. Once she gets the love she craves, she might be able to let go.”

”By the way, there’s an update on the attack on Xu Wanqi.”

”Who was behind it?”

”No one. It was a drama she staged herself.”

Mo Xiuchen’s words carried a hint of mockery. Xu Wanqi not only directed and starred in the drama herself but had also left on a business trip with Meng Ke.

”So that’s how it is. Does Meng Ke know?”

Right now, there was no need to tell Meng Ke.

Xiaoxiao wanted to break up with him, so Mo Xiuchen naturally wouldn’t inform Meng Ke.

”Meng Ke took Xu Wanqi abroad for a business trip.”

”When did that happen?”

Luo Haofeng asked in surprise.

Mo Xiuchen laughed, ”Right after you went back, he took Xu Wanqi on a business trip.”

”Meng Ke took Xu Wanqi on a trip? But hasn’t Xu Wanqi already resigned?”

Luo Haofeng was confused by Mo Xiuchen’s words.

”She resigned, but she can travel under another identity. Qing Yang happened to run into them at the airport that day, and they seemed very close.”

This matter wasn’t even shared with Wen Ran by Mo Xiuchen.

He didn’t want Ranran to worry about too many things, as she was still recovering.

”Xiuchen, does Xiaoxiao know about this?”

”Not yet. I haven’t told her. I plan to tell her when Meng Ke returns from the trip.”

Meng Ke had taken Xu Wanqi to Country M on a business trip, and Mo Xiuchen had Qing Yang follow them.

If Meng Ke and Xu Wanqi turned out to have any inappropriate relationship, Qing Yang would at least capture some photos, leaving Meng Ke with no reason to keep pursuing Xiaoxiao.

”I’ve asked Qing Yang to follow them on the business trip.”

After a moment, Mo Xiuchen added lightly.

***

Next morning.

As Mo Xiuchen predicted, at the breakfast table, Ziyi brought up the topic of bringing Qingqing home again.

”Dad, now that I’ve found a way to earn money, can we bring my sister to live at home?”

”You found a way to earn money?”

Mo Xiuchen asked in mock surprise, his eyes gentle with amusement as he looked at Ziyi.

As he finished speaking, he glanced at Wen Ran on purpose.

Wen Ran blinked but didn’t say anything.

Ziyi nodded heavily, confidently saying, ”Yes, I already found a way to earn money, and soon, I’ll be able to make a lot of it.”

”Then tell us, how will you earn this money?”

Ziyi gave a sly smile and, instead of answering, asked, ”Dad, once I earn money, can I bring my sister to live here?”

”Ziyi, even if you earn money now, you’ll have to wait a year before you can bring your sister to live here. Also, you need to make sure that the money you earn is enough to support her, without any help from Dad and Mom.”

”Don’t worry, I’ll earn plenty of money and won’t need your help to take care of my sister.”

Seeing Ziyi’s confident and assured demeanor, Wen Ran couldn’t help but smile and said, ”Ziyi, isn’t it time you told Dad and Mom how you’re going to earn this money?”

”Mom, I’ll tell you first.”

Ziyi looked at Mo Xiuchen and then mysteriously gestured for Wen Ran to lean in closer with a beckoning finger.
