Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1968: Chapter 1967: Orientation Issue

Seeing Luo Haofeng looking at him, Wen Jin immediately cleared himself, “Don’t listen to Ah Kai’s nonsense.”

He wasn’t dating or in a relationship.

“Ah Kai, is he really not?”

Luo Haofeng curiously asked Gu Kai.

Gu Kai raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying nonchalantly, “Even Ziyi, so young, has a girlfriend. Do you think Ah Jin wouldn’t?”

Luo Haofeng laughed heartily, “That’s right. Didn’t they say that some bank heiress was pursuing you recently? Ah Jin, you’re not that young anymore; it’s time to consider marriage.”

Mo Xiuchen picked up the conversation, speaking slowly, “That bank heiress, wasn’t she introduced by our father?”

Those words were, of course, directed at Gu Kai.

These days, Wen Jin’s marriage was something Gu Yan took very seriously.

Wen Jin’s mouth twitched, “Don’t forget that tonight we’re celebrating for Ah Feng, so stop turning the topic to me. If you’re so idle, go home and have two more kids.”

After saying that, Wen Jin elegantly picked up the wine glass in front of him and started drinking.

Qin Mu chuckled, “Right, tonight is to celebrate for Ah Feng. Ah Feng, when exactly are you and Bai Xiaoxiao getting married? You’re not going to wait until Lingling can be a flower girl, are you?”

“He would love to marry Bai Xiaoxiao right away, but only if Bai Xiaoxiao’s parents agree,”

Mo Xiuchen said with schadenfreude.

“I think Uncle Bai and Aunt Qiao aren’t reluctant to part with Xiaoxiao; they’re more reluctant to part with Lingling. You might as well become a live-in son-in-law. As long as you agree to join the Bai family, you can get your marriage certificate with Xiaoxiao tomorrow.”

Wen Jin confidently said, having been to the Bai family, seeing how Mr. Bai dotes on his granddaughter, he was sure that Xiaoxiao now had taken the second place.

So, what Mr. Bai and Mother Bai couldn’t part with, was actually their precious granddaughter.

Luo Haofeng rolled his eyes and said proudly, “Our wedding will be settled soon. When spring comes after the New Year, it will be the best time for a wedding.”

“So, you’re going to spend this New Year all alone?”

“I’m only doing it to keep Ah Jin company. It would be pitiful for him to be lonely.”

Wen Jin sneered, “Fine, since you’re keeping me company, you’ll come to my place for the New Year. I’ll call Xiaoxiao later to tell her you don’t actually want to marry her so soon and want to spend the New Year at my place.”

“Haha, shooting yourself in the foot.”

Gu Kai laughed wantonly, and Qin Mu nearly spat out his drink.

“Ah Jin, with you saying that, people might think there’s something between you two.”

Luo Haofeng’s body shook as he immediately shifted his chair closer to Mo Xiuchen, moving further from Wen Jin, startled as he said, “Ah Jin, you’re not looking for a girlfriend because of a… preference issue, are you?”

“You’ve guessed right.”

Wen Jin nodded with a smile, his gaze fixed on Luo Haofeng, as if to say, I do have a preference issue, and I’m interested in you.

After the joke, Mo Xiuchen seriously asked Luo Haofeng, “Shouldn’t you go back to City B?”

Leaving the company unattended during the year-end doesn’t seem possible to not go back at all, right?

Luo Haofeng nodded, “I’m going back next Monday and returning in a few days.”

“I saw Qiao Siyi this afternoon. She didn’t come to G City to look for you, did she?”

“How could it be? She’s with Xiao Yuting now. I heard it was Mother Xiao who invited her over.”

When they mentioned this, Gu Kai airily interjected, “Mother Xiao invited Qiao Siyi over to G City? If that’s true, it sounds more like a trap.”

It’s not that Gu Kai knew Mother Xiao so well, but with the prestigious Xiao family, how could they accept someone like Qiao Siyi as a daughter-in-law?

“As long as she didn’t come for you, can’t you persuade your future father- and mother-in-law sooner to get registered with Xiaoxiao and marry her earlier?”

Mo Xiuchen had been exhausted by the two of them over the years, worrying every day until they tied the knot.

“Yes, Ah Mu has even prepared the wedding gift. If you don’t marry soon, if he spends the money, don’t blame us for not giving you gifts later.”

Luo Haofeng asked in puzzlement, “If Ah Mu spends the money, what does that have to do with you guys?”

“Ah Jin, you tell him.” Gu Kai, playing coy, didn’t want to explain.

Wen Jin smiled as he explained, “Back when Xiaoxiao was having her baby, we made a bet with Ah Mu, one that you wouldn’t immediately see Bai Xiaoxiao when you rushed to the ward, and the other that you’d spend the night at the hospital. We won.”

Luo Haofeng looked at them, surprised, with Gu Kai and Wen Jin both wearing faint smiles on their faces.

Qin Mu looked gloomy, only because he lost the bet.

Luo Haofeng exhaled, gritting his teeth, “You guys really are my good brothers.”

While he was on edge, not knowing what would happen to him and Xiaoxiao, these heartless friends were betting on it.

Gu Kai, with his thick skin, took Luo Haofeng’s words as a compliment, “Of course, if we weren’t your good brothers, why would we celebrate with you in this cold winter? Enough talking, let’s drink these two bottles first; we’re not leaving until we’re drunk tonight.”

**

Even though Luo Haofeng remembered Bai Xiaoxiao’s instructions not to drink, Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai wouldn’t let him off.

He either had to choose to drink or to stay up all night.

Although he suspected that these guys, all married men, couldn’t possibly stay up all night,

they were unanimous, and Mo Xiuchen even called Wen Ran right in front of him. Luo Haofeng had to believe that if he didn’t drink, he really couldn’t go home all night.

And he promised Bai Xiaoxiao to return tonight, so he had to drink.

Because he said he needed to take care of Lingling, they mercifully didn’t get him completely drunk.

When going home, Luo Haofeng had a bit of a buzz.

Mother Bai had already gone to bed, but the living room light was left on for Luo Haofeng because he said he would be back tonight when he left.

Luo Haofeng raised his hand to press his temple as he slowly walked up the stairs.

He first went to the children’s room to check on the sleeping Lingling.

At the bedroom door, Luo Haofeng adjusted his clothing before opening the door to find the warm and gentle indoor lighting.

Bai Xiaoxiao was already asleep.

Lying on her side, her face turned towards the doorway, the soft light illuminated her fair and delicate face, looking peaceful and serene, which softened a place in Luo Haofeng’s heart.

His lips unconsciously curved into a tender smile, and with gentle eyes, he softly closed the door and quietly approached the bed.

He was about to lean down to kiss the sleeping woman but remembered he had been drinking and surely reeked of alcohol, fearing Xiaoxiao would dislike it, he changed his mind, turned around, and went to the bathroom to shower.
