No matter what MO Xiuchen’s original intentions were for marrying her, at this moment, she deeply believed that he wouldn’t harm her. Just like the words he said before Cheng Jia, even if the whole world would harm him, she, Wen Ran, wouldn’t.

Years later, Wen Ran could still remember this night, the two minutes of silent eye contact between her and MO Xiuchen. At that moment, she realized that she had fallen for this man.

“Ranran, your brother is fine. I talked to him for a bit, he’s not aware of anything.”

As soon as Gu Kai entered the room, he sensed the subtle atmosphere. His

long, narrowed eyes swept across MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran’s faces, and he explained in a gentle tone.

It was best if Wen Jin didn’t know anything.

MO Xiuchen gently pulled Wen Ran up to her feet and said blandly, “I will leave the matter here to you. It’s getting late, Wen Ran and I should be heading back.

Let me know if there is any news.”

“I will stay here!”

Qin Mu suddenly spoke up, feeling that he too had a responsibility. Upon leaving the hotel, MO Xiuchen entrusted Wen Ran to his protection, only for such an incident to occur.

MO Xiuchen didn’t object, tacitly agreeing to Qin Mu’s proposal.

Gu Kai stepped aside, “Ranran has been frightened. It would be good for her to go back home and rest early. Don’t worry, no matter where the person hides, I will certainly drag her out.”

Daring to act on his turf, the person was very bold.

On the way home, MO Xiuchen only drove in silence, focusing on the road and not speaking.

Wen Ran sat in the passenger seat, leaning slightly to watch MO Xiuchen’s tightly pursed lips. The clear angles of his profile gave off a trace of cold perseverance, which prompted a sense of compassion to rise in her heart involuntarily.

To break the stifling atmosphere, she moistened her lips and asked, “On the way to the hospital, Luo Haofeng said you went to see Cheng Jia. I saw that he seemed interested in the situation, so I sent him over there. Is he at Cheng Jia’s home now?”

MO Xiuchen turned his head, his deep eyes reflecting Wen Ran’s exquisite and fair face. The chill in his eyebrows unconsciously faded, and he softly asked, “Aren’t you angry about me going to see Cheng Jia?”

After Wen Ran had explained the situation two or three times, he no longer felt that she didn’t care about him. Instead, he trusted her. She was not nosy or jealous not because she was indifferent, but because she trusted him.

Wen Ran laughed lightly, her tone upbeat, “Why should I be angry? If you went to see her, you must have had your reasons. I’ve said I trust you, and I truly mean it.”

MO Xiuchen’s mood improved because of Wen Ran’s words. Infected by her positivity, a faint smile appeared on his lips. He casually said, “You’re right. When I went to see her, I had no intentions towards her. I just went because she upset you in the afternoon. As your husband, I can’t allow you to be bullied.”

“Ha, if Cheng Jia knew that you heard her speaking on the phone earlier, I bet she wouldn’t dare to say those words even if it killed her. But how did you exact revenge on my behalf?”

Curious, Wen Ran asked. Although Luo Haofeng had told her a little about it, and Gu Kai had mentioned some things, none of them had gone into detail. She preferred to hear MO Xiuchen explain it.

Under Wen Ran’s expectant gaze, MO Xiuchen felt an inexplicable ripple in his heart, his eyes deepening. Dodging her question, he said in a meaningful tone, “Ranran, if you continue to look at me with such admiring eyes, I might just have to stop the car.”

Wen Ran was taken aback. Blinking her eyes, she understood the implication behind his words. Her white cheeks suddenly turned red. Turning away, she said cheekily, “Who looked at you with admiring eyes? I just want to know how you took revenge for me.”

MO Xiuchen laughed. They were about to reach a crossroad where they usually turned left to go home. On a whim, he turned the wheel to the right and hinted, “If you really want to know, why not go see it with me?”

“Sure!”

Although Wen Ran found his smile somewhat strange, she was too curious to resist, so she agreed readily.

The car drove very fast. In less than fifteen minutes, they arrived at the apartment where Cheng Jia lived. MO Xiuchen explained, “There is Cheng Jia’s home up ahead and Ah Feng is in that car.”

As he spoke, he parked the car behind the luxury car.

As soon as they stopped, Luo Haofeng got out of the luxury car and walked up to theirs. He pull opened the passenger door, smiled at Wen Ran, and greeted her. “Wen Ran, let me let you listen to something good.” Leaning into the car, he put a Bluetooth headset in Wen Ran’s ear.

“What is it?”

Wen Ran was taken aback, looking at Luo Haofeng’s wicked smile confusedly. The next second, she couldn’t believe the voice coming from the headset… “What crap are you making Ranran listen to?”

MO Xiuchen glared at Luo Haofeng. He pulled out the Bluetooth headset from Wen Ran’s ear, then took the cellphone from him and turned it off directly.

“Is this your phone?”

Though she had only heard a tiny bit, Wen Ran was no longer an inexperienced young girl who didn’t understand what the voice in her ears represented. Her cheeks reddened instantly.

Seeing MO Xiuchen taking the phone, she asked in surprise.

“Mm, I use this phone for business. I had Ah Feng take it upstairs to keep me updated on Liu’s situation while he was there. Who would’ve thought that he would be so honest and not hang up the call?

MO Xiuchen didn’t listen, he just cut off the call.

Even if he hadn’t listened, he could guess from Luo Haofeng’s meaningful smile and Wen Ran’s flushed face what was happening upstairs, as it aligned with his plans.

“Liu…”

Wen Ran started to say Liu’s name but stopped suddenly. Remembering Cheng Jia’s guest was Liu, she wasn’t sure what to say.

‘Who would have thought that Liu, a man inexperienced with women, could be so proficient? It must be due to the aphrodisiac. Seems like he and Cheng Jia won’t finish before two or three in the morning.”

Luo Haofeng’s smile was evil, he enjoyed this sort of drama wholeheartedly.

A twitch appeared at the corner of Wen Ran’s mouth. A moment later, she voiced her concern, “When Cheng Jia wakes up tomorrow and realizes it was Liu, she’s definitely going to hate him. She might even resent you.”

MO Xiuchen snorted disdainfully, “It serves her right. Pairing her with Liu is me showing her leniency. If she wasn’t useful still, I wouldn’t have burdened Liu. ”

“Liu isn’t exactly put-upon, though Cheng Jia is somewhat shameless, she is a beauty after all. Liu is such an honest person, marrying such a beautiful woman is a good match.”

Luo Haofeng’s eyes were full of interest. It seemed like the drama of tonight wasn’t enough, he wanted to see Cheng Jia’s reaction in the morning, as well as Liu’s wedding to her.

“A good match?”

Wen Ran didn’t agree with Luo Haofeng’s words. Given her understanding of Cheng Jia from their past conversations, she wasn’t the kind of woman who would marry a man simply because they had slept together. Plus, she wasn’t someone who would accept her fate willingly. In the afternoon, Cheng Jia had vowed that she would win MO Xiuchen over..
