“I’ll stay with you again tonight.”
Before Wen Ran’s smile could surface, Mo Xiuchen added quietly.
Seeing her furrowed brows, he lightly hooked his thin lips and pulled her into his embrace, “Tonight, Xiaoxiao can’t be transferred out of the intensive care unit yet. Once her condition stabilizes tomorrow, she’ll be transferred out of the ICU and then you can share a room with her.”
“Are you sleeping on the sofa again tonight?”
“Of course not, tonight, I’m with you.”
Mo Xiuchen naturally kissed her on the face. She was finally in a better mood, so how could he punish himself by sleeping on the sofa again?
“Alright then!”
Wen Ran reluctantly agreed.
Just as Mo Xiuchen was about to say something, a knock sounded from outside the ward. Symbolically, it was knocked twice. Without waiting for a response from inside, the ward door was pushed open.
Luo Haofeng walked in with his leisurely outfit, scanning over the two people cuddling on the sofa with his narrow, peach blossom eyes, and jokingly said, “Mo Xiuchen, this is a hospital. Can you please not show scenes inappropriate for children?”
Mo Xiuchen gave him a cold glance, “No one invited you.”
Wen Ran chuckled at Luo Haofeng, who had his hands in his pockets, “Did you know that Xiaoxiao is awake?”
Luo Haofeng nodded, walked over to them, and made to sit down next to Mo Xiuchen, but was coldly denied by him, “Sit across from us.”
Luo Haofeng pouted and obediently sat across from them, “I got a call from Ah Kai saying that Bai Xiaoxiao is awake. I was just nearby having dinner with friends, so I dropped by.”
Mo Xiuchen shot him a contemptuous look, he really had a knack for being opportunistic.
However, as Luo Haofeng had previously stated that he would reject Bai Xiaoxiao even if she was offered to him, it would certainly be inappropriate for him to show even the slightest interest in her in front of Mo Xiuchen now.
“Where’s Ah Mu then, is he still working overtime at the office?”
Mo Xiuchen couldn’t be bothered to expose Luo Haofeng as he asked lazily.
“No, we just got off work together, and he went straight home.”
“So you rushed here directly from the office, not dining out with friends?”
Wen Ran looked at Mo Xiuchen who had a meaningful smile playing at the corner of his mouth, and couldn’t help but laugh. The time didn’t seem too late, and Luo Haofeng had used the word ‘just’, clearly, it wasn’t as he had claimed, receiving a call from Gu Kai while dining with friends.
He probably had just finished work, received a call, and hurried to the hospital.
Regardless, the fact that he cared so much about Xiaoxiao made Wen Ran very happy.
This time, it was Luo Haofeng who glared hard at Mo Xiuchen. Damn it, he’d been tricked by Mo Xiuchen again. This man was absolutely detestable.
“You were the one who misspoke, why glare at me?”
A pleased curve lifted the corner of Mo Xiuchen’s mouth.
“What misspoke? Hey, Ah Feng, you are really quick.”
The ward door was pushed open again. Gu Kai, in a white coat, appeared elegantly in their line of sight. When his eyes swept over Luo Haofeng, he wears a look of surprise.
“Ah Kai, wasn’t he nearby when you called?”
Mo Xiuchen asked casually, his tone devoid of any provocation.
Gu Kai walked towards them, answering, “No, when I called, he had just walked out of the company. I heard him ask Ah Mu if he wanted to come to the hospital. Ah Mu said he wouldn’t.”
Luo Haofeng’s lie was exposed, and he could hardly keep his face in check. He abruptly stood up, cast a cold glance at Mo Xiuchen, shot an annoyed look at Gu Kai, then quickly left the ward after throwing out a line, “I’m going upstairs.”
Gu Kai looked puzzled at Luo Haofeng’s retreating figure.
His simple remark had earned him a cold glare from Luo Haofeng?
“What’s with Ah Feng?”
Gu Kai furrowed his brows, looked at Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran, and sat down in Luo Haofeng’s previous spot.
Mo Xiuchen gave a lazy smile, saying, “He lied earlier, saying he received your call while he was having dinner with friends nearby and dropped by to see Bai Xiaoxiao. Then, unwittingly, he revealed his lie.”
“Haha, is Ah Feng really that cute?”
After laughing, Gu Kai looked to Wen Ran, “Ranran, could you pour me a glass of water, I’m a bit thirsty.”
“Sure!”
Wen Ran stood up, poured him a glass of water, returned to the sofa, and said, “You guys carry on. I’m going to check upstairs to see if Uncle Bai and Aunt Qiao have come out of the ward. Luo Haofeng probably wants to see Xiaoxiao.”
“Be careful.”
Mo Xiuchen reminded her worriedly.
Gu Kai just sat there with a smile, watching Wen Ran walk out of the ward. He picked up the water glass and took a sip. Not until the footstep sounds faded did he say softly, “Mo Xiuchen, you don’t have to be so nervous. I’ve rearranged the hospital’s surveillance system. There are also security guards on each floor, especially these two floors that have your people.”
“Being cautious is always good.”
Mo Xiuchen pursed his lips, he couldn’t afford to be careless at all, not until they find Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi.
“Didn’t you and Ranran agree to have a medical checkup together?”
Gu Kai came to the point. Wen Ran was smart. The moment he had asked her to pour water for him earlier, she had guessed that Gu Kai might have something to talk to Mo Xiuchen about.
Gu Kai just came from his office, it was impossible for him to be so thirsty that he needed to have her pour him water immediately.
Even if he was, he would pour it himself.
Mo Xiuchen’s eyes flashed with contemplation, and his handsome brows lightly furrowed, “Originally, the plan was to have a health examination with her and the others from her drug company after this busy period. But now that Bai Xiaoxiao is in this condition, Ranran certainly won’t be in the mood. You want to have another checkup for Ranran?”
“It’s not me, it’s my dad’s idea.”
Gu Kai told Mo Xiuchen about Gu Yan’s concerns.
He had only heard about Wen Ran’s condition from Wen Jin. Even though they had indeed contacted the doctor who had diagnosed Wen Ran years ago, who was also a friend of Wen Jin’s father, Gu Yan was still worried. Wen Ran had been taking drugs for six years under the manipulation of Fu Jingyi, who had even injected medicines into her body in the later period. Gu Yan was very worried.
After his words, Mo Xiuchen fell into a long silence.
Gu Kai stayed quiet, sitting there, giving him time to think.
After a long period of silence
Mo Xiuchen’s rigid voice broke the silence, “Rather than being uncertain like this, it would be better to do as I initially suggested and withhold the truth. Apart from being a bit thin, Ranran hasn’t had any serious illnesses over the years. Fu Jingyi’s intentions were clear, and all I want is Ranran.”
The rest, he didn’t care about.
“Mo Xiuchen, I know that you care about Ranran more than anything. In fact, I also think that as long as Ranran is happy and safe, nothing else matters.”
“Then you tell Uncle Gu …”
“It’s not because of my dad, it’s because of Ranran. What we don’t care about, she does!”
Gu Kai’s words made Mo Xiuchen’s face change!
