Chapter 115 - 115: 114 He only has you in his heart
But now that Xiao Wenqing had brought MO Jingteng into the picture, she had to agree to stay even though she didn’t want to.
Upon hearing her agreement, Xiao Wenqing was filled with joy. She ordered a few signature dishes, including three portions of shark fin soup. Once the server had left, she glanced at the fading kiss marks on Wen Ran’s neck and the new flesh on her face, expressing concern. “Ranran, I heard from Zixuan that you were kidnapped by a bad person in F City a few nights ago. Did you get the injury on your face then?”
Wen Ran responded with a calm and indifferent “Hmm”. “Just slight injuries, they have healed.”
“Don’t blame me for being nosy. Actually, Xiuchen’s dad cares about this too, he just can’t directly express his concern. So he asked me to ask you. The night you were kidnapped… those kiss marks on your neck were made…”
Xiao Wenqing’s words were subtle, but her implication could not be clearer.
The entire G City knew that MO Xiuchen was impotent. They had been married for a while, yet there hadn’t been any traces of intimacy—until after her kidnapping, when the kiss marks appeared.
She, a young girl, had been kidnapped, and reportedly drugged.
The conclusion was obvious.
Wen Ran’s eyes shifted slightly, but before she could respond, Bai Xiaoxiao interjected with disapproval, “What do you mean by this, Mrs. MO? Are you implying that Ranran was molested by the bad guys? If you want to know the story behind the kiss marks on Ranran’s neck, you should ask MO Xiuchen directly. He ought to know.”
Xiao Wenqing’s face turned awkward from Bai Xiaoxiao’s words. She covered it up with a laugh, “I didn’t mean it that way. I’m just saying that the fact that MO Xiuchen is impotent is known to everyone in G City. Ranran, don’t get me wrong, perhaps I didn’t articulate that properly—lf the marks on your neck were left by Xiuchen, it would be great news! It would mean that his condition has improved!”
In the end, Xiao Wenqing seemed genuinely delighted, as if truly happy about MO Xiuchen’s recovery.
Wen Ran’s face remained unchanged, but in her heart, she was slightly skeptical. She didn’t believe that Xiao Wenqing was genuinely pleased about MO Xiuchen’s recovery.
Though MO Xiuchen didn’t tell her much, she had a vague suspicion that he harbored not just resentment toward Xiao Wenqing but also doubt about the incident where he was kidnapped years ago.
Xiao Wenqing paused for a moment before saying: “Why don’t you come home with MO Xiuchen for dinner this weekend? Ah Lin has good news. Surely, you two must be expecting soon too, so we can celebrate together at home.”
Wen Ran was slightly surprised at this news. She knew that Ah Lin was referring to Zhou Lin. Was it true that Zhou Lin was pregnant with MO Zixuan’s child?
According to the timeline, it had only been a month.
When the dishes were served, Xiao Wenqing looked somewhat distressed. Her voice lowered as she spoke, “By rights, Ah Lin is carrying Zixuan’s child. That should be a cause for celebration for the MO Family household, but recently, Zixuan has been drinking all night, wallowing in melancholy. Ranran, the reason I asked you to come today was to ask you to talk to Zixuan.”
This time, the worry and sorrow apparent on Xiao Wenqing’s face was genuine. Even though MO Jingteng was not the man she loved, but MO Zixuan is her biological son, whom she genuinely loves.
However, the reason she had asked Wen Ran here was not solely for this matter.
Wen Ran rejected without hesitation: “If MO Zixuan is feeling unwell, you should talk to Zhou Lin. They are soon-to-be-weds. It isn’t right for me to interfere.”
Xiao Wenqing’s face showed the disappointment upon hearing Wen Ran’s refute, and pleaded: “Ranran, I know it’s not appropriate for me to ask you to speak to Zixuan, but he has only ever had you in his heart. As long as he can’t let you go, he can’t be happy. As for his engagement with Zhou Lin, it was me who had forced it.”
By the end, she was almost in tears.
The mood in the room became tense.
Seeing Wen Ran’s silence, Xiao Wenqing continued: “Zixuan is a stubborn child. Once he fixes his mind on something, no one can change it. Now that you are his brother’s wife, I would never allow him to fight with his brother over a woman. Ranran, just ask him not to drink so much, just one time. Please?”
“I beg you, could you just make him feel better for his sake?”
“Alright, but I can’t promise that he will listen to me.”
The last words from Xiao Wenqing worked. Thinking of what MO Zixuan used to be, Wen Ran felt a pang of sympathy. That night, he had been tricked into sleeping with Zhou Lin; his betrayal was unintentional.
“Ranran, thank you. You’re such a kind-hearted child, there will definitely be good karma.”
Xiao Wenqing immediately thanked Wen Ran with delight. Pressing back the sorrow, she cheerfully encouraged Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao to eat.
When the shark fin soup arrived, Xiao Wenqing displayed great enthusiasm.
“Ranran, try this shark fin soup. If you like it, I’ll order more.”
As she said this, she moved to the seat next to Wen Ran and scooped up a spoonful of the soup to feed her.
Just as Wen Ran was about to decline, her phone rang. She forced a smile and said, “I need to take a call first,” before standing up and leaving with her phone.
Xiao Wenqing’s face flickered with disappointment.
Two minutes later, Wen Ran returned to her seat. Without sitting down, she said: “Aunt Xiao, I have to leave due to some urgent matters. You continue to eat, Xiaoxiao, let’s go together!”
“Okay!”
Bai Xiaoxiao hadn’t picked up her chopsticks since Wen Ran had gotten up to leave.
Xiao Wenqing’s face shifted uncomfortably. Almost reflexively, she picked up the bowl of shark fin soup in front of her. “Ranran, have this shark fin soup before you leave. It’s highly nutritious.”
Wen Ran glanced at the shark fin soup in her hand, seeming somewhat torn. “Aunt Xiao, I really have to handle an urgent matter. Could I take the shark fin soup away with me?”
A server was just passing by their table after serving food to the next one. Wen Ran gestured for him to pack up the shark fin soup for her..
