Chapter 116 - 116: 115 Identification
Wen Ran nodded and said, “Okay!”
Wen Ran took the packed shark’s fin soup and bid Xiao Wenqing goodbye, leaving with Bai Xiaoxiao.
After two steps, Bai Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw Xiao Wenqing watching them. She wasn’t expecting her to look back suddenly and her dark gaze was revealed.
“Ranran, did you notice that Xiao Wenqing seems very interested in the shark’s fin soup? When I turned my back, her eyes looked so cold.”
Before leaving Yi Pin Xuan, Bai Xiaoxiao told Wen Ran about what she saw.
Wen Ran slightly pursed her lips and answered Bacoff-topic, “It was Big
Brother Chen, Sister Li’s husband, who called me earlier.”
Bai Xiaoxiao blinked in confusion. “Ranran, what does that have to do with Xiao Wenqing?
Wen Ran curled her lips into a smile, but it didn’t reach her cool eyes. She had a chilling reply, “Big Brother Chen told me that the shark’s fin soup was tampered with.”
“What? The shark’s fin soup was tampered with? Did Xiao Wenqing plan to harm you? What was added and why would she do that?”
Wen Ran shook her head, “I don’t know why and we can’t prove that it was Xiao Wenqing. ”
Chen Bin, Li Qian’s husband, is a chef. He just happened to be at Yi Pin Xuan to meet his friends and overheard someone mentioning Wen Ran’s name in the bathroom.
When he returned to the kitchen, he immediately asked about it and learned that the shark’s fin soup was indeed for Wen Ran’s table since she used to be a frequent customer and the servers knew her.
Chen Bin immediately called Wen Ran.
Bai Xiaoxiao angrily said: “No wonder Xiao Wenqing was so eager for you to drink the soup earlier. She even tried to feed it to you. This definitely has something to do with her.”
She looked at the bag in Wen Ran’s hand and asked, “Ranran, what are you going to do with the shark’s fin soup? Are you going to have it tested?”
Wen Ran replied with a ‘hmm’ and mentioned an old saying about catching a
thief red-handed and that even if she knew Xiao Wenqing wanted to harm her, she couldn’t do anything without evidence.
Besides, Chen Bin didn’t see who was on the phone at the time.
“Ranran, Xiao Wenqing probably hates you for causing her son’s suffering. Since she wants to harm you, you shouldn’t try to dissuade MO Zixuan anymore.”
The more Bai Xiaoxiao thought about it, the angrier she became. Her pretty face was full of fury.
“I don’t have time to deal with him now. Xiaoxiao, you can go home first. I’ll wait for the test results.”
“All right, but remember to inform me once you get the results.”
Bai Xiaoxiao gently reminded her; she also needed to inform her father about the results of their meeting with the client.
Wen Ran’s driver had been waiting outside. As soon as he saw her coming, he drove the car to the side of the road.
After getting into the car, Wen Ran told the driver to ‘drive to the hospital’. She took out her phone and dialed a number.
‘Miss Wen, are you going to the hospital to bring food for President Wen?” The driver glanced at the food box in her hand and asked with confusion.
Wen Ran simply said two words. Perhaps the driver had sensed her cold tone, he did not ask further and started the car.
Wen Ran dialed a number but soon hung up. She frowned slightly and sent a text message instead.
A few minutes later, her phone rang.
She pursed her lips, answered the call and greeted softly, “Hello, Older Brother
“Ranran, I just came out from the operating room, do you want to know about Cheng Jia’s situation?”
Gu Kai’s deep and warm voice transmitted over the phone.
Wen Ran’s eyes slightly widened in surprise, but then she smiled lightly and said, “No, Older Brother Gu, I have something else I need your help with. Is MO Xiuchen with you?”
“He’s in my office right now. Cheng Jia’s surgery isn’t over yet. If you come to the hospital now, you’ll inevitably run into him. Why don’t you tell me where you are, and I’ll meet you there?”
Earlier, Wen Ran had texted him stating she had something to discuss with him and didn’t want MO Xiuchen to find out.
He initially thought that Wen Ran wanted to know about Cheng Jia’s situation, but she had other matters instead.
“Alright then, please wait for me at the coffee shop across from the hospital. I’ll be there in a few minutes.”
After ending the call, Gu Kai returned to his office to find MO Xiuchen sitting on the couch with a gloomy expression. Since Cheng Jia had entered the operating room, he hadn’t relaxed at all.
It wasn’t clear what he was thinking, but he didn’t even notice Gu Kai entering the office.
“Xiuchen, you wait here. I have something to do and need to go out.”
Gu Kai went to the coat rack, put on his coat, and said to MO Xiuchen on the couch.
Upon hearing this, he raised his head to look at Gu Kai. “Are you off work now?”
Gu Kai smiled and said, “No, I’ll be back soon. And you don’t need to look so worried. I already told you Cheng Jia won’t die or become a vegetable. She just needs to rest for about two or three months.”
He actually knew why MO Xiuchen was so anxious. He deliberately used a light-hearted tone in hopes that MO Xiuchen would stop being so gloomy.
“You go on, I’ll go outside the operating room. Cheng Jia should be coming out soon.”
MO Xiuchen’s mood didn’t improve after hearing his words. Smothered dejection lingered in his low voice. As he spoke, he rose from the couch.
The two of them left the office together. MO Xiuchen took the elevator upstairs while Gu Kai rode it down.
Gu Kai waited in the coffee shop for about ten minutes before Wen Ran arrived.
Seeing her carrying a food box, his eyes shone and he greeted her with a smile,
“Ranran, please sit down!”
Wen Ran responded with a gentle smile, placed the food box on the table, and sat down opposite him. She politely said, “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Older Brother Gu.
Gu Kai shrugged and called a waiter over, asking her what she would like to drink.
Wen Ran ordered a cup of coffee and thanked the server. After the server left, Gu Kai glanced at the food box on her table and casually asked, “Did you come here from Yi Pin Xuan?”
Wen Ran took the box out of the bag, opened it, and a fragrant smell filled the air. Gu Kai looked puzzled, “Ranran, this shark’s fin soup?”
“Older Brother Gu, please smell this shark’s fin soup.”
Wen Ran slid the box towards him. Gu Kai’s eyes flickered and he picked up the shark’s fin soup and smelled it.
A moment later, his handsome eyebrows knitted slightly. “This shark’s fin soup has several kinds of herbs added. I can confirm one of them is musk, but there are other drugs that I can’t identify right now..”
