Chapter 514: 513 He will meet another sunshine
When she arrived at Wen’s house, Wen Ran was squatting in her small garden, lost in thought while staring at her plants.
Auntie Li opened the door for her. She walked behind Wen Ran and saw her in the sunlight, dressed in a white high-collared sweater. Her slender figure squatting there strangely gave people a feeling of pity.
Seeing her like this, Shen Yuting was reminded of Mo Xiuchen whom she had just met at the hospital. The aura they emitted was similar.
“Ranran!”
She stood for a moment before calling out to her.
Upon hearing her voice, Wen Ran looked up at her. She was slightly surprised to see Shen Yuting and barely managed a smile. “Sister Ting, why are you here?”
Speech ended, she got up. She had been squatting for quite a while. As she stood up, she realized that her legs felt numb and almost fell back down. Fortunately, Shen Yuting swiftly held her up. “Ranran, be careful.”
Wen Ran chuckled, “I squatted too long, I feel a little numb.”
“Let me help you sit at that small table over there.”
Shen Yuting helped Wen Ran to the small round table a few meters away, let her sit down in the rattan chair, and then pulled over another chair for herself.
“Sister Ting, there’s flower tea in this pot. Do you want coffee or this?”
As soon as Wen Ran sat down, she stretched out her hand to grab the teapot.
“I’ll have tea, it’s good for the skin!”
Shen Yuting responded with a smile, looking tenderly at Wen Ran pouring tea for her. She accepted the cup, brought it to her nose to smell it. The scent of roses filled her nostrils. The smile on her face instantly became brighter. “Smells so good!”
Wen Ran gently smiled and explained, “My mother used to love drinking flower tea when she was alive. Influenced by her, I also started to like it.”
“Ranran, it has been a while since we last met, I feel that you have lost weight. You are not trying to lose weight, are you?”
Shen Yuting took a sip of the tea. It was sweet and fragrant, the taste was really good.
Wen Ran’s eyes flickered, she responded, with a cheerful tone, “Not at all, I am the kind of person who never gains weight no matter how much I eat, there’s no need for me to intentionally lose weight. Sister Ting, don’t you have work today?”
“No!”
Shen Yuting shook her head.
“I heard from Older Brother Gu that you’re in a relationship. You look more beautiful as well, it’s true that a woman in love is the most beautiful.”
Wen Ran analyzed Shen Yuting. The look in her eyes was more tender and charming than before, seemingly, she was getting along well with her boyfriend.
“Yes, I am in a relationship. Ranran, how are you and Mo Xiuchen doing?”
Shen Yuting openly admitted. She found that being with Jiang Liu was quite good, although it wasn’t as deeply infatuated as Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen’s relationship, she didn’t mind being with Jiang Liu.
In her heart, Mo Xiuchen was not entirely forgotten, just hidden in the depths of her heart, she was trying hard to discover the good aspects in Jiang Liu and to like him.
Jiang Liu used to be a troublemaker, but ever since he promised to change his ways, he had been working very hard. Just yesterday, he even said that once he got his salary, he would buy a gift for her.
Upon mentioning Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran’s eyes flashed a hint of pain. But in an instant, it was hidden away. She calmly said, “Mo Xiuchen and I are in the process of divorce.”
“Ranran, marriage is a lifelong matter, have you thought it through?”
Shen Yuting narrowed her eyes as the words rushed out of her mouth.
“I’ve thought it through very clearly. Since marriage is a lifelong matter, I can’t let him continue to suffer because of me. Being in a short-term pain is better than a long term one. The shorter time we spend together, the less time he has to suffer.”
She had been married to him for just a few months, Mo Xiuchen’s current sorrow was just temporary…
“Ranran, Mo Xiuchen went to the hospital to do a check-up this afternoon, I heard from my cousin it was per your suggestion. I didn’t know about anything that was going on until I accidentally overheard their conversation in my cousin’s office today. That’s when I found out about your plans to divorce Mo Xiuchen.”
Reaching this point, Shen Yuting no longer concealed her purpose of coming.
From the moment Shen Yuting appeared at her house, Wen Ran knew that she had come because of this. However, regarding what she said, that Mo Xiuchen had done a check-up, she was still slightly surprised.
“Ranran, if this was before, and you and Mo Xiuchen were getting a divorce, I would undoubtedly be delighted. Even more so, I would hope that you would divorce him as soon as possible, hoping that the further away from him you are, the better.”
Shen Yuting’s words left Wen Ran startled.
Shen Yuting paused before adding, “To be honest, even now, I haven’t entirely forgotten Mo Xiuchen. However, I don’t have the slightest intention of taking him away from you now. Do you know what my first thought was when I saw him this afternoon?”
“What?”
Wen Ran couldn’t help but ask.
“I felt that he suddenly went back to the past, before he met you. Remember I once told you, you changed Mo Xiuchen, after he was with you, he became warm, no longer the indifferent and cruel person he used to be. However, when I saw him in my cousin’s office earlier, he no longer had any warmth.”
Wen Ran lowered her eyelids, her lips slightly pursing.
“Ranran, you are like Mo Xiuchen’s sunshine, irreplaceable. If you leave him, his world will return to being cold. Can you bear to see him return to a cold world?”
There was a hint of pain in Shen Yuting’s voice. She had just confessed that she was still in love with Mo Xiuchen. Seeing the person she loved in pain, her heart ached as well.
Under the sunlight, Wen Ran’s face was notably pale. Her voice was as soft as a gentle breeze, “Sister Ting, Mo Xiuchen won’t always be like this, he will encounter another sunshine that belongs to him, which will illuminate his world.”
“Ranran, you are really cruel.”
Shen Yuting’s eyes suddenly reddened, her tone accusatory.
Wen Ran stiffened, she raised her head sharply, in her eyes, which still suffered from swelling, a glossy sheen could be seen. In the sunlight, they appeared like shining pearls. She looked at Shen Yuting’s face, her own eyes also filling with tears.
Her lips trembled, in the end, she didn’t say anything.
“Ranran, it’s just us two here, let’s be honest, do you have some difficulties? Don’t say it’s because Fu Jingyi poisoned you, and you may have only a few years left, I don’t believe you would leave Mo Xiuchen because of this.”
“I…”
Wen Ran gazed up at the sky, but the next moment, the sunlight forced her to avert her gaze.
“My cousin said you’ve done a check-up a few days ago and the poison in your body had lessened. But on that day, you suggested to Mo Xiuchen to do a check-up as well, and at noon, you even lost your temper at him.”
Wen Ran’s color changed. Shen Yuting continued, “Being a woman, I understand your feelings more than they do. You should have been happy that your condition improved, so why did you lose your temper at Mo Xiuchen and suggest he do a check-up? Tell me, is it because being with him is affecting you?”
