Chapter 394: Know her 393
Translator: 549690339
A wave of emotions stirred within Mo Jingteng’s heart as he stared at Mo Zixuan, his gaze becoming peculiar. The little girl from back then… was she still alive?
Then, the police busted the den, which led to a large fire.
Among the bodies found, there were several children. It was impossible to identify who was who. Gu Yan later recognized signs that Fu Jingyi had been living there…
Afterwards, Gu Yan never found his daughter. His wife passed away prematurely due to the distress of these events.
For these years, Gu Kai has steadfastly believed his sister is alive, just like Mo Xiuchen, stubbornly believing that his sister and the little girl who saved Mo Xiuchen are the same person.
This isn’t a television drama, how could it be such a coincidence?
Mo Zixuan noticed Mo Jingteng’s reaction, a cold sneer bubbled up within him as he casually remarked, “It’s not strange that Wen Ran is Gu Yan’s daughter. What’s strange is why the Gu Family doesn’t dare disclose Wen Ran’s identity. Some days ago, when the Gu Family held a birthday party for Wen Ran, they didn’t disclose her parentage either.”
Mo Jingteng sighed. If Wen Ran really was Gu Yan’s daughter, even if he didn’t like the girl, he would have to respect Gu Yan and let her stay by Mo Xiuchen’s side.
“Didn’t Gu Yan worry that if Fu Jingyi knew of Wen Ran’s existence, he would hurt her again?”
“Who is Fu Jingyi?”
Mo Zixuan asked with feigned curiosity. After all, his mother, Xiao Wenqing, had already told him most of the details, so he was hardly ignorant of who Fu Jingyi was.
Mo Jingteng’s expression became detached, as if he was lost in memories. “Fu Jingyi, just like Gu Yan, was a medical genius. Back in the day, they were in the same department and both fell in love with Gu Yan’s wife…”
“Ranran, the calligraphy your husband Mo Xiuchen wrote is really beautiful! My goodness, you’re super lucky to have married such a perfect man. Ask him quickly, is there anything he can’t do? How can other men even compete!”
In the hospital room, Bai Xiaoxiao exaggeratedly cried out, while Wen Ran laughed, hearing Xiaoxiao praising Mo Xiuchen brought even greater joy than if she were praising Wen Ran herself.
“You haven’t even seen his calligraphy, how do you know it’s beautiful?”
Wen Ran teased her with a smile.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at her as if she were seeing a strange animal, then she picked up a phone and after a few touches, showed her the screen: “Look for yourself. Someone recorded a video of Mo Xiuchen writing a couplet and posted it online. You may not realize it, but if Mo Xiuchen entered the entertainment industry, I bet all male celebrities would have to pack their bags and go home.”
Wen Ran paused in surprise as she watched the video. On display, Mo Xiuchen was bent over writing, his fingers clear and distinct as they held the brush, his handsome brows giving off a distinguished and elegant air. His writing flowed like drifting clouds and streaming water, the characters firm yet effortlessly graceful…
Indeed, just watching him write was a pleasure.
“How about it, have you fallen in love yet? You need to thank the netizen who posted this video, otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to witness Mo Xiuchen’s charming appeal when he writes calligraphy.”
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled as she watched Wen Ran. Seeing Wen Ran’s captivated gaze fixated on the video, she couldn’t help but add, “Don’t just watch the video, you should also read the comments. Those women are going crazy, many of them said they want to sleep with Mo Xiuchen.”
Wen Ran furrowed her brows, looked at Bai Xiaoxiao and then back at the comments. As Xiaoxiao had described, a large number of particularly audacious female netizens were boldly expressing their admiration for Mo Xiuchen. Some even claimed they would die without regrets if they could spend a night with a man like him.
“Why are these people so frivolous.”
Wen Ran hissed. After all, Mo Xiuchen was a married man! She found the comments to be a smack in the face to him.
“That’s just how the internet is, Ranran. They’re all talk and won’t actually do anything to Mo Xiuchen, so don’t take it to heart or let it affect your mood.”
Seeing her furrowed brows, Bai Xiaoxiao hurriedly tried to comfort her.
“No, I’m going to make them delete this video. Posting a video without permission is a breach of privacy.”
The more Wen Ran looked, the more upset she became- especially at the various comments which made her downright uncomfortable.
Just as she was standing up, the hospital room door was pushed open from the outside. Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai came in. Seeing her knitted eyebrows and the dissatisfaction on her delicate face, Mo Xiuchen’s deep eyes swirled with inquiry. He smiled and asked, “Ranran, what’s wrong?”
Wen Ran pursed her lips and remained silent as she watched Mo Xiuchen approach.
“Let me guess, are you upset about the video?”
Mo Xiuchen came to her side, his eyes catching a glimpse of the phone in her hand. He took it and handed it back to Bai Xiaoxiao. Then he lightly tapped a finger on her crumpled forehead and said, “I’ve already made a call. The video will be taken down in a few minutes.”
Wen Ran’s eyes widened in surprise, “You’re having it removed?”
Mo Xiuchen grinned slightly, brushing her hair tenderly, “I thought you wouldn’t like other women seeing me writing for you. And those chaotic comments were annoying me too, so I had it removed.”
Wen Ran’s features instantly relaxed, a smile appearing on her face. From the bed, Bai Xiaoxiao teased, “Ranran, you must be happy now. Mo Xiuchen understands you; he’d already taken action before you said you wanted the video taken down.”
“Of course, Xiuchen is my husband. If you’re envious, you should hurry up and get married too.”
Wen Ran unhesitatingly responded. Hearing her words, Mo Xiuchen burst into laughter. With a pull of his hand, he drew her into his embrace, openly gazing at her with affection as he disregarded the two others in the room, he said, “Nanny Zhang called to ask if we wanted to come back for dinner. I told her not to prepare us dinner for tonight, as Wen Jin will be treating.”
“My brother is doing that? How come I didn’t know?”
“There’s a lot you don’t know. He invited you, so I accepted for you,” Mo Xiuchen added. Wen Ran cast him a reproachful look, raised her head to look at Gu Kai, “Brother, do you have duty tonight?”
Gu Kai’s eyes flickered, he responded with a smile, “Your brother also informed me. I’m not on duty tonight. In a while, I’ll come with you all. I’m curious about the home you grew up in. I’ve never been there before.”
“Xiaoxiao, you should come too!”
Wen Ran smiled and turned back to Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze unintentionally swept over Gu Kai. Seeing Wen Ran’s bright eyes looking at her, she nodded and agreed, “Sure, but wherever I go will be a bother to everyone.”
“I don’t mind you,” Wen Ran glared at her, and beside them, Gu Kai casually asked, “Xiuchen, where is Ah Feng? Did he return home?”
Mo Xiuchen responded unhurriedly, “If you want to know where he is, it takes just a phone call. Ah Feng loves being part of exciting events, so it would be good to invite him. I will call him and ask.”
As he said this, he immediately took out his phone and dialed Luo Haofeng’s number.
