“You, aren’t you already better?”

Mo Jingteng’s face changed several times, unsure whether he was ashamed of his years of neglect towards him, or shocked by his words.

“Better?”

A cold smile appeared on the corner of Mo Xiuchen’s lips.

Yeah, he was better, but it was laughable and tragic that Mo Jingteng had the nerve to ask.

When Uncle Gu and the expert panel revealed the diagnosis, how did he respond? He’d never forget, his biological father told Uncle Gu, if it can’t be treated, then forget it.

After all, the Mo family still had Zixuan, and he could always father more sons.

His mother had jumped from a building, he was impaired, and Mo Jingteng had completely abandoned him, leaving him to fend for himself.

If it hadn’t been for Uncle Gu encouraging him, and the companionship of his good friends Ah Kai, Ah Feng and Ah Mu, he wouldn’t have made it this far. He wouldn’t be here now, in charge of the conglomerate and able to talk to his father.

Mo Jingteng’s eyes flickered, and Mo Xiuchen’s cold laugh unfocused him.

“Recovery isn’t that easy.”

Mo Xiuchen’s voice suddenly turned cold, “I am still taking medicine, do you believe it? I know you don’t because you’ve never cared about me. You only care about your own interests.”

Mo Jingteng stared at Mo Xiuchen in shock, he really didn’t know.

“During the last health check, I was diagnosed with an issue, just as I told you. Even if there really is a problem, it’s mine, not Ranran’s. I was really down then, but Ranran told me that if my ‘disease’ could be cured before, it can still be cured now.”

“She said, she couldn’t be with me back then, but no matter what happens in the future, she’ll be with me. We will share fortune and face adversity together, even if I am sick, she will accompany me in taking my medication. You can ask Nanny Zhang, or go to my house now to see if Nanny Zhang prepares two doses of medicine every day, one for me and the other for Ranran to share with me.”

Mo Jingteng was exceedingly shocked.

He didn’t expect this result. Earlier, Mo Zixuan’s words had infuriated him, and he had thought that if Wen Ran really was unable to conceive, he would certainly not let her stay by Mo Xiuchen’s side.

But now, what Mo Xiuchen was telling him was a completely different answer.

The one with the problem was him?

What shocked him the most was that Wen Ran was accompanying him in taking the medication.

He recalled the taste of the traditional medicine that Mo Xiuchen had to take with every meal back then. He had abandoned him in that villa to fend for himself, not even wanting to take a look at him.

Because he hated the smell of traditional medicine.

That Wen Ran, could accompany him every day to drink medicine, made him, as a father, feel extremely ashamed.

Mo Xiuchen licked his lips, suppressed his emotions, stood up and looked at Mo Jingteng with a cold gaze, “I am investigating the relationship between Xiao Wenqing, Wu Tianyi, and Fu Jingyi. They have been in City B before, and they should still be in the country now. I believe they must be in contact with Mo Zixuan.”

“If you do not want to hand over the conglomerate to the woman who betrayed you and her lover, don’t listen to the rumors. If you want to hand over the conglomerate to them, I can resign as President right now. What’s most valuable to you – fame and fortune – to me, it’s worthless. What matters to me the most is the person I love.”

After saying this, Mo Xiuchen left abruptly.

“Xiuchen!”

Mo Jingteng rose from the sofa, calling out urgently.

Mo Xiuchen walked away from the sofa, turned his head, and looked at him coldly.

“I will find out the truth, I will not let that slut Xiao Wenqing and anyone else control this company.”

He wasn’t so old that he had lost all his power, after a lifetime of having power, the last thing he could accept was being looked down upon, even by his own son.

At the Wen residence, ever since Mo Xiuchen left, Wen Ran had been distracted and losing incessantly.

Despite Gu Kai’s and Wen Jin’s help, they couldn’t stop her determination to lose all the money. “Ranran, do you have a beef with money, or do you think that Xiuchen has too much money and you’re trying to spend it all for him?”

Gu Kai teased with a smile on his face, but he couldn’t help but wonder why Mo Xiuchen left in such a hurry.

“I think Ranran believed Xiuchen’s words before he left, ‘don’t worry about losing, I’ll be here.’ Ranran, unlike Mo Xiuchen, your brother doesn’t have a lot of money. If you keep losing, I may consider letting you pay with your card.”

Watching Wen Ran make yet another blunder, Wen Jin felt utterly helpless.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s front was already piled high with money, she not only won back what she lost, but was also about to clear out all the cash in Mo Xiuchen’s wallet.

“Ranran, you’re really a great friend, I’ll treat you to dinner tomorrow.”

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled cheerfully, waving a hundred-yuan bill in her hand.

The doorbell rang suddenly, and Wen Ran ignored their teasing. She bounced up from her seat with joy in her eyes: “It must be Xiuchen coming back, I’ll go get the door.”

Gu Kai wanted to say something but seeing Wen Ran running towards the door, he just smiled and didn’t say anything.

Wen Jin paused his actions and a smile spread across his face.

When the door opened, the person standing outside was indeed Mo Xiuchen.

“Xiuchen, come in quickly.”

Wen Ran pulled him into the room and shut the door.

Seeing the joy in Wen Ran’s eyes, Mo Xiuchen felt a warmth in his heart. Without meaning to, a tender expression appeared on his handsome face, “Alright!”

“Mo Xiuchen, if you hadn’t come now, Ranran would have lost her wallet to me.”

Bai Xiaoxiao watched as the two entered from the hallway. The handsome man and the beautiful woman looked like a perfect pair, causing envy.

Wen Ran stuck her tongue out at Mo Xiuchen: “I don’t know why, but I keep losing.”

Mo Xiuchen chuckled, gently ruffling her hair, “It’s alright, I’ll help you win it back later.”

“Xiuchen, Wen Jin and I couldn’t do anything to stop her. Ever since you left, Ranran hasn’t won a single game. It’s as if she won’t stop until she’s lost all your money.”

Gu Kai looked at Wen Ran now, her eyes gentle and her smile bright, contrasting from her earlier distracted self. Mo Xiuchen ignored his teasing, his gaze focused tenderly on Wen Ran, “You guys have been playing cards since I left and haven’t eaten?”

Wen Ran shook her head, “We were waiting for you.”

When he left abruptly after receiving a phone call, she didn’t ask, but she couldn’t help worrying about him.

“I said we should save some food for you, but Ranran insisted on waiting.”

Wen Jin pretended to complain as he shot Wen Ran a look, laughing to himself about how a woman’s attention is always fully on her husband after marriage.

Mo Xiuchen smirked in pride, “Ranran is the best to me,” his gaze sweeping over Bai Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng, his eyes narrowed slightly, “You guys keep that money warm for now. After we eat, you’ll return it.”
