Chapter 534: 533 Special Features
“I’ll send you a photo, and you’ll understand,”
Gu Kai didn’t tell Wen Ran directly; he was shocked when he just saw Jiang Liu’s file.
The sound of the notification chimed. Wen Ran looked at the photo Gu Kai sent her, immediately shocked as she looked up at Mo Xiuchen. Mo Xiuchen, his eyes deeply fixed on the photo on her phone.
“Ah Kai, who is this Jiang Liu?”
Mo Xiuchen’s sudden voice made Gu Kai jump slightly on the other end of the phone, slightly surprised, “Mo Xiuchen, how come you’re there too?”
“Why can’t I be here?”
Mo Xiuchen’s voice seemed a little heavy, he didn’t know who this man was, but he was upset that Wen Ran was investigating him.
Furthermore, this guy… even somewhat resembles him.
“Well, you should ask Ranran about this. I know less than her.” Gu Kai, who had been avoiding Mo Xiuchen these past few days, noticed Mo Xiuchen’s displeasure, passed the buck to Wen Ran, and then hung up the call.
“…”
Wen Ran opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything, the screen showed that the call had ended.
“Ranran!”
Mo Xiuchen restrained his gloomy mood and gazed deeply at Wen Ran.
Wen Ran sighed lightly and told him the truth, “This morning, I received a strange call. The person told me to be careful about Cheng Jia. They said that she never gave up on you, and that she will try to seduce you at the victory banquet tonight.”
Her voice became somewhat low as she uttered those last few words.
Mo Xiuchen’s eyes darkened even more. His mind momentarily filtered out all other information and seized the crux, “Ranran, is this why you suggested accompanying me to the victory banquet tonight?”
Joy bubbled up inside him.
This indicated that Ranran still cared about him, very much so. She did not want any other woman to come near him or try to do something to him.
Although he wouldn’t fall for it.
Still, knowing she was so nervous and so concerned, he felt inexplicably happy.
Wen Ran felt a bit uncomfortable under his fiery gaze, diverting the topic, she asked: “Why does this Jiang Liu look like you, and now that I think about it, I feel like not only does he look a bit like you, but his voice also resembles yours.”
“Really? Does this man know Cheng Jia?”
Mo Xiuchen’s eyes weighed heavy for a moment. As astute as he was, Mo Xiuchen quickly guessed the implications of Cheng Jia knowing such a man. She certainly didn’t fall for him merely because he resembled Mo Xiuchen.
This could be seen from her various overtures towards him.
If she was not in love, yet had an affair with the man, there was only one conclusion: she wanted to use that man’s appearance to achieve something. With that conjecture in mind, the rest was easy to guess.
Wen Ran was still in shock, “Mo Xiuchen, you said this person’s photo resembles you quite a bit. Would he be even more similar to you in person? I’m suddenly a little curious. Ah, you don’t have a twin brother or something, do you?”
“No!”
Mo Xiuchen frowned, his mother only gave birth to him, he doesn’t have a twin brother.
“It’s actually pretty normal for two people to look alike. But what is the relationship between Cheng Jia and this Jiang Liu? Older Brother Gu only sent me a photo and hasn’t given me the rest of the information yet!”
It took Wen Ran a while to recall this after staring at the photo for so long.
Mo Xiuchen looked at her amused, “It doesn’t matter, we can go to the hospital and find him.”
“Go to the hospital to find him?”
Wen Ran blinked in confusion. Why all of a sudden go to the hospital? Couldn’t they just call him?
“Didn’t Ah Kai say that this Jiang Liu is special? He only sent a photo to you, not his file. That means Jiang Liu isn’t only special in his looks; there are more peculiar things about him, Ranran. Don’t you want to know?”
Mo Xiuchen piqued her interest, and she agreed with a smile, “Alright, let’s go to the hospital now to find Older Brother Gu.”
**
Mo Xiuchen did not bring Qing Feng and Qing Yang or Little Liu, but drove by himself, relishing in the rare time spent alone with Wen Ran.
Wen Ran sat in the passenger seat, slightly different than usual. Today, she was gazing out of the window instead of at him.
He felt a tinge of disappointment in his heart, but it was quickly dissipated by the satisfaction of having her by his side. The fact that Ranran wasn’t looking at him didn’t stop him from looking at her.
He deliberately drove very slowly. His luxurious Aston maintained the speed of a turtle, allowing other cars to pass easily. He was in no rush, his sensuous lips slightly curled up at the corner, occasionally glancing tenderly at Wen Ran.
When they arrived at the hospital, Gu Kai was having his afternoon nap.
Seeing Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran appear at his office door, Gu Kai furrowed his eyebrows, yawned, and asked them to take a seat.
“You only sent Ranran a photo just now. Where’s Jiang Liu’s detailed file?”
Mo Xiuchen led Wen Ran by hand to sit on the couch in front. He naturally extended his arm around her shoulder, lifted his eyes and looked sharply at Gu Kai.
Gu Kai opened the drawer, fetched Jiang Liu’s file, walked over to the sofa, and handed it to Mo Xiuchen, “This Jiang Liu, is not only acquainted with Cheng Jia but is also currently dating Yuting.”
“Sister Ting? Older Brother Gu, are you saying that he is Sister Ting’s boyfriend?”
Wen Ran opened her eyes wide in shock, not having time to look at the material in Mo Xiuchen’s hand, she stared at Gu Kai.
Gu Kai nods, “Yuting has been unwilling to tell me what kind of man her boyfriend is, or let us meet him. I originally thought it was because their relationship wasn’t stable yet, but now, I think her fear might be due to this reason as well.”
As he finished speaking, he looked thoughtfully at Mo Xiuchen.
Feeling his gaze, Mo Xiuchen’s handsome brow lightly furrowed. He casually said, “Yuting is not a child, she knows what she’s doing. When I get the chance, I’d like to meet this Jiang Liu.”
“What is his relationship with Cheng Jia?”
Wen Ran turned her head to look at the materials in Mo Xiuchen’s hand.
“He used to be a good-for-nothing type, living off women. He should’ve been financially supported by Cheng Jia when they were together. After Cheng Jia went abroad, he even rented a luxury apartment. But after the New Year, he moved out of that apartment and now works in a small company.”
Gu Kai briefly introduced Jiang Liu’s information. He had looked through this file several times and memorized it. He had been considering whether he should tell Yuting about Jiang Liu’s past.
“After New Year? That would be after Yuting started seeing him, right?”
Mo Xiuchen’s deep eyes flashed with sharpness as he speculated, “This means that he probably has nothing to do with Cheng Jia now. Maybe it was Yuting who changed him. For a good-for-nothing guy who was living off of women to be willing to work as a salesperson in a small company requires considerable patience.”
