Chapter 491: Love so much, so much

“Ranran!”

Seeing Wen Ran crying silently, Bai Xiaoxiao felt a tightening in her heart and immediately stopped speaking.

Wen Ran’s body slightly trembled, with tears sliding down her cheeks. The silent and suppressed tears, were more heartbreaking than any full-blown cry could be.

“Ranran, I won’t say anymore, don’t be sad, don’t cry your eyes out.”

Her eyes were already swollen to a frightening extent, and if she continued to cry, it would genuinely terrify Xiaoxiao.

A few months ago, when her parents passed away, Bai Xiaoxiao had seen Wen Ran this heartbroken. Now, seeing her in such distress again, her heart felt as if it was being cruelly squeezed, making breathing difficult.

Wen Ran raised her head, taking the tissue that Bai Xiaoxiao handed her. Wiping her tears, she sobbed, “Xiaoxiao, you didn’t say anything wrong. I love Mo Xiuchen, I love him very much.”

Bai Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and looked at her intently.

“Because I love him, I must divorce him.”

Because of love, so I choose to let go! She silently added in her mind.

She didn’t want to hurt the man she loved under the premise of love; she would rather hurt herself than him, not even the least bit.

Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t understand, her delicate eyebrows knitted together in confusion as she asked, “Ranran, Mo Xiuchen doesn’t care if you guys have a child or not. He’s with you, not for the sake of having children. All he wants is just you.”

To be honest, Bai Xiaoxiao even thought that there is probably no second man as deeply devoted and loyal as Mo Xiuchen in this world. When Luo Haofeng and her were on a call, Mo Xiuchen had a few words for her.

He wanted her to tell Ranran that he only wanted her. If she felt that she could not have children and chose to leave him, he would immediately go through with a vasectomy, so that they would be fair.

When she heard him say that over the phone, it scared her.

But even more so, she felt shocked!

How much must a man love a woman to come to this step. Regardless of whether it was a noble family like the Mo family or a regular family, it is considered very important to carry on the family lineage. Many men, not able to procreate, would keep mistresses, find lovers, or even divorce…

Mo Xiuchen not only didn’t consider divorce, but he also tried his best to protect Ranran from the start, fearing that she wouldn’t be able to bear the impact if she found out about her situation. He’d rather be the object of ridicule.

Now that Ranran knew the truth, in order to keep her, to prove his love, he even suggested a vasectomy.

In his heart, Wen Ran was his whole world. Without her, his life would be meaningless.

Such a man, such deep and profound love, is not something every woman is fortunate enough to have.

She pursed her lips tightly and asked softly, “Ranran, did Fu Jingyi tell you something else? Fu Jingyi is just a perverse man, you don’t have to heed his words, his purpose is to break you and Mo Xiuchen apart. If you divorce Mo Xiuchen, won’t that be fulfilling his wish?”

“Xiaoxiao, don’t try to persuade me anymore. I’m not a child who can be swayed by a few provoking words from Fu Jingyi. I know what I’m doing.”

Wen Ran didn’t feel like explaining, her voice was light and plain as if she was indifferent to everything.

This side of her gave Bai Xiaoxiao an illusion as if at any moment, just like her words, she could fade into thin air.

She blurted out, “What if Mo Xiuchen gets a vasectomy for you? He thinks you don’t want him because you can’t have children, so he’s willing to hurt himself to put your mind at ease.”

Wen Ran suddenly lifted her head, her eyes staring shocked at Bai Xiaoxiao.

Her words, to her ears, were like a bolt from the blue. For a moment, she just looked at her in surprise, her mind blank.

Seeing her like this, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t bear it, the space between her eyebrows creased deeply.It took a while before Wen Ran asked quietly, “Did he say that to you?”

Her voice, void of any emotion, caused an increased tension in Bai Xiaoxiao who nodded, “He asked me to accompany you, he said, you didn’t want to see him.”

Thinking back on Mo Xiuchen’s tone over the phone, Bai Xiaoxiao also felt the same sadness, she had never heard such a tone from that proud and arrogant man.

If he cared less about Wen Ran, he would never have said those words.

The colour drained from Wen Ran’s face, her hands under the quilt tightening and loosening. It was hard to tell where the pain was coming from, but all her insides ached.

How could he say such a thing?

He is a man, a perfect and excellent man. There are countless women who want to bear his child, why must he….?

She remembered the words he had once said, “Ranran, should we not have children?”

“Ranran, don’t be sad, I am just saying.”

“I don’t dislike children. I am afraid it’ll be a waste after trying hard. I can’t bear it if you have to drink herbal medicine with me every day. When I was young, I drank it for two whole years, till I threw up…”

When she initially heard these words, she just felt heartache for him.

But now, recalling it all, the taste was all over the place. He didn’t want children, not because he couldn’t have any, but because

It was because of her.

He was afraid that after all the effort, there would be no result, because he knew, no matter how much medicine she took, she wouldn’t get better.

When he said that he couldn’t bear her drinking herbal medicine with him, he was actually feeling sorry for her. He didn’t want her to spend all her time taking medicine. He had once vomited from drinking medicine when he was young, and now, he was drinking bowl after bowl of it for her.

The world in front of her became blurry once again without her noticing.

How lucky is she, Wen Ran, to meet a man who loves her so much. But does she deserve to let him hurt himself just to soothe her ‘inferiority complex’?

If the only issue was her inability to have children, if she truly could spend the rest of her life with him, she would accept it.

But, he knew that it wasn’t just that. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, so scared that she didn’t dare think any more. She lifted her hand to wipe away her tears viciously, grabbed the phone from the bedside, swiped open the unlock screen and was about to call Mo Xiuchen.

“Ranran, what are you going to do?”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s face changed and she anxiously asked.

Seeing the unease in Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes, Wen Ran felt a pang in her heart. The image of Mo Xiuchen crying in the hotel room for her appeared before her eyes. The hand that was holding the mobile trembled violently.

The phone slipped from her hand and fell onto the quilt.

She stayed there blankly, her eyes flashing with a struggle. It seemed like she was making some decision, but in reality, her mind was a complete mess and she didn’t have any strategies.

Her only thought was to stop Mo Xiuchen from hurting himself.

She pursed her lips, her trembling hand picked up the phone again, and she explained after a pause, “I want to give my brother a call.”

Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t stop her and just watched her dial Gu Kai’s number.
