Flash Marriage Passionate Love: Young Master Mo Is A Wife-pampering Addict - Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Being looked down upon by others

A dark shadow fell across Mo Xiuchen’s deep-set eyes, “He agreed. Before this, he would not admit to having any contact with Xiao Wenqing. These days, he must have gotten disappointed with Xiao Wenqing, and for the sake of fame and wealth, he chose to betray his mother.”

“Then I’ll make a call to Wen Jin. When Mo Zixuan and Xiao Wenqing are talking on the phone, let Lu Zhiyan track their location.”

Gu Kai said while taking out his phone.

“Hmm, you call him. Lu Zhiyan is a deputy chief of the police station and is still investigating the car accident that killed Ranran’s parents. It’s good to let him know.”

Gu Kai dialed Wen Jin’s number and Mo Xiuchen looked at Bai’s Villa one more time before starting the car and leaving.

In the villa, Mother Bai was giving Bai Xiaoxiao orders as Wen Ran walked upstairs. “Xiaoxiao, you are not allowed to associate with Luo Haofeng anymore, understand?”

“You’re speaking so loud. How can I not hear it?”

Bai Xiaoxiao replied lazily, her eyes were looking towards the door, hoping that her savior would soon arrive.

Wen Ran knocked on the door, and Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice came immediately. “Come in. Mom, it has to be Ranran. Open the door for her.”

Wen Ran didn’t wait for Mother Bai to open the door, she pushed it open herself. She immediately felt the oppressive atmosphere in the room and Mother Bai’s well-maintained face was livid.

“Aunt Qiao.”

Wen Ran had a smile on her face and called out softly.

Seeing the smiling Wen Ran, Mother Bai could not vent her anger on her. She forced a smile and said, “Ranran, you’re here!”

The smile faded from Wen Ran’s face, she said softly, “Aunt Qiao, I heard about what happened at noon. Please do not be angry at Xiaoxiao. I think, even if she wants to go on a blind date, she should wait until she’s fully recovered, back to her perfect self before going on it.”

Aunt Qiao frowned and defended herself, “If she’s to wait until her leg is fully healed, it would take at least three to five months. I just want to find a reliable man for her while she is still in this condition.”

Bai Xiaoxiao puckered up her lips.

Wen Ran walked to the bed, glanced at the pouting Bai Xiaoxiao, then turned to look at Mother Bai, “Aunt Qiao, your thinking isn’t wrong, but Xiaoxiao going on a blind date in this condition could be seen as a turn off. And we are not looking for a lifelong bodyguard or nurse for Xiaoxiao, we’re looking for a husband who can give her happiness.”

“Exactly, Ranran is right. That lawyer today changed his expression as soon as he saw me enter in a wheelchair. He was indifferent later and did not take me seriously. Dear mother, are you trying to find a husband for me or make me a laughing stock?”

With Wen Ran’s support, Bai Xiaoxiao immediately gained confidence.

Mother Bai considered this and saw some sense in what Wen Ran said. She looked at Bai Xiaoxiao and realized that her condition was indeed not as good as when she was healthy.

“Aunt Qiao, what if the man who wants to have a blind date with Xiaoxiao was in a wheelchair? Even if Xiaoxiao was willing, wouldn’t you and Uncle Bai be worried? That means, even if a man is willing to go on a blind date with Xiaoxiao, his parents might object. Once Xiaoxiao is married off, she would be at the mercy of her mother-in-law.”

“Ranran, what you said makes some sense. But what happened this afternoon was too much. Even if she didn’t want to go on a blind date, she shouldn’t have let Luo Haofeng create a scene. He made a promising young lawyer worthless. I used to think he was arrogant, but I didn’t expect him to be so bitter.”

“Aunt Qiao, are you saying that Luo Haofeng was there?”

Wen Ran feigned surprise while looking at Mother Bai. Bai Xiaoxiao hung her head and said in a low voice, “I did not invite him.”

“Aunt Qiao, this really isn’t Xiaoxiao’s fault. It was me who let it slip.”

Wen Ran subtly observed the changes in Mother Bai’s face and self-criticized, “At noon, I invited Xiaoxiao to lunch and asked Luo Haofeng to pick her up. Later, Xiaoxiao said she couldn’t go and had a blind date, so I called and told Luo Haofeng not to pick her up. I accidentally let it slip.”

“That Luo Haofeng has really gone too far.”

Mother Bai’s anger flared up as she remembered the incident.

“Aunt Bai, what did Luo Haofeng do?” Wen Ran pretended to be confused, blinking her eyes. Seeing the angry look on Mother Bai’s face, she guessed, “Did Luo Haofeng go in front of that lawyer and say that he was Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend or that he liked Xiaoxiao?”

“He didn’t say that, but he criticized the lawyer from head to toe and threatened them with a contract termination, making him pale with anger.”

“Pfff–”

Wen Ran imagined the scene at the time and burst out laughing.

Seeing Mother Bai’s unhappy face, she hurriedly held back her laughter. “Aunt Qiao, did Luo Haofeng know that lawyer?”

“Seems so.”

“Then you shouldn’t be angry. Since they know each other and he didn’t say he went for Xiaoxiao, even if he angered the lawyer, it has nothing to do with Xiaoxiao. Besides, didn’t that lawyer also disrespect you because of Xiaoxiao’s current situation?”

“Exactly, but my mother insists on framing me.”

Bai Xiaoxiao winked at Wen Ran, pretending to be aggrieved.

“Fine, fine. During this period, you should hurry up and get yourself back in shape. We can arrange a blind date for you after you fully recover. Ranran, you stay with Xiaoxiao, I’m going to take a nap.”

Mother Bai had a headache from anger. She rubbed her forehead and headed for the door.

“Aunt Bai, rest assured and have a good rest. I will stay here with Xiaoxiao.”

After Wen Ran finished speaking, she shared a smile with Bai Xiaoxiao. After the room door was closed and Mother Bai’s footsteps had faded away, she asked Bai Xiaoxiao, “What really happened?”

Bai Xiaoxiao shrugged innocently. “I really don’t know what happened. It was less than five minutes after we entered the private room, and Luo Haofeng showed up.”

Holding back her laughter, Wen Ran listened as she continued, “The moment I saw him appearing, I thought I was done for. But he scanned the entire private room and surprisingly didn’t greet me or my mother, instead he greeted that guy.”

MS Group

On the top floor, the CEO’s office was elegantly decorated while maintaining an air of luxury.

Mo Zixuan stared at the number on his cell phone with a furrowed brow, murmuring discontentedly, “Maybe the phone ran out of battery. I’ll try again later.”

In his office, besides him, were Mo Xiuchen, Gu Kai, and Lu Zhiyan.

“Have you contacted her before? Has this ever occurred?”

Lu Zhiyan gazed at Mo Zixuan, his sharp eyes filled with doubt. He thought that the situation with the phone being turned off was only one in a hundred. He felt it was more likely that Xiao Wenqing had gotten wind of the situation and stopped answering Mo Zixuan’s phone.

“Never. She just sometimes answers the phone late.”

Mo Zixuan glanced at Mo Xiuchen, who was still holding the agreement in his thin fingers.
