Flash Marriage Passionate Love: Young Master Mo Is A Wife-pampering Addict - Chapter 577

Chapter 577: Is 576 interested in him?

Office

Bai Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng did not speak a word.

For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Even though Luo Haofeng was fond of Bai Xiaoxiao, he himself had never been rejected by a woman before.

Last time, the way Bai Xiaoxiao spoke and behaved in front of Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran had hurt his strong sense of pride. After that, he stopped being as nice to her as he used to be.

Seeing Luo Haofeng’s cold expression as he stared at her with his peach blossom eyes, Bai Xiaoxiao moistened her lips uncomfortably and stood up. She said, “I wish you smooth travels. I have something to take care of, I will come to see Doctor Gu later.”

Seeing her about to leave, a trace of displeasure flickered in Luo Haofeng’s eyes, yet he didn’t stop her. He asked in a faint voice, “Has your leg not fully recovered yet?”

Just as Bai Xiaoxiao was about to exit, she heard his words, looked down at her leg and answered calmly: “It’s almost completely recovered.”

“Then, what do you need Ah Kai for? If you don’t want to be running around anymore, I can pass on the message for you.” Luo Haofeng’s long eyes narrowed slightly as he watched her with a hint of curiosity.

It seemed like he was trying to see into her heart, wondering whether she was seeking Ah Kai for her leg, or because she had feelings for Gu Kai.

Bai Xiaoxiao blinked in confusion, then shook her head: “No need, I will come to see Doctor Gu later.”

In fact, she didn’t have anything important to deal with. Earlier, she just didn’t want to go out for a walk with Xiao Yuting, so she made up an excuse to see Gu Kai.

However, her words resonated differently in Luo Haofeng’s ears.

A mockingly sarcastic smile appeared on his lips. He laughed lightly and said lazily: “If I remember correctly, your mother likes Gu Kai. Since you’re not willing to say what you needed Gu Kai for, can I interpret that as you are interested in Gu Kai?”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened in shock.

A hint of surprise followed swiftly by indignation shone in her eyes.

Luo Haofeng leaned back into the sofa, his expression lazy as he held her angry gaze.

Suddenly, Bai Xiaoxiao laughed, a seductive smile playing on her lips: “You guessed it right!”

As soon as the words fell, she turned around and left without looking back at the abrupt change in Luo Haofeng’s face or the anger in his thin lips. Looking at her departing figure, he was filled with utter frustration.

Upon opening the door, Qin Mu had just finished a call. Seeing her leave, he blinked in surprise, “Why are you leaving so soon?”

Bai Xiaoxiao smile at him and politely replied: “I have some business to attend to.”

Qin Mu nodded, took two steps forward, pushed the door open to see Luo Haofeng, gloomy-faced, sitting on the couch lighting a cigarette, blowing smoke rings. Curious, he asked, “What did you do to piss her off?”

Without raising his head, Luo Haofeng responded tersely: “Why do you say I pissed her off? She came looking for Ah Kai. Since Ah Kai isn’t here, she naturally left. I don’t know what sketchy thing she is up to.”

Qin Mu twitched his mouth corner, “If you like Bai Xiaoxiao, just pursue her. Why bring Ah Kai into this? You know Ah Kai has absolutely no feelings for Bai Xiaoxiao.”

“Did I say I liked her?”

Luo Haofeng looked up, glaring at Qin Mu in displeasure.

Qin Mu snorted in mockery, “You may not have said it, but it’s written all over your face.”

Luo Haofeng’s face changed a few times, then he stared sharply at Qin Mu for a long while before saying in a low, ominous tone, “Ah Mu, you don’t even know what liking someone means, how can you see that I like Bai Xiaoxiao in my face?”

Qin Mu didn’t answer, but picked up a cigarette from the coffee table, lit it, took a slow drag before blowing out a puff of smoke. As the smoke drifted around him, a layer of mist seemed to form over his black eyes, making it difficult to see clearly.

So, Ah Feng said he didn’t even know what liking someone meant?

Inwardly, he couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. It seemed he had successfully concealed his feelings.

He wished he really didn’t know what it means to like someone. What is liking someone? It’s losing control of your own heart, knowing you shouldn’t have feelings for them, yet finding yourself falling for them anyway.

If it were any other woman, he would definitely pursue her. Even if they couldn’t end up together, he would at least have tried. But the person he liked was his best friend’s beloved woman. Besides feeling guilty towards Mo Xiuchen, he didn’t even feel he had the right to have such feelings.

He was grateful that Mo Xiuchen hadn’t revealed his secret to anyone, including his two best friends, Luo Haofeng and Gu Kai, who weren’t aware that he had been silently in love with her all this time.

Previously, when Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran rushed to Bali Island overnight, Mo was certain that Qin Mu would rush back to G City as soon as he got the news, because besides their friendship, Qin Mu cared for Wen Ran, so he was sure that he would indeed come back.

“Ah Mu, Ah Mu, what are you thinking about?”

Luo Haofeng’s voice interrupted his thoughts. Qin Mu looked up to see his handsome face close to his own, a pair of probing eyes staring at him. He gave him a cold glance, holding back his inner thoughts.

“Ah Mu, this reminded me of something. Last time, we all thought you liked Shen Yuting, but we were mistaken. Now, do you really have someone that you like?”

Luo Haofeng squinted, watching Qin Mu sharply. His demeanor just now suggested that he was troubled by unrequited love.

Could it be, he really does have someone he likes?

“No!”

He shot a glance at Luo Haofeng, his tone cold.

Luo Haofeng was puzzled, “Really? You seemed troubled just now. However, this time when you go home, will you be forced into blind dates again?”

The sharpness faded from his eyes, replaced by a twinkle of curiosity.

“Perhaps.”

Qin Mu was not interested in discussing the subject further.

In the past, he used all means to avoid blind dates. Now, he was indifferent. In fact, he even hoped that through these blind dates, he could put an end to the feelings he shouldn’t be harboring.

“Boring.”

Luo Haofeng leaned back into the sofa, aimlessly propping his legs up, “Blind dates aren’t necessarily a bad thing. I plan to meet all the beauties my mother has set up for me when I get home. I’ll date a few high-quality ones, then pick the most suitable one to marry.”

“Do you think you’re shopping?”

Qin Mu frowned at him, but Luo Haofeng seemed more and more into his idea. His peach blossom eyes sparkled with amusement, “If you don’t try, you will never know the outcome. Like Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran, they also had no feelings for each other when they got married. Mo Xiuchen staked his lifetime on a hunch. What’s wrong with me wanting to date?”

His argument did make some sense.

Qin Mu sighed slightly. While he was recalling Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran, he couldn’t help but worry for them. He murmured to himself, “I wonder if they will find a treatment for Wen Ran in D Country this time.”
