Luo Haofeng’s handsome brows lifted slightly. Seeing Wen Ran approaching, he laughed and said, “I won’t be a third wheel to you guys anymore. I’ll go upstairs and see what Cheng Jia looks like.”

Finishing his words, he turned and walked towards the stairs.

MO Xiuchen’s towering figure stood in the hallway, his gaze warm and gentle as it landed on the woman approaching from the opposite side. Watching her draw nearer with each step, waves of warmth involuntarily rose in his heart.

“Did you get impatient waiting?”

A few steps before she reached him, MO Xiuchen strode forward, asking with a smile.

Wen Ran came to a stop in front of him, shaking her head and laughing, “No, my brother and I were chatting, and time flew by quickly.”

MO Xiuchen grinned, raising his hand to gently sweep aside a loose strand of hair from her forehead, revealing her fair skin. His slightly rough fingertips lingered on her skin, causing a small tremor in Wen Ran’s heart.

“How did you know Cheng Jia had a headache? You didn’t go see her in her sickroom, did you?

MO Xiuchen’s deep gaze fixed on Wen Ran. His low voice, carrying the warm scent of a man, sprayed across her cheeks. Even though what they had done every night was much more intimate, Wen Ran still felt a little embarrassed in public and flushed.

“I bumped into Gu Kai as I was leaving. We hadn’t spoken for more than a minute when he received a call saying Cheng Jia had a headache. So I went with him to check on her,”

Wen Ran explained casually.

MO Xiuchen’s hand, lingering on her cheek, was lowered. Naturally, he took hold of her tender and slender hand, saying, “When you called, Ah Mu had just brought the worker who had dropped the brick that day. I asked him some questions.”

Wen Ran’s eyes flashed a bit of surprise and then she asked with concern, “Did you get any results?”

She Imew that MO Xiuchen suspected that it was not a simple accident, because Xiao Wenqing had called her after the construction site accident.

MO Xiuchen’s brows slightly knitted at her concerned gaze, but quickly relaxed again. His lips lightly curved as he explained, “Not only did we get results, but they were unexpected.”

“What is it?”

Wen Ran’s curiosity was aroused, her eyes hard on MO Xiuchen.

MO Xiuchen, holding her hand, turned to walk back towards the stairs, his tone calm as he said, “The worker confessed that the person who called him was a young woman named Wen.”

After saying that, he glanced at Wen Ran, a faint smile treasuring his lips.

Wen Ran was taken aback, pointing at her nose she blurted out, “What does he mean by that? Surely he doesn’t mean to say that the person who instructed him to hit you with a brick was me?”

There weren’t many people with the surname Wen in G City, particularly young women.

Seeing her agitated, MO Xiuchen gripped her hand a bit tighter, laughing and saying, “Even if I don’t believe it, Ah Feng and Ah Mu won’t believe that it was you either. Ranran, don’t be angry. It’s possible that someone deliberately misled the worker, so that you would be made a scapegoat when things come to light.”

“You don’t suspect me at all?”

Wen Ran blinked at MO Xiuchen, feeling a touch moved.

MO Xiuchen replied with an amused smile, “I’m not stupid. I know better than anyone how you feel about me. Even if you don’t love me, you still don’t dislike me enough to want to stone me to death.”

Hearing his words, Wen Ran also found herself laughing.

She scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed, and said, “I suppose I’m just too silly. I was worried that you wouldn’t believe me after you heard from the worker. You mentioned that the other party spoke to him on the phone, so if he heard their voice, could he recognize it?”

MO Xiuchen’s brows furrowed slightly as he said thoughtfully, “Maybe not, we don’t have any suspects now. We’ll wait until we have more clues.”

Wen Ran pursed her lips, “We don’t have a choice. Now that we’re certain it was a deliberate act and not an accident, you must be more careful, especially when you go to the construction site.”

Thankfully, it was Cheng Jia who had pushed him away the other day; otherwise, the person who might have been hit could well have been MO Xiuchen. As she thought of this, her heart tightened involuntarily.

“I know, don’t worry. I will get to the bottom of it,” MO Xiuchen promised. By the end of that sentence, his voice was laced with determination, his deep gaze resolute.

He wouldn’t let any harm come to him, nor would he allow the woman he loved to be hurt.

The two of them made their way upstairs, MO Xiuchen leading Wen Ran by the hand to the door of Cheng Jia’s sickroom. They heard Luo Haofeng’s voice emanating from within.

‘…Mo Xiuchen is a good man. But now, apart from company matters, he spends all his time with his wife and neglects you—his lifesaver. In this case, I’ll be in G City for a few days. I’ll come and visit you whenever I’m free. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask.”

Compared to Little Liu’s naivety, Qin Mu’s frosty demeanor, Luo Haofeng could be described as humorous and charming. His ability to woo women was top-notch, combined with his bewitchingly handsome face – few women could resist his allure.

In the bed, Cheng Jia’s already pale face turned even paler due to Luo Haofeng’s words. Her hand beneath the blanket tightened its grip unnoticed. She pursed her lips and weakly said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Luo, but I don’t need company.”

Luo Haofeng laughed heartily, glanced at Gu Kai, and shifting the topic said, “However, I have some good news for you. Xiuchen and Wen Ran may not last.”

Cheng Jia’s eyes shifted slightly. As she asked angrily, “What do you mean, Mr.

Luo? It almost sounds as if you expect me to wish for Young Master MO and Wen Ran’s divorce. I have no such desire.”

Gu Kai’s gaze shifted slightly, his arms crossed as he stared at Luo Haofeng, unsure of his intentions.

Luo Haofeng’s eyebrows rose slightly, taking issue with Cheng Jia’s concealing herself. It felt as if he was encouraging her to act on her feelings. “There’s no need to be shy. It’s not shameful to like Xiuchen. However, he is a married man now. You can only like him and keep it to yourself. Otherwise, you’ll become the homewrecker, despised by everyone.”

Cheng Jia’s face turned another shade whiter. Though annoyed by Luo Haofeng’s words, she didn’t dare to get angry. freewebnove l.com

He didn’t seem interested in stopping, continuing to say, “But if Xiuchen and Wen Ran divorced, that would be another situation. He’d be single again and then you could step in. Anyway, didn’t you save Xiuchen by pushing him out of the way of a falling brick a few days ago? Actually, that wasn’t an accident but a conspiracy.”

“What conspiracy?

Gu Kai intercepted the conversation, his sharp gaze sliding over to Cheng Jia.

Surprise flashed across Cheng Jia’s face, and she blurted, “Yes, what conspiracy?”

Luo Haofeng cleared his throat, slowly explaining, “Xiuchen interrogated the worker and eventually, he confessed that the one who told him to hit Xiuchen with the brick was a young woman with the surname Wen!”

Cheng Jia’s eyes widened in shock, she immediately said, “The surname Wen? Is it Wen Ran? Why would she want to harm Young Master MO? Even if she loves MO Zixuan and married Young Master MO only for the company’s benefits, there was no need for her to be so vicious that she’d want to see him dead. It’s a shame considering how good he is to her.” Towards the end, Cheng Jia showed her anger..
