Chapter 332: Why did you disturb my wife?

Translator: 549690339

There was a traffic jam on the way.

By the time Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran returned to the company, it was already dark. The city, which was in shadow, was set aglow by the streetlights.

Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu were still waiting for them in their office.

Gu Kai, who didn’t work overtime, also follwed them upstairs to join in the excitement.

Mo Xiuchen opened the door to the office, hand in hand with Wen Ran, and as they entered, Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu immediately stood up from the couch.

“Ah Feng, Ah Mu!”

He greeted them first. Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng both gave a tight smile, and the five of them then took their seats.

“Xiuchen, how did things go over there?”

Luo Haofeng looked at Mo Xiuchen with a smile in his eyes, asking out of concern.

“Yes, everything went smoothly. How’s the company doing?”

“First, listen to this.”

Qin Mu took a voice recorder out of his pocket. It had been given to him by Wen Ran, but he himself hadn’t listened to it yet. He was waiting for Mo Xiuchen to return so they could listen to it together.

Seeing the recorder in Qin’s hand, Mo Xiuchen’s eyes suddenly narrowed, “Ranran, is this the recorder that Yang Xinfa gave you?”

“Yes, it is. When the chairman asked me for the recorder, I asked Qin Mu to keep it for me. We haven’t listened to it yet either, we’re waiting for you to come back so we can listen to it together.”

The reason why she hadn’t listened was not because of a complete lack of curiosity, but because she didn’t want Yang Xinfa to have his way and didn’t want to be threatened by him.

Deep in her subconscious, Wen Ran truly believed that even if MS Group had had some issues in the past, and regardless of what Mo Jingteng had done, Mo Xiuchen was absolutely clean.

She trusted his character. He was the kind of man who appeared cold and ruthless but was, in fact, very principled.

Mo Xiuchen relaxed his face, smiled at Wen Ran faintly, as if silently assuring her: I’ve got this!

Just as he was reaching for the voice recorder, his cell phone, which was in his pocket, started ringing frantically. The pulsing vibration sounded extremely clear in the silent office.

Mo Xiuchen withdrew his hand and took out his cell phone. Wen Ran tilted her head slightly.

When her gaze caught the caller ID on the screen, her brows furrowed, and she said subconsciously, “It’s Yang Xinfa’s number.”

Although it was just a string of numbers without a name attached, Wen Ran had received a call from him in the morning and was thus quite sensitive to the number.

Upon hearing her, his handsome brows furrowed, casting a sharp look. His lips, lightly pursed, showed a hint of coldness. As he pressed the answer call button, his voice was cool and reserved as he answered, “Hello!”

“Mr. Mo, this is Yang Xinfa, I heard that you’ve returned…”

The voice on the phone was indeed Yang Xinfa’s.

His information was quite reliable. Mo Xiuchen had just returned to the company, and Yang’s call came right after. This showed just how much he cared about the crane accident.

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes gleamed with mockery, his voice carrying a hint of winter’s coldness, “Is there something so pressing that Deputy Director Yang couldn’t wait for me to return to handle, and had to disturb my wife beforehand?”

When he said this, not only was Yang Xinfa on the other end of the phone furious and unbelieving, but even Luo Haofeng and the others in the office showed their surprise.

They knew very well that Mo Xiuchen was extremely protective when it came to anything related to Wen Ran. Even they, his close friends, had felt the brunt of this overprotectiveness.

As for those who had hurt Wen Ran, Mo Xiuchen was even more ruthless – his methods had driven Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi to hide.

But now with the escalating situation of the Commercial Trade Building project accident, as a rational businessman, he should be on the same side as Yang Xinfa, working together to suppress the incident.

But what did he do?

He actually asked a deputy director why he had disturbed his wife!

Qin Mu narrowed his eyes, some emotion flashing past at the bottom of his gaze, but it quickly returned to its usual calm.

Gu Kai, on the other hand, leaned back into the couch, a satisfied smile twitching at his lips.

Next to him, Wen Ran stared intently at Mo Xiuchen, an indescribable emotion surging in her heart at his words.

She had thought that even if Mo Xiuchen wasn’t friendly to Yang Xinfa, he wouldn’t confront him directly.

His words, however, were a sign of his feelings for her.

Nothing, and no one, was more important to him than she was.

She tightened her lips slightly, and placed her other hand over his, which was holding her small hand.

Mo Xiuchen’s repressed facial features softened in an instant when her little hand covered his, replacing the coldness in his eyes with warmth. The way he looked at her was gentle and indulgent.

Yang Xinfa was dumbstruck by his direct question and was silent for a long time without being able to utter a word.

Mo Xiuchen, however, didn’t have the intention to listen to his explanation, or his angry threats. He coldly dropped a sentence, “I’m quite busy right now. I’ll contact Deputy Director Yang later.”

With those words, he promptly hung up the call.

“Xiuchen, is this really a good idea?”

Luo Haofeng glanced at the voice recorder held by Qin Mu, which was still in his outstretched hand, the small device lying quietly in his open palm.

It was acceptable for Wen Ran to play mind games with Yang Xinfa since she was a woman, and even if she didn’t accept his proposal, it didn’t matter.

However, Mo Xiuchen was the president of the company. Falling out with Yang Xinfa would do no good for MS Group.

Qin Mu gave a cold laugh, saying dismissively, “Such self-centered people like Yang Xinfa should be treated as such. He doesn’t have a good reputation. If he does anything excessive, we might as well throw him away, to prevent further personal vendettas in the future.”

A hint of laughter surfaced in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes. “Ah Feng, my thoughts coincide with Ah Mu’s.”

Luo Haofeng frowned, first looking at Qin Mu and then at Mo Xiuchen. He wanted to speak up, but the latter was apathetically resting with his eyes closed. He sighed dramatically, “Fine, since none of you is afraid of escalating the situation, there’s no need to be polite to him.”

“But, we should still listen to what Yang Xinfa gave to Ranran.”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyebrows knitted with displeasure as he looked at Qin Mu.

When the voices of Mo Jingteng and Yang Xinfa echoed in the office, Gu Kai slowly opened his eyes which he had closed earlier.

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes gradually darkened, and by the end, his fine facial features were covered with a thin layer of ice.

Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng’s expressions also underwent several changes, from astonishment to serious, and finally to calm!

Wen Ran had guessed that Mo Jingteng’s leverage had fallen into Yang Xinfa’s hands.

But she had never expected it to be this way. She frowned slightly, her eyes soft as she looked at Mo Xiuchen.

She didn’t know if Mo Xiuchen would still stick to his initial decision.

After listening to the conversation between Mo Jingteng and Yang Xinfa, they listened to the recording that Wen Ran had made in the morning.

Mo Xiuchen’s deep and brooding gaze, after listening to that recording, seemed to have lost its bottom, as if it was a deep old pool where all the storms were deeply buried at the bottom…

For a while, the office fell silent.

The stillness spread, consuming the large space, bit by bit.
