Chapter 382: 381 Because of love, therefore trust

A familiar masculine scent filled her nostrils, causing Wen Ran’s body to rigidly freeze at once!

The moistness that had welled up in her eyes, transformed uncontrollably into tears. She felt as if she were excessively prone to tears tonight.

Mo Xiuchen couldn’t see her face, but he could sense her tears. His heart clenched sharply, and his arms around her tightened a notch, his voice deep and husky as it seeped from his lips, “Ranran, don’t misunderstand.”

He had no idea when Ranran had arrived or what she had seen.

He didn’t want her to feel the least bit uncomfortable. Today was her birthday. He had just stepped outside for some fresh air with Luo Haofeng when he was overtaken by a whim to pick some flowers for her, leaving Luo Haofeng to return first.

While he was in the garden focused on choosing flowers, he didn’t pay attention to the footsteps approaching from behind. It was only when Shen Yuting walked up behind him that he realized it was her.

Tonight, Shen Yuting had drunk a lot. Her words were laced with the scent of liquor, which was unlike her usual demeanor. He was caught off guard, as he was holding flowers at the time, which allowed her to get close to him.

“Ranran, Shen Yuting was drunk. Nothing happened between us.”

Wen Ran remained silent, triggering unease for Mo Xiuchen as he witnessed the escalating mistrust. Upon finishing his explanation, he pulled her away from his chest, bending down to wipe her tears.

“Ranran, don’t cry!”

Whenever she cried, his heart ached.

Off in the distance, Shen Yuting sat collapsed on the ground, watching Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran tightly embracing each other next to the fake mountain. The sharp pain in her heart chased away some of the fuzziness from the alcohol, filling her heart with hefty despair…

“Yuting,…Mo Xiuchen just called and said that you’re drunk. Why…”

Gu Kai hurried over. Before he finished speaking, he noticed Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran close by. After glancing from the pitiful-looking Shen Yuting sitting on the ground to the two figures in the distance, it seemed as if he understood something.

“Cousin, I…”

Shen Yuting could sense the shift in Gu Kai’s attitude. A wave of fear and shame welled up within her as the effects of the alcohol started to wane. She couldn’t believe that she had actually thrown herself into Mo Xiuchen’s arms…

She even found herself to be shameless.

“Let’s head back to the room.”

Gu Kai’s voice was somewhat cold. He was genuinely angry.

He had warned her before not to have any further illusions about Mo Xiuchen. She also promised him that she wouldn’t do anything to harm Ranran. Yet, she knew very well what she had done just now.

He bent down to help her up. It was only then that Shen Yuting hissed in pain due to her hurting arm. Gu Kai picked up her clothes for her to wear slowly.

Mo Xiuchen heard Gu Kai speaking with Shen Yuting and knew he had taken her away. From start to finish, he never once looked back.

He wiped away Wen Ran’s tears before pulling her back into his arms.

Earlier, the moment he saw her standing by the artificial mountain, he had been genuinely scared.

Scared that she’d misunderstand, scared that she’d feel hurt.

“Ranran, if you don’t want to go back inside, we can just return home now.”

Mo Xiuchen took off his outerwear and draped it on Wen Ran. Despite her having a coat on, he still worried about her catching a chill.

“But Xiaoxiao and the others are still…”

“I’ll ask Ah Feng to send Bai Xiaoxiao home. You don’t need to deal with those people inside. Ah Kai is there. I can take you home now.”

After what just happened, Mo Xiuchen did not think that Wen Ran would still be in the mood for it. Given Shen Yuting’s presence at the Gu Family gathering, he also did not want Ranran to have to see her again.

“Alright, you should call Luo Haofeng then.”

Wen Ran turned her head to look behind and didn’t catch sight of Bai Xiaoxiao.

Mo Xiuchen called Luo Haofeng, who told him that he had already brought Bai Xiaoxiao inside. Earlier, when Luo Haofeng and Gu Kai stepped outside together, Gu Kai went to look for Shen Yuting, and he saw Bai Xiaoxiao.

Once they were inside the car, Mo Xiuchen didn’t promptly start it up. Instead, he turned sideways to help fasten Wen Ran’s seatbelt, his gaze tenderly fixed on her.

Seeing his gaze filled with gentleness and concern, Wen Ran pursed her lips and softly said, “Xiaoxiao and I had gone out for some fresh air earlier, intending to take her to the rear garden to see the flowers. When we reached the fake mountain, I suddenly saw you and Shen Yuting in an embrace.”

Mo Xiuchen’s lips moved but he didn’t provide any excuses.

A hint of pain glinted in Wen Ran’s eyes, “At that moment, I truly thought… It was quite shocking and upsetting.” She narrated slowly, as if reliving her feelings from a while ago. After hearing Mo Xiuchen’s explanation of why he had been at the rear earlier, she also did not wish to conceal anything from him.

Her thoughts.

“Xiaoxiao asked me to go over and question you. I wanted to wait a bit longer. Although I saw it with my own eyes, I didn’t believe you would do something like that. Later on, I saw you push Shen Yuting away.”

At this point, a faint smile bloomed in her bright eyes, now glistening from the moisture of her tears, rendering her gentle and amiable appearance even more heartrending.

Mo Xiuchen’s gaze tightened, his lips drawn in a thin line as he held her small hand in his palm, listening to her softly spoken words, “When Shen Yuting was about to take off her coat, I was a bit worried. After seeing you trying to stop her and her taking the opportunity to hug you again, I was a bit angry. Now, you still carry the scent of her perfume.”

Her tone was muffled and clearly tinged with jealousy, especially towards the end.

Mo Xiuchen smiled, pulling her into his embrace again, “Ranran, I’m sorry. I was careless which allowed Shen Yuting to take advantage of the situation and upset you. However, I am genuinely happy that you chose to believe in me.”

Wen Ran wrapped her arms around his waist, “From now on, I’ll always trust you.”

Her distrust earlier had already upset her. Since their marriage, Mo Xiuchen had been very clear about his feelings. He never had any undue intimacy with other women. Instead, he was respectful and stayed away from women who admired him.

Seeing is not always believing, a lesson she had learned tonight.

“Ranran, hearing you say that is enough. We are still young. Life, although short, is also a long journey. I can’t guarantee that other women won’t come to bother me in the future, but I can assure you that my feelings for you will always remain the same.”

He released her, his gaze full of deep affection as he looked at her and pronounced word by word, “Ranran, I love you. This was true in the past, it’s true now, and it will be true forever in the future. This will never change!” fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Wen Ran nodded heartily, “I believe!”

If she couldn’t even trust him, then who else could she rely on? He was the man she loved most. Even though they had only been together for a few months, her love for him had already seeped deep into her bones and infused into her blood.

In this lifetime, she wouldn’t love anyone else but him.

“These flowers are for you.”

Mo Xiuchen finally produced the bouquet he had personally picked and presented it to Wen Ran. The confined space in the car was instantly suffused with a floral fragrance.

Wen Ran laughed and cried at the same time, appearing so adorable and pitiable that it tugged at one’s heartstrings. She received the flowers with both hands, took a deep breath, her voice carrying an undertone of joy, “These are the flowers you picked for me. When we get home, I will put them in the most beautiful vase and place them in our bedroom.”

“Okay!”

Mo Xiuchen had no objections. As long as she was happy, he didn’t mind any arrangements.
