Chapter 487: 486 Love is harm.

“Stop it, just leave!”

Wen Ran’s tears, held back with all her might, eventually fell upon hearing his gentle words. She choked out a single phrase, then turned and walked away.

“…”

Mo Xiuchen’s gaze abruptly tightened, his tall figure frozen in place.

Wen Jin also felt a twinge in his heart. He glanced at Mo Xiuchen, then quickly ran after Wen Ran, pulling her along towards his car.

Behind them, Mo Xiuchen simply stood there, his deep eyes fixed on Wen Ran’s departing figure. He gave an impression of cold loneliness, as if the sunshine falling on him had suddenly lost its warmth.

A few meters away, Gu Kai and the others stood by the luxurious Aston, worrying glances directed at Mo Xiuchen. It wasn’t until Wen Ran got into Wen Jin’s car that Gu Kai turned around, returning to the front of the car.

“Ah Kai, you should take Ranran home.”

After giving Gu Kai his instructions, he turned to Luo Haofeng standing by the driver’s seat and said, “Ah Feng, can you drive me? Let’s go back to the company.”

“Alright!”

Luo Haofeng nodded. Given Mo Xiuchen’s current state, it was not suitable for him to drive.

Wen Jin waited for Wen Ran to fasten her seatbelt before starting the car and slowly setting off.

“Ranran, if your eyes hurt, get some rest. I’ll wake you up when we get home.” After driving away, Wen Jin glanced at Wen Ran and gently offered his advice.

Her eyes were swollen like walnuts, and each sight of her pained him. It was obvious that she was deeply in love with Mo Xiuchen, yet had to push him away. He understood that her heartbreak was by no means less than Mo Xiuchen’s.

“Okay!”

Wen Ran agreed, but not because she really wanted to rest. She wanted to clear up the storm of emotions in her heart. As she closed her eyes, Fu Jingyi’s words echoed in her ears, “Girl, when you were little, I always told you that whoever you fall in love with, you will hurt. Have you forgotten all these?”

Her body shuddered violently. At her side, Wen Jin’s gaze tightened slightly as he called out in concern, “Ranran!”

Wen Ran pursed her lips tightly, unwilling to open her eyes. She tersely said, “Brother, I’m going to sleep for a while.”

She didn’t dare to open her eyes, fearing that Wen Jin would see the fear in them. She deliberately tilted her body to the side after speaking, causing Wen Jin to slow down the car and remain silent out of concern.

The impact of Fu Jingyi’s words was too great for Wen Ran. At first, she didn’t fully believe him. When she left the company and took a taxi, her mind was in a whirlpool of confusion. At the time, she wasn’t considering divorce from Mo Xiuchen.

Her only thought was to verify the truth of Fu Jingyi’s words. She randomly gave the cab driver an address. She remembered that there was a newsstand there, but there weren’t any newspapers from the previous month. She decided to buy the month’s worth of newspapers from a nearby recycling station. frёeωebɳovel.com

When she got the newspapers and flipped through them, finding the contents to be exactly what Fu Jingyi had mentioned, she felt as if she’d been hit by a bolt of lightning. Her mind went blank.

It turned out that she had been the sick one all along, not Mo Xiuchen. There was a sliver of happiness in her heart knowing that the man she loved was healthy. When he was diagnosed as ill and asked her whether they could not have children, she truly wished that she could take his place.

But the thought of him painstakingly pretending to be ill, taking medicine with her for months, made her heart ache so much that she could barely breathe. When she thought back to Fu Jingyi’s words, that being with Mo Xiuchen would result in his death, her heart instantly plummeted into a bottomless abyss.

Her entire being felt as if it was in a cold storage, her heart turning to solid ice.

She kept lying to herself, saying that this wasn’t true, couldn’t be true.

Regardless of how she tried to deceive herself, the harsh reality remained unchanged. She sobbed as she flipping through the papers, from the first day when the news reported that she couldn’t conceive to the second day when all the media outlets issued clarifications stating that the previous day’s scandal was based on rumors.

The man who loved her had revealed his scars to protect her, subjecting himself to the public’s ridicule once again by admitting that the problem was with him, not her!

A painful feeling suffused her up to the point of suffocation as she recalled this.

Since the clarification on the second day, everyone was envious and touched by their love story. Later on, Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi came into the public’s purview. In the subsequent days, the media stopped writing about her illness and simply stopped paying attention to her. Gradually, she seemed to fade out of the media’s view.

However, this didn’t mean that the truth could be concealed forever. As the saying goes, you can’t wrap fire in paper; the truth would eventually be revealed.

Unless she never returned to G City and traveled the world with Mo Xiuchen, always enjoying their blissful world of two. As she held back her tears, a bitter smile came and went at the corners of her mouth. Xiuchen must have thought that she would leave him if she knew the truth.

That’s why he didn’t let her know.

Xiuchen, I’m sorry! It’s not that I’m not strong enough, or calm enough, or that I don’t love you enough. She silently said in her heart.

She was aware that asking Mo Xiuchen for a divorce would be a fatal blow, to the point of undermining his faith and possibly plunging him back into his previous cold world. But she couldn’t continue to be with him, she couldn’t harm him…

“Ranran, we’re home.”

The car slowly eased into the garage, and only after parking did Wen Jin turn his gaze towards Wen Ran. Throughout the journey, she’d kept her eyes closed pretending to sleep, but he knew she was awake.

Even with her eyes closed, her expression was steeped in melancholy.

Seeing this, his heart ached indescribably. But besides accompanying her in sadness, there was nothing else he could do.

“Oh.”

After a moment, Wen Ran slowly opened her eyes. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly as her eyes, still teary, met Wen Jin’s concerned gaze. At that, her nose turned sour again, and she subconsciously clenched her fist, attempting to suppress the surge of emotions within her. Although she tried to give him a smile, she couldn’t manage it.

“Ranran, you don’t have to pretend to be happy in front of me.”

Seeing her act stoic, Wen Jin’s heart clenched. His voice was soft as he leaned over to undo her seatbelt.

Wen Ran bit her lip lightly, her eyelids drooping.

Wen Jin gazed at Wen Ran’s sad and pale face, feeling a deep ache in his heart. He gently brushed a lock of hair from her face and softly said, “Ranran, let’s get out of the car.”

With that, he opened the door and stepped out, walking around to the other side to open her door.

Usually, Wen Ran wouldn’t sit in the car waiting for Wen Jin to open the door for her. But at this moment, she was in a state of shock, enveloped in immense sadness, her reactions considerably slower than usual.

It wasn’t until Wen Jin’s clear voice sounded outside that she raised her head in a daze.
