Chapter 990: 989 always tells the truth

Shen Yuting stood alone in the cold wind.

Even after the taxi had vanished from her sight, she finally raised her head to look at the sky, her lips tightly pursed into a line.

Three days ago, she and her mother had a phone call.

She had learned that her going abroad wasn’t Wen Ran’s idea. Wen Ran didn’t even know.

It was Gu Kai’s arrangement.

She wasn’t sure if it was because she was particularly lonely abroad, or because she had left G City, but the resentment in her heart gradually subsided somewhat. When she heard from her mother that it was Gu Kai’s idea, and it was all for her good, Shen Yuting couldn’t help herself and called Gu Kai.

Gu Kai told her that her father had been transferred to Kangning Hospital.

And told her not to worry.

That phone call lasted no more than three minutes, but the feeling it gave her was as warm as ever. When he heard her cough, Gu Kai asked if she had a cold and told her to take care of herself while alone abroad. He even arranged, through a friend in the city, another apartment for her to move into since the one she was staying in was quite remote.

Regarding Mo Xiuchen and Ranran, Gu Kai didn’t mention a word.

Shen Yuting took out her phone, dialed a number, and arranged for someone to help her move.

After ending the call, she hesitated for a long time before sending out two texts separately.

G City.

When Gu Kai’s phone chimed with a message alert, he was having dinner with Wen Jin.

He had left work early that evening, just as Wen Jin had called him to say he was at Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion and wanted him to come over.

“Ah Kai, did Mo Xiuchen give you a call?”

Wen Jin picked up his glass and elegantly took a sip of water, lazily leaning back into his chair.

Upon hearing his question, Gu Kai nodded. Since he was mid-bite, he swallowed his food before responding, “Mo Xiuchen did call, said that I should take the day off tomorrow, not just me but my dad too.”

“I’m relieved that he informed you too,” Wen Jin said teasingly.

“Do you know what it’s about?” Gu Kai asked curiously.

Wen Jin shook his head blankly, “If I knew, I wouldn’t have called you.”

He had received a call from Mo Xiuchen in the afternoon, telling him to clear his schedule for tomorrow and explicitly instructing him not to tell Ranran.

Wen Jin had no clue what Mo Xiuchen was up to, and he’d been all secretive about it, only mentioning that someone would come to pick him up at the company in the morning.

As if he couldn’t drive himself.

Gu Kai narrowed his eyes and smiled, “I heard from Ranran that Mo Xiuchen has been pretty secretive lately, often leaving her alone and going off by himself.”

“Going off by himself?”

Suspicion flickered in Wen Jin’s eyes.

Gu Kai raised an eyebrow, “Yeah, that’s what Ranran told me last time. I’ve been busy recently, so I don’t know what Mo Xiuchen has been up to, but I don’t have to guess to know it definitely involves Ranran.”

Wen Jin smiled and his lips curved, “You really do understand Mo Xiuchen. He’s probably planning some kind of surprise for Ranran. It seems he’s keeping it from everyone. Now I’m quite curious about his surprise. I wonder if he’s notified Ah Feng and Ah Mu.”

“That’s easy to find out. I’ll give them a call,” Gu Kai said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he put down his chopsticks and pulled out his phone to call Qin Mu.

Meanwhile, Wen Jin picked up his chopsticks, grabbed the seafood closest to him, and popped it into his mouth while watching Gu Kai make the call.

The phone rang several times before being answered, and Qin Mu’s voice traveled through the signal, “Hello, Ah Kai.”

“Ah Mu, are you at the airport?”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he heard what sounded like a broadcast in the background through the phone, though the sound was quite faint, and he couldn’t make out the details.

“Mhm, I just got to the airport, haven’t gone in yet. Mo Xiuchen called, told me to go to G City tomorrow. Said it’s something important, do you know what it could be?”

Qin Mu was currently at F City’s airport, which was bustling as the holidays approached.

He was practically becoming a frequent flyer.

Gu Kai burst into laughter, “I have no clue, Mo Xiuchen didn’t just inform you, he told me and Ah Jin too. Ah Feng will definitely be back as well. What time is your flight? I’ll pick you up when you arrive.”

“I’m in F City. I’ll arrive in G City at eleven.”

“Eleven o’clock… Alright, I’ll come get you.”

Gu Kai promised like a true friend, making the call just in time.

After finishing the call with Qin Mu, Gu Kai placed his phone on the table, “No need to call Ah Feng, he’s bound to show up. Ah Mu will be back tonight, arriving at the airport at eleven. Do you want to come with me to pick him up?”

Wen Jin smiled, “No problem.”

In the main bedroom on the second floor of a suburban villa.

The soft glow of a crystal lamp cascaded down, gently lighting the woman on the couch, clad in a robe and cradling a pillow.

Her skin was as fair as jade, glistening with a moist sheen under the lamplight, giving off a languid and refined air. From afar, she resembled a beautiful painting.

The LCD screen was playing the press conference from that day. She gazed almost entranced at the man on the screen – whether it was his handsome features, tender eyes, or even his deep, magnetic voice, all made her heart flutter.

“Ranran, why are you watching this again?”

The bathroom door opened as Mo Xiuchen, dressed in a robe identical to hers, walked over and sat down beside her. With a long reach, he scooped her into his arms.

“There’s nothing worth seeing. I only have eyes for you.”

Wen Ran replied teasingly, then squinted, studying him carefully.

Mo Xiuchen’s lips curled into an indulgent smile, his large hand stroking her silky hair, “What are you looking at?”

“Seeing whether you’re more handsome in person or on TV.”

“No need to check. I’m handsome either way,” Mo Xiuchen said casually, though his pride was evident. Wen Ran giggled at his remark, “Mo Xiuchen, when will you learn to be humble?”

Mo Xiuchen raised an eyebrow, “I always tell the truth.”

Wen Ran grabbed the remote control and switched to another channel. Mo Xiuchen laughed as he took the remote from her and turned off the TV, then firmly pulled her head close, claiming a forceful kiss.

“Mo Xiuchen, I still have things to…”

Wen Ran laughed, pushing him away, but Mo Xiuchen continued kissing her until she was breathless before letting go.

After having dinner with her that evening, Mo Xiuchen received a call and had to step out for a while.

Suppressing the heat inside him, he looked at her cheeks flushed from their recent kiss, smiling and said, “Finish what you were saying, then we can continue.”

Wen Ran glared at him playfully, calming her heart that he had so stirred.

After a moment, she began, “I told you last time that Fu Jingyi had Li En investigate Tongtong’s biological father, remember?”

Mo Xiuchen nodded gently, “Yeah, you mentioned it before. Has that man named Li En found out who Bai Yiyi’s daughter’s real father is?”

Wen Ran frowned in frustration, “He told me there are clues…”

She recounted her afternoon conversation with Li En and then asked Mo Xiuchen, “Mo Xiuchen, what do you think? Why would Li En say that?”
