Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Xiao Wenqing bit her teeth in hate, but she didn’t dare to show her resentment too obviously.

MO Xiuchen glanced at her with cold eyes, then turned to the kitchen to order his mother’s favorite dishes.

“Ranran, don’t just stand there, come and sit.”

Zhou Lin saw MO Zixuan staring at Wen Ran, she inhaled, pushed down the jealousy in her heart, and walked up to her with a smile.

Midway through the conversation, she even tried to grab Wen Ran’s hand in a friendly manner. Unfortunately, Wen Ran subtly dodged her touch, leaving her hand hanging in mid -air. A flash of embarrassment went across her heavily dolled-up face, even her laughter started to sound unnatural.

“I’ll go and check on the kitchen.”

Wen Ran left these words behind and turned to the kitchen.

Sitting on the couch, MO Zixuan’s eyes followed Wen Ran intensely. Even in front of his father, MO Jingteng, he didn’t attempt to hide his feelings. The moment Wen Ran walked into the living room, he lost all his rationality.

A few minutes later, MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran came out of the kitchen. A servant was carrying a tray behind them. Cheng Jia walked over and eagerly said to MO Xiuchen, “Young Master MO, I would like to go to honor your mother with you.”

MO Xiuchen glanced briefly at the stiff-faced Xiao Wenqing, nodded slightly and murmured ‘okay’. Immediately, Cheng Jia’s eyes brightened up and she gratefully said, “Thank you, Young Master Mo.”

MO Xiuchen didn’t have a memorial tablet for his mother in the MO family house, and they had even turned the place where she committed suicide into a garden.

Today, the in-house memorial service for his mother was to upset Xiao Wenqing, but also to ‘invite’ his mother back home for a visit.

In the garden, a variety of flowers were in bloom. All the materials for the ceremony were placed in the grassy area before the garden. He began introducing to his invisible mother in the air, “Mom, even if you didn’t want to come back, today, I will burn fake money here for you. Could you please come back and get them? Also meet your daughter-in-law, her name is Wen Ran…”

Wen Ran silently watched MO Xiuchen, whose dark eyes were unreadable in the dim light. However, from his words, she felt his loneliness. She instinctively reached out and grabbed his hand.

Feeling the warmth on his hand, MO Xiuchen looked down at her.

Their eyes met. Her soft gaze seemed to light up like stars in the oblique light, reflecting his handsome face. For a moment, he was stunned.

Until the soft yet firm voice of Wen Ran reached his ears, hitting the softest place in his heart, “Mom, I’ll take good care of Xiuchen from now on.”

A breeze suddenly blew, carrying the fragrance of flowers. It was as though the woman who leaped to her death years ago was responding to Wen Ran’s words. MO Xiuchen turned his palm, gently wrapping her soft hand, and looked at her with sparkling eyes, ‘You made a promise, don’t go back on your words.”

Looking into his deep eyes, Wen Ran raised her other hand to smooth out the frown lines on his forehead, and flirtatiously said, “I keep my promises. As long as you are my husband, I will take responsibility for you.”

Infected by her light air, MO Xiuchen’s melancholic mood dissolved. A corner of his mouth lifted slightly, “I’ll trust you this time.”

Throughout the process, Cheng Jia was like an invisible person, completely ignored by MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran. Occasionally, when the wind blew, MO Xiuchen would glance at Cheng Jia. The scent of her perfume seemed odd.

She stood aside, watching MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran burn the paper offerings. Three bows were made respectfully after the paper was burnt. MO Xiuchen didn’t say a word to her until it was time to leave, “Let’s go! ”

“Young Master MO, you haven’t introduced me to Auntie.”

Cheng Tia looked at MO Xiuchen exDectantlv. thinking that he would introduce

her first. After all, she was his life savior, not someone like Wen Ran, who sold herself for money.

“Next time, when I get the chance, I’ll take you to the cemetery.”

MO Xiuchen glanced at the burnt paper money on the ground, paused for a couple of seconds, and replied in a light tone.

“Really? Can we go tonight then?”

In her heart, hope was reignited and she asked him while the iron was still hot.

“Hmm!”

MO Xiuchen glanced at Wen Ran, seeing that she wasn’t animated in any particular way, he casually acknowledged and held her hand as he walked past Cheng Jia, heading towards the living room.

Originally, Xiao Wenqing was worried that Zhou Lin wouldn’t be able to separate Wen Ran and MO Xiuchen.

Once they knew Wen Jin was awake, she wasn’t worried at all anymore.

While they sat at the dinner table, Zhou Lin proposed to visit Wen Ran’s brother at the hospital. This was gracefully declined by Wen Ran. “You should return early to tell Uncle Zhou that our marriage date is set. Let him help you with the wedding preparations. With a special nursing assistant caring for my brother 24/7, it would not make much of a difference if I visited him a bit later.”

“Will you visit the hospital tonight? I can go later. But you being his sister, it’s different. ”

Zhou Lin asked somewhat concerned. Perhaps she was too ‘caring’, Wen Ran frowned in confusion and replied indifferently, “Xiuchen will accompany me to the hospital.”

MO Zixuan, who was picking up a piece of food, suddenly dropped it onto the table. Wen Ran casually calling “Xiuchen” felt like a knife twisting in his heart, causing the hand holding his chopsticks to stiffen.

“Young Master MO, are we still going to the cemetery tonight?”

Cheng Jia picked up a sweet and sour pork rib and placed it in MO Xiuchen’s bowl, gently asking.

Seeing this, MO Zixuan picked up another piece of meat and placed it in Wen Ran’s bowl. The initially awkward atmosphere suddenly became subtly interesting.

MO Xiuchen watched as Wen Ran picked up the piece of meat from her bowl. He then briefly glanced at Xiao Wenqing, who was watching everything unfolding before her. He gently put down his chopsticks, took a sip of the soup in front of him, and said, “Since you’re going to the hospital, let the driver take you. I’ll go to the cemetery tonight.”

Wen Ran was taken aback. She looked at MO Xiuchen, not understanding why his mood changed so quickly. Could it be because of the piece of meat that MO Zixuan gave her?

She pursed her lips, and responded with a short ‘okay’, then picked up the piece of meat and gave it to Zhou Lin. MO Zixuan’s face turned slightly pale as he watched this.

“Young Master MO, here’s your favorite braised lion’s head.”

Upon seeing MO Xiuchen rejecting to drive Wen Ran to the hospital for her, Cheng Jia’s lips curled into a smile as she put MO Xiuchen’s favorite dish into his bowl.

“Thank you! ”

The words from MO Xiuchen were light, but they revealed his acceptance of Cheng Jia’s gesture.

Wen Ran put down her chopsticks and stood up, smiling at everyone, “I’m full.

I’ll go to see my brother at the hospital now, please enjoy your meal!”

MO Zixuan wanted to say something, his lips moved a bit, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

MO Xiuchen made a faint ‘hmm’, his emotionless voice echoed, “Let the driver take you to the hospital. After I return from the cemetery, I will come to pick you up..”
