Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 127 - 127 126 Mood has changed

“Ranran, are you worried that Cheng Jia will complain about you, saying that you provoked her and caused her to faint, or perhaps she’s pretending to have a headache after fainting earlier? Or do you think I would blame you for upsetting her to the point of fainting?”

Mo Xiuchen saw her stubbornly refusing to admit that she’s upset while biting her lip, her face expressing unhappiness. His heart seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand, causing a slight sting.

Having her thoughts revealed, Wen Ran merely pursed her lips and stayed silent.

Since he had recognized her concerns, she wanted to hear what he would say.

Mo Xiuchen’s response was beyond Wen Ran’s expectation. When she heard him saying that “Cheng Jia was not truly faint due to her provocation, but was pretending,” her eyes widened in surprise.

“Is that really the truth?”

Wen Ran looked at Mo Xiuchen. She had suspected that Cheng Jia might be pretending, but since she was a patient, she couldn’t be sure.

Mo Xiuchen nodded, softening his tone, “It’s Ah Kai who told me, saying that Cheng Jia was faking her faint.”

While saying this, his voice slightly paused. His gaze deepened while looking at Wen Ran. He earnestly said, “Even if you’ve upset her to the point of fainting, I wouldn’t blame you.”

Wen Ran looked at Mo Xiuchen in disbelief. Although he’d told her to protect their marriage and not yield to other women, Cheng Jia had ultimately saved him multiple times.

“No matter what Cheng Jia says to you, you should not take it to heart, understood?”

Mo Xiuchen thought for a moment, then added another sentence. He gently swept a stray lock from Wen Ran’s forehead, revealing her full, fair forehead.

Wen Ran tensed slightly, not knowing whether it was because of his action or because she remembered Cheng Jia’s words. Strangely, when she had married Mo Xiuchen for the sake of the company, Bai Xiaoxiao had reminded her over the phone.

She told her that Mo Xiuchen was Mo Zixuan’s half-brother…

At that time, she felt indifferent, no matter the reason Mo Xiuchen had married her, as long as it could help the Wen family overcome their difficulties.

Yet in just a short month, she had grown concerned.

She pressed her lips together and forced herself to suppress the emotions in her heart. She put on a radiant smile and retorted, “Not at all. Whatever she says goes in one ear and out the other. It’s all forgotten.”

When Mo Zixuan stood before Zhou Lin, she thought she was dreaming.

Staring at him dumbly, she forgot to invite him in.

After waiting for a long time, without any response from her, Mo Zixuan frowned with displeasure and said coldly, “Why haven’t you returned to G City for so long? What are you doing alone here?”
