Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 311: 310 I am the one who gives him courage

After the final traffic light, from afar, he saw a familiar license plate. His peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and he drove the car over.

He got out of the car and knocked on the car window.

After a while, the car window rolled down, and Qin Mu’s cold and stern features appeared before him.

“Ah Mu, why are you here? Didn’t you just say you weren’t coming?”

Luo Haofeng’s peach blossom eyes scrutinized Qin Mu with an inquisitive expression.

Just before getting off work at noon, he asked Qin Mu to accompany him to the hospital to see Bai Xiaoxiao for moral support, but he was refused. Qin Mu even told him to take responsibility for his actions alone.

But now, Qin Mu was standing at the hospital entrance. What was going on?

Qin Mu’s gaze met Luo Haofeng’s questioning look. Stepping out of the car, he said calmly, “Let’s go. I’m here to bolster your courage, right?”

After saying this, he didn’t wait for Luo Haofeng and walked towards the hospital entrance on his own.

Luo Haofeng stared in surprise for a moment. Seeing that Qin Mu had already walked several steps away, he quickly returned to his car, opened the door, picked up the fruits and followed.

“Ah Mu, wait for me.”

After entering the hospital entrance, Luo Haofeng caught up with Qin Mu.

The two of them took the elevator up together. Stepping out of the elevator, Luo Haofeng, carrying the fruits, walked shoulder-to-shoulder with Qin Mu towards Bai Xiaoxiao’s ward. He said with a laugh, “Ah Mu, you’re a real friend. That guy, Mo Xiuchen, not only didn’t accompany me but also went off with Wen Ran. If you weren’t here, I’d have to face Bai Xiaoxiao alone.”

Qin Mu’s lips twitched into a smirk, but he did not break into a laugh.

“Ah Mu, how long have you been here? Did you just eat before coming?”

Seeing that Qin Mu remained silent, Luo Haofeng, not giving up, continued to make conversation.

“You eat so quickly?”

Qin Mu shot Luo Haofeng a look, his tone extremely indifferent.

Luo Haofeng was stumped by Qin Mu’s words, but he soon laughed again, “That’s right, if you had come after eating, you would definitely have been behind me. You came with Mo Xiuchen, didn’t you? Have he and Wen Ran left already?”

“They’ve left.”

As they spoke, they reached Bai Xiaoxiao’s ward. Qin Mu deliberately stepped to the side, letting Luo Haofeng open the door on his own.

Luo Haofeng pushed open the door, and inside the ward, Bai Xiaoxiao was alone, leaning against the bed.

He smiled captivatingly at her, speaking warmly and passionately, “Xiaoxiao, I brought you some fruits. They’re organic, so you can eat them without worry.”

Before leaving, Wen Ran had told Bai Xiaoxiao that Luo Haofeng would come to see her later and apologize to her.

Bai Xiaoxiao remained silent, watching Luo Haofeng with a bland expression. He seemed unaffected by her silence, walking straight to the bed and placing the fruits on the bedside table, laughing, “Ah Mu cares about you, too…”

“I’m just here to give him moral support.”

Luo Haofeng’s words were cut off by Qin Mu, whose voice was neither high nor low, and it was even hard to discern any emotion in it.

At his words, Luo Haofeng’s smile faltered. Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Mu’s stern face, then at Luo Haofeng’s frozen smile, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Luckily, Luo Haofeng’s skin was thick, he didn’t blush when Qin Mu laid his thoughts bare.

He coughed twice, glared at Qin Mu for overdoing it, then pulled over a chair and sat down. His gaze soft on Bai Xiaoxiao, he asked with concern, “Xiaoxiao, have you eaten lunch yet?”

“Are we that close?”

Bai Xiaoxiao countered his question with her own.

He had always addressed her as Bai Xiaoxiao before. But today, he called her Xiaoxiao over and over again, which was overly affectionate and made her uncomfortable.

But Luo Haofeng, whose skin was thicker than a city wall, flashed his signature smile, “Of course we are, we’ve known each other for so long. We’ve watched plays together, ridden horses together, and once you recover and are discharged, I, this handsome and dashing man, will be your groom, at your beck and call.”

Bai Xiaoxiao did not want to pay attention to him, but his natural remarks, especially promising to become her groom after her discharge, left her at a loss.

No matter what he was thinking, on the surface, he had given her ample face.

She wasn’t a domineering woman, and their previous disagreements had resulted from both of their actions.

She pursed her lips and said somewhat stiffly, “This is your choice. Next time I ask you to serve as my groom, you must not make excuse.”

Luo Haofeng’s smile was exceptionally bright, “Of course, I, Luo Haofeng, always keep my word. I will be at your service whenever you, Miss Bai, wish.”

His words had just fallen when a knock suddenly sounded from outside the ward.

Qin Mu went to open the door.

Luo Haofeng turned his head and looked up. When his gaze reached the man standing outside the door, his brows furrowed and a touch of mockery surfaced in his peach blossom eyes.

“Xiaoxiao, you have a guest.”

The man who entered was Xiao Yuting. He carried a bouquet of fresh flowers in his arms, instantly filling the room with fragrance.

“Xiao Yuting, what are you doing?”

Bai Xiaoxiao watched as Xiao Yuting walked in. He didn’t walk over to her bed, but instead went straight to the window. He completely ignored the fact that he was a guest and casually took the flowers out of the vase by the window.

He wanted to put his flowers into the vase, but before he could, Bai Xiaoxiao asked him coldly.

Xiao Yuting, holding the bouquet in one hand, smiled at Bai Xiaoxiao, “I’m here to replace the flowers for you. The flowers from yesterday are not as fresh as those from today.”

“I prefer not fresh.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s tone was cold and filled with strong displeasure. In the past, when she liked Xiao Yuting, she could tolerate all his presumptions. But now, with her fondness for him gone, suddenly, she found this kind of behavior extremely annoying.

The smile on Xiao Yuting’s face froze, his hand holding the flowers stiffened mid-action.

He looked at Bai Xiaoxiao lying on the hospital bed as if looking at a stranger, “Xiaoxiao, you used to love the flowers I bought you the most.”

“Like you said, it was in the past.” Luo Haofeng laughed derisively, getting up from his chair and walking over to Xiao Yuting. He spoke carelessly, “Now, Xiaoxiao doesn’t even like you as a person. Naturally, she would no longer like your flowers either.”

He took the bouquet from Xiao Yuting’s hand, put it back into the vase, picked up the vase and said, “This bouquet will take at least a week to wilt. Young Master Xiao need not worry. Before it withers, someone will replace it with fresh flowers. Isn’t that right, Xiaoxiao?”

Xiao Yuting stared at Luo Haofeng’s triumphant face in disbelief and asked, “Xiaoxiao, you can’t be into him, can you? He’s known as a playboy and heartbreaker, don’t you fall for him.”

“Who I like has nothing to do with you. If you came here just to make such pointless remarks, you can leave now.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice was as calm as water, emotionless. This made Xiao Yuting’s face turn from pale to white, not knowing whether it was embarrassment or anger.
