Chapter 942: If he dares to do it again next time
Gu Kai’s eyes flickered, and after swallowing the apple in his mouth, he took over the conversation:
“Ranran, Jiang Liu and Yuting are both adults; they should know what they are doing and be responsible for their actions. You don’t need to feel sad for them. Now that Yuting knows Jiang Liu quit his job to work at the nightclub and is anxious to find him, she must still have some feelings for him. Call Jiang Liu tomorrow, set up a time and place, and let Yuting know, but you don’t need to get involved, alright?”
“Yes, I know.”
Wen Ran nodded gently, knowing that Jiang Liu and Shen Yuting’s affair indeed didn’t necessitate her involvement.
It was just that Jiang Liu had a face somewhat similar to Mo Xiuchen’s and often displayed a temperament that reminded her of Mo Xiuchen. She had never disliked Jiang Liu.
Back then in A City, Jiang Liu had even helped them.
Now, even though Jiang Liu and Shen Yuting had broken up, Wen Ran hoped he wouldn’t fall into degeneracy.
Gu Kai chuckled, about to say something when Mo Xiuchen’s tall figure walked in from the entryway. Seeing him, Wen Ran’s eyes filled with joy, and she immediately got up from the couch to greet him.
Mo Xiuchen, looking at Wen Ran approaching, had his handsome brows tinted with deep indulgence, and his profound eyes tenderly gazed at her, “Ranran!”
“How come you’re back so soon, have you eaten yet?”

Wen Ran’s eyes were brimming with joy, and her voice was even softer and more delightful. She hadn’t expected Mo Xiuchen to return so quickly.
Seeing her joy, Mo Xiuchen felt immensely satisfied. He reached out and took Wen Ran’s hand with a natural gesture that was filled with tenderness and affection.
With his other hand, he brushed over the wispy hair on her forehead and said gently, “I haven’t eaten yet.”
“I’ll cook something for you. What would you like to eat?”
On hearing he hadn’t eaten, Wen Ran immediately tried to pull her hand free from his grip, but Mo Xiuchen chuckled softly, tightening his grip slightly, not letting her pull away, “No need for you to cook, I’ll just have Nanny Zhang whip up something for me.”
“Ranran, you didn’t marry Mo Xiuchen to cook for him. Come here, we were in the middle of our chat. How come as soon as Mo Xiuchen returns, you only have eyes for him?”
Gu Kai, still in the couch, complained while eating his apple, but his brows were filled with laughter, clearly delighted that Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen were so happily sweet together.
“Alright, then I’ll have Nanny Zhang make something for you,” Wen Ran said after glancing at Gu Kai, then turned her head to Mo Xiuchen, signaling him to let go of her hand.
As soon as Nanny Zhang heard their voices, she immediately came out from the kitchen. Mo Xiuchen gave her a couple of instructions and then sat down on the couch with Wen Ran’s hand still in his.
“Ah Kai, didn’t you have enough to eat?” His gaze swept over the apple in Gu Kai’s hand, which was only one-fifth left, and his brow slightly furrowed with concern.
Gu Kai raised an eyebrow, “Yeah, I’m not fully satisfied. You weren’t home, and I feared you’d feel bad if I ate too much.”
“You eating an apple makes me feel just as bad. Fruit is more expensive than rice,” said Mo Xiuchen with a nonchalant expression, his deep voice carrying no hint of jest, as if he truly bemoaned Gu Kai eating his large apples.
Suddenly discontent, Gu Kai complained, “Mo Xiuchen, aren’t you being a bit too stingy? I’ve married my sister off to you, and you can’t even bear letting me eat an apple. Sheesh, isn’t it just that you currently find me an eyesore and want to drive me away?”
With a pout, he stood up as though he was about to leave, but then sat back down when Mo Xiuchen’s mouth curved into a smile, “I haven’t finished talking with Ranran, I refuse to leave.”
Wen Ran laughed lightly and turned to Mo Xiuchen, asking gently, “Mo Xiuchen, how did it go with Li Yaqing?”
“Don’t worry, she wouldn’t dare to publicize that matter.”
Mo Xiuchen’s thin lips curved into a smile, elegant and distinguished. His composed words instantly settled Wen Ran’s uneasy heart.
A smile blossomed between her brows, “Mo Xiuchen, you didn’t agree to any of her conditions, did you?”
“No, I negotiated terms with her,” Mo Xiuchen patted her hand to reassure her and glanced at the curious Gu Kai before explaining leisurely, “I had Ah Mu investigate Li Yunchang before, and when he came to me on his own to discuss the loan, I never inquired about the investigation results. On my way to meet Li Yaqing today, I called Ah Mu again.”
“So, Li Yaqing tried to threaten you but ended up being threatened by you instead,” Gu Kai picked up the conversation with a laugh.
“Something like that!”
The corners of Mo Xiuchen’s mouth lifted. Li Yaqing was the one who tried to threaten him first.
He didn’t discuss conditions with her over the phone but agreed to meet her face to face. It was merely to let her get her hopes up for a while; the bigger the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Thinking of Li Yaqing’s pale face filled him with great pleasure. He would not be courteous to anyone, man or woman, who wanted to harm his Ranran.
After finishing an apple, Gu Kai finally stood up and said, “I’m going home. Next time you go meet another woman, you might as well invite me to keep Ranran company for dinner, or just send her straight to my place.”
“Bro, it’s still early. What’s the rush?”
“It’s not me who’s in a hurry. It’s Mo Xiuchen who can’t wait for me to leave. Ranran, remember this, next time he dares to abandon you to meet up with some other woman, go straight home.”
After saying that, Gu Kai left before Mo Xiuchen could react.
After Gu Kai left, Wen Ran accompanied Mo Xiuchen for dinner and didn’t immediately go upstairs. Instead, they sat in the living room chatting.
Mo Xiuchen told Wen Ran in detail about his meeting with Li Yaqing that evening. After listening, Wen Ran recalled the phone call from Shen Yuting and said, “Mo Xiuchen, Sister Ting called me just now.”
“Shen Yuting?”
Mo Xiuchen’s brows furrowed, and his expression cooled down a notch.
Seeing this, Wen Ran smiled gently and raised her hand to smooth his furrowed brow, “Don’t be angry. Sister Ting called because of Jiang Liu.”
“What does that mean?” Mo Xiuchen asked, puzzled. Why would Shen Yuting involving Jiang Liu’s business bother his Ranran?
Wen Ran explained the situation of how Shen Yuting couldn’t find Jiang Liu and asked for her help. After listening, the displeasure in Mo Xiuchen’s brow didn’t lessen.
“Ranran, Shen Yuting didn’t know how to cherish Jiang Liu, you don’t have to bother with her. If she truly wants to win Jiang Liu back, she can find him if she searches every nightclub one by one.”
Mo Xiuchen was extremely dissatisfied with Shen Yuting asking for Ranran’s help.
She had broken up with Jiang Liu, and now that she couldn’t contact him, why should she come to Ranran? Jiang Liu had deliberately imitated his mannerisms, and he didn’t want Ranran to have any contact with him.
Wen Ran looked at Mo Xiuchen, his features stern, and sighed softly, “Mo Xiuchen, I’m just helping Sister Ting set up a meeting with Jiang Liu, I won’t be seeing him. Actually, even not for Sister Ting, Jiang Liu had once helped me out. Let’s just consider it repaying a favor.”
