Chapter 144 - 144: 143 Watching a play

MO Xiuchen ordered softly. The middle-aged man, relieved as if he had been pardoned, quickly nodded in agreement and hurriedly fled the office like a fugitive.

“Xiuchen, did you just let him go like that?”

Luo Haofeng asked, his visage marked with regret. He had been anticipating a great show, he didn’t expect MO Xiuchen to easily let the man free. Qin Mu looked at the expression on MO Xiuchen’s face and took up the conversation: “Even if we interrogated him further, he would have given the same answers. Instead of that, we should first find the location of the public phone used. I can ask Uncle Ming for help again to find out who called him.

After that, everything will be easy.”

“Didn’t you suspect before that Cheng Jia was playing a trick by pretending to be a victim? Could it be Cheng Jia who went to F City to make the call?”

“He didn’t leave F City those days. So, the call couldn’t have been made by her.”

Qin Mu thoughtfully said. After pausing, his expression changed slightly and he added: “Unless, something was done to the phone number, just like the night when Wen Ran received a call from Xiuchen’s number.”

They analyzed the situation, one point at a time. But neither of them suspected Wen Ran, which made MO Xiuchen feel relieved. It seemed that even if someone framed Wen Ran, no one would believe it.

He interrupted the discussion between Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu and said casually: “Cheng Jia suddenly had a headache in the hospital, I’m going to see her there. You guys can leave.”

“Are you going to see Cheng Jia at the hospital? Aren’t you afraid that Wen Ran will be jealous?

Luo Haofeng’s lips curled up in a teasing smile, as he looked at him.

Meanwhile, Qin Mu thoughtfully said: “I heard from Little Liu that when Cheng Jia spoke to Wen Ran, she behaved like a shrew, completely different from her usual gentle and weak demeanor.”

Little Liu knew this because MO Xiuchen wanted to know how Cheng Jia behaved behind his back but did not want to watch the video himself. So, he assigned the challenging task to Little Liu.

Frankly, Little Liu didn’t need to watch the video to know Cheng Jia’s true nature. She always acted weak, gentle, and understanding in front of MO Xiuchen. However, in front of him, Cheng Jia always carried herself like a cold and haughty young mistress, completely forgetting her social status.

“I happen to be free, I will also go and join the fun. Maybe she will fall in love with me at first sight, that would also be doing you a great favor.”

Qin Mu managed the pharmaceutical factory in H City. In G City, he couldn’t say he didn’t have anything to do, but he wasn’t as busy as Luo Haofeng. Luo Haofeng’s casual appearance made it clear that he was just going to watch the spectacle, and not actually providing any help.

He had heard MO Xiuchen’s phone call just now.

Qin Mu rolled his eyes, stood up along with the others and said, “While you go to the hospital, I’ll keep an eye on the construction site. If Xiao Wenqing finds out that the chairman is in a hurry to hand over the group to you, she will surely try to stir up some trouble. We can’t afford any problems with the project.”

MO Xiuchen nodded, “Alright, you may go.”

While Wen Ran was waiting for MO Xiuchen at the hospital, she also went to visit her brother.

Wen Jin was recovering quickly from his leg injury. According to his current progress, he should be able to return to the company in two months at most.

“Ranran, have you had nightmares lately?”

Wen Jin looked at Wen Ran, who was sitting by his bed. She looked much better than when he first woke up. At that time, she looked a bit worn out. But now, her complexion was improving day by day, and her youthful innocence was replaced by a soft and charming femininity.

All these changes were surely due to MO Xiuchen.

MO Xiuchen’s kindness toward his sister was not just something Wen Ran had told him. Many people had mentioned it, including Sister Li, who believed that their parents would have been very relieved if they had been alive to see Wen Ran find such an outstanding man.

Wen Ran smiled lightly, her eyes filled with joy as she said breezily: “I haven’t had a nightmare for a long time now.”

She found it strange herself. The nightmares that had plagued her since childhood had, miraculously, vanished. With the exception of a single occurrence when she was on a business trip in F City, she hadn’t had the nightmare on any night when she shared a bed with MO Xiuchen.

If it could be said that having someone by her side prevented the nightmares, then her mother had been with her before, and Bai Xiaoxiao had also shared a bed with her on the night in F City. However, neither had any effect.

Wen Jin’s eyes flickered slightly, his smile gentle and indulgent as he said: “It’s good that you’re not having nightmares anymore. Your complexion is also much better. If our parents knew that you’ve overcome those nightmares, they would rest in peace.”

Upon mentioning their parents, a wave of sorrow rose in Wen Ran’s heart. The smile on her face faded, and she looked at Wen Jin, repeating a question she had asked countless times: “Brother, do you think that dream could be something I’ve experienced before?”

Wen Jin shook his head with a smile: “How could it be? Since you were born, you have been the gem of our family. We treated you like a pearl, so fragile that we feared you might melt in our mouths or fall from our hands. How could you have ever looked like a beggar or experienced anything like what happens in your dreams?”

Wen Ran puckered her lips, this was something she had never been able to understand. In her dreams, she really appeared like a little beggar. Sometimes, she wished her dreams were clearer and more complete. However, they were always just scattered fragments, all inducing a sense of unexplainable fear.

The sudden ring of her phone interrupted their conversation. Wen Ran took out her phone and a smile appeared in her eyes while looking at the screen:

“MO Xiuchen is calling, he should be at the hospital now. Brother, I will go see Cheng Jia first.”

Wen Jin watched the look of contentment in his sister’s eyes and felt a trace of bitterness. Despite him being the one who should feel happy for her, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sourness. His sister, who he had cared for over a decade, had ‘been stolen’ by another man. “Go ahead. If Cheng Jia bullies you, don’t endure it silently.”

Wen Jin smiled gently, repeating his cautionary words.

Even if their parents were gone, she still had her brother. She was, and always would be, the precious gem of the Wen family, not a target for Cheng Jia to hurt or bully.

Wen Ran raised an eyebrow and smiled mischievously: “Brother, I understand. Whether it’s Cheng Jia or Li Jia, whoever dares to bully me, I will fight back fiercely. I won’t let you down.”

“That’s more like it!”

Wen Jin waved his hand, signaling her to hurry up.

As soon as MO Xiuchen walked into the hospital lobby, he called Wen Ran. After two rings, he was hung up on. The ever-teasing Luo Haofeng, who was walking beside him, chuckled and said: “Seems like Wen Ran is jealous and not answering your calls.”

MO Xiuchen glanced at him and entered the elevator. Instead of pressing the number of Cheng Jia’s floor, he pressed the number of the floor where Wen Jin was staying.

As he exited the elevator, he saw Wen Ran leaving the ward. Moxiuchen’s stern facial features instantly softened upon seeing her. Luo Haofeng, who was standing beside him, squinted his eyes and joked: “You and Wen Ran really have a special connection, how did you know she was here?”

MO Xiuchen turned his gaze back from Wen Ran and ordered Luo Haofeng: “You go and see Cheng Jia first, I’ll join you in a bit..”
