“Such a boast, I wonder if you have the capability to win.”

Luo Haofeng retorted provocatively. Gu Kai and Wen Jin, both spectators who neither won nor lost, just watched the drama with amusement, unperturbed about who would win or lose.

Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at the money on the table and at the confident Mo Xiuchen. She warned worriedly, “Luo Haofeng, you better not lose this money back to me.”

Luo Haofeng squinted his eyes and assured, “Rest easy, as long as I’m here, we will not lose.”

Mo’s mansion

Mo Jingteng sought Mo Zixuan for a reckoning after Mo Xiuchen left.

The atmosphere in the living room was strange–

“Zixuan, be honest with me. Have you been in contact with Xiao Wenqing? The fact about Wen Ran not being able to reproduce, was it not from your examination but from what Xiao Wenqing said, right?”

Mo Jingteng stared sharply at Mo Zixuan, whether it was because he was guilty or just less composed than Mo Xiuchen. His eyes were somewhat evasive.

“I didn’t.”

“If not, then who told you about Wen Ran’s infertility?”

A sharp look flashed in Mo Jingteng’s eyes. His sudden rise in voice startled Mo Zixuan, turning his face slightly pale.

“I heard it from the doctor at Kangning Hospital. I promised him not to tell anyone.”

Mo Zixuan looked up, trying his best to meet Mo Jingteng’s harsh gaze. He cursed inwardly at Mo Xiuchen’s scheming face for probably say something to Mo Jingteng.

“Zixuan, I just told Xiuchen that I will not hand over the company to anyone, especially to the treacherous Xiao Wenqing and her adulterer Wu Tianyi. I will not be manipulated.”

Mo Jingteng’s words left Mo Zixuan confused.

Deep down, he was shocked.

“A few days ago, Xiao Wenqing appeared in City B. The wounds on her face were completely healed. I don’t believe that she hasn’t contacted you. If you really want to stay in the company, then tell me the truth. If I find out, your mother’s fate will be yours.”

At the end of his threat, there was a ruthless look in Mo Jingteng’s eyes that made people feel uneasy.

“I said it before, she hasn’t contacted me.”

Mo Zixuan insisted and faced Mo Jingteng’s bloodthirsty eyes. He felt a jolt in his heart and said coldly, “You believed Mo Xiuchen’s words so easily, thinking I was lying to you. If that’s the case, I have nothing to say. The fact that Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran have been married for so long without having a child is true.”

“That’s because Xiuchen has a problem, not Wen Ran.”

Mo Jingteng became angry at the mention of this.

Mo Zixuan looked shocked, “Did Mo Xiuchen tell you this?”

“Yes, Xiuchen admitted it himself. He was injured years ago and although he has been taking medicine for years, he has only recovered partially and his reproductive function is compromised.”

It wasn’t that Mo Jingteng blindly believed Mo Xiuchen’s words, but he couldn’t find a reason not to believe him.

Mo Xiuchen’s injury was Xiao Wenqing’s handiwork. Back then, even the best specialists brought in by Gu Kai weren’t sure they could fully cure him, so it was understandable that there were lingering health issues.

“Hmph, Mo Xiuchen was deceiving you. I can’t provide evidence right now, but one day, I will provide evidence to prove that the one with the issue is Wen Ran, not Mo Xiuchen.”

Mo Zixuan, trying to make Mo Jingteng believe him, added further: “Mo Xiuchen regards Wen Ran more important than himself. If there were any problems, they were his own. Why would he hide Wen Ran’s identity otherwise? There is only one reason: the one with the problem is Wen Ran and both him and Gu Yan’s father want to hide the truth. Even Wen Ran herself doesn’t know.”

“He was once rumored to be impotent and the whole G City knew about it. Now, admitting his infertility is nothing. He would do anything to protect Wen Ran.”

Mo Jingteng’s face darkened once again.

There seemed to be some truth in Mo Zixuan’s words.

Just a moment ago, Mo Xiuchen, before leaving, had stated that he didn’t care about the entire business group. What he cared about was only Wen Ran.

Apparently, he regarded Wen Ran more important than his own life, not to mention fame and wealth.

At the Wen family, when Mo Xiuchen and others left, it was already eleven o’clock at night.

After dinner, they continued to play mahjong for over an hour. Mo Xiuchen won back the money Wen Ran had lost, but mercifully did not gamble for any of Bai Xiaoxiao’s money.

When leaving, Luo Haofeng offered to drive Bai Xiaoxiao home before Wen Ran could even speak.

That evening, he and Bai Xiaoxiao did not argue and their cooperation was somewhat pleasant. Bai Xiaoxiao did not reject his offer, instead reminding Wen Ran and the others to be careful on the way home.

“Luo Haofeng, you must ensure Xiaoxiao’s safe arrival at the hospital. Tomorrow morning, I’ll pick her up from the hospital.”

“I want to go home. You don’t need to return me to the hospital, just drop me home.”

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled at Wen Ran and turned her head to tell Luo Haofeng.

Luo Haofeng’s gaze halted on her fair face for a few seconds before the corners of his lips twitched into a smile, “Alright, I’ll take you home. As for the hospital, let Ah Kai handle it, the discharge process should be completed already.”

“No problem.”

Gu Kai raised his eyebrows and agreeably responded.

Wen Ran nodded with a smile, “That’ll do, Xiaoxiao. Tomorrow, I’ll come over to pick you up.”

Luo Haofeng bent down, lifted Bai Xiaoxiao out of the chair. Bai Xiaoxiao stiffened for a moment then let him carry her out of the living room and down the steps. At the car, he opened the door and set her inside.

Outside, with the dim light, her blushing face was not noticeable.

Luo Haofeng closed the car door for her, walked around to the other side, opened the door, and got in.

“Need any help?”

Seeing her fasten the seatbelt, he asked gently. His features softened, his casual demeanor absent. A warm smile flashed in his elongated peach blossom eyes.

Bai Xiaoxiao gave him a soft smile, “No need, I can do it myself.”

The phone rang, Luo Haofeng pulled out his cell phone and answered, “Hello, Mom!”

Hearing his words, Bai Xiaoxiao looked up at him, slightly surprised.

Who knows what his mother said on the other end, Luo Haofeng’s handsome eyebrows furrowed and a trace of impatience showed on his handsome face, “Mom, if you want me to come back just to introduce me to someone, then I’ll spend the year in G City.”

He turned his head towards Bai Xiaoxiao, her eyes flickered and she lowered her head.

“I told you before, I can handle my own matters. You want a daughter-in-law, right? In a few days, I’ll bring one home.”

Luo Haofeng glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao seeing her lowered head, he turned away his face, looking straight ahead.

After saying a few more words to his mother, he hung up. He glimpsed Bai Xiaoxiao through the rearview mirror. She kept her head down the entire time, lost in thought.

“Xiaoxiao!”

Luo Haofeng pursed his lips, softly calling her name.

Bai Xiaoxiao lifted her head, meeting his long narrow eyes before blinking, “Can we go now?”

Luo Haofeng gave a playful smile. His words, on the tip of his tongue, were changed, “Alright, buckle up, let’s go!”
