Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict - Chapter 446

Chapter 446: 445 is finally answering calls now

Not only did Wen Ran fail to make a call back to G City that night, but for the next few days, she did not have time to make any calls either.

Mo Xiuchen packed her days with non-stop activities. The next morning, after breakfast, he took her out to sea on a cruise. Under the radiant sunshine, Wen Ran nestled in Mo Xiuchen’s arms, listening to him narrate about the local customs and culture. They offered many exciting activities out in the open sea.

Because he mentioned Bali Island’s best-known Sea God Temple the previous day, and Wen Ran was fascinated by it, Mo Xiuchen took her there on the third day. They had fun and ate while strolling along, arriving at the temple at dusk.

The Sea God Temple was exceptionally elegant under the setting sun, with the emerald sea resembling a beautiful skirt, adding an extra touch of tranquillity and elegance to the temple.

Most tourists in Bali would visit this place. Even in the evenings, there were still plenty of tourists. Once they stepped through the massive gate, they found themselves amidst an open vista with waves crashing in. Mo Xiuchen, laughing, pulled her into his arms, took out his phone, and captured their joyous smiles.

Wen Ran moved away from his embrace and walked towards the rocks where the sea waves were crashing. After taking a few steps, she turned around and waved at Mo Xiuchen.

Mo Xiuchen smiled warmly, holding his phone to record the woman with the sea as her backdrop. Her smile was as bewitching as a blossom, beautifully recorded in the video. Even decades later, she would still appear so youthful and stunning.

“Ranran, where do you want to go next?”

Mo Xiuchen asked, watching Wen Ran spread her arms and stroll around the rocks. His eyes were filled with intense affection.

“Ah… I haven’t decided yet. How about we go see a volcano!”

“Sure!”

Mo Xiuchen nodded, his voice tender beyond words.

G City

Three days later, the rumor about Wen Ran being infertile was completely suppressed.

The next day, every newspaper, following the explanation given by Gu Kai and others at the press conference, published a different story. Not only did it debunk the rumors from the previous day, but it also painted a romantic picture of Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran’s love story, almost tear-jerking in its melodrama.

After this love story, some journalists continued investigating the truth behind the incident years ago. On the third day, they wrote another feature on how Mo Xiuchen was kidnapped, how many days later he was rescued, and his condition after being rescued.

On the fourth day, the truth about Xiao Wenqing causing Mo Xiuchen’s mother to jump off the building, and being the instigator behind his kidnapping that almost killed him, was exposed on the front page, along with her treacherous husband, Wu Tianyi.

Mo Zixuan once again became the center of media attention. Finding himself cornered, he announced in the newspapers that he had severed his mother-son relationship. Now, he was just a descendant of the Mo family, the son of Mo Jingteng, and vice-chairman of the MS Group.

Mo Jingteng wanted to stop the incident from the past from being dug out, but he was completely helpless facing the media’s persistence. He was unable to keep the incident from years ago from becoming the talk of the day.

This all seemed like it was being directed by a hand in the background. It was happening according to a plan, but who was exactly behind this was still unknown.

Luo Haofeng, Qin Mu, and Gu Kai had dinner while discussing the gossip trend of the past few days.

“That guy Xiuchen really has a beautiful companion and has left us in the dust. He’s been away with Wen Ran for so many days, and he hasn’t even made a single call. He doesn’t care about what’s happening in G City at all.”

Luo Haofeng swallowed his food and complained unpleasantly. These days, while Xiuchen was going around carelessly, they were working like beasts of burden.

Qin Mu faintly smiled and said leisurely, “When Xiuchen gets back, you can have your female confidante and go on a romantic trip. Ah Kai, didn’t Xiuchen call you either?”

Gu Kai shook his head, “No.”

“Then let’s call him. It’s been so long and even if he doesn’t miss us, we can still miss him.”

“As long as he answers your call, you can do whatever you want.”

Qin Mu said nonchalantly, taking a piece of vegetable elegantly with his chopsticks.

Luo Haofeng didn’t believe it. Could Mo Xiuchen keep his phone shut off forever, or never pick up his calls? There must be a time when he would turn it on, and when he would answer a call.

Gu Kai and Qin Mu smiled and watched him dial Mo Xiuchen’s number.

After a few seconds, the call connected and Luo Haofeng showed a triumphant smile, “He picked up.”

On the other side of the phone, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran were having Bali’s famous cuisine in an elegant restaurant. Wen Ran had gone to the restroom and hadn’t returned when the phone rang.

There was a moment of hesitation on his face before he pressed the answer button. His voice, low and magnetic, filled the thin air, “Hello, Ah Feng!”

“Xiuchen, you finally deigned to answer the phone. If you didn’t, Ah Mu and I would’ve gone on strike.”

Luo Haofeng first showed a delighted smile, then quickly started to complain again. Mo Xiuchen wasn’t surprised to hear Qin Mu was back in G City. Even though he hadn’t called him the previous night, he knew that Qin Mu would rush back once he saw the news.

“Has the incident been settled?”

Mo Xiuchen leaned back in his chair, a touch of laziness in his handsome features.

These days, he had been taking Ranran around, seeing her bloom-like smiles and hearing her soft and sweet voice. Nothing from G City could affect them.

What a delightful feeling.

“It’s settled. Everything is going according to your plan. Today, Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi’s deeds have been exposed. Although you’re in Bali, you could know the latest happenings in G City if you wanted to.”

As Luo Haofeng neared the end of the sentence, he started to feel indignant again.

“I don’t want to know. I’ve finally arranged a vacation for myself. Why should I concern myself with people and incidents that would affect my mood? Besides, you, Ah Mu, Ah Kai, and Wen Jin are there. I trust that you all can settle it.”

“You really trust us. You haven’t been in contact with Ah Mu. How would you know he’s back?”

Luo Haofeng glanced at Qin Mu sitting beside him and asked disgruntledly.

“I knew.” Mo Xiuchen answered succinctly.

They’d been friends for more than twenty years, sharing a brotherly bond. Even if Qin Mu was abroad, he would immediately fly back once he heard the news.

“Is Ranran there? Are you willing to take our call because she isn’t with you?”

When Gu Kai spoke, Qin Mu slightly paused, his chopsticks in hand as he stared fixedly at Luo Haofeng’s phone.

“Ranran isn’t here.”

Mo Xiuchen smiled gently, mentioning Wen Ran’s name softened his entire demeanor.
