“MO Zixuan is for the child in her belly, not for her.”

Even though MO Xiuchen didn’t want to bring up MO Zixuan, when Wen Ran mentioned him, he had no choice but to explain. As he defended MO Zixuan’s decision verbally, he couldn’t help but wonder what MO Zixuan and Zhou Lin knew.

If Wen Ran hadn’t brought it up tonight, he would have ignored it altogether.

Earlier, when Wen Ran was kidnapped in F City, his full attention was on her. The two of them became a true married couple in F City and after they returned, he was busy with work and didn’t have the time to fret about MO Zixuan.

“I know MO Zixuan. He’s not the kind to easily make compromises. Even if Zhou Lin is bearing his child or even if she is to marry him, he wouldn’t be kind to her. Yet, he not only went to F City to bring Zhou Lin back but also went and found my brother in the hospital.”

She remembered that day at the elevator entrance, MO Zixuan told her that Wen Jin was the one who asked him to come. He also said that she will find out one day that he is the one who loves her the most and treats her the best.

MO Xiuchen’s expression changed slightly as he looked at her with knit brows,

“Ranran. vou don’t think that MO Zixuan brought Zhou Lin back for vou. do

you? Don’t tell me you truly believe that even though you are married to me, his feelings for you won’t ever change?”

“Don’t change the subject. You know that’s not what I mean.”

Wen Ran retorted unhappily. She seldom used such a tone with MO Xiuchen. MO Xiuchen was momentarily taken aback by her discontent and obediently closed his mouth.

Seeing him obediently close his mouth, Wen Ran softened her tone by a fraction, “Ever since we got married, I stopped concerning myself with whatever MO Zixuan does. Therefore, what makes me suspicious, is not MO Zixuan’s behavior, but yours.”

A flicker of a strange emotion swirled in the depth of MO Xiuchen’s eyes as a

glimmer of light flashed through them. A complex emotion that seemed like both joy and guilt popped up in his heart because of her words.

A guilty feeling for getting angry at her just now.

He once promised not to get angry with her easily. However, his emotions were easily swayed by her. Her highs and lows affected him and seeing her having intimate interactions with Wen Jin, he can’t help but feel jealous.

The more MO Xiuchen thought about it, the more he felt that he shouldn’t have behaved like that. He suddenly reached out and took Wen Ran’s cool hand and looked at her with deep eyes, “Ranran, there is a lot to do tomorrow. Let’s end our chat here today. Once we’re done with these busy days, I’ll slowly find time to chat with you. Is that okay?”

Wen Ran’s red lips slightly pursed, her eyes calmly looking at him. Once she become suspicious, if she doesn’t get an answer, she would not be able to feel at ease.

However, MO Xiuchen would not easily divulge it to her. Firstly, he believes that she shouldn’t know about her own identity just yet, at least until the lab results from Gu Kai were out.

Secondly, he didn’t understand why the couple Wen Jin and Wen Hongrui kept Wen Ran’s origin a secret from her, and why her memories from before she was six were blank.

There were too many doubts, too many puzzles that he needed to solve one by one.

He lifted his other hand and lightly stroke her smooth and fair face with his slender fingers. The cause of his jealousy earlier, was merely seeing Wen Jin touching her face. He couldn’t contain his irritation and uttered unthinkingly.

MO Xiuchen secretly reminded himself, that he must not act like this next time. His admired calmness should not crumble as soon as he confronts this little lady.

“Ranran, do you remember what you promised me this afternoon?”

“You’re not angry anymore?

Wen Ran looked at him blankly, still confused. They were clearly talking about serious matters, and he was clearly still angry with her just now.. How did things change so suddenly?
