Chapter 570: 569 Good morning

As a result, this evening at Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, his demeanor was also indifferent and distant when she greeted his table.

He didn’t invite her to dine with them; instead, he asked Gu Kai, who was talking to her, not to disturb her dinner with Xiao Yuting. The implication was as if he didn’t want to see her and wanted her to leave as soon as possible.

She shouldn’t have cared about these things, but for some reason, she did care.

His indifference, the subtle mockery and insinuation in his words, were as if a stone had been thrown into her calm heart, causing faint ripples.

During the meal, her mind was always elsewhere. The picture that appeared most profoundly in her mind was the one from early morning when she sought Luo Haofeng’s help, and he really came to save her, holding her in his arms.

Even now, she could distinctly remember the sensation when Luo Haofeng held her in his arms and his fresh and pleasant breath entered her nostrils, as if an invisible hand had strummed her heartstrings.

And the way he looked at her, full of deep concern…

She remembered her mother’s words, “Ranran, you can’t be with Luo Haofeng.” She frowned and a bitter smile appeared on her lips. Now her mother could rest assured.

Luo Haofeng wouldn’t come looking for her anymore.

Her phone on the bedside table suddenly beeped twice. There was a new message.

Bai Xiaoxiao was surprised. She picked up her phone, unlocked it, and read the message.

Seeing the content of the message, her lips pursed slightly and a faint sneer flashed in her eyes. It was amusing, the man who had been so disgusted and indifferent towards her for over twenty years was now so gentle and polite towards her.

The message was from Xiao Yuting.

Not only did he thank her for visiting his mother, but he also apologized for the way he had hurt her over the past twenty years. He asked her if she would go to the hospital again tomorrow, he would pick her up.

Tomorrow was the day of his mother’s surgery. She stared at the phone for a few seconds before putting it back on the table without replying to his message.

The next morning, Wen Ran woke up very early.

By the time she woke up, the man beside her was still sound asleep. She blinked, shaking off her drowsy sleepiness. Her eyes rested on his handsome face for a moment before she tried to quietly get up.

However, as soon as she moved, Mo Xiuchen woke up.

Upon opening his eyes, his slender eyes looked at her, his mouth immediately curved into a soft smile, “Ranran, you’re awake!”

“Hmm, good morning.”

Wen Ran also responded with a gentle smile. The happiest thing in the world was just like what she and he were doing now. They said ‘good night’ to each other at night and held each other until morning. When they opened their eyes, they said ‘good morning’ to each other.

They didn’t need a passionate love, or a tumultuous love affair, let alone countless vows and sweet words. As long as they could be with each other day and night, they felt it was enough.

The response from Mo Xiuchen was an indulgent kiss. Although this kiss was on her forehead, it made her feel more excited than if he had kissed her lips.

A kiss without any thought, pure affection, and love. He held her shoulder lightly, the adoration in his narrowed eyes unable to fade away.

It seemed that she was the most precious treasure in his heart.

After gazing at her for a while, he turned around, got out of bed, and said to her, “Ranran, wait a moment. I’m going to get your clothes.” Then he turned and went to the wardrobe to find her clothes.

After Wen Ran had gotten dressed and was freshening up, Mo Xiuchen checked the suitcase he had packed in the middle of the night. He looked up at Wen Ran, who was standing in front of the dressing table. “Ranran, is there anything else you need to bring?”

Wen Ran turned her head to look at the man squatting in front of the suitcase. His handsome face was lit up by the first rays of morning light from the french windows. She was momentarily dazed at that sight.

Mo Xiuchen’s long and narrow eyes slightly closed, a light smile curved at the corner of his mouth, waiting patiently for her answer.

“Nothing else.”

She came to her senses and looked at the open suitcase in front of him.

He nodded, “Good if there’s nothing else.”

In fact, other than important documents, clothes and daily necessities could be bought later in D Country. He only asked casually.

He stood up, pulling a suitcase with one hand and holding her hand with the other and heading downstairs.

When they reached the staircase, Wen Ran’s phone rang.

Mo Xiuchen let go of her hand, lifted the suitcase and went downstairs, while she followed behind, answering the phone as she went down the stairs.

“Ranran, I won’t be sending you off in a bit. When you come back, I’ll meet you at the airport.”

It was Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice from the phone. Wen Ran didn’t mind and replied with a light and soft tone, “Okay, you must get proper rest, don’t tire yourself out. Your leg hasn’t fully recovered. Just meet me at the airport when I come back.”

Last night when they had talked on the phone, Bai Xiaoxiao said she would see her off in the morning.

Now, for some reason or another, she had changed her mind.

“When you arrive, call me. Make sure your phone is always on, I need to be able to contact you at any time,” Bai Xiaoxiao instructed over the phone.

Wen Ran chuckled lightly, “I know, you’re such a nag.”

“You dare to say that I’m nagging!”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s tone suddenly rose and was full of displeasure. Wen Ran was almost deafened by her voice and quickly surrendered, “I’m wrong, I’m wrong. I’m going to have breakfast now, let’s leave it here.”

She had just hung up the phone when she saw Little Liu leading in Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu, cheerfully announcing, “Master and Madam, Young Master Luo and Young Master Qin have arrived.”

Mo Xiuchen had already set the suitcase down and was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. When he heard Little Liu’s words, he looked up at Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu.

In the kitchen, Nanny Zhang brought out breakfast. Seeing Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu, she immediately greeted them with a smile and said that she had made extra breakfast so that they could have breakfast together with the Master and Madam.

“Nanny Zhang, you’re the best.”

Luo Haofeng thanked Zhang with a honeyed voice. Qin Mu looked at Wen Ran and walked over to the sofa, looking at the suitcase that Mo Xiuchen had put by the side, “Is everything ready?”

“Hmm.”

Wen Ran nodded with a gentle smile. Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu exchanged glances, a subtle smile curving up their lips, “There’s still a lot of time, let’s have breakfast first.”

“Huh, Xiuchen, did you know that Ah Mu and I would come early today, so you asked Nanny Zhang to prepare such a lavish breakfast?”

Luo Haofeng entered the dining room and, seeing the sumptuous breakfast, his eyes lit up instantly.

Just as his voice fell, a jovial voice came from the entrance, “Something smells good, coming early is not as good as coming timely. It seems I just came at the right time!”
