Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1924: Chapter 1923: What Happened to Him?

“Ranran, An Lin, why are Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu not here?”

At noon, Wen Ran invited Bai Xiaoxiao for lunch. When they arrived at the restaurant, Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu were not in sight.

They only saw Gu Kai and Wen Jin each holding a child, surrounded by several other children.

After chatting for a bit, while eating, Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu were still absent.

Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but ask in confusion.

When they came, they arrived together. Given Mo Xiuchen’s nature, he wouldn’t leave Wen Ran and the three kids to run off on his own.

Qin Mu wouldn’t leave An Lin and Qingqing behind either.

Upon hearing Bai Xiaoxiao’s words, Wen Ran’s eyes flickered with hesitation about whether to tell her.

An Lin, who was also asked, showed a trace of anomaly on her face and instinctively looked at Wen Ran with inquiry in her eyes.

“They had something urgent to attend to and left first. We don’t have to wait for them; after eating, we’ll go pick some fruit.” Wen Ran answered with a smile.

Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t mind. Since Ranran said Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu had something to do, they definitely did.

After lunch, the group went to the tangerine orchard to pick tangerines.

Bai Xiaoxiao picked a tangerine, peeled it, and shared it with Wen Ran and the others. Just as she put a tangerine segment into her mouth, her phone started ringing.

Seeing the caller ID, a hint of confusion flashed in Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes.

Why was Xiao Yuting calling her again? He hadn’t called her since the last time, surely now focused on chasing Qiao Siyi.

“Hello.”

Bai Xiaoxiao pressed the answer button and spoke calmly.

Beside her, Wen Ran’s eyes flashed with concern as she quietly watched Bai Xiaoxiao.

Xiao Yuting’s voice came from the phone, “Xiaoxiao, where are you now? Do you want to go to City B together to see Luo Haofeng?”

“What?”

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, puzzled.

Xiao Yuting’s sudden mention left her perplexed. She had already told him last time that she and Luo Haofeng had broken up, yet every time he contacted her, it was about Luo Haofeng.

“Didn’t you know Luo Haofeng had an accident? I just booked a ticket to City B, do you want to go together?”

Xiao Yuting seemed surprised that Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t know about Luo Haofeng’s accident and asked with a hint of bewilderment.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression changed, and the next second, her voice carried a subtle urgency and worry, “What happened to him?”

After saying this, Bai Xiaoxiao looked up at Wen Ran beside her, suddenly thinking of Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu’s sudden departure at noon.

Wen Ran also frowned slightly.

Although she couldn’t hear what was being said on the phone, from Bai Xiaoxiao’s words and worried expression, she knew it was about Luo Haofeng.

“…”

“I understand, you go ahead.”

Whatever Xiao Yuting told Bai Xiaoxiao made her delicate face turn pale, and her hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

Her voice was stiff and restrained.

On the other end, Xiao Yuting, unsure why he insisted Bai Xiaoxiao go with him, remained persistent, “Xiaoxiao, I know even if you broke up with Luo Haofeng, you still love and care about him. He’s seriously injured now, aren’t you going to see him?”

“Don’t worry about me, go see Qiao Siyi.”

Bai Xiaoxiao tightly pursed her lips, and her voice became even colder.

“Alright, I’ll head to City B first; you think it over…”

A few steps away, An Lin stood under a tree, looking up at Ziyi, who was on a tree, with one hand making a gesture as if to support him, fearing he might fall.

Bai Yiyi, holding her son, watched Gu Kai, who was watching over Tongtong and Momo beside her, while Wen Jin took Xin Xin deeper into the orchard.

Only Wen Ran was watching Bai Xiaoxiao with a worried expression.

Bai Xiaoxiao gripped her phone tightly and asked Wen Ran, whose eyes were filled with concern, in a soft voice, “Ranran, you already knew about Luo Haofeng’s accident, didn’t you?”

“Xiaoxiao, Luo Haofeng is not in life-threatening danger; he didn’t want us to tell you because he was afraid you’d worry.”

Wen Ran explained apologetically.

Bai Xiaoxiao pressed her lips tightly, suppressing the worry in her heart, and asked as calmly as possible, “Ranran, just now Xiao Yuting wasn’t clear, can you tell me in detail what happened to Luo Haofeng, how did he get injured?”

Wen Ran sighed lightly.

Reaching out to hold Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand, she signaled for her to sit on the bench a few steps away to talk.

The two walked to the bench. After Wen Ran seated Bai Xiaoxiao, she simply explained, “A couple of days ago, the higher-ups at Luo Haofeng’s company organized a trip. I heard that while climbing a mountain, a female employee got bitten by a snake, got overly frightened, and nearly fell from halfway up the mountain…”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart was in her throat, her eyes fixed on Wen Ran.

Afraid of missing a single word she said.

“Apparently, Luo Haofeng was right by the female employee’s side at that time. He reached out to grab her but ended up rolling down with her. Unluckily, a rain shower trapped them on the mountain, and the others couldn’t find them, so they called the police…”

Wen Ran was recounting what she knew; in truth, she didn’t know the specific details.

But Bai Xiaoxiao wanted the details, so she told her everything she knew.

“Is that female employee Qiao Siyi?”

After hearing Wen Ran’s account, Bai Xiaoxiao asked.

A trace of uncertainty flashed in Wen Ran’s eyes; she instinctively shook her head, “I don’t know. Mo Xiuchen received the call and only briefly explained the situation. Could it be that the person injured with him is Qiao Siyi?”

No wonder Xiao Yuting called her.

Xiao Yuting liked Qiao Siyi, and since Qiao Siyi got injured, he would certainly want to see her.

Wen Ran recalled something Mo Xiuchen mentioned a couple of nights ago—Qiao Siyi had rejected Xiao Yuting because the person she liked was Luo Haofeng.

She suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Bai Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes to her abdomen, and her voice was soft, “Just now Xiao Yuting said that Qiao Siyi got injured.”

A hint of realization appeared on Wen Ran’s face, “Then it might be her.”

“Xiaoxiao, if you’re really worried, I’ll go with you to City B to see Luo Haofeng.”

Wen Ran looked at her pale face with concern.

Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu were still on the plane at that moment. Since Xiaoxiao knew about Luo Haofeng’s injury, she could only try to ease her worries.

“Ranran, since he’s not in life-threatening danger, I won’t go.”

A trace of sorrow crossed Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes, and she lightly bit her lip, speaking softly.

Wen Ran looked at her in surprise, “Weren’t you very worried? Why don’t you call and ask about his situation, talk to him.”

“No need, let him recover in peace.”

The moment Bai Xiaoxiao learned of Luo Haofeng’s injury, she was planning to immediately appear before him to check on his condition.

But when she thought of Qiao Siyi, any thoughts of seeing Luo Haofeng dissipated.
