Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2111: Chapter 2110: Will One Dollar Do?

After a brief silence and quiet eye contact, Jing Xiaocha nodded gently.

Wen Jin’s smile returned to his face as she released her hand, "Let Little Hui stay at Ranran’s house these days. Qing Feng will take them to and from school, so you don’t need to worry."

"Okay."

Jing Xiaocha responded softly, unsure of what to say in the face of their kindness.

Saying ’thank you’ wasn’t enough to express her gratitude.

"Lawyers will handle Zheng Shirui’s situation, so you don’t need to worry about that either."

"Okay."

"Remember what I said earlier, don’t move your arm until it’s healed, especially during the first few days."

Jing Xiaocha wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Wen Jin was different tonight than usual.

But she couldn’t pinpoint exactly how he was different. Was it his gaze, his tone, or his level of patience...

It seemed like everything had changed.

But it also seemed like nothing had changed, just like usual.

In Gu Kai’s office, Wen Ran pushed the door open and entered. Mo Xiuchen immediately stood up from the sofa, wearing a gentle smile, "Ranran, we should go home."

"Is Ah Jin in Ou Yihan’s ward or Jing Xiaocha’s ward?"

Gu Kai asked curiously, with a look of gossip written all over his handsome face.

Mo Xiuchen just smiled without responding.

Wen Ran blinked, "When I left earlier, my brother was in Xiaocha’s ward. He said that Yihan’s mom would stay at the hospital tonight, so he didn’t need to stay with Yihan."

"Ranran, do you think Ah Jin likes Yihan more, or does he like Xiaocha more?"

Gu Kai’s smile deepened as he looked intently at Wen Ran.

"How should I know."

Wen Ran shook her head; she was just as confused.

Whether her brother’s concern for Xiaocha was a habitual care or if he unknowingly truly started liking her.

"Xiuchen, what do you think? How about we make a bet?"

Gu Kai was bursting with curiosity, eager for an answer.

Especially after listening to Mo Xiuchen recount the scene when they went to save Jing Xiaocha, Gu Kai complained that they didn’t invite him to join.

Mo Xiuchen pulled Wen Ran into his arms, his long fingers gently brushing her hair behind her ear, with gentle and practiced motions, "I’ll bet on Xiaocha. The usual rule; when the time comes, you just give a wedding gift."

Gu Kai widened his eyes, "Can it be one dollar?"

"Pfft—"

Wen Ran couldn’t hold back her laughter, glancing at Gu Kai.

Mo Xiuchen asked slowly, "When you and Yiyi got married, did we only give you a dollar as a wedding gift?"

Gu Kai’s mouth twitched; lately, he seemed to be unlucky, losing every bet he made with anyone.

But this time, he foolishly wanted to make a bet with him.

"Then why do you think Ah Jin would choose Xiaocha, especially when Yihan is his girlfriend and got hurt for him? Ah Jin should be promising her the world."

Gu Kai felt if he was going to make a claim, he had to understand the reason, learn from it, and avoid losing again next time.

Wen Ran also looked up curiously at Mo Xiuchen, who seemed quite certain.

Mo Xiuchen kept his gaze on Wen Ran, gently answering, "Ah Jin has always been worried about Xiaocha. When we entered that building, he was incredibly anxious seeing Xiaocha injured. Especially when Xiaocha fainted... Although Ou Yihan also got hurt because of him, he was concerned about her, yet he didn’t let go of Xiaocha in his arms."

"You mean, if it were you, you’d definitely throw away the person in your arms..."

"Ranran, let’s go."

Before Gu Kai could finish, Mo Xiuchen interrupted him.

Wen Ran nodded with a smile and asked Gu Kai, "Brother, do you want to come with us?"

Gu Kai shook his head without thinking, "I won’t be your third wheel, saving myself from Xiuchen’s killer gaze. I’ll go see if Ah Jin needs any help."

"Ranran, he’s already lost the wedding gift. If you don’t let him look clearly, he won’t sleep well tonight."

"No way my brother is that petty?"

Wen Ran joked, giving him a playful glance.

"Ah Jin is your brother. When we got married, he gave us a big gift. When Ah Kai got married, he also gave a considerable gift. When he gets married, the gifts from both our families combined definitely would make him ache for several nights."

Gu Kai scoffed, countering, "I’m helping Ranran with the gift. No matter how much it is, I won’t be stingy, unlike you."

Mo Xiuchen raised his eyebrows, smiling warmly at Gu Kai, "Really? We’ve been married for several years now; when he gets married, you’ll have to double it, so just give him a billion."

"..."

Do you think I run a bank printing money?

Mo Xiuchen smiled innocently, pulling Wen Ran out of the office.

"Xiuchen, do you really think my brother will choose Xiaocha? But he said he’d take care of Yihan."

Mo Xiuchen smiled gently, "Ou Yihan was injured because of Ah Jin, and due to Xiaocha’s involvement, she got kidnapped. If Ah Jin doesn’t take care of her when she’s hurt, he wouldn’t be Ah Jin."

"So you mean..."

"Don’t worry, we outsiders can see clearly. Ou Yihan and Ah Jin, the two involved, definitely feel it more acutely than we do."

"But Yihan also really likes my brother."

Mo Xiuchen tenderly ruffled her hair, "Let them worry about their own matters. If not for Ou Yihan, who knows when Ah Jin would realize his true feelings."

"Why not let me stay tonight to take care of Xiaocha? Regardless of who my brother truly likes, he promised to take care of Yihan, and since Yihan is still his girlfriend, it’s not right for him to care too much for Xiaocha."

"No way."

Mo Xiuchen refused without hesitation, causing Wen Ran to pout unhappily.

"There are plenty of nurses in the hospital; there’s no need for you to stay and take care of her."

Mo Xiuchen was firm in his refusal.

"Just for one night; didn’t you say earlier? My brother likes Xiaocha, so in the future, Xiaocha will be my sister-in-law."

Wen Ran tried to persuade Mo Xiuchen.

"Let’s talk about it when she actually becomes your sister-in-law."

Mo Xiuchen was unyielding, "Let Ah Jin handle his own affairs. Before he clarifies things with Ou Yihan, he won’t involve Jing Xiaocha. You can rest assured about that."

Wen Ran grumbled under her breath; she wasn’t worried about that, she just wanted to share her brother’s burden.

Stepping out of the hospital, the chilly night wind hit.

Mo Xiuchen wrapped Wen Ran in his arms, using his coat to shield her from the cold, as he led her towards the parking lot, softening his voice, "Ranran, you’re focused on sharing Ah Jin’s burden, but don’t you think about my feelings?"

"..."

It’s just one night, what feelings?

"If you really want to stay at the hospital, then I’ll stay with you."

Wen Ran glared at him, "I’m staying with Xiaocha; how will you stay with me?"

"Because I can’t stay with you, you can’t stay at the hospital. All right, don’t be mad. Tomorrow morning, I’ll come with you first thing, okay?"

Mo Xiuchen smiled, planting a kiss on her cheek.
