Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict-Chapter 451 - : 450 clear on both sides
Chapter 451: 450 clear on both sides
“Let’s not stress Uncle Gu out too much. Wen Ran lived under Fu Jingyi for six years, and despite the attempted assassination against her, she grew up just fine. This shows that heaven still took pity on her.”

Qin Mu spoke softly, attempting to soothe.
Luo Haofeng also agreed, continuing his train of thought, “Yes, this is what I think too. Haven’t there been many illnesses that medicine hasn’t been able to cure, yet the patients healed themselves? Wen Ran is not aware of her condition and has no concerns in that regard. Her relationship with Mo Xiuchen is strong. Perhaps, without any treatment, she might just heal herself one day.”
“Hopefully.” Gu Kai hoped for a miracle more than anyone else.
As a doctor himself, he knew that there were indeed many diseases that medicine could not cure, yet patients miraculously recovered.
For instance, some vegetative state patients would wake up due to their relatives’ strong affection, some terminal patients could live healthily for many more years.
If love indeed held such power, then he hoped that Mo Xiuchen would use his own love to cure Ranran and allow her to stay with him in health till they were old.
He picked up his glass and poured himself a drink. His dark eyes rested on Luo Haofeng as he changed the subject, “Bai Xiaoxiao begins her rehabilitation tomorrow. Just now in a phone call, Ranran has asked me to take good care of her. Ah Feng, if you have time, please visit the hospital more frequently.”
Luo Haofeng’s handsome face tightened slightly. He pressed his lips together and finally spoke with a hint of self-mockery and stiffness, “Right now, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother absolutely detests me. Wouldn’t my appearance just trigger her anger?”
Gu Kai frowned, “Even if Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother is upset with you, she wouldn’t show it. After all, you’re still in charge of the cooperation between MS Group and Bai.”
“She doesn’t give me a hard time? I think Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother sees me as an enemy. I don’t even know how I offended her. Tell me, what’s not to like about an elegant, charming and handsome man like me?”
“But, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother seems to be the exception.”
Luo Haofeng looked miserable, sincerely befuddled at what he could have done to offend Mother Bai to displease her so.
If it were any other woman, wouldn’t she be thanking her lucky stars if a man as handsome and charming as he treated her daughter well? Instead of being like Mother Bai, not only unhappy but also trying to arrange a blind date for her daughter.
“Perhaps, you may have unknowingly offended Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother.”
Gu Kai suggested thoughtfully.
Qin Mu raised a corner of his mouth into a smile, speaking lightly, “Ah Feng, because of your extreme good looks and charms, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother must be feeling insecure, fearing that Bai Xiaoxiao might get hurt by you. Hasn’t she been hurt by Xiao Yuting, who only had good looks before?”
Luo Haofeng looked at Qin Mu and touched his handsome face, “Does that mean I should disfigure my face?”
Suppressing a chuckle, Gu Kai advised, “There’s no need to disfigure your face. Once you figure out the cause and apply the right solution, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother will naturally accept you.”

Cheng Jia called two former colleagues in the PR department who had been close to her. She wanted to find out where Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran were but ended up with no leads.
In the end, her mind strayed to Jiang Liu, who had been ignoring her calls these recent days. Besides him, no one else could help her.
Calling Jiang Liu again and again, he initially did not pick up and later changed his number. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Cheng Jia, being overseas, couldn’t fly back on her own. When Jiang Liu kept ignoring her calls, she used other means to contact him. Finally, two days later, Jiang Liu returned her call.
Upon hearing his voice, Cheng Jia softened her tone, not daring to get angry, “Jiang Liu, why did you keep turning your phone off when I was trying to call you? What have you been busy with?”
Jiang Liu sat on the living room couch with a notebook on the coffee table in front of him. The screen saver was a photo of Shen Yuting.
“I got a job. I’ve just started for a few days. It’s been quite busy.”
Jiang Liu’s deep voice was tinged with indifference. Cheng Jia didn’t know whether it was due to the long distance or her own illusion, but she felt that Jiang Liu seemed different.
“Jiang Liu, why did you start working? Is the money I gave you not enough?”
After working for Xiao Wenqing for so many years, Cheng Jia had amassed quite a considerable amount. She could afford to keep a man.
More importantly, her current investment was for future gains.
“Cheng Jia, I don’t like being kept by a woman. Previously, you were the one who disliked my lifestyle and insisted on giving me money. Now that we’ve split, I don’t want to spend your money anymore.”
Jiang Liu’s gaze rested on the photograph on the screen. These days, he felt that being taken care of by Cheng Jia was less enjoyable than being with Shen Yuting.
Cheng Jia obviously had an ulterior motive, intending to use him.
Shen Yuting was different; she was sincerely trying to start a relationship with him. Both were women who liked Mo Xiuchen, but Cheng Jia wanted to use him to get close to Mo Xiuchen again.
He was not a fool. Given a choice, he would definitely choose Shen Yuting.
“Jiang Liu, it’s only three months that I am overseas. How can you say such a thing? Do you have another woman?”
“Yes, I have another woman.”
Jiang Liu’s answer was straightforward.
“What kind of woman is worth you giving up this lifestyle for? Jiang Liu, you promised to help me before. You can’t go back on your word.”
Jiang Liu sneered, “You’ve been calling me constantly these days; you must need my help with something, right? Just say what it is. If I can do it, I’ll help you out this one time. After that, please don’t call me anymore. I won’t contact you either.”
“Alright, as long as you help me this time, we’ll call it quits.”
Cheng Jia gritted her teeth. As she was across the Pacific Ocean from him, she couldn’t seduce Jiang Liu, nor threaten him.
“What is it?”
Jiang Liu shifted his body to a more comfortable position to lean against.
“Help me find out where Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen are.”
“Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen? Cheng Jia, you’re overseas. Even if you know where they are, what can you do?”
Jiang Liu asked mockingly.
Cheng Jia was daydreaming. She would stop at nothing to get Mo Xiuchen, but even so, it would be impossible for her to get Mo Xiuchen.
Ever since he was with Cheng Jia, he had looked into all of Mo Xiuchen’s background.
In recent days, newspapers have reported some unknown secrets about Mo Xiuchen’s past. Although not all of it was true, it still commanded from him respect towards Mo Xiuchen from the bottom of his heart.
How could such a man, who had grown up in such harsh circumstances, be bewitched by a woman like Cheng Jia?
No matter what means she employed, Mo Xiuchen would never give Cheng Jia a second look.
