Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict-Chapter 502 - : Just as long as it’s not him
Chapter 502: Just as long as it’s not him
“Brother, you’re lying. If I wasn’t your sister, you’d definitely agree. You’re refusing because the scale in your heart tilts towards me. You’re not worried that Mo Xiuchen can’t live without me but afraid that if I left Mo Xiuchen, I would be unhappy.”
“Ranran, do you think that I’m the kind of person who only thinks about their sister and not their friends?”
Gu Kai looked at Wen Ran unhappily. Even if he thought that way in his heart, he would never admit it in front of her.
Wen Ran kept silent for a while before explaining, “You’re not disregarding Mo Xiuchen’s feelings, it’s because it’s me who is sick now. Brother, I know you care about me. I can promise you to get proper treatment, as long as you help me persuade Mo Xiuchen to stop being so stubborn. Is that okay?”
Gu Kai squinted his eyes, his gaze probing Wen Ran, he was really confused.
“Ranran, why can’t you accept Mo Xiuchen if you can calmly accept the fact that you are sick in such a short time? Having him with you can make your illness recover faster. The power of love is sometimes more therapeutic than medicine.”
Gu Kai grew up in a medical family, having seen countless cases since his childhood. Their mother was a perfect example.
Even though his father was an excellent doctor and owned a large hospital, he still couldn’t hold on to the woman he loved, despite her illness not being terminal.
On the contrary, many patients diagnosed with terminal illnesses that even the doctors had given up on eventually recovered on their own.
He had been hoping from the beginning for Ranran to be in the latter category, hoping that under the nourishment of love and the companionship of Mo Xiuchen, her illness would spontaneously heal.
Wen Ran understood what he meant, but she couldn’t do that, “Brother, not everyone can do that. If Mo Xiuchen is by my side, I would feel stressed. Even if I take my medication, it won’t work.”
“…”
Gu Kai frowned, feeling somewhat helpless.
Wen Ran picked up her cup, took a sip of water, and calmly said, “I’ve thought it through. After divorcing him, I want to travel alone. Maybe I’ll get better once I feel better.” freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
“How can you go traveling alone?”
Gu Kai objected again; Wen Ran laughed, “If you think it’s unsafe for me to go alone, then find someone to go with me. Anyone will do as long as it’s not Mo Xiuchen.”
“Ranran, I never knew before how stubborn you are.”
Gu Kai stood up, took the cup from her hand and pulled her up from the couch, “Come, let’s get a check-up first. Once we have the results, I’ll consider whether I’ll agree to your request.”
He refused to believe that after having taken the medication for this long, there’s no effect at all.
As long as there were results, he would be able to convince her to change her mind about divorcing Mo Xiuchen.

The police station
When Xiao Wenqing came out, Mo Zixuan was already waiting in the small room, with the lunch he had brought placed on the table, enough for two.
“Mom, I brought your favorite hairy crabs and steamed fish.”
The air was filled with the rich aroma of food. Xiao Wenqing swallowed hard while her eyes lit up. Since being locked up, she hadn’t eaten such delicious food, let alone had enough to eat.
The woman who was confined with her was ferocious. Even the slightest mistake would lead to beatings. Unfortunately, the guards did not care. She could only endure the beatings through gritted teeth.
Limping towards the table, she glanced at the food before raising her head to look at Mo Zixuan. “I’ve said it before, I won’t tell you anything about Wu Tianyi. Zixuan, if that is your goal, then take these things and leave.”
Mo Zixuan chuckled softly and said warmly, “Mom, today I just wanted to have lunch with you. Have you forgotten what day it is?”
Xiao Wenqing paused, “What day is it?”
Being locked inside, she felt like she was going mad and had no sense of the passing days.
Mo Zixuan ceased his laughter, his eyebrows furrowing slightly, pity evident in his gaze trained on Xiao Wenqing. The scratch mark on her left cheek hadn’t healed yet, and there was a new bruise on her right forehead. “Mom, what happened to your face? Did one of the interrogating police officers hit you?”
“No, it was the woman locked up with me.”
Xiao Wenqing seethed with anger at the mention of this woman. If she could, she really wanted to kill her. Unfortunately, she couldn’t beat her, much less kill her.
“Mom, today is your birthday. Have you forgotten? On your birthday last year, my dad and I were with you. This food was prepared by the kitchen as per my dad’s instructions. He said you probably wouldn’t want to see him, so he asked me to accompany you on your birthday alone.”
Mo Zixuan changed the topic again. A hint of sadness seeped through his deep voice. Xiao Wenqing heard this, and a ripple of emotion spread through her heart.
“Your dad must hate me like anything. How could he remember my birthday? I bet this food is poisoned, isn’t it?”
“Mom, my dad does hate you, but he hates you because you betrayed him and made him a cuckold for decades. In fact, he still loves you. Otherwise, why would he bother to hate?”
Mo Zixuan furrowed his brows disapprovingly. Even though it was all a fabrication, he spoke as if it were all true.
Xiao Wenqing was stung by his reproachful words. She sneered, “You only know that I made him a cuckold. You have no idea that the person I liked from the beginning wasn’t your dad. Your dad forced me into being with him.”
“Mom, if the person you liked isn’t my dad, then is it Wu Tianyi? Today’s your birthday, at least my dad remembered and arranged for me to accompany you. But what about Wu Tianyi? Who knows where he’s hiding and having fun with other women, not remembering you at all!”
Mo Zixuan’s words hit Xiao Wenqing right in the heart. Having been in here for so many days, she dared not be sure whether Wu Tianyi would remember her. After all, during the few months they had been in hiding, Wu Tianyi wasn’t as gentle and considerate as he used to be. He would blame her and resent her for the smallest things.
“Mom, I initially didn’t want to tell you this, but now that you’re still defending Wu Tianyi till this point, I have no choice. Wu Tianyi contacted Tong Shishi again. Tong Shishi took the opportunity to ask him if he was going to help you. He said he wouldn’t risk his safety for you.”
Xiao Wenqing’s face slightly changed.
Even though she knew Wu Tianyi couldn’t save herself and her trial was just around the corner, meaning there was no hope for her to get out, when she heard these words, she felt a bit of disappointment.
That man was someone she loved, someone she thought loved her the same.
For him, she had even betrayed her own husband and son, funneling Mo Jingteng’s hard-earned money to him through various means…
“He also said that he broke up with you so that he wouldn’t get implicated by you anymore because he knew the police would arrest you sooner or later.”
