Chapter 817: 816 Are you friends with my Ranran?
At Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, when Luo Haofeng arrived, Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen had just arrived as well; Wen Jin couldn’t make it due to a lunch meeting.
The three of them went upstairs together. Luo Haofeng asked Mo Xiuchen, “Mo Xiuchen, didn’t you invite Ranran along?”
Mo Xiuchen, walking ahead of him, heard his question, turned his head to look at him and said indifferently, “No, and didn’t you also not invite Qi Meiling?”
Luo Haofeng was taken aback, and after a moment, a smile appeared on his face as he explained, “Mo Xiuchen, I asked Qi Meiling last night. She said that she was the victim, that Ranran had spilled her drink on her.”
“You believe her?”
Mo Xiuchen’s expression darkened, his deep eyes narrowing sharply as he stopped walking and looked displeasedly at Luo Haofeng.
...
“No, Mo Xiuchen, I’m not saying I believe Qi Meiling. What I mean is, Ranran didn’t lose out, right? Don’t be mad at me, I’m a victim too. I have nothing whatsoever to do with that Qi Meiling.”
Mo Xiuchen snorted coldly. “Either way, it was a woman you attracted.”
Gu Kai glanced at Luo Haofeng but said nothing.
In this matter, he naturally stood with Mo Xiuchen, irrationally defending his side.
Luo Haofeng found himself at a loss for words, only able to accept it and said grudgingly, “Alright, it’s my fault. Though I didn’t attract Qi Meiling—she approached me on her own accord—still, Wen Ran ended up spilling her drink on her because of me and made you, President Mo, in a bad mood.”

Gu Kai couldn’t help but laugh. “Ah Feng, what kind of apology is that? Ranran wouldn’t just randomly spill a drink on Qi Meiling for no reason. Qi must have provoked Ranran. I remember Qi Meiling is quite skilled in karate. Thankfully, she didn’t hurt Ranran. If she had, it’s not just Mo Xiuchen; I wouldn’t let her off either.”
By the end of his words, Gu Kai’s smile faded, and a layer of coldness settled between his brows.
“She knows karate?” Hearing this, Mo Xiuchen’s gaze at Luo Haofeng turned even colder. As they had been chatting while going upstairs, they hadn’t initially noticed the upstairs hall, but then Luo Haofeng glanced inside inadvertently and immediately exclaimed joyfully, “Isn’t that Ranran?”
He was trying to divert the topic, so Mo Xiuchen wouldn’t dwell on the matter with Qi Meiling.
Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai turned their heads following his gaze and indeed, they saw Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao sitting by a window, accompanied by a strange man.
What they saw, however, were the backs of Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao.
They could clearly see the man, and Mo Xiuchen’s eyes immediately darkened. He looked at Luo Haofeng and strode over.
The man turned out to be witty and knowledgeable, making Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao laugh with a story about a foreign couple handled by his travel agency. His average face wore a confident smile, which made his expression much livelier.
Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao had initially planned to sit for just two minutes before leaving, but the man was generous and articulate, so they didn’t leave immediately.
As they were enjoying the conversation, suddenly a voice from behind startled Wen Ran, causing her hand holding the cup to tremble nearly spilling the water inside.
The voice calling “Ranran” not only startled Wen Ran but also Bai Xiaoxiao, who quickly turned around to see Mo Xiuchen, who had unknowingly arrived beside Wen Ran, her eyes wide with shock.
The surprise was due not only to Mo Xiuchen but also because Luo Haofeng had followed him there.
Gu Kai, walking last, was a few steps behind, leisurely making his way over, a pleasing curve on his lips as he watched the scene unfold.
The surprise in Wen Ran’s eyes quickly faded, and a faint smile appeared on her beautiful cheeks. “Mo Xiuchen, what brings you here too?”
It seems this really is a good place.
She remembered, last year she was here accompanying Xiaoxiao on a blind date at the Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, where they had also encountered Mo Xiuchen. Fortunately, this time, he was not as angry as before.
However, his expression was not particularly good, especially when he glanced at the man sitting opposite them, his eyes sharp and cold, much like Sun Wukong’s fiery golden eyes when spotting a demon, seeming to see right through the other’s nefarious nature.
“Ranran, who is this?”
Who says only women have accurate intuition?
The man standing in front of Wen Ran had intuition so accurate it was frightening; with just one look, he was certain that the man sitting opposite had ‘nefarious intentions’.
“He…”
Wen Ran opened her mouth, noticing that not only Mo Xiuchen was watching her, but Luo Haofeng was also squinting his romantic eyes, staring intently at her, waiting for her to make an introduction.
“President Mo, hello, my name is Meng Ke!”
It was Meng Ke who took the initiative to stand up and extend his hand towards Mo Xiuchen. Mingling in G City, how could he not recognize Mo Xiuchen, and not only did he know Mo Xiuchen, he also knew Wen Ran and had heard of Bai Xiaoxiao.
Mo Xiuchen eyed Meng Ke’s extended hand, his eyes slightly squinted, and opted not to extend his own hand, but instead asked indifferently, “Mr. Meng, are you a friend of my Ranran?”
The words ‘my Ranran’ made Gu Kai, standing behind, twitch the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself, this guy has started being jealous again!
Meng Ke did not expect Mo Xiuchen to snub him. Not only did he not shake hands, but he also questioned him in such an accusatory tone. He didn’t dare to offend Mo Xiuchen because his next step was to secure a deal with the MS Group, a major client that could ensure their travel agency’s annual bonus was not in jeopardy.
With a forced smile, he explained, “President Mo, I just met Mrs. Mo… I didn’t know before that she and Miss Bai were good friends. President Mo, please join us for dinner…”
Mo Xiuchen’s lips curved slightly; although it formed a smile, he was still quite satisfied that he was referred to as Mrs. Mo instead of Miss Wen.
“No need, Ranran, since you and Mr. Meng are not familiar, why don’t you join us instead.”
Earlier, Mo Xiuchen had not ignored Bai Xiaoxiao, apart from Wen Ran. Seeing the flash of something unusual in her eyes, the corner’s glance at Luo Haofeng’s changing face several times, and when Meng Ke was explaining, he even sneaked a look at Bai Xiaoxiao twice.
He seemed to understand something, decided to take Wen Ran with him, and chose not to interfere in the matters between Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao, and this Meng Ke.
Without waiting for Wen Ran to speak, he reached out and caught her hand, gently pulling her. Caught off guard, Wen Ran nearly stumbled into his arms, her brow furrowed, and she had no choice but to follow him as they left.
“Xiaoxiao, why didn’t you wait for me to finish this morning before hanging up the phone?”
Luo Haofeng suddenly spoke up, causing Bai Xiaoxiao’s face to change abruptly. His romantic eyes tightly locked onto Bai Xiaoxiao, and opposite them, Meng Ke
was no fool, clearly sensing the strange atmosphere between them.
Bai Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, her tone slightly stiff, “Is that so? I thought you were done, so I hung up.”
