After the physical examination, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran returned to the company in the afternoon, still working.
In the evening, Mo Xiuchen had a social engagement. Wen Ran didn’t go with him but went to the hospital to see Bai Xiaoxiao.
Mo Xiuchen had just finished his meal when Gu Kai called.
Seeing Gu Kai’s incoming call, he felt inexplicably nervous. He stared at his phone screen for two seconds before he pressed the answer key, “Ah Kai, are the test results out yet?”
“Mo Xiuchen, based on your suggestion this morning, should I tell Ranran about it, or should you tell her yourself?”
Over the phone, Mo Xiuchen couldn’t see Gu Kai’s expression, yet he could feel the seriousness in his voice. His hand, holding his mobile phone, suddenly tensed up.
Even though he knew from the very beginning that the result wouldn’t be promising, the heavy truth sank into his heart as he heard it directly from Gu Kai.
The image of Wen Ran’s bright and charming smile came into his mind, followed by her words ‘we should have a baby’, resonating in his ear. His thin lips unconsciously tightened, and the tall and straight figure stood in the parking lot. He was so engrossed he didn’t feel the sharp and cold wind blowing on his face.
There was a moment of silence on the phone.
After Gu Kai spoke those words, he didn’t say anything more and was waiting for Mo Xiuchen’s response.
The person next to Mo Xiuchen was Luo Haofeng, who watched him stand there, abruptly frozen. Luo Haofeng’s face changed slightly, he opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
It was a long moment before Mo Xiuchen finally spoke in a low, hoarse voice, “I will tell her.”
“Good!”
The tone of Gu Kai’s reply was no less relaxed than Mo Xiuchen’s. The situation with Ranran was worse than they had imagined. Even if they exhausted every method, they might not be able to cure her.
Moreover, there was one thing he dared not to tell Mo Xiuchen.
Mo Xiuchen was not a fragile man. From childhood to adulthood, he had been harmed by Xiao Wenqing countless times. He was a man who did not even fear death, but Gu Kai knew that when it came to matters related to Ranran, he would fear.
As his brother, he couldn’t bear to see him suffering.
So he chose to hide it for now, which was also the wish of his father, Gu Yan. They hoped their efforts could change something.
“Mo Xiuchen!”
After ending the call, Mo Xiuchen remained still.
His facial expression was indiscernible in the dim light, his eyes filled with numerous swirling emotions.
Next to him, Luo Haofeng waited a while before calling him softly.
Mo Xiuchen snapped back to reality, as if he was trying hard to suppress the emotions roiling in his heart. After a while, he slowly turned to Luo Haofeng, “Ah Feng, you go ahead. I will go to the hospital to get Ranran.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Luo Haofeng wasn’t confident about Mo Xiuchen’s state. How could he focus on driving?
Mo Xiuchen forced a smile, “No need. You won’t see Bai Xiaoxiao if you go to the hospital, you better go back. I can drive myself.”
Luo Haofeng frowned, “So what if I see Bai Xiaoxiao? You make it sound like I’m afraid of her. Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital, and you can have Ah Kai pick me up later.”
After saying this, he snatched the car keys from Mo Xiuchen’s hand, walked to the front of the car, and thoughtfully opened the door for him, “Get in the car. You need to stabilize your emotions during the journey, think about how to talk to Wen Ran later.”
“Why should I stabilize my emotions? The one who is ill is me, not Ranran.”
Mo Xiuchen had already calmed down. He needed some emotion, some sadness, no need to hide it. That way, Ranran would believe it more.
A flicker of surprise flashed through Luo Haofeng’s eyes, and then he understood, “You’re right. You don’t need to worry too much. Ah Kai’s family is a century-old medical family. Uncle Gu definitely can figure out a way.”
If it were him, he didn’t care if he had a child or not. He could just adopt one.
He knew that it didn’t matter to Mo Xiuchen whether they had a baby or not, what mattered to him was only Wen Ran.
But as Mo Xiuchen was the heir of G City’s top wealthy Mo family, he really should consider continuing the family line. If his grandfather found out that Wen Ran couldn’t bear a child, he would definitely do everything to break them apart.
Even though it was widely known that Mo Xiuchen was impotent, Luo Haofeng was willing to bet that Mo Jingteng would have completely different attitudes towards these two issues.
Mo Xiuchen got in the car, fastened his seat belt, and casually said, “Yes, there will be a way.”
Back then, he was really hurt, but later, didn’t he recover also?
Ranran will definitely be all right.
Heaven wouldn’t be so cruel to treat her like this. If he could exchange it, he was willing to trade all he had for Ranran’s health.
Meanwhile, in Bai Xiaoxiao’s hospital room.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at her mother with a headache as she flipped through the pictures, explaining who the people in the pictures were, their backgrounds, jobs, and character.
Wen Ran, sitting aside, wore a smile, chiming in from time to time.
“Ranran, which one do you think is good?”
Mother Bai had somehow managed to find many talented young men. All of them came from good families, had good jobs, and were good-looking. At least, they looked good in the photos.
The column for personal introductions was also well written.
“Aunt Qiao, it’s impossible to know who’s good based solely on photos. Some people are photogenic while others aren’t. I think it’s better to meet in person. What do you think, Xiaoxiao?”
Wen Ran’s response elicited a glare from Bai Xiaoxiao, “None of them are good. I feel that they are all defective goods. Ranran, you help me screen them. I only want an excellent, devoted, and considerate man like Mo Xiuchen.”
If her mother wanted to turn her sickroom into a matchmaking venue, she would definitely fight back.
Mother Bai stared at the photos in puzzlement. These men all looked good, were well-bred, and came from good families. How could they be defective goods?
However, when comparing them with Mo Xiuchen, they indeed were not on the same level.
“Ranran, why don’t you help Xiaoxiao screen a few for her? Ask Mo General to help. He definitely knows more people, and those who are acquainted with him should all be quite decent.”
Wen Ran chuckled and playfully glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao, replying, “Alright, as long as there’s someone suitable for Xiaoxiao, I will definitely introduce him to Xiaoxiao.”
As for finding a man as excellent as her own Mo Xiuchen, she really couldn’t come up with a few.
Just as her words died away, there was a knock on the door outside the sickroom. Soon after, the door was pushed open, and the tall figure of Gu Kai appeared at the doorway.
“Older Brother Gu, have you finished work?”
Upon seeing Gu Kai, Wen Ran immediately stood up. He had changed out of his white coat and was now dressed in his own clothes, looking handsome and attractive. Noticing her standing, he greeted her with a smile as he walked into the sickroom, “Yes, I just finished work.”
After exchanging greetings with Mother Bai, he turned to Wen Ran and said softly, “Do you want to go home now? I can give you a ride.”
From the side, Mother Bai looked at Gu Kai, sighing inwardly. Such a handsome and beautiful man was really a pity…a pity…
