Chapter 1608: Do you want to go with you?
A few minutes later.
Mo Xiuchen brought a glass of milk for Wen Ran to drink before getting into bed and pulling her into his arms.
“Ranran, I have sothing to tell you.”
Mo Xiuchen gently stroked Wen Ran’s soft hair with his long fingers, gazing at her tenderly.
Wen Ran raised an eyebrow slightly, a smile appearing on her face, “What’s the matter?”
“Tonight, Shiju asked if our company’s administrative departnt is hiring. He said that his niece just returned from abroad and is currently looking for a job.”
Mo Xiuchen’s tone was calm, making it unclear whether he had agreed or was just ntioning it casually.
“Did you agree?”
“I just told her to co for an interview next Monday. I didn’t promise him anything.”
Mo Xiuchen smiled slightly, and Wen Ran glared at him, “Since you’re telling about this, you must have already decided to keep his niece, right?”
“Ranran, if you disagree, we won’t hire her.”
Having had a secretary who made Wen Ran uncomfortable before, Mo Xiuchen learned his lesson and wouldn’t easily hire soone just because of connections.
“We can’t completely ignore Shiju, as long as she doesn’t have her eyes on my husband, I have no objection.”
At the end, a playful glint flashed in Wen Ran’s clear eyes, enchanting and charming.
The smile on Mo Xiuchen’s lips deepened, seemingly enjoying Wen Ran’s jealousy, “Ranran, you can rest assured, even if every man in the world changes, I will only love you.”
Wen Ran chuckled, “Then you’re the one and only good man in the world.”
“Thank you, Ranran, for the complint.”
Mo Xiuchen laughed heartily, earning a coy glance from Wen Ran, “I have sothing to tell you too.”
“Oh?”
Mo Xiuchen stopped laughing and looked at her tenderly with his deep eyes.
Wen Ran pursed her lips and said softly, “When I picked up Momo and the others from school this afternoon, I got a call from Xiaoxiao. She’ll be in G City tomorrow morning.”
“Xiaoxiao is coming back tomorrow?”
A trace of surprise flashed in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes; he really hadn’t expected Bai Xiaoxiao to say she was coming back and then actually do it.
Prior to this, Wen Ran hadn’t ntioned it.
“You’re surprised too, right? She called just before boarding the plane, asking to bring Momo, Xin Xin, and Ziyi to pick her up tomorrow.”
Wen Ran was very pleased with Mo Xiuchen’s surprised expression.
“Do you want to go with you?”
The hand Mo Xiuchen had around her shoulder tightened slightly, and his deep voice with a hint of laughter and doting sounded in her ear.
“If you’re busy, you don’t have to make special ti, but if you’re not, you can co with us.”
Wen Ran thought for a mont and didn’t insist.
Mo Xiuchen laughed heartily, “What could be more important than spending ti with you and the three little darlings? I’ve canceled all my engagents this weekend. I was planning to spend so good quality ti with you these days.”
Wen Ran knew it was because of her period.
“But now it seems that plan is foiled. Now that Bai Xiaoxiao is back, there’ll be soone else to compete with for my wife.”
Originally, those around him no longer competed with him for Ranran, except for a few little ones who didn’t understand.
Mo Xiuchen was very satisfied with the current state; he and Ranran went to work and ca ho together, and occasionally enjoyed so couple ti on weekends.
But with Bai Xiaoxiao’s return, Ranran might not be able to accompany him as often.
Perhaps having been through too many storms before, Mo Xiuchen cherished every mont with Ranran, believing that life is short, and in a blink of an eye, one grows old.
He didn’t want to pin hopes on a next life; he just wanted to cherish this lifeti with Ranran, not wasting a single mont.
“She won’t, Xiaoxiao won’t have ti to be idle after returning. My guess is Uncle Bai will retire, and she’ll be busy managing the Bai Family’s company.”
Wen Ran nestled into Mo Xiuchen’s arms, against his warm, firm chest, listening to the steady thumping of his heart.
Mo Xiuchen lowered his head and kissed her forehead with his thin lips, “You said it, Ranran, don’t neglect just because Bai Xiaoxiao is back.”
“If I accompany Xiaoxiao, wouldn’t I also be neglecting the three little darlings? It’s not just about you.”
Wen Ran looked up, smiling at Mo Xiuchen’s jealous face.
Mo Xiuchen grabbed her small hand, placing it on his face, “Bai Xiaoxiao already said to bring the three little darlings to pick her up. She adores her godchildren and could never let you neglect them.”
“Haha, you’re right. So what should we do?”
Wen Ran playfully blinked, “How about I get her a return ticket to D Country, so as soon as she gets off one plane, she boards another back?”
“After we finish this busy period, let’s go to the countryside for a few days. Since Bai Xiaoxiao loves her godchildren so much, she can take care of them.”
A trace of calculation flashed in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes as he smiled like a fox.
Wen Ran’s lips twitched, “Alright, after this busy period, let’s go on vacation.”
She said this and yawned.
Seeing this, Mo Xiuchen quickly ended the conversation, “Ranran, it’s late, let’s go to sleep.”
“I need to go to the bathroom first.”
Wen Ran got up, and Mo Xiuchen bent down to open the bedside drawer, taking out sanitary supplies for her.
Wen Ran took them, thanked him with a smile, and dashed into the bathroom.
Mo Xiuchen chuckled, thought of sothing, and then got out of bed, walking to the bathroom door to wait for Wen Ran.
He held her until she fell asleep and then got up and went into the study next door.
He was hesitating whether to inform Luo Haofeng about Bai Xiaoxiao’s return when his phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Mo Xiuchen’s narrow eyes squinted; leaning back in his chair, he pressed the answer button lazily, “Hello!”
“Xiuchen, am I interrupting sothing good?”
On the phone, Luo Haofeng’s voice seed tentative, as if truly afraid his call was ill-tid, ruining sothing good, and causing resentnt.
Mo Xiuchen chuckled, “If you were interrupting, would you hang up right away?”
“Of course not. It’s so late, surely you wouldn’t let Ranran stay up late, right? So I’m definitely not interrupting.”
Luo Haofeng spoke as if he understood Mo Xiuchen well.
“What’s going on? You didn’t call just to chit-chat, right? I don’t have ti for late-night gossip.”
Mo Xiuchen asked coolly. Although he wanted to call Luo Haofeng, since Luo Haofeng had called first, his pride asserted itself.
“Actually, I have sothing to tell you, but you seem in a bad mood? Xiuchen, are you and Ranran at odds, or are you being neglected by her?”
Mo Xiuchen smirked, “The things you’re imagining will never happen.”
“Don’t be so sure. What if soday a more handso man shows up, and Ranran, being fickle, dumps you?”
“If you have nothing else, I’m hanging up now.” Mo Xiuchen’s brow furrowed. Was this guy calling in the dead of night just to annoy him?
