Upon hearing Mother Xiao’s words, Bai Xiaoxiao’s face slightly changed.
Beside her, Mother Bai looked at Mother Xiao in confusion, "Yunzhu, what disabled woman are you talking about, does Yuting have a girlfriend?"
"If she were his girlfriend, I wouldn’t be saying this."
Ji Yunzhu looked displeased and complained, "That woman ca to G City on a business trip before, and my Yuting, for so reason, just took a liking to her. Liking her is one thing, but the other party doesn’t reciprocate. A few days ago, that woman had an accident and I’ve heard she’s going to have a leg amputated..."
Ji Yunzhu briefly narrated the series of events.
Mother Bai understood more or less, "So that’s how it is, why don’t you just call him and tell him to co back?"
"It’s because he doesn’t listen when I call."
As she spoke, Ji Yunzhu turned to Bai Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, I heard that woman is Luo Haofeng’s secretary. You know her, right?"
"Luo Haofeng’s secretary?"
Mother Bai was startled and widened her eyes. Ji Yunzhu nodded.
"So, I want to ask Xiaoxiao to help make a call to Yuting. If he still doesn’t listen, Xiaoxiao can call Luo Haofeng and tell that woman not to pester our Yuting."
"Auntie, Qiao Siyi didn’t pester Xiao Yuting; it’s Xiao Yuting who likes her and won’t return."
Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated for a mont but couldn’t help defending Qiao Siyi.
Ji Yunzhu’s face instantly darkened, "Xiaoxiao, how can you say that? If that woman hadn’t been pestering Yuting, why would Yuting still be there, even though she’s disabled and doesn’t like him?"
Previously, it was her son who liked the other person.
But now, Ji Yunzhu felt it must be that woman pestering her son.
Bai Xiaoxiao gently explained, "Auntie, Qiao Siyi already has a boyfriend. She’s not the kind of girl who becos disabled and clings to Xiao Yuting. I’ll call Xiao Yuting now and tell him that you’re asking him to co back, okay?"
"Okay."
Ji Yunzhu’s expression slightly softened.
Bai Xiaoxiao took out her phone and dialed Xiao Yuting’s number.
After a few rings, Xiao Yuting’s voice ca through, "Hello, Xiaoxiao."
"Are you still in City B? When are you coming back?"
Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at Ji Yunzhu, who stood by her side, and straightforwardly asked.
"I’m coming back this afternoon. Xiaoxiao, what’s up?" Xiao Yuting felt genuinely guilty for calling Bai Xiaoxiao and causing the breakup of Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao.
He believed it was Bai Xiaoxiao who convinced Luo Haofeng, so Luo Haofeng agreed to marry Qiao Siyi.
"It’s not , it’s your mom who wants you to co back quickly."
"Oh, I know."
"Your mom is right next to . Say a few words to her so she won’t worry about you." Bai Xiaoxiao finished speaking and handed the phone to Ji Yunzhu without waiting for Xiao Yuting’s consent.
As soon as Ji Yunzhu got the phone, she said, "Yuting, you hurry back to ."
"..."
Bai Xiaoxiao turned her gaze aside, not listening to the conversation between the mother and son.
Two minutes later, Ji Yunzhu returned the phone to Bai Xiaoxiao, a smile on her face, "Xiaoxiao, thank you, your words still work. Yuting said he’d co back this afternoon."
Bai Xiaoxiao faintly smiled, "Auntie, no need to thank , Xiao Yuting isn’t a child, he knows what he’s doing."
After saying goodbye to Ji Yunzhu, Mother Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao left the mall together and got into the car. Only then did Mother Bai ask, "Xiaoxiao, earlier your Auntie said the girl Xiao Yuting likes is Luo Haofeng’s secretary, what’s going on?"
Not long ago, Xiao Yuting was still pestering her Xiaoxiao, and now he has changed his heart again.
That kid really is a playboy.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered as she avoided Mother Bai’s gaze, "Mom, I’m not really sure either."
"But your Auntie said that girl had an accident and beca disabled. Call Luo Haofeng to ask what happened, is he alright?"
Mother Bai wasn’t particularly concerned about Luo Haofeng, she mainly wanted to take this opportunity to have Xiaoxiao contact Luo Haofeng.
In the past few months, Xiaoxiao hadn’t ntioned Luo Haofeng at all, seemingly getting along fine on her own.
But Mother Bai knew that Xiaoxiao wasn’t truly happy inside, even if she was smiling, the smile wasn’t genuine.
This made her sad as well. If she hadn’t opposed Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng being together so firmly at the start, even if Xiaoxiao knew the truth, she wouldn’t be feeling self-reproach like this.
"Mom, don’t worry, he’s fine."
A hint of inquiry flashed in Mother Bai’s eyes, "Is he really fine? Have you already called?"
"If sothing’s wrong, I would know without having to call. He’s on such good terms with Mo Xiuchen, if anything happened, Ranran would definitely tell ."
Bai Xiaoxiao’s tone was slightly stiff, but Mother Bai didn’t get suspicious because of it.
Since Xiaoxiao always had this attitude whenever Luo Haofeng was ntioned.
She thought, realizing Bai Xiaoxiao was right, that if anything had happened to Luo Haofeng, Mo Xiuchen would definitely know.
So she smiled again, "It’s good that he’s okay. Xiaoxiao, let’s go pick out a nanny now."
**
Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu didn’t stay long in City B. On the afternoon when Qiao Siyi’s surgery was completed, they rushed back to G City.
They were on the sa flight as Xiao Yuting.
When Mo Xiuchen got ho, Wen Ran was watching the three kids drawing.
Seeing him return, surprise flashed in Wen Ran’s eyes, "Xiuchen, why are you back?"
Momo and Xin Xin cheerfully shouted ’Daddy’ and ran over to hug each of Mo Xiuchen’s legs.
Ziyi looked up and obediently called out "Daddy," then bowed his head to continue drawing.
Mo Xiuchen lovingly patted the heads of his two daughters, led them to the sofa, and glanced at the drawings on their paper before sitting next to Wen Ran.
"Qiao Siyi’s surgery is done, nothing else is pending, so Ah Mu and I ca back."
His broad hand held Wen Ran’s soft hand as he explained gently.
Wen Ran looked up at him, softly asking, "Will Luo Haofeng and Qiao Siyi really end up together and get married?"
Mo Xiuchen’s handso brows furrowed slightly, "Unless anything unexpected happens, they should."
Luo Haofeng isn’t soone who goes back on his word.
Nor is he irresponsible, since he’s said he will marry Qiao Siyi, unless sothing changes.
If not, Luo Haofeng and Qiao Siyi will end up getting married.
For so reason, upon hearing Mo Xiuchen’s words, Wen Ran suddenly felt a heavy feeling in her chest.
Seemingly sensing her emotional ripple, Mo Xiuchen tightened his grip on her hand just a bit, a tender smile tracing his lips, "Ranran, don’t be upset because of their situation, if he and Xiaoxiao really aren’t ant to be, there’s nothing we can do."
Over the years, Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao had been on and off, and everyone around had done all they could to help. If in the end, they still couldn’t be together, then truly, they weren’t destined to be.
