Wen Ran shook her head, “I’m waiting for Mo Xiuchen, he said he’d pick up after the dinner party.”
“I just called Mo Xiuchen, he’s on his way to the hospital, let’s go down and wait for him.”
Gu Kai smiled gently, speaking in a soft tone.
“Alright!”
Wen Ran blinked, not sure whether she was being too sensitive, but she felt that Gu Kai had sothing to tell her. Pondering for a mont, she agreed.
After saying goodbye to Bai Xiaoxiao and her mother, Wen Ran left with Gu Kai.
“Ranran, the results of the examination are out.”
Gu Kai spoke as they approached the elevator.
Wen Ran paused, stopping in her tracks.
With the help of the light, she looked up at Gu Kai. His eyes were as dark as ink, and under his handso brows, his smile had faded, inexplicably making her feel uneasy.
“Did sothing go wrong with Mo Xiuchen’s and my dical examination?”
After a mont, Wen Ran asked softly.
“I just talked to Mo Xiuchen, he said he’d tell you himself.”
Looking at Wen Ran’s beautiful eyes, Gu Kai felt a pang of pain. She was only 23, in the pri of her life, but…
His hand in his pocket clenched into a tight fist.
“Older Brother Gu!”
A pale color spread across Wen Ran’s face, Gu Kai’s expression made her heart sink.
He said he’d told Mo Xiuchen already. Did that an there was really sothing wrong with Mo Xiuchen? Without realizing it, she pursed her lips.
“Ranran, originally I promised Mo Xiuchen that he would tell you himself, but since you’ve asked before, I thought it was better to let you know.”
Gu Kai took a deep breath, suppressing his sadness, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
“Older Brother Gu, go ahead.”
Wen Ran’s voice was so soft, like a gentle breeze whispering in Gu Kai’s ear. Under her gaze, he said softly, “When Mo Xiuchen got hurt before, we all thought he was ruined for life. After many years of treatnt, and because he didn’t show much interest in won, I told you that I didn’t know if he was actually cured.”
At the elevator entrance, Wen Ran listened quietly. The elevator doors opened and closed, yet no one ca out, and no one went in.
“His current condition isn’t the worst. As long as he keeps getting treatnt, you two can still have your own child soday.”
Wen Ran’s lips tightened, and her body stiffened slightly.
She rembered the previous conversation they had in this hospital when she and Mo Xiuchen went to see Gu Kai. She told him in the corridor that she wanted to have a child.
At that mont, he had frozen in surprise.
His expression was strange, and she stubbornly thought that he didn’t like the idea of having children.
Now she understood. He was likely haunted by so sort of trauma. Even if his previous illness was cured, it had left behind so issues…
Suddenly, her eyes stung, and she instinctively looked up at the ceiling.
Gu Kai’s voice stopped.
Just the day before, she saw Shen Yuting in his office with tears in her eyes, trying hard not to cry.
She was heartbroken over her love, unwilling to let go of Mo Xiuchen…
Now, Ranran’s eyes were also welling up with tears. They were so crystal clear, making her eyes look like the brightest pearls. Gu Kai felt a tightening in his heart as he saw this.
Her love for Mo Xiuchen was unlike Shen Yuting’s, which had persevered for so many years. When Wen Ran married Mo Xiuchen, she didn’t even know him, let alone love him.
But in the past few months of living together, her love had slowly taken root, like a vine quickly entwining her whole heart. Unconsciously, her love had reached a point where she couldn’t let go.
The deeper the love, the more unbearable the pain.
As she looked up at the ceiling, a tear slipped from her eye, rolling down her fair cheek. Seeing this, Gu Kai drew a tissue from his pocket to wipe her tears, “Ranran, actually, you two could consider not having children.”
Although all of this was a lie, those words were still hard for Gu Kai to utter.
Wen Ran suddenly stiffened!
Her clear eyes widened abruptly as she stared at him. After quite a while, she softly shook her head, as if making a difficult decision in her heart, “Older Brother Gu, I want to try.”
Gu Kai was shocked and couldn’t speak the words he had planned.
There were still tears in Wen Ran’s eyes, but a strong smile erged on her face. Like a flower blooming after the rain, it was eye-catching. “I told you before, I want to give Mo Xiuchen a complete love and a complete family. No matter how hard it is, I’m willing to accompany him through the treatnt. Only when he’s physically healthy will he not have any psychological shadows.”
“Ranran!”
Gu Kai stared at Wen Ran in astonishnt.
She seed so heartbroken, yet her words were so resolute.
“I’m fine, Older Brother Gu, really, I’m fine.”
Wen Ran tried hard to suppress her sadness, forcing a smile.
“Mo Xiuchen hates drinking traditional Chinese dicine the most, but considering his condition, it’s best for him to take it. If you’re really decided on his treatnt, you must convince him to drink it.”
Wen Ran’s eyes flickered and quickly ca up with an idea, “If he’s unwilling, then I’ll drink it with him.”
“That’s a man’s dicine, how can you drink it with him?”
Gu Kai frowned, seemingly not agreeing with her suggestion. But inside, he let out a sigh of relief. He had said all this just to hear her say that.
“Older Brother Gu, can’t you prescribe so other dicine for ? Sothing like a tonic? I just want to drink dicine in solidarity with Xiuchen. I never said that I wanted to take his dicine.”
“Aren’t you afraid of bitterness? It’s not just for two or three days.”
Gu Kai was still skeptical, afraid she couldn’t persist.
“I’m not afraid!”
Wen Ran’s brow slightly furrowed. Actually, just thinking about the bitter taste of traditional Chinese dicine made her unable to bear it.
Even though she had grown up around Chinese dicine and she could identify many dicinal scents, drinking dicine wasn’t like eating candy. No one would willingly do it.
But now, for the sake of Mo Xiuchen’s illness and to cure him, she was willing.
Whether it was drinking for a month or two or a year or two, she would accompany him.
In the past, when he suffered, she wasn’t by his side. She’d only heard him talk about it, and it had broken her heart.
Now that she could be there with him, she found it comforting.
Just as Gu Kai was about to say sothing, Wen Ran’s phone suddenly began to vibrate. After a mont of buzzing, the ringtone sounded.
“Mo Xiuchen should be here.”
Looking at her tear-soaked, crystal clear eyes, Gu Kai spoke, adjusting his tone to be as light and tender as possible.
Wen Ran took out her phone, and seeing the na displayed on the incoming call, a warm look entered her teary eyes. She said softly, “It’s Mo Xiuchen.”
As she spoke, she raised her other hand to wipe her tears, took a deep breath and cald her emotions until her voice was light and tender, “Hello, Mo Xiuchen!”
