Chapter 567: 566 Take good care of her
By the time they got home, it was already ten o’clock.
Mo Xiuchen handed Wen Ran the medicine and watched her finish it, then he fed her a date.
“Ranran, is it bitter?”
In his eyes, filled with tenderness, a touch of heartache appeared.
Wen Ran chuckled and shook her head, “No, it’s not bitter.”
Chinese medicine, how could it not be bitter? Mo Xiuchen had drank it for months, and if she wasn’t stopping him now, he would rather keep taking it with her.
After Nanny Zhang took away the medicinal bowl, he grabbed her hand, stood up, and whispered: “We should sleep early tonight, we have a morning flight tomorrow. Being on a plane for over ten hours can be very tiring.”
“Okay!”
Wen Ran smiled at him, letting him hold her small hand, and they headed upstairs together.
Returning to the master bedroom, Mo Xiuchen let go of Wen Ran’s hand to fill the bathtub for her. Wen Ran’s phone rang, distracting her attention, and she picked up her phone to answer.
“Brother!”
The bathroom door was half open, and the faint sound of water could be heard. Wen Ran sat down in front of the sofa. Her body leaned into the sofa, slightly tired. Her eyes, however, were staring in the direction of the bathroom.
“Ranran, you’re traveling abroad with Director Gu tomorrow, right?”
Wen Jin’s voice came from the phone, deep, warm and full of concern.
He knew about the incident when Mo Xiuchen had faked his death, and Wen Ran promised to stay with him because Mo Xiuchen had faked his death.
“Yes, tomorrow.”
Wen Ran answered shortly.
“Will Mo Xiuchen accompany you?” Wen Jin asked again.
“Yes, he will accompany me.” A touch of happiness appeared on Wen Ran’s lips, she was still looking at the bathroom despite not being able to see the man filling water there, but looking at that half-open door made her feel inexplicably warm.
“Good, now that Mo Xiuchen is with you, I can feel at ease. Ranran, Mo Xiuchen has resigned as president and now has plenty of time. After you go abroad, there’s no rush to come back. Let him accompany you and enjoy your time.”
Though Wu Tianyi is dead, Xiao Wenqing is now locked up, there’s still Fu Jingyi. With Wu Tianyi’s death, no one knows where Fu Jingyi is now.
Wen Jin thought Ranran would be safer traveling abroad than staying in G City.
If she and Mo Xiuchen leave G City, Fu Jingyi won’t know where they are, and in this way, Ranran will be safe.
But if she stays in G City, it would be impossible to ensure that Fu Jingyi won’t harm her, considering that he had once provoked Gu Yan.
Wen Ran chuckled, her tone light, “Brother, you think just like Xiuchen. Xiuchen just said today that he wants to take me all over Europe.”
“Really?”
While hearing this, Wen Jin chuckled from the other end of the call.
Wen Ran raised her eyebrows slightly, “Of course, don’t mistake me for lying to you.”
“Haha, I never thought you would. What’s the departure time tomorrow? I will see you off.”
Wen Jin laughed again.
“The flight is at 9 a.m. tomorrow, brother, you don’t need to see me off.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mo Xiuchen came out of the bathroom with a gentle voice, “Ranran, the bath is ready. You should take a bath first.”
When Wen Jin heard this on the phone, he didn’t continue the conversation but advised gently, “Ranran, you better hurry and take a bath and go to sleep, or you will be very tired after tomorrow’s long flight.”
After saying goodbye to Wen Jin and hanging up the phone, Mo Xiuchen had already taken out her pajamas from the wardrobe for her. She took the clothes from him, cheeks slightly flushed.
He had not only brought out her pajamas but also her underwear.
As Wen Ran went into the bathroom to take a bath, Wen Jin called Mo Xiuchen. He walked over to the French window and picked up the call.
“Fu Jingyi might be abroad, but it’s not clear where he is. You need to protect Ranran.”
On the phone, Wen Jin’s voice was not as gentle as when he spoke with Wen Ran, but hinted at a trace of worry.
“I know.”
The gaze in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes dimmed a bit. The mention of Fu Jingyi always made his mood gloomy.
“Half an hour ago, Zhixing told me that Wu Tianyi’s death might be related to Qin Sen. Currently, Zhiyan is investigating covertly. If it really was him, perhaps they can grasp the vine to find the melon, and find Fu Jingyi.”
A moment of silence followed, before Wen Jin’s voice came again, deeply.
At that moment, a cold light appeared in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes. Qin Sen? He had not forgotten how Qin Sen had tried to implicate Gu Yan in the police station that afternoon.
Within a few days, he had shown his flaws and raised Zhixing’s suspicions?
Although Zhixing was a sharp, detailed detective, he still believed something was amiss. Qin Sen was not a fool, if he really had any connection with Fu Jingyi, why would he have said those words that day?
“Does Zhixing have any evidence?”
After pondering for a few seconds, Mo Xiuchen asked calmly.
“There’s no evidence yet, but Qin Sen’s wife has a vineyard abroad, and Zhixing feels that something’s abnormal. He’s still investigating…”
Wen Jin didn’t know for sure, Zhixing only briefly mentioned it over the phone before hanging up, as if he had urgent matters to attend to.
“If there is something shady about Qin Sen, then you should tell him to be careful. I feel that either Qin Sen is innocent, and it’s Zhixing’s misjudgment… or, Qin Sen is purposely leading Zhixing into a trap, in which case, he may be in danger.”
After hearing Wen Jin’s words, Mo Xiuchen quickly analyzed the situation in his mind. The more he thought, the more something seemed off.
Hearing this, Wen Jin was taken aback, “I will call Zhixing in a bit and remind him.”
Although Zhixing was not a fool, his investigation of Qin Sen had probably already given him some indication of the potential threats. Nevertheless, he still wanted to remind him.
“Yes. Wu Tianyi’s death was caused by Xiao Wenqing through the help of Wu Tianyi. And now, Wu Tianyi himself was murdered. Of course, someone within the police department was bribed by Fu Jingyi. However, things may not be that simple. You just mentioned that Qin Sen’s wife has a vineyard abroad, where is it? What’s its name?”
Mo Xiuchen raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, then asked calmly.
Wen Jin informed Mo Xiuchen about the name of the vineyard, which happens to be in D Country.
No wonder Wen Jin wanted to call him to remind him to take good care of Ranran: “Okay, I got it.”
Mo Xiuchen looked at the bathroom door which was tightly closed. He had been talking with Wen Jin for a long period and guessed that Ranran should be done soon.
He planned to check that vineyard again.
Sure enough, as soon as he put down his phone, the bathroom door opened.
He turned around and walked towards Wen Ran, took the towel off her head and said with a smile, “Ranran, let me help you.”
After bathing, Wen Ran’s face was slightly flushed, and a charming scent emanated from her. As the scent touched his nose, Mo Xiuchen’s mind rippled slightly.
