Chapter 1142: 1141 slept soundly

“My God, I can hardly believe how much Ziyi and Momo understand when they’re so young.”

An Lin looked surprised as Wen Ran picked up Momo, placed her together with Ziyi, and immediately they stopped crying.

Fang Zhiwei said enviously, “Seeing how adorable Momo and Ziyi are, I really want to have a baby too.”

“That’s easy, go have one with Ah Kai,” An Lin teased with a laugh.

Fang Zhiwei’s face turned slightly red at An Lin’s words and she forced a smile a bit awkwardly, “That’s only if Ah Kai is willing.”

“Ha ha, didn’t Ah Kai say on the way back just now that he doesn’t blame you? Push a bit harder, and who knows, he might just have a baby with you and get the marriage certificate afterwards,” An Lin teased Fang Zhiwei even more as her cheeks reddened.

Wen Ran’s eyes twinkled, and she said with a smile, “It’s so late tonight, aren’t you planning to go home?”

“Ah, Ranran, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. I have to go. If Qin Mu leaves me and returns alone later, I’ll have nowhere to stay tonight.” An Lin was startled by Wen Ran’s words and then asked Bai Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, do you want to leave together?”

“You’re staying at Qin Mu’s house?”

Wen Ran knew that although Qin Mu seldom returned to G City, his house in G City was always kept clean and ready for him to stay in at any time.

An Lin nodded, “I stayed in a hotel last night and ran into a drunk man, nearly took advantage of me. Qin Mu kindly took me in and let me stay at his house. What’s with those looks? Don’t be so dirty, okay? I just slept in the guest room. That stingy guy Qin Mu wouldn’t even give up his master bedroom for me.”

“Where did we get dirty? It’s all in your mind. But honestly, Qin Mu, such a handsome and dashing man, you don’t need to sleep in the guest room at all. You should just climb into the big bed in the master bedroom. Xiaoxiao, Sister Wei, you agree, right?”

Wen Ran said this, and Bai Xiaoxiao and Fang Zhiwei laughed and nodded vigorously, “Exactly, An Lin, to think you would pass up on such a great guy…”

“I’m not talking to you dirty girls anymore, I’m leaving first.”

An Lin cut off Bai Xiaoxiao’s words and fled the room.

“Xiaoxiao, are you leaving?” asked Fang Zhiwei with a smile after An Lin had made her escape.

“I’ll stay a bit longer. You go ahead.” Bai Xiaoxiao hadn’t had enough playtime with her godson and goddaughter yet and didn’t want to leave right away.

“Ah Kai said he’d change my dressing, Ranran, I’ll head out first.” Fang Zhiwei smiled tenderly at Wen Ran.

After Fang Zhiwei left, in the hospital room, only Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran remained. Wen Ran then asked her, “Xiaoxiao, what about Yiyi? Did she go straight home?”

Bai Xiaoxiao, admiring her godson and goddaughter, looked up at Wen Ran’s question and replied, “Yes, Yiyi and I were in the same car. Qing Yang directly took her home before we came back to the hospital,”

“Oh.”

Wen Ran nodded, and seeing Ziyi wriggling his little body, she realized he had wet himself. She picked up a diaper from the side and changed him.

Bai Xiaoxiao was silent for a few seconds, then said softly, “Ranran, I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to accept Meng Ke’s pursuit.”

“Ah?”

Wen Ran tucked Ziyi in with a blanket and lifted her gaze, turning to look at Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao giggled heartlessly, “Ranran, shouldn’t you be congratulating me?”

Wen Ran glared at her, “Are you really sure?”

“I’m sure. Like my mom said, Meng Ke is a reliable man. I’ve decided to seriously date him, and if he can love me like Mo Xiuchen loves you, I’ll marry him.” Bai Xiaoxiao was smiling, but to Wen Ran, she looked like she was heading to the gallows.

She nodded and said gently, “That’d be nice, Meng Ke is indeed a good catch. You should try dating him and get to know each other better. Don’t rush into marriage; wait until Ziyi and Momo are a bit older, so they can be your flower children.”

“I’m only eighteen now, why would I be in a rush to get married? I’ll definitely wait for Ziyi and Momo to be my flower children before tying the knot.” Bai Xiaoxiao brushed the fringe away from her forehead, propped her chin in her hand, and struck a playful pose that made Wen Ran unable to suppress a chuckle.

“You might as well say you’ll stay eighteen forever.”

“You’re right, I’m indeed ‘forever eighteen,'” Bai Xiaoxiao declared shamelessly, and then burst into hearty laughter.

Mo Xiuchen returned to the hospital room, and it was already 11:45 PM.

Pushing open the door of the room, he saw Wen Ran lying in bed with Bai Xiaoxiao squatting in front of the crib. A slight smile tugged at his lips as he softly said, “Ranran, why haven’t you slept yet?”

“Didn’t I tell you on my way back? I can’t sleep.”

Bai Xiaoxiao chuckled, stood up, and said, “Mo Xiuchen, now that you’re back, I’ll head home first.”

“Let Qing Yang drive you back,” Mo Xiuchen said, nodding calmly.

“No need, I’ll drive myself back,” Bai Xiaoxiao waved her hand in refusal, but Mo Xiuchen took out his phone and dialed, “If you drive yourself, Ranran will worry. I’ll have Qing Yang take you.”

As he finished speaking, the phone connected, and Qing Yang’s voice came through.

“Qing Yang, wait downstairs and take Bai Xiaoxiao home.”

“Is the dinner over? How come you’re back so soon?” After Mo Xiuchen took a shower and came out of the bathroom, Wen Ran asked.

He walked over to the crib, bent down to touch Ziyi and Momo’s little cheeks, then sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to hold Wen Ran’s hand, saying gently, “The dinner wasn’t over, but Fang Zhiwei called Ah Kai, so we came back early.”

“Sister Wei called my brother?” Wen Ran’s eyes flickered with surprise since Fang Zhiwei had left a while ago, “Did Ah Mu go with you guys too?”

“Ah Mu went too; we came back together.”

As Mo Xiuchen spoke, he shifted closer to Wen Ran, swinging his legs onto the bed, leaning against the headboard, and wrapping his arm around her, drawing Wen Ran into his embrace, “Ah Mu didn’t want to go initially, but Director Gao insisted on dragging him along. He couldn’t refuse the kindness, so he had no choice but to go.”

“Is it because of Uncle Qin?” Wen Ran’s eyes lit up, a smile appearing in her eyes.

Mo Xiuchen arched an eyebrow, teasingly saying, “Half yes, and half no.”

Wen Ran pondered for two seconds before asking with sudden realization, “Is it because of Qin Mu? Director Gao isn’t trying to set him up with his daughter, is he? How unattractive must his daughter be for him to be so desperate to find her a husband?”

“Haha, Ranran, if Director Gao heard you say that, he’d be so angry he’d spit blood. Although, if his daughter looks anything like him, she’s probably not much to look at,” Mo Xiuchen said quite wickedly.

“Ziyi and Momo are sleeping so soundly.” Wen Ran’s gaze moved past Mo Xiuchen to the sleeping Ziyi and Momo in the crib, her voice becoming inadvertently tender.

Mo Xiuchen tightened his hold around her just a bit, his gaze warm as he looked at her, “Ranran, that day, were you really upset with me?”

Wen Ran was taken aback by his deep voice, “At that time, I was just too worried about Momo.”

She knew that her words had hurt Mo Xiuchen.
