Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 153: She’s not the best, but she’s the one he likes

Translator: 549690339

Along the main road from the airport to Kangning Hospital, a black Aston steadily maneuvered through the traffic. Autumn wind blew in through the semi-open car window, carrying a hint of floral scent into the air.

In the passenger seat, Shen Yuting’s gaze rested on the hands controlling the steering wheel, her mind a mix of emotions.

Even though MO Xiuchen had picked her up from the airport and his words had numbered less than ten, and she was the one doing most of the talking, she could still keenly sense the changes in him.

On the phone the other day, her cousin told her that MO Xiuchen was getting along very well with his new wife, he was less indifferent and more often smiled. Initially, she didn’t believe it.

For many years, there had never been a woman whom MO Xiuchen treated differently. She had always assumed he would be like this forever, unexpectedly, he had changed within just half a year of her absence.

The aura he used to give off had lost its coldness. When he mentioned his new wife, there was an unmistakable warmth in his eyes, traces of happiness etched on his face.

MO Xiucheng rarely took the initiative to speak when she did not. His gaze was focused intently on the road ahead, and his handsome features were familiar to her. She pursed her lips and casually asked, “MO Xiuchen, I heard from my cousin that you’ve not only married, but also found that little girl from the past. Is that true?”

During her time abroad, Shen Yuting had little contact with her family due to her work. The few conversations she had with Gu Kai mostly revolved around MO Xiuchen.

MO Xiuchen merely let out a noncommittal hum, offering no explanation.

Shen Yuting’s eyes flickered, guessing he probably didn’t like speaking about that girl, she promptly changed the subject, curiously asking, “How did you meet Wen Ran?”

“At a banquet over four months ago.”

This time, MO Xiuchen’s answer changed from a single syllable to a complete sentence. And once again, Shen Yuting noticed with careful attentiveness that, as soon as Wen Ran was mentioned, MO Xiuchen’s voice would soften.

Her heart felt as if it had been ruthlessly tugged, a pain rapidly spread throughout her body. As she encountered the slight gentleness in MO Xiuchen’s expression, she suddenly became very curious about the woman named Wen

Ran.

She was eager to meet her, to see how wonderful she must be to turn such a cold-hearted man like MO Xiuchen into a normal human being.

“She must be very beautiful and talented,” Shen Yuting speculated.

Her curiosity was growing. She simply could not imagine what type of woman MO Xiuchen would like. Over the years, although he had shown no interest in women, there were countless who wanted to get close to him, offering all sorts of allurements.

MO Xiuchen glanced at her, the corner of his sexy lips curved slightly into a

smile, his deep eyes filled with a warm glow as he gently said, “She is not the most beautiful, nor the most accomplished girl. She has her flaws, being too innocent, stubborn at times, and so strong that it breaks my heart. But, you would certainly like her once you meet her.”

Shen Yuting’s eyes were slightly dazed as she stared at the handsome face beside her, its expression filled with fondness and affection, something she had never seen before.

He wasn’t boasting, nor did it appear contrived. It was a casual tone, yet it contained the deepest affection in the world. At that moment, Shen Yuting’s heart no longer felt pain.

What remained was just a deathly quiet.

She knew that she would never have a chance in this life. MO Xiuchen wasn’t a man who fell in love easily, but once he did, it would be for a lifetime. That woman named Wen Ran was indeed fortunate to have won his heart.

MO Xiuchen seemed oblivious to the heartbreak and bewilderment in Shen Yuting’s eyes. His gaze remained on the road ahead, and his strong hands effortlessly controlled the steering wheel.

“Let me tell you a little secret. Ah Kai has special feelings for Ranran, she might be his long-lost sister, your cousin.”

MO Xiuchen’s words seemed to be sharing a secret, but his true intentions, it appeared, only he knew.

At least at this moment, Shen Yuting’s mind was a complete muddle. She was completely astounded by his words, her eyes widening as she stared at him, “MO Xiuchen, are you saying that Wen Ran is my cousin?”

The light ahead turned red, and MO Xiuchen slowly reduced speed, stopping the car behind a Bentley. He turned to look at Shen Yuting with a gentle gaze, calmly saying, “It’s not certain yet. For the time being, don’t tell anyone about this, including Wen Ran.”

Shen Yuting’s lips moved, but ultimately, no sound came out. She pressed her lips together again.

In these short few minutes, her heart felt like it had been on a roller coaster ride….

As the Aston returned to the road, MO Xiuchen continued, “I heard from Ah Kai that you’re planning to give a nationwide lecture tour after returning. When does it start!”

The ensuing topics mostly concerned Shen Yuting’s work. Gradually, her mind returned to normal, and she started talking more.

The Xiao Group

Bai Xiaoxiao led Wen Ran straight into Xiao Yuting’s office.

Behind the grand desk, Xiao Yuting was talking sweet words to his girlfriend.

Seeing them, surprise flashed across his face. He told the person on the phone ‘we’ll talk later’ and hung up.

He moved from behind his desk and gestured Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao to sit on the sofa. His attitude was polite and sincere, which was a stark contrast to his usual icy demeanor towards Bai Xiaoxiao.

“Xiaoxiao, I heard you went abroad for a vacation, when did you return?” Xiao Yuting asked politely as he sat down on the opposite sofa.

Bai Xiaoxiao responded, “Just now.” There was no emotion in her voice, even her gaze was indifferent, devoid of the admiration and affection she once harbored for him. Her eyes were calm, carrying a hint of autumnal chill.

She opened her newly bought limited -edition bag, took out an emerald bracelet, and gently placed it on the coffee table. She said plainly, “This is the bracelet auntie gave me. I’ve kept it all this time. Now, I’m returning it to you. From now on, you are you and I am me. We have nothing to do with each other.”

“Xiaoxiao!”

Xiao Yuting’s handsome face darkened, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Bai Xiaoxiao.

He wasn’t sure if he was surprised at her changes, or if he was just a little uncomfortable. From childhood to adulthood, Bai Xiaoxiao had always clung to him like a tail, never leaving him alone. He had had many relationships, and she had sabotaged every one of them.

When did she stop clinging to him? He thought about it, it seemed to be since that time at the Yi Pin Xuan when he told her that he would never have feelings for her.

Afterwards, she started avoiding him, deliberately distancing herself from their two companies’ cooperation. She then made a trip to F City and after returning, she went abroad.

There was something different about Bai Xiaoxiao at this moment.

Bai Xiaoxiao ignored Xiao Yuting’s surprised expression, and turned to Wen

Ran, “Ranran, let’s go!”

Wen Ran nodded her head with a small smile, “Alright!”

The time it took from entering Xiao’s company to leaving the building was less than five minutes. In such a short time, Bai Xiaoxiao had ended the feelings she had been harboring for over twenty years.

No matter how heartbroken she was, at least, in Xiao Yuting’s office, she had managed to maintain the last shred of her self-respect, not allowing him to look at her with mockery or disdain anymore..
