Chapter 174: You decide everything

Translator: 549690339

By the time Zhou Mingfu received the news, it was too late.

When Wen Ran and the herb suppliers were in Wen Jin’s room, Zhou Mingfu called them, but all three of them hung up on him.

Although Wen Jin was in the hospital, he was well aware of the situation at the pharmaceutical factory. He had a pleasant conversation with the suppliers for nearly half an hour.

At ten o’clock in the evening, Wen Jin asked Li Qian to send them back to the hotel to rest, but wanted to talk with Wen Ran for a while longer.

Qin Mu and Gu Kai tactfully gave the siblings some space, and went to Gu Kai’s office, asking Wen Ran to call them when she was done talking.

Wen Jin said affectionately, “Ranran, you’ve been working hard.”

If he were in good health, he wouldn’t need Ranran to entertain these herb suppliers. Thinking about how Zhou Mingfu’s call was hung up earlier, his brows furrowed slightly, and he instructed with a hint of unease, “You need to be careful these next couple days. Zhou Mingfu will definitely try something.” “Brother, are you really going back to the company tomorrow? Actually, I could handle those matters too.”

Wen Ran feared it would be inconvenient for her brother in his state, and she didn’t want him to get too tired.

“Hmm, let me handle it. I can’t ask you to do everything.”

Wen Jin gave a gentle smile. It wasn’t just about not wanting to tire his sister out. Instead, he thought, if she took care of everything, Zhou Mingfu would hate her more. Better Zhou Mingfu aim at him than at Ranran.

Wen Ran shook her head, “I really haven’t done much. Thanks to MO Xiuchen, Older Brother Gu and those herb suppliers, they wouldn’t have sold the herbs to us at such a price, let alone making any huge profits.”

Upon hearing her mention MO Xiuchen, a ripple seemed to stir in Wen Jin’s eyes. He asked casually, “Ranran, it seems like you and MO Xiuchen are getting along quite well.”

Seeing her happiness alleviated his worries a bit. However, the emotion buried deep within was stirred by the joy in her eyes.

Wen Ran smiled and said, “Brother, MO Xiuchen isn’t as cold and ruthless as rumored. He’s been really good to me. You don’t need to worry at all.”

The reflection of her smile in Wen Jin’s dark eyes gave him mixed feelings. A smile tugged at his lips, conveying an underlying concern. “While he’s good to you, he could also bring danger to you. Ranran, MO Xiuchen’s situation isn’t any better than ours.”

To outsiders, he’s the heir of the MS Group, ready to assume the position of the CEO tomorrow. But in reality, he’s surrounded by various risks. Xiao Wenqing is eyeing the MO family’s assets, and although MO Zixuan is not interested now, it’s uncertain whether he will compete for the family assets in the future.

Most importantly, Xiao Wenqing isn’t acting alone. She has backers, and a advisor helping her behind the scenes.

Wen Jin was conflicted. He both hoped MO Xiuchen was sincere in his care for Ranran, caring the same way he himself did, and feared the attentions MO Xiuchen lavished on Ranran, would put her in danger.

The people behind her might not be limited to Wu Tianyi. He had overheard some shocking information while monitoring Zhou Mingfu. Now he realized, considering back then, Xiao Wenqing was one of those who wanted to kill

Ranran.

Wen Ran, surprised by the shifting expressions on Wen Jin’s face, thought he might be worried that MO Xiuchen would hurt her. She smiled reassuringly, saying, “Brother, since I married MO Xiuchen, I should enjoy good times and endure hardships with him. And even if there may be danger, he’ll protect me.”

“Ranran, you’ve fallen for MO Xiuchen.”

A faint sadness flashed across Wen Jin’s eyes. Soon, however, it was replaced by gentleness. A certain affirmation in his tone, tinged with an unmistakable hint of melancholy.

Wen Ran’s eyes flickered. She responded half-heartedly, “Right now, my biggest wish is to find out who murdered our parents and got you injured. Nothing else is important.”

“Silly girl, leave our parents’ revenge to me. All you have to do is live a happy life. As long as you’re happy, I’ll be relieved.”

Wen Ran held Wen Jin’s hand in a move of grateful affection. She said, “Brother, we both deserve to be happy. Once you’ve fully recovered, you must help me find a sister-in-law quickly.”

Wen Jin’s face shifted slightly. Lowering his eyes to avoid Wen Ran’s laughter-filled gaze, he changed the subject, saying, “It is getting late. You should return and get some rest.”

Wen Ran pouted in pretend anger, releasing his hand. She complained, “Brother, every time I mention finding a sister-in-law for me, you always dodge the subject. I don’t care, now that our parents are gone, you have to listen to me. Once you’ve recovered and discharged from the hospital, I’ll help you with the matchmaking.”

Wen Jin was amused by Wen Ran’s feigned anger. His heart softened and he agreed, “Alright, once I’m out of the hospital, you make the decisions.”

He would be hospitalized for at least a few more months. He planned to gather evidence against Zhou Mingfu for his wrongful doings during this time. Over at MO Xiuchen’s place, Xiao Wenqing must be in a hurry and probably would take action sooner.

If by then MO Xiuchen could eliminate Jin Ji and secure a happy future for Ranran, his fate would no longer matter to him.

No matter what he was feeling, he wouldn’t let it show. Ever since Wen Ran became his family more than a decade ago, it was destined, that in this lifetime, he would only ever be her brother.

At those words, Wen Ran’s eyes sparkled with a smile. “Well, you said it yourself. There are no take-backs when the time comes. Don’t worry, I will definitely find a woman you like to become my sister-in-law.”

Wen Jin nodded with a smile, noting the time, he urged her, “Better go now.

Qin Mu will be getting impatient.”

No sooner had his words fallen than Wen Ran’s cellphone rang.

She took out her phone. Upon seeing the caller ID, her expression slightly froze. On the hospital bed, Wen Jin noticed her reaction. He asked gently, ‘Who is it?”

Wen Ran smiled, “It’s MO Xiuchen. He had other matters to attend to when I left the hotel earlier. I didn’t expect him to finish so quickly.”

Wen Jin glanced towards the door, “Then you better go now. He’s probably here to pick you up.”

Wen Ran agreed, then she left the sickroom and answered the call, “Hello?”

“Ranran, are you still in the room?”

“I just left the room. Have you finished your affairs?”

Wen Ran walked towards the end of the corridor while talking on the phone. The late-night corridor was quiet except for her own footsteps.

“I just reached the hospital. I planned to come up to pick you.”

The sound of a car door closing could be heard from the other end of the call. It had to be MO Xiuchen getting out of the car. Wen Ran gently denied, “Don’t bother coming up. Just wait for me downstairs. I’ll be down right away.”

“Okay!”

Just as someone greeted MO Xiuchen on the phone, he paused and replied before ending the call.

Wen Ran took the elevator downstairs, as soon as she left the elevator, she took out her phone to call Qin Mu. He and Gu Kai were still in the office waiting for her, she should let him know that she was leaving with MO Xiuchen.

Just as she dialed the number, a urgent voice came from the stairwell behind her, “Miss Wen, Mr. Wen asked me to come get you, he said he had something important to tell you..”
