Translator: 549690339

Aston parked slowly outside Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory; MO Xiuchen undid Wen Ran’s seatbelt, speaking in a gentle tone, “I have a function tonight and will be home very late. It’s been raining and cold these days, don’t wait up for me; make sure to rest early.”

Wen Ran smiled and nodded, looking through the glass window, and caught sight of Bai Xiaoxiao walking to the office building from inside the factory. She opened the car door with one hand, then said to MO Xiuchen, “I won’t wait for you, drive carefully.”

“Okay!”

MO Xiuchen’s lips curled into a slight smile; his eyes aglow with kindness as he watched her enter the factory gate. He only started the car and left after Bai Xiaoxiao, who’d reached the front of the office building, turned around and looked back at her.

“Xiaoxiao, what brings you here now?”

Inside the factory, Wen Ran quickly approached Bai Xiaoxiao. As the two chatted, they walked into the office building together. Bai Xiaoxiao cast her an ambiguous glance, feigning admiration, “I don’t have an attentive husband like you to spend time with, so I had no choice but to come find my good sister to kill some boring time.”

Wen Ran shot her a glance, “You must have been busy laughing at the scandal involving Xiao Yuting and Linda the past couple days; how could you possibly be bored.’

At this, Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, her probing gaze fixed on Wen Ran, “Speaking of

which, why did you and MO Xiuchen suddenly want to end the live broadcast that day? Were you up to some mischief in the office?”

Wen Ran’s eyes flickered, avoiding Bai Xiaoxiao’s indecipherable gaze. The intimate memories of that day in MO Xiuchen’s resting room sprang irresistibly to her mind, causing her cheeks to flush a faint pink.

“Ah, Ranran, you surely were up to some mischief. MO Xiuchen really knows how to set the mood, even in the office.”

Bai Xiaoxiao, spotting Wen Ran’s blush, stated confidently.

“Stop spreading nonsense, it’s almost time to start work. What important things brought you to me, or are you just planning to waste time here because you’re free this afternoon?”

Wen Ran gave her a glare, and walked upstairs.

“How could I have nothing to do? Let me tell you, I did two things today.”

Bai Xiaoxiao walked upstairs shoulder-to-shoulder with her.

Absent-mindedly, Wen Ran asked, “What things?”

Bai Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow smugly, “Firstly, Xiao Yuting called to invite me over for dinner, but I turned him down. Ranran, don’t you think I did it splendidly?”

A flicker of surprise passed over Wen Ran’s face, causing her to pause as she pushed open the door. She turned and looked at Bai Xiaoxiao’s face, filled with smugness and coquettish pride, and lightly laughed, “Yes, very splendidly. Why did Xiao Yuting invite you over for dinner? Was he apologising, or does he want to start over with you?”

“Pfft!”

Bai Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, strode over to the sofa and plopped down ungracefully, crossing her legs casually, slouching into the couch, “It was his parents who told him to call; they don’t know about our broken engagement. His parents wanted to invite my parents and me for a meal.”

Understanding dawned on Wen Ran, she narrowed her eyes and teased cheerfully, “Xiaoxiao, if Xiao Yuting were to patch things up with you, would you agree?”

“I wouldn’t agree even if he kneeled before me and begged. I won’t accept even if he begs me to be with him.”

Bai Xiaoxiao proudly lifted her chin, all the world like a queen.

She’d given up on Xiao Yuting; she has already watched him make a fool of himself yesterday, and the past few days had revealed his scandal-ridden past. She realised that she truly felt nothing for Xiao Yuting anymore.

This incredible revelation made her ecstatic.

Perhaps she wasn’t attached to the playboy that was Xiao Yuting all these years, but her imaginatively perfect lover.

Once she saw his true colors, she found her previous stubbornness ridiculous.

Wen Ran found relief in Bai Xiaoxiao’s story and smiled, “Xiaoxiao, you’ve truly moved on from Xiao Yuting. Congratulations!”

Bai Xiaoxiao returned her a playful smile and continued, “Not only did I turn

Xiao Yuting down today, but I also stood Luo Haofeng up.”

Upon saying this, Bai Xiaoxiao ridiculed herself, “I feel like I have such strong romantic luck recently, maybe I should find a man and hurry up and get married like you. Who knows, I might just meet a nice guy like MO Xiuchen.”

Wen Ran gave her a look, stood up to pour two glasses of water, and handed one to Bai Xiaoxiao. After taking a sip from her glass and warming her hands around it, she asked, “What do you mean you stood Luo Haofeng up? He asked you out as well?”

Bai Xiaoxiao laughed, “He somehow knows my dad, and he paid a visit to our company this morning, even becoming a VIP in my dad’s eyes. He asked me to have lunch with him. You don’t know this, but at the hotel the other day, he actually asked me whether I had fallen for him. He even said there was a long queue of women waiting to be his girlfriend. So, I gave him an opportunity to let those women who like him treat him.”

“What does that mean?” Wen Ran was puzzled.

Bai Xiaoxiao patiently explained, “Luo Haofeng is like a butterfly, attracting everyone at our company, from the secretaries down to the front-desk girls. I sent the girl who swoons the most over guys to have lunch with him, then I slipped away quietly!”

“What?!—Xiaoxiao, you really dare to do such a thing. Luo Haofeng becoming a VIP at your company likely means he was there representing MS Group. Didn’t Uncle Bai tell you?”

Bai Xiaoxiao looked clueless, so Wen Ran shot her a glance and said, “You gave me a planning proposal before to let MO Xiuchen review, right? He agreed to cooperate with your company. Luo Haofeng was there for this reason.”

“But that doesn’t make sense, isn’t Luo Haofeng the factory manager of H City’s pharmaceutical factory? How could he…”

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, murmuring a silent “damn” in her heart; now she would have to hear her father’s endless nagging again.

“MO Xiuchen told me that Luo Haofeng will be staying in G City for some time. He just took office and needs a competent assistant; Qin Mu alone is too busy, so Luo Haofeng will stay and help.”

As Wen Ran’s words trailed off, Bai Xiaoxiao’s phone started to ring hurriedly. Startled, she pulled out her phone and saw that it was her dad. She groaned mournfully, “Oh no, my dad is calling to settle accounts with me. It must be that scheming little man, Luo Haofeng, who snitched on me.”

“That’s surely not necessary. Even if you did send a love-struck girl to accompany him for lunch, he wouldn’t go tattling.”

Luo Haofeng shouldn’t be so petty.

Bai Xiaoxiao gave a bitter smile, and admitted honestly, “I did tell her to dress in a pretty and sexy manner, and to take good care of Luo Haofeng. As you know, that girl can’t help but throw herself at men when she sees one…”

Wen Ran’s lips twitched— she knew who Bai Xiaoxiao was talking about. That girl was a desperate single woman nearing her thirties. She had been in love countless times and been dumped the same amount. At present, any male associates were seen as potential targets to pounce upon.

Given Bai Xiaoxiao’s instructions, clearly, she wouldn’t just let Luo Haofeng flirt with her, but instead, she would be the one initiating. If it’d been a beautiful woman, it wouldn’t have been so bad, but it had to be a woman who was both obese and robust..
