Chapter 147 - 147: Do you think it could be Cheng Jia?

They’d only been married a little over a month – even though they get along quite well, they were not like other married couples or lovers who are deeply in love, or inseparable in life and death.

If it were her, she would definitely not dare to say such things.

But MO Xiuchen did, and he said it with such determination.

For a moment, the hospital room was silent, save for the sound of breathing.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

In MO Xiuchen’s tender gaze, there was only Wen Ran’s delicate face. Her eyes reflected her mere shock and incredulity, but also an emotion that made his heart flutter. If there were no other people around, he absolutely wouldn’t hold back from bending down to kiss her.

Ever since their encounter months ago, she had taken root in his heart; she may not be the best or the most perfect woman, but she was the one who captured his heart in an instant.

No matter how excellent or perfect others may be, in his opinion, they couldn’t compare to even a single strand of her hair.

Her simplicity, her strength, her stubbornness, her tenderness, all her flaws — in his eyes, they all turned into lovable traits. He liked her without reason, he desired to pamper her, love her!

Cheng Jia was stunned as if struck by lightning, and it took her quite a while to regain her senses.

MO Xiuchen’s hand around Wen Ran’s waist tightened, and he turned to Gu Kai and said, “Ah Kai, arrange for the discharge procedure, I’ll arrange a transfer for Cheng Jia later.”

Cheng Jia finally snapped out of her stupor, her tear-filled eyes looking at MO Xiuchen, opening and closing her mouth, but no words came out.

“Don’t worry, you won’t have suffered this injury for nothing. When we find out who is behind all this, she will repay it doubly.”

A trace of bloodthirsty cruelty slipped into MO Xiuchen’s resounding voice. a hint of panic flashed in Cheng Jia’s eyes, her body trembling slightly, and her hands under the quilt gripped tighter and tighter.

These minute movements, though fleeting, weren’t missed by MO Xiuchen’s sharp eyes.

After Gu Kai left the sick room and finding no further entertainment, Luo Haofeng elegantly left as well.

Wen Ran looked up at MO Xiuchen and said, “I should go back to the pharmaceutical factory now.”

She had already spent two hours in the hospital, if she didn’t return soon, it would be closing time.

MO Xiuchen pursed his lips, and gently said, ‘Wait for me outside for two minutes and I’ll take you back.”

Wen Ran nodded, without saying any more to Cheng Jia, she turned and walked towards the door.

MO Xiuchen’s gaze followed her out of the room, and it was only when the door was shut that he turned his gaze back to the pale-faced Cheng Jia on the bed, “Do you want to go home or transfer to another hospital?”

Young Master MO, I…”

Cheng Jia seemed to be about to say something, but the words halted, and she looked at MO Xiuchen, seemingly repressed from speaking.

MO Xiuchen’s expression was cold, his attitude towards her compared to his attitude towards Wen Ran was as different as the cold winter and warm spring. He coldly said, “Wen Ran is the woman I love, I don’t want to hear such words again, even if you saved me earlier, that won’t work.”

Like a bolt out of the blue, Cheng Jia was left with a numb mind.

“In a moment, I’ll have Little Liu come and pick you up and take you home. Before we find a new babysitter, Nanny Zhang will take care of you temporarily. Even though she’s my nanny, I respect her like a mother.”

This implied a warning for Cheng Jia not to go too far. He knew how she treated Nanny Zhang and Little Liu.

“I understand.”

Cheng Jia held back her tears, not daring to let them fall.

MO Xiuchen took two steps and then turned around again, looking at Cheng Jia from a distance, he said, “The evidence from that worker, within ten days, I will definitely expose the person who ordered it.”

After speaking, he took a deep look at Cheng Jia and strode away.

In the sickroom, Cheng Jia just stared blankly in the direction of the door, his words repeatedly echoed in her mind, and his sharp, cold gaze seemed to appear in front of her again. A chill crept into her feet and quickly spread throughout her body.

When MO Xiuchen stepped out of the elevator, he noticed Wen Ran, Luo Haofeng, and Gu Kai standing at the entrance of the hospital, conversing about something. A faint smile was on Gu Kai’s lips, and his gaze toward Wen Ran held a warmth and affectionate that he himself may not have noticed.

His eyes darkened, and he walked toward them.

Luo Haofeng was the first to notice MO Xiuchen’s arrival and alerted Wen Ran, who was engrossed in conversation with Gu Kai, “MO Xiuchen’s here! ”

Upon hearing this, Gu Kai smiled, bid farewell to Wen Ran, turned around, and walked towards MO Xiuchen. They exchanged a glance and brushed past each other.

Luo Haofeng also said ‘I’m leaving first’ , wisely avoiding being the third wheel, and left by himself.

Wen Ran looked at the approaching MO Xiuchen and asked with a smile, “That was quick, wasn’t it?”

MO Xiuchen returned her smile, and when he arrived in front of her, he naturally took her hand and led her out of the hospital and toward the parking lot.

Wen Ran quietly followed him. At the parking lot, MO Xiuchen opened the passenger door for her, watched her get in, and then closed the door. He walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver’s seat.

The inconspicuously luxurious Aston hit the road, MO Xiuchen glanced at the quiet woman beside him, and gently asked, “Ranran, do you think that the person who ordered the worker could be Cheng Jia?”

Wen Ran, lost in her thoughts, was taken aback at MO Xiuchen’s words. She looked at him in surprise, seemingly not expecting him to discuss with her so directly whether Cheng Jia was the instigator.

After a moment of thought, she said, “If it is Cheng Jia, then she has paid a huge price for this ploy.”

MO Xiuchen faintly curled his lips, a hint of mockery embedded in his deep magnetic voice, “She didn’t pay a huge price, but she is ruthless enough towards herself. She probably knew that I’ve been investigating her and her family and was afraid I wouldn’t believe she was the little girl from back then, so she resorted to this self-harming trick.”

Wen Ran was taken aback.

Didn’t Cheng Jia fear that the brick could have killed her?

If it really was her, then Cheng Jia’s hospitalization isn’t to be pitied or sympathized with, she got what she deserved.

She felt relieved once again that it wasn’t MO Xiuchen who was hit by the brick, but Cheng Jia. She stopped scanning over MO Xiuchen’s handsome face and lowered her gaze to the distinct bones of his palm.

This was the second time he expressed his suspicion about Cheng Jia to her.

The first time wasn’t as obvious. Wen Ran stayed silent for a while before raising her head again to look at him and ask, “Is Cheng Jia not the little girl who saved you back then? Elder Brother Gu told me before that he’d always thought the little girl who saved you was his missing sister, and later, when you found Cheng Jia, she wasn’t his sister.”

In fact, Wen Ran was quite relieved that Cheng Jia was not Gu Kai’s sister. This thought might be selfish, but she simply didn’t like Cheng Jia. Now that MO Xiuchen said this, she even hoped in secret that Cheng Jia was not the little girl who saved MO Xiuchen back then.

If she was fake, then MO Xiuchen would certainly be able to find evidence, and Cheng Jia could disappear from her life.

MO Xiuchen’s gaze deepened, he asked seemingly casually, “Did Ah Kai tell you about this?”
