Chapter 305: I have loved… before you, 304.

Wen Ran gave him a glare, pursed her lips, and ignored him.

“It’s not just Cheng Jia that I’m taking on this business trip, it’s company protocol. There’s a learning opportunity for the staff, and this time we have three slots. You wouldn’t have known this because you haven’t been to work in a while.”

“To D Country?”

Wen Ran pouted. He got this response because he didn’t elucidate in the first place.

Mo Xiuchen chuckled softly, “Yes, we’re going to D Country, and we’ll be there for three months before we can return. Today, two old directors from the board recommended Cheng Jia, stating that her performance was excellent and deserved the opportunity. Initially, I wasn’t planning on letting her go, but now I think she should. I believe she knows what she needs to do given the chance.”

What he was implying is that Cheng Jia would abort the baby.

As long as she did, she wouldn’t pose any threat to Little Liu. As for Tong Shishi, he had no plans to interfere just yet.

“Even if Cheng Jia aborts, Tong Shishi may not forgive Little Liu.”

“Well, this serves as a test for both of them. According to Ah Mu’s research, Tong Shishi isn’t a simple girl. She has been in a relationship before with a rather good-looking man.”

“Why didn’t you mention this before?”

Wen Ran questioned, puzzled. Tong Shishi and Little Liu knew each other since they were kids and should only be a few years apart. Having a relationship at their age is pretty normal.

“You were focused on taking care of Bai Xiaoxiao these few days, you wouldn’t have the energy to worry about other things. Little Liu’s issues with Tong Shishi are trivial matters. In comparison to Tong Shishi and Cheng Jia, he is like a blank canvas; experiencing more would benefit him.”

Mo Xiuchen stated nonchalantly, as though he had numerous romantic experiences.

Wen Ran couldn’t help but giggle, “If you find someone worth spending a lifetime with, there’s no need for additional experiences.”

Mo Xiuchen’s lips twitched into a seductive smirk, “Just like us, right?”

“Who knows if you have been fond of other women before me?”

Wen Ran twisted her face in refusal, tired of being teased by him each time. She shot him an annoyed glance and shifted her gaze elsewhere.

“Hahaha!”

Mo Xiuchen broke into a hearty laugh, his laughter vibrant and captivatingly charming.

“Ranran, there’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while.”

After the laughter subsided, he glanced fervently at Wen Ran; his features illumined by the mirth made it impossible to look away.

Wen Ran’s heartbeat quickened involuntarily. She had an inkling of what he was about to say.

A pair of limpid eyes silently gazed at him.

“Before you, I did have feelings for another girl.”

Mo Xiuchen’s voice was hushed and magnetic, every word slow and clear.

Wen Ran’s gaze flickered, the pressure on her pursed lips slightly increasing.

“Ranran, over the years, I have cared deeply for the little girl who saved my life. At that time, I was only eleven, and she looked about five or six years old.”

The room was engulfed in silence.

Mo Xiuchen paused, the only sound in the room was their breathing.

Observing his faraway gaze, Wen Ran’s heart tightened, suddenly unsure whether she was that little girl.

She had no memory and Mo Xiuchen didn’t know the name of that little girl either.

Except for knowing the little girl had a mole on her chin, he should have no other clues. He might have mistaken many other girls to be her before.

“What I remember most is her palms. They were cool to the touch.”

Mo Xiuchen recalled the events of that time, it was his duty to remind Ranran of a past that she has forgotten because that little girl was her.

And he had loved her from the beginning.

Time goes by, things change, but the fondness and special feelings he has for her have never varied.

“Back then, I was detained in a small dark room. Those people were hurting me, attempting to torment me until I died. Suddenly, she appeared, unlocking the cold iron chains bound to me and leading me by my hand to escape!”

“Her palms were cold, yet they felt incredibly warm to me. The coolness drove away the despair in my heart, instilling me with renewed hope.”

“Initially, I intended for us to leave together, but we were pursued almost immediately. In order to facilitate my escape, she chose to stay behind, asserting they wouldn’t harm her…”

“What happened next?”

Wen Ran’s voice trembled slightly.

She was reminded of the reoccurring dream she’d had since childhood.

“Then, she was caught by the pursuers. One of them must have known her well. She held them off so I could escape.”

Mo Xiuchen suddenly reached out and grasped Wen Ran’s slender hand. His lips curled into a tender smile as he softly spoke, “The feeling was just like this, Ranran. When I met you for the first time a few months ago and held your hand, it felt exactly like this.”

Wen Ran stiffened.

Her eyes wide and unblinking.

Her heartbeat erratic.

“Although you don’t have a mole on your chin, instincts are peculiar things. From the moment I first saw you, I was sure it was you. Later, I had someone investigate you. The results showed that you were just Wen Hongrui’s daughter.”

“Then, how did you…”

Mo Xiuchen smiled faintly and said, “Later on, you mentioned that you couldn’t remember anything from before you were six years old. I found that quite odd. At that time, although Cheng Jia claimed to be the little girl from my past and I couldn’t find evidence to disprove her…”

“I asked Ah Mu to personally investigate it in F City. You then sought help from Uncle Ming, who helped me find you last time. He has numerous connections. Eventually, he dug up your past. You weren’t Wen Family’s biological daughter, but were adopted by President Wen’s couple instead. However, very few people knew about this.”

“They kept your past a secret and moved to G City. From then on, no one else knew.”

“My father was trying to protect me. My elder brother told me that when my father rescued me, I was severely injured.”

Wen Ran explained softly, she had taken Wen Jin’s words as the truth.

Mo Xiuchen nodded, a deep affection emanating from his eyes. “Yes, you were being hunted down because you were Uncle Gu’s daughter, and they had kidnapped you. Uncle Gu’s enemies didn’t want you to live and go back home. Ranran, Wen Jin told me that you frequently had a recurring dream since childhood, is that right?”

He had been wanting to ask her these questions long ago.

If it weren’t for Bai Xiaoxiao’s hospitalization due to a car accident and Wen Ran attending to her all these days, he wouldn’t have waited until now to share it with her.

“Yes, in my dreams, there’s a little boy, but I can’t see his face. I don’t know why, but I tell him to run and he promises to come back and find me. I don’t know if that dream is something I lived through because I can’t remember.”

Wen Ran was at a loss. She couldn’t recall anything at all.

Mo Xiuchen affirmed firmly: “Ranran, it wasn’t a dream but a forgotten memory. You see, despite you forgetting everything due to your illness, you still remembered me. And for all these years, I’ve firmly believed that no matter how hard it got, I would find you.”
