Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1458: 1457 Are you planning to divorce?

Thinking of this, Wen Ran instinctively turned her gaze to Gu Kai.

Perhaps sensing her gaze or perhaps it was a mutual understanding, Gu Kai, who had been talking to Tongtong with his head lowered, raised his eyes and looked at her.

When their eyes met, a hint of a smile flickered in Mo Yu’s eyes, causing Bai Yiyi’s heart to involuntarily skip a beat in response to that gentle smile.

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she lowered her eyelids to conceal her discomfort.

Seeing her embarrassment, Gu Kai’s gaze shifted slightly, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

***

At the top floor of Haochen Building, in the CEO’s office.

Qin Mu pushed the door open and looked at Mo Xiuchen who was reviewing documents behind the desk, “Mo Xiuchen, what’s the matter?”

“Sit down first.”

Mo Xiuchen dialed the internal line and instructed the secretary to bring in two cups of coffee. He then stood up, walked over to the sofa and sat down, glancing at Qin Mu, and spoke calmly, “Ah Kai and Bai Yiyi went to get their marriage registered today.”

“So quickly?” Qin Mu looked at Mo Xiuchen in surprise.

During the gathering at Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, he just felt they were quite nice together, and now they’ve registered.

“Yes, quite quick.” Mo Xiuchen smiled faintly, “Ranran is at home preparing lunch, and once they’ve got their marriage certificate, they will come home. Join us for lunch at my place.”

“Just for this?”

Qin Mu was somewhat surprised, Mo Xiuchen could have mentioned this over the phone, why make him come to the office.

“Of course, not just for this matter.”

Mo Xiuchen’s smile faded, and he said seriously, “I heard that some days ago, Gao Yuwen went to see Uncle Qin and An Lin’s father because of her father’s matter.”

At this, a flicker of an unusual look passed through Qin Mu’s eyes, which would have been missed if Mo Xiuchen hadn’t been watching his expression closely.

“How did you know?”

Qin Mu’s tone was calm as if it was something that had nothing to do with him, so he wasn’t bothered.

Mo Xiuchen squinted slightly, a subtle, ambiguous curve formed at his lips, “I heard it, and it seems An Lin’s father helped him out.”

“I’m not really clear on that.”

Qin Mu smiled indifferently, leaning his tall body into the sofa.

The secretary brought two cups of coffee, put them down, and silently exited the office.

Qin Mu lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze resting on the coffee in front of him, a layer of coldness appearing between his brows, “An Lin hasn’t mentioned it to me.”

“Ah Mu, is there something wrong between you and An Lin? Or are you mad at An Lin because of this matter?”

Mo Xiuchen’s voice carried concern, back then, he ended up with An Lin because Gao Yuwen drugged him; now, Gao Yuwen’s father is in trouble.

Gao Yuwen sought help from both families, An’s family is willing to lend a hand.

No wonder Mo Xiuchen, with his keen insight, suspected part of the situation but hadn’t fully grasped the other part.

Qin Mu discreetly pressed his lips together, spoke softly, “No, why would I be mad at her because of her father’s matter, Mo Xiuchen, you’re overthinking.”

“Really?”

Mo Xiuchen didn’t believe Qin Mu, “That night, after Ranran went back, she called An Lin.”

Hearing this, Qin Mu’s gaze shifted slightly, “What did they talk about?”

He asked casually, as if it was an indifferent matter, took the coffee in front of him, tasted it elegantly, and placed it back on the table.

“Just some women’s topics, but I think there might be some misunderstanding between you and An Lin. Otherwise, why would she stay in A City all the time and not come to G City with you?”

Qin Mu stayed silent.

“Ah Mu, back then you promised to be responsible for An Lin; you grew up together, don’t be mad at her because of someone else’s affairs.”

“It’s not someone else’s affairs.”

The coldness between Qin Mu’s brows deepened, his dark eyes seemed to condense with ice.

Mo Xiuchen was slightly stunned.

His deep eyes half-closed, brow furrowed lightly as he looked at Qin Mu, “Then what is it about?”

“That night’s matter was her own orchestration.”

Qin Mu’s tone was cold and suppressed with anger.

Mo Xiuchen was shocked, “You mean that night you ended up together was planned by An Lin? How could that be, why would Gao Yuwen help An Lin when she likes you so much?”

“Mo Xiuchen, I don’t want others to know about this.”

Qin Mu was unwilling to explain further.

“Could you have misunderstood An Lin?”

Mo Xiuchen asked with concern, he didn’t think An Lin would resort to unscrupulous means for love, back then, An Lin was initially reluctant for Qin Mu to take responsibility.

Qin Mu smiled self-deprecatingly, “I haven’t misunderstood her, currently only you know, don’t tell Ranran.”

“What do you plan to do, divorce An Lin?”

Mo Xiuchen asked with a furrowed brow, concerned. Though puzzled, since Qin Mu didn’t want to elaborate, he couldn’t probe further.

Qin Mu isn’t someone inclined to believe rumors, if he says that night’s matter was orchestrated by An Lin, he must have evidence.

Or An Lin admitted it herself.

Despite not believing An Lin to be that kind of person, but…

“I promised at the time, I would be responsible for her for life.” Qin Mu said, standing up to leave.

“Ah Mu, are you coming home with me for lunch?”

“Yes, Ah Kai and Bai Yiyi have achieved what they wished, how can I not go.” In just an instant, Qin Mu restrained his emotions and returned to normal.

Mo Xiuchen wanted to say something, but Qin Mu spoke first, “Mo Xiuchen, remember to keep my secret.”

He will not initiate a divorce; his promises are always kept. As long as An Lin is willing to continue, there’s no need for others to know.

If An Lin proposes a divorce, it would be different if people around them knew.

“That’s your private life with An Lin, I won’t gossip.” Mo Xiuchen asked because he cares about his brother.

If Ah Mu doesn’t want him to talk, he certainly won’t say a word.

However, he feels conflicted asking him to keep it from Ranran, with the previous matter between Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao, he kept it from Ranran, and she was angry when she found out.

Now it’s another matter with Ah Mu.

“Ah Mu.”

As Qin Mu reached the door, Mo Xiuchen called out to him again.

He turned, inquiring with his eyes.

Mo Xiuchen said calmly, “Don’t misunderstand or wrongly accuse An Lin, her feelings for you are genuine.”

Qin Mu’s gaze changed slightly, turned, and left the office.

Mo Xiuchen furrowed his brows, returned to the desk, took out his phone, and stared at the screen displaying his photo with Wen Ran for a while, then pressed the call button.

Marriage Registration Office

Gu Kai received the red booklet from the staff and handed one to Bai Yiyi, “Yiyi, this is yours.”

“Daddy, give this one to me.”

Tongtong, seeing Gu Kai handing a booklet to her mom, immediately stretched out her little hand for the other one.

Though she couldn’t read, she had a great interest in this red booklet.

“Alright, this one is for Tongtong, hold it well, don’t drop it.”

Gu Kai handed the booklet to Tongtong, seeing her staring at it without opening, he had to turn to look at the one Bai Yiyi was holding, smiling, “Yiyi, let me have a look.”
