Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1907: Chapter 1906: Burning Bridges After Crossing the River

Teaching a few kids to ride horses, Mo Xiuchen really didn’t have time to call Wen Ran.

Wen Ran accompanied Bai Xiaoxiao for a stroll until noon, and they found a Western restaurant for lunch.

She was teasing Wen Ran about how her Mo Xiuchen was so patient, when instead, Bai Xiaoxiao’s phone rang.

Wen Ran smiled and said, “Looks like someone else couldn’t hold back?”

Bai Xiaoxiao glared at her, took out her phone, saw the caller ID, and said with a slight frown, “It’s Xiao Yuting.”

Wen Ran blinked and curiously asked, “Xiao Yuting must have found something out and wants to take advantage, huh?”

A while ago, when Bai Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng were together, Xiao Yuting had disappeared.

Now that Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng have broken up, and Meng Ke has been arrested, Xiao Yuting has reappeared.

“He’s never short of beautiful women around him; he doesn’t need to wait for a chance with me.”

As Bai Xiaoxiao spoke, she pressed the answer key and said a faint Hello.

“Xiaoxiao, where are you right now? I need to talk to you.” Xiao Yuting’s voice came from the phone, sounding unusually serious rather than his typical laid-back manner.

“I’m out shopping with Ranran. What’s up?”

Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at Wen Ran and answered calmly.

“Where are you shopping? I’ll come find you.”

“You can just tell me over the phone what’s going on.” Bai Xiaoxiao frowned and didn’t answer Xiao Yuting’s question.

But Xiao Yuting insisted on knowing where Bai Xiaoxiao was, “I can’t explain it over the phone, give me the address.”

Having no choice, Bai Xiaoxiao gave him the address.

By the time Xiao Yuting arrived, Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao had finished lunch and moved to the downstairs coffee shop.

“What’s so urgent?”

Seeing Xiao Yuting walk over in a hurry, Bai Xiaoxiao frowned with confusion.

Wen Ran, with one hand on her coffee cup, looked calmly at Xiao Yuting without saying anything.

Xiao Yuting pulled out a chair and sat down. Although he rushed over, he seemed hesitant when it came to discussing the matter.

After a two-second hesitation, he awkwardly said, “Xiaoxiao, I need you to do me a favor.”

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Yuting, puzzled, “What kind of favor?”

“Can you call Luo Haofeng and ask Qiao Siyi to come to G City to handle some matters.”

“Huh?”

Bai Xiaoxiao thought she misheard.

Beside her, Wen Ran also blinked in surprise, Qiao Siyi? If she remembered correctly, that was Luo Haofeng’s secretary.

Get Qiao Siyi to handle things?

Xiao Yuting’s company and Luo Haofeng’s company have business relations. Last time, Luo Haofeng brought Qiao Siyi to G City for a business trip.

Later, because Bai Xiaoxiao went to D Country, Luo Haofeng, being uneasy, left Qiao Siyi in G City to handle the follow-up matters while he rushed to D Country.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression changed slightly.

“Isn’t this something you should ask Luo Haofeng yourself? How am I supposed to help you?”

Detecting reluctance in her tone, a hint of unease appeared on Xiao Yuting’s face, “Xiaoxiao, it’s because Luo Haofeng wouldn’t agree that I’m asking you for help.”

“Did something go wrong with your collaboration?”

“Sort of, the matter was initially handled by Qiao Siyi last time. Now there are some issues, and she needs to take care of them.”

Xiao Yuting awkwardly explained.

Bai Xiaoxiao became more puzzled, “Since it’s a work-related issue, why wouldn’t Luo Haofeng agree?”

“It’s not that Luo Haofeng disagrees, it’s that Qiao Siyi doesn’t want to come, and Luo Haofeng says he can’t force her.”

Mentioning this point, Xiao Yuting became annoyed.

Luo Haofeng, that ungrateful jerk, he had helped him and Xiaoxiao cover up quite a lot in the past. Now, asking him to send Qiao Siyi to G City on a business trip, he wouldn’t even agree to that.

“Since it’s a work matter, it doesn’t necessarily have to be handled by Qiao Siyi, right? Luo Haofeng is in G City right now, can’t you just find him?”

Hearing Bai Xiaoxiao say this, Xiao Yuting’s face turned ugly.

If it were the same with Luo Haofeng, why would he need to look for Qiao Siyi?

Wen Ran, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly smiled.

Xiao Yuting looked at Wen Ran in confusion, and Bai Xiaoxiao also turned to look at Wen Ran. Meeting her smile, Bai Xiaoxiao blinked, “Ranran, did I say something wrong?”

Wen Ran chuckled lightly, teasingly said, “Perhaps it’s something Luo Haofeng can’t replace in Qiao Siyi. Qiao Siyi is quite the beauty, very smart, and understanding.”

Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at Wen Ran, then at Xiao Yuting, and suddenly realized.

Pointing a finger at Xiao Yuting, she exclaimed, “Xiao Yuting, could it be that you like Qiao Siyi?”

There was actually a hint of discomfort on Xiao Yuting’s face as he avoided Bai Xiaoxiao’s probing eyes, lowered his head, and pressed his lips together tightly.

Seeing she guessed right, Bai Xiaoxiao immediately laughed happily.

Being ridiculed by her, Xiao Yuting frowned and said gloomily, “Yes, I do like her a bit, but she doesn’t fancy me. She said she already likes someone.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s laughter stopped at Xiao Yuting’s explanation.

A hint of pity appeared in her eyes, “Really? Does Qiao Siyi have a boyfriend?”

She wasn’t familiar with Qiao Siyi, so she didn’t know if Qiao Siyi had a boyfriend.

Xiao Yuting snorted, “She doesn’t have a boyfriend, but she said she likes someone. I asked who, but she wouldn’t say.”

Xiao Yuting didn’t think he was worse than any other man.

He wanted to find out what kind of man caught Qiao Siyi’s attention and once he knew who his rival was, he could figure out how to defeat him.

However, Qiao Siyi just stubbornly refused to tell him.

This made him extremely frustrated.

“So, you want Qiao Siyi to come to G City on a business trip so that you have a chance to get close to her and win her heart.”

Bai Xiaoxiao propped her chin with one hand, smiling at Xiao Yuting.

The little bit of sympathy she had vanished into thin air.

Xiao Yuting, with a stern face and tightly furrowed brows, said, “That’s right, Xiaoxiao, I used to help you too. Now call Luo Haofeng and ask him to send Qiao Siyi to G City on a business trip.”

“I really can’t help you. He won’t listen even if I call.”

The smile on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face disappeared, and her voice suddenly dropped.

Xiao Yuting was stunned, his first reaction was that Bai Xiaoxiao was unwilling to help him, rather than unable to, so he impatiently scolded, “Xiaoxiao, you wouldn’t be like Luo Haofeng, burning the bridge after crossing, right? Back when you and Luo Haofeng were dating, I helped cover for you from Uncle and Auntie.”

“…”

Bai Xiaoxiao remained silent.

Xiao Yuting continued, “Everyone knows Luo Haofeng listens to you the most. Just one call from you, not to mention asking him to do such a small thing, even if you asked him to walk through fire and water, he wouldn’t hesitate.”

Bai Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and interrupted Xiao Yuting’s complaints, “Let me be honest with you, Luo Haofeng and I broke up long ago, so I really can’t help you.”
