Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2545: Chapter 349

Momo wanted to laugh but held it back and said, "I didn’t say that. Your self-assessment has nothing to do with me, don’t make me take the blame."

"It’s written all over your face."

Ye Zhan pointed seriously at Momo’s face twice, "Here."

Momo glared at him, pushed his hand away, and said sternly, "Focus on work, don’t talk."

"Okay."

For the rest of the way, Ye Zhan really didn’t speak again, nor did Momo; she just quietly accompanied him.

After being away from home for a few days, Ye Zhan drove Momo back to the Mo family. He didn’t go home himself but headed straight to work.

At the Mo family, Wen Ran was in the yard playing games with Zirui. When she saw Momo return, Zirui, with a childish voice, called out "Auntie" and staggered towards her.

"Zirui, slow down, slow down."

Momo worriedly called out, stepping forward to catch him. Zirui giggled in her arms, looking up and calling out, "Auntie, Auntie."

"Did you miss Auntie, Zirui?"

"Yes."

"Where did you miss Auntie from?"

"Here, here."

Zirui thought for a moment, then cutely pointed to his stomach and then to his head with his little fingers.

Momo laughed as she picked him up and corrected him, "It’s thinking of Auntie with your heart, not with your tummy."

"Heart."

Zirui repeated in his childish voice.

"Mom, is Qingqing not home?" Momo asked casually as she approached Wen Ran with Zirui in her arms.

Wen Ran pulled out a chair, signaling Momo to sit down, and then smiled as she replied, "Qingqing is in the kitchen making something for Zirui to eat. Has Ye Zhan’s grandfather woken up?"

"Mom, how did you know?"

"Why didn’t you call us to let us know?"

"I was afraid it would upset you."

"You’ve come this far with Ye Zhan, even if we are upset, could we scold his father and grandfather?" Wen Ran feigned anger at Momo.

Momo appeased her by admitting her fault, "Mom, it was my mistake. I should have told you and Dad right away. Ye Zhan’s grandfather even said he wanted to come to G City personally to apologize to you, and his father wanted to come to G City to meet you, but Ye Zhan refused."

Wen Ran sighed.

Seeing Zirui slide off Momo’s lap and ready to run again, she smiled and reminded him to slow down and not to fall.

Watching Zirui sit on the mat and play with his toy car, Wen Ran shifted her gaze back, "Your Grandpa An and Grandfather Qin will be returning to the Imperial City in a couple of days, and so will your Uncle Qin."

"When are Grandpa An and they going back?"

"Probably the day after tomorrow, or the day after that. Your dad said that when Ye Zhan’s grandfather wakes up, he will accompany your Uncle Qin to send your Grandpa An back."

"Mom."

Momo’s nose tingled, and she felt an inexplicable pang of sadness.

Wen Ran’s eyes showed a loving smile, "Those things are in the past now. As long as you’re well and Ye Zhan treats you well, that’s all that matters."

"Mom, I’m sorry."

Momo’s eyes immediately welled up with tears.

The feelings in her heart were indescribable, and she felt she was too unfilial, too selfish.

"Don’t say such silly things."

Momo lightly pursed her lips and said gloomily, "Even if Ye Zhan and I are together, you don’t have to do these things for me."

"Ye Zhan has gone through hard times too. Don’t you want to resolve his family conflicts? Although you can resolve it by yourself, without your dad stepping in, it will always be a concern for Ye Zhan."

Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen shared the same thoughts.

Back then, Old Master Ye’s actions seemed selfish and infuriating to them, especially during the days when Momo was missing without a trace.

Wen Ran didn’t sleep well a single night or eat a single good meal.

She had also been angry with them, resented them.

Much like Ziyi, she thought that Momo would not be happy together with Ye Zhan; with a family like the Ye family, with a father and grandfather like Ye Zhan’s, Momo was destined to be the one sacrificed the next time a similar situation arose.

Even if they had just one daughter, like Momo, or even ten or a hundred daughters, they were still their own children, and they would not allow others to use or abandon them.

She would rather let her marry a simple man and live an ordinary life than be with Ye Zhan.

But over the past year or so, after witnessing Momo endure such inhuman torture and hardship, seeing her struggle on the edge of life and death, she realized there was nothing more important than her still being alive and living happily.

Ye Zhan is willing to come to G City for her, willing to devote himself entirely to her. As her parents, how could they be selfish enough to trouble their daughter?

All the concessions and letting go were solely for the happiness of their daughter.

"Mom." Momo called softly.

She had so much to say but it was all stuck in her throat; she couldn’t utter a single word.

"Ye Zhan will definitely be busy these two days since he’s just returned. After a few days, invite him over for a meal."

"Okay."

Momo’s eyes were still teary, but a bright smile emerged on her face.

At the entrance to the living room, Qingqing came out carrying food she made for Zirui. Seeing Momo, her eyes lit up, and she cheerfully called out, "Sister Momo, when did you come back?"

"A little while ago. Mom said you were busy in the kitchen, so I didn’t go in."

"What about Ye Zhan, didn’t he come with you?"

"No, he went back to work. Did you know Qinghuan’s studio is set up? Let’s go take a look together in a while."

Qin Qingqing had been thinking the same thing and readily agreed with Momo, "I heard Brother Ziyi mention it and was planning to check it out. Your timing is perfect."

"You little rascal, as if no one would accompany you if I didn’t come back." Momo teased Qingqing.

Qingqing pouted with a playful smile, "Brother Ziyi is at the office and has to make a special trip to pick me up, such a hassle."

"That’s true. Let’s celebrate Qinghuan tonight." Momo took out her phone and sent a message to the group, planning to ask if everyone knew, only to find that Gu Zhitong, Gu Zinan, and Tang Jinchen were already at Qinghuan’s studio.

[You guys are so sneaky, sneaking over there secretly.]

Qingqing pouted unhappily and sent a message.

Gu Zinan said he would send them a couple of photos to preview.

Momo immediately stopped him: [No pictures! We want to see it in person to get the real feeling.]

Meanwhile, at Haochen.

Bai Qingling and Chu Junming walked out of the lab, pulled out her phone to check the group messages, and turned to Chu Junming, asking, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Chu Junming raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "No, if there’s an issue, I’ll find you."

"If there’s nothing else then, I’m leaving work. Everyone’s headed to Qinghuan’s studio for a tour, and there’s a dinner at Yi Pin Xuan tonight. Are you going?"

A trace of mild surprise crossed Chu Junming’s eyes.

He usually didn’t bother to check WeChat, and group messages were muted.

He didn’t know about what Bai Qingling mentioned.

Remembering the call from Wen Ziyang he received earlier in the morning, he shook his head lightly and said, "You go ahead, I won’t be going."
