Wen Ran looked up at him.
He lowered his head, his handsome features obscured by the interplay of light and shadow. His eyes had a deep hue, an abyss that one can’t fathom at a glance.
“They joined the conglomerate just for your sake?”
She softly repeated his earlier words.
Initially, she thought that Qin Mu was his special assistant. When she met Luo Haofeng in F City, she presumed that it was purely a professional relationship.
It was only later that she learned that he and Luo Haofeng, Qin Mu, and Gu Kai were close friends. Moreover, Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng were not ordinary people.
At that time, she didn’t realize that they had joined the conglomerate specifically to help him.
A hint of warmth flitted through Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, his tone low and soothing, “Yes, they joined the conglomerate just to help me. Without them, I wouldn’t have been able to bring down Xiao Wenqing so easily, nor could I have replaced his people so quickly.”
Wen Ran didn’t respond, she just listened quietly.
Mo Xiuchen finished drying her hair, hung the towel on a rack, led her over to the vanity, had her sit down on the chair, and picked up a comb to brush her hair.
“Even though nobody has spoken about leaving, we all know clearly. Once Xiao Wenqing has been brought down, and the conglomerate no longer needs them, they’ll leave.”
“Over the past years, I’ve grown accustomed to Ah Mu and Ah Feng being by my side. We may not share blood ties, but they’re closer to me than my actual relatives. Initially, I promised myself that in this lifetime, wherever they needed me, be it through hell or high water, I wouldn’t even furrow my brows.”
“Xiuchen.”
Looking at the man in the mirror, Wen Ran couldn’t figure out why, but his words seemed too melancholic.
Mo Xiuchen chuckled at her, his emotional tone now softened by a hint of warmth, “Ah Mu said that he’s been working himself to the bone for me these past years and needs a break. He told me that there’s nothing to worry about, and there’s no need for me to disturb him.”
“It serves you right for exploiting him in the past.”
Wen Ran jokingly teased, not wanting Mo Xiuchen to feel melancholic about Qin Mu’s departure.
Although he appeared aloof on the surface, his heart was full of loyalty and affection.
From the attitude of Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu towards him, it was apparent. Even though they complained verbally, in reality, they would always care about his interests.
Mo Xiuchen gave a self-deprecating chuckle and hinted, “Indeed, I shouldn’t have exploited him so wantonly in the beginning; perhaps that’s why he left.”
Had he not expected so much of Qin Mu from the start, perhaps he would not have left so soon. Previously, he had wondered if Qin Mu was attracted to Shen Yuting.
Or perhaps he was interested in a nurse from Ah Kai’s hospital, or a patient…
Tonight, he finally understood. The person Qin Mu was interested in was his wife, the woman by his side, his beloved. Because she was his wife, Qin Mu had left.
With Qin Mu having been his brother for so many years, he should have understood it sooner.
Although he had never been keen on matters of love, he wasn’t the kind of man to shy away from pursuing a woman if he were interested.
Unless, that woman was someone he shouldn’t have feelings for.
In order to avoid it or perhaps forget, he had chosen blind dates instead. For the past several days, he had been going on dates every day, yet he hadn’t found anyone he was willing to spend time with.
Over the phone, Qin Mu hadn’t told him that he had fallen in love with his wife. However, Mo Xiuchen had a sudden realization when Qin Mu mentioned wanting to travel and relax.
He was silent for a long time, not trying to retain him, but simply telling Qin Mu to stay in touch, and they would meet again when he returned from his travels.
Several days before Wen Ran’s birthday, the Gu family began making preparations.

Indeed, it was the Gu family that was busy, whereas Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran still maintained their daily routine: going to work, finishing work, visiting Bai Xiaoxiao at the hospital, taking their medicine together at every meal.
Their days were spent warmly and peacefully.
Gu Kai had the house maid thoroughly clean the house. Although the house was never dirty and was cleaned every day, Gu Kai was particularly nervous about welcoming his sister home.
He also bought a few paintings for the house. However, the most important thing was that he had the second-floor room, which had been vacant for over 20 years, redecorated.
The room was previously filled with various toys for girls, purchased by his father and him. Every year on Ranran’s birthday, he would buy presents and place them in her room. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Now, the style of the room had changed. The childish atmosphere had been replaced as per Ranran’s room in the Wen family’s house, at the guidance of Wen Jin.
In the MS Group, as Luo Haofeng pushed open the door to the CEO’s office, Mo Xiuchen stood behind Wen Ran, bending forward, one hand holding hers. They were both holding the mouse together, looking at something on the screen.
“Ahem…”
He exaggeratedly coughed a couple of times before he swung the documents in his hand and came into the office, “Xiuchen, this is the data you asked for, it’s all here.”
After saying something to Wen Ran, Mo Xiuchen straightened up, caught the approaching Luo Haofeng’s gaze and quickly scanned over the data handed over by him. At the same time, he asked, “How’s the case going with Mo Zixuan?”
A trace of confusion crossed Luo Haofeng’s face, followed by a smile, “His team has been working for three straight days. However, they still haven’t come up with a plan that satisfies him, should we do something?”
“No need, he didn’t take the initiative to leave because of the previous scandal. It would be boring to make him leave now.”
Mo Xiuchen returned to his desk, gestured Luo Haofeng to take a seat opposite him, and continued their conversation.
“I was originally planning to do something, but since you said it’s not necessary, forget it.”
Luo Haofeng sighed dramatically, then suddenly leaned forward onto the desk, his narrow peach blossom eyes fixated on Mo Xiuchen, “Is Ah Mu really not coming back?”
“That’s what he said. At least he won’t be back until he’s had enough fun.”
Mo Xiuchen glanced at Luo Haofeng indifferently, then lowered his eyes to continue going over the data.
“Ah Mu is really weird. What’s with this sudden urge to travel? He’s not a romantic type at all. Could it be that after the blind dates at home, he got frustrated because no woman was taken with him?”
Upon hearing Luo Haofeng’s words, Mo Xiuchen’s mouth twitched. He looked at him, “Do you think that Ah Mu is the type of man that no woman would be attracted to?”
Qin Mu would certainly have an interesting look on his face if he had heard Luo Haofeng’s words.
“True, he does look good. But compared to me, there’s still a gap. Actually, among us four, I should have been the first one to get married. But somehow…”
At this point, Luo Haofeng suddenly twisted his body and looked towards Wen Ran, who was not far away. “Wen Ran, what did you see in Xiuchen?”
“Ah Feng, it seems like you’ve been having a lot of free time recently.”
Mo Xiuchen squinted, his voice carrying a dangerous signal.
Wen Ran lifted her face from the computer, meeting Luo Haofeng’s curious gaze. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, responding in a leisurely manner, “You ask what I see in Xiuchen, I can’t give you an answer, but there’s one thing I can tell you, Xiuchen is superior to you in every respect!”
