Wen Ran’s birthday fell on a Saturday.
Mo Xiuchen gave her the day off, yet he himself returned to the company to work overtime.
As the year-end approached, everything was busy. Originally, he had to check the performance of each branch starting from Thursday. But because of Wen Ran’s birthday, he didn’t want to miss it, so he pushed his schedule back to Sunday.
After celebrating Wen Ran’s birthday today, he would be even busier tomorrow.
“Ranran, happy birthday!”
Wen Ran dialed Mo Xiuchen’s number, and the first thing she heard was not the familiar ringtone but Mo Xiuchen’s gentle blessing. She paused for a moment, then a wave of happiness surged in her heart.
His pace of speech was neither fast nor slow, but it was affectionate and gentle. Unconsciously, an image of his amiable and charming face while saying those words emerged in Wen Ran’s mind.
“Ranran, happy birthday!”
As soon as the call connected, Mo Xiuchen’s voice came through. Wen Ran’s heart felt sweet like honey. She hadn’t gotten out of bed yet, she was leaning on the bed under the blanket, her voice softly spilled from her lips, “How did you manage to make that your ringtone, it startled me just now.”
“Hmm, I set it last night.”
Over the phone, Mo Xiuchen’s voice sounded clear and cheerful, “Are you up yet? Why not sleep a little more? It’s still early.”
When he left in the morning, he had told her that he would accompany her for lunch and that they would go to the Gu Family’s house for her birthday in the evening.
“Not yet, I just woke up, I’m still in bed.”
“Are you going to the hospital later?”
“Yes, if you’re too busy at noon, you don’t have to accompany me to lunch.”
“I will make time for it.”
Mo Xiuchen’s response was definitive.
Wen Ran didn’t argue with him and agreed: “All right, then I’ll wait for you at the hospital.”
“Hmm, let Qing Yang drive slower, be careful on the road.”
When Mo Xiuchen was not around, the Qing Yang and Qing Feng brothers were responsible for protecting Wen Ran. Little Liu had been out of focus lately, and Mo Xiuchen gave him some time off. These past few days, his presence had been relatively scarce.
After hanging up with Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran got out of bed. The clothes she was to wear had been selected and placed on the bed by Mo Xiuchen before he left in the morning.
After washing up, she sat in front of the vanity and put on light makeup, then tied a scarf around her neck.
As she was going downstairs, Shen Yuting called.
She was calling to wish her a happy birthday.
“Sister Ting, you’re sick and you still remembered my birthday, are you feeling better now?”
Wen Ran waved her hand to Nanny Zhang in the living room, indicating that she didn’t need to prepare breakfast. She continued her conversation on the phone as she headed towards the door.
“Much better, I should be able to attend your birthday party tonight. However, I didn’t get a chance to buy a gift.”
Over the phone, Shen Yuting’s voice was feebler with a hint of illness. That night she encountered Jiang Liu, who looked like Mo Xiuchen, she nearly got assaulted by him in that alley. She hurriedly fled afterward.
The next day, she fell ill.
She had caught a serious cold which was uncommon for her.
Gu Kai suggested she to go home and rest for a few days, but she didn’t. Instead, she stayed in her apartment, secretly hoping someone would come to visit her.
But after waiting for so many days, not only did she not receive any visits from that someone, she didn’t even get a call. Wen Ran always stepped in and made those calls.
“I don’t need a gift, I just hope for you to get well soon, Sister Ting.”
Wen Ran walked out of the villa, and not far away, Qing Yang and Qing Feng were on guard. Seeing her approach, Qing Feng jogged over.
Shen Yuting had nothing important to discuss, she just wished her a happy birthday, they chatted for a bit, then ended the call.
“Miss Wen, happy birthday. This is the birthday gift from Qing Yang and me.”
Qing Feng magically produced an exquisite gift from behind and handed it to Wen Ran with a big smile.
“Thank you both!”
Wen Ran happily accepted the gift, and asked Qing Yang to start the car.
In the hospital room
Wen Ran refused to accept Bai Xiaoxiao’s gift, “I’ll receive the gifts this evening.”
Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, “You’re taking advantage of me being a patient. You know very well I can’t walk now, yet you still want me to attend your birthday party and watch you have all the fun.”
“I’ll accompany you. Xiaoxiao, you’re my best friend, we’re like sisters. If you don’t celebrate my birthday with me and blow out the candles together, I would feel like my birthday is pointless.”
Wen Ran looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with frustration. She was puzzled. Recently, everyone seemed weird.
It seemed to have started when Mother Bai invited Gu Kai to dinner. Both Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao stopped bringing up Luo Haofeng and even when Gu Kai came for ward rounds, Bai Xiaoxiao would courteously and apathetically respond, appearing to be uninterested in everything. freёnovelkiss.com
Another strange thing was Qin Mu.
Although Mo Xiuchen mentioned that Qin Mu had initially stayed in the company to help him and it was very normal for him to leave now that the situation had calmed down, she still felt it was rather sudden.
She thought that Xiaoxiao was disinterested in everything due to being confined in the hospital room for such a long time. Taking advantage of her birthday today and the birthday party that Gu Kai was throwing for her, she naturally wanted to get Xiaoxiao out to breathe some fresh air.
“Fine, I’ll go since you’re begging me that much.”

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Xiaoxiao agreed with a smile.
Wen Ran beamed brightly, placed the gift on the bedside table, “Give it to me in the evening.”
“Be careful, I might change my mind, take out the gift, and give you an empty box.”
Bai Xiaoxiao glared at her.
“It’s okay. As long as it’s from you, I’ll accept it no matter what it is, even if it’s just air.”
What Wen Ran cared about was not the gift, but the sisterly bond between them.
