Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1243: 1242 You can come back

G City

Wen Ran listened to a few sentences of Qin Mu and An Lin’s conversation before hanging up the call.

Thinking that after a while, she would call An Lin back, or wait for An Lin to call again.

No matter for what reason An Lin and Qin Mu had rolled in the sheets, that was their private matter. It was very unethical for her, an outsider, to eavesdrop over the phone.

“Auntie, let’s play doctor.”

On the nearby sofa, Tongtong was fiddling with a stethoscope. Turning her head and seeing Wen Ran had hung up the phone, she happily crawled over from the sofa.

“Tongtong, how about Auntie takes you to the third floor to play with your brothers and sisters?”

Wen Ran looked at the adorable Tongtong, her eyebrows and eyes brimming with a smile.

“Playing doctor.”

Tongtong grabbed Wen Ran’s hand, insistently wanting to play doctor with her. She placed her little hand on Wen Ran’s wrist, pretending to take her pulse with a serious face and no smile.

Wen Ran couldn’t help but chuckle, but did not refuse again, instead she looked at her smilingly.

“Tongtong, have you finished? Is Auntie very healthy?”

Tongtong pretended to take her pulse again and used the stethoscope. Two minutes later, she uttered, “Injection.”

“What illness needs an injection? Tongtong, a doctor can’t just give injections randomly.”

“Auntie, you have joy.”

“Joy?” Wen Ran laughed out loud and gazed at Tongtong with curved eyebrows and eyes, “Tongtong, as a doctor, you can’t talk nonsense.”

“Joy.”

Tongtong raised an eyebrow, responsibly repeating her diagnosis.

Wen Ran listened to her serious tone and looked at her serious and solemn expression, and she just laughed till she collapsed onto the sofa.

“Aiyah, Tongtong, you really are a bundle of joy. You must come to Auntie’s house to play every day. You’re too adorable.”

“Yesterday, I took Miss Tongtong out to the nearby park. She overheard two young ladies chatting next to us; she might have learned it from them.”

The babysitter at the side explained softly.

Wen Ran looked up at her, saw the apologetic expression on her face, and with difficulty contained her laughter, “No wonder, from now on we better not let her hear those topics not suitable for Tongtong. Tongtong, let’s go upstairs and find your brothers and sisters.”

“I’ll pick you up from work at noon.”

The Maybach slowly stopped outside Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory. Gu Kai turned his head and instructed Bai Yiyi, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Bai Yiyi was unbuckling her seatbelt and preparing to get out of the car when she heard him, she turned back in surprise, “Pick me up for what? I can go home on my own.”

“Aunt Bai said that you don’t know how to take care of yourself and asked me to look after Tongtong and you while I’m at it. Ranran is taking Tongtong, so Tongtong will definitely have lunch at her house; there’s no need for you to go home.”

He paused slightly before continuing without waiting for Bai Yiyi to speak, “Not just this noon, but also in the afternoon. From today until Aunt Bai returns, you and Tongtong are under my care, especially your stomach. What you should and shouldn’t eat – don’t torture it.”

Bai Yiyi scoffed.

“It’s my own stomach, I’ll eat whatever I want, it’s none of your business.”

“If it were just you, of course I couldn’t be bothered, but you are Tongtong’s mother. If you keep tormenting your stomach every day, Tongtong will get neglected by you again, and I don’t want to see someone sleep like a pig, leaving Tongtong to stay beside alone like the last time.”

After finishing his statement, Gu Kai unbuckled his own seatbelt and got out of the car.

Bai Yiyi glared angrily, but he walked around the front of the car to the passenger side and opened the door for her like a gentleman.

“Get out.”

“I’m going to have lunch in the cafeteria. You don’t need to come.”

Bai Yiyi got out of the car without thanking Gu Kai and, leaving behind those words, went through the factory gates.

Gu Kai looked at her receding figure, the corners of his mouth slowly curving up into a smile, then turned to get into the car.

Wen Ran was playing with the four little ones on the third floor when An Lin’s call came through again.

“Ranran, I’ve booked a flight to G City, arriving at 2 p.m.”

“Okay, I’ll have Qing Feng pick you up.” She was tied down with the four little ones and couldn’t leave, but Qing Feng was available.

“We’ll talk about the details after I get to G City.”

An Lin’s voice betrayed her unhappiness; she had just reached an understanding with Qin Mu, who had actually demanded, in a domineering manner, that she break up with someone else.

Wen Ran didn’t ask further, and gently said, “Don’t overthink it. You can get some sleep on the plane. Once you’re in G City, there will be a few little ones clamoring for your attention.”

“I know, is Tongtong with you too? I can hear Tongtong’s voice.”

Speaking of the children, An Lin’s voice finally gained a hint of cheer and pleasure. Wen Ran chuckled as she watched the four little ones struggling to push a large ball together, “Yes, Tongtong’s grandma went on a trip today; I’ve brought Tongtong over. They are all having a great time right now.”

“Your place has turned into an amusement park.”

“I have to go, they can’t push the big ball and need my help. We’ll chat more once you’re here.”

Over there, Tongtong, Xin Xin, Momo, and Ziyi were already calling for her help to push the big ball.

“Auntie.”

“Mom.”

“Mom.”

“Mom.”

“Auntie.”

…

The cycle of voices was also heard by An Lin on the other end, and her mood was somewhat lifted by the tender childish voices.

“Cool, you go and join them. I have to start boarding soon.”

Meanwhile, at Haochen Group

Mo Xiuchen also received a call from Qin Mu.

His tall figure leaned back in the executive chair, flipping through documents as he reviewed the financial situation of a potential partner company. Qin Mu’s words, however, made him pause.

His handsome brows furrowed, he asked with disbelief, “Ah Mu, did I hear you right? You and An Lin really got together?”

“An Lin had resigned before. I’m trying to keep her from leaving; she’s reluctant. Mo Xiuchen, do you think you could persuade her to work in G City?”

“Weren’t you not fond of her? Since An Lin doesn’t mind what happened between you two last night, why are you insisting on this? It can’t be that after last night, you’ve found you quite like An Lin, right?”

Mo Xiuchen teased Qin Mu quite wickedly while he was feeling rather dejected.

“You think I’m like you?”

Qin Mu retorted irritably on the phone.

Mo Xiuchen laughed heartily, a calculative glint in his eyes, and readily agreed, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure An Lin stays in G City. However, it won’t work with you two being in different places. Here’s what we’ll do: you come back to G City, and we’ll make other arrangements for City C.”noveldrama

“Really?”

“Of course. We have an abundance of talent at Haochen; it’s time to give others a chance. Once the transfer order is issued, you can come back.”

Mo Xiuchen’s intention in transferring Qin Mu back wasn’t to cultivate a romance between Qin Mu and An Lin, but to stir up some fun for him and Ranran.

Qin Mu and An Lin had gotten together, and certainly, there would be good drama to watch.

Ever since Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng left G City, he had felt it was much quieter. Now, with Qin Mu and An Lin coming back together…
