“Xiuchen was just worried about you. I don’t think your brother would want to see you like this,” Gu Kai gently spoke, defending his friend.

Reaching out to pat Wen Ran’s shoulder with his expression completely like that of a brother, he whispered, “Go back now. Your brother has nurses who take turns to care for him 24/7. He’s going to be okay.”

Wen Ran nodded and then glanced at Mo Xiuchen, who was walking toward the elevator. “Thank you, Doctor Gu.”

Although Mo Xiuchen was a bit harsh to her just now, she could discern his good intentions. She let it go.

Since her parents had an accident and her brother fell into a coma a week ago, her “friendly” relatives had revealed their true colors. They were nothing but sycophants. In contrast, Gu Kai, a total stranger, encouraged and comforted her again and again.

Seeing her trotting to catch up with Mo Xiuchen at the elevator door and the two of them leaving together, Gu Kai had a thoughtful expression on his face.

On the way back, Mo Xiuchen was silent the entire time. Wen Ran couldn’t keep her mind off her brother and didn’t want to speak either. It was a quiet journey home so to speak.

After being in the hospital for a few hours, when they got home, it was already midnight.


When they went upstairs together, Wen Ran walked very slowly. Although Mo Xiuchen couldn’t pleasure his wife, tonight was their wedding night.

What would they do in the bridal chamber? Talk? Stare at the ceiling?

Wen Ran couldn’t control her imagination from running wild. The more she thought about it, the more nervous she became.

Mo Xiuchen went up to the second floor, turned his head, and saw that she was only halfway up the stairs. He lowered his head and clenched both of his fists. His body was tense, and his eyes narrowed.

He could not decipher what she was thinking, so he said, “Go faster. Uncle Liu had put your suitcase in the master bedroom. If you don’t want to share the bedroom with me, you can choose another room. ”

Wen Ran suddenly raised her head when she heard his words. She looked at the tall man on the second floor with bright eyes. As if afraid that he would change his mind, she quickly replied, “Okay,” and trotted upstairs.

When Mo Xiuchen saw the change of expression in her eyes, a gloomy countenance flashed in his face as he walked toward the master bedroom.

After following him to the master bedroom, Wen Ran saw her luggage at the door of the cloakroom. She didn’t immediately grab it, but instead, she looked at Mo Xiuchen and asked, “Can I really choose the room myself?”


Focusing on her somewhat expectant eyes, Mo Xiuchen calmly stated, “Stay in the second bedroom next to mine. Although the decoration is simpler, it’s better than other rooms.”

They might not be able to sleep together and consume their marriage, but at least their rooms were next to each other.

“Great!”

Wen Ran wanted to choose the third floor, but when she thought of what he had said before, she bit her tongue. She was afraid of putting a foot wrong.

She carried the luggage and walked to the bedroom door. She turned her head and saw Mo Xiu’s tall figure standing in the middle of the luxurious room. The bright crystal light shone on him, but for some reason, it gave him a lonely vibe.

For some strange reason, she felt something in her heart. It was like an urging, and she couldn’t help but say, “Well, if you need anything, you can call me anytime.”

Mo Xiuchen turned to face her, and his eyes locked with hers. The depths of his eyes were deep and gloomy.

Realizing that what she had just said was somewhat inappropriate, a tinge of embarrassment flashed across Wen Ran’s face. She blushed.

This was his home. What could he need her help with?

Mo Xiuchen was staring at her. Wen Ran kind of felt awkward. A surge of emotions came through Mo Xiuchen. Then his lips parted, slightly quivering, and uttered, “You can call me Mo Xiuchen, Xiuchen, or Chen.”
