FLASH MARRIAGE: HE IS A WIFE-PAMPERING ADDICT

Chapter 818: Why are you being so overbearing?

“Miss Bai, who is this gentleman?”

This time, it was Meng Ke who asked. Bai Xiaoxiao’s face flashed with embarrassment. She was about to speak when Luo Haofeng cut in ahead of her, “I am Xiaoxiao’s ex-boyfriend.”

Wen Ran was being led away by Mo Xiuchen when she heard Luo Haofeng’s words and instinctively turned her head. However, she had only turned halfway when a large hand twisted her head back. Mo Xiuchen pressed her down into a seat at a large round table. Bending his tall body slightly, he looked at her with deep, profound eyes and said word by word,

“Ranran, from now on, don’t accompany Bai Xiaoxiao on blind dates.”

Wen Ran stared at Mo Xiuchen in astonishment.

She wanted to ask, how do you know I’m accompanying Bai Xiaoxiao on blind dates, and isn’t it okay for me to have my own blind dates?

Seeing her confused face, Mo Xiuchen’s lips couldn’t help but curl up slightly. He pulled out a chair in front of her, sat down, and explained slowly: “I don’t want you accompanying her on blind dates, only to end up getting yourself a boyfriend.”

“I…”

Wen Ran frowned. They weren’t in a relationship now, so what did it matter if she found a boyfriend? Couldn’t he just find himself a girlfriend?

Mo Xiuchen seemed to see through her internal thoughts. He furrowed his brows and said seriously, “Even if you don’t come back to me, I won’t allow you to be with any other man.”

“Why are you so domineering?” Wen Ran murmured softly, lowering her eyelashes.

“I am domineering. I will wait for you to open up your heart patiently, but I will not allow any other man to take advantage of your vulnerability,” Mo Xiuchen said with a deep gaze, not hiding his feelings for her at all.

Wen Ran pursed her lips and spoke softly, “That man is Xiaoxiao’s date, what are you thinking about?”

Mo Xiuchen chuckled softly and ruffled her hair: “I’m not overthinking; I am just being precautious.”

Over there, Meng Ke’s expression changed several times after hearing that Luo Haofeng was Bai Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend. Seeing Bai Xiaoxiao’s embarrassed face, he felt a complex mix of emotions but said gentlemanly: “Miss Bai, if you’re not interested in me, there’s no need to force yourself.”

“Mr. Meng, you and Xiaoxiao are indeed not suitable. Xiaoxiao, let’s go.”

Seeing Mo Xiuchen taking Wen Ran away, Luo Haofeng also wanted to follow suit and extended his hand to pull Bai Xiaoxiao away.

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaoxiao was not Wen Ran, and he was not Mo Xiuchen.

Bai Xiaoxiao dodged his hand, and his handsome face darkened a degree as she looked at him with a fake smile, “Mr. Luo, we are no longer involved, please don’t disturb me.”

“Xiaoxiao!”

Luo Haofeng’s handsome face turned pale, and a flash of pain crossed his long, almond-shaped eyes. He pursed his lips and said awkwardly, “About that night, it wasn’t what you think. Listen to my explanation.”

“You’re overthinking it. I’m not interested in your affairs.” Bai Xiaoxiao finished speaking, no longer looking at Luo Haofeng, turned to Meng Ke and said, “Meng Ke, if you’re willing, we can try dating.”

A flicker of surprise crossed Meng Ke’s eyes before he quickly replied with a smile, “Alright!”

Luo Haofeng’s complexion grew even darker.

Seeing the atmosphere turn tense, Gu Kai, standing beside him, spoke up gently, “Ah Feng, Xiuchen and Ranran have already left; let’s go over as well.”

He knew that Luo Haofeng was feeling down; watching the woman he liked go on a blind date with another man would not make anyone happy. Moreover, Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t seem to have a bad attitude towards that man. Although he hadn’t seen her face, from the man’s spirited way of talking, their blind date seemed to go well.

“`

But Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao had already broken up, and it was he who initiated it. Now, he truly had no right to stop Bai Xiaoxiao. Moreover, he had made a scene with Qi Meiling these past two days.

Gu Kai looked at him with some sympathy. Luo Haofeng’s thin lips were tightly pressed together, his narrow gaze lingering on Bai Xiaoxiao for a long while before he withdrew his eyes and turned to leave without a word.

Gu Kai gave Bai Xiaoxiao a gentle smile and followed suit.

Bai Xiaoxiao watched Luo Haofeng’s proud retreating figure, her heart inexplicably aching. She subconsciously pursed her lips, forcing herself to look away. Seeing Meng Ke smiling amiably and looking at her with gentle eyes, she felt a twinge of guilt, “Don’t mind what just happened.”

“I don’t mind. Shall we continue dining?”

Meng Ke asked with a smile, his tone seeking and probing.

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded and sat down again.

At another table two spaces away, Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran, Gu Kai, and Luo Haofeng had ordered their food. Seeing Luo Haofeng’s gloomy expression, Wen Ran said gently, “Luo Haofeng, when you broke up with Xiaoxiao, shouldn’t you have expected this day? Why be so angry?”

“Ranran is right. Xiaoxiao can’t possibly stay single and never date or marry someone else after breaking up with you. You weren’t this angry before,” Gu Kai added.

Mo Xiuchen gazed at Luo Haofeng with profound eyes, his lips curving into a faint smile as he slowly spoke, “Before, he hadn’t broken up with Bai Xiaoxiao, so even if she went on blind dates, he wasn’t afraid. Now that he has no relation with Bai Xiaoxiao, of course, he fears she might grow fond of another man. If you like Bai Xiaoxiao, why break up with her? Could it be, it’s because of that woman called Qi Meiling?”

Gu Kai’s mouth twitched violently.

It seemed Mo Xiuchen had set his sights on Qi Meiling; otherwise, why would he keep poking at Luo Haofeng’s sore spot?

“I have nothing to do with Qi Meiling; she just slept in my guest room that night.”

Luo Haofeng said, somewhat annoyed. He also felt it was strange; it wasn’t the first time he had seen Bai Xiaoxiao on a blind date, but why was it that this time he felt particularly infuriated, as though a giant stone weighed on his chest, causing unbearable suffocation.

“That night? Haofeng, have you and Qi Meiling spent the night together?” Mo Xiuchen asked, puzzled.

Luo Haofeng felt like spitting blood and glared fiercely at Mo Xiuchen, “You and Cheng Jia cohabited for over two months, yet Ranran never misunderstood you. In the end, she just doesn’t trust me.”

“How could I be the same as you? It must be your bad reputation, right, Ranran?” Mo Xiuchen said, glancing over at Wen Ran.

Wen Ran met Mo Xiuchen’s smiling eyes and frowned, “What’s that got to do with me? I didn’t see how you and Cheng Jia spent those months, nor did I see how Luo Haofeng and Qi Meiling spent their time.”

She wasn’t helping either of them.

When Wen Ran said this, Mo Xiuchen immediately lost his smile and looked at her seriously, “Ranran, don’t you trust me?”

“I didn’t say I don’t trust you.”

Despite everything, Wen Ran still felt somewhat displeased. Even though Mo Xiuchen’s demeanor toward Cheng Jia wasn’t good and he didn’t like her, they had still spent over two months together.

Especially that day when Cheng Jia talked about how she had taken care of Xiuchen.

As she listened to Cheng Jia’s words, it felt like needles were pricking her heart, the pain so intense she couldn’t breathe. She kept telling herself to just think of Cheng Jia as one of those caregivers or nannies.

But even so, it still hurt.
