Chapter 377: Hold on tight, be careful not to fall off.

“Luo…”

Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly left her wheelchair, with rounded eyes wide open in surprise, staring at the man who just picked her up.

“Hold me tight, be careful not to fall.”

His words were interrupted by Luo Haofeng, who had a gentle and sincere gaze, without any hint of malice. He was simply carrying her upstairs.

Bai Xiaoxiao blinked, her hands softly grasping his clothes.

On the side, Wen Jin watched Luo Haofeng carry Bai Xiaoxiao upstairs with amusement in his eyes.

This was the first time Bai Xiaoxiao had been carried by a man, aside from her father, of course. Accompanying Luo Haofeng’s steps up the stairs, she could clearly hear his steady, powerful heartbeat. The scent she inhaled was a refreshing, masculine aroma that unintentionally made her heart race.

“Ah Kai, that guy, must be over the moon right now. Before he found Wen Ran, he bought her birthday gifts every year. In a while, you’ll see all the birthday gifts from Wen Ran’s first until her twenty-second birthday in that room.”

Luo Haofeng was tall and sturdy, carrying Bai Xiaoxiao as if she was weightless. His tone was steady, unfazed by the effort.

“Really?”

His words made Bai Xiaoxiao forget her embarrassment, and she stared at him in astonishment.

Luo Haofeng glanced down at her, hooking his lips into a smile, “Of course, it’s true. Every year’s gift is different, but no one has seen them.”

“Gu Kai is a really good brother.”

Bai Xiaoxiao remarked with a hint of envy towards Ranran. Wen Jin was also extremely good to her, and now she had Gu Kai too. Even though she was stolen by bad people when she was a kid and had suffered quite a bit, the love she was receiving now made it all worthwhile.

Luo Haofeng’s steps faltered slightly, he chuckled but said nothing.

Upon reaching the second floor, Bai Xiaoxiao hastily said, “Luo Haofeng, put me down and bring up my wheelchair.”

“Why?”

Luo Haofeng frowned, looking at her with a perplexed gaze.

Avoiding his piercing gaze, Bai Xiaoxiao responded somewhat rigidly, “You’ve already carried me upstairs. Bring up my wheelchair. There are many people watching.”

Luo Haofeng smirked, his tone a mixture of mockery, ” Are you worried about Ah Kai seeing, or are you worried about Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran seeing?”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s head shot up.

Facing Luo Haofeng’s mocking gaze, her face paled, “Put me down.”

Luo Haofeng pursed his lips, his arm that was holding her, suddenly let go.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s grip had already loosened, unprepared for Luo Haofeng to suddenly let go, her heart leapt into her throat as her body started falling. Instinctively, her hands tightened around him.

To prevent herself from falling down and getting hurt.

“This is you holding onto me.”

A cold smirk formed in Luo Haofeng’s eyes. He finished talking and carried her towards Gu Kai’s room, continuing their journey.

Bai Xiaoxiao opened her mouth to speak, but the words got stuck in her throat. Her heartbeat still hadn’t calmed down from the scare earlier.

Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran were both in Gu Kai’s room.

Gu Kai was showing her a photo album. It had family photos, from their childhood. Gu Kai was handsome even when he was small. Baby Wen Ran, with her big eyes and fair skin, was very fond of laughing under Gu Kai’s teasing.

“Ranran, this photo was taken three days before you went missing. You were very cute then.”

Gu Kai pointed at the photo and explained to Wen Ran. His handsome face was filled with laughter and fondness. As he spoke, the room’s door was kicked open from the outside.

It was indeed kicked open, as Luo Haofeng had both hands occupied carrying Bai Xiaoxiao and no third hand to open the door. Bai Xiaoxiao was grasping the front of his shirt and hasn’t had time to open the door either.

The three people in the room looked up towards the door.

Seeing Luo Haofeng carrying Bai Xiaoxiao into the room, they were all taken aback.

“No one was with her downstairs, so I brought her up to find you.”

Luo Haofeng looked at Wen Ran and spoke indifferently.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s face was a bit awkward, her laugh was not quite natural, but she still managed to laugh, “Ranran, what are you looking at? Luo Haofeng, you can put me down now.”

Luo Haofeng walked to the sofa, placed Bai Xiaoxiao next to Wen Ran while forcibly making Mo Xiuchen shift aside. She was positioned between Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran.

Originally, Wen Ran was sitting in the middle, with Mo Xiuchen and Gu Kai on either side.

Wen Ran was holding a photo in her hands, with Mo Xiuchen’s arm draped over her shoulder. The distance between her and Gu Kai was slightly more than between her and Mo Xiuchen. In theory, it would be better to place Bai Xiaoxiao between Wen Ran and Gu Kai instead of between her and Mo Xiuchen.

Watching Luo Haofeng’s actions, Gu Kai’s eyes flickered and a faint smile appeared on his face, answering Bai Xiaoxiao’s earlier question, “I’m showing Ranran her childhood photos. Wasn’t Yuting accompanying you? Where is she?”

Luo Haofeng chuckled, “She got tied up by the woman who stripped herself naked attempting to sleep with you. I heard that she even instigated Shen Yuting to seduce Mo Xiuchen.”

Gu Kai frowned, “Shen Yulan?”

He’d encountered quite a few women who thrown themselves at him, but a shameless woman like Shen Yulan was rare indeed. Moreover, she even used her visit to the hospital as an excuse…

“Is there a second woman who stripped naked and wanted you to sleep with her?”

Luo Haofeng’s laugh was enigmatic, “I was wondering why you invited her here, Ah Kai. Don’t tell me you regretted not sleeping with her before, and that’s why you invited her now?”

Mo Xiuchen looked over at Luo Haofeng, glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao, and finally landed his gaze on Gu Kai.

Gu Kai’s face strained with disgust. “I must be mad to invite her. She invited herself. I need to remind Uncle Yang not to let any random people inside next time.”

“Since she’s already here, you can’t just kick her out. Just avoid her later.”

Mo Xiuchen lazily piped in.

“Hmm, that’ll have to do. Ranran, do you want to go downstairs now, or rest for a while before going?”

Gu Kai pondered briefly before asking Wen Ran, who was going through the photo album with Bai Xiaoxiao.

“Let’s wait a bit. Ranran’s eyes are still a bit swollen. And she doesn’t know those people downstairs anyway, so it wouldn’t be interesting for her to be there.”

Mo Xiuchen replied on behalf of Wen Ran. They didn’t want her past exposed, so she didn’t have to deal with those so-called relatives.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked up at them, “If you guys have something to do, you can go ahead. I’ll rest here with Ranran.”

“This is Ah Kai’s room, if you want to rest, you should go to the neighboring room where Wen Ran stays.”

Luo Haofeng’s handsome face was slightly creased, his words carried a trace of dissatisfaction.
