Chapter 454: 453 Let Wen Ran deliver it to the door

Xiao Wenqing called Cheng Jia again, one week later.

Not only in G City, but the entire network, knew she was a wanted criminal now. She wasn’t daring enough to leave her house.

“Cheng Jia, have you found out where Wen Ran is?”

Xiao Wenqing sat on the sofa, a law program playing on the LCD screen.

“I’ve found out. Mo Xiuchen took her abroad to Paris the night before last. They have had no contact with the outside world. Wen Ran is completely unaware of everything that’s happening in G City.”

Cheng Jia’s voice, resonating across the Pacific Ocean, made Xiao Wenqing’s eyes chill. Mo Xiuchen had taken Wen Ran away just the previous night and fled overseas. No wonder they weren’t spotted anywhere these days.

“Do you know where she is in Paris?”

Xiao Wenqing suppressed the anger in her heart and asked coldly.

“Only they know their whereabouts,” Cheng Jia said, unable to hide a note of jealousy in her voice. Every time she thought about Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran together, being so engrossed in each other, she felt a strong urge to kill out of jealousy.

“Mrs Mo, if you want Wen Ran, there’s a simple way. Wen Ran will come on her own.”

There was a pause before Cheng Jia started suggesting the idea. She hoped more than anybody else for Wen Ran to disappear. If Wen Ran disappeared, she would have a chance with Mo Xiuchen.

“What’s the strategy?”

Xiao Wenqing was now completely confused as the police were searching for her worldwide. She didn’t dare to leave her house.

“Wen Ran has a close friend named Bai Xiaoxiao. You should be aware of her, Mrs. Mo.”

Cheng Jia chuckled on the other end of the line before saying calmly.

“Bai Xiaoxiao? Of course I know. If it wasn’t for her last time, maybe Wen Ran would have died already. You mean I should kidnap Bai Xiaoxiao, make Wen Ran come to rescue her, and have her obediently deliver herself to me?”

Xiao Wenqing was not a fool. It was just that she had been blinded by hatred, and completely focused on Wen Ran, leading her to overlook this viable strategy. Because Bai Xiaoxiao had a car accident in the past, Wen Ran would certainly not ignore her plight.

“Alright, I’ll arrange it. While it’s impossible to get my hands on Wen Ran with Mo Xiuchen’s protection, Bai Xiaoxiao is a different story.”

“Hmm, then I wish Mrs. Mo all the best in achieving her goal soon.”

Cheng Jia’s voice became lighter, and she chuckled.

Bali Island.

By the time Mo Xiuchen got a call from Luo Haofeng, he and Wen Ran had already been living there for nearly twenty days.

During Wen Ran’s menstrual cycle, they didn’t go far. After her period, they went to other scenic spots for amusement. That night, they returned to the hotel, it was already past nine.

Wen Ran went to take a bath in the bathroom, and he switched on his mobile phone.

As soon as he turned it on, there were numerous missed call alerts. Before he could check who had called, his phone buzzed continuously.

Mo Xiuchen pressed the answer key with his long fingers, his eyes glanced towards the bathroom as his low voice floated from his thin lips: “Hello, Ah Feng.”

“Xiuchen, something’s happened.”

The moment he finished talking, Luo Haofeng’s anxious voice rang through. Mo Xiuchen’s eyes changed abruptly, his handsome eyebrows knitted in a frown: “What happened?”

“Xiaoxiao has been kidnapped.”

“When did this happen?”

Mo Xiuchen’s tall figure stood up from the sofa, his gaze shifted towards the bathroom. The door of the bathroom was tightly closed, and the faint sound of running water could be heard from inside. He walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window, listening to Luo Haofeng on the other end of the line: “This afternoon, while she was on her way home from the hospital, she was abducted. I got a call from Xiao Wenqing an hour ago. She told me that if we want Xiaoxiao back safely, we would have to hand over Wen Ran.”

Towards the end, there was some hesitation in Luo Haofeng’s voice.

“Xiao Wenqing?”

A savage and brutal glare erupted in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes. It was the same woman again. Even though she was now a fugitive, she could still make so many things happen.

“Exactly, it’s Xiao Wenqing. She warned us that if we call the police, we will never see Xiaoxiao again.”

“Ah Feng, give Lu Zhiyan a call. I’ll book the flight tickets right away. Wen Ran and I will return tomorrow. If Xiao Wenqing calls again, first confirm her location.”

Mo Xiuchen’s gaze was as dark as ink, and his voice deep and cold.

“Xiuchen, Bai Xiaoxiao’s parents are very worried, I’ll inform them first.”

There was a moment of silence over the phone, Luo Haofeng changed his words at the last moment.

“Good!”

Mo Xiuchen responded indifferently.

When Wen Ran came out from the bathroom, she saw Mo Xiuchen leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, his figure tall and erect. He was staring out with an absent-minded look.

Even when she was out, he didn’t notice.

“Xiuchen!”

Wen Ran smiled faintly and walked towards him.

Upon hearing her voice, Mo Xiuchen regained his senses and slowly turned around. His usually somber eyes were soft and affectionate when they fell on Wen Ran, “Ranran, have you finished bathing?”

“Yes!”

Wen Ran smiled at him.

“Come here, let me help you.”

Mo Xiuchen gestured for her to come over. Wen Ran obediently walked over and stood in front of him obediently. He took the towel from her hand and began to pat her hair dry.

“Ranran, do you know how many days we’ve been out?”

Mo Xiuchen’s voice echoed in her ear. Wen Ran laughed and lifted her eyes to gaze into his deep ones, “Including the time on the plane, it’s been twenty days.”

“Ranran, do you miss home?”

Mo Xiuchen looked at her intently, his movements gentle.

Wen Ran was taken aback, staring at the handsome face of Mo Xiuchen that was sporting a grim smile. Instead of answering, she asked, “Xiuchen, did something happen in G City, or something went wrong with the MS Group?”

She had mentioned going back a couple of days ago, but Mo Xiuchen had said they could play for a few more days.

So now, when he suddenly asked her if she missed home, she had a feeling that something must have happened.

“Come on, let me dry your hair first.”

Mo Xiuchen smiled slightly, avoiding Wen Ran’s question. He wrapped one arm around her shoulders, half-pushing, half-carrying her towards the dressing table.

“Xiuchen, are you keeping something from me?”

Wen Ran was pressed into a chair by Mo Xiuchen, her sleek eyebrows furrowing. She looked at Mo Xiuchen with doubtful eyes. She had always been keenly attuned to him, as long as he gave little away, she would sense it.

And now was no different.

“Ranran, I’ll tell you after I blow dry your hair, okay?”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes flickered.

He was very aware of the importance of Bai Xiaoxiao to Wen Ran. This was something he couldn’t hide. Even if he kept her in the dark and managed to rescue Bai Xiaoxiao safely, she would eventually blame him.

That being the case, he couldn’t keep it from her. He could only delay telling her as long as possible, ensuring that she was worried for at least a minute less.

Seeing Mo Xiuchen’s slightly forced smile, Wen Ran unconsciously crossed her hands in front of her, pursed her lips, and said softly, “Okay, then be quick and blow dry my hair.”

“Hmm!”

A trace of heartache flickered in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, and the voice that flowed from his lips was tender and deep.
