Chapter 254: 253 Love, Heartache
Wen Ran’s heartbeat thundered, her sweet and seductive voice spilling from her crimson lips. Her lingering consciousness told her, this was his office, she couldn’t allow him to do as he pleased.
After more than an hour, everything finally returned to tranquility.
The two of them emerged together from the rest room. MO Xiuchen sat Wen Ran on his office chair, his smile at the corner of his lips revealing contented happiness.
Wen Ran protested a few times only to be disregarded. She gave up struggling, nestling wearily in his arms, tilting her small face upwards, gazing at his handsome face that could cause hearts to flutter.
“MO Xiuchen, you just mentioned earlier, were you really ill before?”
From Wen Ran’s flushed face, awash with lingering passion, came a gentle voice tinged with concern and heartache. After they had consummated their marriage, she had wondered if he had lied in the past.
She thought, perhaps he had spread such rumors as a means of self-protection when he was young, to lessen Xiao Wenqing’s intention of getting rid of him.
MO Xiuchen, one hand on the mouse and the other around her waist, was helping her with work. Upon hearing her words, he paused in his mouse movements, lowered his gaze to meet her tender concern-filled eyes, softness filling his heart. “Yes, when I was kidnapped by Xiao Wenqing, he injured me instead of taking my life.
His voice was calm, revealing no emotion. Yet it caused a painful twinge in
Wen Ran’s heart as she instinctively tightened her hold on his strong hand.
MO Xiuchen gave a slight smile, gently saying, “Ranran, don’t be upset. All those things are in the past. At that time, when the hospital results came back, I truly thought, I would remain that way for the rest of my life.”
“MO Xiuchen, stop talking.”
Watching him smile as he bared his wounds, Wen Ran’s heart clenched, her other hand moving to cover his mouth. The hint of tears in her clear and expansive eyes confirmed her pain.
MO Xiuchen remained silent, just quietly staring at her, her shining tears making him clutch his heart, but ultimately, what he felt the most was happiness.
No matter what he had experienced in his childhood, no matter how maliciously Xiao Wenqing had wanted to kill him, he still managed to survive until now.
The most important thing was, when he was on the brink of death, he had met her. From then on, she was the most profound warmth stored in his heart, through all those lonely and cold years.
For her, he persisted. Amid Xiao Wenqing’s scheming, he not only became strong but also ended up out of Xiao Wenqing’s grasp.
He had always been steadfast in his belief that one day he would find her. Even though numerous women had pretended to be her, he never believed they were truly her.
Not until he met her at that banquet, hearing her voice as clear as spring water, seeing her smile as warm as sunlight, he suddenly felt, she was the girl he had been searching for all this while.
He intently looked at her, couldn’t help but lower his head, tenderly kissing her moist eyes, whispering softly, “Ranran, don’t be sad. I have you now. That’s enough.”
Wen Ran didn’t want to be upset, but his comforting words made her tears fall.
She wrapped her arms tightly around his muscular waist, unable to verbalize her emotions. Only if you love someone to the depths of your heart would you feel distressed over the hardship they had endured in the past.
More than once, she had wished she could travel back in time to his lonely childhood, to accompany him through those difficult years.
But no matter how much she wished, she could never make up for her absence. All she could do now was to be by his side every second of the present and future.
“Ranran!”
MO Xiuchen lifted her face, gently wiped her tears away with his long fingers. He was keenly aware of her anguish and love, but he was at a loss for words.
He just kept softly calling her name, trying to soothe her sorrow.
“MO Xiuchen, I want to bear your child, no, not one, two. We want a boy and a girl, alright?”
Wen Ran’s eyes were even clearer and brighter after her crying, her determined gaze reflected his handsome face. Her hands still held him, her petite face upturned, gazing intently at him.
She wanted to bear him two children, so that he would no longer be alone.
Just now, he said ‘he was fine as long as he had her’, but she felt that she was not enough, they needed to have a child, a token of their love. Each child was an angel sent by God, able to bring him more happiness and joy.
“Ranran, I worry…”
MO Xiuchen’s eyes flickered, his thin lips tight, his words hesitant and concerned.
Wen Ran’s expression changed subtly, seemingly understanding his implication, she quickly cut him off, pretending to be lighthearted, “What are you worried about? I’ll be the one giving birth not you, you just need to prepare to be a father. Don’t think about those past events anymore. Now you’re healthy and fit, we will definitely have children.”
“Yes, we will definitely have children.”
MO Xiuchen held her tightly in his arms, his forehead rested on her hair. He tried to suppress his rolling emotions, silently repeating her words, ‘We will definitely have children.”‘
It seems that even if he didn’t mind, Ranran did. Her words had overturned his initial decision. He must talk to Gu Kai and figure out a way..
