“Alright, I am heading to the hospital too, send me a message before you board the plane,” said Gu Kai.
Without saying anything else, Gu Kai said goodbye to Qin Mu and hung up.
“Is Ah Mu back?”
Gu Yan casually asked as he watched Gu Kai ended his call.
“Yes, Ah Mu saw the news online and is getting the earliest flight. He should be here in G City by this afternoon. Dad, let’s go,” said Gu Kai.
“Let’s go!”
Gu Yan nodded and strode towards the door.
Back at the Bai’s residence, Bai Xiaoxiao was dumbstruck by the scandalous news.
Standing next to her, Mother Bai asked with a stunned expression, “Xiaoxiao, is it true about Ranran? Quickly call her and find out what’s going on.”
Still holding the newspaper, Bai Xiaoxiao snapped back to reality at her mother’s words. She grabbed her phone from the table and said, “How can it be true? Someone must be spreading false rumors. The last time Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory and MS Group had health inspections, the only person who had health issues was Mo Xiuchen. To help treat him, Ranran has been accompanying him in taking medication every day…”
“Mo Xiuchen is ill? What illness? Why haven’t you mentioned this before?” asked Mother Bai, looking utterly confused, her well-maintained face filled with astonishment.
The headline news was like a bomb that blasted their minds. Bai Xiaoxiao blinked, showcasing the shock she was experiencing. Initially, this was a private matter between Ranran and Mo Xiuchen. She had never mentioned it to her mother. However, now that it was a headline news, there was no point in hiding it anymore.
“Ranran and Mo Xiuchen have been married for a while and haven’t had kids. Mo Xiuchen was injured before, and I heard about some complications he has been experiencing since then. After that check-up, Ranran has been taking medicines with Mo Xiuchen,” said Bai Xiaoxiao, her hand trembling as she dialed a number. Initially, she wanted to call Wen Ran, but her shaking hand dialed the number right under Wen Ran’s, Luo Haofeng’s.
After the phone rang twice, Luo Haofeng’s voice came through and Bai Xiaoxiao realized her mistake. She quickly glanced at the screen and switched the phone to her other hand, afraid that her mother might see and become angry.
“I meant to call Ranran. I dialed the wrong number by accident,” Bai Xiaoxiao explained rigidly. Before she could hang up, Luo Haofeng said, “There’s no need to call Wen Ran. She left for abroad last night with Mo Xiuchen. They won’t be back for a while.”
“Abroad? Why?” said Bai Xiaoxiao, her eyes wide with surprise, unable to process all the information.
“If you’re calling Wen Ran, that means you saw the newspaper. Mo Xiuchen didn’t want Wen Ran to see it, so he took her away from G City last night. She didn’t bring her phone, so you don’t need to try to contact her for now. Don’t worry, she won’t know about what’s happening in G City,” said Luo Haofeng, sounding calm and deep, unlike his usual carefree self. He paused and added, “I am quite busy at the moment, I’ll call you later. Bye for now.”
Before Bai Xiaoxiao could ask anything, Luo Haofeng had already hung up the phone.
“Xiaoxiao, what happened? Who were you calling?” Mother Bai noticed the dazed look on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face and asked concernedly.
Bai Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, trying to digest Luo Haofeng’s words, her pale and delicate face showing a trace of confusion.
“Mom, let’s go downstairs and watch TV. Mo Xiuchen took Ranran abroad last night, so she can’t see these scandals for now, and we don’t need to worry about her,” said Bai Xiaoxiao.
“I see, it’s good that Ranran hasn’t seen it. These journalists are so harsh, it would upset Ranran if she reads it,” Mother Bai replied.
It was indeed upsetting. Any woman would be distressed if they had to read such news about themselves.
Mother Bai helped Bai Xiaoxiao out of the bedroom and they went downstairs. Bai Xiaoxiao settled into the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
“Mo Xiuchen took Ranran out of the country last night, which means he must have known who fabricated these rumors. In other words, these are not rumor, they are true,” Mother Bai said, calmly analyzing while watching the TV.
Bai Xiaoxiao was still a little dazed. When she heard her mother’s analysis, she paled slightly and wanted to argue that it wasn’t true.
However, all she could say, full of sorrow was, “Yes, maybe it’s not a rumor. Maybe it’s the truth.”
No wonder even at Wen Ran’s birthday party at the Gu’s residence, Gu Yan and Gu Kai didn’t announce her identity publically and she was presented as Mo Xiuchen’s wife. She had been puzzled as to why Gu Kai didn’t announce finding the sister he had searched for so many years. Now she realized, Wen Ran was lost as a child and was only found by the Wen family at the age of six. She must have gone through something in those six years.
Those were the things that both Mo Xiuchen and the Gus didn’t want Ranran to know about.
The news today is not a rumor, it’s the truth they have been trying to hide. Wen Ran is not just the sister Gu Kai had been searching for so many years; she is also the life-saver Mo Xiuchen had been searching for many years.
Given Mo Xiuchen’s feelings for Wen Ran, as soon as he found out about her health condition, he must have thought about how to protect and treat her without letting her know. Bai Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide with sudden realization.
“Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about?” Mother Bai saw the surprise on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face and asked gently.
Bai Xiaoxiao licked her lips, looked at Mother Bai, and said, “Mom, I am touched by Mo Xiuchen. If what’s written in the newspaper is true, then the result of the medical examination was false and Mo Xiuchen is not ill. He was just using this as a way to hide Ranran’s condition and trick her into treatment.”
There was a small smile on Mother Bai’s face, “Ranran is still lucky to have such an excellent man like Mo Xiuchen who cares for her deeply. No matter what happens, he always puts her first. Before the scandal came out, he took her abroad, avoiding these rumors. Even if they can’t avoid them forever, he did it to minimize the harm.”
The TV stations were all broadcasting news about Wen Ran’s background. MS Group, Wen’s Pharmaceutical Factory, and Kangning Hospital were all swarming with journalists.
“Mo Xiuchen was able to leave with Ranran a step ahead, which means he should be able to manage today’s situation and suppress it in the shortest possible time to clarify the rumors.”
On the LCD TV screen, the footage from Kangning Hospital was being shown; Gu Yan and Gu Kai were instantly surrounded by reporters as soon as they got out of their car. The flash of cameras never stopped, and the journalists fired question after question at them.
The father and son appeared even more serious than usual, and their eyes seemed sharper, hinting at a hidden anger, especially Gu Kai. He was always gentle and approachable when facing patients, but when confronted with the journalists’ sharp questions, he was cold and stern.
