Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1599: 1598 Don’t anyone call me to work

“Yeah, what’s so important? Don’t waste the lady of the house’s time.”

Little Liu frowned slightly, speaking as he gave Li Fang a look.

Wen Ran glanced at the time on her wrist, saying softly, “If you have nothing to do today, just stay home and keep Nanny Zhang company. We’ll talk again when I get back this afternoon.”

At this point in the conversation, although Li Fang was reluctant, she couldn’t insist.

She had no choice but to agree with a ‘fine’.

The two nannies accompanied Wen Ran, taking the three little ones out. Qing Feng and Qing Yang came up immediately, and outside the villa, Gu Kai’s car was already waiting.

Jinchen was also going with them.

Seeing Jinchen sitting with Tongtong, Wen Ran was initially a bit surprised.

Bai Yiyi smiled and explained, “Jinchen came over early this morning to play with Tongtong. He heard we were going to the amusement park, so he tagged along.”

At the amusement park, the kids had a blast, and during lunch, Wen Ran casually mentioned that Little Liu and Li Fang had come to the house in the morning.

Bai Yiyi curiously asked, “Ranran, how’s that company Li Fang talked about opening? She didn’t come to your house just to discuss starting a company, did she?”

“Start a company? Isn’t Li Fang Little Liu’s wife? What’s she doing starting a company?”

Gu Kai, who was looking after the kids, couldn’t help but look up when he heard their conversation.

His handsome brows furrowed with a hint of confusion.

Wen Ran smiled slightly and explained simply, “Li Fang thinks a job pays a dead salary, so she wants to start her own company and take over Haochen’s business.”

“Did she lose her marbles? Have her come to our hospital’s psychiatric department for a checkup,” Gu Kai said mercilessly.

Bai Yiyi chuckled lightly, “That Li Fang, it’s true she’s something. If she really had the skills to start a company, fine, but she knows nothing; she’s clearly trying to take advantage.”

“Xiu Chen said he’d handle it when he gets back, so I don’t need to worry.”

Wen Ran didn’t want such matters to affect their fun day out, so she changed the subject to talk about other things.

Hearing that Xiu Chen would take care of it eased Gu Kai’s mind.

However, Wen Ran ended up getting home quite late that day because Gu Kai didn’t want her to return early and be bothered by Li Fang.

When she got home, Li Fang and Little Liu had already left.

Mo Xiuchen’s business trip was delayed a few days due to some contract details, extending the originally planned two-week trip to twenty days.

He returned in the early hours of Thursday and insisted on Wen Ran taking Friday off with him, and he even dominantly requested her to spend Saturday and Sunday in a world of their own.

Because along with Jinchen, Momo, Xin Xin, Ziyi, and plus Tongtong, the little ones didn’t bother the adults at all, having a great time playing all day long.

Qin Mu insisted on being discharged after staying in the hospital for more than two months.

On an auspicious day, Mo Xiuchen and the others came to discharge him, and even Luo Haofeng rushed over from City B.

“Ah Mu, now that you’re out, are you going back to work?” Since Qin Mu and An Lin’s place couldn’t accommodate so many people.

Qin Mu was first brought to Mo Xiuchen’s house, where they had lunch before sending them home to rest.

Qin Mu had no objection to this suggestion as it saved his household supplies and spared An Lin from hosting them.

“I’m still a patient.”

Luo Haofeng immediately responded to Qin Mu without a second thought.

Mo Xiuchen raised an eyebrow, his gaze sharp as he looked Qin Mu up and down, “You don’t look like an unhealthy patient at all, Ah Mu. You can totally just get back to overseeing the company.”

“Back to City C?”

Qin Mu rolled his eyes, “Are you really going to let a patient go work in City C? What if my wounds hurt or something happens?”

“So how long do you plan to rest?”

Wen Jin interjected with amusement, raising a handsome eyebrow, humor in his gaze as he looked at Qin Mu.

Qin Mu leisurely took a sip of water from his cup, tilted his chair back some, and settled into a comfortable position. “Last time, Xiu Chen crunched some numbers for me.”

“What numbers?”

Luo Haofeng curiously stared at Qin Mu, forgetting about the cards in his hand.

Mo Xiuchen nudged him with his elbow, prompting Luo Haofeng to look at his cards and play one.

Watching them play cards, Qin Mu nonchalantly said, “Xiu Chen told me that the time I’m taking off now would be deducted from my future vacation time. If I take more months off, I won’t have time off for decades.”

“Haha!”

Luo Haofeng burst into laughter.

Wen Jin’s mouth twitched, while Gu Kai glanced at Mo Xiuchen without saying anything.

“And then?”

Qin Mu raised an eyebrow. “What ‘and then’? If there’s no vacation left for me in the future, I might as well take the whole year off. This year, don’t expect me to work; I’m waiting for An Lin to give birth. After her postpartum confinement, then I’ll think about work.”

“Ah Mu, you’re so clever, I totally support you!”

Luo Haofeng gave him a thumbs up.

Xiu Chen is so insidious and cunning. He and Ah Mu used to be exploited by him regularly, yet now, Ah Mu was rebelling.

“Why are you gloating? Don’t forget that Hao Chen also has your shares—if the company suffers losses, you won’t gain anything,” Mo Xiuchen said indifferently.

Luo Haofeng’s smile froze slightly, “Xiu Chen, does Ah Mu taking a year off really mean the group will lose money? It can’t be that serious, right?”

“It would.”

Mo Xiuchen’s tone was calm, but his expression was utterly serious.

Qin Mu gave him a glance, “Xiu Chen, if you let the group lose money while I’m on leave, don’t blame me.”

“Of course, I’ll blame you. If you take a year off, how could I have the heart to focus on work? Carelessly, mistakes could be made, and that’s everyone’s loss.”

Just as Wen Jin was taking a sip of water, he almost choked on Mo Xiuchen’s words.

Setting down his cup, he said with a laugh, “Xiu Chen, if we didn’t know better, we’d think you and Ah Mu had an unusual relationship. If he takes a break, you can’t work. Then there’s no need for Ranran to work at your company—perfect. She can come to work at the pharmaceutical plant.”

“In your dreams!”

“What ‘in your dreams’? Don’t be so sure. If I talk to Ranran, she might just agree.”

Wen Jin frowned discontentedly. This guy is just too much.

Ranran may be his wife, but she’s still his little sister, isn’t she?

“Isn’t that secretary of yours quite capable, too? Not only is she good at her job, but she’s also caring, comes from a good family. You’re single now; starting an office romance wouldn’t be bad.”

Mo Xiuchen’s comment successfully irked Wen Jin, “Don’t talk nonsense. How could I possibly have any relations with my secretary.”

“Shh, hold on. I got a call!”

Luo Haofeng interrupted the conversation between Mo Xiuchen and Wen Jin, pulling his phone out of his pocket. Seeing the caller, his attractive brows furrowed involuntarily.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, he pressed the answer button with a long finger, “Hello, Mom!”
