Chapter 1726: Chapter 1725: Still Not Your Man
Wen Ran chuckled lightly and said cheerfully, “Sure, I’ll go with you.”
“Won’t your Mo Xiuchen stop you from going to fight with me?”
Bai Xiaoxiao glanced towards the door and teased.
Wen Ran pretended to think deeply, “It’s not impossible. If Mo Xiuchen knows I’m going with you to fight, he’ll definitely send Qing Feng and Qing Yang to follow.”
“So lucky, it makes me even more determined to go defeat Xu Wanqi and win back the guy.”
Bai Xiaoxiao’s words made Wen Ran burst into laughter, “Xiaoxiao, Meng Ke is at most your boyfriend, not yet your man, right?”
“Just win him back then.”
Bai Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows indifferently.
“Then let’s go, we can go to the hospital now, and catch lunch there.”
Wen Ran glanced at the time on her wrist and, smiling, pulled Bai Xiaoxiao up from the couch.
“Poor Gu Kai.”
“I never said my brother would cover lunch, we’re going to the hospital because Meng Ke’s treating.”
Wen Ran rolled her eyes at her, freed Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand, and walked briskly to the door, “I’ll go next door and tell Mo Xiuchen.”
Bai Xiaoxiao waved her hand with a smile, “Go ahead, go ahead, everyone knows you and Mo Xiuchen can’t be apart for even a minute like it’s three seasons.”
Responding to Bai Xiaoxiao was Wen Ran’s happy laughter.
Mo Xiuchen was in the meeting room next door.
When Wen Ran walked into the meeting room, Mo Xiuchen turned his head to look at her, “Ranran.”
“I need to go to the hospital with Xiaoxiao now, I can’t have lunch with you.”
Wen Ran moved behind Mo Xiuchen, her slender hands gently massaging his shoulders with a slow and gentle rhythm.
A smile appeared at the corner of Mo Xiuchen’s lips. He raised his hand to capture Wen Ran’s hand and pulled her to sit in his lap, wrapping his long arms around her body.
“Ranran, are you going to the hospital with Xiaoxiao to see Xu Wanqi?”
As he spoke, his breath brushed against Wen Ran’s fair face, and she squinted her eyes, slightly turning her face away, “Well, kind of.”
“Didn’t Meng Ke go to the airport to pick up Xiaoxiao today?”
“No, I guess Xu Wanqi didn’t let him go.”
“You go to the hospital with Xiaoxiao, I’ll come to find you after work.” Mo Xiuchen was accustomed to being with Wen Ran every day, whether working, after work, eating, or sleeping.
Always by her side.
“No need, it’s already eleven now. By the time I get to the hospital, you’ll be off work.”
“I don’t want to eat alone.”
“Alright then, call me when you get off work.”
Mo Xiuchen furrowed his brow, making Wen Ran relent.
Hearing this, Mo Xiuchen lowered his head and kissed her forehead, “I’ll have the driver take you.”

From Haochen to Kangning Hospital, it only takes a little over ten minutes if there’s no traffic.
When Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran arrived at Kangning Hospital, they happened to see Gu Kai leading medical personnel out of the hospital, seemingly to receive an emergency patient.
After exchanging a couple of words, Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao went into the hospital first.
Took the elevator upstairs.
On the floor where Xu Wanqi was staying, as soon as they got out of the elevator, they coincidentally bumped into Xu Wanfei leaving.
Seeing Bai Xiaoxiao, a trace of hatred flashed across Xu Wanfei’s eyes, which quickly vanished as she gave a cold snort.
“Bai Xiaoxiao, you’re here to see Meng Ke, right? He’s feeding Wanqi lunch.”
Xu Wanfei dropped the remark and entered the elevator.
“Xiaoxiao, that woman is Xu Wanqi’s cousin. She seemed to hate you a lot. Do you know her?”
Wen Ran glanced back at the closed elevator, frowning as she looked at Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao said blandly, “Xu Wanfei used to be Xiao Yuting’s girlfriend, but what does she have to hate me for? I was the one being scorned back when she was with Xiao Yuting.”
“That means she still loves Xiao Yuting, and she knows that Xiao Yuting treats you well now.”
Wen Ran speculated on the reason behind the hateful look in Xu Wanfei’s eyes.
Bai Xiaoxiao said nothing, just snorted.
When they arrived outside Xu Wanqi’s ward, it was just as Xu Wanfei said.
Through the glass window, they saw Xu Wanqi leaning against the bedhead, and in front of her, Meng Ke was holding a bowl, spooning soup to Xu Wanqi one spoonful at a time.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze slightly shifted.
As Meng Ke’s girlfriend, seeing him take care of another woman like this still made her a little uncomfortable.
Especially when Xu Wanqi saw them and deliberately let the soup spill from her mouth.
In the next second, Xu Wanqi lifted her injured arm, ready to wipe her mouth.
“Don’t move.”
Meng Ke gently frowned, took a tissue, and wiped Xu Wanqi’s mouth.
Seeing this, even if Bai Xiaoxiao wasn’t angry, Wen Ran was.
She didn’t even bother to knock and directly pushed the door open, “Miss Xu is indeed very lucky.”
Upon hearing Wen Ran’s voice, Meng Ke withdrew his hand that was wiping Xu Wanqi’s mouth, and turned to look toward the door.
When he saw Bai Xiaoxiao standing next to Wen Ran, his face instantly flashed with a myriad of colors.
“Xiaoxiao, why are you here?”
Holding the soup bowl in his other hand, Meng Ke stood up, looking awkwardly at Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze swept over the soup in his hand, and Xu Wanqi on the bed said gently, “Miss Bai, please don’t mind. It’s because my arm is injured and I can’t feed myself. That’s why Senior is feeding me.”
“It’s been so many days, Miss Xu’s arm isn’t better yet?”
Bai Xiaoxiao walked to the bedside, her eyes fixed on Xu Wanqi.
Being ignored, Meng Ke felt extremely awkward and uneasy.
“No, it might take a few more days to heal.” Xu Wanqi’s smile faded, and she lowered her head, her voice tinged with grievance, “I don’t know how I got so unlucky. Just having a meal and watching snow with Senior, and I ran into bad guys. If it wasn’t for Senior, I might not have just injured my arm.”
“Wanqi.”
Meng Ke called her name with a slightly somber expression.
Everyone understood what Xu Wanqi meant.
She was implying that Meng Ke was a hero saving a beauty, her lifesaver.
“So, Meng Ke is Miss Xu’s lifesaver then.”
Bai Xiaoxiao cooperatively said what Xu Wanqi wanted her to say.
Xu Wanqi looked gratefully at Meng Ke, “Yes, if it weren’t for Senior, who knows what those people would have done to me?”
Implying those people might have done unspeakable things to her.
“Since Meng Ke is Miss Xu’s lifesaver and has been taking such good care of her in the hospital, doesn’t Miss Xu owe her life to him in gratitude?”
“Bai Xiaoxiao, you can insult me, but you cannot insult Senior.”
Although Bai Xiaoxiao voiced Xu Wanqi’s inner thoughts, Xu Wanqi unexpectedly got furious instead.
And with the kind of gaze as if Bai Xiaoxiao’s words were unforgivable, “Even though Senior is taking care of me in the hospital, his heart is with you.”
“Xiaoxiao, let’s go outside. I’ll explain to you.”
Meng Ke put down the soup bowl, stepped forward to grab Bai Xiaoxiao’s arm, and said imploringly.
Bai Xiaoxiao gave him a glance, about to refuse, but then heard Wen Ran say, “Xiaoxiao, go with Meng Ke. He must have his reasons for taking care of Miss Xu.”
