Chapter 731: 730 if you are not willing

A fleeting surprise flickered in Wen Ran’s gaze.

Meeting Zhou Lin’s expectant, partially nervous gaze, she inwardly sighed.

It seems, Zhou Lin, despite spending most of the year abroad, still hasn’t forgotten Mo Zixuan.

Her return may also be because of Mo Zixuan.

“I’m busy tomorrow,” she said, her voice languid, devoid of any discernible emotion.

Disappointed, Zhou Lin lowered her gaze, but quickly looked up again.

Her smile hinted at a plea, “Ranran, how about the day after tomorrow or anytime your free. Just give me a call.”

Wen Ran slightly frowned, Bai Xiaoxiao directly chided, “Zhou Lin, Ranran already said she’s very busy. She doesn’t have time. Why are you still pestering her? If I’m not mistaken, you’re contacting Ranran because of Mo Zixuan, right? He nearly killed Ranran, do you think Ranran can forgive him?”

Zhou Lin blanched at Bai Xiaoxiao’s words.

Seeing Wen Ran biting her lip, remaining silent.

She wanted to explain, but Bai Xiaoxiao had already pulled Wen Ran past her, heading straight into the hospital.

“Ranran, given how badly Mo Zixuan hurt you, you mustn’t go soft because of Zhou Lin.”

Entering the hospital, Bai Xiaoxiao kept urging, fearing that Wen Ran would relent and comply with Zhou Lin’s request.

Wen Ran looked at Bai Xiaoxiao’s animated expression due to rage and felt warmed by her concern, but also felt a sourness for herself.

“After such a direct rejection earlier, I don’t think she would have the audacity to come asking me again. Moreover, for the matter of Mo Zixuan, I don’t have the final say. Hence, even if she pleads, it’ll be futile.”

Mo Zixuan had set fire to a pharmaceutical factory causing devastating loss.

He nearly burned her brother and Professor Li, even if Zhou Lin pleaded, she could never forgive Mo Zixuan.

Bai Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of relief, “Good, that it would be futile.”

The two of them carried the fruits, took the elevator upstairs, and arrived at Qin Mu’s ward, where Gu Kai was already present.

Seeing them enter, he stood up and welcomed them with a smile.

Taking the bag of fruits from Bai Xiaoxiao, “Ranran, Xiaoxiao, it’s a good time for you guys to be back. I was just telling Qin Mu, we are waiting for you both to return for dinner.”

Qin Mu sat on the sofa, not standing up. But when his gaze met Wen Ran’s his handsome face tinged with a light smile.

He speared a smile, “Gu Kai mentioned earlier that you both would return in the afternoon.”

After Gu Kai finished his call with Wen Ran, he had entered the operating room. Only after the surgery ended, did he come to inform Qin Mu.

Wen Ran filled a plate with some plums and loquats to wash them for tasting.

To have Qin Mu and Gu Kai taste them, “Brother, Qin Mu, give it a try. These plums are plucked by me while the peaches, by Xiaoxiao.”

Qin Mu took a plum to taste and Gu Kai, a peach. He said with a sigh, “In previous years, we used to go countryside during this season to spend our weekends. This year would have been no different, if not for all the incidents…”

Brother, if you wish, this weekend, you can go to countryside and stay for a couple of days. Picking fruits and eating them directly feels really different from buying and eating from a supermarket.”

Wen Ran teased knowingly that Gu Kai was too busy to have any leisure time. Her word was as if poking at his sore spot.

Gu Kai frowned in annoyance, complaining, “When did I have a weekend? I’m on call all year round.”

“Wen Ran, are you going to City C to work after returning this time?”

Qin Mu took a bite of the plum and then held it without eating further.

Seeing him wrinkle his brows due to the sourness of the plum, she smiled and offered him a peach, “Qin Mu, try this instead. These plums are not fully ripe yet. Some are sour. If you are not fond of sour food, better not have this.”

Gu Kai had a faint smile in his eyes, grinning, “Ranran, Qin Mu used to love sour foods, don’t mind him.”

“Really?”

Wen Ran was a bit surprised looking at Qin Mu. It was generally girls who like sour food, it was rare for men to do so.

Qin Mu just smiled at her without speaking.

He ate the rest of the plum in one bite. Despite the obvious sourness, he endured it.

After swallowing, the handsome face maintained the same smile.

Bai Xiaoxiao was clueless. Thinking Qin Mu truly liked plums, she said, “Ranran, since Qin Mu likes plums, let him eat. You brought back so many plums, if no one helps, when will you finish them? Gu Kai, aren’t you eating?”

She picked two and handed them to Qin Mu and Gu Kai.

Gu Kai was shaking his head, “I’m not interested in this. I’ll stick to the peach. By the way, when you guys came back, where is Ah Feng? Didn’t he come with you?”

Mentioning Luo Haofeng, Bai Xiaoxiao’s smile stiffened a bit.

Wen Ran subtly signaled Gu Kai, while Qin Mu interrupted, “Haochen has been quite busy. Ah Feng went back to work a few days ago.”

“How clever of Qin Mu. Brother, you’re treating Luo Haofeng as some idle playboy.”

She grinned and changed the subject, “Weren’t you guys waiting for me and Xiaoxiao to have dinner? Brother, can we leave now?”

Seeing Gu Kai in his white coat, Wen Ran feared if he was still on duty.

Gu Kai tugged lightly at his white coat, he raised his brow, “We can leave at any time. Give a call to Wen Jin as well.”

“Sure.”

Wen Ran assented and dialed Wen Jin.

Wen Jin had a dinner appointment in the evening. Hearing that she’s back, he immediately said he’d cancel his appointment and join them for dinner.

“Brother, Is Sister Ting on duty? Shall we invite her as well?”

After the call, Wen Ran asked Gu Kai.

“She’s on duty, but Jiang Liu picks her up and drops her daily.”

Gu Kai mentioning Jiang Liu, his tone changed a bit. He was worried that Wen Ran, upon seeing Jiang Liu’s face, would be reminded of Mo Xiuchen and be distressed.

Hence, he only asked her to call Wen Jin, didn’t mention Shen Yuting.

Wen Ran understood Gu Kai’s concerns.

However, she couldn’t exclude Jiang Liu just because his face bore some resemblance to Mo Xiuchen.

She casually said, “Brother, since Jiang Liu comes to pick up Sister Ting daily, let’s invite him as well.”

“Okay, you call the shots tonight.”

Gu Kai then turned to Qin Mu, who was still in his hospital gown. “Qin Mu, aren’t you going to change?”

Qin Mu’s eyes glinted, “No rush. Changing only takes a minute.”

With Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao still in the ward, how could he change? He shot a sidelong glance at Gu Kai.

Wen Ran peered over at Qin Mu, then pulled Bai Xiaoxiao to her feet. “Xiaoxiao, accompany me downstairs to find Sister Ting. Brother, Qin Mu, hurry up and come down. We’ll be waiting for you.”

Bai Xiaoxiao had been daydreaming and was startled when Wen Ran suddenly pulled her to her feet. She gave a dazed nod and let Wen Ran lead her out of the ward.
