Chapter 364: 363 Jealousy

Translator: 549690339

Mo Xiuchen, with his handsome, clean-cut features and detached expression, glanced at the medicine in his hand, then looked up at Wen Ran. He said softly, “Ranran came with me, so it’s enough for both of us.”

The one in Shen Yuting’s pocket suddenly clenched tight.

As he spoke, his voice was low and gentle, answering her question, but his gaze was fixed to the side on Wen Ran.

“Ranran, you’re so good to Xiuchen.”

Shen Yuting tried to make her smile look natural, warm.

She suppressed the deep-seated envy of Wen Ran from the pit of her stomach, even though she was her cousin. She couldn’t stop herself from being jealous of her happiness.

The depth of her love for Mo Xiuchen was equal to the effort needed to control her jealousy towards Wen Ran.

Yesterday, after hearing Gu Kai talk about Wen Ran’s situation, she even felt a bit despondent. Because Gu Kai said that Wen Ran’s situation wasn’t that terrible, taking medication could cure it.

Inwardly, she hoped that Wen Ran’s illness would prove incurable. If she could never bear children in her lifetime, perhaps, the opportunity would arise for her.

At the thought, she herself was startled and hastily suppressed the sentiment. She repeatedly told herself not to have such thoughts. Ranran was her cousin, not some other woman.

“Xiuchen is my husband, it’s only expected that I treat him well.”

Wen Ran smiled happily and contentedly as if she wasn’t accompanying Mo Xiuchen in taking medicine, but instead doing something joyous together.

Shen Yuting couldn’t bear to watch anymore and quickly excused herself under a random pretense.

In the elevator, she bumped into a close colleague. After exchanging greetings, the colleague asked her, “Yuting, is it true that Mo Xiuchen has fertility problems according to yesterday’s physical checkup results?”

Shen Yuting seemed lost, not hearing her colleague’s words.

The colleague nudged her, breaking her from her daze, she looked at the colleague blankly, “Sister Wang, what’s wrong?”

Sister Wang asked with concern, “What are you zoning out about? Are you feeling sorry for Mo Xiuchen? Despite him being so attractive and wealthy, he also has a hard life. He was impotent before, and now, he’s unable to reproduce. Yuting, to tell you the truth, it might have been a lucky thing that you didn’t end up with Mo Xiuchen. You should let it go.”

“Sister Wang, what are you talking about, Xiuchen and I are just friends.”

Shen Yuting’s eyes flickered, she explained stiffly.

Sister Wang chuckled, “I know you too well, not just me, but the entire hospital knows about your feelings for him. When you were overseeing abroad, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran got married. All the sisters in our department felt it was such a waste for you; they all questioned Mo Xiuchen’s judgement for marrying his brother’s ex-girlfriend instead of someone as good as you.”

The news that Wen Ran was Mo Zixuan’s ex-girlfriend spread at the time of Mo Xiuchen’s and Wen Ran’s wedding.

“Wen Ran is pretty good.”

Shen Yuting lowered her eyes, nobody in the hospital knew that Wen Ran was Gu Kai’s sister yet.

“To me, she’s nothing compared to you. However, she’s young, beautiful and knows how to play the weak in front of men. Not only does Mo Xiuchen like her, but even Doctor Gu treats her exceptionally well. Then there’s Qin Mu, who’s usually pretty aloof but his eyes become gentle when he looks at Wen Ran.”

“Sister Wang, don’t spread rumors.”

Shen Yuting was startled, she quickly raised her previously lowered head.

The elevator doors opened at this time, Sister Wang smiled ambiguously, grabbed her arm affectionately and said, “There’s no outsider here, I’m not just randomly talking. Come, let’s go to my office, and I’ll tell you what I witnessed.”

Shen Yuting was dragged out of the elevator by Sister Wang who led her to her office.

In the office, the other colleagues had not yet arrived. Sister Wang poured Shen Yuting a cup of hot water and sat down beside her.

Shen Yuting’s thoughts lingered on Sister Wang’s previous words about Qin Mu’s gentle gaze towards Wen Ran.

Qin Mu!

She suddenly remembered that the afternoon she returned, Qin Mu had gone to the city where his father worked. Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng said that Qin Mu went back home to meet a prospective spouse

She didn’t believe it at that time and said that even if everyone went on blind dates, Qin Mu wouldn’t obediently go. If he wanted to go on a blind date, he would have done so earlier.

But her cousin also said that Qin Mu really went back to meet a potential mate. They also found it strange.

Yes, Qin Mu has always hated arranged dates the most. He would avoid the potential spouses his mother found for him whenever he could. Why would he willingly walk into one?

“In the past few days, Qin Mu was the one picking up and dropping off Wen Ran at the hospital. One time, I saw him unintentionally, standing at the elevator, his eyes softly gazing at the corridor until Wen Ran entered the sickroom. He still remained even after she was gone.”

Sister Wang recounted the scene she witnessed that day.

“Sister Wang, Qin Mu and Xiuchen are good friends, same with Wen Ran, it’s normal for him to send her to the hospital. He watched her enter the sickroom because he cares about her safety.”

Shen Yuting laughed off the explanation. It seemed like she really didn’t care, but doubts started to rise in her heart. Could Qin Mu actually be in love with Wen Ran?

So that’s why. He went for that blind date.

“Like I’ve said, you can’t fool me with your gazes. Whether it’s the way you look at Mo Xiuchen or the way Qin Mu looks at Wen Ran, there’s admiration in those looks. If you don’t believe my words, pay attention next time; I’m positive Qin Mu likes Wen Ran.”

Suppressing her doubts, Shen Yuting softly said, “Sister Wang, whether Qin Mu likes Wen Ran or not, don’t tell anyone about this, especially my cousin and Xiuchen.”

The fact that Qin Mu went back for a blind date obviously means he doesn’t want anyone to know about his feelings for Wen Ran.

“Rest assured, I haven’t told anyone about this. I’m only telling you because it’s you. Yuting, let me speak honestly, please don’t get angry, alright?”

Sister Wang patted Shen Yuting’s immaculate hand affectionately, like a true older sister.

Shen Yuting gave a faint smile, “Sister Wang, just say whatever it is you want to say.”

“We women should be capable, it’s good. It’s also good to be strong and independent, but we can’t always put up a strong front. When it’s time to show weakness, you should show weakness, especially in front of men. Your problem is you’re too capable, it doesn’t give the men around you a chance to pity you.”

Shen Yuting’s eyes flickered, she had to admit that Sister Wang’s words did make some sense. She had always been very independent.

“Look at Wen Ran; she appears as a feeble girl. Her every furrow and smile are capable of tugging a man’s heart, especially for domineering men like Mo Xiuchen, they fall for this type behavior.”

“Is that so?”

Shen Yuting awkwardly pulled at the corners of her mouth. Mo Xiuchen’s affection for Wen Ran had nothing to do with her being weak.

“Of course it is, I have experience in this field. Follow my advice and you’ll see, whatever man you want, you’ll be able to catch him.”
