Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1643: Chapter 1642: Secret

The three of them walked together.

The spacious sidewalk was wide enough for the three of them to walk side by side.

To facilitate conversation, Luo Haofeng walked on Bai Xiaoxiao’s right, while Meng Ke walked on her left.

He turned back to glance at the long line of cars behind them and said lazily, “I’ve been stuck in the car for too long. I thought I’d get out and walk, didn’t expect you two to do the same.”

As he spoke, Luo Haofeng glanced again at the gift in Meng Ke’s hand, “What gifts did you buy for Ziyi, Momo, and Xinxin?”

“Secret,”

Bai Xiaoxiao followed his gaze to Meng Ke’s gift and smiled playfully.

Luo Haofeng seemed surprised at Bai Xiaoxiao’s response, a hint of astonishment flashed across his handsome face.

He looked at Meng Ke with a questioning glance.

Meng Ke chuckled, “Since Xiaoxiao wants to keep it a secret, you’ll have to wait a while to find out, President Luo.”

Actually, he didn’t know what gift Xiaoxiao had bought either.

Luo Haofeng smiled indifferently, “Alright then, I’ll see when you give the gift later.”

Bai Xiaoxiao asked, “Didn’t you buy a gift?”

Luo Haofeng had empty hands; it’s impossible that the gifts for the three kids were in his pockets.

“No, I’m not good at picking gifts. I’m afraid the three little ones wouldn’t like them, so I didn’t buy any.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched slightly.

For a moment, she didn’t know how to respond to Luo Haofeng’s words.

Initially, she felt a bit awkward walking side by side with the two men.

Regardless of how naturally Luo Haofeng acted, she knew she couldn’t see him as just an ordinary friend.

Her heart would race due to the breeze carrying his scent past her nose.

Meng Ke laughed heartily, “President Luo and Mo General are like brothers, not buying gifts means you’re giving red envelopes, right?”

Luo Haofeng raised his eyebrows, “Red envelopes will definitely be given.”

The courtyard of the Mo family

The courtyard, tinged with a faint floral scent, was filled with laughter and chatter.

A few children were happily playing the game of “Eagle Catching Little Chickens.”

Wen Ran was sitting and chatting with the pregnant An Lin and Bai Yiyi nearby, while Mo Xiuchen came out of the living room and walked over to Wen Ran.

“Ranran, Qing Feng just called to say Ah Feng is with Xiaoxiao and Meng Ke, and he has picked them up.”

“Did they really run into each other?”

Wen Ran looked up at Mo Xiuchen in surprise.

He smiled gently, took her hand, took the pine nuts from her hand, pulled up a chair beside her, and elegantly began to peel them.

“They’re probably chatting quite well.”

As he spoke, he offered the peeled pine nuts to Wen Ran’s lips.

Meanwhile, Bai Yiyi and An Lin covered their mouths with laughter, “Xiuchen, you showing off your love like this isn’t very kind to us pregnant women.”

“You can go for a walk over there, or go inside to watch Ah Mu and Ah Jin cook.”

In fact, Qin Mu and Wen Jin coming to cook at his house was all Mo Xiuchen’s doing.

An Lin snorted unhappily at his words, “Xiuchen, with Ziyi, Momo, and Xinxin’s birthday, you have Ah Jin and Ah Mu cooking, how could you?”

Mo Xiuchen laughed heartily.

He acted as if Bai Yiyi and An Lin didn’t exist, feeding Wen Ran the peeled pine nuts.

Originally, Wen Ran didn’t intend to provoke the two pregnant women, but under Mo Xiuchen’s deep gaze laced with a smile, she couldn’t help but open her mouth and eat the pine nuts he fed her.

“What’s there to feel bad about? They lost a bet willingly, too bad Ah Kai isn’t here.”

Mo Xiuchen spoke regretfully; Gu Kai was called back to the hospital at the last minute today and could only come over in the afternoon.

Otherwise, the ones cooking today wouldn’t just be Qin Mu and Wen Jin. Maybe Gu Kai would join them too.

“Don’t always bully my two brothers.”

Wen Ran took the pine nuts Mo Xiuchen handed over, feeding them to his lips, “You should eat too.”

“Thank you, Ranran.”

Mo Xiuchen had just opened his mouth when Wen Ran’s voice echoed in his ear again, with a hint of teasing mixed with a pinch of sulkiness, “Xiuchen, after you eat this pine nut, you should go to the kitchen to help out too, don’t tire Ah Mu and my brother.”

“Ranran?”

Mo Xiuchen frowned in grievance, feeling that Wen Ran had sided with others again.

Bai Yiyi and An Lin were desperately trying to suppress their laughter, but the smile on their faces was undeniable.

Wen Ran chuckled lightly, “You’re the host, you can’t let them say you’re mistreating guests, right? Besides, today is our babies’ birthday. As the father, shouldn’t you personally make delicious food for them?”

“Then I’ll go make a cake.”

Mo Xiuchen listened to Wen Ran’s words, ate the pine nuts she handed him, and got up to go help in the kitchen.

“Ranran, you’re really something, just a word and you got Mo Xiuchen to cook.”

Bai Yiyi glanced in the direction Mo Xiuchen left, then turned her gaze back to Wen Ran with admiration.

An Lin giggled, “For Xiuchen, Ranran’s words are more powerful than an imperial decree. Ranran, how do you manage him, share some experiences with us.”

“Qin Mu dotes on you so much, yet you’re still not satisfied.”

Wen Ran teased, knowing An Lin was perfectly happy now and was still joking around with her.

An Lin raised an eyebrow and smiled, “Ah Mu spoils me now because I have his little sweetheart. Maybe when the little sweetheart is born, he won’t be so nice to me anymore.”

“Heartless.”

Wen Ran laughed and jokingly glared at her, standing up for Qin Mu.

Bai Yiyi laughed along and chimed in, “An Lin, you’re really heartless, Qin Mu treats you so well, and you think this way about him. If Qin Mu hears this, I don’t know how hurt he’d be.”

“I’m speaking the truth. When he first found out it was a daughter, he was happier than anything. When the baby is born, he might not remember me at all.”

An Lin’s words made Wen Ran chuckle lightly, “Didn’t you hope to have a daughter to steal Ziyi as a son-in-law?”

“Haha, that’s true. If you don’t have a daughter, how will you steal Ziyi?”

“My son-in-law.”

An Lin laughed proudly, turning her gaze towards the not-so-distant lawn.

After a few seconds, she turned back and discussed with Wen Ran, “Ranran, have Ziyi stay at our house for a few days.”

“Ah?”

Wen Ran looked at An Lin in surprise.

An Lin said with a smile, “Have Ziyi come to our house, so he can nurture some feelings with his future wife. After the baby is born, I’ll let her come to your house.”

“No way.”

Wen Ran jokingly pretended to be scared, “Sending the baby to my house right after birth, aren’t you treating me like a free nanny? Wishful thinking.”

“Ranran, that would be your Mo family’s daughter-in-law, you can’t treat her like that.”

An Lin frowned discontentedly.

In the kitchen, Qin Mu and Wen Jin were busy as one chopped vegetables and the other washed them, then they saw Mo Xiuchen stroll in leisurely.

“What are you doing here?”

Qin Mu glanced up at him briefly, then continued with his task.

After Wen Jin finished cutting the meat in his hand, he looked up at Mo Xiuchen, who had walked up to him and rolled up his sleeves. A smile spread in his eyes, “Xiuchen, did Ranran drive you into the kitchen to help?”
