?Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Brother Mo Chen, you’ve finally learned to speak words of love   Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Brother Mo Chen, you’ve finally learned to speak words of love                                   Qiao Ruoxin hugged the man’s neck tightly, “Actually, when I heard Auntie Lan say that she wanted Lan Ke to abort the child, I thought of my mom…”


    The man’s grip on her legs tightened, but his deep voice softened, “Little Ghost, that kind of thing will never happen to you.”


    “I know, Brother Mo Chen is the strongest.” She chuckled lightly and pecked the man’s earlobe.


    Mo Chen’s eyes darkened, “Stop fooling around.”


    “Brother Mo Chen, what if this road has no end?”


    “Then I’ll just carry you forever.”


    She received the answer she hoped for, revealing a sweet smile, “Brother Mo Chen, you’ve finally learned how to speak sweetly.”


    The man’s handsome brows raised, “Which sentence?”


    “…”


    Still so clueless.


    Qiao Ruoxin sighed lightly, “I’m a bit sleepy.”


    “Then sleep.”


    “Are you going to dump me halfway and walk away on your own?”


    Mo Chen nced back at her, his lips curving, “Depends on my mood.”


    Yet sheughed, “Brother Mo Chen, where shall we go for our honeymoon?”


    “You decide.”


    Those years, he had always wanted to take her on a trip, but work was too busy, and it was postponed time and again, until finally, this Little Ghost caused a breakup and disappeared for two years.


    Qiao Ruoxin looked up at the night sky, thought for a moment, and said, “Let’s go see the Northern Lights, I want to see them.”


    “Okay.”


    After a while, her steady breathing told the man that she had fallen asleep.


    Mo Chen’s lips curved slightly, as he carried her on, continuing towards the end of this road.


    …


    In the dark of the night, under the dim streetmps.


    A ck luxury car lurked in the distance, with Simon sitting in the driver’s seat, watching Mo Chen carrying Qiao Ruoxin from afar.


    Jealousy filled Simon’s eyes.


    He sneered disdainfully, “Is this what you call love? Such a naive little girl.”


    The more inseparable Qiao Ruoxin and Mo Chen seemed, the more he wanted to pull them apart.


    Two years ago, he seeded, and he was confident he would seed again this time.


    Suddenly, the ringtone of a cellphone sounded inside the car.


    Simon answered the call, “What’s wrong?”


    “Sir, thedy’s condition is very bad, she has been taken to the hospital, we hope you cane and sign some paperwork.”


    Simon’s face instantly changed, “I’ll be right there.”


    After hanging up, Simon nced once more at the man carrying the woman in the distance, murmuring low, “Baby, you really have no conscience at all. Here you are, indulging in love and romance while I have to look after your mom. You’ll have to pay me back double for this.”


    Simon started the car and turned it around, leaving the quiet alley.


    …


    Late at night.


    Qiao Ruoxin suddenly woke from a dream, where her mom kept calling her name.


    Opening her eyes, she found herself in the car, fast asleep on Mo Chen’s shoulder.


    The man noticed she was awake and pinched her chin with his long fingers, “Finally willing to wake up?”


    She rubbed her eyes, speakingzily, “How long did I sleep?”


    “Less than an hour, we’re home.”


    The driver slowly drove the car into the garage and then parked it.


    As she exited the car, still groggy with sleep, she walked toward the vi.


    Something felt a bit off, her heart was beating a little faster, but she couldn’t put her finger on the feeling.


    Mo Chen saw her stop walking behind him, grasped her icy hands, and furrowed his brows displeased, “Why are your hands so cold?”


    “Maybe it’s because I just had a nightmare, it’s nothing.”


    She revealed a reassuring smile and pulled the man’s hand, returning to the vi.


    Qiao Ruoxin went back to the bedroom to take a bath, then blow-dried her hair until it was half-dry, and went out to the terrace to sit for a while.


    As she looked at her phone screen, she suddenly wanted to call her mom, but hesitated for a long time and still couldn’t make the call.


    Suddenly, a man’s voice came from the bathroom: “Little Ghost, get me some underwear.”


    “Coming!”


    She put her phone aside, ran to the wardrobe to grab a pair of men’s underwear, walked to the bathroom door, pushed it slightly ajar, and stretched her hand in, “Here you go.”


    Mo Chen deliberately grabbed her wrist, “Shower together?”


    “No, I just took one.”


    The next second, that damn man actually forcibly pulled her into the bathroom, and immediately there were Qiao Ruoxin’s screams and the man’s low chuckles.


    An hourter.


    Qiao Ruoxin’s face was filled with grievance as she dried her hair with a towel and, wearing a robe, came out to the terrace.


    After a while, Mo Chen also came up to the terrace and, seeing her sitting on the sofa, walked over and picked her up to sit on hisp.


    “Little Ghost, are you angry?”


    “Knowing I would be angry, you still did it! Annoying! I had already taken a bath, and you dragged me to take another.” She didn’t want to give Mo Chen a pleasant look, otherwise he would just be more excessive in the future.


    Mo Chen touched her delicate chin and coaxed her in a low voice, “Brother is wrong, hmm?”


    “What’s the use of knowing you’re wrong if you don’t change?”


    She huffed, then picked up the phone beside her, suddenly noticing a missed call from Simon.


    The man saw the change in her eyes and nced at the phone number on the screen, “Who is this number? That trash?”


    “…”


    How could he guess so urately?


    Surprise flickered in Qiao Ruoxin’s eyes, “Have you learned the Mind Reading Technique or something? You guessed it so urately?”


    Upon hearing this, the man’s expression turned instantly grim; indeed, it was that trash.


    He snatched the phone from Qiao Ruoxin’s hands and threw it onto the opposite sofa, “Don’t think about that trash when you’re having a romantic moment with me.”


    “Who’s thinking about him? Would I be sick or something? Why would I think about him? I just picked up the phone and saw his missed call, that’s all.”


    She felt wronged indeed; actually, she was waiting for her mom’s call, but it seemed like that wasn’t happening now.


    Mo Chen lifted her chin, “Really?”


    “Of course!”


    “It’s gettingte, let’s go to sleep.”


    He carried Qiao Ruoxin horizontally and walked towards the bedroom.


    She instinctively hugged the man’s neck, but her eyes involuntarily nced back at the phone on the outdoor sofa.


    That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, feeling an indescribable strangeness, as if something was going to happen.


    But seeing Mo Chen sleeping soundly, appearing very deep in slumber,tely Mo Chen’s daily routine had also gradually returned to normal, and his medical examination report showed all indicators were normal.


    Now he could touch women again, of course, any woman but her was out of the question, it would still make him nauseous.


    But being able to recover to this extent was already very good. One step at a time.


    As she thought, Qiao Ruoxin fell asleep.


    When she opened her eyes again, it was already morning. She stretched and discovered Mo Chen had left her side.


    Suddenly, the phone on the terrace started ringing.


    Qiao Ruoxin got up, put on slippers, and went to the terrace. She picked up the phone; it was still Simon.


    She answered the call, “What’s up?”


    “Last night, Auntie Lan was taken to the emergency room, and I couldn’t reach you on your phone. Do you want toe to the hospital to see her? Auntie Lan was just transferred from the ICU to a regr ward this morning.”


    The Intensive Care Unit? Was it that serious?


    Qiao Ruoxin’s face instantly paled.
