Wen Ran glanced down at the necklace around his neck and said indifferently,
“This necklace, my brother gave it to me.”
“Ah, Miss Wen, hasn’t Young Master MO ever given you anything? You’re not wearing a ring on your finger, if Young Master MO hadn’t said it, no one would know that you two are husband and wife.”
Cheng Jia made an exaggerated expression, her eyes fixed intently on Wen Ran’s slender and fair fingers, each one bare without a ring.
Wen Ran’s eyes flickered, and then she raised an eyebrow smiling, nonchalantly saying, “The ring is just a symbol. When he’s willing to introduce me as his wife, that’s good enough for me.”

The smile on Cheng Jia’s face froze when she heard this. Wen Ran’s seemingly relaxed joke sounded quite harsh to Cheng Jia’s ears. She pursed her lips and changed the subject.
“Miss Wen, Young Master MO was injured when he was young, so he’s different from other men and has stronger self-esteem. So please, don’t get involved with other men as you did today, it hurts him.”
And what right did she have to accuse her? Was it because she had once saved MO Xiuchen’s life?
“Thank you, Miss Cheng, for your concern about MO Xiuchen, but what happened just now was a misunderstanding, and I’ve explained it to MO Xiuchen. Also, MO Xiuchen is not unlike other men.”
While speaking, Wen Ran turned to the side and started to dry her hands under the hand dryer.
“So you mean, you and Young Master MO, have consummated your marriage?” This time, Cheng Jia was genuinely shocked, her eyes wide open.
Everyone was saying that MO Xiuchen was impotent; she too thought that was true, but what did Wen Ran mean by that?
Wen Ran gave a slight smile, her fair face involuntarily blushing as she recalled one night. Such an expression was more meaningful to Cheng Jia than any words could be.
“Let’s go back, MO Xiuchen must be getting impatient.”
Cheng Jia wanted to say something else, but seeing Wen Ran walking towards the door, she just pursed her lips and followed her out of the restroom and back into the hall.
By the time they returned, the waitress had already served the dishes. MO Xiuchen was sitting in his seat, naturally reaching out to pull out the chair for Wen Ran, and casually asked, “Why were you gone for so long?
Wen Ran smiled at him and said, “I was having a few words with Miss Cheng, why didn’t you tell me you’ve known Miss Cheng for a long time?”
MO Xiuchen’s gaze flickered slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Cheng Jia. The latter showed a hint of surprise on her face, seemingly not expecting Wen Ran to mention it directly.
Then immediately laughed it off, explaining, “We got along so well with Miss Wen earlier that I accidentally slipped out the truth, Young Master MO, you won’t blame me, right?”
MO Xiuchen glanced at Cheng Jia, then at Wen Ran, and calmly said, “I only found Cheng Jia a few days ago. More than a decade ago, she saved me.”
A hint of confusion crossed Wen Ran’s eyebrows. Just now Cheng Jia mentioned that he had been harmed as a child, but she didn’t elaborate. Now, MO Xiuchen was readily telling her that Cheng Jia had saved his life.
“Unfortunately, I can’t remember the situation back then.”
Cheng Jia picked up the conversation at the right time. Her gentle tone, mixed with a hint of sadness, matched with her expression, was undoubtedly pitiful..
