Chapter 688: 687 No matter when

Qin Mu watched as Mo Xiuchen stared at Gu Kai with an icy gaze, lovingly cherishing the cherries in his bowl. He couldn’t help but smile.

“Xiuchen, can you finish them all by yourself?”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, casting a glance at him and said casually: “If I can’t finish them today, I’ll eat them tomorrow.”

These were cherries handpicked by his Ranran. There weren’t many. Saying he couldn’t finish them all was just an excuse. In fact, he could finish them up in ten minutes if he wanted.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, he did not want to finish them all at once. He needed to look at all the things related to her while gradually forgetting Wen Ran. Therefore, he decided to keep these cherries, eat a bit every day, and savor each one slowly.

With that thought in mind, he picked up a cherry and popped it into his mouth. The sweetness that warmly entered his mouth spread all over his heart.

“Xiuchen, Ah Kai, Ah Mu, breakfast is ready.”

Luo Haofeng had greeted Mo Xiuchen a while ago and then went back to the kitchen. Now he’s out, calling out the three people in the living room.

In order to make them feel at home, Qin Mu’s mother had joined Father Qin, who was on a business trip and would not return for a least half a month after Qin Mu brought Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng home.

Without the elders, they ate breakfast while chatting casually.

“Ah Kai, how did you end up in A City? What did you tell Ranran when you saw her last night?”

Mo Xiuchen had little appetite, he drank his porridge in a refined manner, his deep eyes investigated Gu Kai who was seated opposite him.

Gu Kai smiled lightly and said calmly: “Let’s finish breakfast first, and I’ll tell you afterward.”

That comment seemed to be a retaliation for Mo Xiuchen not sharing the cherries. Mo Xiuchen flicked his eyes and turned to Qin Mu for answers.

Qin Mu was always the best one, he put down the spoon and wiped his mouth leisurely with the napkin before explaining, “Xiuchen, Uncle Gu called me last night. The drug they developed has passed the first experimental stage. After discussion among Uncle Gu, Joseph and Professor Brown, they unanimously decided to skip the later clinical trials, so that you can go to D Country with Ah Kai today for treatment.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiuchen’s expression slightly changed.

Luo Haofeng also joined in: “Xiuchen, we all believe that your illness should not be delayed. Your current physical condition is very poor. The sooner you get treatment, the less you’ll suffer. The sooner you can return to Wen Ran’s side, and the less she’ll worry.”

Nothing was as effective as the mention of Wen Ran’s name. Luo Haofeng was quite bright.

As expected, the moment Wen Ran’s name was mentioned, Mo Xiuchen’s eyes changed, “Last night, we had arranged to meet with Liao Dongxing tomorrow night for him to hand over Fu Jingyi to us.”

“Uncle Gu said that it’s his personal vendetta with Fu Jingyi. He will deal with him after he returns. You should go to D Country for treatment with peace of mind.”

Qin Mu interrupted him, his tone slightly serious.

At present, nothing was more important than Mo Xiuchen’s health. Before Mo Xiuchen could say anything, Gu Kai added, “I’ve booked the plane tickets as soon as I got up this morning, Xiuchen. After breakfast, we will head to the airport. My dad will return to A City before tomorrow night. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”

“Isn’t the experiment only in the initial animal testing stage?”

Mo Xiuchen did not agree with Gu Yan going to see Fu Jingyi. He knew that Liao Dongxing would not have an easy transaction with them. There could be a trap, and besides, Fu Jingyi had a deep hatred for Gu Kai. No one knew what he might do when he saw Gu Kai.

He knew his own body, and even if it was delayed by two more days, he wouldn’t die. However, Gu Kai did not give him time.

“The next clinical trial is for patients anyway. It just uses you directly, Xiuchen. I know you are concerned about the situation in A City, but staying here you might not only fail to help but also drag Ah Feng and Ah Mu into it. It would be better for you to go to D Country for treatment as soon as possible and recover earlier.”

“Yes, I also agree, Xiuchen, you wouldn’t want Wen Ran to be crying for you every day.”

With Qin Mu’s melancholic voice, all of Mo Xiuchen’s determination dissipated. What he did not want to see the most was Wen Ran’s tears of sadness. For now, even though he could not see her tears from miles away, he could feel her longing and distress.

“Alright, I’ll go to D Country. Ah Mu, Ah Feng, you all must be careful. I always feel that things won’t go smoothly.”

Qin Mu nodded solemnly: “Don’t worry. Liao Dongxing won’t dare to risk his wealth and life. Even if he doesn’t believe us, he won’t act recklessly.”

He didn’t tell Mo Xiuchen what Jiang Liu had told them last night. He didn’t want him to worry and delay his treatment. Just like Gu Kai had said, his current condition was very poor and not suitable for doing anything.

“Xiuchen, Ranran said she would stay in the villa in the countryside and wait for you to pick her up. So, the sooner you recover and return, the less time she will wait.”

Yesterday night, Wen Ran had told Gu Kai a lot.

After calling Mo Xiuchen, Gu Kai made a call to Gu Yan, booked the plane tickets, and went straight to the countryside to find Wen Ran. He told her that he was going to take Mo Xiuchen abroad for treatment.

He remembered that Wen Ran had said, “Brother, Xiuchen knows that he can’t hide from me forever. He also knows that I went to D Country to see him some time ago. So, you don’t have to hide anything from him in front of me. Tell him that I will stay here until he comes back to pick me up.”

“I’m not going to D Country with him because I don’t want to see him suffer from his illness. In my heart, Xiuchen is always that handsome, decisive and wise man. I believe that he will come back safely and healthy. No matter when, I believe that he will not give up on me.”

In the front seat, the driver focused on driving. In the back seat, Gu Kai repeated the words Wen Ran said last night.

Mo Xiuchen listened quietly, his elegant eyebrows relaxing. His face was calm and gentle with his thin lips lined to form a firm line. Only the fists that clenched tightly on his lap revealed his inner thoughts.

The curved knuckle, faintly showing a shade of cyan, Gu Kai repeated each word that Wen Ran had asked him to pass on from last night. Mo Xiuchen’s feelings were extraordinarily mixed.

His Ranran understood him so well. She knew he didn’t want her by his side because he was afraid that he would lose determination with her company. When she wasn’t by his side, his concern for her made him bear all the pain no matter how unbearable it would be. He had promised to go back to pick her up, and he definitely would!

“Xiuchen, if the treatment goes well, and everything goes smoothly, you will spend at most half a month in D Country before we can return.”

Gu Kai was silent for a moment, then gently added a sentence.
