Recently, the weather has been quite pleasant, with sunshine every day. Mo Ran said that winter had passed and spring had arrived.
But Grandma argued that there would be one more cold spell before spring truly arrived.
Mo Ran disagreed, she was certain that spring had indeed come. The climate was warming up, and she needed only to wear a knitted sweater and a wool coat, without feeling cold at all.
After resting for a bit more than a week, her body had basically fully recovered. The doctor said that as long as there were no problems with her body, the child would be fine.
She had another phone call with Mo Yan, and during it, Mo Ran once again detected something off in her tone.
"Sis, tell me, are you unhappy about something?" Mo Ran asked with concern.
Marrying into a wealthy family was Mo Yan’s greatest dream and her happiest achievement.
But it seemed that things were not as they appeared; after her marriage, every phone call they had lacked any hint of joy in her voice. Google seaʀᴄh NoveI(F)ire.net
Mo Yan was silent for a while, then broke into tears, "Ranran, I’ve always been reluctant to tell you because I was afraid you would laugh at me. But I’m truly feeling aggrieved, and besides you, I don’t know who else to turn to."
"Sis, what exactly happened?" Hearing her crying, Mo Ran immediately became anxious.
Was it Yang Tao who had treated her poorly?
Had she been beaten, or what?
Mo Ran thought of the former Gu Yixuan, a man cruel and heartless. Could Yang Tao be that kind of person too?
"Ranran, let’s meet somewhere in person. It’s not convenient to talk on the phone." There were many servants in the Yang Family, and eyes and ears of the elder matriarch everywhere, so she dared not take the risk of pouring her heart out to Mo Ran at home.
Mo Ran understood her meaning, "Ok, do you have time now? Let’s meet at the restaurant we used to go to often."
"Mm, I’ll get ready and head out," Mo Yan replied.
After hanging up, Mo Ran changed her clothes, grabbed her purse, and headed downstairs. Just as she reached the foyer by the entrance, Li Lan and Huang Xiaoli stopped her.
"Miss Mo, where are you going?"
"Oh, I’m stepping out for a bit to meet my sister."
"But, Mr. Gu said that you should rest well at home and not go anywhere," Li Lan said with a smile.
Thinking it was just a tone of concern, Mo Ran smiled in return, "Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Besides, my body has completely recovered, so stepping out for a bit won’t be a problem."
Mo Ran slipped on her shoes, grasped the doorknob, and was just about to open it when Huang Xiaoli hastily grabbed her hand.
