"What does this have to do with you?" Ye Ranran’s word ignited a flame of anger in Mrs. Ye.
"Didn’t you just ask me for an answer? You even addressed me by name, it would be rude if I didn’t respond, wouldn’t it?" Ye Ranran added fuel to the fire.
She knew it, with Mrs. Huo present today, Xu Zi and Huo Yi wouldn’t be able to divorce. But causing discomfort for the two was achievable.
And if the child in Xu Zi’s belly accidentally miscarried, that would be even better.
"You’re just upset because things are going well for us, aren’t you?" Mrs. Huo snapped, hitting the nail on the head.
Ye Ranran nodded, her eyes wide with surprise: "Ah, you found out, I’m so sorry."
"You witch, I’ll kill you." Mrs. Huo lurched forward, ready to strike Ye Ranran.
Jun Mochan immediately stepped in front of Ye Ranran, taking the hit to his chest from Mrs. Huo.
"It’s natural for a husband to protect his wife." Jun Mochan stood firm in front of Ye Ranran, like a steadfast pine tree.
"Mother-in-law, shouldn’t you tend to the patient first? If anything makes her uncomfortable, you’ll lose your grandchild. What will you do then?"
"This time, I’ll let you off the hook." Mrs. Huo retracted her hand.
"Did I scare you?" Jun Mochan asked her nervously.
Ye Ranran smiled, her arms wrapped around Jun Mochan’s neck, hanging onto him: "Don’t worry, darling, your wife isn’t a rag doll, she’s not that fragile."
Huo Yi stood not far off, watching their sweet interaction, feeling excluded.
"Let’s go home." Jun Mochan turned and held Ye Ranran by the waist, carrying her out.
Ye Ranran’s face turned red, she looked down shyly, playing ostrich.
They were going to enter the ancient city in one day, so Ye Ranran, due to her special privilege, was resting at home.
"Ranran, what clothes should I bring?" Luo Qi stood in front of her wardrobe, calling Ye Ranran.
Being Ye Ranran’s assistant, she naturally had to tag along.
"Clothes are up to you, I wouldn’t even mind if you went in the raw; but I’d suggest bringing sunscreen, otherwise you’ll get tanned. Don’t blame me for not warning you if Ah Chuan leaves you."
She had packed the day before yesterday, originally intending to return to City B but got delayed. Her luggage, not having been unpacked, was now conveniently ready.
"Ranran, you’re really becoming shameless. Remember, you’re now the lady of a prestigious family."
"Just stating the facts. Since you don’t want to hear it, pretend I never said anything."
Luo Qi: "..." Ye Ranran’s nonsense really was getting better and better.
"I have to go now, my husband is calling me. He probably wants to ask me on a date," Ye Ranran suddenly said.
"You’re on your period, what’s the point of having a date?" Luo Qi teased her.
"We’re not like you and Ah Chuan, thinking that dates are just about rolling in bed, there’s no romantic flair at all. Alright, gotta go, don’t want my husband to worry."
Listening to the beep sounds from her phone, Luo Qi’s face darkened.
"Honey," Ye Ranran said sweetly, picking up Jun Mochan’s call.
Jun Mochan shivered: "Um, Ranran, are you upset? Or did someone bully you again?"
"That’s more like it," Jun Mochan paused for a moment: "There’s a banquet tonight. Get ready and come with me."
"I’m on my period, I’m not going." Bad things always happened at these banquets.
"Honey, this banquet is important. The mayor and ******** will be there too."
