Chapter 74: Speak Freely
“What’s wrong?” Seeing the lass curl up and sit on the carpet by the bed, Mo Chi anxiously quickened his pace and walked towards her.
“What happened?” Mo Chi asked anxiously. Who exactly dared to bully his precious treasure?
Qin Ran was unwilling to show her weakness. She only sniffled and didn’t say anything else.
“What exactly is going on? Do you want me to die of anxiety?” Mo Chi continued.
Helpless, Qin Ran could only remain silent for a while before saying, “It’s nothing serious. I just miss my parents a little.”
Mo Chi didn’t know much about her past after all. After Qin Ran moved in, she almost never mentioned her adoptive parents, so his first reaction was that the lass missed Mr. and Mrs. Qin. Therefore, he said gently, “Since you miss your parents, go back and take a look. I’ll bring you back to the Qin family.”
Qin Ran was stunned for a moment before she smiled. “It’s my adoptive parents in the countryside. That’s my real parents.” How could that illusory blood relationship compare to more than ten years of companionship?
“Alright, why don’t you bring them over? Or I can bring you back to the countryside to see them.” Only then did Mo Chi’s nervous heart relax slightly. He sat on the carpet next to Qin Ran very naturally.
“I’m afraid I won’t have the chance. My parents passed away a year ago.” Speaking of it now, Qin Ran’s heart still ached.
Mo Chi’s heart ached even more for the lass in front of him.
“Ranran…” Mo Chi wanted to comfort Qin Ran, but he didn’t know what to say.
“It’s fine,” Qin Ran said first.
The lass in front of him had clearly suffered a lot, but she had to pretend to be strong. Mo Chi’s heart ached when he saw this.
“You don’t have to make things so difficult for yourself in front of me,” Mo Chi said as he rubbed Qin Ran’s hair.
Qin Ran only raised her eyes to look at Mo Chi. Actually, he was very right. After all, for now, he was the closest person to her.
“It would be good if I could go back and pay my respects to them.” She had been out for a long time. She should indeed go back and take a look.
“When do you want to go back? I’ll go with you.” Qin Ran was the most important.
The journey back to the countryside was not considered close. Even if they took the highway, it would take nearly two and a half hours. As the president, Mo Chi was busy every day, so it was best not to waste his precious time. “Let the driver send me back. This way, you can be at ease and not waste time.”
“No, I must send you there personally.” Mo Chi went there firstly to accompany Qin Ran and secondly to pay respects to his parents-in-law. He didn’t care about the city or countryside. Only the parents who were in Qin Ran’s heart were qualified to be his parents-in-law.
Qin Ran knew that she couldn’t persuade Mo Chi anymore after she saw that he was determined. “Then let’s go and return quickly,” Qin Ran said.
“There’s no need to be in a hurry. Your admission notice is here. School will officially start in September. In the future, you have to attend classes well in school. I don’t think you have time to go out and play. We’ll take this opportunity to go out and play for two days. It’s not only a reward for your outstanding college entrance examination results, but also for relaxation.” Mo Chi was already prepared in a short period of time.
It was also good. Over the years, Qin Ran had traveled to many countries and cities because of the uniqueness of her work. However, the thing she liked the most was the countryside when she was young. There were the most relaxed and warm times there.
After a few bites of dinner, Qin Ran returned to her room to pack her luggage. Actually, there wasn’t much to pack, only half a backpack.
“Ranran, I forgot to give you this this afternoon.” Mo Chi formally handed the admission notice to Qin Ran with both hands.
“So fast!” Qin Ran opened the notice. It was indeed the school she liked and the major she liked.
He finally saw a sincere smile on the lass’s face ever since he returned home in the afternoon.
As long as she was happy.
“Mr. Mo, let me help you pack your things.” Indeed, when girls were happy, they liked to help others.
“Alright, I was just worried.” Mo Chi deliberately frowned and pandered to Qin Ran. Actually, the auntie at home would prepare his luggage in advance every time he went on a business trip. However, how could the luggage prepared by the auntie be as joyful as the one prepared by his wife?
Qin Ran came to the cloakroom of Mo Chi’s master bedroom and casually pushed open a closet. What greeted her eyes was only a variety of suits and white shirts.“Why did you buy so many identical clothes?” Qin Ran was puzzled.
“These are all different.” Mo Chi casually took out two items and said, “Some of them have different styles, and some have different colors.”
