Chapter 345: 344 I went home for a blind date

Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran, and others bid farewell to the invited guests. It was already approaching the end of the workday.

The compensation for the deceased’s family amounted to the highest ever in history.

The Chen and Wang families did not raise any objections. As for the perpetrators who tampered with the tower, causing a loss of life, they would stand trial in a few days.

The engineering accident had finally come to a close.

“Ah Mu, Ah Feng, there’s nothing else for today. You guys can leave work early. No need for socializing or overtime tonight.”

Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng had been working hard these days, especially Qin Mu, whose head injury had not yet fully healed. Mo Xiuchen’s gaze lingered on his forehead for two seconds, “Ah Mu, take a week off and rest at home.”

“Oh, Ah Mu gets time off?”

Luo Haofeng looked at Qin Mu in surprise and chuckled, “It seems the injury is indeed a blessing in disguise. Ah Mu, relax and enjoy your leave. By the way, it seems like Yuting will be back tomorrow.”

Qin Mu frowned, not understanding why Luo Haofeng would suddenly mention Shen Yuting.

Wen Ran also looked confused and asked curiously, “What does Ah Mu’s leave have to do with Sister Ting?”

Only Mo Xiuchen seemed to understand, a smile flickering in his eyes. He had mentioned to Luo Haofeng that Qin Mu might be seeing someone, hence his visits to the hospital.

Luo Haofeng believed it was Shen Yuting.

Besides Shen Yuting, there was no one else in Kangning Hospital who could catch Qin Mu’s eye.

Upon seeing Mo Xiuchen’s smile, Qin Mu’s expression changed.

Suddenly realizing the implication behind Luo Haofeng’s words, Qin Mu glared at him, “I’m going home for a blind date!”

As soon as the words slipped out, he seemed to realize his outburst.

Before Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng could react or Wen Ran to say anything, Qin Mu turned and swiftly left the office.

“Xiuchen, did I hear it right? Did Ah Mu just say he’s going home for a blind date?”

Luo Haofeng hadn’t recovered yet. Qin Mu, a usually calm and collected individual, had actually blurted out those words.

A flicker of surprise crossed Mo Xiuchen’s narrow eyes.

Yes, Ah Mu had always been exceptionally composed. As his aide over the years, he knew this better than anyone else.

That he would impulsively say those words and then make his exit so hastily…

The only explanation was that he had something to hide.

“Could he really be in love with Yuting?”

Mo Xiuchen contemplated, his brows furrowed.

That’s not right. Shen Yuting had gone on a lecture tour and won’t be back until tomorrow. The day that Qin Mu appeared alone at the hospital, she wasn’t even home.

“Haha, regardless of whether he likes Shen Yuting or not, it’s good to know that Ah Mu has someone in his heart. I have a great way to get him to reveal it himself,” Luo Haofeng said.

“Do you really think Ah Mu would be as easily intoxicated as you?”

Mo Xiuchen snorted in amusement: When drunk, when everything spills out.

Wen Ran stood to the side, watching Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng discussing who Qin Mu might like with a smile on her face. Although she was also curious, she felt they were being a little mean.

“If Ah Mu isn’t ready to share, then it’s not time yet. You guys shouldn’t try so hard to uncover his secret, or else you might ruin his plans. He won’t forgive you for it,” she warned.

Mo Xiuchen chuckled, “Okay. We’ll listen to Ranran. We won’t pry. Ah Mu can’t keep this secret forever. One day, we will find out.”

Luo Haofeng shot him a scornful look. He had been so interested just now, but at Wen Ran’s words, he had switched sides. He was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang.

“It’s Ah Kai calling.”

Pulling out his mobile, Luo Haofeng nonchalantly announced.

“Ah Kai is looking for you? Could it be that something happened to Bai Xiaoxiao?”

Mo Xiuchen didn’t mind being stared at disdainfully earlier.

He liked listening to Wen Ran’s advice. If Luo Haofeng had any complaints, why didn’t he find a wife?

“Hey, Ah Kai, you sure have good timing. We just finished work and your call came in.”

Luo Haofeng’s joyous voice flowed from his thin lips, and his handsome face beamed with a brilliant smile.

“I have some bad news for you,” Gu Kai said over the phone, and Luo Haofeng’s smile slightly faded. “What bad news?”

Wen Ran whispered something to Mo Xiuchen, got up, and left the office.

Mo Xiuchen reached over and grabbed Luo Haofeng’s phone, putting it on speakerphone, so Gu Kai’s voice could be heard coming from the device: “This afternoon, Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother invited me to dinner to thank me for saving Bai Xiaoxiao.”

“Isn’t that quite normal?” Luo Haofeng frowned at Mo Xiuchen.

It was one thing to eavesdrop, but they shouldn’t be talking.

“Xiuchen, are you also there? Haha. Normally, this wouldn’t be a bad thing, but I got the sense from Mother Bai’s words that she wants to find a boyfriend for Bai Xiaoxiao. I casually asked Bai Xiaoxiao if she wanted to bring Ah Feng along. However, she said there’s nothing between her and Ah Feng.”

“She has no intention of starting a new relationship!”

After a slight pause, Gu Kai added.

The color in Luo Haofeng’s eyes flickered.

His smile stiffened momentarily but instantly returned as radiant as ever, “Ah Kai, is this the bad news you’re talking about? I think it’s good news. Did Bai Xiaoxiao’s mother take a liking to you and want her daughter to date you?”

Mo Xiuchen chuckled, his gaze sharply scrutinizing Luo Haofeng.

“Ah Feng, do you think that if I were interested in Bai Xiaoxiao, I would’ve called you? I’ve said what I needed to say. How you want to proceed is up to you,” Gu Kai said, hanging up the phone.

Such an ungrateful guy.

He kindly reminded him that if he had feelings for Bai Xiaoxiao, he should hurry up and woo his future mother-in-law, but he suggested that he should date Bai Xiaoxiao?

Mo Xiuchen shrugged and casually said, “I think Ah Kai’s warning is valid.”

Luo Haofeng scoffed and retorted, “Xiuchen, don’t tell me that you also think I like Bai Xiaoxiao. I have zero interest in her. My previous indulgence and coddling of her were all for your wife, Wen Ran.”

He stood up, straightened his suit, dropped his words “I’m clocking out. Handle the rest of the stuff yourself,” and strode off.

In the restroom

Wen Ran squatted in the stall, listening to the discussion between two female colleagues outside: “The Deputy Director’s return this time is certain to set off a fight with the President.”

Colleague A expressed her concern.

“Did you see this afternoon? The Deputy Director brought a stunning woman into his office. I heard he used to like the President’s wife. Does it mean he’s no longer interested in her?”

Colleague B’s words elicited a cold sneer from Colleague A, “Even if the Deputy Director likes the President’s wife, it’s wishful thinking. Our president is such an accomplished and perfect man. Unless the President’s wife goes blind, she would never leave him for the Deputy Director.”
