Chapter 439: Chapter 438: The Dirtiest Side_1

Today, Xu Zi was discharged from the hospital. Mother Huo called, asking Jun Mochan to come over for dinner that evening.

"Should we go?" Jun Mochan sought Ye Ranran’s opinion.

Ye Ranran didn’t want to see those people, but there were times when one couldn’t avoid it.

"Let’s go, I’ll go with you."

"Alright." Jun Mochan responded.

There was a minute of silence from the other end before she gave an answer; Mother Huo naturally knew what had happened.

Thinking about Jun Mochan’s concern for Ye Ranran made her livid.

She didn’t understand. Was Ye Ranran really that good? Should he treasure her that much?

Xu Zi looked at the absent-minded Huo Yi, a layer of worry clouding his brows: "Ah Yi, are you unhappy?"

"No, don’t overthink."

There was no discernible expression on Huo Yi’s perennially unchanged face, his tone was without any fluctuation, but Xu Zi knew he was unhappy.

"If you have any worries, you can tell me. We are husband and wife, we share the burdens together." Xu Zi rested her head on his chest.

"It’s just my mother wanting to have a grandchild again."

Xu Zi’s face turned pale all of a sudden, her hand anxiously gripping the hem of her dress: "Does mom..."

"No, don’t overthink it. It’s normal for mother to say such things at her age, don’t take it to heart."

How could she not take it to heart?

Unfamiliar emotions flashed in Xu Zi’s eyes. It seemed she had to cure her infertility, or else Huo Yi really might leave her.

For an ordinary family, a hospital discharge celebration would simply be a dinner at home.

But for the Huo family, it meant dining out.

The most luxurious hotel in A City; Mother Huo had booked a private room in advance and had arrived ahead of time with Huo Yi and Xu Zi.

Jun Mochan and Ye Ranran arrived late.

The dinner was filled with tension once more.

Feeling bored, Ye Ranran made an excuse to go to the restroom and stepped outside.

Five minutes later, Xu Zi also came out.

She found Ye Ranran behind the curtain in the hall. There was a small balcony there, and due to the curtain covering, it was relatively secluded.

"What, can’t bear showing your face anymore?"

Ye Ranran turned around, seeing Xu Zi, she hooked up the corners of her red lips: "You’re so unashamed, why did you come out?"

"I just wanted to see the pathetic and troubled face of someone." With no one else around, Xu Zi finally revealed her spiteful side.

This was her true nature.

The vilest side hidden under the veneer of civility.

"Sorry to disappoint you." Ye Ranran looked at Xu Zi’s face.

The faint scar on her face was especially clear in the light. Although it was light, light enough to miss in a casual glance, it nevertheless disrupted her original beauty.

Seeing Ye Ranran’s direct gaze, Xu Zi felt especially humiliated: "I have this scar, are you happy now?"

"Scarred? Wait until I’ve cut your face with a knife, then you can say such."

"Ye Ranran, are you proud? Jun Mochan’s orders, that I can’t remove the scar, saying it serves as a lesson for me."

Ye Ranran was stunned, she hadn’t expected Jun Mochan had done these things.

How much had he done for her?

"Look at your bewildered expression. Are you going to tell me you have nothing to do with this?" Xu Zi approached her, so close that Ye Ranran could clearly see the jealousy in her eyes.

"Why should I deny it? Even if I tell you clearly that I asked him to do so, what can you do about it? Xu Zi, this is just the beginning." Ye Ranran didn’t back off, raising her head with an arc of pride.
