Chapter 14: Don’t Contact Me For Two Years

With the man’s promise, Xia Ran felt relieved.

She stopped fooling around and obediently hugged Mu Hua to sleep. Before she slept, she even kissed him twice.

The next morning, Mu Hua and Zhu Qian sat together.

Xia Ran was not up yet.

“Auntie He, don’t wake her up first. Let her sleep in longer,” Mu Hua instructed Auntie He.

She had slept too late last night. That little girl hadn’t slept enough.

Seeing how considerate Mu Hua was, Zhu Qian was furious.

“Little girls are lazy.” She couldn’t help but mock her. A woman who only needed to be coaxed wasn’t suitable for a man like Mu Hua.

Mu Hua would get tired of her sooner or later. Which successful man would like such a childish girl? He was just messing around with her.

However, Mu Hua only smiled faintly. “Yes, she’s a little lazy, but she’s quite cute.”

That doting tone couldn’t be faked.

Zhu Qian felt a strong sense of danger. Did the current Mu Hua really have no feelings for Xia Ran? Was he just with her to have a child?

“Hehe.” She had nothing to say and could only laugh awkwardly.

“We agreed before that I would divorce Ranran in two years, so before that, we should try not to contact each other.” Mu Hua had promised Xia Ran, so he had to keep his promise.

He had always been a man of his word.

Zhu Qian thought that she had heard wrongly and couldn’t believe it. “What did you say? Are you going to cut ties with me for two years for her?”

On what basis?

“Yes, because I don’t think there’s a need for us to contact each other for the time being. Instead, it will affect me and Ranran. As you know, I really want a child,” Mu Hua replied calmly.

“Muhua, she’s just a surrogate. Isn’t it just giving birth to a child? If you give her more money, she will definitely agree. Why sacrifice two years of our time?” Zhu Qian asked agitatedly.

Her words made Mu Hua very unhappy. He had never treated Xia Ran as a surrogate tool, nor did he like it when others said that.

Mu Hua’s expression turned cold, and his tone became stern. “Zhu Qian, Ranran is not a surrogate tool. I hope you watch your words.”

Zhu Qian was alarmed. Could it be that Mu Hua had really fallen in love with that little girl?

Otherwise, why would he say that?

Back then, Mu Hua had told her that he had chosen to fake his marriage with Xia Ran because of the pressure from his family. This would make it easier for him to get a divorce.

But now, he was clearly protecting Xia Ran.

Indeed, Zhu Qian was unable to conceive. She also wanted a child. If Xia Ran could give birth to a child and leave it to Mu Hua, then she could marry Mu Hua and the family would be complete.

But now, Xia Ran posed a huge threat to her.

Zhu Qian rejected her forcefully. “I don’t want to. Mu Hua, we’ve already been delayed for too long. I don’t want to waste another two years. What if you fall in love with her in these two years?”

Mu Hua couldn’t answer this question.

However, his intentions were very clear now. He would treat Xia Ran well within two years.

It was obvious that Zhu Qian did not accept it, and Mu Hua couldn’t force her.

He still had to go to the company, so he stood up and said indifferently, “It’s up to you.”

With that, he left.

Zhu Qian sat there alone with a dark look in her eyes. She hated Xia Ran for occupying her position. She hated Xia Ran for having a healthy body that could get pregnant, while her ability to get pregnant had disappeared.

She was definitely unwilling to give up two more years for Mu Hua and Xia Ran.

Even if she fell out with Mu Hua because of this, it didn’t matter. It was a life and death struggle, and no one would have an easy time. Before that, she had to chase Xia Ran away.

“Auntie He, did he go to the company?”

At this moment, Xia Ran went downstairs.

She yawned and looked like she was still half asleep.

Auntie He walked out and replied, “Yes, he went to the company.”

Xia Ran realized that she liked to sleep more and more. It was probably because she was pregnant. If not for the fact that she was hungry, she would still be able to sleep.

Suddenly, she saw Zhu Qian in the dining room and sobered up.

Anyone would feel sleepy when they saw the person they hated in their home early in the morning.

Xia Ran walked over with a cold expression and sat opposite Zhu Qian. She took the breakfast Auntie He placed on the table and started eating. She treated Zhu Qian like air and didn’t even greet her.

Zhu Qian looked at the young girl sitting opposite her. She was really beautiful. Her face was bare, and her makeup-less face was filled with collagen. She was young and pretty, whoch made her extremely jealous.

No wonder Mu Hua liked her. Men were the same. They always liked young girls.
