After contracting to have a child, the icy female CEO became addicted.

"Hey sis, what nice thing did you buy for your husband this time?"

Wen Zhi, who was always eager to stir up trouble, certainly wouldn't miss this scene. She spoke without hesitation, her eyes full of mockery, completely looking forward to a good show.

Jiang Ran was so embarrassed he was practically digging his toes into the ground. He forced himself to stand next to Wen Ling, which was a relief, as he had finally found someone to lean on.

Wen Ling's expression instantly turned cold, and right in front of everyone, she said without hesitation, "Don't force me to slap you on this beautiful day!"

Normally, Wen Zhi would have been a little scared to hear Wen Ling say that.

But now that the whole family was there, especially the elders, Wen Zhi wasn't afraid anymore. She took the opportunity to hide next to Liu Yeyun and said in a pretentious tone, "Grandmother, look at my sister, she's bullying me again!"

Liu Yeyun raised an eyebrow, and seeing Wen Ling taking Jiang Ran's arm, a glint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes. She chuckled and said, "You silly child, you tease your sister's husband, how can your sister not bully you?"

"grandmother!!"

Wen Zhi shouted, pouting with a face full of resentment.

Wen Bojun had already witnessed this scene before. Although he was still dissatisfied, he didn't say anything more. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he said, "Let's go eat first. The banquet is ready."

According to seniority, Jiang Ran and Wen Ling sat behind Wen Bojun and Zhou Manru.

Counting from the last table is Wen Zhi.

The dishes on the table were all served, and a few servants stood behind the chairs, waiting to be instructed at any time.

Seeing that everyone had taken their seats, Wen Chongshan, sitting at the head of the table, raised his hand to signal. Then, Jiang Ran saw a servant walk towards him, carrying a gift box. The servant passed between him and Wen Ling and placed the gift box on the table.

Wen Chongshan's voice then rang out: "This was originally intended to be given at your and Xiaoling's wedding banquet, but I heard that you haven't held the wedding yet, so I decided to give it to you today since I saw it."

Jiang Ran didn't speak, but his gaze fell on the pure black gift box with gold trim. Just by placing it in front of him, he looked high-end and elegant, and the box itself showed that it was very valuable.

But, does this thing seem unsuitable for him to carry?

Before Jiang Ran could react, Wen Ling's voice rang out beside her: "Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma."

Then, Jiang Ran saw Wen Ling push the box in front of him, indicating that he should put it under the table first.

"..."

Although they were currently at the Wen Family Manor, the lavishly decorated restaurant gave Jiang Ran the feeling of going out to a banquet with her older sister...

"Zhizhi, stop focusing on eating! Your sister has already made the reservations, you should hurry up!"

Liu Yeyun smiled at Wen Zhi, her intention to urge them to get married being exceptionally clear.

"No way! Grandma, you know me, I haven't had enough fun yet!" Wen Zhi retorted while eating.

"Let her be, Mom. What do you think? Are you satisfied?"

Zhou Manru's voice rang out, and she even gave Jiang Ran a wink, her questioning tone quite obvious.

Liu Yeyun narrowed her eyes: "Are you satisfied or not? You've already got the marriage certificate, haven't you?"

"Sigh... I was thinking of settling things down first, and then we'll talk about it later!" Zhou Manru said, leaning close to Liu Yeyun's ear and whispering, "Mom, Jiang Ran is a pretty good kid, and Xiao Ling seems to be finally starting to understand!"

Hearing this, Liu Yeyun suddenly opened her eyes. "You've really gotten it?"

"You've got it! You didn't notice just now? You've started protecting it. How can that not be considered enlightenment?"

"Isn't it normal to protect someone? I'm asking if she's even learned how to like someone yet?"

"I really didn't know that, but Xiao Ling is really protecting Jiang Ran now. I wonder if she's realized it herself..."

The two were very close, whispering to each other while their eyes were fixed on Jiang Ran and Wen Ling.

Wen Chongshan, who was closest to the two, naturally overheard their conversation. He calmly cut his steak while his gaze lingered on Jiang Ran.

"What's his character like? Have you tried to test him?"

Turning his head to look at Wen Bojun, Wen Chongshan's voice was rather soft.

Wen Bojun snorted coldly, tilting his head back and saying, "It'll do."

Upon hearing this, Wen Chongshan raised an eyebrow. He glanced at Jiang Ran, who was not very skilled at cutting steak, and was quite surprised that his son would say something like "it's okay".

That means his character is definitely up to standard?

Jiang Ran had expected the two elderly people to have many questions for him while they were eating together, and he was prepared to be interrogated. However, he did not expect that once he sat down at the table, the elders would start chatting on their own.

We were still whispering to each other, as if afraid he'd overhear...

The elders' gazes were so sharp that Jiang Ran felt extremely uncomfortable.

He wasn't used to using knives and forks, and now that he was sitting here acting like a superior person, Jiang Ran's hand trembled, and he almost spilled the steak off the plate!

"Click!"

A slight sound rang out as the cutlery rubbed against the white porcelain plate.

Wen Ling's gaze followed, her eyes flickered slightly, she put down her knife and fork and gestured, "Get him a new pair of chopsticks."

"Yes, Miss."

Behind him, the maid nodded hurriedly and soon jogged over to add a pair of chopsticks for Jiang Ran.

This scene was witnessed by everyone present.

Wen Zhi, standing beside him, watched this scene with great interest!

Has her sister finally come to her senses?!

It seems that what she said last time really hit the nail on the head for her sister!

My sister really did listen attentively!

Throughout the meal, Jiang Ran kept his head down and ate, but the countless eyes and gazes around him made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

It's much more comfortable for him to stay in his rented room and eat a bowl of beef noodles. At least he can play on his phone while eating, right?

Judging by his posture, it would be against the rules for him to even look up at his phone, let alone play on it!

The dinner finally ended, and Jiang Ran, who had expected a casual chat afterward, was stunned to see Wen Chongshan and Liu Yeyun go directly to the elevator with Wen Ling's parents.

Noticing this, Wen Ling asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Ran scratched his head: "Didn't you say your grandfather wanted to see me? I thought we'd have a private talk..."

"They're just here to have fun, and they happened to drop by to see you!"

Before Wen Ling could respond, Wen Zhi's teasing voice rang out from behind, "Don't worry, Grandpa and Grandma aren't the type to meddle!"

It was a rare opportunity to answer Jiang Ran's question, but Wen Zhi stole it. Wen Ling's initial joy was quickly replaced by anger!

"Did I ask you to be so nosy?"

Her icy voice descended instantly, and her eyes glared sharply at Wen Zhi.

Wen Zhi understood perfectly what he meant. She pouted and quickly raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, I was too nosy. I shouldn't have disturbed my sister and brother-in-law's little romantic moment~"
