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

Is this moral blackmail?

This might have been somewhat useful in earlier times.

Because, from the very beginning, when Wen Ling proposed the contract to have a child, Jiang Ran always felt that there was a hint of a joke involved. He was also a human being, a living, breathing, normal person!

Regarding having children, Jiang Ran naturally hoped that he and Wen Ling would have their own children together after developing feelings for each other.

So at that time, Jiang Ran tried many times, and he always took the initiative to compromise and take responsibility, trying to adjust the relationship between him and Wen Ling, and trying to give his first child a complete family!

But what was the result?!

As a result, Wen Ling remained unchanged, just as she always was. She even brought a man over to tell him, before she was pregnant, that she had already found a father for her child!

From that moment on, Jiang Ran was very clear that to Wen Ling, he was nothing more than a commodity, something that could be bought with money, not a living, breathing person!

Even after that, she didn't tell him she was pregnant, keeping it a secret from him for almost a whole year!

Jiang Ran had long since given up hope.

What's the point of talking about love? Where is love even now?

This love affair, which was bought and sold from the very beginning, ended the moment the child was born!

Wen Ling stared in astonishment at Jiang Ran, who was speaking so confidently!

His words were clear, logical, and well-organized, making it a rare long discourse during this period.

This moment hadn't happened in a long time. Wen Ling remembered that ever since Jiang Ran moved out on his own initiative, he had been somewhat perfunctory in his words to her.

She asked him out, but Jiang Ran said he was busy.

Jiang Ran agreed to come to his house with him, and then remained silent the whole way.

Even though they were in the same bedroom at Yunqi Villa, Jiang Ran went to bed early and no longer showed her much enthusiasm.

From that time on, the enthusiasm disappeared.

It was from this moment that Wen Ling suddenly realized the problem.

Now that he has said so much, upon careful consideration, all his points are valid.

She did want to have the child, but she hadn't considered the consequences that would lead to this situation...

She could say she never imagined, never thought Jiang Ran would suddenly stop liking her, never thought someone would suddenly dislike another person...

"So...so, you don't like me anymore, right?"

Wen Ling moved her lips slightly, managing to utter these words with great difficulty.

Especially when Jiang Ran nodded without hesitation and even said expressionlessly, "Hmm, I don't like it anymore."

My heart skipped a beat.

He was so real, sitting right in front of her. He was sitting on the other side of the bed, alive and well, with the same face as before, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, showing both youthful innocence and a touch of maturity.

But his expression was so stiff, as if he were dealing with a passerby, so calm and undisturbed.

Wen Ling suddenly remembered that Jiang Ran seemed to have stopped smiling at her altogether...

"R-really?"

Wen Ling refused to give up.

She stammered as she spoke, her eyes brimming with an expectation she herself was unaware of.

However, Jiang Ran replied without hesitation: "Of course it's true, otherwise why would I keep pestering you to come with me to get a divorce certificate?"

He even sounded a little impatient when he said this.

impatient......

Panic welled up in her heart and spread throughout her body. Ironically, in her panic, Wen Ling even felt the urge to urinate.

She instinctively raised her hand and pressed it to her chest. Was this feeling of emptiness and panic a sign of losing her composure?

Or was it because of childbirth that her body underwent changes?

I can't tell the difference between warm and cold.

She herself couldn't tell whether this was real or just because the situation was spiraling out of control and unacceptable.

Bathed in the warm yellow light, Jiang Ran stood up nonchalantly, walked around the foot of the bed, and stood under the light, quietly looking at her: "Sister, let's get a divorce. Stop bothering me."

He and Wen Ling were never from the same world.

The sooner the better. Jiang Ran had no other thoughts at the moment but to cut his losses quickly and start a brand new life that belonged to him!

"No......"

Subconsciously, Wen Ling blurted out a word. She stared blankly at Jiang Ran, never having experienced a situation so out of control.

They were separated by a bed, yet it felt as if they were separated by an abyss.

Wen Ling had a strong premonition that if she didn't take the initiative and rush over to grab him this time, she would really lose Jiang Ran!

"To you, I'm just a commodity, something you can use and then discard. There's nothing more to say about that, isn't there?"

Jiang Ran remained indifferent and calm: "I'll let bygones be bygones about you having someone knock me out. We've made things clear today. See you next Monday morning at 9 a.m. at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau!"

He left with those words, turning away without a trace of emotion.

Jiang Ran is tall and takes long strides. Although the bedroom is quite large, it only takes a dozen steps from the foot of the bed to the door.

Watching him turn and take a step, Wen Ling panicked.

Almost instinctively, she stumbled off the bed, not even bothering to put on her shoes. She ran after him, socks still wrapped around her feet, onto the carpet.

A few steps away from the door, Wen Ling successfully grabbed Jiang Ran's arm!

"Don't go..."

The words that came out were only two short words, but Wen Ling's tone was no longer as condescending as before.

It's embarrassment, it's lingering affection, it's reluctance to part, it's longing...

To be honest, it was the first time Jiang Ran had ever heard this high-ranking, aloof, and icy older sister speak in such a tone. She paused, but didn't turn around immediately.

Sensing that he had stopped moving, Wen Ling bit her lip and said with difficulty, "We can...we can be together again, like before...we can live together again..."

The fabric of the clothes was stiff, but the feel was so real. This was the first time she had touched his arm since Jiang Ran moved away.

After spying on him from the street and from afar for so long, this is the first time I've actually touched him like this.

Jiang Ran didn't turn around, but her voice rang out: "There's no need, Miss Wen, we're not suitable for each other."

"What's inappropriate about it... Do you think I'm not good enough for you?"

Wen Ling raised her face, somewhat incredulous that even after taking such initiative, Jiang Ran still refused...

There were rarely any opportunities for Wen Ling to communicate, so Jiang Ran smiled and said, "There's no such thing as being a good match or not. Come to think of it, I should be the one who's not good enough for you, right?"

So that's what he was worried about?

Wen Ling's confidence returned instantly. Without hesitation, she pressed down on Jiang Ran's shoulder, forcing him to turn around and face her!

"If that's the case, don't worry, Jiang Ran. Don't go, stay here! We'll raise Feng Die together!"
