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

"..."

The room was quiet. The French window was half open, and a cold wind blew outside, causing the branches to sway and rustle.

Wen Ling did not respond, but sat there quietly, as if her spirit had been drained.

"sister?"

Wen Zhi's strong voice rang out, and she even murmured, somewhat confused, "Is the signal bad here? That shouldn't be the case. I specifically came out of the airport to call you... Sis?"

"......Oh."

Wen Ling suddenly chuckled softly and touched the sofa cushion with her hand.

The soft sofa cushions were still warm, retaining Jiang Ran's body heat.

very warm.

But the person is gone.

It was just here a moment ago...

Everything was fine at the beginning, before, and during that period.

Jiang Ran, didn't you agree to stay last night?

He agreed, although he didn't sleep in the same bed with her. But he stayed here, right here in this bedroom, and agreed to be alone with her.

Why did things turn out this way...?

"Wenzhi, tell me, why?"

Wen Ling didn't understand. Her choked voice was hoarse and weak, like a deflated balloon, all her original energy had been drained away.

"Sister, you..."

Wen Zhi rarely... no! She could say she had never heard her older sister speak in such a tone in her entire life, as if her whole being had been hollowed out. Even during the most difficult period of her late pregnancy, she had never felt so powerless.

Compared to her initial desire to see her sister make a fool of herself and to have some fun, Wenzhi's first reaction upon actually hearing her sister's voice was heartache.

Her heart clenched. Wen Zhi hurried to the airport's VIP lounge, making room for herself, and asked, "Sister, what's wrong? What's wrong?"

Wasn't she perfectly fine when she left?

No matter what happened between my sister and Jiang Ran, Jiang Ran is a good person, and now that they have a child, they should just talk things out. It's not necessary to hurt my sister like this.

Why did he leave? Why did he still want a divorce?

Wen Ling pressed her hands on the sofa, never before feeling the temperature drop so clearly, like time that could never be turned back, and her hands could only warm up a little bit.

"Why, why are you leaving?"

Wen Zhi was taken aback, her brows furrowing instantly: "No, sis, what's wrong?"

"..."

Not hearing Wen Ling's reply, Wen Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and a thought instantly dawned on her: "Oh my god, sis, you didn't force him to go back to the villa with you, did you?"

"How can this be considered coercion?"

Wen Ling didn't understand. She murmured, "This was originally our marital home. When he comes back, it's like he's come home."

"..."

Wen Zhi's vision went completely black!

She knew her sister had never been in a relationship and didn't know how, but before she left, she sensed that her sister was love-obsessed. When girls like her get love-obsessed, they'll give the other person whatever they want; they're just infatuated!

So Wen Zhi thought that as long as her sister took the initiative, this relationship wouldn't be insurmountable, right? Little did she know that her love-struck sister would directly resort to underhanded tactics!

The initial heartache had worn off, and Wen Zhi was now speechless.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, she became serious: "What else? Sis, what else did you do?"

"I didn't do anything, just asked him to stay and keep me company, to eat together like we used to..."

Wen Zhi was silent for a moment, then said, "There's more than that, isn't there?"

Wen Ling frowned: "What do you mean by that?"

"I didn't mean anything by it, but I've met Jiang Ran before. If it were simply what you said, how could he not even have a meal with you?!"

Wen Zhi's eloquent voice rang out.

She had always thought that she understood her sister best, but she never expected that once she was in love, she would not even be able to understand her sister.

Fortunately, it was her older sister who was involved, and as an outsider, Wen Zhi was still able to see the situation clearly.

Hearing this, Wen Ling instantly felt like the whole world had abandoned her. The person on the other end of the phone was her own sister, so how could even her sister be criticizing her like this?!

How could this possibly be her fault?!

She didn't do anything!

Wen Ling was momentarily angry, and she vented her anger, along with her anger at Jiang Ran's sudden departure, on Wen Zhi: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense! Go do your own thing!"

She said that and hung up the phone.

Wen Ling was very annoyed. In the end, it seemed like she was the one who was guilty. All she wanted was for Jiang Ran to stay and have a meal like before, that was all...

Could it be that she really misjudged Jiang Ran and misjudged his character? Was it because she had poor judgment?

Wen Ling couldn't understand it, so she threw her phone aside and lay down on the sofa cushion, feeling sad inwardly.

On the other end, listening to the "beep beep" sound from the phone, Wen Zhi was speechless and felt that something was very wrong!

Originally, she thought things were simple: they had a child, and her sister's temper had improved slightly. She believed that as long as her sister took the initiative, they would reconcile.

So, to avoid the two of them reconciling and then targeting her for her past antics, she quickly made up an excuse and ran away.

But now it seems that things are not like that at all!

Wen Zhi quickly created a small group chat and added Li Shu, Liu Wan, and Deng Lanlan to it. Then she sent out a group chat message!

Several people entered the voice chat one after another.

Wen Zhi quickly asked, "Everyone come out! Tell me what happened!"

In the chat box, Liu Wan's voice, tinged with confusion and the sound of turning pages, rang out: "Second Miss, weren't you on a trip?"

Wen Zhi, with her fiery temper, retorted, "Travel my ass! If I don't keep thinking about it, my sister's love will wither before it even begins!"

"You guys hurry up and tell me my sister's schedule after I left. I want to know what happened!"

She quickly added, "Aunt Li, you're closer, you go first!"

After a long silence, Li Shu's voice slowly broke through: "Since leaving the hospital, Miss has been at home. Mr. Jiang came back once and met her in the bedroom on the first floor, but it seems they had an argument. Afterwards, Miss went to Jiang Ran's rented place..."

Wen Zhi frowned, focusing on the key words: "What argument?"

Li Shu shook her head: "I don't know, I didn't go in and I didn't hear very clearly, but I heard the word 'divorce' appear quite frequently..."

"Oh, and then?"

"Then......"

Liu Wan coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Then yesterday, Miss told me to take some men and bring Mr. Jiang back..."
