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

I've vented my anger.

Wen Zhi originally thought that since her sister liked Jiang Ran and they had a child, once her sister and Jiang Ran met and talked things out, everything would be back to normal, and that incident of her being shameless would be over.

But she never expected that the "face-to-face" communication method adopted by her sister and Jiang Ran would actually lead to him being taken back.

Even now, my sister still doesn't realize her mistake!

Li Shu, Deng Lanlan, Liu Wan, and their parents and grandfather—the former are people who receive wages and need to eat, and the latter are elders. The younger generation's romantic affairs should never involve the elders.

No one in this group could bring it up; the only one who could was!

Who would have thought that Wen Zhi, who was always good-tempered, would lose her temper like this? At this moment, Wen Ling, who was already furious, was completely enraged!

"What do you mean by trampling on him? It's all your fault! You gave him money, deliberately letting him confess his feelings to me. Aren't you all in cahoots to see me make a fool of myself?!"

"Yes! It was me! But so what? If you don't want to be laughed at, why didn't you refuse on the spot?! You must give Jiang Ran hope, and then provoke him in the way men find most unbearable!"

Wen Zhi's face turned red with anger. It was the first time she had ever lost her temper like this, and she felt like she had aged ten years, like a shrew.

As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Ling on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

Yes, why didn't she refuse on the spot?

She remembered that when she saw Jiang Ran's distraught expression, she felt a little bit of pleasure.

But isn't the subsequent rejection the same thing? They're both rejections, so what's the difference?

Wen Ling didn't understand.

Wen Zhi took a deep breath and asked again, "So, sister, why didn't you refuse them on the spot? Refusing them on the spot would at least have saved them some face, right?"

"I have no idea......"

Wen Ling seemed to have lost her temper instantly. She murmured, "These two kinds of rejections, aren't they all for the same purpose?"

"Snap!"

Wen Ling heard a crisp slapping sound coming from the other end of the phone!

Then, Wen Zhi's voice rang out, utterly exasperated: "I'm speechless! How can that be the same?! Do you know how much of a blow it is to a man to talk about finding a new father for his child?!"

Wen Ling murmured, "I was just joking, I didn't really do anything..."

"Okay, okay!"

So that's where the problem lies!

Wen Zhi said "good" three times in a row, and then began to give an example, "So, sister, suppose in the beginning Jiang Ran asked you to have a child on contract, and after that you fell in love with him and wanted to pursue him, he brought over another woman, saying he was looking for a new mother for the child, how would you feel?!"

"So he's looking for...?"

Before she could even utter the word "death," Wen Ling seemed to have finally come to her senses.

If the roles were reversed, and Jiang Ran treated her this way, it would be considered kind of her not to bury them separately!

So that's it~

Hearing Wen Ling's voice suddenly soften, Wen Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, dating isn't just about one person's wishes. A good relationship requires mutual respect, and more importantly, learning to put yourself in someone else's shoes!"

Wen Zhi's long, drawn-out words rang out one after another, and all those past events, like a projector, kept replaying and surfacing in Wen Ling's mind!

So, she really went too far back then. Her words and actions were the final straw that broke Jiang Ran's back...

So, from that day on, Jiang Ran stopped taking the initiative with her, and he stopped smiling at her. He was so eager to move out, and even when he accompanied her home to see his parents, he was so perfunctory.

Was it from that time that Jiang Ran started to dislike her?

When she was pregnant, she cleverly kept it a secret from him, and even secretly monitored him near the street...

Wen Ling couldn't imagine how Jiang Ran spent the entire year after that incident.

Even now, she's using this disrespectful method to force Jiang Ran back, acting like she's being unreasonable, constantly demanding that he not get a divorce...

He's a really good person. If it were her, she wouldn't have waited so long to turn her back on him. She would never have cooperated with things like accompanying him to meet his parents and the family...

As if her Ren and Du meridians had been opened, Wen Ling finally circled back to the starting point after all the twists and turns!

However, the consequence of having his self-esteem completely shattered was that the guilt he had suppressed for a year surged up into his heart like a madman—

In just a moment, Wen Ling's rationality was shattered!

"I... I didn't mean it like this... I thought I was just going to say something to provoke him, I really didn't want it to turn out like this..."

Wen Ling's emotions collapsed instantly, like a dam bursting. Her nose stung, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice choked with sobs several times.

Wen Zhi still felt sorry for her sister, especially after hearing her sobs. Wen Zhi sighed, her tone softening, and said with utmost seriousness, "Sister, I understand you don't understand these things, but now that things are like this, just tell me honestly, do you like Jiang Ran or not?"

"..."

Whether I like it or not... how can I admit that? If I say I like it, wouldn't that make me feel inferior?

Just like last night, she was inherently inferior to Jiang Ran, forcing herself to be so humble...

Wen Zhi, who knew Wen Ling all too well, knew that her sister's silence was a reflexive consideration of her pride for a fleeting moment.

There's no way around it; a person's personality doesn't change suddenly, so it's normal to have such hesitation.

Wen Zhi said directly, "Sister, to be honest, if you really like him, just listen to me. I'll help you pursue him. Your sister has seen it all; chasing a man is a piece of cake for me!"

"But if you don't like him, let go as soon as possible, meet with him to get a divorce certificate, and then stop bothering him and cut all ties completely!"

She had to ask this question; her sister had to truly confront her inner self before she could completely let go of her pride.

Otherwise, if she keeps acting coy and hesitant, her behavior will drive everyone around her away, and her sister will be completely plunged into the abyss!

"I......"

"In short, is it so hard to say whether you like him or not?! Compared to your stubborn pride, you're more willing to accept that Jiang will no longer be a part of your world..."

"like."

Before the word "ran" could even be uttered, Wen Ling's voice dropped, but it was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Wen Zhi didn't hear clearly: "What?"

"..."

"Can't you just say what you mean?! What kind of hero are you, beating around the bush like that?!"

The provocation tactic wouldn't work on someone like Wen Zhi, but it worked perfectly on Wen Ling, especially on a hot-tempered and fragile strong woman like her.

"I like him, I like him, I like him! Wen Zhi, there's a limit to how much you have to interrogate me! How many times do I have to say it?! I like him, I don't want him to leave me!"
