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

Didn't you see it?

Wen Ling sat on the sofa, holding her phone and scrolling through the chat history.

The past has been deleted; all that remains is her conversation with Jiang Ran before yesterday.

With only a handful of messages hanging on the screen, Wen Ling suddenly felt a little irritated!

She had forgotten to ask Jiang Ran for their chat history because she had kidnapped him so suddenly yesterday!

She sat there for an hour, until 3 p.m., but Jiang Ran still hadn't replied to her message.

Wen Ling was getting restless.

It would take an hour to walk from Junlan Mansion Villa to Jiang Ran's apartment. Jiang Ran left around 11 o'clock, a full four hours have passed. Even if she had to crawl, she should have arrived by now!

Perhaps he wants to buy a new four-piece bed sheet set?

The thought popped into Wen Ling's mind; she remembered that she had asked Liu Wan to pack up all of Jiang Ran's belongings and bring them over last night...

Did he go shopping?!

But he still has to pay for what he buys!

Wen Ling is in a hurry to see Jiang Ran and tell him face to face that she didn't mean it that way, and that she forced him to come here because she liked him so much.

And then there's all that stuff from the past, she has to explain—it was all a misunderstanding, absolutely a misunderstanding!

Moreover, even if we don't meet in person, Jiang Ran could at least reply to a message!

Five minutes later, Wen Ling couldn't wait any longer. Without hesitation, she dialed Jiang Ran's WeChat number.

I hate you, I resent you, for you brought us separation; how can I not be caught in the rain?

Tears soak my heart, bringing with them the scenery after the rain.

After the rain, the sky clears, and I'll stop thinking about you~

【...】

The little music icon on the phone screen kept spinning, and the song "The Scenery After the Rain" played in a swirling motion.

This was the first time Wen Ling had taken the initiative to call Jiang Ran.

The female singer's voice is quite nice, but the lyrics are a mix of sadness and cheerfulness.

Wen Ling frowned as she listened.

Jiang Ran, do you like songs sung by girls?

For some reason, Wen Ling suddenly felt a little annoyed!

It would be fine if a boy sang it, but why did it have to be a girl...?

Moreover, what nonsense was she singing, something about "being in love and breaking up only lasting a while"? She didn't agree to break up, much less divorce!

"..."

The melody ended there.

Jiang Ran didn't answer.

That's impossible! How could he not even check his phone? He's clearly not working at this time of afternoon!

Wen Ling stared at her phone for a few seconds, then stood up and left the bedroom.

Li Shu had been in the living room the whole time. When she saw Wen Ling come out, she quickly stood up.

"Miss, would you like to dine? I'll go heat up the food now..."

"No need! Go and tidy up the food, or divide it into two portions..."

Wen Ling gave a brief instruction, then glanced out the French windows and commanded, "Isn't Lanlan outside? Go, put her in her car. I'm going out in a bit."

After giving the order, she went straight to the dressing room.

Nothing else, all she wanted now was to see Jiang Ran as soon as possible. She wanted to go and see what Jiang Ran was doing, why he hadn't replied to her messages for so long, and whether something had happened to him on the way!

Li Shu was stunned for a long time before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

The food in the room had gone cold and was no longer edible, so Li Shu didn't go back into the bedroom. Instead, she went straight downstairs to the kitchen to prepare a fresh meal.

cloakroom.

Wen Ling stood in front of the large mirror, looking at her slightly plumper figure, which was now noticeably larger overall. Even in the loose velvet nightgown, there was still a bulge in her lower abdomen.

Lifting half of it, Wen Ling could see that her lower abdomen was loose and sagging, with half of the skin hanging down.

Even though Wen Ling had crammed on essential knowledge about pregnancy complications before getting pregnant, she still couldn't accept that her body shape had changed drastically.

Her figure has changed.

It is no longer as beautiful and shapely as it used to be.

For the first time, Wen Ling felt frustrated and even a little insecure.

A year has passed, and Jiang Ran's appearance hasn't changed much. But she has become pregnant and given birth during this year, and she looks haggard.

She stood in front of the mirror in silence for a long time, gazing at the suits that used to fit her perfectly. At this moment, she no longer had the courage to pick them up.

In the end, Wen Ling chose a thick, well-fitting cotton pajama set and put it on. Without daring to look in the mirror again, she went straight downstairs...

......

Didn't you see it?

No, not at all.

Back in her apartment, Jiang Ran was sitting on her dry bed, searching for a four-piece bedding set on a food delivery app.

He thought at least they would leave him a small mattress, but he didn't expect that crazy Wen Ling would be so heartless and actually take the entire mattress away!

Only the two small stools next to the table are still there, and the table itself is still there.

Fortunately, all the clothes are in my suitcase, so I don't need to buy underwear.

He was browsing through budget mattresses when he saw Wen Ling's message pop up.

Did I invite him to dinner again?

Is this some kind of trap, brother?

Jiang Ran glanced at it, then swiped up with his thumb to continue searching for mattresses. A moment later, another message popped up.

You made a mistake and you need to apologize?!

Are you kidding me? It's probably not Wen Zhi who sent it from her phone. How could Wen Ling, that complete lunatic, say something like that?!

Jiang Ran continued to swipe up, ignoring it.

Just after he finished selecting and ordering the four-piece bed sheet and duvet cover set, a call popped up from Wen Ling.

Jiang Ran had reached the point where the mere sight of the character "Wen" sent chills down her spine!

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move for a long time, and even became suspicious that someone was outside the door.

Jiang Ran waited patiently for the phone to ring, and when the phone screen automatically switched to normal, still worried, she even ran to the front door and peered through the peephole for a long time.

Jiang Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was outside the door.

Thank goodness, what happened last night didn't happen again; it was terrifying!

She even started threatening him with his cousin, Chen Jingyu...

However, Wen Ling's sudden initiative made Jiang Ran feel a little uneasy.

He looked back at the bedroom and suddenly felt that he should move.

Wen Ling knows his address now. If she comes knocking again, just like last night, he won't even have a chance to fight back!

But after thinking for a moment, Jiang Ran felt that moving was not worthwhile.

First, the rent here hasn't expired yet. Second, even if he really moves, what difference will it make? He still has to set up a stall at the construction site downstairs. For a rich woman like Wen Ling, moving won't do her any good!

After much deliberation, Jiang Ran decided not to move.

The four-piece bed sheet and duvet cover set that Jiang Ran had ordered had arrived. Hearing the sound of things being moved outside the door, Jiang Ran opened the door.

However, appearing in the stairwell outside the door at the same time as the mover was Wen Ling, wrapped in a fluffy pajama set...
