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

"..."

The moment their eyes met upon opening the door, the air seemed to freeze.

Wen Ling's eyes were sharp, and she stared straight at him, a hint of urgency in her eyes.

In an instant, Jiang Ran felt his scalp tingle and couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

She still came...

Seriously, I'm speechless. What is this woman trying to do?!

"Hello, here's what you wanted."

The mover put the mattress down from his shoulder and said with a smile, "This thing is too big for me to carry all at once. Wait a moment, I'll be right up!"

As he spoke, the young man turned and ran downstairs.

Wen Ling's gaze fell on the mattress placed beside the door frame, breaking the awkward atmosphere first: "Why didn't you ask Liu Wan to bring some people to help you?"

"It's not very expensive, I can just buy a new one."

Jiang Ran gave a casual reply, then looked at her again, picked up the mattress and walked into the house.

He was much taller and bigger than the porter, with a great overall build. Even though he was wearing thick clothes for winter, you could still tell he was very strong when he picked things up.

He used to do this too, holding her in the kitchen...

Wen Ling's cheeks flushed slightly. After biting her lip, she silently followed Jiang Ran into the house.

She did nothing but stand quietly by the wall in the room, watching Jiang Ran unfold the mattress and spread it on the bed.

Although he didn't turn around, Jiang Ran could clearly feel the burning gaze behind him, like a python coiling around him, making his whole body tense.

"Sir, the item has been delivered. Please leave a positive review!"

At the door, the deliveryman's voice rang out, and Jiang Ran subconsciously responded.

Jiang Ran caught a glimpse of Wen Ling standing by the wall out of the corner of her eye. She didn't think Wen Ling was particularly honest. Jiang Ran subconsciously felt that Wen Ling was up to something bad.

He ignored Wen Ling and walked straight to the door, brought in a large bag of four-piece bed sheets, and closed the door behind him.

Jiang Ran tossed the package on the ground, unbuttoned his cotton coat, and casually tossed it onto the bench before immersing himself in unpacking and making the bed.

Wen Ling didn't say a word the whole time, just stood quietly by the wall watching Jiang Ran's actions, including the way he took off his coat.

Jiang Ran was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt underneath, dressed casually, revealing well-muscled arms. Unlike the men who frequented the gym, Jiang Ran had a slightly tanned complexion.

Especially against the backdrop of a white short-sleeved shirt, the skin on her arms appears even whiter, giving her a clean and refreshing look when viewed directly.

He was kneeling on the bed, spreading the sheets on the headboard.

Her buttocks are very perky.

At this moment, Wen Ling took in all the changes that had taken place over the past year.

The changes weren't that significant, but the muscles in her arms were very prominent when she was working. It was only now that Wen Ling noticed that Jiang Ran's feet were very large, almost as big as her two arms lined up vertically.

Her eye for talent is excellent; Jiang Ran, whom she chose, certainly has a great figure!

Wen Ling watched as Jiang Ran made the bed, and only after he let out a long sigh and sat down on the bed did she finally speak.

Why aren't you replying to my messages?

She had already lowered her voice considerably, and besides, she had come today to apologize and make things clear.

Even so, as long as these words came out of Wen Ling's mouth, Jiang Ran would unconsciously adopt a commanding tone.

Jiang Ran picked up her phone, somewhat impatiently saying, "There's no rule saying you have to reply to messages, is there?"

He shut Wen Ling down completely with just one sentence.

Wen Ling was so choked that her temper flared up instinctively!

Her face flushed red, and she was about to speak, but she forced herself to swallow the words back down with reason!

Don't get angry; she's here to apologize!

Don't get angry; she's here to apologize!

Don't get angry; she's here to apologize!

Wen Ling silently emphasized this to herself three times in her heart!

She took a deep breath and said, "You're right."

This reaction was unexpected by Jiang Ran.

He looked up in surprise and glanced at Wen Ling, only to see her walking straight towards him!

Almost out of physical reflex, Jiang Ran subconsciously moved a few steps toward the head of the bed.

Wen Ling's heart clenched at the sight of that subconscious step back!

"you......"

She clenched her fist, stood by the bed, and didn't move any further inside. She asked Jiang Ran, "Are you that afraid of me?"

Jiang Ran was too lazy to answer such a nonsensical question. He just looked at Wen Ling warily, pressing himself against the headboard cushion. "Tell me first what you're here for?!"

Wen Ling could clearly see the wariness in his eyes.

Wen Ling suddenly remembered that he had also resisted her touch last night. Looking back, she felt that she had already lowered her stance a lot, and she felt that Jiang Ran was ungrateful.

But now, Wen Ling recalls that if she were the one who experienced those things, she would definitely be just as scared.

Especially when this reflexive dodging action repeated itself, Wen Ling felt a sharp pain in her heart!

Only now did she truly notice, notice Jiang Ran's subtle reactions to her...

Jiang Ran is her husband.

They have a clear legal status and have indeed engaged in marital relations in reality.

What on earth was she doing before that made her only husband so terrified of her?!

"Could you please stop looking at me with that disgusting gaze?"

Feeling uneasy under Wen Ling's gaze, filled with guilt and self-reproach, Jiang Ran couldn't take it anymore and spoke up directly: "Miss Wen, what exactly do you want by showing up uninvited again?"

Almost instinctively, Wen Ling was startled, "Disgusting?"

"Nonsense! Of course it's disgusting!"

Jiang Ran responded without any hesitation.

What's going on?!

Not only did she come over without saying hello, but she also looked at him with that guilty look, which, combined with Wen Ling's mature and charming older face, made it seem like she was condescendingly giving him alms.

After bullying him, he came all the way over to apologize. Does he think he's a dog who'll turn back at the slightest provocation?!

Jiang Ran's face clearly showed disgust.

Wen Ling was taken aback for a moment, then murmured, "You...do you think I'm disgusting?"

"..."

Jiang Ran didn't respond, but just pursed her lips and turned her head away, deliberately avoiding looking at her.

In an instant, Wen Ling, whose figure had already become out of shape due to anxiety, looked as if she had been hit by a truck, and disbelief flashed in her eyes!

The better Jiang Ran's figure appeared in her eyes, and the more disgusted she looked, the more Wen Ling felt she couldn't stand still!

Almost instinctively, she strode forward, grabbed Jiang Ran by the collar, and demanded, "Explain yourself! How did I do anything disgusting?! What made me disgusting?! What gives you the right to say that to me?!"

Here again, here again!

A leopard can't change its spots!

Jiang Ran lowered her head speechlessly, then retorted sarcastically, "What do you think, sis?"

Wen Ling was stunned for a moment, and followed Jiang Ran's gaze downwards. When she saw that her hand was grabbing Jiang Ran's collar, her rationality returned in an instant!

She quickly let go, frantically wiping her hands on the hem of her clothes, head down, and with great difficulty, managed to utter a few words through clenched teeth: "I...I'm sorry..."
