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

As the fragrant fried rice was served, the restaurant owner's gaze fell on Wen Ling. He smiled and struck up a conversation with Jiang Ran: "Young man, is this your girlfriend?"

Jiang Ran, who returned with two bottles of drinks in her hand, was taken aback and said with an awkward smile, "No, no, this is, well, she's my sister."

"Oh, I see! No wonder she looks much older than the girl you brought last time."

The shop owner smiled and patted Jiang Ran on the shoulder, saying, "I added an extra egg to both of your orders as a bonus. This is your first order today!"

Jiang Ran felt a warmth in her heart and nodded with a smile, "Thanks."

He didn't pay much attention, since he often ate here and was familiar with the owner.

However, when these words reached Wen Ling's ears, the sense of security that had just arisen in her heart vanished instantly, replaced by a sense of crisis. She stared intently at Jiang Ran, her breathing becoming rapid with tension.

The girl they brought along?!

who is it?

"Chen Jingyu?"

In her anxiety and frustration, Wen Ling asked directly.

The voice held anger and accusation; the familiar, interrogative tone made Jiang Ran uncomfortable. He opened his soda as he said, "Sis, this doesn't seem to concern you, does it?"

This is his personal privacy, why ask such questions?!

The confrontation before yesterday was still vivid in her mind. Wen Ling was stunned for a moment, but her rationality returned instantly!

"oh."

She nodded, trying to calm herself, and said, "No, I was just asking casually."

Jiang Ran didn't continue the conversation, but simply wiped the spoon for Wen Ling and handed it to her, saying, "Eat up, this fried rice tastes best when it's hot!"

As he spoke, he had already picked up his chopsticks and eagerly stuffed the food into his mouth, wolfing it down and enjoying it immensely.

Wen Ling couldn't help but swallow, suddenly realizing that this bowl of golden rice, which only cost 10 yuan, tasted even better than the rice made by her family's top chef...

She picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and put it in her mouth.

I don't know if it's because I didn't eat breakfast, but when I took a bite of rice, the aroma of the egg spread throughout my mouth, it was so delicious!

Seeing Wen Ling silently spooning food into her mouth, Jiang Ran smiled and asked, "How is it? Does it suit your taste?"

"It's acceptable."

"I knew it! I eat here all the time, but we're too early today, the sausages aren't ready yet. Otherwise, we'd like another sausage. Fried rice with sausage and black chicken soup, heavenly!"

It's back, everything is back.

That's the feeling! His smile and his incessant chatter made Wen Ling's heart flutter with joy!

That's exactly the feeling she wanted. No matter where they ate or had fun, Jiang Ran would enthusiastically share his experiences and his life with her.

We absolutely cannot let him go.

Wen Ling became even more determined in this idea, and it was during a break from eating that she asked Jiang Ran the question she had always wanted to ask.

"You, the person you mentioned last time, the one you had a crush on, have you been in contact with them?"

"?"

Jiang Ran paused in her eating, looking at Wen Ling warily: "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly asking about this...?"

Fearing she might offend Jiang Ran, Wen Ling quickly explained, "It's nothing, I was just curious. Are you planning to be with her after you divorce me?"

She stared down at her food, trying her best to make her voice sound calm and even, while secretly hoping that Jiang Ran would give her a negative answer.

However, things are never smooth sailing.

Jiang Ran's answer still made Wen Ling's heart clench!

"We don't really keep in touch often, we just occasionally meet up for a meal."

She's been going through so much hardship lately, and they still managed to secretly meet up for dinner?!

Wen Ling stared intently at Jiang Ran, and the food in her mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

How come she didn't know?! Where did this woman come from? Or is Jiang Ran trying to get back together with Qin Yiyao?!

In an instant, countless names flooded Wen Ling's mind.

Qin Yiyao, Chen Jingyu, Huang Xiao...

Didn't she clean all these people up?!

Where did it come from?!

Would he treat that woman the same way he treated her, wiping the table and serving her food?

......

Seeing that Wen Ling suddenly fell silent and stared at him through her large sunglasses, her eyes dark and unfocused, Jiang Ran suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He explained, "Sis, what are you doing? Didn't we agree not to interfere in each other's private lives?"

Yes, she said that.

Being hit by a boomerang was a truly unpleasant experience, and Wen Ling never imagined that one day she would regret the things she had said in the past.

There's nothing she can do; she's inherently at a disadvantage in this matter!

"Um."

She responded listlessly, feeling that the rice she ate next tasted like cardboard.

But she couldn't let it go, and still asked, unwilling to give up, "Do you two just meet up for meals?"

Is that all?

This was already her biggest concession. If it involved holding hands or feeding each other, Wen Ling felt that she would probably flip the table right now.

Fortunately, Jiang Ran nodded this time. "Yes, we're not divorced yet. Even if we agreed to live separately after marriage, I still have to be responsible for her, right?"

"You're going to take responsibility?!"

Wen Ling's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"..."

The noise startled the kitchen owner, who peeked out from behind the counter.

Jiang Ran blinked and said seriously, "Of course I have to take responsibility. I'm not divorced yet. How can I, as a married man, flirt with someone? Wouldn't that make me a scumbag?"

"..."

That made perfect sense, and Wen Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Her emotions were indeed a bit too extreme. Jiang Ran is a very upright person, and of course he wouldn't do anything reckless.

However, from what he said, Wen Ling was also very clear that she had to win Jiang Ran over in these thirty days, and she absolutely could not get a divorce. She absolutely could not give anyone else a chance!

When they had almost finished eating, Wen Ling saw that Jiang Ran's plate was empty, so he put down his spoon. She knew that once he finished his meal, their meal would be over.

Jiang Ran will be leaving, and she should go home too.

At this moment, Wen Ling felt a pang of regret. Why had she agreed to come to a restaurant with Jiang Ran for snacks? If they had stayed at a restaurant, at least they could have spent more time together...

She didn't want to part so soon, so she spoke up again, "Before you leave, are you really not planning to see Feng Die?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ran frowned slightly and reflexively asked, "Sister, are you planning to use the child to threaten me?"

This question caught Wen Ling off guard. She hadn't thought of that at all; she was just looking for an excuse to continue spending time with Jiang Ran...

Seeing the wariness in Jiang Ran's eyes, Wen Ling suddenly realized a problem at that moment!

If Jiang Ran's opinion of her doesn't change, then whatever she says will be wrong...
