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

Chapter 190 It's quite dark under this lamp.

"You don't like raw food?"

At the dining table, Wen Ling had already returned to her seat. She watched Jiang Ran eat only coconut chicken throughout the meal and asked a question.

"Um......"

Jiang Ran nodded and said truthfully, "I cook large batches of food, so I have to go to the market to buy meat every day. I have to wash the raw meat many times after I get home, and it feels very sticky, so I have a bit of a dislike for raw meat..."

Listening to his narration, Wen Ling suddenly lost her appetite.

Although she says she's not a picky eater and has occasionally eaten raw foods like salmon and marinated seafood before, the delicious taste suddenly lost its appeal when she heard these details.

Wen Ling glanced at the sashimi on her chopsticks, then silently looked at the coconut chicken in front of Jiang Ran. "Is this chicken delicious?"

"It doesn't have much flavor; it seems like you need to dip it in sauce, otherwise it's just sweet..."

To be honest, it's not even as good as the stir-fried chicken made by the restaurant owner downstairs.

It has a perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste.

Jiang Ran is a native northerner, so it's normal that he's not used to these foods. He only ate a little before putting down his chopsticks and didn't eat any more.

Seeing that he hadn't eaten much, Wen Ling frowned frequently.

That's quite a big guy, eating so little, how can that possibly work?!

Seeing Wen Zhi come out of the restroom, Wen Ling put down her chopsticks. "Pack your things, let's go out."

Wen Zhi was taken aback: "Go out? Now?"

"Um."

"But I haven't finished eating yet! You guys should at least wait until I'm done!"

"..."

Seeing her older sister staring at her with a frown, Wen Zhi smacked her lips. "Alright, alright, then let Yunxi put the rest of the dishes in the kitchen..."

Speaking of this, Wen Zhi immediately became interested. She glanced at Jiang Ran and said with a smile, "By the way, Jiang Ran, I remember Yun Xi hasn't eaten yet either, right? Anyway, there's a lot of food, why don't you go and call her out?"

When Wen Zhi said these things, her face was expressionless, but the corners of her lips were turned up and there was a hint of amusement in her eyes.

Jiang Ran didn't detect anything wrong with what she said.

Putting down his chopsticks and getting up from his seat, Jiang Ran went straight to the servants' room.

Wen Ling, who witnessed all of this, said expressionlessly, "Why make him make a trip when he can just send a message?"

Wen Zhi blinked, just looked at her sister and clicked her tongue, without explaining.

After all, there's no point in explaining!

Given her sister's love-struck nature, if she had discovered it, she would have found out long ago. Why is she still completely in the dark and unaware of anything?

It's quite dark under this light.

A short while later, Jiang Ran appeared in the restaurant with Xia Yunxi.

Wen Zhi blinked before speaking, "Yunxi, eat some of what's on the table, then put the rest in the fridge. My sister, brother-in-law, and I are going out shopping!"

As if on purpose, Wen Zhi emphasized the words "sister and brother-in-law".

Unexpectedly, Wen Zhi only saw Jiang Ran's somewhat disapproving expression, while Xia Yunxi's expression remained unchanged.

"There's not much to pack, let's just go out."

Wen Ling didn't have time to think about these things. Her mind was full of the idea Wen Zhi had just mentioned, and whether or not she should hold Jiang Ran's hand when they went out.

Just like when they went downstairs, it seemed that Jiang Ran wasn't very resistant to her initiative.

Perhaps she should have been more proactive.

That's what Wen Ling thought, and she also went around to Jiang Ran's side.

"Okay, let's go then. The shopping mall isn't far from here, and there are plenty of duty-free shops. Let's have a good look around today!"

Wen Zhi casually picked up her small bag, took out two sun hats, and handed one of them to Jiang Ran without any hesitation.

Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment, then saw Wen Zhi wink at Wen Ling.

"..."

Fine.

Jiang Ran took the sun hat and put it on Wen Ling's head.

While still pondering when to hold Jiang Ran's hand and which part to hold, Wen Ling suddenly felt a weight on her head, which surprised and delighted her.

Seeing that Jiang Ran had already taken a step, Wen Ling moved quickly and grabbed Jiang Ran's arm, walking alongside him.

Following behind, Wen Zhi raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear, watching with interest as the two walked out side by side.

As the two walked out of the restaurant and brushed past Xia Yunxi, Wen Zhi muttered, seemingly unintentionally, "Oh dear, how could such a loving couple get divorced?"

She left without even looking at Xia Yunxi's reaction.

They looked like a family of three.

They are the real family of three.

Inside the restaurant, Xia Yunxi stood in front of the table, looking at the entire table of food that she simply couldn't afford.

Just like the rich people she had seen when she went to work with her mother, they ate expensive food, and if they couldn't finish it, they would throw it away. Putting things in the refrigerator was just an excuse to take them out and throw them away when they went bad.

Life begins at the moment of birth, which is a watershed moment.

Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth, while others struggle their whole lives but can never reach the same birth point as others.

Just like her.

Xia Yunxi used tweezers to pick up a piece of raw fish and put it in her mouth. The sticky, sweet taste made her unable to discern any difference.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Xia Yunxi's eyes darkened, and she finally put all the fresh food into the refrigerator.

She only ate the small amount of coconut chicken left in the pot on the table.

......

When the car arrived at the mall, although it wasn't the tourist season, the mall was still very crowded due to the tax-free policy.

Wen Ling rarely attends such lively occasions; she usually informs Liu Wan about any needs she may have.

This is my first time shopping at a mall.

Besides, she was with Jiang Ran.

She skillfully grabbed Jiang Ran's wrist once again and led him into the women's clothing store under Wen Zhi's guidance.

As a regular customer, Wen Zhi immediately showed off her black card upon entering the store.

The receptionist immediately became respectful upon seeing them and led the three into the VIP room inside.

After tea was served, the receptionist brought three tablets and handed them to Wen Zhi, Wen Ling, and Jiang Ran respectively.

"We recently received a new batch of mannequins. Sir/Madam, do you need both men's and women's clothing?"

The receptionist was very respectful.

Wen Zhi nodded, glanced at Jiang Ran and Wen Ling, and said directly, "Help them input their height and weight."

"OK."

Like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, Jiang Ran watched as the receptionist came forward and turned on the tablet for him.

Wen Ling was the same; it was her first time buying clothes in a physical store, and she looked down at the sales assistant's actions.

"Sir/Madam, just enter your height and weight. You can choose clothes here, and we will have a model help you try them on shortly."

"Wow, there are even people to help you try on clothes."

Seeing this behavior that was beyond his comprehension, Jiang Ran couldn't help but mutter a complaint under his breath.

Beside him, Wen Ling glanced at him. It was rare for her and Jiang Ran to empathize with each other. Suppressing her excitement, she added, "This is the first time I've heard this either..."
