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

"It's not like you're getting it for free, you can..."

Wen Ling wanted to say something like, "Give me a kiss," just like she had before, but the hard-won improvement in their relationship made her swallow those words.

She changed the subject, quickly coming up with another excuse, "Just consider it as me giving you half of the villa in Junlan Mansion in advance. It's marital property, didn't we agree on that before?"

Jiang Ran accepted this reason.

"Okay, then I can go see the apartment beforehand. But, Sister Wen, you're not going to change your mind, are you?"

Jiang Ran chuckled and glanced at Wen Ling.

Wen Ling was lying on his back, her cheek very close to his. He turned around suddenly, almost brushing her nose.

They are very close.

Looking at Jiang Ran's flawless, youthful face, Wen Ling felt her cheeks burning. She subconsciously opened her eyes and said, "I always keep my word."

"If you're worried, I'll have someone send you a document when we get back later, and we can sign the contract remotely..."

She hurriedly added another sentence.

"Okay, then I'll do it on my phone."

Jiang Ran nodded and said with a smile, "But why did you suddenly decide to buy me a house?"

Wen Ling looked into the distance, her cheeks slightly flushed, her eyes filled with a hint of malice: "I'm going to sell that villa."

Jiang Ran was taken aback: "Sell it? It's only been a little over a year since we bought it. If we sell that kind of secondhand villa, we'll lose a lot of money, right?"

"I don't lack money."

"..."

Ok.

Also.

The villa was originally purchased by Wen Ling. Although it was considered part of his marital property, Wen Ling did have the right to dispose of it.

It's good that it's sold.

After all, too many unpleasant things had happened in that villa.

There weren't many people on the observation tower, and the space was large enough.

Wen Zhi stood at the elevator entrance, still holding the camera and pressing the shutter to take pictures of Wen Ling and Jiang Ran.

This time, Deng Lanlan didn't look in that direction anymore.

It was a rare treat to come out and enjoy the scenery, so Deng Lanlan leaned over the railing and looked down.

Looking out over the distant scenery, it is magnificent and unobstructed.

Noticing Fang Kai standing beside her like a wooden stake, Deng Lanlan raised her hand and pulled him back, somewhat speechless. "Stop staring, look at the scenery for a while."

"But President Wen, she..."

"She's right there. Mr. Jiang is carrying her on his back, and President Wen's leg is injured. Where could she possibly run off to?"

"oh......"

"..."

It was already evening when we returned from the observation tower.

After disembarking, Jiang Ran put Wen Ling back into the wheelchair and pushed her towards the exit.

On the way, watching the setting sun, Wen Ling initiated a conversation with Jiang Ran, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

What should we eat?!

Looking back at Deng Lanlan and Fang Kai, they had both been out with him all day.

With those two added, there are five of them now.

"Let's have hot pot."

This is the most convenient and quickest meal.

"hot pot?!"

Wen Ling recalled the hot pot she had with Jiang Ran a few days ago. "Do you like hot pot?"

"It's alright. I was thinking that it would be convenient for the five of us to have hot pot."

"Five?!"

Wen Ling was taken aback and turned around in surprise, only to see Deng Lanlan and Fang Kai following behind her.

Oh well, I'm in a good mood today.

Besides, since Jiang Ran has said so, let's eat together.

Aside from eating with her family, Wen Ling has never had the experience of eating with outsiders.

Perhaps it will be a good experience?

She smiled slightly. "Okay, then I'll have Lanlan call and have someone prepare, and then..."

"What else do we need to prepare? Fang Kai and I will go to the supermarket to buy groceries. Perfect timing, you guys go back first, there are taxis outside, we'll just take one and be back in no time!"

Interrupting Wen Ling, Jiang Ran directly stated his plan.

Having to be served every day for the past few days, Jiang Ran feels like she's almost lost the joy of being human.

Sure enough, he still preferred a life of hard work.

It's great to have something to do.

Although Wen Ling really didn't want to be separated from Jiang Ran, even for just a little while, she couldn't bear to refuse him when she saw how eager he was to try.

"Um."

She agreed.

After exiting the ticket hall, Jiang Ran stopped in front of the nanny van and waited for Wen Zhi and the others to arrive.

Wen Zhi was still fiddling with the camera in her hand when Deng Lanlan, wearing high heels, quickly stepped forward and, slightly out of breath, took the initiative to open the car door.

As the car door opened, Wen Ling teased, "Fang Kai, you and Jiang Ran go to the supermarket together."

"Why?!"

Wen Zhi was taken aback. "Sis, aren't we going back together?"

"Let's go back first. Jiang Ran will go buy groceries, and we'll have dinner together tonight."

As Wen Ling spoke, she gripped the armrest of her wheelchair and prepared to stand up.

Deng Lanlan, who was closest, quickly grabbed Wen Ling's arm and gave Jiang Ran a look.

Jiang Ran understood and planned to help Wen Ling into the car first, but Wen Ling raised her hand to stop her, saying, "Let's go buy groceries. You don't need to help me get into the car."

As she spoke, she grabbed the car door with her other hand, stumbled a few times, and said to Deng Lanlan, "What are you standing there for? Help me into the car!"

"Ah... Oh!"

Realizing what was happening, Deng Lanlan nodded quickly and helped Wen Ling into the car.

After today's event, Wen Zhi really didn't understand it.

What are those two doing?!

"Miss Zhizhi, please get in the car too, I'll go get the car."

After getting out of the car, Deng Lanlan opened the car door and gestured to the driver.

Wen Zhi's lips twitched. She glanced at Jiang Ran, but ultimately decided to get in the car first.

On the way back, Deng Lanlan drove.

Jiang Ran hailed a taxi on the roadside, and after getting in with Fang Kai, they headed to the most luxurious supermarket in the area, as suggested by the driver.

After the car arrived at the detached villa.

Wen Ling was helped out of the car and put into a wheelchair, which Deng Lanlan pushed her inside.

Wen Zhi followed beside her, but by now she had lost interest in the camera.

She looked at Wen Ling and asked, "Sis, what did you two talk about today? Jiang Ran seems to be treating you differently!"

"..."

The further Wen Ling walked into the villa's courtyard, the more she regretted her actions as she looked at the familiar surroundings.

She regretted her words today, saying "sleep in separate beds."

Damn it...

But Jiang Ran was still so happy...

"sister?"

Seeing that her sister remained silent and the atmosphere was somewhat somber, Wen Zhi bent down and leaned close to her face. "Why aren't you saying anything?"

"..."

Feeling distressed, Wen Ling looked at her younger sister's confused face and, after holding back for a long time, could only manage a sigh.

"well......"

Wen Zhi's eyelids twitched: "Why are you sighing? I thought you and Jiang Ran were getting along really well today. That guy even carried you on his back the whole time, how sweet!"

As she spoke, Wen Zhi waved the camera in her hand: "Look, I took a lot of photos for you!"

"..."

As if all her strength had been drained, Wen Ling sighed deeply and said with a bitter smile, "That's because I promised to sleep in a separate bed from him..."
