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

What she wants to do is all too clear.

Wen Ling saw everything clearly. She glanced at Jiang Ran and said, "I'll have Aunt Li deliver the groceries. There's no need to go out."

Li Yan's eyes flickered, and she looked at Jiang Ran defiantly: "Xiao Ran, is this young lady staying for dinner too?"

Xiao Ran?

Calling her that so intimately in front of her?!

Wen Ling's face instantly darkened, looking quite unpleasant.

She glanced coldly at Jiang Ran, a sneer playing on her lips, and said with a hint of danger, "What? Aren't you going to invite your ex-wife to a farewell dinner?"

"..."

The atmosphere immediately became tense.

Jiang Ran was silent for a moment, then said, "Then you can make the arrangements. Just have someone deliver whatever you want to eat."

He suddenly felt a little annoyed.

What are those two women up to? Today was supposed to be the day he moved in, unpacked, rested, and made some career plans, but now...

do not know.

Jiang Ran felt very annoyed.

It was rare to hear Jiang Ran offer to have food delivered, so Wen Ling gave Li Yan a provocative glance and took out her phone.

After fiddling with it for a while, she put her phone down and glanced at Jiang Ran, who was silent.

I had a feeling that Jiang Ran was in a low mood.

Wen Ling's eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice to ask him, "Are you in a bad mood?"

"no."

Jiang Ran shook her head and changed the subject, asking, "Have you made all the arrangements?"

"Yes, Aunt Li will be here in a bit."

On the other side of the sofa, Jiang Ran and Wen Ling were chatting enthusiastically.

This doesn't seem like a sign of impending divorce at all, especially with a child in the stroller.

Wen Ling even directly told the servants to bring the food over.

They wouldn't even blink an eye before taking this luxurious villa in their divorce settlement, complete with a personal chef and maid...

Li Yan narrowed her eyes slightly.

She felt she couldn't just sit and wait to die any longer.

Li Yan's eyes darkened, and she suddenly stood up, smiling at Jiang Ran, "Xiao Ran, I'd like some juice. Could you please go and buy me a bottle?"

"Huh?"

Jiang Ran was taken aback, and Wen Ling also looked over.

Li Yan forced a smile. "I saw a supermarket at the entrance of the community when I took a taxi here. Could you also get me a bottle of mints?"

Li Yan glanced at Wen Ling and raised an eyebrow at her.

It means she wants to get Jiang Ran away so she can speak to Wen Ling.

Wen Ling could certainly understand it.

"Go buy some. I forgot to bring diapers with me today, so you can buy a few packs for the baby while you're at it."

Wen Ling also spoke up.

We still have to make him make the trip.

Rather than watching the two women's strange reactions and conversations, Jiang Ran preferred to escape from here for the time being.

He answered and went out.

Only Wen Ling, Li Yan, and Jiang Fengdie in the stroller remained in the living room.

Breaking the silence, Wen Ling spoke first, "What do you want to tell me?"

"I still don't know how to address you." Li Yan smiled. The exchange just now had made her realize that Wen Ling was at about the same level as her, and even stronger in terms of aura.

Only an immature young girl would try to seduce Jiang Ran directly. Li Yan is almost thirty years old, so there's no need for that approach.

The best course of action would be to communicate directly with Jiang Ran's ex-wife and find out exactly why they decided to divorce, so that she could address the root cause of the problem effectively.

Of course, what she really wanted to know was the identity of this ex-wife in front of her, someone who could afford a nanny, a cook, and even solve everything with just a phone call...

Li Yan's sudden change in attitude made Wen Ling frown. She stared at Li Yan and said briefly, "My surname is Wen."

"temperature?"

This surname is not common.

Especially considering that the Wen family is the only one in Beijing that can afford such an expensive villa, Li Yan has only ever heard of.

"Are you from the Wen family?"

Li Yan spoke up subconsciously.

Wen Ling raised an eyebrow. "Looks like you're not completely clueless after all."

"The Wen family..."

The Wen family, the wealthiest family in Beijing, is currently headed by a man known as the "Cash King of Beijing."

Li Yan didn't know anything about the others, because at her level, they were simply no match for her.

She climbed up step by step on her own, while Wen Ling had an entire family to rely on.

Seeing the smile on Wen Ling's lips, Li Yan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

Fortunately, fortunately she didn't voice those thoughts directly, and fortunately she didn't intend to actually resort to such dirty methods...

But Jiang Ran's ex-wife turned out to be from the Wen family.

Cold sweat beaded on Li Yan's forehead as she stared intently at Wen Ling and asked, "So, Miss Wen, you never actually planned to divorce Jiang Ran, did you?"

Surprised that Li Yan had seen through it so directly, Wen Ling raised an eyebrow. "You're not stupid after all."

"After working in human resources for so many years, if I can't even see this much about human relationships, then I've really wasted my life."

After receiving a positive response from Wen Ling, Li Yan gave a bitter smile, "But why did Jiang Ran tell his parents that he wanted to divorce you? He even said that your relationship started with some kind of contract..."

Upon hearing the word "contract," Wen Ling's face visibly paled.

Wen Ling looked down at Jiang Fengdie and said in a muffled voice, "I just made a mistake at the beginning; I hurt him."

Oh, then that's easy to explain.

Seeing Wen Ling finally reveal her pain without trying to hide it, Li Yan understood what was going on.

She glanced at the luxurious villa, then looked intently at Wen Ling. "Miss Wen, if you don't mind, I do have a way to help you."

Wen Ling was taken aback: "You'll help me?"

Li Yan smiled and said, "Yes."

Why?

Wen Ling narrowed her eyes, looking at her with great vigilance.

Li Yan remained calm, saying lightly, "I did consider pestering Jiang Ran just now, but after learning you're from the Wen family, I abandoned that idea..."

"I can help you win Jiang Ran's heart."

"...?"

Wen Ling was stunned.

Li Yan continued, "I don't know if you're around my age, but from my conversations with Jiang Ran lately, he's always absent-minded. Sometimes he just disappears mid-conversation, and he's always in a low mood. Although he hasn't said it, I can guess it's because of you."

"Because of me?"

"Of course! A person will lose their appetite when they fall in love with another person. Although Jiang Ran has never told me about you, I can tell that he likes you. He just hasn't realized it yet."

He likes you.

Li Yan's voice fell with such decisive force, striking Wen Ling's heart.

After all this back and forth for so many days, she's been in so much pain every day. But Jiang Ran, who's been staying home the whole time, isn't having an easy time either!

Was he also suffering during this time?!

The hostility dissipated with surprise, and Wen Ling forced herself to calm down. She looked at Li Yan and asked, "Why are you helping me? Especially as Jiang Ran's blind date?"

Wen Ling minded it.

She was very bothered that Li Yan's appearance was because she was the same as her, having met Jiang Ran through a blind date.

This should have been a memory between her and Jiang Ran; no one else should have been involved...

Li Yan remained calm. Her eyes flickered, and she got straight to the point: "I want an opportunity to study abroad."
