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

"You, you, you, you..."

Meeting Jiang Ran's eyes directly, Wen Ling was stunned and couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Gone was her former aloofness. At this moment, Jiang Ran could clearly see the blush rising on her cheeks and the evasive look in her eyes.

This tension was all too obvious.

Seeing that she was so nervous that her breathing was rapid and her chest was heaving, Jiang Ran's eyes flickered, and he decided not to make things difficult for her anymore.

He sat up straight, grabbed the towel beside him, and stood up. "Okay, looks like I was just being presumptuous. Sis, I'm going to take a shower!"

"..."

Wen Ling watched stiffly as Jiang Ran walked towards the bathroom.

As the bathroom door slammed shut, Wen Ling shuddered, only then completely relaxing!

Her face was burning hot, almost as hot as it was yesterday when she had a high fever.

Without even looking in a mirror, Wen Ling could tell that her face was probably already bright red.

Jiang Ran's words kept echoing in her mind.

"I've fallen for him..."

She murmured, pressing her icy fingertips against her burning cheeks. The coolness instantly brought her back to her senses.

What's this about liking or disliking? How could she possibly fall for someone so easily?

Moreover, how can one so easily utter the word "like"?

Only after a long and devoted relationship and mutual fidelity can it be called love, right?

She and Jiang Ran had only crossed the line; they had only been in contact for a little over a week. It would be too superficial to talk about liking each other now!

Those transgressions were nothing more than attempts to have children!

Yes, everything she's doing now is just to get pregnant!

Wen Ling took out her phone, opened the app that tracks her menstrual cycle, and looked at the date marked as a week later. Her eyes darkened.

She has already bought the test kits in advance, and in another week or two, if her period is delayed, she can take the test.

Once she gets infected, she will naturally no longer need Jiang Ran.

Everything was just part of the plan!

She would never change her plans for anyone!

Wen Ling bit her lip, looking at the time on the record sheet.

This week is her fertile period.

It's said that during fertile periods, one craves hormones from the opposite sex more, and it seems that this statement is true.

So the tender feelings she's developed for Jiang Ran these past few days must have been controlled by her hormones.

It will be fine once this period passes.

Wen Ling comforted herself in this way.

Seeing that her fertile window was only two days away from ending, Wen Ling gritted her teeth. She had to make the most of these two golden days!

Once she gets through this period, she shouldn't be troubled by these emotions anymore!

"Clatter".

As she was pondering this, she heard the bathroom door being opened.

Jiang Ran slowly walked out, wrapped in a bathrobe, with a towel in his hand, drying his wet hair.

Seeing his slightly open bathrobe, revealing glimpses of his tanned abs, Wen Ling's gaze unconsciously shifted upwards a few degrees, only to notice his prominent Adam's apple...

She swallowed subconsciously, then stammered, trying to change the subject: "Are you done washing?"

"yes."

Jiang Ran responded and sat down on the other side of the sofa.

Wen Ling stared at him, her tightly pursed red lips parting again: "So fast?"

"I've been inside for over ten minutes!"

Jiang Ran muttered something and explained, "Sis, we boys usually shower very quickly. My roommates are done in 3 minutes, so I'm considered to last a long time..."

"Who wants to hear this!"

Wen Ling's face flushed, and she abruptly stood up and strode towards the elevator.

Seeing her hurried steps, as if she were fleeing, Jiang Ran knew she was going to the second-floor bathroom, and quickly asked, "Wait a minute, sister, are we still doing 'that' later?"

Visibly, the moment he asked the question, Wen Ling stumbled and almost tripped over the fluffy carpet.

After finally regaining her footing, she turned around angrily, about to refuse, when she remembered what had happened during the prime time of the past two days.

She clenched her fists, suppressing her anger, and said, "After you dry your hair, go to the bedroom upstairs and wait for me."

"Oh well."

Jiang Ran nodded and watched Wen Ling enter the elevator.

Jiang Ran only picked up the hair dryer after hearing the elevator doors close.

While drying his hair, he recalled the changes in Wen Ling during his time with her these past few days, and the nervousness he felt when facing her lessened considerably.

Especially considering that Wen Ling followed him to his house without warning after he only reported it today, Jiang Ran has realized very clearly that Wen Ling has some feelings for him.

However, this woman is really stubborn; even in that situation, she didn't back down at all...

Actually, Jiang Ran's idea was very simple.

Even though it's a contract marriage, if feelings develop after marriage, then let's stay together happily!

It's fine to start dating again, since we're already family. Even if he stops running his stall and becomes a full-time househusband, what if he stays home?

He manages the household affairs while Wenling manages the external affairs. They get married, have children, and raise the family together. Isn't that all there is to life?

It also saves us from having to deal with property division in a divorce, and from having all sorts of complications after the divorce.

To be honest, he also had feelings for Wen Ling.

After spending these days together, he could clearly sense that Wen Ling was a workaholic who had never been in a relationship and was completely focused on her career.

Although she is a bit emotionally unstable and prone to sulking, Jiang Ran admits that she is still quite adorable at times.

But this woman is just too stubborn!

Since you both like each other, why not just talk it out and make things clear...?

Jiang Ran turned off the hairdryer and stared at the ceiling, thinking that he would probably have to put in some effort to get Wen Ling to admit that she had feelings for him.

After thinking for a moment, he opened WeChat and posted a message on Moments that could only be seen by Wen Ling.

I actually prefer the warm sunshine of spring to the solemn and oppressive feeling.

If someone like Wen Ling doesn't understand human-machine interaction, how could he not understand it?

No matter how much you say, it's useless. Whether he likes it or not, he'll know once he tries it!

After clicking send, Jiang Ran didn't rush upstairs. He calmly brewed himself a pot of tea and slowly steeped a few tea leaves.

Second-floor bathroom.

After washing up, Wen Ling stood in front of the bathroom sink, blowing her long hair.

She stared at herself in the mirror and suddenly felt as if she were preparing a gift for someone else.

She even had to personally wash herself clean before placing her on Jiang Ran's cutting board...

Just hang in there for two more days.

She comforted herself with this thought until she dried her hair, then picked up her glasses from the edge of the table and put them on.

The cool touch of the gold-rimmed glasses brought her back to her senses. She stared at the closed bathroom door and abruptly shut her eyes!

When she opened her eyes again, they were sharp and cold once more!

At this moment, she was fully prepared to fight a quick battle!

However, when she reached out and opened the bathroom door, she saw Jiang Ran, who was supposed to have already gone upstairs and been waiting obediently on her bed in the bedroom, as she had planned...

But it didn't appear...
