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

Yeah, why should she care so much about him?

If he wants to set up a stall, then let him. That's his personal life, and it has nothing to do with her.

Her relationship with Jiang Ran was at most a contractual one. Once the mission was completed, they would divorce and dissolve the contract, and then never have anything to do with each other again, right?

Seeing Wen Ling in a daze, Jiang Ran's eyes flickered. He walked around the desk and went to her. "Hey sis, I know you've never been in a relationship, and I often don't know why you're angry. But I think people need to communicate. You're always sulking like this, and I don't know why, so I can't find a solution!"

He spread his hands, wearing an innocent expression.

As he approached step by step, his height of over 1.8 meters forced Wen Ling to look up. When she met his "simple" and innocent expression, Wen Ling felt like she was being ridiculed!

Her hand, resting on the desk, clenched into a fist, and she asked in a cold, harsh tone, "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean by saying I've never been in a relationship? Just because I've never been in a relationship, does that mean you're going to ridicule me like this?"

Wen Ling's tone was as cold as ice, yet it was laced with a torrent of furious anger.

Jiang Ran felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this. He twitched his lips, utterly speechless, and said, "No, why would I laugh at you?! It's like this if you've never been in a relationship. You were always so busy with work before, and you didn't handle relationships well, so it's understandable that you kept things bottled up. What I mean is, speak up, we need to communicate!"

"Sister, can you even understand communication?!"

As Jiang Ran spoke, he raised his hand, pointed to Wen Ling's mouth, and then pointed to his own mouth.

Hearing Jiang Ran's rational analysis, Wen Ling felt utterly defeated!

Despite being younger than her, he always seemed calmer than her during their conversation.

He even calmly and logically analyzed things with her...

Was he teaching her how to do things?

Wen Ling, who is usually decisive and efficient, was furious!

"I don't need to communicate with anyone!"

She slammed her fist on the table, her tone sharp and brooking no argument!

Jiang Ran never imagined that one day she would be unable to communicate with anyone...

He looked at Wen Ling speechlessly, opened his mouth, but didn't know how to start a conversation.

Wen Ling spoke, and with one sentence, she completely shut him down.

How is he supposed to talk to me like that?!

We can't talk!

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Ran standing there, stunned. His cool masculine scent wafted around her, and several times, her desire to go too far surged uncontrollably into Wen Ling's mind.

My fertile window has clearly passed.

Half a day has passed since the most intense period of hormonal distress began.

But the scent emanating from Jiang Ran still made Wen Ling uncontrollably recall every moment of their passionate night together...

She hates who she is now!

This feeling of being unable to control herself was almost driving her crazy!

"Get away from me! Don't come so close!"

Wen Ling gritted her teeth and angrily cursed out!

"..."

"oh."

Jiang Ran remained silent for a moment, then simply responded with a faint sound, without retreating.

The atmosphere in the office instantly froze.

Jiang Ran looked down and only saw Wen Ling's long hair tied up. She was always capable and simple when she was working, just like the design of this villa, which had a perfect sense of geometric order.

However, she wasn't wearing a suit today; instead, she was wearing a simple yet elegant gray velvet pajama set. But her breasts were noticeably larger than he usually saw...

Is this woman really that angry?

He just sets up a stall on the roadside, and he's already deleted all those previous videos...

Uh?

Video from side C?!

Could it be that Wen Ling is jealous?!

Jiang Ran, belatedly realizing what was happening, instantly showed a look of astonishment!

He suddenly looked at Wen Ling, only to see her clenched fists as if she wanted to crush her palms...

"Sis, stop pinching! Your nails are digging into my flesh!"

Subconsciously, Jiang Ran raised his hand and wrapped his large hand directly around the back of her hand.

The sudden warmth on the back of her hand made Wen Ling's whole body stiffen. She looked up abruptly, her usually cold eyes flashing with unprecedented shock and astonishment!

Jiang Ran pretended not to see her expression and chuckled to herself, "Hey sis, why are you suddenly being so nosy about me today? Are you jealous because you saw me filming those kinds of videos?"

Wen Ling's brain completely shut down!

"Sis, don't rush to refute me! When two people are together and truly interested in each other, sometimes they'll get angry if the other person doesn't reply to their messages immediately. There's a general term to explain this psychological phenomenon: possessiveness!"

Jiang Ran remained as calm as a machine.

He watched as Wen Ling's usually composed and capable face visibly flushed red, and he found her incredibly adorable!

He thought older women were all experienced, but he never expected there would be such a clueless woman who blushes after just a few flirty words.

The contrast is so huge...

Seeing her like this, Jiang Ran couldn't help but smile.

Looking at Jiang Ran's smiling face, Wen Ling's words kept echoing in her mind.

Possessiveness.

Has she begun to possess Jiang Ran?

Is this what liking someone is?!

She looked at Jiang Ran in surprise, only to see his smiling eyes...

"Who gave you permission to laugh!"

She was furious that she was being lectured by a younger brother who was six years younger than her!

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh!"

Having already figured out her temper, Jiang Ran gave in and covered her mouth with both hands.

Seeing the undiminished smile in his exposed eyes, Wen Ling instantly felt like she was being laughed at!

Even the younger brother saw it and laughed at him!

"Go ahead and set up a stall if you want, do you really think I'd like to interfere?"

She angrily yelled at Jiang Ran, even shoving him in the stomach in a fit of embarrassment and frustration, "Get out! You're not allowed to come up here again without my permission!"

There's no such thing as a third or fourth time's mistake. You can do something once or twice, but never a third or fourth.

After hearing her tell him to leave so many times, Jiang Ran couldn't tell if she was serious or just being stubborn.

If he's serious, they're from completely different worlds anyway, so once the contract is done, he can just leave!

If he's going to be stubborn, then so be it. They won't be able to communicate at all if things continue like this. He'll just do whatever she tells him to do!

Jiang Ran wouldn't do something so shameless.

Besides, Wen Ling has already made things this way, so there's really no need for him to stay here any longer.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran shrugged indifferently: "Okay, goodbye then, sister."

He left without looking back after saying that.

As the office door closed and the room returned to its usual quiet, Wen Ling looked completely bewildered!

No, he... he's already gone?!
