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

It's really a bit too funny. Such a blatant class leap is right in front of us, and Wen Ling is so outstanding.

Expecting people to like him?

Jiang Ran wasn't the kind of shameless rogue. To be honest, if Wen Ling's sister, Wen Zhi, hadn't appeared, he wouldn't have made a third attempt...

Who would have thought that Jiang Ran would suddenly say something like that, and even say that she wanted to move out?

Where to move to?

Was what she said really that bad?

If Jiang Ran hadn't secretly met with her family and conspired with Wen Zhi to test her, she wouldn't have said a single word to a man like Weng Bingyun!

Shouldn't Jiang Ran be in a hurry to find out what her relationship with Weng Bingyun is?

Isn't he even a little curious?

Or is it that even now, when he brings up the idea of ​​"moving out," it's still a test from him, a way Wen Zhi taught him to see if she would still try to keep him as before?

Knowing full well her sister's wicked nature, Wen Ling instantly sneered!

"OK!"

She stood in the light, her tone as cold as ever, "Then you should move in these next few days! The portion of the dowry your mother gave you is still in your hands. If you don't succeed this month, then come back next month during your fertile window!"

As the sunlight streamed through the French windows and fell on Wen Ling, Jiang Ran's eyes dimmed completely.

He didn't say anything more, just nodded silently, turned around and went downstairs.

He did not take the elevator.

In the two weeks since he met Wen Ling, he has enjoyed too many conveniences.

There were so many that Jiang Ran had forgotten what it felt like to walk up stairs.

Holding onto the elevator handrail, the icy touch rose in Jiang Ran's palm, making him feel dizzy for a moment.

It felt like I'd just had a long dream.

From the beginning of his breakup and being pressured by his parents to get married, to meeting Wen Ling and agreeing to her contractual demands, to now going their separate ways.

In a plane, two perpendicular lines intersect only once, and then the points of intersection will only become increasingly distant.

No matter how persistent you are, it's all meaningless...

When Xia Yunxi heard a noise coming from the stairs in the restaurant area on the first floor, she subconsciously looked over and saw Jiang Ran moving down the stairs step by step as if she had lost her mind.

"Jiang Ran?"

Xia Yunxi called out subconsciously, but saw that Jiang Ran seemed not to hear her and was still lost in thought with her head down.

Completely different from when he was rushing upstairs just now, only 10 minutes have passed. Did Jiang Ran get scolded by Miss Wen?!

Xia Yunxi realized what was happening and quickly picked up the orange juice and went over. "Here, you were in such a hurry upstairs, you haven't had this yet!"

"..."

Jiang Ran was taken aback by the sudden appearance of orange juice in front of him. He looked up blankly and saw Xia Yunxi smiling at him, but he could see the worry in her clear eyes.

Jiang then belatedly realized what was happening, reached out and took the orange juice, and drank it all in one gulp.

He didn't speak, he just stood at the top of the stairs in a daze.

From the moment Xia Yunxi met Jiang Ran, he had always been understanding. Although he usually spoke in a certain way at occasional seminars at school, he was always smiling when dealing with his classmates. But now, he had a completely lost and dejected expression on his face.

Knowing that Jiang Ran might have encountered something unpleasant, and that it was very likely related to Wen Ling, Xia Yunxi wisely chose not to ask any more questions at this time.

After watching Jiang Ran drink the orange juice, she smiled and said, "As long as you're not sick or broke, there's nothing in this world that can't be overcome. If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know. I'll definitely do my best!"

As she spoke, she took the empty cup and headed towards the kitchen.

Watching her retreating figure, her high ponytail swayed back and forth, only now she was dressed as a maid instead of a school uniform...

Memories flood back to my university days.

Although they were old classmates, he and Xia Yunxi didn't actually have much interaction back then. Throughout their entire university years, they barely exchanged more than twenty sentences...

Little did they expect that they would meet again at the Wen family home after graduation...

"Yunxi, how about we call up a few old classmates and go clubbing tonight?"

He didn't mean anything by it; he just wanted to find a place to vent his frustrations.

However, upon hearing this, Xia Yunxi turned around and asked, "Are you going to a bar to dance?"

"Yeah, where else could we go?"

Jiang Ran scratched his head. Back in college, Wu Qihang, the most unreliable guy, would drag a few of them to bars every time he was heartbroken. At the time, he and Pan Haisheng always thought that they should spend more time in the library instead.

Unexpectedly, he now also wants to vent his frustrations in those noisy, red-light districts...

Seeing Jiang Ran's thoughts drifting away, Xia Yunxi put down the plate in her hand, bit her lower lip, and said, "But... I've never been to a place like that before."

"It's okay if you haven't been before. It depends on whether you want to or not. If you don't want to, that's fine too. I'll go dance for a while by myself."

Jiang Ran's tone was indifferent.

Hearing this, Xia Yunxi instinctively felt that she had spoiled Jiang Ran's mood, so she quickly said, "Of course I want to go, but..."

"But what?"

"but....."

Xia Yunxi clenched her hands into fists at her lower abdomen, twisting her slender white fingertips together until her face turned red, before nervously whispering, "It's just... could you please not call other classmates...?"

"Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear you."

Jiang Ran was taken aback, then quickly walked towards the restaurant.

Seeing Jiang Ran suddenly approach, Xia Yunxi's face flushed crimson, her lower lip turned white from biting it, and she nervously repeated, "I mean, could you please not call other classmates...?"

Jiang Ran blinked, looking completely confused: "Aren't we going to invite others? It's no fun jumping around by myself!"

"No, I can stay with you!"

As if she had mustered up a lot of courage, Xia Yunxi suddenly raised her voice!

She raised her face, her clear eyes sparkling as she looked at Jiang Ran. "How about this, after Miss Wen finishes dinner, the two of us will go out to eat! I'll choose the place, okay?!"

More than that, Jiang Ran was concerned about: "Can it jump?"

"It should be about right!" Xia Yunxi blinked, looking like she was ready to go all out. "Don't worry, I know what you mean. I'll choose the location. It's a way of thanking you for helping me so much these past few days!"

Without giving Jiang Ran a chance to refute, Xia Yunxi skipped and jumped into the kitchen after saying this.

Seeing this, Jiang Ran didn't care about her "I understand what you mean." He just wanted to find a place to vent his anger, even if there was a punching bag in front of him, he'd be happy to throw a few punches at it...

The second floor.

Back in the office, Wen Ling was unable to get back into work mode.

The thought of Jiang Ran's distraught state earlier brought back a wave of unease to her heart...
