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

Since things had come to this point, Jiang Ran had essentially acquiesced to this condition.

The resources Wen Ling can bring are countless times better than the resources he can bring to Chen Jingyu.

Moreover, even if I have to move out eventually, it's perfectly reasonable for Chen Jingyu to stay here before the divorce.

However, the prerequisite is that Chen Jingyu must make a serious study plan.

Jiang Ran looked at Wen Ling, "How do you plan to arrange her daily schedule?"

Regarding this matter, he wanted to hear Wen Ling's opinion first. If it was reasonable, he could better persuade his aunt, Chen Jingyu's mother.

Wen Ling naturally understood Jiang Ran's probing. She tapped her fingers lightly and said calmly, "If you agree, I will arrange her daily schedule according to the standards I set when I was 18."

Hearing this, Jiang Ran nodded in relief.

Jiang Ran was well aware that Wen Ling was indeed the only truly successful woman by his side, especially since her knowledge and experience surpassed his own. Chen Jingyu wouldn't suffer by following Wen Ling!

"it is good."

He nodded and looked at Chen Jingyu, "Have you finished eating? If you have, I'll take you home so I can talk to your mother face to face."

Chen Jingyu, who had been hoping to stay here, didn't hesitate at all: "I've finished eating, brother, we can leave now!"

"Okay, but you go upstairs and wait for me for a while. I need to get my clothes ready."

Jiang Ran was still preoccupied with his relationship with Xia Yunxi. He shoveled the rice into his mouth haphazardly and said to Wen Ling, "Then, Miss Wen, I'll be leaving the table now."

Wen Ling didn't say anything, but silently finished the rice in her bowl, then got up and went back upstairs.

Seeing her sister-in-law go to the elevator, Chen Jingyu quickly shoveled the last bite of her food into her stomach and ran after her.

bedroom.

Jiang Ran casually picked out a few pieces of clothing and piled them on the ground without cleaning them, just waiting for Xia Yunxi to come over.

A short while later, there was a knock on the door, and Jiang Ran went to open it.

With the same pale face as before, Xia Yunxi appeared at the door, her eyes slightly red, as if she had just been crying.

Jiang Ran's heart skipped a beat, and he closed the door after Xia Yunxi came in.

Seeing Xia Yunxi silently bend down and start picking up her clothes, Jiang Ran couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Yunxi, do you remember what you told me yesterday...?"

"..."

Xia Yunxi paused in picking up the clothes, then continued picking them up as if she hadn't heard.

Seeing her actions, Jiang Ran really didn't know how to bring it up. But, yesterday Xia Yunxi mustered up the courage to confess to him, so no matter what, he had to take the initiative to make things clear today, and also to explain what they should do next.

If it's true, as Xia Yunxi said, that she has liked him for many years and that he plans to date her after his divorce, then Xia Yunxi shouldn't be allowed to suffer so much injustice here for no reason.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran's words were also very direct. He didn't like to hide anything. "Yunxi, what I want to say is that if what you told me yesterday is true, then I will deal with my marriage with Wen Ling as soon as possible."

He has already made himself very clear.

Xia Yunxi raised her head, her red-rimmed eyes misty as she stared at Jiang Ran. "Will it... take a long time?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ran finally felt relieved.

He said earnestly, "Her request is to get pregnant, and I think it will happen soon."

"..."

Xia Yunxi didn't say anything more, but just bit her lower lip and stared at Jiang Ran with a wronged look on her face.

Jiang Ran was fully aware of this!

He looked at Xia Yunxi and said very seriously, "However, before that, I think there is a big problem with the way the three of us are getting along right now."

"What?"

"It's because we're too close."

Jiang Ran put it bluntly, "Like this time, my cousin came over. My family basically doesn't know that my relationship with Wen Ling is just a contractual one. These people are all variables. Although I will try my best to avoid them appearing here, my cousin Chen Jingyu is going to stay here now."

"If this continues, you'll inevitably suffer injustice."

Jiang Ran didn't want to disappoint Xia Yunxi, especially after Xia Yunxi confessed her feelings to him. He actually had plans to lean towards Xia Yunxi's side.

Although he doesn't have any feelings for Xia Yunxi yet...

However, once he's truly divorced and starts dating, if both of them have a good experience, then it would be natural for them to get together.

Seeing Jiang Ran's serious expression, Xia Yunxi bit her lip and murmured, "I can endure it..."

"Like today, I'll just pretend I didn't hear it, it's not a big deal, is it?" she said, forcing a smile onto her pale face.

Seeing this, Jiang Ran's heart tightened. He sighed, "It's not a matter of whether I can bear it or not, it's that I can't just stand between the two of you like this, do you understand?"

"What I mean is this, Yunxi, we only have two options now. One is for me to move out of this house, and we can still keep in touch afterwards. The other is for you... to quit your current job..."

When the second option was mentioned, Jiang Ran's voice became much softer.

In fact, he preferred the first option, since he knew it was difficult to find a job these days.

Moreover, even if he and Xia Yunxi really got together, it wouldn't be good for him to make Xia Yunxi sacrifice her own choice.

So his plan is to move out!

That's the most straightforward and efficient way!

Upon hearing this, Xia Yunxi's brows suddenly furrowed. She looked at Jiang Ran, hesitating before saying, "Jiang Ran... I can't quit this job..."

"Of course I know, that's why I plan to move out!"

Jiang Ran casually agreed, pondering what time to go out to look for a room that afternoon.

Looking at Jiang Ran, Xia Yunxi suddenly clenched her fingers, hesitated for a long time, and then slowly said, "No, Jiang Ran... I don't want you to move out either."

"If we don't move out, the three of us will share a room?!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran instantly erupted in anger!

He stammered, "Yunxi, haven't you figured out the situation yet? Wen Ling and I are legally married, and you're Wen Ling's hired maid. You also like me. Under these circumstances, and I'm still living here, isn't this just creating chaos?!"

"But I don't want you to have to move out because of me! I don't want you to suffer because of me!"

Xia Yunxi couldn't hold back either and said directly to Jiang Ran, "It's my business that I like you. I said I can endure it, I can wait until after your divorce to be with you..."

"So you think I just want to stand by and watch you suffer, right?!"

Jiang Ran sighed. "Yunxi, do you even know what it means to confess your feelings to me now, and for me to agree to be with you after my divorce?"

"..."

"That's called an extramarital affair!"

"......I know."
