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

Seven days is too long.

There are a full 168 hours, and each hour has a full 60 minutes...

Wen Ling remembered that the last time she met Jiang Ran and had physical contact with him was four days ago.

Even though the most unstable week of her fertile window had passed, she should theoretically not need Jiang Ran anymore. However, the more she thought of the name "Jiang Ran," the more she felt a tightness in her chest, and her emotions became unpredictable.

Wen Ling's gaze fell on the Rolex on the gleaming desk, and the keys to the G-Class car next to it.

These were insignificant to her; they were just gifts she had casually given to Jiang Ran back then.

Wen Ling never imagined that she would one day send something out and have it returned.

Her eyes darkened, and she picked up her phone and sent a message to Jiang Ran.

Wen L: [Come with me to meet my parents tomorrow at noon.]

Jiang Ran, who was still in bed reviewing the video edited by Huang Xiao, suddenly noticed a pop-up notification on his phone. He subconsciously clicked on it and saw that it was a message from Wen Ling.

Jiang Ran paused, then subconsciously typed back: [Tomorrow might not be an option; I still have to set up a stall at the construction site to sell boxed lunches.]

Jiang Ran guessed that Xia Yunxi should have already handed the car keys and the Rolex to Wen Ling by now. He didn't know why she suddenly asked him to come along to meet her parents, and she did so in such a commanding tone. Jiang Ran's first reaction was naturally to refuse!

After waiting for about five minutes, Wen Ling's message popped up again: [I've already met your family.]

The implication is that I've already given you face, now it's your turn to give me face.

Jiang Ran understood perfectly. Without hesitation, he typed back: [That's because you just ran over there without saying anything.]

It made him so nervous at the time, Wen Ling was completely baffled!

Upon seeing Jiang Ran's message on the other end of the phone, Wen Ling was so angry she almost threw her phone away!

She had already made her point so clearly, but Jiang Ran insisted on pretending not to understand!

What does that mean?!

Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you moved out of here?

Enraged, Wen Ling showed no mercy: [Believe it or not, I'll make your stall and that construction site over there disappear!]

River:[......]

Jiang: [Sister, do you think this behavior is polite? How about we get a divorce right now? I don't want a single penny of your property; I'll leave with nothing, okay?]

When Wen Ling saw the words "leave with nothing," her heart tightened, and she instantly calmed down!

Jiang Ran is a person with his own independent thinking. Just like now, he is not comfortable living here, so he moved out immediately without even needing to discuss it with her.

They still keep in touch, isn't it because they haven't gone through the divorce proceedings yet?

She got divorced after finding out she was pregnant; as for meeting the parents, it was just a formality...

Wen Ling was silent for a moment, then finally typed: [What will it take for you to come with me to meet my parents?]

Upon seeing the message from Wen Ling, Jiang Ran immediately raised an eyebrow.

It was truly unexpected; this was the first time he had ever seen Miss Wen change her personality and even ask for his opinion!

Jiang Ran smiled slightly and typed casually: [The day after tomorrow, I've already notified everyone in the group chat tomorrow. The workers there will all come to buy food.]

Wen L: [What time the day after tomorrow?]

Jiang Ran: [Didn't you say noon? Then let's do it at 9 am the day after tomorrow, the earlier we go, the earlier we come back!]

Wen L: [Will you arrive at the villa at 9 o'clock, or should I ask Liu Wan to pick you up at 9 o'clock?]

"..."

I had already witnessed Wen Ling's meticulousness, but I never expected her to be this meticulous.

Jiang Ran: [Let Assistant Liu pick me up; I don't have a car.]

After sending the message, he seemed to remember something and quickly typed: [By the way, do any of your family members drink?]

Although Wen Ling was puzzled, she still replied with a "yes".

Jiang Ran typed again: [Then have Liu Wan park outside this complex at 8 AM the day after tomorrow. I'll be waiting at the gate on time.]

Wen L: [Hmm.]

The conversation ended there, and Jiang Ran was now scratching his head in frustration.

As the woman, Wen Ling didn't need to bring anything when she visited his home last time. But he was the man, and Wen Ling was probably keeping it a secret from her family, just like him. As the son-in-law, he should bring something when he visits his parents-in-law's home for the first time.

Jiang Ran rolled off the bed, rummaged through his suitcase, and finally found the bank card that Wen Zhi had given him last time in a hidden compartment.

This card contains the money Wen Zhi had left over from buying jewelry for Wen Ling, and it still has nearly two million...

After all, Wen Ling had given him such a luxurious villa, and she had given him a lot of face last time. He couldn't possibly embarrass Wen Ling, could he?

In Jiang Ran's view, although Wen Ling was usually domineering and had recently started to interfere with him inexplicably, he was also very clear that Wen Ling could be considered his benefactor.

After thinking it over, he decided to use the money tomorrow to buy a few more packs of cigarettes and a few cases of Moutai.

This was already the most expensive thing Jiang Ran knew...

The next day, Jiang Ran got up early as usual to cook and set up his stall at the agreed time.

Because the workers had been notified in the group chat beforehand, they all arrived quite well. Jiang Ran was busy until 2 p.m. before she could properly finish serving the food.

However, just as he was packing up, Jiang Ran noticed a shadowy figure looking at him furtively from around the corner not far away.

"Is it an illusion?"

Jiang Ran scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

"Brother Jiang Ran, what did you say?"

Beside him, Huang Xiao fiddled with the camera, watching Jiang Ran with curiosity.

Seeing the figure disappear again, Jiang Ran subconsciously shook his head: "It's nothing, maybe I was just seeing things."

As he spoke, he placed the large pot on the cart and said to Huang Xiao, "By the way, tomorrow is the weekend. Tell the workers in the group chat that I'm taking a day off tomorrow and won't be setting up my stall."

"OK."

Huang Xiao nodded and waved to Jiang Ran, "Well then, Brother Jiang Ran, I'll go back and edit the video now!"

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

Jiang Ran gave a word of advice and then pulled the cart toward the apartment.

The next morning, at 7 o'clock, Jiang Ran, who had become completely accustomed to going to bed early and getting up early since she started selling boxed lunches at her stall, got up very early.

After washing up, he took the bread and milk he had bought the night before from the small refrigerator attached to the apartment and arrived downstairs on time as agreed.

At exactly 8 o'clock, Liu Wan drove her BMW to the front of the residential area.

Jiang Ran opened the back door and stepped into the car.

Looking in the rearview mirror, Jiang Ran saw Liu Wan with dark circles under her eyes and a lifeless expression. A twitch appeared on her lips as she pulled a loaf of bread and a glass of milk from her bag and handed them to her. "Sister Liu, how about some breakfast?"

Liu Wan didn't stand on ceremony and simply raised her hand to take it.

She didn't start the car immediately. Instead, she unwrapped a loaf of bread and started stuffing it into her mouth, then suddenly asked Jiang Ran, "So, when are you planning to make up with my young lady?"
