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

"?"

"Are you crazy? Me, getting back together with her?"

Almost subconsciously, Jiang Ran blurted out a sentence.

Liu Wan paused in her bread-eating, glanced at Jiang Ran's surprised expression in the rearview mirror, and sighed, "I'm telling you, some things should be left in the dark. Like my young lady, you'll never meet anyone better than her in your life."

"Then why don't you stay with her?"

"...Brother, I'm a woman."

"..."

The conversation stalled there. Liu Wan sighed deeply, took a big gulp of milk, and complained to Jiang Ran, "I'm about to die from overwork."

Jiang Ran blinked and blurted out, "What does this have to do with me?"

"If you make up with my lady, I won't have to be on call 24/7!"

Liu Wan looked like she was about to cry but had no tears.

Seeing Jiang Ran's bewildered expression in the rearview mirror, she almost burst into tears!

Starting a few days ago, the young lady has been acting like she's gone mad. Even though her work ends at 7 p.m., she insists on making conference calls until almost midnight every day, and then she gets up at 7 a.m. the next morning...

She initially thought something serious had happened at the company, but it wasn't until the young lady told her yesterday that she needed to pick up Jiang Ran today that she learned Jiang Ran had already moved out...

No wonder Miss has reverted to her old workaholic ways. Liu Wan shoved the last bite of bread into her mouth with a fierce shove, and muttered to Jiang Ran, "Okay, shall I drive now?"

"Wait!"

Jiang Ran quickly stopped her, "Take me to that tobacco and liquor store across the street first, I need to buy something."

Liu Wan's lips twitched: "You still smoke?"

Jiang Ran shook her head: "No, don't worry about it, just take me there."

"oh."

Tobacco, alcohol and grocery store.

As planned last night, Jiang Ran bought three cases of Moutai and three packs of Huazi cigarettes.

After thinking for a moment, he asked the merchant for a few boxes of tea and some fresh fruit.

In his mind, this was already considered a lavish gift.

There were a lot of things, and the shopkeeper helped carry them out.

Seeing that Jiang Ran had brought so many things and asked her to open the trunk, Liu Wan hesitated for a moment before nodding and opening the trunk.

At 9:00 AM sharp, the two arrived outside Building 7 of the Junlanfu villa area.

After waiting for two minutes, Wen Ling, still dressed in that white suit, neatly opened the back door.

Seeing Wen Ling dressed like this for the first time in a long time, Jiang Ran couldn't help but twitch his lips, beginning to wonder if Miss Wen's entire wardrobe consisted of white suits...

When she rode with Jiang Ran again, Wen Ling's face remained expressionless. However, when she smelled Jiang Ran's familiar scent, her heart still raced.

"What are you standing there for? Drive!"

Noticing that Liu Wan hadn't started the car, Wen Ling gave an unfriendly order.

"Yes."

Liu Wan nodded quickly and stepped on the gas!

After leaving the villa area, the car drove onto an overpass, and Jiang Ran noticed that it was heading towards the suburbs.

He had assumed that Wen Ling's parents would live in a villa like theirs, or perhaps a villa in the city center, but it seems that's not the case now.

suburbs......

"Which direction are we heading in now?"

Jiang Ran asked a question subconsciously.

The two women in the car remained silent, and the car was quiet.

Jiang Ran noticed that Liu Wan was driving attentively, while Wen Ling beside him had her right leg crossed over her left knee, her body leaning back with the back of her head on the seat, and her eyes closed as she rested.

Although it was a little awkward, Jiang Ran ultimately didn't say anything more.

The car traveled for about an hour and a half.

They passed many intersections along the way, and towards the end, the car's heater made Jiang Ran drowsy.

When he was woken up, Jiang Ran looked out the car window with a dazed expression.

It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't looked, but one glance was enough to wake Jiang Ran completely!

Between the large walls in front of us, a plaque hangs above the main entrance, bearing the four large characters "Yunqi Mountain Villa". Behind the walls, in a vast garden, sits a magnificent and luxurious villa.

As Liu Wan drove in, the garden scenery unfolded before her eyes, with several detached villas resembling those in Junlan Mansion scattered around...

Her family lives in the mountain resort?!

Jiang Ran had only heard of such a magnificent place in rumors, and those who owned villas were all very elegant people.

Moreover, he is exceptionally wealthy and powerful!

Jiang Ran subconsciously glanced at Wen Ling, only to see her eyes narrow slightly, her gaze also falling on him, as if she were sizing him up.

Jiang Ran, whose charm had been completely dispelled by her decisive and efficient demeanor, suddenly felt that forgotten tension resurface at this moment!

"Don't be afraid, they won't eat people."

Seemingly sensing Jiang Ran's thoughts, Wen Ling subconsciously spoke up.

The quiet car was suddenly filled with noise, and Liu Wan, who was in the driver's seat, looked at the rearview mirror in surprise.

Her young lady can even comfort people?!

While I was still in a daze, the car had already driven up to the front of the central villa.

At the door, several servants hurried forward, and through the car window, Jiang Ran saw them all bowing deeply to the car.

"..."

"Get out of the car. I've already told my parents they should be waiting for us in the living room."

Wen Ling gave a word of advice.

As the car door opened, she was the first to get out.

Seeing her upright posture and commanding presence against the backdrop of this luxurious villa, Jiang Ran finally understood how Wen Ling had cultivated such a strong and assertive aura.

He quickly got out of the car.

Jiang Ran figured there was no need to bring out his Moutai and cigarettes. After all, given the amount he'd bought, his future father-in-law might think he was looking down on Wen Ling...

Jiang Ran thought so, but the next second, Liu Wan's voice rang out!

"There are Mr. Jiang's things in the trunk, go and help him get them out."

Before Jiang Ran could react, several bodyguards quickly stepped forward, opened the trunk, and carefully took out the items, one by one!

Ahead, Wen Ling turned her head, tilted her head slightly to look at Jiang Ran, and asked with a frown, "You bought something else?"

Now that things had come to this, Jiang Ran had no choice but to tell the truth: "Well... I'm not saying this because you gave me face when you came to my house last time, and I can't let you lose face, right... After all, our parents usually keep our relationship a secret from each other, don't they?"

His voice trailed off considerably when he said the last sentence.

It was winter, and the cold wind was howling, so Wen Ling didn't hear it clearly.

She only heard the first half of the sentence; Jiang Ran didn't want her to lose face...

Wen Ling's gaze fell on Jiang Ran, a tall and slender man with flushed cheeks, who was looking down as if muttering to himself.

It's kind of cute...
