The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 131 Flowers for Miss Lin

This is not the outcome Jiang Rao wanted to see.

She stared at the phone on the ground for a long time with resentment, then turned and left.

Just as she stepped out of the villa, a figure pounced on Jiang Rao.

"what?"

The girl called "thing" raised her head, revealing her dirty face.

Jiang Rao then realized that she was the girl who had taken her picture that day.

"What are you doing here? I remember I already paid you the balance, didn't I?"

Jiang Rao crossed her arms and said with a displeased look, "This girl's clothes weren't very nice to begin with, and now they're so dirty it's unbearable to look at."

She took several steps back before stopping.

"Ms. Jiang, you promised me you would help me find a job, but now there isn't a single company in the entire news industry willing to hire me!"

"I have no other choice, you have to help me."

Jiang Rao sneered upon hearing this, her eyes filled with impatience.

"I'll help you?"

"What are you thinking? It's the Xiao family that wants to blacklist you. What can I do? Blame it on the fact that you posted something you shouldn't have."

After saying this, Jiang Rao turned and left.

The girl tried to chase after him, but was stopped by the security guards at the villa and left on the main road.

Looking at the crowds coming and going, she finally realized what she had lost and burst into tears, lying on the ground.

Of course, all of this was caused by her greed, so she had no one else to blame but herself.

The next morning, although Xiao Jingchen's arm was fine, Lin Ran didn't want to take the subway since she could hitch a ride to the company.

She got up early on purpose and followed closely behind Xiao Jingchen into the car.

"By the way, Mr. Xiao, how's your arm?"

Seemingly feeling that the air inside the car was too stuffy, Lin Ran took the initiative to bring up the topic.

Since she's hitching a ride, it's her job to find topics to chat about.

However, she didn't notice that when he heard "President Xiao" and "the other person," Xiao Jingchen's eyes darkened, and a hint of displeasure flashed in them.

"It's ready."

"Oh, I see. Then I won't go to the top floor. I have a lot of work to do in the secretariat."

Lin Ran continued talking to herself, completely unaware of Xiao Jingchen's increasingly dark expression.

"what ever!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the car stopped, and Xiao Jingchen got out of the car angrily and went up the elevator without looking back.

Lin Ran stared at his retreating figure, completely bewildered, but she didn't think too much about it and went straight back to the secretariat.

"Lin Ran! You and President Xiao are so sweet together! You two should stay together forever!"

"That's right, that's right, Lin Ran, you and President Xiao are a match made in heaven."

"what?"

Lin Ran was completely stunned, looking at her two colleagues who were obviously excited, her eyes filled with confusion.

"It's that live stream online, don't you know?"

As he spoke, the man took out his phone and showed the video to Lin Ran.

Seeing herself blushing as she called him "husband," Lin Ran blushed instantly and hurriedly returned to her seat.

The group wanted to say something more, but Song Nuan walked in, and the office immediately quieted down.

As lunchtime approached, a food delivery driver suddenly appeared at the office door, peeking inside.

"May I ask who Miss Lin is?"

Lin Ran, amidst her busy schedule, looked up and responded.

"I am, what's the matter?"

After verifying his identity, the deliveryman ran out again and came back in carrying a large bouquet of flowers.

"Here are your flowers, please sign for them."

"flower?"

Lin Ran paused in her movements, looked up at the bouquet of pink roses, and stared blankly for a long time.

Why would anyone give her flowers, especially such a large bouquet?

"Yes, Miss Lin Ran, please sign here. I'll be leaving now."

Lin Ran signed the document in a daze, accepted the flowers in a daze, and sat back in her seat.

The bouquet was so large that it almost took up the entire surface area of ​​the table. Lin Ran stared at it for a while, then suddenly laughed.

Aside from Xiao Jingchen, she couldn't think of anyone else who would give her flowers.

Lin Ran took the card off the bouquet and read it word by word.

"let's have dinner tonight."

Those six short words shattered Lin Ran's composure.

For the first time, someone who always enjoys working overtime wanted time to pass faster, even faster.

The clock hands moved forward little by little, and Lin Ran stared intently at them, as if doing so would make her move faster.

Finally, it was time to leave work. Lin Ran tidied her hair in front of the mirror and sat down to wait for Xiao Jingchen to arrive.

After a while, Lin Ran suddenly patted his head and opened the files, pretending to be busy with work.

Until footsteps sounded behind me.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Perhaps because Lin Ran was too excited, she didn't notice that the voice was wrong. It wasn't until she turned her head happily that she realized that the person standing behind her was not Xiao Jingchen at all, but Xiao Yunsi, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Xiao Yunsi clearly saw the fleeting disappointment in her eyes, and a hint of coldness crept into the corners of his mouth.

Did you like the flowers I sent you?

"Hmm, it smells nice, but please don't send it as a gift in the future, it's quite expensive, isn't it?"

Although Lin Ran was somewhat disappointed, Xiao Yunsi had helped her so much before, and it wouldn't be good for him to leave now, so she could only force a smile and respond.

"Okay, if you don't like it, I won't send it."

"Let's go, I've already made reservations at the restaurant."

"it is good."

Lin Ran pursed her lips, shut down her computer, and left the office with the flowers in her arms.

Downstairs, Xiao Jingchen's car was parked on the side of the road. He looked through the car window at the gate of Xiao's Group, his thin lips slightly pursed, showing a hint of impatience.

"Mr. Xiao, should I go up and take a look?"

"Need not."

Xiao Jingchen frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a familiar figure walk out of the company.

There was also an eyesore of a man following beside her.

Xiao Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly and gave a cold smile.

"Zhou Qing, go home."

"what?"

Just as Zhou Qing was about to ask the reason, his eyes also fell on the scene at the company entrance. He immediately swallowed all his words and silently started the car.

Lin Ran ate her dinner absentmindedly, taking out her phone to check it every now and then.

Xiao Yunsi saw all of this and spoke up when Lin Ran looked down at her phone for the tenth time.

"If you have something urgent to attend to, you can go now. I see you've eaten enough."

Do you need me to take you home?

Lin Ran's eyes lit up, and she stood up while holding the flowers.

"No need, I'll take a taxi back."

After saying that, she turned and left without even glancing at Xiao Yunsi's expression.

The moment the door closed, Xiao Yunsi went berserk, overturning the table and smashing plates on the ground with a loud thud.

He stared at the wreckage on the ground with a sinister look in his eyes. After a long while, he threw down a few banknotes and turned to leave.
