The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 253 The Beginning of a New Life

Although the old man had no beard, he was still quite old, and his dry skin was incredibly rough for a baby.

Every year, her soft, chubby cheeks were rubbed until they turned a little red.

"Master, if you keep doing this, the young lady will get angry again."

Butler Xiao said helplessly. He reached out to rescue poor Niannian, but the old man shielded her.

"What are you doing, Lao Xiao? It's settled then, I'll take care of Niannian, and you take care of Suisui."

"Don't try to take it from me."

Looking at the person who seemed to be guarding their food, Butler Xiao looked helpless.

"I know, sir, but the young lady should go change her diaper now."

Upon hearing this, the old man looked down at Niannian and reluctantly handed the child over.

He turned his head and looked at Xiao Yunsi, who was still standing there in a daze, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

"What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and pack your things."

Xiao Yunsi seemed to wake from a dream, responded, and left.

The moment he turned around, the smile on his face vanished, replaced by a chilling ferocity.

That damn brat is just as annoying as his dad!

Xiao Yunsi walked into the room with a cold face, and looked at the perfunctory decorations, which made him even more annoyed.

In the short time it took to change clothes, Xiao Yunsi transformed back into that gentle man, his smile utterly flawless.

"Grandpa, I remember you seem to like sweets. How about I go out and buy you some?"

Xiao Yunsi thought about the information he had previously gathered and tentatively asked the old man.

Although he thought it was useless when he first heard the news, the situation is different now. To win someone's favor, you have to give them something they like.

Xiao Yunsi stood up confidently, but to his surprise, the old man looked at him with some anger.

"Desserts? Are you trying to kill this old man?"

"Hmph, you can sit down. It's already a favor that you're allowed to come back and live here. If you dare to do anything bad again, don't blame me for being impolite as your grandfather."

Being inexplicably warned, Xiao Yunsi's smile froze, and it took him a while to recover before he awkwardly sat down again.

"Grandpa, I just wanted to help you out."

"Where's Lin Ran? I haven't seen her today."

Xiao Yun hurriedly uttered the next sentence, trying to cover up his embarrassment.

"Ranran is much more diligent than you; she's already at work."

work?

Xiao Yunsi showed no outward expression, but inwardly he was secretly mocking him.

This is F country. With Lin Ran's education, she was able to find a job in China thanks to Xiao Jingchen, who got her a job at the company.

Now that he's in Country F, he actually dares to go out to work alone; he's just asking for trouble.

Having learned what he wanted to know, Xiao Yunsi finally quieted down and returned to his room while the old man wasn't looking.

Although he has nothing in F country, it doesn't mean he will accept all of this.

Since Xiao Jingchen is so heartless, he should at least send him a gift.

On the other side, Lin Ran entered FG Company. Looking at the completely unfamiliar people around her, she took a deep breath, straightened her back, and walked in.

"Hello, I'm a new employee who came here today to report for duty. My name is Lin Ran."

Lin Ran glanced at the requirements in the manual, then went to the front desk and explained her purpose.

The receptionist was also Chinese, but her black hair was dyed blonde, and with a lot of foundation on her face, her complexion was frighteningly pale.

She glanced at Lin Ran indifferently, but didn't react at all. She simply tossed the form in her hand to him without a care in the world.

"Please fill this out; it needs to be your real information."

Sensing the somewhat inexplicable hostility, Lin Ran blinked in confusion, but still responded and sat down to fill in the information.

"Wait, you can't sit in that seat. That's for full-time employees."

Lin Ran paused, looked up, and her sharp gaze silenced the woman instantly.

Compared to her previous submissive attitude, Lin Ran did not intend to be like that this time. Why should she wrong herself? She had clearly entered the company based on her own abilities.

Lin Ran quickly filled out the form and handed it to the front desk.

This time she was not given any trouble and quickly completed the onboarding process.

It was already time for work, and the office was full of people.

Under the guidance of HR, Lin Ran sat down in an office chair in the corner.

"Ran, may I call you that?"

The HR person was from France, with long, golden waves flowing down her back, and a hot figure.

Even though Lin Ran was a girl, she couldn't help but blush and nodded shyly.

"Okay, you can just call me Julie. That's how you address people over there, right?"

Julie placed a bunch of things on Lin Ran's table and introduced them one by one.

"These are all things given to employees upon joining the company. If you live far away, you can apply for reimbursement of your travel expenses."

Julie whispered the last sentence into Lin Ran's ear, and then winked at her.

"Ran, I'm leaving now. See you after get off work."

Lin Ran stared blankly as she left, her face suddenly turning red, the scent of gardenias still lingering on her nose.

"Julie is indeed a very charming woman. Are you also captivated by her?"

The sudden sound beside her startled Lin Ran. Her pupils contracted slightly, and she turned her head to look.

The boy who spoke had red hair and striking features that were just as captivating as Julie's.

Lin Ran seemed stunned, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. She lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Oh dear, yet another person has fallen for me."

Fu Sinian touched his hair with a smug look on his face and said proudly.

If Lin Ran thought he was refined and handsome just now, that impression vanished instantly.

She pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out her hand.

"I'm a new employee, my name is Lin Ran."

"Fu Sinian".

The red-haired man also reached out his hand, but just as he was about to shake it, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly lowered his head.

The warm touch on the back of her hand made Lin Ran's eyes widen, and she looked at Fu Sinian in disbelief.

"you……"

Lin Ran spoke tremblingly, but Fu Sinian misunderstood that she was about to cry.

The man, who had just been all smiles, suddenly panicked.

"Oh dear, this is a hand-kissing greeting! It's very common in France!"

"If you don't like it, I won't do it next time, but don't cry."

Even if Lin Ran was dissatisfied, she could only give up after hearing his explanation.

After all, this is France, and kissing hands is indeed a very normal thing.

"Are you alright? That's good. I'm your team leader. Welcome to your new life."

This time, Fu Ssu-nien was the first to extend his hand.

Lin Ran was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

Yes, this is the beginning of a new life.
