The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 354 Got it

Lin Ran would never make the same mistake twice.

She hesitated for a moment, then took the medicine packet and went into Ye Minghua's room. She took out all the cigars from the drawer and unpacked them one by one.

Then he found a piece of kraft paper and wrapped all the tobacco leaves in it, and it looked almost exactly like a medicine packet.

Lin Ran took a deep breath, carefully hiding the real medicine packet, while holding in her arms the cigarette pack she had just sat on.

Meanwhile, outside the villa, Ye Minghua stared fiercely at Lin Ran's back, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes.

He was also involved in the poisoning. If Lin Ran really finds out everything that happened before, his life will be truly over.

No matter what method he used, he was determined to take that medicine packet away.

Lost in thought, Lin Ran had already gotten into a taxi and left.

Ye Minghua had no time to think about anything else. He hurriedly stepped on the gas and followed Lin Ran's car without any regard for the consequences.

When Lin Ran saw in the rearview mirror that she was being followed, she was not surprised at all; in fact, she felt a little excited.

Halfway through the journey, Ye Minghua made no move. Lin Ran hesitated for a moment, said something to the driver, and the car turned onto another desolate road.

There were hardly any people on the entire road.

A hint of excitement flashed in Ye Minghua's eyes. He pressed down hard on the accelerator and showed no intention of letting go.

The two cars are getting closer and closer.

bang——

Even though Lin Ran had prepared in advance, she was still startled by the impact. She leaned forward quite a bit, but fortunately, the airbag prevented her from being injured. However, the car window shattered, and several shards cut her arm.

Ye Minghua was fine. After seeing the car stop, he sneered and walked over step by step.

"Lin Ran, let me tell you, don't even think about investigating those things from before. All the traces have been cleaned up. Even with Xiao Jingchen's help, you won't be able to find anything."

Seemingly convinced that victory was firmly in his grasp, Ye Minghua carelessly revealed many things.

Lin Ran was surprised, but her face showed a humiliated expression.

"Ye Minghua, don't even think about taking my things this time. I will definitely send you all to prison."

Startled by that resolute gaze, Ye Minghua felt a pang of panic. He snatched the thing Lin Ran was clutching tightly from her hand and strode away.

Watching the car gradually drive away, Lin Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but her face was still very pale.

Meanwhile, the driver, who had been pretending to be unconscious, woke up. Looking at Lin Ran's appearance, he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but then remained silent.

"Don't worry, I will reimburse you for all the money when we get there. Thank you so much for your help this time."

Lin Ran felt a good impression of this person who was willing to help her, and her tone unconsciously became much gentler.

The driver's thoughts were exposed, his face flushed, he paused, then seemed to remember something, pursed his lips and stepped on the gas.

He got his car damaged while trying to help this girl, so it's normal for her to pay some compensation, right?

He didn't bully anyone.

Soon, the car stopped in the villa area, and Lin Ran handed over a stack of red banknotes as agreed between the two.

"Is this enough for you? The back of the car must have been badly damaged. Please take a look at how to repair it."

The driver's hands seemed to tremble as he looked at so much money. He took several deep breaths before reluctantly pulling out half of the money.

"Miss, my beat-up car doesn't need that much money."

But when he looked up, he found that Lin Ran was nowhere to be seen.

The banknotes in his hand seemed to be getting heavy. After a while, the driver sighed slightly, carefully put the money away, and stepped on the gas to leave.

Meanwhile, Lin Ran had already returned to the villa with an excited expression. When she saw Xiao Jingchen sitting in the living room, her eyes were full of smiles.

"Xiao Jingchen! Look what I got!"

Lin Ran excitedly took out the medicine packet in her hand, leaned close to Xiao Jingchen, and told him everything that had just happened.

Lost in her excitement, she didn't notice Xiao Jingchen's increasingly deep and cold gaze.

After she finally finished speaking, she noticed the man's stiff expression. The smile on her face immediately vanished, and she tugged at her clothes, looking somewhat lost.

"Xiao Jingchen, what's wrong?"

Lin Ran asked in a low voice.

Xiao Jingchen didn't answer. He stared at the wound on her arm for a long time, then suddenly sighed helplessly and got up to leave.

"Xiao Jingchen?"

The man's silence completely panicked Lin Ran, and even the joy of receiving the medicine kit vanished.

Fortunately, Xiao Jingchen did not leave, but came back with a first-aid kit.

"Sit down, I'll apply the medicine for you."

Lin Ran then noticed the wounds on her arms and legs that were constantly bleeding, and shrank back with a complicated expression.

“Xiao Jingchen, you…”

Were you angry just now?

Lin Ran didn't ask the question because Xiao Jingchen squatted down in front of her and carefully treated her wound.

"hiss--"

When the hydrogen peroxide came into contact with the wound, Lin Ran couldn't help but pull her leg back, but Xiao Jingchen grabbed her and held her in place, preventing her from moving an inch.

"Now you know what pain is? When you were thinking of a solution, why didn't you consider your own safety?"

Although he didn't mean to blame Lin Ran, the hint of annoyance in his tone made Lin Ran feel guilty.

"I'm sorry, but the situation was urgent, so I really had no other choice."

Hearing Lin Ran's aggrieved voice, Xiao Jingchen realized that his tone might have been a bit harsh. He looked up at her slightly reddened eyes, sighed, and softened his tone.

"I'm not blaming you, I'm just worried about you."

"Also, when are you going to rely on me more? I've achieved some success in Kyoto, can't you even use me a little?"

Hearing Xiao Jingchen's almost pleading words, Lin Ran felt a pang of bitterness and sorrow in her heart, and opened her mouth several times but didn't know what to say.

"Is it too late for me to take advantage of this now?"

After a long pause, Lin Ran spoke tentatively, her slightly raised eyebrows showing a hint of curiosity.

Xiao Jingchen took a deep breath, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

"Okay, what do you need me to do?"

"Let the doctors on the island examine this to see if my mother's illness is related to these medications."

"no problem."

Xiao Jingchen readily agreed and accepted the items with a smile.
