The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 50 You Are Mine

At this moment, in Manager Wang's office, Lin Ran looked at the man approaching step by step, her eyes filled with despair.

"Don't come any closer!"

"If you come any closer, I'll call for help!"

"You wretched woman, how dare you hurt me! Today I'll show you what I'm capable of."

Manager Wang gave a lewd smile, his fat jiggling with his movements. Even though there was a distance between them, Lin Ran could almost feel the greasy movements.

She gritted her teeth, her eyes darting around, trying to find a suitable weapon, but after what had just happened, there was nothing around her.

"Stop looking. I won't make the same mistake twice. Just obediently give in to me."

Manager Wang rubbed his hands together, not in a hurry to go over. Watching the beauty's flustered appearance was also a kind of enjoyment.

As the man drew closer, Lin Ran's heart leaped into her throat, and a multitude of thoughts raced through her mind.

I thought of Old Master Xiao, my mother who had just woken up, and Xiao Jingchen…

Lin Ran curled her lips into a slightly mocking smile.

She was only here because of that man, and now she's even wondering if he'll come to save her. That's really wrong of her!

Xiao Jingchen is probably in his office right now, enjoying everyone's praise with Ye Chuchu.

In the blink of an eye, Manager Wang had moved closer to her, and Lin Ran could even feel the warmth emanating from him.

"No, no..."

Lin Ran's hands were pressed firmly against the wall, and she could only watch helplessly as the large face drew closer and closer, closing her eyes in despair.

bang——

The loud noise behind him interrupted Manager Wang's actions. He had just turned around and hadn't even had time to see what was happening when he was punched in the face.

"Who do you think you are, daring to hit me!"

Manager Wang, still cursing and covering his bruised eye, raised his head. His eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Yunsi, but his words remained arrogant.

"So you're just a pretty boy. Are you trying to play the hero and save the damsel in distress?"

Xiao Yunsi snorted coldly and threw another punch. As the two got close, he opened his mouth and said something.

This subtle movement went unnoticed.

Another unrestrained punch landed, and Manager Wang collapsed to the ground unconscious.

"Lin Ran, are you alright?"

Xiao Yunsi carefully took off his coat and wrapped it around her, his face full of worry.

"Xiao Yunsi?"

Lin Ran's body trembled uncontrollably, and tears welled up in her eyes. Seeing familiar people standing beside her, she could no longer suppress the fear in her heart.

"Don't cry, don't cry, it's all over now."

Xiao Yunsi sighed and held her in his arms. It took a long time before Lin Ran finally stopped.

Seeing Xiao Yunsi's clothes soaked with tears, Lin Ran blushed and spoke up somewhat shyly.

"I'm sorry, I got your clothes all wet."

"As long as you're okay."

Xiao Yunsi's eyes revealed undisguised affection as he held Lin Ran's hand, bowed slightly, and spoke with tenderness.

"Lin Ran, thank goodness you're alright."

"I didn't want to tell you, but with what happened today, I have no choice but to."

Lin Ran felt a little flustered and wanted to back away, but Xiao Yunsi held her hand tightly and she couldn't break free no matter what she did.

"Lin Ran, I like you. From the first time we met, can you give me a chance to protect you?"

Xiao Yunsi's voice was gentle yet magnetic, with a hint of seduction.

Lin Ran was stunned, and opened her mouth but no sound came out.

"Can you give me a chance?"

Xiao Yunsi asked again, his tone very serious. Seeing that Lin Ran did not speak, he pursed his lips in a fluster.

"Of course not."

Xiao Jingchen's voice, tinged with coldness, came through the room, his eyes fixed on the two clasped hands.

"I hope I haven't disturbed you both."

Despite saying that, Xiao Jingchen moved forward without hesitation, grabbed Lin Ran's wrist, and pulled her into his arms.

“However, she is mine, Xiao Yunsi, you shouldn’t have any thoughts about her.”

Xiao Yunsi smiled, his eyes fixed on Lin Ran, his tone laced with provocation.

"Is that so? It would be better to let Lin Ran choose for herself."

Lin Ran felt a little uncomfortable being half-held by Xiao Jingchen and struggled to get out of his arms, but he misunderstood her action as wanting to choose Xiao Yunsi, and his expression immediately turned cold.

"She had no choice."

Xiao Jingchen reached out and pinched Lin Ran's chin, forcing her to raise her head, and kissed her.

The soft, jelly-like texture stirred something in Xiao Jingchen's heart, but considering the space, he didn't go any further.

"See? She's mine, and she'll only ever be mine."

Faced with Xiao Jingchen's domineering declaration of sovereignty, Xiao Yunsi's expression remained unchanged, still with that gentle demeanor, though a dark glint flashed quickly in his eyes.

"Lin Ran is a person, and she has the right to make her own choices."

Xiao Yunsi rarely clashed with Xiao Jingchen directly, but this time he seemed determined not to back down an inch.

A storm raged in Xiao Jingchen's eyes, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop considerably. He unconsciously tightened his grip on Lin Ran's hand.

"hiss……"

Lin Ran gasped in pain, and the sound brought Xiao Jingchen back to his senses, causing him to soften his movements considerably.

"She's mine."

Xiao Jingchen spoke slowly and deliberately, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yunsi.

The usually gentle man's expression changed at this moment. Just as he was about to say something, Zhou Qing, who was standing to the side, suddenly blocked their way.

"Um, Second Young Master, please calm down. It's not good for us if President Xiao gets angry."

Zhou Qing whispered a word of advice and then pulled Xiao Yunsi away from the place.

Lin Ran looked over with some worry, but Xiao Jingchen pinched her face and turned her head away.

"Don't look."

This domineering tone made Lin Ran frown uncomfortably, and she pushed him away.

"Don't you dislike me? Why did you kiss me then?"

Lin Ran spoke in a calm tone, but her eyes were fixed on Xiao Jingchen.

Meeting those still slightly red eyes, Xiao Jingchen felt inexplicably uncomfortable, his brows furrowed with irritation.

"Because you are my wife, I will not allow anyone to lay a finger on you."

After a long pause, Xiao Jingchen said something that seemed to be both an answer to Lin Ran and a way of advising himself.

Lin Ran took a deep breath, wanting to question him about whether he already knew that Manager Wang was this kind of person, and whether he deliberately made her do this, but the words just wouldn't come out.

"What? You like Xiao Yunsi?"

Seeing her hesitant expression, a hint of rage rose in Xiao Jingchen's eyes, and a cold smile curved his thin lips.

"It's no use liking me. You belong to me, and you have no other choice but to be with me."
