The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 344: Just for Fun

This incident has completely dashed Ye Minghua's hopes of a comeback in Kyoto, since no one wants to go against the Xiao family.

Seeing that things had turned out this way, Wang Mei became increasingly impatient with Ye Minghua.

But besides this incident, the people in Kyoto realized something even more important.

Xiao Jingchen got married, but it was a financial transaction.

Even though Zhou Qing specifically emphasized the deep affection between the two, it still couldn't stop the group of people from deliberately ignoring it.

Things I never dared to do before, I'm starting to plan now.

As for Lin Ran? That nominally Mrs. Xiao, who would care about her? She's just a woman bought with money.

At the Kyoto Night Bar, Xiao Jingchen frowned slightly, looking at the noisy atmosphere around him.

"Why did we arrange to discuss cooperation here?"

Zhou Qing also looked puzzled, and an idea slowly surfaced in his mind.

Can……

He glanced at Xiao Jingchen's somewhat bewildered expression and silently shook his head.

Probably not. Over the years, no one has ever dared to send women to President Xiao. Moreover, he just recently made his wife's news public. Even if those people were courting death, they wouldn't resort to such methods, would they?

Suppressing their unease, Zhou Qing and Xiao Jingchen went into the private room together.

The owner had been waiting inside for a long time. When he saw people arrive, he quickly stood up and went over to them.

"Mr. Xiao, you've finally arrived. Please have a seat. We've been waiting here for quite some time."

The man was all smiles and eager to please, while Xiao Jingchen nodded indifferently, his expression revealing neither joy nor sorrow.

After they sat down, the man offered them a toast. Xiao Jingchen wanted to refuse, but then he seemed to remember something, paused, picked up the glass, waved it at the man, and downed the wine in one gulp. He didn't notice the man's strange expression.

"Mr. Xiao, here's the contract I brought. If there are no problems, could you please..."

The man rubbed his hands together expectantly, while Xiao Jingchen shook his head, a barely perceptible look of bewilderment flashing across his eyes.

He picked up the document and glanced at it, only to find that the words on it had suddenly become blurry.

"Zhou Qing."

Xiao Jingchen, his voice restrained, handed the document to Zhou Qing, who was sitting next to him, and leaned back on the sofa, gently pressing his temples.

"Mr. Xiao, there's no problem."

Zhou Qing quickly glanced at it, and after confirming there were no problems, handed the document back.

"Okay, send it back."

Xiao Jingchen had the intention to leave, so he directly sent Zhou Qing away, making his departure quite obvious.

Although Zhou Qing was somewhat worried, seeing that Xiao Jingchen's expression was unchanged as usual, she still took the documents and left first.

"Mr. Xiao, look, this is a little gift I specially prepared for you. Are you satisfied with it?"

Seeing that the people in the way had left, the man rubbed his hands together expectantly. Not long after, a slender woman pushed open the door and walked in.

She initially seemed somewhat reluctant, but a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes the moment she saw Xiao Jingchen.

"Well, Mr. Xiao, I won't bother you any longer."

Xiao Jingchen frowned as soon as someone entered. He wanted to leave, but his head was spinning and he had almost no strength left. He could only watch helplessly as the woman approached step by step.

"roll."

Just as the woman's hand was about to touch him, Xiao Jingchen, without knowing where the strength came from, suddenly shoved the woman in front of him, his tone chillingly cold.

The woman froze for a few seconds, then could only watch helplessly as the man left.

Inside the villa, Lin Ran sat in the living room, glancing outside every now and then before turning her head away with a disappointed look.

"Why haven't they come back yet?"

Lin Ran murmured to herself, countless possibilities flashing through her mind, before being interrupted by her vibrating phone.

She looked down with a look of surprise, but a hint of disappointment flashed across her face the next second.

not him.

Lin Ran absentmindedly opened the message, but her expression changed.

"Xiao Jingchen seems to have gone into a bar with a woman."

"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to tell you."

As she read Xiao Yunsi's message, her heart felt as if it had been torn apart, filled with bitterness and pain. Her expression kept changing before finally settling into indifference.

Her relationship with Xiao Jingchen was just an agreement; there were no feelings left. How could she possibly care about this?

Lin Ran looked extremely pale, but five minutes later, she still grabbed her phone and left the house.

She wasn't jealous; she was just worried that Xiao Jingchen might encounter some danger if he didn't go home so late.

On the road not far from the villa, Xiao Jingchen stumbled over, a slight blush on his face.

The cold night wind cleared his muddled mind considerably.

Those people actually dared to do that.

Xiao Jingchen's eyes were cold and sharp. He was about to make a phone call to tell Zhou Qing some things when he looked up and vaguely saw a familiar figure.

His mind, numbed by alcohol, was momentarily hazy. He squeezed his eyes shut, then opened them again, and the figure became even clearer.

"Dye".

Most of his dissatisfaction vanished instantly, and with a faint smile on his face, he stumbled over.

"Xiao Jingchen?"

When Lin Ran heard the sound and looked up to see the figure, she was still somewhat incredulous. Seeing that he looked drunk, she hurriedly ran a few steps and helped him up.

"Why did you drink so much?"

Xiao Jingchen curled his lips, not intending to tell her those things, but greedily inhaling the familiar scent, his expression full of satisfaction.

"Ranran, were you worried about me, so you came out to meet me?"

Hearing the slightly teasing tone in her ear, Lin Ran's face immediately turned red.

Fortunately, it was nighttime, so no one could see the expression on her face.

"Who said that? I just came out for a stroll. I ate too much tonight."

Lin Ran explained somewhat flusteredly, helping Xiao Jingchen walk step by step towards home.

As soon as they entered the living room, the maid, who was about to go to rest, saw this scene and couldn't help but smile.

"Madam didn't eat dinner. So she was worried about the young master."

Lin Ran originally wanted to stop it, but she didn't expect that person to speak so quickly, directly revealing her disguise. Her face turned red, and she opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

She didn't even dare to lower her head, afraid of seeing Xiao Jingchen's mocking gaze. She could only drag him upstairs in a hurry, looking like she was fleeing in panic.

Xiao Jingchen couldn't help but smile. He didn't say anything to provoke the woman, whose face was already flushed, and simply followed her lead upstairs.

Upon arriving in the bedroom, Lin Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She let Xiao Jingchen sit on the bed and got up to leave, unaware of the increasingly deep gaze of the man behind her.
