The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 4 As long as you listen to the chapter

Xiao Jingchen narrowed his eyes, concealing the probing look in them, and moved closer to Lin Ran.

"What are you doing?"

Aside from that night a few days ago, this was the first time Lin Ran had been so close to a man, especially since he was her nominal husband. She couldn't help but feel nervous.

She wanted to back away, but she was afraid of angering the man in front of her and being sent back to the Ye family, so she had to suppress her shyness and stay still.

Seeing her nervous and shy demeanor, Xiao Jingchen felt a strange heat rising in his heart. With a push, the two of them lay down on the bed.

“I don’t care whether you’re willing or not. I can promise you that as long as you’re obedient and play the role of my wife well, I don’t mind keeping a lazy person at home.”

"If you don't listen..."

Xiao Jingchen's tone was indifferent, carrying a subtle warning.

Lin Ran bit her lip, and before he could finish speaking, she took the initiative to reach out and hug the man's neck, giving him an awkward kiss.

"I will obey!"

She would rather stay here than ever return to that horrible Ye family.

Lin Ran's initiative completely ignited the fire within Xiao Jingchen. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he rolled over, pinning her beneath him.

You're playing with fire.

"I……"

Lin Ran was so frightened by Xiao Jingchen that she wanted to cry, but she didn't dare. She could only hold it in, her eyes misty, like a wronged little rabbit. Just looking at her made people want to bully her.

Xiao Jingchen could no longer hold back and stretched out his hand.

The expensive wedding dress was ripped open with a tearing sound, and a chill crept up Lin Ran's body.

"Well."

Lin Ran instinctively tried to cover her body, but Xiao Jingchen's kiss landed on her. She was startled and nervously shut her mouth, struggling to hold it in.

"Remember to breathe."

A hoarse voice came from beside him, and Xiao Jingchen reached out and touched Lin Ran's lips.

"Oh……"

Lin Ran had just caught her breath when Xiao Jingchen kissed her again.

She tried her best to relax, responding to Xiao Jingchen's kiss shyly and awkwardly.

If Xiao Jingchen treats her well, she wouldn't mind being with him.

after all……

He is already her husband.

Xiao Jingchen's kisses gradually shifted from patient to frenzied. Lin Ran felt all her reason melt away, and the entire room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere...

The next day, Lin Ran woke up groggily, the soreness in her body a reminder of the madness of the previous night.

She never imagined that a man as aloof as Xiao Jingchen would be so malicious as to force her to use those embarrassing nicknames in bed.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran's face flushed slightly again, and she subconsciously looked at the seat to the side.

The spot beside him was cold; it was clear that Xiao Jingchen had been gone for a long time.

Although Lin Ran felt a little disappointed, she didn't think too much about it and slowly got out of bed.

"Young Madam, are you awake?"

A woman's voice came from outside. Lin Ran was stunned for a moment before she realized that the young mistress she was talking about was herself.

"Young Madam, these are clothes that the young master asked to be sent over. Please change into them and come downstairs for breakfast."

Lin Ran looked at the clothes in front of her. Although she didn't know much about these things, she knew that they were expensive.

"Madam, would you like me to help you change?"

The maid seemed to notice her hesitation and asked very proactively, but unfortunately, Lin Ran immediately rejected the suggestion.

"Alright, then please call me if you need anything, Madam. I'll be right at the door."

The maid said with some regret, but didn't say anything more. After leaving the room, she thoughtfully closed the door behind her.

"So many clothes..."

Lin Ran looked at those things with complicated eyes. Back when she was in the Ye family, although she wasn't exactly without clothes, no one ever prepared anything for her. She only got clothes that Ye Chuchu didn't like.

Composing herself, Lin Ran chose a relatively conservative white dress. She was a little worried while changing, fearing that the size might not be right, but to her surprise, it fit her perfectly.

A somewhat absurd idea popped into Lin Ran's mind. She paused for a moment, picked up all the clothes and compared them to her own size. They all fit her perfectly, as if they were tailor-made.

How did Xiao Jingchen know her size?

Lin Ran suddenly thought of this question, and the memories of their intimate moments last night played out in her mind like a movie.

"Pah, pah, pah! Lin Ran, what nonsense are you thinking!"

Lin Ran shook her head, her face flushed, patted her burning cheeks, and walked out of the bedroom.

The maid who had just brought in the clothes was standing at the door. When she saw her come out, a look of amazement flashed in her eyes.

Although Lin Ran was only wearing a simple white dress, her delicate collarbone was faintly visible at the neckline, and her slightly curled hair was draped beside her ears, adding a touch of allure. The hem of her skirt swayed gently with her steps, making her look extremely noble.

"Young mistress is so beautiful."

The maid praised her lavishly, and Lin Ran blinked shyly before going down the stairs.

There was only one elderly man sitting at the dining table, who was probably Xiao Jingchen's grandfather.

Lin Ran silently observed, feeling an uncontrollable tension rising within her. After all, this was essentially meeting the parents. However, the closer she got, the more familiar the figure seemed.

"Master, the young mistress has arrived."

Butler Xiao caught a glimpse of Lin Ran out of the corner of his eye, leaned close to the old man, and whispered something to him.

Good morning, Mr. Xiao.

Lin Ran knew she should call the old man "Grandpa," but for some reason, she couldn't bring herself to say it. She could only obediently call him "Master Xiao" and lower her head, not daring to say anything more.

“You silly girl, you’re married to Jingchen now, you should be calling me grandpa.”

Although the voice in my ear was old, it was full of energy and had a slightly familiar feel to it.

Lin Ran looked up at that familiar face, her voice full of surprise.

"It's you? The old man from that day?"

A month ago, Lin Ran went to burn paper money for her grandmother, but unexpectedly met an old man there who said he was her grandmother's friend.

Lin Ran also invited him to lunch.

"You silly girl, you're married to Jingchen now, and you still don't call him Grandpa?!"

Grandpa Xiao deliberately put on a stern face, but Lin Ran's nervousness had long since vanished, and she gave him a sweet smile.

"grandfather!"

"Okay, okay."

Grandpa Xiao nodded in satisfaction, beckoned Lin Ran to sit beside him, and couldn't stop smiling.

"Come on, let's eat breakfast."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Butler Xiao was perceptive; seeing the relaxed atmosphere between the two, he sent all the servants away.

"If that kid bullies you again, just tell Grandpa, and Grandpa will take care of him for you!"

Lin Ran was unaware of the tension between Old Master Xiao and Xiao Jingchen. She only felt a long-lost sense of care and her eyes welled up with tears.

"Well, thank you, Grandpa."

Breakfast was quickly finished, and Lin Ran suddenly remembered something and spoke up somewhat nervously.

"Grandpa, I still have some things at the Ye family's house. Can I go back there?"

Lin Ran was a little nervous. After all, they had just gotten married yesterday, and it was really against the rules for her to think about going home today.

Unexpectedly, Old Master Xiao nodded in agreement, "Go ahead, have Butler Xiao drive you there."
