The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 244 I just want to take care of you

Xiao Jingchen lowered his head slightly and smiled.

Laughter echoed in the room, creating an inexplicably strange feeling.

After a long while, Xiao Jingchen finally stopped, a hint of relief in his eyes.

"This is not Lin Ran's corpse."

He paused, then chuckled softly.

"She didn't die at all, right?"

Zhou Qing pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.

In truth, he knew in his heart that the two corpses could not be Lin Ran and Xiao Yunsi.

Yesterday there were no results, but this morning the bodies of the two men were recovered. This is too much of a coincidence.

"Don't tell anyone about this. Find a few trustworthy people to go abroad and search."

"Even if we have to turn the whole earth upside down, we must find Lin Ran for me."

Seeing Xiao Jingchen's crazed expression, Zhou Qing's heart trembled, and she nodded hastily.

Ye Chuchu thought that after finding the body, she could marry Xiao Jingchen as planned. However, she did not expect that the crazy man not only did not hold a funeral for Lin Ran, but also publicly said that he would only have her as his wife.

Ye Chuchu couldn't bear such humiliation. She went home, tore the photo of the two of them out of the newspaper, and stomped it on the ground.

"Bitch! Bitch!"

"Why did you still seduce my Jingchen brother when you're already dead!"

Seeing her daughter so angry, Wang Mei's resentment towards Lin Ran deepened even further.

"Alright, Chuchu, don't be too angry. Listen to Mom. Mom has a way to make Xiao Jingchen like you."

Hearing her say that, Ye Chuchu didn't believe it, but she still went over to her.

"Xiao Jingchen is so heartbroken right now only because he just lost that bitch. You should be gentler and slowly win his heart."

"What's the point of him acting so sentimental now? In a few months, he won't even remember what he said at this time."

Ye Chuchu frowned and blinked thoughtfully.

"I understand, Mom. Xiao Jingchen will be mine sooner or later."

The next morning, Ye Chuchu arrived at the company early, carrying the breakfast she had prepared in advance.

She dressed up specially, her white gauze dress swaying gently in the wind.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Jingchen walked in looking dejected.

Seeing Ye Chuchu standing to the side, he didn't say anything, and didn't even glance at her.

Ye Chuchu was furious, but thinking of what Wang Mei had said to her, she could only take a deep breath and suppress her dissatisfaction.

"Brother Jingchen, you look terrible. Have some soup. I made it especially for you."

Ye Chuchu gracefully laid out the items, but Xiao Jingchen merely frowned and impatiently pushed them to the other side.

"In the way."

A cold voice came from her thin lips, and Ye Chuchu almost forgot her purpose. She stood there and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

“Brother Jingchen, I know you really like my sister, and I’ve figured it out.”

Ye Chuchu's tone was extremely aggrieved, and her eyes welled up with tears.

"I really like you, but I know you don't like me. I just want to care about you, Jingchen-gege. You wouldn't even deny me the right to care about you, would you?"

Ye Chuchu's words were so pitiful, and her tearful appearance was enough to soften any man's heart.

However, it is obvious that Xiao Jingchen is not among those men.

He glanced at Ye Chuchu expressionlessly, his eyes seemingly carrying a hint of disdain.

"unnecessary."

"I told you, don't come into my office without permission anymore. Get out."

A cold voice rang in her ears, and Ye Chuchu trembled. She bit her lip to hide her resentment, but said nothing more. She simply nodded and left the office.

Seeing that Ye Chuchu left so easily, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Jingchen's eyes, but he didn't think about it any further.

Meanwhile, in a large garden in Country F, Lin Ran, her belly bulging high, sat on a swing with a smile on her face, slowly swaying with the help of her feet.

On the other side of the garden, the old man looked at the scene in the yard with a sigh, unable to suppress the smile on his face.

"Master, those people have all been dealt with."

Butler Xiao's voice rang out from beside him, and the old man's face immediately turned cold.

"Is everything resolved?"

"That brat, he didn't appreciate people when they were around, he hurt them deeply, and now he's pretending to be all sentimental here."

Old Master Xiao cursed with a dissatisfied expression, then paused, and then, as if remembering something, calmed down.

"Never mind, it's exactly the same as what happened to me back then. Sigh, we really are family."

The old man sighed, composed himself, and slowly walked into the garden.

Grandpa, you've come!

Lin Ran caught a glimpse of the gray-haired old man out of the corner of her eye and rushed over excitedly.

Of course, she controlled her strength, only gently lying on the old man's body.

Even so, the old man was still startled.

"You silly girl, your belly is so big and you still don't know how to be more discreet!"

The old man was scolding, but his actions were incredibly gentle. He carefully supported Lin Ran, as if she were a precious treasure.

"Grandpa, I am pregnant, but I'm not turning into a porcelain doll."

Lin Ran pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Besides, the doctor said I'm perfectly healthy now, so there definitely won't be any problems."

"Of course I know, but you still need to be careful!"

The old man reached out and touched Lin Ran's belly, unable to hide the smile on his face.

Just as he was about to say something more, a man in black suddenly walked in and whispered something in his ear.

The old man's expression changed, and he looked at Lin Ran apologetically.

"Ranran, Grandpa has some things to take care of, he'll come over later."

"Behave yourself, stop being so naughty."

"I know, Grandpa."

Lin Ran smiled, playfully stuck out her tongue, and steadily walked back to sit on the swing.

Outside the manor, the old man's expression was indifferent, and his aura was somewhat frightening.

"You mean, that brat's men have already retrieved the body? And brought it back?"

"Yes, I heard it was done by someone from the Ye family."

Butler Xiao nodded and said, his tone full of disgust.

The old man's face showed obvious disgust after hearing this. He frowned and thought for a long time before speaking, "Since someone has already done it for us, it saves us the trouble."

"Keep an eye on the area around the manor lately. Remember, don't let anyone in. That brat isn't someone you can fool."

Even though Xiao Jingchen was his grandson, the old man didn't hold back when he scolded him. After giving a few instructions, he hurriedly returned to the garden.
