The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 339 I will help you solve it

When Fu Sinian learned the news, Lin Ran had already been beating up by that group of people for a long time.

Those harsh words were like beans being poured out, every single one of them drilling into her ears.

But apart from that first sentence, she never said anything else.

Ye Minghua thought she was scared, and a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.

He approached step by step, finally stopping in front of Lin Ran.

"See? So what if the Ye family falls? I still have a million ways to make you bow down."

Startled by the hateful voice, Lin Ran looked down at Ye Minghua and, after a long while, sneered.

"Do you really think that I'll obediently listen to you just because of these things?"

Looking at Lin Ran's indifferent face, Ye Minghua seemed to see another person through her, and a look of bewilderment flashed across his face.

"Sigh, since you're unwilling to support me, then I might as well just die."

Ye Minghua's eyes were filled with tears, and he took several steps back, his face full of disappointment.

Several onlookers couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to teach Lin Ran a lesson, but just as their hands were about to touch her, they were pulled back quite a bit by her collar.

"Who is it? Who is it!"

The man turned his head with a displeased expression and saw the man in black who was much taller than him. He immediately fell silent and could no longer utter a word.

In the crowd, Xiao Jingchen's face was cold, and his eyes were urgently searching for Lin Ran's figure. The moment he saw her, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and pushed through the crowd to block her way.

"Are you OK?"

Lin Ran stared blankly at the man who had suddenly appeared before her, feeling a slight sense of relief. Her eyes even felt a little hot. After a long while, she cautiously shook her head.

"I'm fine, how did you get here?"

"Don't worry, I'll help you resolve this."

Xiao Jingchen took a deep breath, reached out and pulled her behind him, while giving the surrounding crowd a warning look.

Before long, the crowd that had come to watch the commotion was dispersed by the bodyguards brought by Xiao Jingchen.

The only ones left were a few reporters carrying cameras.

They were different from those who came to watch the spectacle.

They knew Xiao Jingchen's character very well, so they immediately held their breath and dared not make a sound.

"You guys are very good. I'll remember you."

Xiao Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, looked around, and his voice carried a hint of warning.

He paused for a moment, then looked at Ye Minghua.

Ye's bankruptcy can be said to be his own doing. He originally wanted to spare Ye Minghua's life out of consideration for his relationship with Lin Ran, but he didn't expect this to happen. It seems that he was too soft-hearted.

Ye Minghua didn't know what Xiao Jingchen was thinking, but he keenly sensed the panic and subconsciously took a few steps back.

"Mr. Xiao, I...I just..."

Ye Minghua broke out in a cold sweat and stammered for a long time without being able to utter a single word.

"No money, huh? In that case, come work for Xiao's Group."

Hearing this, Ye Minghua was stunned for a long time, and even Lin Ran, who was standing to the side, looked up in surprise.

Xiao Jingchen doesn't seem like a soft-hearted person, so why this time...?

Could it be because of Ye Chuchu?

A pang of bitterness rose in Lin Ran's heart. She bit her lip hard, broke free from Xiao Jingchen's grip on her hand, and turned to walk into the company.

At the company entrance, Fu Sinian stood there, looking forlornly at the scene outside.

Another step too late.

But this time he was clearly closer, so why was he a step slower?

Xiao Jingchen looked at his hand that had suddenly missed its target, pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, and suppressed his urge to chase after him, wanting to deal with the matters that were not yet finished, and stood straight in place.

"Now that Ye Minghua is an employee of my Xiao Group, you all know how to write it, right?"

Xiao Jingchen was very unhappy when his hand was shaken off. He spoke slowly and deliberately, seemingly polite and courteous, but the coldness in his eyes could almost pierce through everyone present.

The public opinion that had been stirred up vanished instantly under Xiao Jingchen's manipulation, and no matter how hard one searched, no related topics could be found anymore.

Meanwhile, inside the Xiao family villa, Old Master Xiao frowned as he looked at the messages on his phone. After a while, his brows slowly relaxed, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Looks like this brat is finally starting to act like a man."

"Young Master will always grow up eventually."

Butler Xiao chimed in, agreeing with the suggestion.

The old man nodded with a smile and put away the documents he had prepared.

Since that brat wants to show off, he should give him some opportunities.

Meanwhile, inside FG Company, Lin Ran pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing the several people standing in the lobby, a warm glint flashed in her eyes.

"Why aren't you working properly? What are you doing standing here?"

Fu Sinian's complexion had returned to normal. He smiled and raised his chin, pointing towards the outside of the house.

"Didn't I just come to see what the fuss was about?"

"This is no fun at all, it's a complete joke."

Lin Ran shook his head with a wry smile, and the group returned to the office.

"Sister Ran, you don't know, the boss was so worried about you just now. When he found out you were trapped downstairs, he grabbed his weapon and was about to rush down to save you."

"However... I didn't expect that Xiao Jingchen would beat me to it."

Su Yi spoke seemingly unintentionally, but Lin Ran understood the meaning behind his words.

However, she was destined to be unable to reciprocate this sentiment.

Lin Ran took a deep breath to calm her pounding heart, but she couldn't bear to look at the documents on the table.

Why did Xiao Jingchen want Ye Minghua to work at Xiao's company? Was it really because of Ye Chuchu, even knowing that woman was that kind of person?

Lin Ran unconsciously tightened her grip, clenching the document in her hand until it became crumpled and crumpled.

Seeing this, the little deer next to her quickly nudged her arm.

"Ranran, you've ruined all the files. What are you thinking?"

Lin Ran snapped back to her senses, a blush slowly rising on her fair face.

"No, I didn't think anything."

"Really? But you looked jealous just now."

Little Deer approached with a gossipy look on her face.

"Is it because of President Xiao?"

Jealous?

Lin Ran paused for a few seconds, then gently placed her hand on her pounding heart.

Is she jealous?

"Actually, I think President Xiao has been treating you quite well lately, but he wasn't before."

"But he seems to know he was wrong, Ranran. I think you like him too, so why are you so resistant to these feelings?"

The usually slow-witted deer rarely spoke so much, and every word struck a chord with Lin Ran, causing her thoughts to drift away.
