Chapter 153 If you want to keep Ye Shi, treat her better.
Xiao Jingchen tapped his index finger lightly on the table a few times, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Pack your things, and come back with me later."
Ye Chuchu stared wide-eyed in surprise, glanced shyly at Xiao Jingchen, nodded gently, and was secretly delighted.
She reached out and gently touched the wound on her face, her eyes filled with joy. However, Xiao Jingchen thought she was sad, and his guilt deepened.
He quickly finished his work, and Zhou Qing, as he had instructed, had bought a lot of luxury goods and was waiting downstairs.
"Let's go."
Xiao Jingchen stood up, his deep eyes looking at Ye Chuchu sitting on the sofa, his tone gentle.
The latter seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then nodded and followed behind him.
Because the two of them took Xiao Jingchen's private elevator downstairs, they didn't encounter anyone along the way, which made Ye Chuchu somewhat dissatisfied.
If she could, she would love to let the whole world know about it.
Downstairs, Xiao Jingchen seemed to pause for a moment when he saw the truck.
"Mr. Xiao, do you think these things are enough to make an impression?"
Zhou Qing had no idea what was going on at the company. She only heard Xiao Jingchen say that he wanted to save face, so she bought out all the luxury goods in the mall without hesitation.
Xiao Jingchen wanted to say something, but when he caught sight of Ye Chuchu's bright eyes beside him, he swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Let's go to the Ye family."
"Yes, Mr. Xiao. The Ye family?"
Zhou Qing subconsciously responded, but after hearing the destination clearly, he froze. Seeing Ye Chuchu behind him with a shy expression, he suddenly understood something.
Is it too late for him to send a different truckload of goods over now?
"Brother Jingchen, aren't these things too much? You don't need to spend so much money."
On the other side, Ye Chuchu suddenly thought of something, frowned, and looked embarrassed.
"Get in the car."
These were nothing to Xiao Jingchen, and besides, this was compensation, so he certainly didn't think it was too much.
Ye Chuchu was unaware of his thoughts; she only felt that she still had a chance, and got into the car with a shy expression.
Ye Minghua felt a pang of panic when he saw the car at the door.
He recognized it as Xiao Jingchen's car, and remembering his warning when he came to his house last time, his back was soaked with cold sweat.
"Mr. Xiao..."
Ye Minghua wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and went over. He had only said two words when he caught sight of Ye Chuchu who had come down with him, and his expression immediately changed.
Xiao Jingchen acted as if he hadn't seen him at all, walked straight into the villa, and sat down on the sofa by himself.
Even though Ye Minghua was unhappy, he could only secretly follow along.
"Chuchu, why didn't you tell us in advance that President Xiao was coming? We were caught completely unprepared."
Ye Chuchu looked at the fawning smile on her father's face, his eyes full of sarcasm, but his face still looked innocent.
"Dad, it's because Brother Jingchen insisted on coming."
Upon seeing the injury on Ye Chuchu's face, Ye Minghua's pupils contracted, and he had a sense of unease.
Sure enough, Xiao Jingchen spoke the next second.
"Mr. Ye, I think you wouldn't want to see your company go bankrupt, would you?"
He paused, then chuckled softly, raising his eyes to look at the man bending over in front of him, a warning in his eyes.
"If you want to keep your throne in the Ye family, then be nicer to Chu Chu, and let me find out she's injured again..."
Xiao Jingchen didn't continue speaking. He held a lit cigarette between his slender fingers, took a deep drag, and then stubbed it out on the table.
"If Ye Chuchu is doing well, then the Ye family will be doing well. If she has any complaints, well, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Ye Minghua nodded repeatedly, assuring Ye Chuchu that he would treat her well.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xiao. From now on, Chu Chu will be the boss in our family. She will have the final say and will never be wronged."
Seeing that he was so sensible, Xiao Jingchen was quite satisfied.
"Brother Jingchen, thank you."
Ye Chuchu blushed slightly and carefully sat down next to Xiao Jingchen. Seeing that he did not refuse, she was even more excited and secretly gave a wink to a certain spot.
With Xiao Jingchen's permission, Ye Minghua sat on the sofa, and Wang Mei sat next to her. The two of them spared no effort to please the man in front of them, but from a distance, the scene looked more like an engagement.
While they were chatting, Ye Chuchu took out her phone and sent the photo to Lin Ran using another phone number.
Even if Xiao Jingchen doesn't like her now, she absolutely cannot let Lin Ran know about this.
As she wished, Lin Ran's already low spirits reached their peak after seeing the photos.
She kept zooming in and out of the photo, looking at it dozens of times, but couldn't find a single flaw.
This proves that the photo is genuine, and even the time it was taken is clearly marked on it.
Lin Ran gritted her teeth, her eyes stinging with tears.
How could she forget? Wasn't Ye Chuchu the one Xiao Jingchen truly loved?
He didn't like Jiang Rao, but he didn't like her either.
Lin Ran curled up in bed and stared at the photos on her phone for a long, long time, her heart going from pain to numbness.
When Xiao Jingchen arrived at the hospital, all he saw was that little bundle huddled under the blanket. He frowned and walked over, just in time to see Lin Ran turn off her phone and close her eyes.
The entire sequence of movements was performed in one smooth motion, as if it had been rehearsed a million times.
Xiao Jingchen was taken aback, standing there seemingly at a loss.
He knew Lin Ran wasn't asleep, but the woman's behavior clearly indicated she didn't want to talk, so he could only patiently sit to the side.
One of them pretended to be asleep, while the other waited; neither of them spoke.
Xiao Jingchen wanted to speak, but seeing Lin Ran's resistant expression made him uncomfortable, so he swallowed his words.
As the sun set, Xiao Jingchen stood up and left the ward.
Lin Ran, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes. She sat up abruptly and looked in the direction Xiao Jingchen had left, tears streaming down her face.
Large tears fell one by one, but she stubbornly refused to make a sound. Her silent tears were all the more heartbreaking.
With a defiant shout, the door opened again. Lin Ran wiped away her tears in a fluster and looked up.
Fortunately, it wasn't Xiao Jingchen who came in.
“The nurse said you didn’t eat lunch. That won’t do. I waited in line for a long time to buy you some porridge.”
"Why are you crying again?"
Xiao Yunsi approached with a smile, only then noticing the tear stains on Lin Ran's face, and his expression immediately turned tense.
"Who bullied you? Or does your wound hurt?"
Lin Ran had already stopped crying, but after hearing Xiao Yunsi's concern, tears involuntarily started falling again.
At first, it was just soft sobbing, but suddenly the sound grew louder and louder.
Xiao Yunsi didn't offer any more comfort. Instead, he silently handed over a tissue, listening to Lin Ran's indistinct complaints.
