The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 208 My Sister's Secret

Xiao Jingchen had never taken care of anyone before, yet he gave many of his "firsts" to Lin Ran.

Following the nurse's instructions, he gently wiped Lin Ran's lips with a cotton swab, his careful and attentive manner as if he were handling some fragile work of art.

"water……"

A faint voice rang out in the ward.

A hint of joy flashed across Xiao Jingchen's face as he carried over the water that had been prepared earlier.

He carefully helped Lin Ran up and brought the water glass to her lips.

"Here, drink water."

Lin Ran gulped down the entire glass of water before stopping, her originally dry lips becoming plump and moisturized by the water.

Xiao Jingchen stared at those crimson lips for a long time, his throat bobbing, before he finally managed to look away.

"Xiao Jingchen?"

Lin Ran called out weakly and quickly received a response. She pouted in grievance and tears fell.

"I thought I was going to die."

"No, you won't die with me here."

Hearing Xiao Jingchen's rare words of love, Lin Ran blushed deeply. She blinked and shyly snuggled into his arms.

"By the way, I think I saw Xiao Yunsi before I fainted. Was it him who rescued me?"

Lin Ran spoke cautiously, afraid of angering Xiao Jingchen by mentioning Xiao Yunsi's name.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingchen remained calm, seemingly not taking the matter to heart at all.

"Well, it's him."

"But I've already compensated him, and he's fine."

Seeing the somewhat worried look in Lin Ran's eyes, Xiao Jingchen felt displeased and subtly revealed what had happened.

Lin Ran stared at him blankly for a long time, then suddenly laughed.

"Xiao Jingchen, you look so cute."

Lin Ran originally wanted to say that Xiao Jingchen was cute when he was jealous, but considering someone's feelings, she changed her words before she could finish.

"cute?"

Xiao Jingchen raised an eyebrow, his tone inexplicably making Lin Ran feel a little dangerous. Just as she was about to push him away, his handsome face loomed larger and larger in front of her, until finally something warm touched her lips.

Lin Ran blinked blankly, then heard a soft laugh.

"Idiot, close your eyes."

The atmosphere inside the ward was romantic, while outside the door, Ye Chuchu was practically grinding her teeth to powder.

She stared angrily at the scene inside the room, consumed by jealousy.

She left after arguing with Lin Ran that day, unaware of the fire and even less aware that Lin Ran had almost perished in the flames.

Of course, even if she found out, she would just applaud and cheer, and might even give her a push.

She originally went to the company to find Xiao Jingchen, but he wasn't there for several days in a row.

Ye Chuchu then realized something was wrong and it took her a while to find out what was going on.

Although she didn't want to see Lin Ran, she was willing to suffer some grievances for Xiao Jingchen's sake.

Who would have thought that I would see such a shocking scene as soon as I arrived?

Ye Chuchu wasn't stupid; she knew that going in now would only make Xiao Jingchen dislike her and serve no other purpose.

She glared at Lin Ran's amorous expression before turning and leaving.

In the Ye family villa, Wang Mei was organizing her valuable jewelry in her room.

Since Xiao Jingchen appeared at the Ye family's gathering, the company has been soaring. People from other companies give them face to some extent because of the Xiao family.

All of this was brought about by Ye Chuchu, so Ye Minghua naturally treated the mother and daughter extremely well.

Wang Mei then bought all the jewelry and bags she hadn't bought before.

Even if Ye Minghua harbored some dissatisfaction, he would never voice it.

Just as Wang Mei was wiping her jewelry, the door was suddenly opened with a bang. Startled, she quickly covered the jewelry on the table.

"Who?"

She breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the person who came in was Ye Chuchu, and stopped trying to cover herself up.

"Chuchu, didn't you go to find Xiao Jingchen? Why are you back so soon?"

Wang Mei's eyes were fixed on her jewelry, and she didn't notice Ye Chuchu's aggrieved expression at all.

This made Ye Chuchu even more dissatisfied.

She slammed her bag to the ground, sat down angrily, and recounted everything she had seen at the hospital.

Wang Mei's expression gradually turned serious upon hearing this.

The Ye family owes its current status to Xiao Jingchen, but if he really falls for that bitch Lin Ran, the Ye family will have no chance of survival.

"Mom! Why aren't you saying anything? What should I do now?"

“Brother Jingchen doesn’t like me anymore. Even if I bring up what happened that night, it won’t make a difference. What should I do?”

Ye Chuchu cried her heart out, but she didn't notice the fleeting joy on Wang Mei's face.

"Yes, and what happened that night too. How could I forget something so important?"

Ye Chuchu looked at her blankly, her eyes filled with clear stupidity.

"Hmph, Lin Ran thinks everything's fine just because Xiao Jingchen likes her. She has no idea who the man was that night. All we need to do is..."

Wang Mei smiled sinisterly and whispered in Ye Chuchu's ear.

The mother and daughter had remarkably similar expressions.

"Mom, will this work?"

"Trust me, you won't go wrong. Even ordinary men can't handle this kind of thing, let alone someone like Xiao Jingchen."

"As long as you show him this evidence, I guarantee that Lin Ran will never be able to get in your way again."

Wang Mei carefully lifted the bed board and took out several surgical consent forms.

The information above clearly shows the surgery Lin Ran underwent before her marriage, and even includes her fingerprints and signature.

There's no way to deny it now.

Holding those thin sheets of paper, Ye Chuchu seemed to hold Lin Ran's life in her hands, and she laughed foolishly.

"Lin Ran, let's see what you can do this time!"

Ye Chuchu couldn't wait a minute longer. She took out her phone, typed a message, and sent it to Xiao Jingchen, then held the phone up to wait for a reply.

In the hospital room, Xiao Jingchen's phone vibrated several times. He frowned in annoyance, took out his phone, and glanced at it.

"Is it something to do at work? Why don't you go and take care of your work first? I'm fine."

Seeing his predicament, Lin Ran assumed something had happened at the company and urged him to leave anxiously.

Xiao Jingchen shook his head, and just as he was about to speak, another message came in.

"Brother Jingchen, I have something to tell you about my sister, it's very important."

"I promise, this is really important. Could you come over?"

"Brother Jingchen, aren't you curious? What exactly is my sister's secret?"

Several messages came from Ye Chuchu in a row. Xiao Jingchen's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of struggle flashed across his face.
