The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 235 1 Nothing

From that day on, Lin Ran never went to the company again, except on the day of the bidding, when she came out of her room.

Her originally pale face looked a bit rosier thanks to the rest she had been getting, but her back view made her look even thinner.

Lin Ran carefully concealed her belly under her loose clothes, looked in the mirror for a long time, and only came out of the room after confirming that there was nothing wrong.

After all, she personally submitted the bid proposal, so she still had to go and see it at such an important moment, no matter what.

The bidding event was very grand, and Lin Ran immediately spotted Xiao Yunsi sitting in the audience.

Unlike his usual gentle and reserved demeanor, Xiao Yunsi's eyes were brimming with barely suppressed excitement today.

He seemed to have seen Lin Ran as well, and gave her a dazzling smile.

Lin Ran trembled, her face stiffened as she shifted her position, but her previously calm heart suddenly began to pound.

At this moment, Xiao Jingchen also noticed the interaction between the two. His originally cold gaze instantly turned gloomy, and he gripped the pen in his hand tightly.

As expected, Lin Ran revealed her true colors, choosing to meet Xiao Yunsi today. She really couldn't hold back.

Good, he'll make that woman understand today how wrong her choice was.

At the crucial moment of the bidding, Xiao Yunsi, who was originally sitting in the audience, made a move. He walked onto the stage and participated in the bidding under the surprised gazes of the crowd.

“Your Xiao family already has one representative, what’s the point of having another? I don’t agree.”

Soon, someone refused, and even Xiao Jingchen looked at him with a surprised expression.

Xiao Yunsi's long-suppressed emotions suddenly erupted.

"I'm not here on behalf of the Xiao family, I'm here on behalf of the Kuangyu Group."

As Xiao Yunsi finished speaking, looking at the differences on everyone's faces, he felt a sense of satisfaction.

Without hesitation, he shouted out his price, which was exactly one dollar more than Xiao Jingchen's proposal.

Xiao Yunsi did this not only to win the bid with the lowest price, but also to humiliate Xiao Jingchen.

But when he looked over, he found that Xiao Jin didn't seem flustered at all after succeeding; in fact, he even had a strange smile on his face.

Xiao Yunsi paused for a few seconds, then suddenly realized something was wrong.

Apart from Xiao Jingchen, the other competitors also looked surprised, their gazes towards Xiao Yunsi filled with shock and a hint of disdain.

"Xiao Jingchen, you tricked me?"

Xiao Yunsi took a deep breath and looked at today's bidding details. His pupils contracted slightly, and even his palms trembled a little.

This is different from what I had previously been optimistic about; in fact, it's completely different.

"I take back what I just said, I don't want this land."

As is well known, once a bid is made at a bidding meeting, it cannot be taken back, no matter what.

But Xiao Yunsi has clearly lost all sense of shame, actually saying such things.

The result was obvious: no matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to spend a lot of money to take over that mess.

After the bidding meeting ended, Xiao Jingchen looked at Xiao Yunsi, who was slumped in his seat, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips.

"Xiao Yunsi, how is it? This is a big gift I prepared for you. Do you like it?"

Xiao Yunsi stared at the man in front of him with a disoriented look in his eyes, his eyes bloodshot.

"Xiao Jingchen! You've set me up!"

"No, it's that bitch Lin Ran! You all conspired to frame me!"

Xiao Yunsi seemed to have gone mad, losing all his previous gentleness and composure.

Hearing him address Lin Ran by that name, Xiao Jingchen frowned imperceptibly, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.

Didn't he and Lin Ran already have an affair? Why is he so angry?

Xiao Jingchen didn't have time to think it through. He watched as Xiao Yunsi stumbled away with the piece of paper worth hundreds of billions.

Meanwhile, Lin Ran, who was hiding in a corner watching the whole thing, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of how the matter is resolved, as long as the company doesn't suffer any losses because of her, that's fine.

Lin Ran's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. She wrapped her coat tighter around herself and turned to leave, but in the next second, Xiao Jingchen pulled her into his arms.

"What? You saw that Xiao Yunsi was wronged and you're rushing to comfort him?"

A slightly mocking voice rang in my ears, carrying a hint of chill.

Lin Ran took a deep breath, suppressing her dissatisfaction.

"I know you won't believe me, so I won't go back to the company. Are you satisfied with that?"

Compared to her previous pleading, Lin Ran's tone was now very cold.

Xiao Jingchen frowned, let go of her hand, and watched Lin Ran leave step by step without saying another word.

Even though everything has been resolved, why does he still feel so upset?

"Brother Jingchen, why are you standing here? Let's go back quickly!"

Ye Chuchu had witnessed the entire scene. Watching Lin Ran leave, she walked over smugly, like a victorious rooster.

Looking at the arm that had climbed onto his arm, Xiao Jingchen frowned, suppressed his disgust, and quietly pulled the arm away.

"I still have some things to take care of at the company, so I'll head back now."

Having said that, he didn't even look at Ye Chuchu's gaze, which seemed to want him to stay, and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Xiao Yunsi made one phone call after another, but no one answered the hot potato he was holding.

The company he had painstakingly built was thus wasted.

Xiao Yunsi looked at the document in his hand, his voice hoarse, revealing a strange undertone.

"Xiao Jingchen, Lin Ran, do you think you can stop me like this? I still have the surname Xiao, and I also have a share in the Xiao family."

"I can make a comeback, I can do it."

As if he had gone mad, Xiao Yunsi muttered to himself.

He invested all the assets he had painstakingly saved over the years into that project that was destined to yield no return, and he almost lost even his villa.

No matter how dissatisfied Xiao Yunsi was, he couldn't stop it and could only watch helplessly as he lost everything.

After finally managing to resolve all these matters, he encountered further trouble upon returning to the Xiao family.

Xiao Yunshi angrily pressed his fingerprint on the door, but was repeatedly prompted by the system that the fingerprint was incorrect.

"Damn it! How could it be a mistake!"

Xiao Yunsi slammed his fist on the edge of the door, his chest heaving violently, which showed just how angry he was.

He looked around and called over the security guards who were patrolling the area.

"The door is broken, open it for me quickly, I need to get in."

Xiao Yunsi raised his chin, his tone arrogant, the feigned gentleness gone.
