The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 211 is a joyous occasion.

At the hospital, Lin Ran made many appointments but no problems were found. Finally, the doctor told her to have an ultrasound.

Although she didn't know how this had anything to do with her vomiting, Lin Ran still obediently went to get it done, and after receiving the results, she couldn't wait to find the doctor.

"Do I have some kind of terminal illness?"

Lin Ran asked with a worried expression, her pale face making her look quite pitiful.

Although we found something strange about my mother's illness before, we didn't have any evidence. It would be bad if it was a hereditary disease.

The doctor was a man in his forties or fifties. He picked up Lin Ran's report, glanced at it, and couldn't stop smiling.

"This is wonderful news! You're a lucky child."

"A big happy event?"

Lin Ran was stunned. She was already sick, so why was the doctor talking nonsense?

On the way to the hospital, she gagged as soon as she smelled the food; she didn't look like she was expecting anything.

"Silly child, you're pregnant."

The doctor wasn't in a hurry. He smiled, pushed up his glasses, and glanced meaningfully at Lin Ran's stomach.

"This must be your first pregnancy, right? It's normal to feel uncomfortable, you'll get used to it."

The doctor kept repeating the precautions, but Lin Ran couldn't listen to a single word.

She stared blankly at the report, blinked, and seemed not to have reacted yet.

"I am pregnant?"

"Yes, you're pregnant. The baby is developing well. Remember to come for your prenatal checkups on time."

Lin Ran couldn't quite explain her feelings.

She raised her hand and gently touched her still-unchanged belly, somewhat dazed.

She was pregnant with Xiao Jingchen's child.

Thinking back to the fire not long ago, Lin Ran suddenly felt a sense of lingering fear.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened at the time.

"Alright, take your report and go home. If you can't eat that stuff, find something to eat. You can't go hungry."

"I understand, doctor. Thank you."

Lin Ran's palms were soaked with sweat. She stared at the thin report for a long time and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth up.

She hugged the paper to her chest, took a deep breath, and her steps became lighter.

She wanted to tell Xiao Jingchen about it right now, but she stopped before she could make the call.

It's better to talk about these things face-to-face.

Lin Ran excitedly returned home, only to find Xiao Jingchen, who should have been at work.

He was actually at home!

"Xiao Jingchen!"

Lin Ran ran over excitedly, about to speak, but was so frightened by Xiao Jingchen's cold gaze that she stood still and stared blankly at him.

"came back?"

Xiao Jingchen's voice seemed to be filled with ice, and his gaze toward Lin Ran was filled with disgust.

"what happened to you?"

Lin Ran panicked and subconsciously took two steps back.

Xiao Jingchen's appearance terrified her.

"what happened?"

Xiao Jingchen chuckled softly and tossed the item he had taken from Ye Chuchu over to her.

Lin Ran picked it up blankly, and after just one glance, her face turned pale.

Xiao Jingchen didn't need to ask any further questions; he could guess what she was thinking just by looking at her expression, and his face grew even more gloomy.

He took a step forward and gripped Lin Ran's chin tightly.

The anger in his eyes seemed to scorch a person.

"You disgust me."

Lin Ran trembled, and tears streamed down her face.

She looked at Xiao Jingchen with disbelief, as if she had suffered a huge blow.

Tears fell onto Xiao Jingchen's hand, burning hot.

He abruptly released his grip, shoved Lin Ran, and turned to leave.

Lin Ran hadn't recovered from the huge blow when she was pushed. She lost her footing and was about to fall to the ground. She could only frantically protect her stomach.

"Xiao Jingchen! Don't you want to hear my explanation?"

Watching the man's resolute back, Lin Ran cried out in anguish.

But the man only paused for a moment, then left without looking back.

The cold night wind blew in through the cracks in the door.

Lin Ran bit her lip hard, looked at the reports on the ground, found her pregnancy test report, and hugged it tightly to her chest.

The once warm living room was now unusually cold. She slumped to the floor, listening to the car drive away, and could no longer hold back her tears.

The entire villa echoed with Lin Ran's desperate cries. Although it was a summer night, she felt as if she were in an ice cellar, freezing cold.

At that moment, a maid secretly slipped out from the corner, edited Xiao Jingchen's schedule into a text message, and sent it out.

Ye Chuchu had been waiting for a long time, and the moment she saw the text message, she could no longer contain her excitement.

She couldn't wait to leave, her destination being the bar Xiao Jingchen had gone to.

When Ye Chuchu arrived, Xiao Jingchen was already half-drunk, and there were beer bottles scattered all over the floor.

"Brother Jingchen? Are you alright?"

Ye Chuchu asked timidly and moved closer.

Xiao Jingchen reeked of alcohol. He squinted at Ye Chuchu but showed no expression. He simply downed another gulp of his drink.

The cold liquor flowed down his throat, but Xiao Jingchen felt no joy at all; instead, his heart grew heavier.

Ye Chuchu stared intently at Xiao Jingchen's Adam's apple, her eyes filled with undisguised affection.

"Lin Ran..."

Xiao Jingchen was drunk. Looking at the gradually blurring figure in front of him, he called out softly.

He paused, as if remembering something, and gave a self-deprecating smile before gulping down another mouthful of wine.

He didn't notice that Ye Chuchu beside him stiffened, her eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.

"Lin Ran, it's Lin Ran again! What's so good about that bitch?!"

Ye Chuchu looked at Xiao Jingchen's somewhat dazed appearance, her expression changed, as if she had made some kind of decision.

“Brother Jingchen, if you’re unhappy, drink more. I’ll keep you company.”

Ye Chuchu said softly, replacing the beer in front of Xiao Jingchen with spirits as she spoke.

Xiao Jingchen was already half-drunk, and Ye Chuchu had made him drink a lot of strong liquor, so his stomach felt like it was on fire.

My vision was blurry, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

"Brother Jingchen? Do you know who I am?"

Ye Chuchu, seeing that it was almost done, leaned closer and asked again.

But Xiao Jingchen was unable to answer. He was so drunk that he could only blink frantically, trying to see the person in front of him clearly.

"Brother Jingchen, let me take you to the hotel to rest."

Ye Chuchu smiled shyly and led the person out of the bar.

Although Xiao Jingchen tolerated her because of what had happened before, it was ultimately fake.

She wanted to make that thing a reality, so that Xiao Jingchen would have no way to deny it anymore.
