The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 59 Not even qualified to file for divorce

Xiao Jingchen narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with hostility. After a long while, he chuckled and gripped his phone even tighter.

"Lin Ran, our original contract stipulated that you would cooperate with my divorce."

"You have no right to file for divorce."

Xiao Jingchen's voice was chillingly cold, filled with boundless rage.

But Lin Ran on the other end of the phone just pursed her lips and asked a question in return.

"Don't you want a divorce?"

A slightly doubtful voice rang out, and Xiao Jingchen even felt a moment of panic.

"How can it be!"

He paused, seemingly realizing his emotions were off, and could only try to salvage the situation by frowning.

"You think I would like you? Lin Ran, I dream of getting a divorce."

"If it weren't for the old man's will, you would have been kicked out of the Xiao family long ago."

After he finished speaking, there was no sound from the phone for a long time. Xiao Jingchen clicked his tongue and spoke impatiently.

"You have ten minutes. Go home right now."

His voice was as domineering as ever, and Lin Ran could even imagine his expression.

She had originally planned to explain why she wasn't going home tonight, but after hearing Xiao Jingchen's words, she suddenly lost the will to explain.

She hung up the phone without hesitation.

They're getting a divorce, and that place can hardly be considered her home anymore, so it's perfectly normal for her not to go back.

The hospital was almost silent in the middle of the night. Lin Ran arrived at Grandpa Xiao's ward and looked at the old man with his eyes closed on the bed. She felt a pang of guilt.

If it weren't for her, the old man wouldn't have been pushed down by Ye Chuchu.

The once energetic old man now looked as if he had run out of energy, his wrinkled face devoid of color.

"Grandpa Xiao, tell me, should I get a divorce or not?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Lin Ran carefully held Old Master Xiao's hand and asked softly, even though she wouldn't get an answer.

"He has someone he likes. Even if we were together, it wouldn't lead anywhere. Grandpa Xiao, should I let go?"

Lin Ran asked repeatedly, like a lost child.

After a long while, she sighed and raised her head.

Seeing the old man's somewhat bluish face, Lin Ran froze for two seconds, then suddenly panicked and pressed the call bell by the bedside.

The doctor rushed in quickly.

"Hospital, please take a look at my grandfather! Something seems wrong with his complexion."

The doctor panicked. He knew the old man's identity, and if something happened to him here, he might not survive. Thinking of this, his movements became more hurried.

"Hurry, help me get to the emergency room."

Lin Ran panicked and ran with the nurses to the emergency room, only to see the door closed.

“Xiao Jingchen…yes, I need to inform him right away.”

Lin Ran trembled as she took out her phone and dialed Xiao Jingchen's number.

Once, twice, three times...

No one answered the phone, not even Zhou Qing's.

Lin Ran gritted her teeth and looked at the last number on her phone.

That was something Xiao Yunsi specifically asked him to save.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Ran pressed the call button.

Fortunately, the call was answered quickly, and Xiao Yunsi's slightly tired voice came through the phone.

"Lin Ran? Has something happened?"

Lin Ran bit her lip, forcing herself to calm down.

"Xiao Yunsi, Grandpa has been taken to the emergency room. I can't get through to Xiao Jingchen on the phone, what should I do..."

"Don't worry, I'll be right there. I'll contact Xiao Jingchen."

Even at this moment, Xiao Yunsi's voice remained gentle, effectively calming Lin Ran's flustered emotions.

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ran felt much more at ease and sat on the bench, staring at the emergency room.

Little did she know that Xiao Jingchen was deliberately ignoring her calls.

Watching his phone ring repeatedly on the table, Xiao Jingchen remained expressionless, even placing Zhou Qing's phone on the table.

"Mr. Xiao, why don't you answer the call? Just in case something comes up."

Zhou Qing couldn't bear to watch any longer and said softly, but as soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Jingchen looked over.

"Is something wrong?"

"You hung up the phone so quickly, what could have happened?"

Xiao Jingchen snorted coldly and looked down at the documents in his hand.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Lin Ran watched as the door to the emergency room opened and the doctor rushed out in a panic.

"The old man needs a blood transfusion. Go and get some rare blood from Rh-negative blood sources."

"Damn it, hurry up! If anything happens to the old man, we're all finished!"

Seeing the doctor's anxious expression, Lin Ran also felt flustered, but her eyes flickered when she heard about Rh-negative blood.

"Doctor, what's Grandpa's condition now?"

"The situation is not good. The old man needs a blood transfusion, but he has a rare blood type. The hospital's blood bank doesn't have any rare blood, so we have to get some from somewhere else."

"Rh-negative blood..."

Lin Ran lowered her eyes, concealing the conflict within them.

"Doctor, I have rare blood type, please take mine."

Looking up again, Lin Ran's eyes were resolute.

Grandpa Xiao is one of the few people in the world who are kind to her. Besides, he was injured because of her, and now he can't contact Xiao Jingchen. How can she just stand by and watch him die?

"Okay, then hurry up and come with me."

Seeing her determination and considering Old Master Xiao's condition, the doctor nodded in agreement.

Lin Ran followed him to the blood donation room.

Looking at the needle, which was much thicker than usual for IV drips, Lin Ran silently shivered.

"Don't be afraid. This needle may look scary, but it doesn't hurt at all, really."

Seeing Lin Ran's fear, the doctor quickly made preparations while gently comforting her, but his words had little effect.

Lin Ran placed her delicate, fair arm on the table and quietly turned her head away, not daring to watch the doctor perform the procedure.

Time passed second by second, and the bag contained a considerable amount of blood.

As Lin Ran listened to the doctor's words, she kept clenching and unclenching her fists, and spoke with concern.

"Doctor, is this enough blood?"

The doctor paused, then shook his head.

"Then why stop? Let's smoke a little more."

Seeing that the doctor was about to stop, Lin Ran couldn't help but feel anxious.

"One person cannot donate that much blood; it's bad for their health."

"Doctor, please draw some more. I'm young and in good health, nothing will happen to me."

"Can't you just rest more then?"

The doctor was initially unwilling, but Lin Ran was so stubborn that he had no choice but to agree.

As blood was gradually lost, Lin Ran's vision began to blur.

"Lin Ran?"

A familiar voice rang in her ears, and Lin Ran strained her eyes to see Xiao Yunsi before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

It would be good if someone came to take care of Grandpa.

Lin Ran's eyelids gradually became heavy, and she could no longer hold on, so she fainted.
