The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 398 I only ask that you let me go for once

Inside the old house, Xiao Jingchen tossed his phone onto the table, as if listening to even a single word was a difficult task.

"If you don't mind, let's meet at the club tomorrow morning and have a proper talk about this."

Xiao Yunsi's voice was very calm, as if he wasn't the one who had been fighting Xiao Jingchen with swords just a few days ago.

"Xiao Yunsi, how many more times do you intend to use this tactic?"

Xiao Jingchen frowned and spoke in a cold, hard voice.

This wasn't the first time Xiao Yunsi had said something like this; every time, he would take the opportunity to do something else.

"Believe it or not, I'm serious this time."

Xiao Yunsi seemed to have been provoked, and his voice, which had been gentle before, was no longer gentle. After a pause, he let out a cold laugh.

"Don't forget, that old man is still in my hands. With just one word from me, my men will take care of him."

"Xiao Jingchen, I'm only willing to negotiate because I'm giving you face. Don't force me."

As soon as Xiao Yunsi finished speaking, Lin Ran keenly noticed that Xiao Jingchen's hand tightened and his expression turned ugly.

"That's it. Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, Xiao Jingchen, that old man's life will be in your hands."

After the call ended, Lin Ran looked at Xiao Jingchen's pale face and thought he was worried about Old Master Xiao. Unable to say anything to comfort him, she could only carefully hug him.

"Alright, don't worry. Since Xiao Yunsi said that, he definitely won't lay a hand on Grandpa as long as you go there."

Xiao Jingchen raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Ran, a hint of emotion hidden in his eyes that was hard to decipher. After a long while, he responded softly.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Neither of them slept well all night.

Lin Ran didn't fall asleep until dawn.

Xiao Jingchen, who was beside her, had not slept all night, his eyes fixed on Lin Ran's sleeping face, his expression unreadable.

Actually, when Xiao Yunsi threatened him, he wasn't thinking of the old man, but of Lin Ran.

A few years ago, Xiao Yunsi said the same thing, but that time, he didn't choose to believe him, so he missed the childhood of his two children and the opportunity to take care of Lin Ran.

Now, he will never make the same mistake twice.

Xiao Jingchen checked the time and carefully got out of bed.

Actually, he wasn't worried about the old man.

Just as the old man believed in him, he also believed that his grandfather would not be so embarrassed by Xiao Yunsi's petty tricks.

When the time came to the hotel, Xiao Yunsi had cleared out the entire club.

He was sitting in the most conspicuous spot in the entire hall, his eyes fixed on the direction of the entrance.

After what seemed like an eternity, I finally saw that familiar figure walking towards me.

"Xiao Jingchen, you've arrived."

Xiao Yunsi breathed a sigh of relief and handed over the cup in his hand.

But Xiao Jingchen didn't even spare a glance, and sat down calmly.

"Tell me your purpose."

Xiao Yunsi paused, a fierce glint flashing in his narrow eyes, but when he lowered his head again, the emotion in his eyes vanished instantly.

"Haven't I already stated my purpose? I'll sell you the shares, you give me the money, and I'll leave. How about that?"

Xiao Jingchen's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Xiao Yunsi, you're really boring."

"If there's nothing else, I'll excuse myself."

Xiao Yunsi was not surprised at all. He slowly took out the transfer document he had prepared, placed it on the table, and gently pushed it over.

"How about you take a look at this?"

"As I said before, I came here with sincerity, but I don't know if President Xiao is willing to give me this opportunity."

Xiao Yunsi humbled himself enough that even though Xiao Jingchen knew there was a trap, he still couldn't help but pick up the document and take a look.

It was indeed a share transfer agreement, and Xiao Yunsi had even signed it.

pity……

Xiao Jingchen's lips curled up slightly, but the sarcasm in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

Based on his understanding of Xiao Yunsi, this was absolutely impossible.

I just don't know what his purpose is this time.

Before the thought had even completely dissipated, footsteps suddenly came from outside.

Several thugs carrying wooden sticks barged in and, seeing the two people sitting there, attacked them without hesitation.

Xiao Jingchen pushed the chair over, slightly obstructing the way, then grabbed another chair in his hand and glared fiercely at the thugs around him.

Those people were startled by his gaze, and they were all stunned for a long time before they came to their senses.

Xiao Yunsi looked terrified. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that almost none of the thugs were attacking him; all their energy was focused on Xiao Jingchen.

In a small park not far from the club, Zhou Qing was squatting there with his men, looking bored. Hearing the sounds of fighting coming from afar, he paused for a few seconds before rushing over with his men.

They couldn't cross the short distance of just a few hundred meters directly.

Dozens of thugs suddenly appeared on the way, all carrying weapons and blocking their way.

No matter how anxious Zhou Qing was, there was no way to get around it, so he could only focus on dealing with the person in front of him.

In a corner they hadn't noticed, a petite figure quietly slipped past the crowd.

Inside the club, almost all the tables around were smashed. Although Xiao Jingchen looked a bit disheveled, he didn't lose any ground.

Seeing this, Xiao Yunsi couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Seeing that Xiao Jingchen wasn't paying attention, he quietly picked up the stick from the ground, staring intently at it, his face filled with barely concealed hatred.

As long as he gets the job, and as long as Xiao Jingchen becomes crippled, then the position of president of the Xiao Group will be his for the taking.

After all, Xiao's shareholders would not agree to let a nobody become the president of Xiao's Group.

Outside the club, Lin Ran ran desperately, glancing back as she ran. She saw that Fu Sinian's men had arrived, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

When she woke up and saw that Xiao Jingchen was not there, she guessed where he had gone.

Having witnessed Xiao Yunsi's shamelessness, Lin Ran couldn't help but feel worried.

Even though Xiao Jingchen had brought people with him beforehand, what if...?

After hesitating for a few minutes, Lin Ran resolutely dialed Fu Sinian's number.

Pulling herself back to reality, Lin Ran stared at the scene inside the club, her eyes wide with surprise.

"Xiao Jingchen, watch out behind you!"

Xiao Yunsi's eyes turned cold, and he slammed the object down with ruthless force.

It seemed that no one in the club expected Lin Ran to suddenly arrive and stand in front of Xiao Jingchen without hesitation.
