The Cunning CEO's Contract Wife

Chapter 76 She must be eliminated.

Xiao Jingchen lowered his head in annoyance.

What was he just doing? Was he trying to curry favor with that woman?

That unfamiliar emotion welled up in his heart again. Xiao Jingchen snorted coldly and slammed the document in his hand onto the table.

Lin Ran was also startled by the sound. She looked upstairs, then at Xiao Jingchen sitting on the sofa. After hesitating for a few seconds, she decided to go downstairs.

"Um, thank you."

Lin Ran's soft, sweet voice rang out beside him. A flash of joy crossed Xiao Jingchen's eyes, but his face remained indifferent.

"Ah."

Lin Ran was speechless at these cold words and didn't know what to say. She could only stand silently to the side.

"You are now my wife in name only. You can ask me for help if you need anything."

After a long while, Xiao Jingchen suddenly said something. Lin Ran looked over, but could only see his slightly reddened earlobes.

This man is actually shy?

Meanwhile, on the second floor, Ye Chuchu stared at the two people downstairs with a jealous expression.

This shouldn't be happening. How could Xiao Jingchen tolerate something like that?

Shouldn't we kick that little bitch Lin Ran out immediately?

At this moment, Ye Chuchu had lost her usual gentle demeanor. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her right hand was clenched tightly into a ball, so much so that she didn't even notice her sharp nails piercing her palm.

She wished she could rush down right now and keep Lin Ran away from her Brother Xiao.

But remembering Xiao Jingchen's warning yesterday, she could only keep these thoughts to herself and dared not reveal them at all.

"Lin Ran, I won't let you get away with this!"

Ye Chuchu took one last deep look, then turned and went back to her room.

Late at night, when everyone had gone to bed, a door to a room on the second floor suddenly opened.

A figure stealthily left the villa.

At the Ye family home, Wang Mei had already received a call from Ye Chuchu and was waiting at the door.

Not long after, the furtive figure entered the Ye family's residence.

It was Ye Chuchu who left.

"Chuchu, what happened? Why did you suddenly come back in the middle of the night?"

Wang Mei frowned as she looked at her daughter beside her, and when she noticed the injury on her daughter's palm, she cried out in distress.

"My Chuchu, what happened to your injury?"

"Did that little bitch bully you?"

They are truly mother and daughter; even their words are exactly the same.

Ye Chuchu gritted her teeth and told Wang Mei about the photos.

"Mom, I don't care, you have to find a way to deal with her!"

"If this continues, Brother Xiao will definitely not want me anymore!"

A cold glint flashed across Wang Mei's face, and she spoke in a chilling tone.

"Don't worry, Chuchu. Since that little bitch is so unruly, we'll make her behave herself."

Ye Chuchu was taken aback, but after understanding Wang Mei's meaning, she was overjoyed.

The mother and daughter huddled together and whispered something, their faces both displaying the same sinister intent.

In the dead of night, when no one was watching, Ye Chuchu secretly returned to the villa.

And so, no one noticed.

The next morning, as soon as Lin Ran left the house, Ye Chuchu couldn't wait to follow her out.

Ye Chuchu made no attempt to hide herself and swaggered after Lin Ran.

"What are you following me for?"

Lin Ran originally didn't intend to interfere, but no matter how fast or slow she walked, Ye Chuchu followed her like a leech, and she couldn't ignore her even if she wanted to.

"Sister, there's something I want to tell you."

Lin Ran looked over with some surprise when she heard Ye Chuchu address her.

Is this person out of their mind?

Ye Chuchu understood her gaze and almost lost control of her temper, but thinking of her plan, she could only forcefully suppress her anger and keep a smile on her face.

"Sister, can I come over there with you and say a few words?"

Lin Ran glanced at the time; it was still early. She then looked at Ye Chuchu, who was clearly struggling to hold back her tears, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"Okay."

She was curious about what brilliant idea Ye Chuchu had come up with this time that made her smile at her for so long, even though it was a bit of a humiliation.

The two walked to a small park by the roadside. It was much quieter than the streets outside, but there were still quite a few people who got up early to exercise passing by, so Lin Ran wasn't worried about what Ye Chuchu might do.

As soon as the two walked over, the smile on Ye Chuchu's face vanished completely, as if it had never existed.

"Lin Ran, you actually dared to follow me."

A sinister voice rang out, and Lin Ran felt a bad premonition. She turned to run away, but a group of men had already surrounded her from behind.

"You're finished this time!"

As Ye Chuchu finished speaking, several men walked towards Lin Ran at the same time.

Lin Ran gritted her teeth, turned around and ran.

But how could she keep up with the speed of several men? She hadn't run more than a few steps when someone grabbed her arm and punched her in the stomach.

"what……"

The man showed no sign of restraint. Lin Ran felt a blur before her eyes and collapsed to the ground, her forehead covered in sweat from the pain, and the scene before her gradually blurred.

"Run, why don't you keep running?"

Ye Chuchu looked smugly at the disheveled woman on the ground, her eyes filled with malice.

"Lin Ran, don't even think about seducing Brother Xiao this time. He won't believe you anymore."

Lin Ran was in excruciating pain. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but before she could utter a sound, she collapsed.

It was the man behind me who made the move.

Ye Chuchu glared at her with some dissatisfaction.

"I hadn't finished speaking yet, how did you knock him out?"

"There are too many people here. If we stay any longer, we'll be discovered."

The man spoke expressionlessly, and his sinister appearance made Ye Chuchu feel a little uneasy.

"In that case, why don't we hurry up and take her away according to the plan?"

The man nodded, hoisted Lin Ran onto his shoulder, and left through a secluded path. Ye Chuchu looked around, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, she also collapsed.

However, she was carried out by several other men from a road that was under surveillance.

As soon as she got into the car, Ye Chuchu opened her eyes with a look of disgust and patted off non-existent dust from her body.

"It's so dirty."

As soon as the words were spoken, the faces of the men in the car immediately darkened, especially those who had just carried Ye Chuchu, whose faces turned as black as charcoal.

Surrounded by such gazes, even Ye Chuchu, their employer, couldn't help but shiver.

"What are you doing? Do you still want your money back?"

Ye Chuchu had no idea how ridiculous it was that she was saying such things while trembling.

Fortunately, those men were only after money and didn't have time to argue with Ye Chuchu.

Not long after, the man who had just carried Lin Ran away got into the car and casually tossed the still unconscious person onto a chair.
