His contract wife usually appears delicate and weak, but at critical moments, her words can be quite sharp. Pan Ya was so angry that he pointed at her nose and scolded her, wondering why he didn't call her "baby" affectionately like before.
"President Ye, this must be a misunderstanding. You must not listen to Lan Baobao; this woman's words are not trustworthy. I don't know if you've heard, but this woman has been quite promiscuous outside. I've heard rumors about her having many suitors, though I can't confirm if it's true. Still, it's better for you to investigate this matter!"
Chen Huanya smiled sweetly, her voice flirtatious as she batted her long eyelashes at Ye Zixun, trying to cover up the situation. If that didn't work, she aimed to drag Lan Baobao down with her; perhaps then Lan Baobao wouldn't become Ye Zixun's bride.
Lan Baobao twitched her lips, revealing a look of disdain.
Promiscuous? What a joke! Lan Baobao had only two men in her life: one was Pan Xinzi, whom she had only dated without even a kiss, and the other was Ye Zixun, whom she had pounced on without even dating.
Seriously, you two scoundrels! Even if you want to plead with Ye Zixun, don't frame the innocent! Scum like you deserve to die!
Ye Zixun raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on his face as he grabbed Lan Baobao's hand and patted her thigh. His tone was cool as he asked, "Lan Baobao, do you have many suitors? Are they all terrible?"
"Well... before I met you, there were none. After meeting you... I have been pursued by someone, but we never got together. Every time it seemed like it was about to happen, the person backed out. Maybe it's because my child is difficult to handle!"
Ye Zixun knew his own child well; it would be strange if he were easy to manage.
Especially Mumu the pup—most men who got close to her mother ended up utterly defeated.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true! Although this world is colorful and I don't want to lose to my future husband, my abilities are limited. I've only truly dated one person before you, but we never even kissed. And you..." Lan Baobao glanced at Ye Zixun, noticing his eyes twitching slightly as if they could shoot lasers.
Implying that he had too many women and a romantic life that made her envious and eager to try?
Lan Baobao shook her head vigorously and laughed. "Actually, I'm more suited for a stable life. A life with many partners isn't right for me or my two babies."
"You know that's good."
The couple was bickering over here, while Pan Ya over there wanted to say something. Gathering his courage, he interjected, "President Ye, we are all business people. What company hasn't faced cash flow issues? As long as the Ye Family gives us this order, our company can still serve you as usual!"
"Just now, my fiancée made it very clear. It's not that I don't want to give you a chance, Mr. Pan. Your company is handling things like a joke, yet you come here to discuss these matters with us. Don't you find that ridiculous? I suggest you restore your company's reputation first, and then we can discuss the rest! Lan Baobao, see them out."
"But President Ye..."
Pan Ya was unwilling to leave and wanted to linger a bit longer. Ye Zixun's cold and sharp gaze swept over him without courtesy, causing the temperature in the room to drop several degrees. A strange fear permeated everyone in the office, making it hard for them to lift their heads.
"Lan Baobao, see them out!"
Ye Zixun's voice was flat and icy as he elegantly walked over to his oversized desk and sat down. His handsome face radiated an oppressive aura that chilled the entire room.
Lan Baobao opened the door and said, "You two, please."
Chen Huanya's face had turned pale. She had originally planned to secretly approach Ye Zixun after this meeting to flirt with him a bit more, but the atmosphere was simply unbearable.
As she followed Lan Baobao out of the office, she suddenly felt that the air outside was very pleasant and warm.
"You're out? It wasn't long in there! How did it go? Did you manage to charm him?" Amy asked with a grin, her arms crossed as she looked at them.
Amy was somewhat of a veteran in the workplace; seeing their expressions as they came out told her that the negotiation had not gone well. She didn't like the flirty Chen Huanya either and took this opportunity to kick her while she was down, which made her feel quite pleased and normal in her estrogen levels.
"Lan Baobao, how could you do this to your fellow classmate?" Pan Ya exclaimed angrily.
Lan Baobao shrugged and smiled, "Classmate? Sorry, but although my memory isn't great, I really don't remember having a classmate who is in their thirties or forties! Mr. Pan, if you want to discuss business, please make an appointment with President Ye for another time. Today's time has already passed. Once your company's issues are resolved and your reputation restored, we welcome you anytime. But for now, please leave!"
She gestured for them to exit. Pan Ya felt it inappropriate to act out on someone else's turf and left angrily with Chen Huanya.
The first battle was a success, and Lan Baobao suddenly let out a cunning laugh: "You dare to frame me? That woman actually said in front of Ye Zixun that I have many admirers, almost scared me to death!"
"That woman is clearly not a good person. You need to be cautious of such a vixen; if you're not careful, you might get pulled down by others!"
"Amy, I really didn't expect you to have so much experience in this area!"
"Of course! I've seen plenty of these palace intrigues and family feuds. Women, as long as they set their sights on something they want, can do anything. Luckily, I already have a boyfriend; otherwise, I can't guarantee I wouldn't compete with you!"
"Oh wow, I didn't know you had a boyfriend! You should have mentioned it earlier when we met. When are you going to take him out for a walk and introduce him?"
"I really want to take him out for a stroll, but he's studying abroad right now and can't come back for the time being. Once he returns, I'll bring him to meet you!"
When Amy mentioned her boyfriend, a sweet smile appeared on her face.
How nice it is to have a boyfriend who brings sweetness just by thinking about him! Unlike her own husband, who only made her feel anxious whenever he was mentioned!
After the day's ups and downs, Lan Baobao returned home around nine o'clock in the evening. Li Xiaoran was wearing a white tank top and oversized shorts meant for men, barefoot, holding a beer bottle in one hand and duck neck in the other, crying uncontrollably while watching a Korean drama on TV.
"What’s wrong? You can still cry over such deceptive things as Korean dramas?"
"It’s precisely because they’re deceptive that they’re touching!"
Lan Baobao took off her clothes and changed into her underwear, grabbed a bottle of beer from the fridge, and sat down next to Li Xiaoran. The male lead in the Korean drama always had triangular eyes, while the female lead was always innocent with big eyes—kind-hearted, gentle, and delicate. All the tragedies and bizarre events in the world seemed to happen to them; Lan Baobao could even come up with plots in her mind.
"Xiao Xiao, there are only two weeks left."
"Yes, in two weeks you're getting married! I'll mark the outside of your red envelope when I hand it to you personally. After the wedding is over, remember to return it to me; that's my salary saved up over the years! It pains me to give it all at once!"
"Got it!" Lan Baobao never thought about taking Li Xiaoran's money. Unfortunately, ever since she saw Gu Feng yesterday, this girl has been insisting on playing a trick of sending red envelopes and gifts.
As good friends for many years, they talk about everything, so Lan Baobao doesn't mind this kind of thing.
"Xiao Xiao, would it be good for us to live in the Ye Family in the future? If I become his assistant and intercept countless women's calls, what if we get married..."
"Baby, you only have a ten-year contract; it's a contractual marriage, understand? Isn't there a clause in your contract that you have to follow the rules of being a wife, but Ye Zixun doesn't have to follow the rules of being a husband? The fact that he can have you block calls for him is already quite nice. I see that his family seems to like you too, Lan Baobao. The task is tough; good luck!"
"Good luck? It's easy for you to say. Today, a man named Pan Ya came along, and he was followed by a woman named Chen Huanya. As soon as she saw Ye Zixun, she kept flirting right in front of me!"
Sensing the juicy gossip, Xiao Xiao leaned her head on Lan Baobao's shoulder and said, "That woman is so promiscuous. Aren't you going to teach her a lesson? Just let her go like that?"
"She's here for business; if the deal falls through, she'll leave. But I definitely won't forget her flirtatious behavior recently. Let's not talk about that now, Xiao Xiao. If we marry into the family for ten years, by then Mumu and Ruo Ruo will be growing up. If I divorce Ye Zixun then, what will happen to your two kids? What will I do?"
"Girl, you're already thinking about this before even getting married. Don't you think that's exhausting? As they say, the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. We'll deal with those things when the time comes. You should just think about enjoying yourself for ten years after marrying into the family and living well off their resources for life. With your figure and looks, just getting involved with the Ye Family's good fortune will shine on you. When you make an appearance later, won't you blind others with your brilliance? Just don't forget to promote me a bit so I can share in your good fortune."
Lan Baobao took a sip of beer and playfully rolled up her sleeves towards Xiao Xiao with a grin: "You want to share in my good fortune? Alright, but let me check you out first..."
"Lan Baobao, what are you doing? You look like you're up to no good... I'm warning you; I'm still an innocent young lady! If you lay your hands on me, you'll have to take responsibility... Wow, Lan Baobao! You're so heartless; it tickles! So ticklish... I was wrong! I was wrong! Lan Baobao, you little brat, let go!"
