My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 354 - Seducing Hubby I

Chapter 354 - Seducing Hubby I


Xian Zihao answered the call. His expression changed from being calm to slightly frown. After a moment, he put down the phone and turned to look at Jiang Ruolan.


"What"s wrong?" Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Ruolan"s heart skipped a beat.


"Your DNA has already been taken by Senior Zhou." His eyes were bright and calm, and his lips had a hint of a smile that was not a smile. "He"s actually faster than us."


Jiang Ruolan"s face darkened. "It looks like he really did come prepared this time."


Suddenly, her voice stopped as the door to the ward was pushed open. As Zhou Shufen entered, she looked towards Jiang Ruolan with an unusual look, as if she couldn"t believe what she was seeing.


Seeing Xian Zihao was here, Zhou Shufen immediately calmed her expression. She looked at Jiang Ruolan hesitantly a few times before softly asking Xian Zihao. "Zihao, shouldn"t the Xian Group be very busy at the beginning of the year? Now you have put down your work to accompany her. She doesn"t seem to have suffered any serious injuries, so letting you always accompany her here is like making a big fuss out of nothing."


Zhou Shufen didn"t have much of a temper when she spoke to Xian Zihao, but today, she had her daughter along with her. The look in her eyes had a hint of chilliness to it.


Just as Jiang Ruolan was about to say something, her hands felt warm. Xian Zihao gently held her hand, then turned to look at Zhou Shufen. "I just listened to the reports at the branch office and stopped by to see Ruolan before returning to Xian Group. Of course, she won"t hold up my work, even if I want to stay here with her, she still wouldn"t agree."


His att.i.tude of defending Jiang Ruolan had made Zhou Shufen"s expression turn cold, and a hint of pain appeared in her eyes. She turned around and walked over to Xiaoyi, no longer looking at them. She then casually said, "It seems that you and your wife really love each other dearly. Then, I wish you and your wife a hundred years of harmony!"


Zhou Shufen emphasized the last four words. She bent over at the same time and carried Xiaoyi, who was bored to death, then left the ward.


Looking at Zhou Shufen"s proud and stubborn back, Jiang Ruolan was not sure if she knew about the relationship between her (Jiang Ruolan) and Zhou Family or not.


"Actually, isn"t it very cruel of us to do this to her?" Jiang Ruolan muttered to herself.


Xian Zihao sighed softly and held her hand tightly, "Everything that she has been through since she was young was too smooth and superior, and she rarely encountered any setbacks."


"At least she loves you." Jiang Ruolan looked at his handsome face.


"Aish, what should I do? With Cui Liuxian at home and Zhou Shufen outside, I feel that my happiness was tested. Everywhere I go, I walk on thin ice. I always have to be careful with what I have to do because I am not ready to let you go."


Xian Zihao smiled and pulled her into his arms. "Then don"t let go."


After that, he said softly, "That"s not love, but possessiveness. Loving someone is not like this. Loving someone means you will try everything to make your partner happy. Whether it goes up or down, or warm and steady, you will always want to give your partner the best. Not treating them like a possession."


Jiang Ruolan put her arms around him and her bulging stomach pressing against his. She then blurted out her thoughts without thinking, "Do you love me, Zihao?"


A low laugh came from above her head. Jiang Ruolan raised her head from his embrace, as if she had just realized how foolish her question was. Immediately, she wanted to shove him away in embarra.s.sment. "What I mean is …"


Without waiting for her to finish, Xian Zihao hugged her again, kissed her hair, and said softly, "What do you think, wifey?"


Xian Zihao didn"t even need to say those three words before her entire body softened in his embrace and her face curved into a smile.

After a week --


As Jiang Ruolan stepped out of the plane, her face was ashen. She felt the air around her spin and her head immediately became dizzy. Jiang Ruolan wanted to vomit, but she endured it. The feeling of being pregnant and being airsick was finally suppressed.


Seeing her expression turn so ugly, Xian Zihao laughed and said, "Before the plane took off, you were so brave. You said that your symptoms had improved a lot, so I didn"t have to take any measures to prevent you from fainting. Now you telling me you"re suffering?"


Jiang Ruolan stood in the airport with her hands on her waist, staring at him with an ashen face.


At the same time, Xian Zihao put his arm around her shoulder. Although he was worried, he slowly tried to comfort her. "Dad"s plane will probably only arrive tonight."


He walked her out of the airport and said softly, "First, find a hotel to rest. I don"t want you, the expectant mother, to say that I mistreated women and unborn children."


Jiang Ruolan"s eyelids twitched violently. "I am still a beautiful girl who loves to flirt with people. Even though I"m pregnant now, will you believe if I stood here on the streets, there would still be men with golden hair and blue eyes starting conversations with me?"


The corner of Xian Zihao"s eyes trembled a little. He did not answer her question and just hugged her shoulder tightly. Without giving any blonde young men a chance to talk to her, he took her straight to a hotel near the airport.


Xian Jian had some urgent matters to take care of before boarding the plane, so he decided to change to the next plane. Xian Jian"s plane would probably arrive late at night.


Xian Zihao"s p.r.o.nunciation in American English was very common. Although Jiang Ruolan"s English was not bad, she was not used to American English. When she spoke, there was still a Chinese accent in her words.


Xian Zihao was dressed casually and didn"t wear a suit. As soon as he stepped into the hotel, his elegant demeanor attracted everyone"s attention. He walked into the elevator with Jiang Ruolan, whose face was ashen due to her sickness.

Two days later...


After a stroll in New York City, they headed straight for Boston.


Since Xian Jian still had to manage some things this time, he could not immediately visit Jiang Yijun"s mother. Since Jiang Ruolan was more than four months pregnant, Xian Zihao wanted her to relax more at the hotel, take a walk in the nearby park whenever she was bored in order to wait for Xian Jian to finish his business before all of them going to the nursing home in the outskirts of Boston.


Although Jiang Ruolan was too lazy to walk around with her big belly, to her, this was the place where Xian Zihao had lived before, so she was pretty excited and couldn"t sit still.


Xian Zihao, on the other hand, was not very busy, and recently, he had only taken the time to go to Xian Enterprise to check on the company"s situation.


Jiang Ruolan woke up in the morning and strolled in the park near the hotel. In these few months, she felt herself eating and sleeping like a pig. Although she wasn"t willing to leave her career, she had fantasized about living like this a few years ago. She still planned to continue working after the birth of this child.


The weather today wasn"t bad. After walking for an hour in the park, she decided to take a taxi and go shopping. When it was almost noon, she thought about how Xian Zihao was doing at Xian Enterprise. She was afraid that he wouldn"t be able to eat lunch, so she bought some lunches and asked the pedestrians on the street the directions to the Xian Enterprise.


Someone told her that she could get there by subway, so she thanked him and immediately went to the subway station.


Xian Enterprise was not far from the city centre.


Jiang Ruolan did not know much about Xian Enterprise. All she knew was that it was one of the top 500 listed Chinese enterprises globally, and it was even stronger than the Xian Group.


Although she was in the business Reporting Department, she had always been involved in domestic news. She had never studied these foreign Chinese enterprises before, so when she arrived at Xian Enterprise and saw the 80 + story tall building in front of her, she was still thinking about which floor he was on.


When Jiang Ruolan walked into the hall and asked the receptionist, she realized that the entire building was actually owned by Xian Enterprise.


Xian Zihao"s reputation in the business world was not to be looked down. At such a young age, he had already gained a whole new level of respect from others. Jiang Ruolan never thought that the Xian Enterprise would be on such a grand scale.


The headquarters was located in Boston and there were also many Xian Enterprise investment companies around the country. After eleven years, the results were indeed quite good.
