Chapter 355 - Seducing Hubby II
Jiang Ruolan entered the building door and went to the reception desk. She asked the receptionist staff whether Xian Zihao was busy right now, but no one answered her question. She suspected that the staff was trying to ignore her.
If Jiang Ruolan called Xian Zihao at this time, it was not good. She was afraid that her call would disturb him, so she just texted him and told him that she was here to give him lunch.
After that, Jiang Ruolan returned to the lounge and waited patiently. She stood outside the window and looked at the traffic outside. She was in Xian Zihao"s kingdom. When she thought about it, she felt like she was finally entering his world.
The world that belongs to Xian Zihao.
This time, she didn"t need to wait for too long. Not even three minutes after the message was sent, the staff in the lobby opened the door and entered, politely saying that Xian Zihao was having a meeting with Vice-President Wei, then leading her into the elevator. "President Xian is on the 66th floor."
Jiang Ruolan thanked the staff and went straight to the meeting room.
She stopped and asked softly at the door, "Are they have an important meeting? It won"t be good if I came in like this."
The staff politely smiled and said, "Miss Jiang, President Xian just told Vice-President Wei"s secretary to send a message saying that you are his wife. If you have something to say, you can come and find him directly."
No wonder they were polite to her. That"s because Xian Zihao has asked someone to clarify her ident.i.ty. She wondered why the several staff members in the lobby had turned from cold to attentive.
She slowly pushed open the door of the small conference room with a sigh.
Despite being called a small conference room, this conference room was comparable to the large conference room of large companies in the country.
Xian Zihao wore a light gray shirt and blue jeans. Despite wearing casual clothes, his appearance was still very eye-catching. A dozen people were present in the meeting room.
He was listening to the presented report and as soon as the meeting room door opened, he slowly raised his head and glanced towards the door, only to see Jiang Ruolan standing there awkwardly with the lunch bag she had bought.
He chuckled lightly, put down the pen he was playing with, and walked over to take the bag from her. "Mrs. Xian, you have worked hard. After getting married, you finally have time to go abroad for a vacation. I also have to trouble you to come here to bring me lunch."
Xian Zihao"s voice was accompanied by a carefree smile. He was not the same person as he was at home. He seemed to have thrown away too much of his restraints and lost his seriousness.
As he spoke, he wrapped his arm around Jiang Ruolan"s shoulder and introduced her to his subordinates sitting in the meeting room. "This is Jiang Ruolan, my wife."
"I heard that you were married more than half a year ago. At the time, Guiying said that she planned to return home to visit her new sister-in-law. I did not think that was true." Sitting across from the conference table, a handsome man in his early thirties immediately laughed, "No wonder you are shining with happiness now. From the look of your wife"s belly, she must be about to give birth soon, right?"
Jiang Ruolan"s mouth twitched. Her stomach was getting bigger and bigger, much bigger than the stomachs of other women who were four to five months old. She even suspected that she was carrying twins.
"Almost five months." She explained with a smile.
"Are they twins? President Xian, congratulations! Don"t forget to send a red packet to Xian Enterprise"s staff when the time comes!" The man continued to tease.
Xian Zihao smiled and patted Jiang Ruolan"s shoulder, "This is Vice-President Wei, who will temporarily manage the company on Guiying"s behalf until she returns."
Jiang Ruolan nodded and greeted Vice-President Wei with a smile. Then, she smiled at the others who smiled at her. After that, Xian Zihao signaled for everyone to rest for a while before taking her to his office on the 30th floor.
"Why did you suddenly come looking for me?" Xian Zihao asked softly as they entered the elevator.
"I was too bored at the hotel, so I went out for a walk. Seeing that it was noon, I wanted to take a look at Xian Enterprise, but who would have thought that you were so busy until you had no time to call your wife."
Xian Zihao laughed at Jiang Ruolan"s grumbling tone. "Your stomach is getting bigger, and if you move a lot, you will get tired quickly. That"s why I let you relax at the hotel."
When the elevator door opened, he continued to hold her hand and pulled her gently through the wide, bright corridor. All the staff looked at Jiang Ruolan with admiration and jealousy, especially the female staff members.
Jiang Ruolan could not hold back her laughter and said in a low voice. "This is your own company headquarters. I just heard some female staff members talking about you, saying that they have never seen the real face of the President in the last two years since they entered Xian Enterprise. In these two days, they practically worship you as their idol."
Xian Zihao didn"t seem to care at all. He led her into the office, personally poured a cup of hot water for her, and put it on the tea table in front of her. "I know you will be bored at the hotel. Dad will probably need two or three days to finish his business, so I took this opportunity to go back to the office and looked at the reports. Just bear with it for today, I will walk with you tomorrow, okay?"
Jiang Ruolan laughed, "I"m not a child, so I don"t need you to accompany me. Actually, I"m just curious about Xian Enterprise that you single-handedly created."
She suddenly thought of Xian Guiying. For such a large company, Xian Zihao had left it to her to manage over the past few years. On one hand, it was due to Xian Zihao"s trust and nurturing of his sister. On the other hand, Xian Guiying"s shrewdness in handling affairs might make her an elite in the market.
"This is not just a Xian Enterprise that I have single-handedly created." Xian Zihao smiled, "This is our Xian Enterprise."
Jiang Ruolan"s heart was moved. "Ours?"
"The common property of husband and wife." Xian Zihao smiled and caressed her face, "I will probably be busy until tonight. Don"t worry about me. I will eat the lunch you sent me, and I will also rush home earlier. With your big stomach right now, I"ll worry about you walking too far by yourself. I"ll accompany you for a walk tomorrow, so go back to the hotel and rest. Be obedient, hmm?"
Jiang Ruolan nodded. She didn"t want to give him a problem while he was busy, "Then you must eat your lunch. Don"t forget about your stomach."
Seeing him nod with a smile, she got up and kissed him back when he put his arms around her and kiss her. Then she walked away, smiling.

The next day.
Taking advantage of the good weather, Xian Zihao took Jiang Ruolan around Boston City. They first visited the legendary Harvard University, then went to the famous Ma.s.sachusetts Inst.i.tute of Technology, then went to the museum to see all sorts of strange scientific research items.
Afterward, Xian Zihao took her to many of Boston"s most famous beautiful areas and ate a lot of delicious food. This was the first time the two of them have traveled abroad since their marriage, even though it was for accompanying Xian Jian.
However, such a rare opportunity was enough to satisfy Jiang Ruolan. She could not stop smiling all day. From time to time, she would pat her belly and say that she had to bring her baby back for another stroll.
Jiang Ruolan happily and satisfyingly returned to the hotel with Xian Zihao. Although she had a lot of fun, her body was also a bit tired. After soaking in the bathtub alone for a long time and finally feeling completely relaxed and comfortable, she lazily climbed out.
Xian Zihao was not in the room. This hotel was one of the top-ranked hotels and the investors were friends of Xian Zihao. They knew he was staying at a hotel, so they came from Washington to meet him.
After Jiang Ruolan finished showering, she stood in front of a large mirror with a bathrobe, looking at her figure.
Was her big belly too ugly now?
They hadn"t been intimate since the last time she was in the hospital. At that time, Xian Zihao was enduring his pain and desire, but now, she was healthy, he was actually calm as if nothing had happened.
In recent days, when he returned from work, she had fallen asleep. He didn"t wake her up.
Could it be that her husband was beginning to dislike her?
If he already despised her big stomach, then what would happen in a few more years?
Jiang Ruolan took advantage of Xian Zihao"s absence and started rummaging through the boxes, looking for something that she had bought while shopping these past two days, as well as the two pajamas she had brought with her when she arrived.
She had bought a very unique style of pajamas. The light-gold silk pajamas revealed a lot of her skin. This cloth was very loose and even if she had a big stomach, as long as she wore it, she would still be very beautiful.
An hour later, Jiang Ruolan asked for two bottles of red wine from the hotel room service. Despite being pregnant, she can still drink a gla.s.s of red wine. It was good for a woman, and she didn"t have to worry about the alcohol concentration. She also borrowed a translucent red silk cloth from the room service.
The room attendant that brought the items was immediately puzzled when he saw Jiang Ruolan pointing to the wall lamp. He couldn"t help but ask, "Miss Jiang, what are you planning to do?"
