Chapter 010

Just as she said she would throw someone into the sea to feed sharks, she definitely would.

The shop clerks were trembling with fear.

Huatian Plaza belonged to Luo Corporation, and the woman in front of them was no other than the head of Luo Corporation.

The young man earlier, was he somehow connected to President Luo?

I hope we didn't offend him.

Luo Yao's gaze fell on Lin Ran's hand.

"Buying it for Liu Ruxue?"

Lin Ran immediately clarified.

"No, it's not for Liu Ruxue. It's a gift for you!"

"Sorry, my means are limited. This is a bracelet I bought with all my money. If I'm lying, my whole family will die!" Lin Ran quickly unwrapped the package.

Indeed, Luo Yao's murderous aura disappeared instantly as she looked down at the exquisite bracelet, seeing it as the most beautiful artwork in the world.

Did Ran mean he spent all his assets to choose this gift for me?

She slowly extended her hand: "Put it on for me."

Lin Ran complied without hesitation, carefully sliding the not-so-expensive bracelet onto her delicate wrist. Luo Yao was very pleased.

"Transfer the ownership of this plaza to Lin Ran."

Liu Meng's eyes widened in shock, but she quickly composed herself: "Understood, President Luo!"

Lin Ran wasn't particularly keen on accepting it, but he didn't protest, knowing that Luo Yao's gifts were not something he could refuse. Otherwise, he would only face severe consequences.

The countless assets in the walk-in closet had already proven this point.

"It's beautiful, and I love it!"

To be honest, seeing Liu Ruxue with Lin Ran earlier almost triggered her fury.

Lin Ran didn't expect that a few words and a small gift would calm Luo Yao down so easily, making her behave like a little girl.

If others found out about this, they would be utterly shocked.

The ruthless and decisive Luo Yao acting like a little girl? That's absurd!

"Kiss me, Lin Ran."

Lin Ran stiffened, glancing around.

Huh? Where's everyone? Uncle Fu? The bodyguards? The assistants? The shop clerks?

Lin Ran naturally bent down and kissed her. Luo Yao wrapped her arms tightly around Lin Ran.

Ran, why? Why did you lie to me?

Let me enjoy this moment. If you leave me in the future, I'll go insane.

After a long time, Luo Yao's gaze became slightly dazed.

"Lin Ran, I want –"

Lin Ran was startled: "Here? Let's go home, okay?"

Luo Yao nodded.

They arrived at the parking lot, where Luo Yao pulled Lin Ran into the custom-made Maybach. As for Lin Ran's car, someone else would handle it.

With the vehicle starting up, the convoy exited the parking lot.

Even amidst heavy traffic, other vehicles still made way for the Maybach and the Koenigsegg.

A private car driver sneered: "What's so great about fancy cars? Our car for less than a hundred thousand is more stable!"

His wife gave a knowing smile: "Maybe the people inside are... communicating?"

The driver: "Wow, how did you know, wife?"

The woman: "Because I… often read Web novels on Tomato!"

The driver: "My wife is so knowledgeable!"

The cars entered the estate, where the driver and Liu Meng tactfully got out, not wanting to disturb the couple. No one wanted to risk their life by intruding.

The car's occupants hadn't come out yet.

"Lin Ran, call me."

"Luo Yao."

"Not that!"

"...Wife!"

"Again!"

"Baby?"

Luo Yao loved Lin Ran at this moment. His adorableness made her heart flutter.

The car was filled with romance.

Luo Yao gazed at Lin Ran intensely.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why did you suddenly treat me so well?"

"Because I love you!"

Luo Yao didn't believe it, but she didn't want to endlessly question, fearing that she might discover a reason so heartbreaking that it would crush her.

If Lin Ran left her, she would truly go mad and perhaps die.

"How many gifts have you given to Liu Ruxue?"

Lin Ran shuddered, unable to comprehend how Luo Yao's thoughts jumped so quickly.

A tricky question?

"I've given gifts to many people in my life. Friends, close buddies, classmates—but the only one I truly wanted to give to my lover is you."

This answer was acceptable in Luo Yao's eyes.

"Remember, you can only give gifts to one woman from now on."

Lin Ran: "Yes, ma'am!"

When the two got out of the car, Uncle Fu promptly had the servants prepare dinner.

Lin Ran happily spooned and fed Luo Yao, enjoying the task, before he started his own meal.

Late at night, after the exhausting work, Lin Ran fell asleep, while Luo Yao clung to him, wanting to merge him into herself.

Is it because of her body that he chose to stay?

If that's the case, that would be perfect!

For a long time, Luo Yao shook her head.

Could it be that she had people watching him, and everything that happened during the day was just his act?

He cut ties with the Lin family and distanced himself from Liu Ruxue. Was all of it to protect them?

Because he knew she might use them as leverage to force him to stay by her side?

No… Lin Ran, you can't do this to me.

The more she thought, the more terrified she became, and cold sweat broke out on her body. She quietly left the room, glancing back at Lin Ran before heading towards the secret chamber.

Sometime later, in a daze, Lin Ran seemed to see a stunningly beautiful woman applying something.

In the morning, Lin Ran came downstairs and saw Uncle Fu, slightly embarrassed: "Uncle Fu, the replenishing soup—"

Uncle Fu gave a smile that suggested he understood: "It's all prepared for the young master!"

Lin Ran felt a bit awkward, as if he were admitting his inadequacy. It's not that he couldn't perform, it's just that President Luo's demands were excessive, okay!

Though he also enjoyed it, continuing like this could be dangerous.

Entering the dining room, he found Luo Yao already there.

"Don't you have work today?"

Luo Yao nodded: "It's the weekend. Urgent matters can be handled from home."

For some reason, Lin Ran felt Luo Yao seemed a bit off.

Feeding the little devil had become Lin Ran's routine, and each time he felt a deep satisfaction.

Seeing his wife eat so elegantly.

Seeing her drink soup, so beautiful and alluring.

Her gaze when looking at him was utterly captivating.

She was perfect in every way.

The weekends were wonderful and heartwarming, and Lin Ran was thoroughly enjoying himself, until the second evening.

Luo Yao: "Do you want to drink?"

Lin Ran: "…? Huh?"

"...Sure!"

If his wife wanted to drink, he would accompany her, even at the risk of embarrassment due to his poor drinking skills.

Luo Yao got up and took a bottle from the liquor cabinet – Moutai?

Wait, she's drinking baijiu?

Oh well, as long as she's happy.

On her way back to the table, Luo Yao felt a sharp pain in her leg, stumbled, and the Moutai slipped from her hand.

Lin Ran reacted quickly, spinning 360 degrees, one hand supporting Luo Yao's waist, the other catching the falling bottle of Moutai.

"Careful, silly girl!"
