My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Ring ring!”

As the two were wandering aimlessly, Chen Ziran’s phone rang.

She picked up her phone and saw it was her best friend, Mi Lan: ”Hello?”

Mi Lan screamed excitedly over the phone: ”Ranran, where are you? I’ve found my Prince Charming!”

”Huh?” Chen Ziran had always felt her best friend was neurotic.

Since they first met, Mi Lan had told Chen Ziran she’s looking for a hero, a superhero like Superman, and he must be good-looking.

So, many people had pursued Mi Lan over the years, but no one ever succeeded.

Chen Ziran had always said: then you’ll stay single forever.

Now, this neurotic friend suddenly called to say she had found her Prince Charming?

”Hey, I’m at Left Bank Coffee near your office, hurry over here. I want you to see my man!” After saying that, Mi Lan didn’t wait for Chen Ziran to speak and hung up excitedly.

Chen Ziran felt helpless and said to Ye Guichen: ”It’s my best friend.”

Ye Guichen naturally heard the voice over the phone and said: ”You should go. I need to start investigating the real culprit behind the factory fire and find a way to make Chen Group beg you to return.”

”Alright, I’ll be waiting for that!” Chen Ziran hardly believed him, looked around to make sure no one was nearby, and suddenly leaned toward Ye Guichen’s ear and whispered: ”I’ve already been kicked out. If you’re after my money, it’s not too late to regret now.”

Ye Guichen turned his head, and as a result, his lips brushed against Chen Ziran’s lips.

Chen Ziran was startled.

Ahhh, my first kiss.

”You... you took advantage of me!” Chen Ziran felt as if she had been electrocuted and quickly stepped back.

Ye Guichen laughed: ”Wifey, hardships are temporary. If you don’t have money, how can I accomplish my dream of being a kept man?”

”Humph, narcissist!” Chen Ziran turned and left.

Watching Chen Ziran get into a cab, Ye Guichen’s playful smile faded into a serious expression.

He took out his phone and called Blood Rose: ”Spread the word that Star Group might collaborate with Chen Group, but keep in mind, only Chen Ziran can make this happen.”

”Got it.” Blood Rose’s tone was slightly sour: ”Boss, even acquiring Chen Group is just a matter of your word, you...”

”Just do it.” Ye Guichen hung up the phone directly.

After a moment’s thought, he made another call: ”Black Panther, have someone keep an eye on Chen Longxiang. Inform me immediately if he makes any moves.”

Black Panther was thrilled to hear Ye Guichen’s voice: ”Yes, Mr. Ye, you’re finally contacting me. I’ll handle it well!”

...

Left Bank Coffee.

”Ranran, you finally arrived. Look, this is my man.” Mi Lan, dressed fashionably in a knitted top and jeans, couldn’t care less about small talk when she saw Chen Ziran. She pulled Chen Ziran to sit down and eagerly pushed her phone in front of her.

On the phone was a video playing, showing Ye Guichen riding a shared bike at high speed.

Looking at that figure, Chen Ziran felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

This person looks so much like Ye Guichen.

But on second thought, she laughed silently.

Since Ye Guichen had started rescuing people from the fire, Chen Ziran discovered that although he appeared carefree, he was passionate inside. Especially his actions in recent times, which had genuinely made her fall for him.

But, how could someone like that be riding a bike at high speed?

”Why are you showing me this video?” Chen Ziran asked worriedly, having no intention of joking with Mi Lan at this moment.

Mi Lan, not noticing anything wrong, said excitedly: ”Ranran, this is my Prince Charming! Haha, did you see? He rides faster than cars, isn’t he a hidden superhero in the city? I’m determined to find him and then find a way to sleep with him, haha...”

Thinking about it, Mi Lan laughed loudly, as if she already had the high-speed rider in her grasp.

Chen Ziran, used to her friend’s neurotic behavior, indifferently said: ”Then I wish you’ll get this man soon.”

”Of course!” Mi Lan didn’t catch the perfunctory tone in Chen Ziran’s words. She set her phone on the table, rested her chin on her hands, and stared dreamily at the man in the video, mumbling: ”So handsome, too handsome.”

Chen Ziran finally couldn’t stand it: ”Hey, you only see a back. How can you tell he’s handsome? And, who knows if this video is edited with special effects? You actually believe it?”

Mi Lan heard this and immediately became unhappy: ”Ranran, you don’t understand. I specifically asked the small streamer who recorded the video. It’s definitely real. Hmph, and don’t criticize my man. He’s certainly a super handsome guy. Once I get him, I’ll definitely bring him before you and dazzle your eyes!”

”Puh, you’re the one with dog eyes.” Chen Ziran retorted.

Mi Lan’s gossip instinct flared up. She took a sip of coffee and asked sneakily: ”By the way, have you confronted your jerk fiancé yet?”

”Oh.” Hearing Mi Lan mention Ye Guichen, Chen Ziran replied wistfully: ”I’m going to marry him.”

”Pff!” Mi Lan sprayed coffee all over Chen Ziran’s face, causing her to jump up and scream: ”What are you doing?”

”No, no, what did you just say?” Mi Lan helped wipe Chen Ziran’s face while asking.

After struggling to clean her face, Chen Ziran snorted: ”I said, I’ve fallen for that jerk.”

Mi Lan checked Chen Ziran’s forehead and muttered: ”That’s not right, it doesn’t feel like a fever. Why are you talking nonsense?”

”You’re the one talking nonsense.” Chen Ziran smacked Mi Lan’s hand: ”You don’t understand. Now, I feel grandpa’s choice back then was wise.”

”What’s going on? Hurry and tell me.” Mi Lan was completely clueless.

This was less than a week, right?

Chen Ziran, a high-minded beauty, was really conquered by a country bumpkin?

Chen Ziran sighed and didn’t hide as she explained the recent events to Mi Lan.

Mi Lan opened her eyes wide after listening: ”You mean you’ve been kicked out of Chen Group?”

Chen Ziran nodded: ”If the cause of the factory fire isn’t found to be intentional sabotage, I might not have a chance to go back.”

Although she seemed carefree, being kicked out was definitely a humiliation.

Moreover, knowing someone had tampered with it but couldn’t do anything about it.

”However, he said he could help me.” For some reason, Chen Ziran suddenly remembered Ye Guichen’s words.
