The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

"Of course not. Zhan'er isn't stupid. How could he possibly try to fool us with something that would be exposed as soon as it's investigated? Besides, look at this girl. She's clearly a decent girl from a respectable family. She wouldn't fool around with your grandson." Sun Mingyan has lived a long life and seen countless people. She could tell at a glance that the photos of the two of them weren't fake and that there was genuine affection between them.

Li Shengtian naturally believed Sun Mingyan's words, but he still couldn't help but complain, "Judging from the time on this, it was just a few days ago. This brat actually hid it so well. He didn't say anything earlier and even made Old Chen's granddaughter so heartbroken."

Sun Mingyan didn't think Li Zhanting had done anything wrong. Instead, she felt it was all Li Shengtian's fault. "It's all your fault. You keep forcing Zhan'er to go on blind dates, which annoys him. He didn't even tell us about such an important event as his marriage. Luckily, our grandson is filial and didn't want us to worry, so he told us the truth."

After being scolded by his wife, Li Shengtian felt a little uncomfortable and said, "I was only doing it for his own good. Otherwise, what kind of talk is it to get married at thirty!"

"Alright, why bother with all that useless talk? Zhan'er's already married, we should be happy for him." Sun Mingyan looked at the marriage certificate on her phone again and again, she couldn't be happier.

"Yes, yes, yes, such a joyous occasion should be celebrated. I'll call my son and daughter-in-law right now to tell them the good news and let them share in the joy." After saying that, Li Shengtian eagerly picked up another cell phone from the table.

Sun Mingyan stopped her, saying, "Wait a minute. Even if you call, don't you check the time? It's already late at night in America. They've already gone to sleep. And there's no rush. We can talk about it when they and Yan'er finish their rehabilitation training and return to China."

Li Shengtian thought about it and agreed; he had been too impatient. "Alright, let's wait until they get back. But could we meet our granddaughter-in-law first?"

Looking at the photos but not seeing the real person made Li Shengtian feel uneasy.

Sun Mingyan and Li Shengtian had the same idea. Now that they had already registered their marriage, they should bring him home to meet their families. "Yes, that's what I was thinking too. I'll call Zhan'er now and ask what he thinks."

Li Zhanting thought that telling his grandparents about the wedding would put their minds at ease for a while, but he didn't expect them to call again so soon.

"You brat, you're only bringing up something as important as getting married now? Don't you think you're putting me and your grandma at ease?" Li Shengtian asked sternly over the phone.

"Of course not." Li Zhanting might disregard everyone else, but he wouldn't dare disregard his grandparents, since he grew up with them.

He cares more about his parents than about his relationship with them.

"If you know it's not her, then why don't you hurry up and bring your granddaughter-in-law to us so we can see her?" Li Shengtian quickly voiced his thoughts.

Li Zhanting nodded. "Okay, I understand. I'll make the arrangements."

Li Shengtian thought that waiting for him to make arrangements would take forever, so it would be better for him to set a time himself. "We know you're busy with your company, so we won't rush you. How about this Sunday? Bring him back to the old house and have dinner with us."

Today is already Thursday, and there are exactly two days left until Sunday.

This old man really knows how to set a time.

Of course, Li Zhanting didn't argue. "Okay, no problem. I'll definitely bring her home to see you two when the time comes."

He put down his phone, glanced at the time on his watch, and figured it was about time to pick up Shen Yanran. He quickly reviewed the documents on the table, signed them, and then got up and left the office.

Xu Fan also packed all her things and followed closely behind.

At the elevator entrance, Li Zhanting glanced back at Xu Fan and said casually, "You don't need to take me home later. Just go home and spend time with your girlfriend."

Xu Fan had been by Li Zhanting's side for many years, and this was the first time she had heard him say such a thing. She was a little at a loss for words. "It's okay, President. I'm not in a hurry to go back."

Before he got married, Li Zhan didn't think it mattered whether he got off work early or late, but now it's different. Although he's physically here, his heart has flown to Shen Yanran's side. He also thinks of his secretary who has been by his side for many years, who also has someone who loves him waiting for him at home. "If you're not in a hurry, your girlfriend should be. Go home early."

Xu Fan and his girlfriend had been together for five years, and he had long been used to this life of leaving early and returning late. After all, Li Zhanting paid him a good salary, and he was willing to work overtime.

Sometimes, however, he still felt sorry for his girlfriend waiting for him, so he decided to follow the CEO's orders and go home with him early.

Li Zhanting also chose the fastest Ferrari Silver Ghost from among the many luxury cars in the underground parking garage and sped away.

At the same time, he dialed Shen Yanran's cell phone from inside the car, "Where are you? I'll come pick you up."

Shen Yanran was somewhat surprised that Li Zhanting would come to pick her up in person. "I'm at Xinrui Department Store."

"Okay, I'll be there in five minutes. Wait for me," Li Zhanting said in a gentle yet steady voice.

Shen Yanran tightened her grip on her phone, remembering that he had said he would take her to a mysterious place that morning, and replied with a hint of anticipation, "Mm."

Wenqian, who was coming out of the restroom, happened to see this scene, so she asked with a smile, "You look like you're on the phone with your Mr. Li, smiling so sweetly."

Shen Yanran put away her phone and readily admitted, "Yes, he said he'd pick me up in a bit."

"I really envy you because you have someone to pick you up. I'm so pitiful; I have to drive home all by myself," Wenqian said, feigning pitifulness.

"Then you should find a boyfriend soon. I remember you said last time that your aunt introduced you to several blind dates, but you didn't like any of them?" Although Shen Yanran had never been on blind dates, she thought that Wenqian's mother would never harm her own daughter, and the men she introduced should be suitable for her. Surely one of them would be successful.

Wenqian's head started to ache at the mention of blind dates, and she quickly waved her hand, saying, "No, please don't mention blind dates. I don't know what's wrong with my mom. Ever since she joined some college classmates' WeChat group, my nightmare has begun. What kind of weird men are they? One of them even came up to me and asked if I was a virgin!"

Wenqian had endless complaints about those so-called blind date partners, and she could talk about them until dark. "That's why blind dates are unreliable. You must find love on your own. Look at those young couples over there, how loving they are."

Shen Yanran looked in the direction Wen Qian was pointing and saw a couple who looked like college students. The boy was tall and handsome, and the girl was petite and cute.

It was unclear what the two were saying, but the girl not only asked the boy to help her carry her bag, but also put the cartoon hair tie from her hand onto the boy's hand.

The tall boy not only didn't refuse, but seemed quite happy to accept it, which made Shen Yanran a little puzzled. "Why did that girl put the hair tie on the boy's wrist? His hair is so short, why doesn't he need to tie it?"

Wen Qian looked at Shen Yanran as if she were from ancient times and explained, "No way, you don't know this? That's the most popular way for couples to show affection these days. The reason girls do that is to tell those women who have designs on other people's boyfriends that they all have their own little princes, and the others can get lost."

Is this how college students date nowadays?

Shen Yanran realized that she was truly ignorant.

Just then, her phone buzzed a few times in her pocket. She took it out and saw that it was a text message saying that Li Zhanting had arrived.

Wen Qian naturally noticed this as well, and tactfully said, "Alright, your Mr. Li is here to pick you up, so I won't go out with him. I'll be going now."

Shen Yanran nodded. "Okay, drive carefully and text me when you get home."

After waving goodbye to Wen Qian, Shen Yanran turned and walked towards the mall entrance.

As soon as she stepped outside, she saw Li Zhanting appear in front of her in an extremely cool and stylish Ferrari.

The man stepped out of the car with his long, slender legs, then walked around to the other side and personally opened the car door for Shen Yanran, saying, "Get in, my dear wife."

Because Li Zhanting's car was so good-looking, it attracted the attention of many people around him.

Shen Yanran didn't want to be surrounded like a celebrity, so she quickly got into the car.

Li Zhanting got back into the car and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight with Shen Yanran.

"Why did you come to pick me up so early? It doesn't seem like it's time to get off work yet, does it?" Shen Yanran asked curiously as she looked at the time display in the car.

"It's not time to leave work yet, so I skipped work. What, does the president's wife want to report me?" Li Zhanting glanced at the woman beside him with a deep look and smiled calmly.

The CEO's wife?

This title is certainly impressive and prestigious, but unfortunately, even though she holds the position, she doesn't fulfill her duties...

A faint smile appeared on Shen Yanran's beautiful and elegant face as she said, "How can the president's wife compare to the president himself? The entire Shengtian International belongs to your family, I wouldn't dare."

"You're smart," Li Zhanting said, holding the steering wheel with one hand and taking Shen Yanran's slender, soft hand in the other. He asked in a low voice, "Are you hungry now? If not, I'll take you somewhere else first."

Shen Yanran originally wanted to ask what place it was, but then she remembered that he hadn't told her this morning, so asking now would be pointless. She nodded and said, "Okay."

A gentle smile curved Li Zhanting's handsome face as he gripped Shen Yanran's hand tighter and said, "Don't worry, I won't sell you."

Shen Yanran was slightly taken aback, then smiled helplessly, "I'm worthless."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhanting slammed on the brakes, pulled the car over to the side, and suddenly turned his head. A sharp glint flashed in his deep, dark eyes, and his innate aura of dominance suddenly emanated from him. "Anyone who dares to say my wife is worthless, I'll bury them in money!"
