The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Jiang Xiaonian never expected Xie Tingrui to say such a thing at this time. She was genuinely surprised and delighted, but she still couldn't accept it. "No way!"

Xie Tingrui thought that by humbling himself, he could regain the chance to be with Jiang Xiaonian, but she still refused to agree. He couldn't understand, "Why?"

As if she had made up her mind, Jiang Xiaonian said resolutely, "Because I don't love you anymore, and I don't want to be with you. Please let me go."

"Jiang Xiaonian, what is your heart made of? Why are you so cruel to me?" Xie Tingrui seemed heartbroken, his expression turning extremely painful.

In truth, Jiang Xiaonian herself wasn't feeling much better, but she was forced into this situation and couldn't tell Xie Tingrui, "Xie Tingrui, I really don't want to get entangled with you anymore, please let me go."

To avoid Xie Tingrui, she took Xiaobao to other hospitals for treatment, but she still ran into him. She really didn't know if this was a bad fate.

But Xiao Bao, who had never felt the warmth of a father, liked Xie Tingrui very much: "Mom, I like this uncle, can he be my dad?"

Jiang Xiaonian felt guilty knowing she couldn't give Xiaobao complete love. She really didn't want to discourage the child, but she was also afraid that Xie Tingrui would find out something, so she hardened her heart and said, "I'm sorry, Xiaobao, Uncle can't be your father. He's not from our world. Be good, listen to me, let's go."

Xiao Bao's expectant eyes instantly dimmed, making Jiang Xiaonian's heart ache.

Although it was the first time Xie Tingrui had met Xiaobao, he inexplicably took a liking to the child, even though he knew that the child was born to Jiang Xiaonian and another man.

He admitted it.

Xie Tingrui knew that Jiang Xiaonian cared most about Xiaobao, so he used that as a reason, "Jiang Xiaonian, I'm serious. Even if you don't care about yourself, you should care about Xiaobao. He's still so young, and he's called a wild child by other kids every day. Do you think he doesn't have psychological trauma?"

Jiang Xiaonian sighed deeply. How could she not know how terrible a child's childhood without a father's company could be? It's just that many things can't be solved with just a few words.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have resolutely left Xie Tingrui to go abroad.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaonian hesitated, Xie Tingrui immediately squatted down, took Xiaobao's soft little hand, and asked, "Xiaobao, do you like Uncle very much and want to be with Uncle?"

Xiao Bao looked up at his mother, then at the gentle man in front of him, and nodded obediently. "Yes, I like Uncle, and I want to be with Uncle."

Xie Tingrui was overjoyed and immediately reached out to hug Xiaobao back into his arms. "Good boy, come on, Uncle will take you to get some ice cream."

By the time Jiang Xiaonian thought of coming, it was already too late.

Seeing Xiao Bao laughing so happily in Xie Tingrui's arms, she really couldn't bear to hurt him any further, so she could only take it one step at a time. If all else failed, she would find a department to help her leave with Xiao Bao.

When Xie Tingrui took Xiaobao to buy ice cream, he also instructed the others to take care of Elsa's needs.

He felt that he had done enough to help her as a friend.

In the dessert shop, Xie Tingrui felt happy seeing Xiaobao enjoying his food.

Just as he was thinking about taking Xiaobao to buy toys later, his cell phone rang in his pocket.

He glanced at the incoming call; it was from Li Zhanting. He answered, "Hey, what's up, Lao Li?"

"How is Elsa doing now?" Li Zhanting made this call to ask only so that Shen Yanran wouldn't feel burdened.

Xie Tingrui answered truthfully, "She is awake now, but her emotions are not very stable. However, I have someone watching her."

Li Zhanting nodded on the other end of the phone, "That's good. How's the psychologist I asked you to find for me?"

Xie Tingrui had actually already contacted someone, but Elsa suddenly committed suicide, and he ran into Jiang Xiaonian and Xiao Bao. Everything happened at once, and he forgot for a moment. "I've already found someone for you, but he's not in the city and can only come to the hospital to help you tomorrow."

Li Zhanting thanked him in a low voice, "Okay, I understand, thank you."

"Alright, don't be so polite with me. I have something to do, so I'll have to talk to you later." Xie Tingrui kept a close eye on Xiaobao, afraid that Jiang Xiaonian would take Xiaobao away if he wasn't careful.

The moment the call ended, Shen Yanran asked anxiously, "How is Elsa...? Is she alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine now, so don't worry. I've also contacted someone to hypnotize me, and it can be done tomorrow." Li Zhanting was more concerned about regaining his memories.

Hearing that Elsa was alright, Shen Yanran felt much less pressure.

Just then, her phone rang. It was Zhao Qingying from China calling.

Shen Yanran thought it might be something that needed to be done at the company, so she quickly answered the phone, "Hello, President Zhao."

"Hmm, Yanran, have you finished dealing with your matters? When do you plan to return to work?"

Although Li Zhanting had arranged for hypnosis tomorrow, she didn't know if it would be effective. Besides, she didn't want to leave his side at this time, so she could only apologize to Zhao Qingying and say, "I'm sorry, President Zhao, my business here is not finished yet, and I may not be able to go back for a while."

Zhao Qingying said with some difficulty, "I see. Actually, I don't want to rush you, but there are only half a month left until Qixi Festival, which is a crucial time for our jewelry industry to sell well. Your works have always been very popular, so I want to strike while the iron is hot and create new works for exhibition and sale."

Shen Yanran knew her responsibilities and couldn't cause any negative impact on others. "I'm sorry, President Zhao, I really can't get away from this. How about this, give me a week, and I'll design a set of works that fit the Qixi Festival theme for you, and then you can start production?"

Shen Yanran has extremely high design talent and ability. Her works almost always sell out as soon as they are put on the market, which is why Zhao Qingying is so eager for Shen Yanran to return to China to work.

But it seemed like she really couldn't come back, and the company couldn't do without her, so they had no choice but to use the method she suggested.

Zhao Qingying sighed softly, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Yanran. I know you're pregnant and it's inconvenient for you, but I hope you can understand my difficulties. After all, hundreds of people in the company depend on me for support."

Shen Yanran nodded in understanding. "Yes, President Zhao, I understand. I wouldn't have achieved what I have today without your help. You can leave the design to me, don't worry."

Seeing that Shen Yanran looked troubled after hanging up the phone, Li Zhanting asked with concern, "Whose call was that? Did something happen?"

Shen Yanran felt there was nothing to hide, so she told the truth directly, "My boss asked me when I could go back to work because Qixi Festival is coming soon, and the company wants to launch new jewelry designs."

Li Zhanting learned from Xu Fan's report that Shen Yanran was an outstanding jewelry designer, but he did not expect that she was still working while pregnant.

This is something he can't understand at all in his current memory: "You're pregnant, and you still have to go to work?"

Shen Yanran looked at Li Zhanting in surprise, "I'm pregnant, why can't I go to work?"

Li Zhanting asked with great concern, "What if something happens to you while you're working?"

Shen Yanran was both amused and exasperated. "I'm just an ordinary jewelry designer. My job involves sitting in front of a computer and doing designs. It's not a dangerous job. What kind of accident could happen? Don't make a fuss about it. Besides, we've already reached an agreement, and you support me."

"Are you sure? Don't lie to me just because I have amnesia and don't remember." Li Zhanting never imagined that he would be so easy to talk to, allowing his wife to work while pregnant.

Shen Yanran glanced at him indifferently, "I'm not that bored."

Although Li Zhanting was still reluctant for Shen Yanran to continue working, fortunately she was in the United States, by his side, so he could supervise her work to make it less strenuous.

He immediately told Shen Yanran, "Alright then, I'll trust you for now, but you can't work too hard or stay up late."

In the past, when Li Zhanting was busy with work, he didn't care about anything else. He would not only stay up late, but sometimes he would not even eat. How could he have the nerve to restrain her?

However, in order to complete the work assigned by her boss, she had no choice but to agree, "Okay, I promise you."

Shen Yanran didn't want to waste any more time and wanted to get right to work, but unfortunately she didn't have any tools at hand, not even a simple pen and paper.

I don't know if any of the nearby stores have them.

Shen Yanran stood up from the sofa and said, "I'm going out to buy something, I'll be back in a bit."

"No, tell me what you want to buy, and I'll have Arui buy it and bring it to you." Li Zhanting didn't want Shen Yanran out of his sight.

After all, there was another man outside who was eyeing his wife covetously.

"Don't bother him, I can manage on my own, it's just what I need for drawing."

Li Zhanting was a man of action, and immediately picked up his phone to call Xie Tingrui, "Tingrui, help me prepare everything the designer needs and send it to the hospital."

Xie Tingrui was having a great time playing with Xiaobao when he suddenly received a call from Li Zhanting asking him to buy something. His mood immediately plummeted. "Big brother, I'm not your assistant, okay? How come I'm in charge of all the shopping too?"

Li Zhanting replied matter-of-factly, "I don't trust anyone else. My wife needs to work, so hurry up."

And without giving Xie Tingrui a chance to refuse, he hung up the phone.

Xie Tingrui stared blankly at his phone for a few seconds, then smiled helplessly.

Well, who can blame us if Li Zhanting is sick and injured right now? If he doesn't go, who will?

Jiang Xiaonian thought Xie Tingrui had something to do and wanted to take Xiaobao home immediately. "You have something to do, right? Then I'll take Xiaobao home first."

Xie Tingrui didn't want to give Jiang Xiaonian any more chances to leave his side. "It's nothing serious. You come with me, and we can buy some gifts for Xiaobao while we're at it."
