Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

"Li Zhicheng, if you continue to be such a scoundrel, I won't be polite to you anymore!" She raised her small face and glared at him angrily. He had caused her so much trouble, yet he himself seemed completely oblivious to it.

Li Zhicheng remained the same; she was all bark and no bite, but in the end, she didn't dare to do anything to him.

Shen Menghan surprised him by raising her elbow and striking him in the chest!

He only grunted softly, not showing any sign of losing his composure.

"Xiaohan, you're trying to murder your husband." He leaned close to her ear and breathed into her earlobe.

Her face instantly turned bright red, and she was still thinking of bumping into him, but he had already grabbed her hands tightly and pulled her out of the elevator with him.

Shen Menghan noticed that there were still many people standing outside. Some employees were waiting for their cars, while people from other companies on different floors, even strangers, felt so embarrassed by their intimate behavior that she wanted to disappear.

Perhaps Li Zhicheng had a change of heart and finally let go of her. She immediately walked briskly forward, and he followed suit, walking lightly. Compared to her high heels, he had a great advantage.

She got into the driver's seat, and he got into the passenger seat!

"Where's your car?" she asked coldly, not knowing how she could get rid of him.

"The driver drove it back."

"So you're deliberately trying to cling to me?" She began to clench her fists, aiming at his handsome face, ready to swing.

"I want to be your designated driver, would you grant me that honor?" His words were so sweet that it was impossible to resist!

"Shut up!" She fastened her seatbelt, stepped on the gas pedal quickly, and the car roared off, so fast that people almost crashed into the windshield.

Li Zhicheng still gazed at her with a doting expression. In his eyes, even when she was angry, she was still irresistible.

Shen Menghan maintained a stern expression throughout, not giving him any chance to speak. She needed to concentrate on driving while simultaneously managing her emotions and thinking about how to gradually fade the distance between them without violating their agreement.

Li Zhicheng leaned back in his chair, looking straight ahead with an inscrutable expression that made it impossible to fathom his thoughts.

After returning home, Shen Menghan walked out of the garage with him.

He stepped forward, took her wrist, and she shook him off. He caught up again, held her hand tightly, and said gently, "We are a loving couple."

She was about to retort when she looked up and met his gaze, which made her reluctantly give in to his wishes.

When she returned to the front of the house, she heard her grandmother's voice coming from inside. Only then did she realize that he was putting on a show for his grandmother.

Inside, Runqiong was on the phone with someone, laughing loudly. When she saw the two of them, she hurriedly hung up the phone.

Shen Menghan politely called out to her in a soft voice, "Grandma."

"Xiaohan, come here quickly! I just made a deal with someone, we're going on a trip together next week!"

Shen Menghan was taken aback and instinctively refused, saying, "Thank you, Grandma, but I have to go to work."

Runqiong immediately glared at Li Zhicheng, saying reproachfully, "What do you think of this? Do you want your beloved wife to become a workaholic?"

Li Zhicheng shrugged, indicating that he was completely innocent!

He glanced at Shen Menghan disdainfully, and seeing her constantly giving him meaningful looks, he immediately understood that she didn't want to go on the trip.

Then he said to Runqiong, "Grandma, we're both busy with a project and can't find the time. If you want to travel, find someone else to accompany you first. We'll take you to other places when we're more free later."

"I don't like anyone else but the two of you. Alas, this poor old woman has ended up like this in her old age. I want to go out and have some fun, but my grandson and granddaughter-in-law refuse. How pitiful I am." After saying this, Runqiong reached out and wiped her eyes, pretending to wipe away tears.

Shen Menghan was both amused and exasperated. She wasn't that close to her grandmother, and she was also afraid of dealing with these kinds of relationships with elders.

“Grandma, we’re just temporarily busy. Why don’t you postpone it for now, and we’ll let you know when we’re ready once we’ve finished arranging our work?” Li Zhicheng stepped forward, put his arm around the old woman’s shoulder, and gently coaxed her.

Runqiong stared at him for a long time before saying, "I can't believe your words. You're busy every day. Tell me, how many times have you promised to take me on a trip? When have you ever actually gone with me? I finally married Xiaohan, and you won't even spend time with me. Am I still your most beloved grandmother?"

"Of course you are my most beloved grandma. I promise you, I will go on a trip with you in three months. You can go wherever you want, okay?" Li Zhicheng made a bold promise. He also hoped that his relationship with Xiaohan could take a big step forward and that they could travel together with the old lady.

"Hmph, at least you still have some conscience. If you don't come with me in three months, I'll sell the Li family business and see what you do then!"

"Okay, whatever you say." Li Zhicheng smiled happily. Grandma was like a child; she needed to be coaxed. If she was happy, everything would be easier to handle.

Seeing the two turn from enemies to friends, Shen Menghan was filled with emotion. If her maternal grandmother were as easy to coax as her paternal grandmother, she and her mother wouldn't have to worry so much.

"Xiaohan, Grandma is having dinner here tonight. Are you happy to have her?" Runqiong asked her, seeing that she had been left out.

She forced a smile and said gently, "Grandma, this is your home too, you can make the decisions."

"Xiaohan is so good at charming people, I love hearing that. Zhicheng, you've married a good wife, you must cherish her!" Runqiong was overjoyed. Looking at Shen Menghan's charming face, she even started to imagine what her future great-grandchild would look like!

When Shen Menghan met Li Zhicheng's burning gaze, she quickly turned her face away and sat on the other side of the sofa, not wanting to have any interaction with him, deliberately creating distance between them.

Just as Li Zhicheng was about to speak, his phone rang inconsiderately. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Li Jun calling before answering.

"President, we just received reliable information that steel prices will skyrocket tomorrow. Do we need to stock up on more goods?" Li Jun requested. Their Li Group is involved in too many industries, and many sources of information are collected by specialists. As long as the information is reliable, the person who provided it must be rewarded. This is an opportunity to cut losses and make a profit.

"If it's trustworthy, you can decide what to do." He trusted Li Jun a lot and let him do many things, which was also a test for him.

However, Li Jun has been outstanding during the years he has been by his side. He has also received rumors that many people want to poach him, but he has always remained steadfast in staying by his side.

Although he often punished him, what others didn't know was how substantial Li Jun's bonuses were—a fact that not everyone could guess.

"Okay." Li Jun hung up the phone after getting his consent.
