Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2097 - 2086: An Unexpected Encounter

Looking at the two women in front of her, Lan Kexin was startled; she had already recognized who they were.One was named Xu Xiaoqing, and the other, the blonde girl, was Vivian.

Both of them were company employees, and she was the one who handled their entry paperwork.

"How could they be here? Sister? Xu Xiaoqing?"

Thinking of this, Lan Kexin seemed to understand.

"Miss Lan, I believe you have met. This is my sister, Xu Xiaoqing."

Xu Ruolan added, "She's currently interning at the company, and no one knows her identity."

"So that's it."

Lan Kexin smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Xu."

"No need to be so formal, just call me Xiaoqing."

With that, Xu Xiaoqing shyly said, "Miss Lan, don't worry about the past."

"What past?"

Xu Xiaoqing tugged Vivian, awkwardly saying, "About the matter when little four joined the company."

Ever since she knew about Ning Fan and Lan Kexin, Xu Xiaoqing hadn't been at ease, but due to her elder sister's instructions, she didn't dare act out.

She had taken the opportunity to cause quite a bit of trouble for Lan Kexin under the guise of helping Vivian join the company, all of which were unreasonable nuisances.

Yet each time, Lan Kexin patiently explained without getting annoyed.

Over time, even Xu Xiaoqing started to feel embarrassed.

"It's nothing, that's what I should do."

Lan Kexin really didn't mind; it was her job, after all.

"Miss Lan, welcome to our home."

"Thank you."

At this moment, Su Meiniang said with a smile like a blooming flower, "Sister, shall we go?"

"Sister?"

This made Lan Kexin even more confused, to the point she didn't know how to respond.

In her daze, she was already being taken by Su Meiniang's arm, heading toward the villa in front.

Lan Kexin looked around unnaturally, only to see Xu Xiaoqing watching her, with an expression that seemed somewhat intriguing.

"Sister, I really want to see brother-in-law's reaction next."

"Say less."

Xu Ruolan reprimanded lightly, then smiled at Lan Kexin, "My sister likes to joke around; don't mind it."

"No, not at all."

Lan Kexin habitually responded politely but didn't understand what Xu Xiaoqing's joke had to do with her, not even Xu Ruolan's explanation made sense.

"Miss Lan, there's no need to be afraid. Actually, both my eldest and second sisters are very nice people."

Lan Kexin was even more perplexed; she didn't understand what Su Meiniang meant by this.

From what she could guess, the eldest and second sisters must refer to Xu Ruolan and her sister.

"But why would I be afraid of them?"

Lan Kexin looked around in confusion.

After getting out of the car, Xu Ruolan didn't speak much, only wearing a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiaoqing continued looking at her with that bizarre gaze, making her wonder if there was anything inappropriate about her attire today.

As for the blonde girl, she seemed indifferent to everything, just focusing on her bracelet and occasionally letting out a clear laugh.

And the lovely Su Secretary remained intimately linked on her arm, as if they were long-lost friends.

What puzzled her was, Lan Kexin had only met her a handful of times; today was just the third meeting.

With her mind full of questions, Lan Kexin followed Xu Ruolan into the villa courtyard.

As she opened the door, Xu Ruolan smiled at Lan Kexin, then said, "Husband, we're back."

"You're finally back."

The voice came before the person did. Hearing that familiar sound, Lan Kexin shuddered, then instinctively shook her head.

"How could he possibly be here, I must be overthinking."

"Pfft..."

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoqing couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing the sound, Lan Kexin noticed that Xu Ruolan and the others were looking at her with smiles, making her even more flustered, awkwardly adjusting her collar and saying, "Miss Xu, have I done something inappropriate?"

"No. Let's go inside."

Entering the living room, looking at the back figure in front, Lan Kexin froze as if turned to stone, her attention fixated solely on that figure, not even noticing when Xu Ruolan and the others left.

Looking at the few who walked past, Ning Fan smiled, "What's today, for all of you to come back together?"

"Today..."

Xu Xiaoqing glanced back, drawing out her words, "Today's your big day."

"What big day could it be for me?"

Ning Fan shook his head and then asked, "Didn't they say there was another guest? Haven't they arrived yet?"

Xu Xiaoqing held back a laugh, "Already here. Right behind you."

"Behind me?"

At this moment, an all-too-familiar voice reached Ning Fan's ears.

"Ning Fan, is that you?"

"This... Lan Kexin."

Ning Fan's expression froze, mechanically turning his head to look back, and who else could he see but Lan Kexin.

"Kexin!"

Ning Fan's eyes widened, fixated forward.

"It's really you!"

Seeing the person she longed for day and night, Lan Kexin's tears were like a burst dam, flooding out continuously.

She was naive, but not foolish.

The impromptu conversation today, the sudden family dinner invitation, and the peculiar dialog along the way, all pointed to one thing.

The man she liked was actually the husband Xu Ruolan secretly married.

Recalling the earlier conversation, Lan Kexin felt so embarrassed she could've sunk into the ground, desperately wanting to leave.

"Kexin, you..."

Fortunately, Ning Fan stopped himself in time from saying, "What are you doing here?"

Ning Fan had never thought that Xu Ruolan would bring Lan Kexin home, and as he pondered its meaning, he saw Lan Kexin hurriedly escaping.

"What have I done to deserve this?"

Ning Fan was stuck, unable to chase after her, standing still with a face of despair.

"What are you standing there for?"

Xu Ruolan's words sounded like Heavenly Sound to Ning Fan, his face showing a hint of delight as he chased after her like the wind.

"Little Four, listen closely, what are they saying?"

Xu Xiaoqing asked excitedly, "Is it like one of those overdramatic dramas?"

"Xiaoqing, don't mess around. That's private."

"Sis, you're just pretending; you must be curious."

"No way!"

Xu Ruolan's face flushed awkwardly as her thoughts were exposed.

Just when the women were expecting an epic dramatic scene, they were disappointed.

It took barely two to three minutes for Ning Fan to return with Lan Kexin,

there was no long drawn-out lovey-dovey exchange, nor any overly emotional dialogues.

Lan Kexin simply couldn't say no to Ning Fan, his words "Come home with me" leaving her mind blank.

Seeing them return, Xu Xiaoqing said in disappointment, "Brother-in-law, why are you two back so quickly?"
