My Pregnant Contract Wife Ran Away from Me!

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Dare to Target Him?!

Fu Chenlie walked over to the sofa across from Granny without any change in his expression and sat down. "I told her to go practice driving."

"Did she go out by herself?"

"Uh-huh."

Granny was immediately furious. "You little rascal, which family lets your wife practice driving for free? What if she damaged their car, wouldn’t that be imposing on others? I think you’re deliberately making things difficult for her."

"You’re overthinking it."

"Call her now and tell Ranran to come back."

Fu Chenlie silently took out his phone and redialed the number that hadn’t gone through earlier.

The first time, the call was hung up.

A nameless rage flared up in his heart.

The second time, it was hung up again!

The fire in his chest blazed fiercely.

Fu Chenlie, annoyed, threw his phone onto the coffee table in front of the office sofa. "She’s not answering."

Granny snorted coldly and took out her own phone to call Wen Ran.

She answered on the first ring.

Fu Chenlie, hearing the call was connected, flashed a look of disbelief.

Was Wen Ran really targeting him?!

Over on Granny’s end, her expression softened as soon as she started speaking to Wen Ran, her face breaking into a happy smile. "Ranran, where are you?"

Wen Ran answered obediently, "I’m practicing driving, what’s up, Grandma?"

"Who did you find to teach you?"

"My classmate."

Granny glanced at Fu Chenlie. "A classmate, huh? Is it a male or female classmate?"

Seeming to sense Granny’s misconception, Wen Ran hastened to clarify as she answered, "A male classmate, but he’s really just a classmate. He’s a good driver and very patient."

"That’s fine, that’s fine, Grandma understands. Here’s the thing, I’m at Fu Group in Ah Lie’s office right now. Can you come back and have lunch with Grandma, would that be okay?"

"Sure, Grandma, I’ll head back right now."

"Invite your classmate too as a thank you."

"That might not be a good idea. Mr. Fu probably wouldn’t like eating with strangers."

Granny scoffed lightly. "As if he has a say in it when I’m here?!"

"...Alright then, I’ll see if my classmate wants to come. Grandma, see you later."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Granny looked at Fu Chenlie. "Ranran asked her classmate to teach her how to drive. She seems to get along well with people. We’ll have lunch later with her classmate as a way to show our appreciation."

"You go if you want to, I’m busy."

"Too busy even for lunch?"

Fu Chenlie, browsing through some documents, responded indifferently, "Not hungry."

"Alright, then after Ranran arrives, you can drop me off, and I’ll go to lunch while you come back to work."

"Got it."

Granny’s eyes slightly twinkled. Wouldn’t her grandson feel like slapping himself when he sees his wife bringing another man to lunch?

Still not hungry? Nice try!

...

In the Mercedes, Wen Ran was sitting in the passenger seat, adding a contact in her phone for Fu Chenlie.

Zhao Xiuyun observed her facial expression. "Sorry, Ranran. I thought the unlisted number was a spam call, and you had gone to the restroom, so I hung up."

"It’s okay, I’m adding his contact now."

Zhao Xiuyun tentatively asked, "Who is that actually?"

"My boss," Wen Ran said.

After a moment, she looked up at Zhao Xiuyun. "The person treating us to lunch later is my boss’s grandmother, Granny Fu. She’s really nice and even helped me get a job as a driver."

Zhao Xiuyun smiled warmly. "Okay, got it."

Still concerned, Wen Ran added, "But my boss has a temper and can be quite harsh with his words, so try to ignore him during the meal."
