Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Hooking Me Is Your Skill

"What improper relationship?" he pressed.

Wen Ran looked at him in distress.

She didn’t understand—did this need to be translated?

Fu Chenlie’s deep gaze fell on her face, watching the silent woman, he suddenly lifted his foot, stepping forward to corner her against the car, and looking down at her, he demanded, "In your eyes, a legally married couple is an improper relationship?"

"No, I mean... CEO Zhou doesn’t know."

"Who told you she doesn’t know?"

Wen Ran had originally been deliberately avoiding his gaze when talking to him, but on hearing this, she suddenly looked up to meet his profound eyes, and even stuttered when she spoke, "You... what do you mean?"

He didn’t answer but grabbed her arm, walked her to the passenger side, pulled open the door, and shoved her in.

This time, the man even thoughtfully bent down to pull over the seat belt and fasten it for her.

After securing it, Fu Chenlie didn’t immediately withdraw from the car. His pitch-black pupils settled on Wen Ran’s face, "In the future, don’t let me see you sneaking around. You and I are in a hidden marriage, not an affair, understand?"

Wen Ran looked at the handsome face close to hers, seeing the firmness in his eyes, and, as if possessed, she nodded.

The man smiled with satisfaction, raised his hand, and his calloused fingertips caressed her face lingeringly—with a voice carrying a hint of threat, he said, "Remember, if there’s a next time, I will release an internal company email to let everyone know you are my wife."

Wen Ran, "..."

That could not happen.

Slam—

Fu Chenlie closed the passenger door with force, walked around the front of the car, and got into the driver’s seat.

The car soon drove out of the underground parking lot.

Wen Ran let out a long sigh of relief.

About five minutes after driving off, the thought of what he had just said was still fermenting in her mind—

Who told you she doesn’t know?

So, CEO Zhou knows about her relationship with Fu Chenlie?

Curiosity drove Wen Ran to glance at him, hesitating several times before finally she spoke up, "Boss, does CEO Zhou really know about our relationship or not?"

Fu Chenlie glanced at her from the corner of his eye without responding, and countered with a question, "Do you know how many women in the company harbor ulterior motives toward me?"

"... I know a lot of female employees like you."

"So, are you planning to avoid every female employee in the company, just like you’re avoiding CEO Zhou?"

Wen Ran pursed her lips, and slowly said, "Generally speaking, as long as we don’t engage in overly intimate actions, we don’t need to hide. Mainly today, because CEO Zhou saw us close together in your office, if she also saw us holding hands in the parking lot, she would guess the nature of our relationship."

"So what if she does?" Fu Chenlie retorted, unconcerned.

She whispered, "Then CEO Zhou would think I’m seducing you."

"Seduction?"

He raised his tone, repeating the word, then scoffed, "There are many women who’ve tried to seduce me, but not just any woman can hook me. If you manage to seduce me, then that’s a skill you possess."

Wen Ran, "..."

That’s a skill I’d rather not have.

Whatever, whether CEO Zhou knows or not.

Wen Ran gathered her thoughts, looking casually out of the window, but then she noticed the cityscape outside—it definitely wasn’t the road to Huan Island Villa.

She looked at Fu Chen skeptically, "Boss, are you lost?"

He snorted in disdain, without responding.

Wen Ran reminded him again, "What are you snorting for? This isn’t the way home; you’ve taken the wrong turn."

The man frowned, impatiently said, "Shut up! I know where I’m going."
