My Pregnant Contract Wife Ran Away from Me!
Chapter 218 What do you think?

Chapter 218: Chapter 218 What do you think?

She watched as Fu Chenlie finished ordering and handed the menu to the waiter, then turned his head to look at her.

In that moment, their eyes met in midair.

Wen Ran instinctively looked away, her gaze flickering as if she had been caught doing something guilty.

Fu Chenlie chuckled, "What are you hiding from?"

She stubbornly retorted, "I’m not hiding."

He leaned back in his chair, casually fixing his gaze on her, and even fabricated a reason for her, "I’m your husband. I can look whenever I want, for as long as I want. It’s your right."

Wen Ran glanced at him, "I was just spacing out just now. I didn’t want to look at you."

After saying that, she reached for the water beside her and pretended to sip it, trying to ease her nervousness.

But Fu Chenlie, being straightforward, called her out, "Actions speak louder than words."

Wen Ran, "..."

Alright, no more arguments.

"I’m going to the restroom. Wait here."

"Oh, okay."

Wen Ran agreed, and the man got up and left the private room.

After the door closed, she breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed.

While waiting, Wen Ran took out her phone and texted Jiang Yan, "Ah Yan, my husband suddenly took me to a fancy restaurant today. I don’t know what got into him. It’s quite frightening."

Jiang Yan, "Is this his way of making amends? He must have been captivated by your beautiful face, wanting to kiss, hug, and lift you up."

Wen Ran, "emmm... we’ve kissed and hugged before, but honestly, I’m not used to his sudden good attitude towards me."

Jiang Yan, "Wow, have you guys slept together yet?!"

Wen Ran, "No! We haven’t gotten that far!"

Jiang Yan, "You will! If Mr. Fu treats you well, just slowly get used to it. Trust me, your fortune is yet to come!"

What fortune?

In a year, they were to divorce, and even if Fu Chenlie was temporarily nice to her, she could only treat it as a beautiful dream. Dreams would eventually end, so she had to stay rational.

Creeeaak, the door to the private room opened.

Wen Ran thought it was Fu Chenlie returning and instinctively turned her head to look.

Indeed, it was him.

But the way he looked at her appeared mysteriously deep.

After entering, he closed the door and walked towards her with long strides.

Wen Ran turned her head back and waited for him to approach.

Before long, a bunch of roses suddenly appeared in front of her.

Accompanied by the low voice of the man, "Mrs. Fu, these are for you."

She was so surprised that she stood up from her seat.

Wen Ran didn’t take the bouquet, and after stepping back two paces, she looked at Fu Chenlie with a startled expression, "Boss, why... why are you giving me flowers? It’s quite frightening."

"Are the flowers frightening? Or... is it me?"

"It’s neither. It’s your act of giving flowers that’s frightening."

He slightly curved his lips and moved closer to her.

Wen Ran instinctively stepped back, only for her hand to be caught.

The man gave her a look, motioning her to look at the bouquet in his hands.

She instinctively looked down and saw the beautiful roses, complemented by some white baby’s breath, utterly captivating.

If she accepted it, this would be Wen Ran’s first time receiving fresh flowers.

But since the flowers were from Fu Chenlie, everything seemed eerie.

"Pretty?" he pressed.

Wen Ran came back to her senses, raising her head to look at him, "They are beautiful, but why are you giving them to me?"

Fu Chenlie’s dark eyes seemed to hold a special allure, drawing her gaze to his face irresistibly.

At the same time, the man’s deep voice flowed from between his lips, earnest and melodious, "Mrs. Fu, I apologize for my poor attitude towards you in the early days after our marriage certification, and I hope we can start afresh from today."

Hearing this, he handed her the flowers, "How do you feel about that?"
