Chapter 416: Chapter 416: She Hugged You, Right?

After Wen Ran spoke, there was no awkward expression on Fu Chenlie’s face when being questioned.

He answered openly, "Recently, the Fu Group has a rather tricky cooperation case. The cooperating party has some connections with Wan Ning. As the company’s project department manager, she arranged a meeting for me and the other party over dinner. That’s why we met."

There’s no more reasonable explanation than that.

Wen Ran nodded and gave a faint smile, "Ms. Wan Ning’s work ability must be strong, right?"

"It’s okay," he said.

She suddenly felt a bit envious, envious that Jiang Wan Ning could contribute to his career, while she was only worthy of being an insignificant driver.

A man as excellent as Fu Chenlie shouldn’t have a woman like her standing beside him.

"What are you thinking about?" He looked at her, dazed and lost in thought, and couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows to ask.

Wen Ran snapped back to reality and smiled lightly, "Darling, do you prefer girls who are capable at work or more homey girls?"

"Why ask this suddenly?"

"I just want to know, answer me?"

How could Fu Chen not understand what she was worried and conflicted about?

He drew her into his arms, letting her lean against his shoulder, and his thin lips kissed her forehead, his deep voice carrying a trace of reassurance, "I like a woman for who she is, not whether she’s capable at work. Otherwise, why did I repeatedly refuse CEO Zhou when she confessed to me? CEO Zhou’s work ability is no less than Wan Ning’s, so Madam, don’t overthink it. Everything with Wan Ning is in the past; you’re my firm final choice."

Wen Ran smelled a trace of perfume on the man.

This scent, she had also smelled it when she met Jiang Wan Ning in the park that day.

She lowered her eyes, her lashes casting a shadow on her lower eyelid.

Wen Ran knew that Fu Chenlie was someone trustworthy, but Jiang Wan Ning wasn’t a former lover who would easily give up. After all, Jiang Wan Ning had more than once asked her to leave Fu Chenlie.

It was clear that Jiang Wan Ning was determined to take Fu Chenlie away from her.

When a man is indifferent and a woman is intent, who can ensure that Fu Chenlie won’t rekindle old feelings with Jiang Wan Ning during their constant interactions?!

Pulling back from her thoughts, Wen Ran rose from his embrace, "Darling, I have an unreasonable request. Can you promise it?"

"What request?"

"I don’t like Jiang Wan Ning staying at the Fu Group and working with you. Could you fire her? There are many companies in Jiang City, and you could refer her to another company. If she’s truly capable, she can definitely get the same salary and position as she has at the Fu Group."

Fu Chenlie’s expression changed slightly, and his brows furrowed.

He didn’t agree but instead reiterated, "She and I are just work colleagues, Ranran, don’t be unreasonable, okay?"

"But she still likes you; she wants to win you back."

"That’s her issue."

Until now, she still maintained a negotiative tone and attitude, "But darling, allowing an ex-girlfriend who has malicious intent and is eager to reconcile to stay by your side, working closely with you, I don’t feel secure."

Fu Chenlie knitted his brows, trying to suppress the impatience rising in his chest, "Just because Wan Ning and I met today, do you have to act like this?"

Wen Ran smiled softly.

She scooted over on the sofa, pulling a bit of distance between them, her almond eyes meeting his gaze, "You can take off your suit jacket and smell it. See if there’s a woman’s perfume scent on it."

The man’s gaze changed suddenly.

Wen Ran watched his expression change, smiling softly, and seemingly calm, she asked, "She hugged you, didn’t she?"
