Me and My Cold CEO Wife

A quiet night passed...

The next day, when a ray of morning sunlight shone on the head of the bed, Lan Kexin was the first to wake up.

However, once she woke up, she felt as if her body had fallen apart, so uncomfortable.

Her beautiful face showed a pained expression.

"Huh? Where is this?"

Lan Kexin opened her eyes and saw that she was lying in a bed, and the environment in front of her was clearly a small hotel.

When she looked to the side, her beautiful eyes filled with terror!

Because the man sleeping beside her was a stranger!

"Ah!!!"

Lan Kexin screamed in fright, and with a forceful kick of her pristine feet, she immediately kicked the man lying beside her off the bed.

"Damn it!"

The sudden kick nearly made Ning Fan sprain his back.

"Are you crazy!"

Ning Fan cursed, his body bare, wearing only a pair of bright red underwear.

"You, you shameless rogue, you actually... you actually..."

Lan Kexin then clearly saw the man's face, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't recall last night's events.

Looking down, she realized she was not wearing any clothes!

Instantly, her mind imagined all kinds of horrific scenarios. Could it be that he had...

Thinking this, Lan Kexin felt as if her heart was being sliced apart, this was her first time!

"Beauty, listen to my explanation."

Ning Fan really wanted to tell her what had happened last night.

"I won't listen! I won't listen! You shameless guy, taking advantage when I was drunk..."

As she spoke, Lan Kexin felt aggrieved, tears swirling in her eyes.

She remembered attending a friend's party last night, just indulging in a few extra drinks, never expecting such a disgraceful scene to occur. Now thinking about it, she regretted it deeply.

"It's not what you think..."

Ning Fan was frustrated.

"We didn't do anything last night, I just..."

"Nothing happened and you took off my clothes? Nothing happened and you lay in my bed?"

Lan Kexin didn't listen to his lame excuses.

If nothing happened, why strip me naked?

Seeing her angry look, Ning Fan felt like he was beyond defense.

He had a Pure Yang Body, which meant he couldn't touch women at all. Last night, he was just resolving the effect of a drug for her. As for why he took off her clothes, it's a long story.

"Look beauty, you slept with me, okay? If anyone should be responsible, it's you for mine. A pure virgin like me, how am I to face anyone now!"

Saying that, he mimicked Lan Kexin's shy covering-if-face act.

"I..."

Lan Kexin almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Is there no justice? Could there be a more shameless man? How could he even say that?

"Are you even a man?"

Lan Kexin was tearfully speechless. Was this even a legitimate move?

Seeing that she stopped making a fuss, Ning Fan decided to take his shamelessness to the extreme, "Whether I am a man or not, didn't you test that out last night? You played me, and you don't want to pay up?"

"I... Damn!"

Lan Kexin was stunned for a long time, completely defeated by his argument.

However, thinking about last night's events, her heart stirred. Could it really be that I played him?

Yes! I wasn't played by him; he was played by me!

Yes, that must be it!

To soothe herself, she could only accept this reasoning.

"Fine! Remember this, it's not you who played me, I played you!"

Having said that, Lan Kexin grabbed her clothes and rushed into the bathroom.

Then, after getting dressed, she turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hey, beauty, if you played me, shouldn't you at least pay the prostitution fee?"

The playful tone of Ning Fan's voice arose from behind her.

Originally, Ning Fan had a pretty good impression of her, and last night, to help her, he had not hesitated to trouble himself.

I thought good deeds would be rewarded, but it turned out this girl not only didn't repay the favor but also accused me counteractively like Zhu Bajie.

"You!"

Lan Kexin, who was about to leave, nearly slipped to the ground.

"You're ruthless! Never let me see you again!"

To seal his mouth, Lan Kexin took a stack of banknotes out of her purse and tossed it on the bed, then she left resolutely in her high heels…

Ning Fan shrugged his shoulders and chuckled, "This is interesting."

Actually, nothing had happened between them last night. Ning Fan had only undressed her to relieve the drug effects in her body. Plus, under the influence of the drugs, Lan Kexin made some moves on him, which led her to the false impression that Ning Fan had done something to her.

But, to put it bluntly, Lan Kexin never gave him a chance to explain. Even if he wanted to state what had happened, he never had the opportunity.

After a bitter smile, Ning Fan jumped out of bed. His robust body, with distinct muscles, was exposed—though he looked thin dressed, his physique was just like Bruce Lee!

What was terrifying was that his sturdy muscles were covered with frightening scars and numerous chilling bullet holes!!!

… Xu Family Manor.

Ning Fan entered the manor yawning. Last night had been too tumultuous; he hadn't slept well.

As soon as he stepped into the manor, he saw Liu Chongyang and the Xu family head, Xu Chengyuan, waiting in the living room.

Seeing Ning Fan appear, Liu Chongyang hurriedly greeted him.

"Master, where have you been?"

Ning Fan paused and then chortled, "Went for a run."

"Haha, master truly follows a strict routine. We old-timers aren't as disciplined as you."

Liu Chongyang laughed loudly, "So master, did you sleep well last night?"

"It was okay…"

Reluctantly, Ning Fan replied; he couldn't very well tell this old youngster that last night he had slept snuggling a woman.

"God Doctor Ning, did you sleep well last night? Are you getting used to it?"

Not far ahead, Xu Chengyuan also came forward, his face all smiles, brimming with enthusiasm.

"It wasn't as comfortable as my wooden bed… but it was not bad either." Ning Fan shrugged and directly sat at the dining table, devouring the breakfast that had been prepared.

"Haha, as long as God Doctor Ning is satisfied."

Xu Chengyuan laughed loudly, exchanging a glance with Liu Chongyang.

"Family head Xu, stop calling me God Doctor Ning, just call me Ning Fan." As Ning Fan continued to eat, he glanced at a respectfully looking Liu Chongyang and said, "And you shouldn't call me master either, it sounds too old-fashioned. Just call me Ning Fan."

"How could that be possible?"

Liu Chongyang appeared flattered.

"What's wrong with that? Am I that old?"

Saying so, Ning Fan feigned anger, prompting Liu Chongyang to nod his head.

"God… Mister Ning, do you have any other plans today?"

Xu Chengyuan stepped forward and asked.

Ning Fan shook his head.

"This villa is too modest to provide a comfortable stay, and it makes me uneasy to keep you here. Why not move to our Xu family main house to atone for our less-than-adequate hospitality yesterday, and we'll make you comfortable till you're satisfied."

Upon hearing Xu Chengyuan's words, Ning Fan finally raised his head and wiped his mouth.

"I forgot, I have an important matter to handle; prepare for it if you could."

Xu Chengyuan and Liu Chongyang exchanged looks, both puzzled. What important matter that needed their preparation?

However, Xu Chengyuan felt overjoyed; no matter the task, as long as it could aid Ning Fan, it meant an added favor, naturally bringing their relationship closer.

"Help me arrange a job at Xu Corporation, it will facilitate my investigation into who's the mastermind behind this." Ning Fan remarked.

From yesterday's treatment, Ning Fan was certain that this wasn't just a simple curse; he suspected someone was targeting Xu Ruolan's life!

Thinking it over, Ning Fan glanced back at Xu Ruolan and Xu Xiaoqing, who were coming down the stairs.

"I'm going to work at Xu Corporation's company."

Upon hearing Ning Fan's words, Xu Xiaoqing's eyes widened, and she misstepped on the staircase, bumping into Xu Ruolan.

The bumped Xu Ruolan stood still, her lips pursed, her complexion colder.

She couldn't develop any fondness for Ning Fan, with the only positive feeling being gratitude for curing a stubborn illness...

For Xu Ruolan, liking was liking, and not liking was just that, especially since Ning Fan had boldly and frivolously teased her previously in the small orphan village, which drastically lowered her favorable impression of him.

Hearing that he was going to work, her slender eyebrows furrowed even more.

And behind her, Xu Xiaoqing grew even more upset at the news.

"Ning Fan, don't even think about it!"

"My good maid, don't forget you still have a month to serve me. A maid, after all, should obediently follow her master's commands."

Ning Fan teased Xu Xiaoqing with a comment.

Xu Xiaoqing's eyes reddened, regretting why she had agreed to become his maid in the first place. If it weren't for his curing her sister, she would have dismembered Ning Fan by now…
