My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chen Ziran was shopping with Mi Lan when the phone suddenly rang.

She picked it up and looked at it, her expression turning extraordinarily strange.

”What’s wrong?” Mi Lan asked as she saw Chen Ziran’s odd expression.

”It’s the landline from Grandma’s place.” Saying this, Chen Ziran answered the call. Upon hearing a single sentence, her pupils contracted suddenly, and her face was full of disbelief: How could this be? They actually want me to go back?

Suddenly remembering what Ye Guichen had told her, Chen Ziran bit her lip: ”Please tell Grandma, I’m not coming back.”

With that, she hung up the phone with a loud snap.

On the other end, the old lady’s secretary looked very embarrassed.

”What’s going on?” the old lady asked.

The secretary replied, ”Mr. Chen said she’s not coming back.”

”What?” The old lady’s face turned very ugly: ”At this hour, she’s still throwing a tantrum with me? Give me the phone, I’ll talk to her myself!”

Taking the phone, the old lady personally called Chen Ziran.

Chen Ziran still firmly insisted that she would not return.

The old lady’s face looked even worse.

Beside her, a middle-aged man coaxed, ”Mom, did you see that? Chen Ziran completely ignores you.”

This middle-aged man, named Chen Guangzong, was Chen Ziran’s uncle, the father of Chen Longxiang.

The old lady snorted. Though furious, she had no other options and could only say hatefully: ”This girl has really turned the world upside down. Once this matter is settled, I’ll deal with her properly.”

As she spoke, she slowly stood up: ”Let’s go. I’ll go to Guanghui’s house myself. I don’t believe I can’t get her to come back.”

Both Divine Wind Pharmaceutical and those suppliers in Yun City specifically named Chen Ziran as the person they wanted to deal with. At such a moment, no matter how unwilling the old lady was, there was no other way.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ziran’s heart involuntarily started beating several times faster.

Oh my god, did I just refuse Grandma?

To know that ever since Grandpa passed away, it has always been Grandma who called the shots in the Chen Family, and no one ever dared to contradict her.

But today, I actually refused her!

”Are you okay?” Seeing Chen Ziran’s unnatural expression, Mi Lan asked.

”No, nothing. It’s just that Grandma asked me to go back, and I refused,” Chen Ziran did not hide it.

”What?” Mi Lan exclaimed, staring at Chen Ziran in disbelief: ”Did that scumbag really get it right? Oh my god, your Grandma always gets her way, and you actually refused her? She must hate you now!”

Chen Ziran smiled bitterly without explaining, and took out her phone to call Ye Guichen.

”What’s wrong?”

”Grandma asked me to go back, but I refused.”

Ye Guichen was not surprised at all and said calmly: ”She will personally come to ask you to return. However, since she publicly sent you away, do you think it will be easy to go back? When the time comes, you should ask for a car.”

”What?” Chen Ziran said incredulously: ”Grandma asking me to come back is already unheard of, how could she possibly agree to give me a car?”

Although Chen Ziran was technically the vice president of the company, she had no real power and usually feared others’ jealousy, so she didn’t dare to have a private car.

Now Ye Guichen was actually suggesting that she make such a request to her grandma.

Was he trying to get her killed?

Ye Guichen smiled: ”Trust me, just do as I say.”

Chen Ziran felt a bit dizzy: How could this guy be so sure Grandma would agree?

”Ring ring!”

Her thoughts in disarray, the phone rang again.

”Chen Ziran, get home quickly.” This time it was her mother, Lv Ping, whose voice was filled with excitement and anticipation, even a bit of impatience.

Chen Ziran asked curiously, ”Mom, what’s going on?”

”Hurry up, no nonsense, right now!”

Chen Ziran could refuse her grandmother, but she couldn’t refuse her mother.

After parting ways with Mi Lan, Chen Ziran took a taxi home, only to find out upon arrival that her grandmother had come.

This was a rare occurrence indeed.

In the past, her grandmother never set foot in their branch of the Chen Family.

”Mom, Ranran is back. If you have anything to say, you could have just called her. Why come all the way personally?” said Lv Ping with a fawning smile.

Chen Guanghui was also at a loss for what to do. Although he was the old lady’s son, his timid nature never won her favor.

Seeing Chen Ziran, the old lady’s expression softened, though she was still unhappy. For the sake of the Chen Group, she still put on a kind face: ”Ziran, I know you feel wronged. Grandma knows she went a bit too far. Today I came to tell you that from now on, the medical equipment division will be entirely your responsibility. How about that?”

”What? Mom, is that true?” Lv Ping was overjoyed upon hearing that.

With this assurance from the old lady, Chen Guanghui’s branch of the family would certainly see a substantial rise in status within the Chen Family and wouldn’t have to be so concerned about other people’s opinions.

The old lady ignored Lv Ping and looked expectantly at Chen Ziran.

”Grandma, I...”

”What ’I,’ Grandma has already said it; hurry up and agree!” Lv Ping said, pulling at Chen Ziran with an irritated tone.

Chen Ziran remembered Ye Guichen’s words and hesitated for a moment: ”Grandma, I’ll go back on one condition. The other members of the Chen Group have cars, and I want one too.”

Lv Ping was stunned.

Had this girl gone crazy?

She knew that the old lady hated being bargained with the most.

Now Chen Ziran dared to make a demand of the old lady?

If the old lady got angry, the consequences would be unthinkable.

”Ranran, how can you talk to Grandma like that! Apologize right now!” Lv Ping was so anxious that she broke into a cold sweat, smiling apologetically at the old lady: ”Mom, that’s not what Ranran meant, don’t misunderstand, don’t misunderstand.”

”Mom, I mean it. If I don’t get a car, I won’t do it,” Chen Ziran said.

”You... you’ve grown wings, haven’t you? You...” Lv Ping was sweating.

Had this girl lost her mind today?

To everyone’s surprise, the old lady just let out a hum: ”Fine, I’ll give you fifty thousand. You can choose whatever car you want.”

She agreed?

Lv Ping was completely stunned.

The old lady not only didn’t get angry, but she agreed?

After finally sending the old lady off, Lv Ping looked at Chen Ziran as if she were a stranger: ”Ranran, what on earth did you do? You made the old lady come in person, and she even agreed to your demand?”

Chen Ziran felt like she was dreaming.

She never expected the old lady to change her usual cold attitude towards her and even agree to the request for a car, something that seemed utterly unreasonable before.

”Could it really be that guy’s doing?”

At this moment, Chen Ziran’s mind was filled with even more questions than Lv Ping’s. She hurried out of the house, receiving a call from her secretary Annie on the way.

Annie was ecstatic on the phone, saying that those suppliers would provide Chen Group with medical equipment for free to make up for the lost order from Renmin Hospital.

Even more unbelievable, Divine Wind Pharmaceutical would also supply medical equipment to the Chen Group at cost price and even expressed willingness to maintain a long-term cooperation with the Chen Group in the future.

It was like a great windfall from heaven, leaving Chen Ziran utterly dumbfounded.

”Ye Guichen, where are you? I need to see you right now.” Chen Ziran quickly dialed Ye Guichen’s number, and when she saw him, she couldn’t utter a single word from all the questions swirling in her mind.
