Chapter 233
Li Jingran stood under the streetlight and looked down at the girl’s petite figure. He laughed lightly. “Are you worried about me?”
“Who’s worried about you?”Xu Wanwan mumbled softly. “I’ve already said that we don’t want to see each other. Why are you following me?”
“I’m waiting for you.”
Li Jingran paused and said in a low voice, “Let’s go home.”
Xu Wanwan slowly walked to the man’s side. “Let’s go then.”
Li Jingran’s thin lips twitched slightly. He grabbed her arm with one hand and brought her into the car.
He was much more obedient today.
He was in a good mood.
When they got home, Xu Wanwan took off her coat and went back to her room to find a thick nightgown.
After a quick shower, she went upstairs in her nightgown. When she saw that the light in the study room was still on, she relaxed.
Fortunately, Li Jingran had not gone to take a shower yet.
This way, she could go back to her room earlier and sleep. When she fell asleep, she would not feel awkward.
With this thought in mind, Xu Wanwan quickly went upstairs and pushed the door open.
She stood at the door, her body completely frozen on the spot.
“You… why are you on the bed?”
On the dark gray bed, Li Jingran was wearing a thin shirt and leaning against the headboard. The book in his hand was closed, and he was staring at her.
The moment their eyes met, Xu Wanwan wanted to slam the door and leave decisively.
“Come here.”The man did not answer her question. He just pointed to the seat beside him and signaled for Xu Wanwan to go over.
Whoosh!
It was just a blanket to sleep on. It was not a big deal.
Anyway, she was still wearing such thick pajamas and could not touch the man’s body.
If they slept together, then they slept together. He didn’t feel awkward, so why should he be embarrassed?
Xu Wanwan comforted herself for a long time in her heart. Then, she wrapped her pajamas tightly and walked to the bedside in small steps.
She cautiously sat far away from Li Jingran and whispered, “Aren’t you going to take a shower?”
Li Jingran’s gaze was very direct. He stared directly at the girl’s face. “I’ve already taken a shower.”
“Oh…”Xu Wanwan scratched her nose. “Then rest.”
As she spoke, she got up and simply pressed the button on the bedside lamp.
Click.
The room suddenly turned dark. The only light was the moonlight outside the window.
Xu Wanwan slowly walked to the side of the bed and quietly lay down on the bed. She pulled the corner of the blanket over her and closed her eyes.
That night, she did not sleep well. She was constantly on guard against Li Jingran, afraid that he would do something excessive.
But in the second half of the night, she was so sleepy that she couldn’t open her eyes. Only then did she gradually fall asleep.
It was deep in the night. Li Jingran heard the sound of steady breathing coming from beside him. He turned over, moved closer to the petite figure, and pulled her into his arms.
The next day, when Xu Wanwan woke up, the seat next to her was already empty.
She got up and yawned. She subconsciously checked her clothes. Only when she saw that her clothes were intact did she feel at ease.
Just like before, she went to school after having breakfast at the Li family’s house.
As soon as she arrived at the classroom, Lin Jiannan hurriedly pulled her over. “Wanwan, there’s important news. You have to be mentally prepared!”
Xu Wanwan was shocked by Lin Jiannan’s serious look for a moment.
“What’s wrong? What Happened?”
“Wanwan, when you weren’t here, the class needed to collect homework. I saw that you didn’t bring your schoolbag back, so I rummaged through your schoolbag.”

“In the end, I found a pinhole listening device in your schoolbag!”
When Lin Jiannan mentioned this, she still had some lingering fear in her heart.
“That listening device was implanted deep inside your schoolbag. If you don’t look carefully, you won’t be able to find it. Who Did This to you?”
Xu Wanwan’s back also broke out in a cold sweat. “Where’s The Listening Device?”
Lin Jiannan took out a small black part from his pocket. “This is it. I’ve already broken it.”
Xu Wanwan looked at the Bug and her heart was in a mess.
Her school bag was always with her. No one could open it except for those who were very close to her.
Could It Be… Li Jingran?
Once the seed of doubt was planted in her heart, she would use many examples to prove it.
Xu Wanwan suddenly thought of many suspicious things from before.
She clearly did not tell anyone about the dinner last night, but Li Jingran could appear ahead of time.
Only Lin Jiannan knew that she became the designer of an Qing company, but Li Jingran also knew about this.
During this period of time, he always appeared by coincidence. Everything was related to this bug.
Xu Wanwan’s fingers could not help but tighten, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
Treating her in such a way was too much.
After school, she went straight to the Li Corporation.
Just as she rushed to the President’s office, Secretary Lin appeared in front of her with a surprised expression. “Miss Xu, why are you here at this time?”
Xu Wanwan was very angry now, but she was angry at Li Jingran. It had nothing to do with the others.
She looked at Secretary Lin and forced a smile. “I’m looking for director Li for something.”
“Then you came at a bad time,”secretary Lin said calmly. “Director Li is in a meeting right now. Why Don’t you go back first and let director Li know when the meeting is over?”
Xu Wanwan shook her head with a determined look in her eyes. She insisted on waiting for Li Jingran to come out and then confront him face to face.
“It’s okay. I’ll wait here.”
“The meeting has just started. It might take some time. Are you sure?”
Xu Wanwan nodded. “Yes!”
If director Li knew that Miss Xu came to the company to look for him, he would be in a much better mood.
Secretary Lin didn’t know what to say, so she poured a cup of coffee for Xu Wanwan and went to do her own things.
Xu Wanwan thought that she would be fine after waiting for an hour, but she didn’t expect that she would wait for three hours.
It was already nine o’clock in the evening, but Li Jingran still hadn’t come out.
She got up and walked around in a fluster. When she reached the door of the meeting room, she really wanted to push the door open and pull Li Jingran out to question him.
But she was only thinking about it. In reality, she couldn’t do such a thing.
“Miss Xu, why don’t you go to director Li’s office to rest first?”Secretary Lin couldn’t stand it anymore and couldn’t help but ask, “The company has encountered some problems recently. Director Li has been working overtime for many days. It’s not a good idea for you to keep waiting here.”
Xu Wanwan was startled and asked subconsciously, “What problems did the Li Corporation encounter?”
“The branches overseas aren’t doing too well. Director Li has been busy with this matter recently.”
Secretary Lin Sighed softly. “Although work is very important, you still have to take care of your health. You really have to persuade director Li.”
Xu Wanwan turned her head away without batting an eyelid and muttered very softly, “How could he listen to me?”
Secretary Lin did not hear what she said. Instead, she opened the door of Li Jingran’s office. “There’s a small blanket on the sofa. You can lie down and rest for a while.”
Xu Wanwan hesitated for a moment, but she still walked in.
She sat on the soft sofa and covered herself with the warm blanket. Instead, she was not so angry anymore.
As she waited and waited, she felt sleepy. Xu Wanwan yawned a few times and lay on the sofa, falling asleep unknowingly.
