“Miss Bai, are you not going to give me face?”

After work, Bai Ran was just leaving the company when she heard this.

Bai Ran widened her eyes and looked in the direction of the voice. She had never seen him before, but she recognized the car. It was the same car that had appeared twice before.

Looking at this person, he was in his early thirties. He had a handsome face and deep eyes. He was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He had an extraordinary aura. Bai Ran guessed that this was probably the boss who had never revealed his true face before.

She did not expect him to be so young.

If not for Chen Chen’s beauty, she might have been stunned by this person’s bearing.

“No, I was just too busy previously. I’m sorry.” Bai Ran smiled apologetically.

“Then are you busy today? May I have the honor of treating you to a meal?” the person asked humbly. “Let me introduce myself. My surname is Huo.”

After some thought, Bai Ran followed him into the car.

The next morning, Bai Ran had just packed up and left when she bumped into Hu Wan at the door.

Bai Ran’s good mood was instantly ruined, but she still pretended to be expressionless and said, “Sister Wan, actually, you know that I don’t like you coming to my house, especially since the way you know my address isn’t that honorable.”

“I just…” Hu Wan felt a little guilty.

“I know what you want to say.” Bai Ran waved his hand. “I won’t invite you in. I still have to go to work later. Let’s make things clear here.”

“I didn’t get a divorce with him yesterday either because he had an accident,” Bai Ran said calmly.

“Ah, an accident?” Hu Wan exclaimed. “How is Chen Chen now? Which hospital is he at? I want to see him!”

“No wonder Chen Chen didn’t visit me yesterday. I called him and he said he was busy with work!”

“It’s just a mild concussion. He woke up yesterday. It shouldn’t be a big problem,” Bai Ran replied.

“Then go see him first. I’ve already explained what needs to be explained. It’s not that I don’t want to get a divorce,” Bai Ran said as she prepared to lock the door.

“Wait, Ran Ran.” Hu Wan pulled Bai Ran back. “But I think he thinks you don’t want to get a divorce.”

“Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dragged it out like this. It’s not that he was seriously injured and couldn’t go. These are just excuses,” Hu Wan explained.

“What are you trying to say?” Bai Ran lost her patience.

“I want you to be more proactive about this and push him again,” Hu Wan said.

“Ran Ran, I know that saying this is making things difficult for you, but I really don’t have much time left. Now, Chen Chen is just holding on to the responsibility and doesn’t want to leave. He doesn’t love you. This is unfair to you too. Why don’t you let go and help me and him, and also help yourself?” Hu Wan said in tears.

“Sister Wan, you know how urgent I was in front of him. If you’re still dissatisfied, I’ll look for him to settle the procedures later. I think he should be discharged by now.” Bai Ran could not be bothered to waste any more time. After all, this was the outcome she wanted.

For example, why did she enter that car last night and eat with Boss Huo? Wasn’t it because she wanted to push for the results?

“Alright, thank you, Ran Ran.” Hu Wan held Bai Ran’s hand affectionately. “Ran Ran, if there’s anything you need in the future, just tell me. I’ll definitely do my best to help you!”

Bai Ran gently pushed Hu Wan’s hand away and said, “Sister Wan, you don’t have to be so polite. Settling this matter as soon as possible is good for everyone.”

Bai Ran locked the door and prepared to go to work. She saw that Hu Wan still had no intention of leaving.

She looked at Hu Wan in confusion.

Hu Wan bit her lip and said, “Ran Ran, can I watch you resolve this matter with him?”

“Okay, got it.” Bai Ran understood and took out her phone.

“Hello, Young Master Chen?”

“Can you get a divorce today?”

Then, Bai Ran turned on the public speaker and aimed her phone at Hu Wan.

“Bai Ran, aren’t you being a little heartless? I’m still in the hospital! Must you get a divorce today?!” Chen Chen’s roar came from the other end of the line.

Bai Ran covered her ears and looked at Hu Wan helplessly.

Bai Ran arrived at the company and was about to change her clothes to film when she walked into the filming location.

Suddenly, an aggressive woman rushed toward them. Before Bai Ran could see clearly, her face was suddenly slapped hard, and her ears buzzed.

“I’m warning you, stay away from my man! Do you still want to be someone else’s mistress?!” The person had already become ferocious because of her rage.

The staff around were all confused by this sudden situation. They whispered at one side, and someone ran to tell Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun rushed over when he heard the news and blocked Bai Ran behind him.

“Who are you? Why are you protecting her so much?” When the woman saw that someone was stirring up trouble, her expression had already calmed down a little.. It could be seen that she was a young woman with a good foundation.
