He sat on the chair, and she sat on his lap.
Their distance closed in just a blink of an eye.
Ran Xiangsi struggled to get up, but Xing Chen reached out his large hand and held her slender waist, pulling her closer.
"Ran Zhonghai wants you to marry Gu Beichuan in place of Ran Yingqian. Don’t you want to resolve this crisis?" He deliberately slowed down his speech, lowering his voice, making it sound uniquely husky and incredibly sexy!
Even his warm breath sprayed onto her face.
With such a close distance, just a look, or perhaps just an ambiguous breath, was enough to make anyone’s face turn red!
Ran Xiangsi’s gaze started to dart around uneasily, her face turning rosy, yet she still had to divide her attention to answer his question.
"Didn’t you say that as long as I agreed to marry you, you would help solve all this?" She clearly rembered what he said when he tricked her into signing the docunt!
Upon hearing her words, Xing Chen was montarily stunned, then he smiled, shalessly playing rogue, "As you know, my marriage needs to be kept secret, so I can’t tell them. Therefore, you have to solve this matter yourself."
If it ca to a real confrontation, Gu Beichuan was no match for Xing Chen. However, since this involved Ran Zhonghai’s family, Xing Chen had no intention of stepping in.
This matter had to be resolved by Ran Xiangsi herself.
Therefore, he decided to give her the initiative.
"You... how despicable! You tricked into signing, but in the end, I still have to handle it myself?" Ran Xiangsi finally understood what he ant by letting her order.
It turned out he wanted her to settle this matter herself!
It made her grind her teeth in anger...
"You can understand it that way. But this restaurant is mine, so you can have anyone handle it, and make it as big a deal as you want." He leaned back a little, watching the changing expressions on the woman in his arms with interest.
Listening to Xing Chen’s words, Ran Xiangsi also got a bit tempted.
Last ti, Ran Yingqian brought Tan Xinjie to trouble her, and she hadn’t yet taken her revenge.
Gu Beichuan’s wickedly focused gaze always revolving around her wasn’t a good thing, and Ran Xiangsi really disliked being treated like prey.
So... why not play with them?
Besides, it seed there was nothing much to do today.
Seeing Ran Xiangsi still hesitating, Xing Chen added indifferently, "If you want to live a peaceful life, you first need to learn to solve the troubles around you. Those with ans can live effortlessly."
What Xing Chen said wasn’t wrong. Those with ans had managed to stand at the top of the pyramid through their own skills.
Encouraged by what he said, Ran Xiangsi made up her mind.
"You said I could have anyone handle it? Then I want the president to deal with it, can you make that happen?" Although she agreed, she was still a bit annoyed about being set up, so she intentionally said sothing difficult to trouble him.
However, Xing Chen wasn’t concerned at all. Instead, he said, "The president is not easy, but I can get Li Guoliang to co over."
"Him? No way. If he finds out about my connection to the Ran Family, what if he goes and tells Lou Zhaonian? I can see that Lou Xinyu has her eyes set on you all the ti!" Ran Xiangsi decisively refused.
Li Guoliang was, after all, Lou Zhaonian’s subordinate, and he would definitely take Lou Zhaonian’s side.
Perhaps even Ran Xiangsi herself didn’t realize, when she ntioned Lou Xinyu, she was brimming with righteous indignation, afraid that Lou Xinyu would take away what originally belonged to her.
