Fallen To The Ruthless Obssessive CEO-Chapter 553 - 456:

She turned her head and asked him, "Where are you going on a business trip?"

"The United Kingdom." Bao Ye said softly: "I’ve reached out to a few new teams over there, planning to start a new project, and need to handle it personally."

"You know that the Bao Family’s investments are never small, ranging from tens of millions to several billion, so there are certain risks, but there’s nothing to worry about."

Jiang Ruan naturally believed in his abilities, holding the man’s waist tightly, her nose surrounded by his scent: "Mm."

"I’ll take you to the Bao Family Ancestral Hall when I return." Bao Ye said: "I originally wanted to take you there next week, but it looks like time is a bit tight now."

"This isn’t urgent." Jiang Ruan started to say, but Bao Ye interrupted: "I’m in a hurry."

"There’s a tradition in the Bao Family: the new daughter-in-law must go to the ancestral hall, meet the elders, and receive their blessings before receiving the marriage certificate at the civil affairs bureau."

Bao Ye’s magnetic voice gently sounded by her ear, making Jiang Ruan widen her eyes: "Marriage certificate?"

Oh my.

He was already thinking of the two getting their marriage certificate.

Jiang Ruan’s mind was blank for a moment, to be precise, she was completely awake: "You want to get the marriage certificate with me?"

She asked in shock, even feeling a bit incredulous.

Bao Ye laughed in disbelief: "Is that so unexpected?"

He held her small hand, gradually intertwining their fingers.

"A bit." Jiang Ruan admitted truthfully: "Being with you for so long, I forgot about the marriage certificate part."

Because she never thought about getting the marriage certificate.

When she was with him, she was completely lost.

The first couple of years, her thoughts were entirely focused on work.

It was even less likely for her to think about this because she thought their relationship might just be temporary.

She thought that whenever he was no longer interested in her or got bored, that would be when they broke up.

Besides, he is Bao Ye, the CEO of Bao Group.

People always said that wealthy men will never have only one woman in their lives, at least several of them. She never thought she was unique enough to be the only one in his heart.

She wasn’t arrogant.

At this moment, Jiang Ruan felt as though she were dreaming.

If it really is a dream, she wishes never to wake up.

"Chen Nan said the normal dating sequence for ordinary people is: confess, be together, date, meet the parents, get the marriage certificate, get engaged, get married."

"We got together directly, so it probably wasn’t normal. As for meeting the parents, you don’t have parents. Someday I’ll accompany you back to your hometown to pay respects to your uncle and aunt and tell them I want to marry you, make you my wife. As for my side, um... if you want to meet my mom, I can take you tomorrow. You don’t need to meet my dad; he’s not considered one of my parents."

Beside her was Bao Ye’s voice, Jiang Ruan took a deep breath to calm herself.

She said: "Well, let’s not. I don’t want to meet your mom."

"She doesn’t like me. Going would humiliate myself, you know, my mouth isn’t easy either. If I make her high blood pressure flare up, it wouldn’t be good." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Jiang Ruan stated bluntly.

Bao Ye laughed: "Alright."

He liked this feisty personality of hers.

Full of character.

—

In the morning, when Jiang Ruan was woken up, her mind was spinning. She sat on the bed with her tangled hair like a bird’s nest, her eyes closed, staring at the ceiling.

She completely looked like someone who hadn’t woken up yet.

She mumbled: "Was there an earthquake?"

"Why do I feel the ground shaking? I’m dizzy."

Bao Ye had already washed up and changed his clothes. Hearing this, he felt sorry for her: "Go back to sleep, I’ll handle Sister Qin."

"We don’t lack that little bit of money."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruan felt for a moment like compromising.

But then she thought about the work, how the company was busy these days preparing and planning for her.

Not going in the morning would mean making their efforts go to waste.

Jiang Ruan felt a sense of guilt and rubbed her hair.

She eventually opened her eyes: "No, I’m not sleepy."

She saw Bao Ye looking refreshed while tying his tie, which was a different color today, a complete deep brown suit.

Formal yet added a touch of gentlemanly warmth.

Only that face remained as cold as ever.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan couldn’t help but doubt life: "Why aren’t you sleepy?"

"Obviously, we slept the same amount of time?"

Asked, Bao Ye looked over and said: "My sleep duration is always short, two hours is enough for me."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Is this a human?

Two hours is enough sleep?

This reminded Jiang Ruan of when he used to take medicine, instantly making her alert and she climbed out of bed.

Going up to him, her expression was a bit strange: "Are you still... taking those meds now?"

Suddenly asked, Bao Ye froze for a moment: "What medicine?"

"The one you take when you can’t sleep at night, similar to sleeping pills." Jiang Ruan frowned, feeling a bit guilty: "I’m really dumb, how could I forget that? Are you still unable to sleep at night?"

It was then Bao Ye realized, and he chuckled lightly.
