Fallen To The Ruthless Obssessive CEO-Chapter 547 - 454_3

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

"The United Kingdom." Bao Ye said softly, "I’ve coordinated with a few new teams over there, planning to start new projects, and I need to personally handle the connections."

"You know, the Bao Group’s investment projects are never small, ranging from a few hundred million to several billion, so there’s some risk involved, but it’s all manageable."

Jiang Ruan naturally believed in his ability, and tightened her embrace around his waist, her nose filled with his scent, "Hmm."

"I’ll take you to the Bao Family Ancestral Hall when I return," Bao Ye said, "I was originally planning to take you next week, but now it seems a bit rushed."

"No hurry with that," Jiang Ruan hadn’t finished speaking before Bao Ye interrupted, "I’m in a hurry."

"It’s a tradition with the Bo family; the new bride must visit the Bao Family Ancestral Hall, meet the elders, and receive the blessings from the older generation of the Bo family before going to the civil affairs bureau to register."

Bao Ye’s magnetic voice slowly rang in her ears, making Jiang Ruan’s eyes widen, "Register?"

Oh my.

He’s already considered registering their marriage.

Jiang Ruan’s mind went blank instantly, or rather completely alert, "You want to register our marriage?"

She asked in shock, somewhat in disbelief.

Bao Ye chuckled lightly, "Is that surprising?"

He held her little hand, gradually interlocking their fingers.

"A bit," Jiang Ruan replied honestly, "Being with you for so long, I forgot about registration."

Because she never thought they would register their marriage.

When she was with him, she was completely unsure of everything.

In the past two years, her mind was occupied entirely with her career.

She wasn’t thinking about this at all, as she assumed their relationship might just be temporary.

Once he lost interest or got tired, that would be their breakup moment.

Besides, he’s Bao Ye, the CEO of Bao Group.

Don’t they always say a rich man can never have just one woman in his life, at least several, right? She never considered herself unique enough to be the only one in his heart.

She’s not that arrogant.

At this moment, Jiang Ruan felt like she was dreaming.

If it were truly a dream, she’d wish to never wake up this lifetime.

"Chen Nan once said, a normal romantic sequence for ordinary people is: confess, be together, date, meet the parents, register, engage, marry."

"We started straight away, which isn’t typical. As for meeting the family, you don’t have parents, so one day I’ll go with you to your hometown to pay respects to your uncle and aunt, tell them I’m marrying you, making you my wife. As for me, um... if you’d like to meet my mom, I can take you tomorrow; my dad isn’t really a parent."

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

She said, "Then forget it, I don’t want to meet your mom."

"She doesn’t like me; going would only be asking for humiliation. You know I have a sharp tongue—if I upset her into having a blood pressure spike, that wouldn’t be good."

Jiang Ruan spoke straightforwardly.

Bao Ye laughed, "Alright."

He loved her fiery pepper-like personality.

It’s unique.

—

In the morning, when Jiang Ruan was called up, her mind was spinning. With her messy bed-head, she sat on the bed, eyes closed staring at the ceiling.

Completely looked like someone not fully awake.

She muttered, "Is there an earthquake?"

"Why do I feel the ground shaking? So dizzy."

Bao Ye had already freshened up and changed his clothes. Hearing this, he said with concern, "Just go back to sleep, I’ll handle things with Sister Qin."

"We don’t need the money."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruan considered compromising for a moment.

But then she thought about work, thought about how the people at the company had been busy planning for her these days.

If she doesn’t go in the morning, their effort would be in vain.

Jiang Ruan felt guilty. She ruffled her hair.

Ultimately, she opened her eyes, "No, I’m not tired."

Only to see Bao Ye, looking refreshed, tying his tie; he changed the color today, a complete deep brown suit.

Formal yet adding a touch of gentle gentleman.

Only his face remained cold and aloof.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan couldn’t help questioning life, "Why aren’t you tired?"

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

Being questioned, Bao Ye looked over and said, "My sleep duration has always been short; two hours is enough for me."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Is this human?

Two hours are enough for sleep?

This made Jiang Ruan recall his past medication use for insomnia, instantly making her alert. She climbed out of bed.

Heading towards him, her face was somewhat odd, "Are you still taking those pills now?"

Suddenly being asked, Bao Ye paused momentarily, "What pills?"

She explained, "The pills for your insomnia and headaches at night, similar to sleeping pills." Jiang Ruan furrowed her brows, feeling guilty. "I’m really stupid; how could I forget this. Are you still sleepless at night?"

Only then did Bao Ye understand, he laughed softly.
