My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks

Chapter 85: 085 Snake Spotted_1

The two managers from ’Huatai’ did not immediately take the agreement, but cautiously said, "Let’s not rush into the agreement, we are staying in the Sheraton Hotel for the next two days. We want to experience the service of Sheraton first!"

Lin Xiangwan hooked up the corners of her mouth and gave a light smile. "Of course, it’s very appropriate for you to comprehend our hotel’s services first. However, I must point out that your CEO has been residing in our hotel lately. Would he continue to do so if the service was poor? Therefore, you need not worry too much. If the agreement is signed sooner, we can get started with the preparations..."

The manager from Huatai responded. "As subordinates, it’s inappropriate for us to speculate on why the CEO is staying here. We can only do our job. The observation period won’t be too long, just the next two days!"

Lin Xiangwan and Song Yichen looked at each other with disappointment; then, she stood up, maintaining her courteous demeanor and said, "Very well, after all, our hotel is not afraid of scrutiny. The more cautious you are, the more it proves the strength of our hotel!"

"Fine... then we shall go back now!" Both managers also rose to their feet.

Lin Xiangwan politely shook their hands one by one, smiling as she saw them off.

Once the office was quiet again, a touch of disappointment appeared on her face.

Song Yichen came up behind her and gently wrapped his arms around her. "Wanwan, I’m sorry about what happened today..."

"It’s for work, there’s no helping it!" she replied understandingly.

"I am glad that you understand," Song Yichen gazed intently at her profile. noveldrama

"Uh-huh..." she smiled outwardly, yet bitterness surged deep within.

She really wanted to ask him if such an insignificant negotiation really required ruining their marriage registration.

Song Yichen adjusted the glasses on his nose bridge. "Looking at my recent schedule, I won’t have time to return to B City this week!"

In other words, he wouldn’t be able to register their marriage in the near future.

With a shred of hope left, Lin Xiangwan was once again disappointed. "Work is more important!"

"Thank you!"

"So when will you have time, so I can arrange my work?" Lin Xiangwan asked, her heart beating wildly.

Song Yichen checked his agenda, his brow furrowed. "I’m afraid I owe you another apology. I won’t have time this month. As you know, once ’Huatai’ holds a banquet in our hotel, I’ll be even busier!"

"Well, I guess we’ll wait until you have time!"

Song Yichen offered with a guilty tone, "As a compensation, let’s have dinner together tonight. If you want to bring Ranran, you can. However, I was thinking of having someone accompany Ranran to do her homework and leave some private space for us two. What do you think?"

Lin Xiangwan’s mind was in a state of chaos, consumed by pain and melancholy that she could not articulate. She nodded haphazardly.

"That settles it. Let’s have a lovely evening, just the two of us!" Song Yichen announced, filled with anticipation.

"Alright!" Fearful of tearing up, Lin Xiangwan, in a hurry, picked up some documents. "I have some work to attend to; I’ll go out first!"

Without waiting for his response, she rushed out of the office.

After her departure, Song Yichen slumped back into his seat, devoid of expression.

The internal line rang. His secretary’s serene voice could be heard: "Mr. Song, do you want to cancel the meeting with Mr. Liu from ’Minghui Company’ tomorrow?"

Having taken a sip of coffee, Song Yichen replied nonchalantly, "Just cancel it. He’s not that important anyway!"

"Yes!"

"Also, cancel all my plans from this afternoon through tomorrow. I need a break!"

"Yes!"

After the call ended, Song Yichen sank heavily into his chair. The calculating coldness on his face was ruthless and sinister.

Wanwan... you are my woman. No matter what, I will have you...

.........

On her way back to the office, Lin Xiangwan ran into Ni Shanshan. Though she intended to pretend as if she hadn’t noticed and walk away, clearly, the other party had other plans.

Ni Shanshan held her chin high, looking down at her. "I heard that you and Mr. Song were planning to register for marriage today?"

" ... " Bringing this up made Lin Xiangwan feel suffocated.

"Why haven’t you left yet?" Ni Shanshan winked and asked, her face full of mockery. "Could it be that Mr. Song decided against marrying you at the last minute? Ms. Lin, this simply won’t do! How can a man run away just before the event. This only proves that he doesn’t love you!"

Though Lin Xiangwan knew she was being ridiculed, she felt she couldn’t afford to give others the chance to gloat over her misfortune. "

" ... Our work demanded our attention today, so we postponed the registration. That’s just a formality. So, whether it’s today, tomorrow, or some other day, it makes no difference. It’s bound to happen; why bother about a day or two?" Lin Xiangwan said, pretending not to care.

Ni Shanshan gritted her teeth, struggling to maintain her pleased smile. "Ms. Lin, you seem to trust Mr. Song very much!"

Lin Xiangwan smirked and said deliberately intimate, "Indeed, our feelings for each other are quite profound. So much so, that someone deliberately trying to drive a wedge between us wouldn’t be able to destroy what we have!"

The smile on Ni Shanshan’s face froze. She huffed, "Are you implying that I’m trying to sabotage your relationship with Mr. Song?"

"I didn’t say that!" Lin Xiangwan also lost her pretentious demeanor.

Ni Shanshan crossed her arms and shrugged, "Even if you said so, it wouldn’t matter, because that is my intention. Lin Xiangwan, I must tell you, marrying Song Yichen won’t be that easy. He never intended to marry you because he doesn’t like you..."

"You..." Lin Xiangwan wanted to retort.

"Hehe, if you don’t believe me, then just watch and see!" After her assertive declaration, she turned around and left.

"Ouch..." Ni Shanshan intentionally stroked her belly and cried out in pain.

Followed by a stumble, a piece of paper fell from her hand.

Lin Xiangwan didn’t bother to alert her and let Ni Shanshan hobble away.

She was ready to leave too, but the words ’Hospital Test Report’ on the paper attracted her attention. She bent down slowly and picked it up.

The phrase ’6 weeks +2 days pregnant’ made Lin Xiangwan take a deep breath.

Is Ni Shanshan pregnant? Who is the father of the child?

Could it be Song Yichen?

Lin Xiangwan quickly shook her head. No... it couldn’t be. If the baby was Song Yichen’s, Ni Shanshan would be flaunting it in front of her wouldn’t she?

If it were Song Yichen’s baby, she should have known already, wouldn’t she?

It can’t... it can’t be!

"Ms. Lin, please hurry to Presidential Suite 1209. There are snakes here, several of them..." exclaimed a worker from the Guest Room Department.

"How can there be snakes? Alright, alright, I will be right there!" Lin Xiangwan, regardless of her heartache and doubts, rushed towards the presidential suite.
