As soon as Zhen Yu said that, Ji Mingshu whispered, “Zhen Yu, what makes you think they’re husband and wife? It looks like they’re lovers, but that woman is probably a mistress!”
As soon as Ji Mingshu said that, Zhen Yu stared at her in disbelief. It could be said that Chi Shuyan’s understanding of Ji Mingshu was renewed; this young lady indeed had keen eyesight.
Seeing Shuyan’s expression and confirming that the couple not far away were really a mistress and a scumbag, Zhen Yu secretly cursed, “Shameless.”
At that moment, Jiang Li’s face stiffened when she saw that Chi Shuyan had also recognized her. In particular, when she thought of her connection to the Yu family, Jiang Li felt guilty. Afraid that Chi Shuyan would see the man next to her and tell the Yu family, she immediately pretended not to see Chi Shuyan and hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that the man next to Jiang Li was Yu Wei’s husband. She couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to Jiang Li leaving. It was just that seeing Jiang Li reminded her of Teacher Yu’s sister’s pregnancy. However, she thought about what she had said before: When the time came for another pregnancy checkup, the Yu family should look for her.
At that moment, Ji Mingshu asked again, “Shuyan, are you really not going to buy clothes or try them on? It’s fine to try them even if you don’t have a boyfriend!”
Zhen Yu was a bit stupefied when she heard Ji Mingshu say that Shuyan didn’t have a boyfriend. Could it be that something had really happened between Shuyan and President Qi?
Yang Lan had also said that Shuyan probably wouldn’t be able to marry into the Qi family. She even mocked and cracked jokes about it. Zhen Yu hadn’t liked Yang Lan’s tone when she said that.
Zhen Yu always remembered that if it wasn’t for Shuyan, something would have happened to her and Yang Lan long ago. She just wanted Shuyan to do well. As for Yang Lan, she always felt that she had changed a little recently and yet not.
Zhen Yu wanted to take advantage of the moment when Ji Mingshu went to try on clothes again to say a few words to Shuyan, when Shuyan’s phone suddenly rang.
She could only watch Shuyan answer the phone.
Chi Shuyan took out her phone and saw a familiar number on the screen. She subconsciously wanted to hang up, but given Qi Zhenbai’s character, he would probably call until she picked up.
Chi Shuyan could only answer the call at that moment. Not long after, the man’s deep and magnetic voice rang out. “Where are you? I’m outside your school!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t want to agitate him for the next few days. Thinking of how this man had suddenly gone crazy last night, she still felt lingering fear. In fact, she didn’t want to bother with him for the time being. She just hoped that he could calm down and not contact her for the next few days.
It was fine as long as this man didn’t go crazy the next time they met.
She didn’t really want to talk to this man, and had nothing to say. That was what she thought, but she could only say, “I’m shopping with friends. I’m not free right now!”
She just hoped that after she said that, the man would go back to wherever and not make his presence known to her.
But the more she didn’t want something to happen, the more likely it was to happen. The man changed the subject and said forcefully, “Give me the address, I’ll pick you up!”
If it were in the past, she wouldn’t have minded the man’s domineering tone, but now, she was quite annoyed.
She immediately refused and said politely, “No need, we’re walking around! There’s no need to trouble you!”
After she said that, the man on the other end was silent for a long time. Thinking of how the man had gone crazy last night, Chi Shuyan’s right eyelid subconsciously twitched. She was a little afraid and hurriedly added, “There’s really no need to trouble yourself. I’ll be back soon!”
“Address!” the man spat out coldly.
Chi Shuyan sneered inwardly and wanted to ignore him and hang up. In the end, however, she was honest and gave him the address, and despised herself for being a coward.
But even if she didn’t say anything, this man would still be able to find her, which was bound to complicate things.
She consoled herself and told herself to endure for a few days. It wouldn’t be too late to sort things out once he returned to normal; she could endure it.
She had just told Ji Mingshu and Zhen Yu that she didn’t have a boyfriend. If the two of them saw Qi Zhenbai now, wouldn’t that create a misunderstanding? She wouldn’t be able to explain herself.
In any case, she couldn’t be bothered to talk about personal matters.
In the end, Chi Shuyan decisively found an excuse to leave first. Zhen Yu and Ji Mingshu had hit it off at first sight, so they weren’t disappointed by Shuyan’s sudden departure. They just thought that she had something important to do, so they told her to go and do her thing.
Chi Shuyan patted her two friends’ shoulders and told them to take their time shopping before she left.
Not long after she walked out of the mall, a black, inconspicuous car stopped next to her. The window rolled down, and the man’s familiar and handsome face was quickly revealed.
Qi Zhenbai’s eyes lit up when he saw his wife standing on the side. It was just that his emotions were restrained and no one could see any of it.
The man instructed in a deep voice, “Get in!”
Chi Shuyan originally didn’t plan to get into his car, but when she thought about how Ji Mingshu and Zhen Yu were both in the mall and might come out at any moment, she had no choice but to do so.
As she got into the car, she took an extra look at the man’s cold expression.
If this man’s mood was off, she would leave first. At that moment, she saw that he was very calm and collected. He wasn’t as moody as last night. Although his eyes were deep, she could tell that he was in a good mood today.
As soon as Chi Shuyan got into the car, the tall man beside her immediately grabbed her hand.
Because of what happened last night, Chi Shuyan was a little traumatized by the man holding her hand. She subconsciously wanted to pull away, but the man gripped her hand tightly.
When their hands touched, Chi Shuyan’s heart still trembled, but she quickly regained her composure and deliberately said, “Doesn’t it feel hot?”
In other words, why were they holding hands now?
She didn’t want to hold his hand at all.
Qi Zhenbai was relaxed and enjoyed holding his wife’s hand. He had subconsciously forgotten about their cold war and the “breakup” he had mentioned before.
He didn’t know if it was because of Assistant Zhu’s words about his wife crying very pitifully, but the knot in his heart was completely undone, and he understood now how much his wife cared for him.
Qi Zhenbai thought of Assistant Zhu’s words and looked at his wife’s delicate little face which was occasionally lit up by the neon lights outside.
It was this delicate and lovely little face that had cried fiercely for him.
He had thought about this all night and early this morning. The more he thought about it, the more happy he became. At the same time, his heart softened tremendously. He was happy, but at the same time, his heart ached terribly. It wasn’t long before he remembered that another man had seen his wife cry. The man’s intense possessiveness made him frown. In the end, his heart softened and his heart ached for her. The man suddenly said, “Don’t cry in the future. If you want to cry, you can only cry in front of me. In the future, I’ll listen to you and keep my distance from other women!”
Chi Shuyan: …
