What's wrong with being a salted fish?

"Oh my god, sister. This is the first time I see your husband in person. He's so handsome! He's way better than Xu Wenhao, okay?" After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Wan Linlin grabbed Lin Zhuo's arm and shook it wildly.

With those long legs, the inverted triangle figure and the handsome face, Wan Linlin really wanted to say to Xu Wenhao: It’s not impossible to find someone else to take the male lead’s position.

"A villain who can rival the male protagonist must be presentable." Although this man's appearance is very different from the impression she had of her cheap husband.

Lin Zhuo couldn't help but wonder if Yu Jingli had ulterior motives in every world.

"Don't lie to me. I remember very clearly that there is no comparison between Duan Yunqi and Xu Wenhao as described by the author." Wan Linlin's eyes lit up: "Come on, Xu Wenhao is just a younger brother in front of him."

"Let's not talk about this for now. What did you yell at me for?"

Wan Linlin said seriously: "Sister, you and I are the same, it's appropriate to call each other sisters!"

“…”Okay, okay, he was speechless.

Lin Zhuo talked a lot and finally said helplessly that as long as Wan Linlin was happy.

Then Lin Zhuo asked her if she had a place to live. After all, Lin Zhuo still remembered that she said the windows of her house were leaking. After taking the breakup fee given by Xu Wenhao's mother, she definitely could not live with Xu Wenhao anymore.

Wan Linlin patted her pockets and said that she would stay in a hotel for the next two days and then look for a house after two days.

Seeing that she had made arrangements for herself, Lin Zhuo didn't say anything. After accompanying her to find a reliable hotel to stay in, Lin Zhuo took a taxi back to his residence.

Duan Yunqi had not returned when Lin Zhuo got home. After answering Uncle Tian that he did not eat desserts, Lin Zhuo took a comfortable bath and then lay down on the bed.

Not to mention, he was already a little tired after just one day in this world, so now was a good time to take a nap.

At this time, Lin Zhuo was sincerely grateful for the setting of this world. Duan Yunqi was a chaste man and even gave the master bedroom to him, while he himself rested in the guest bedroom.

Because for Duan Yunqi, it didn't matter where he rested, he was not picky; at the same time, he understood that he had to be nicer to his wife, so he gave the master bedroom to Lin Zhuo.

Fortunately, we slept in separate rooms, otherwise Duan Yunqi would have woken me up when he came back.

After saying good night to 0617, Lin Zhuo fell into a sweet dream.

When Duan Yunqi came back, looking tired and smelling like hot pot, Uncle Tian just went to greet him when he heard Duan Yunqi ask, "Where is he?"

Uncle Tian was stunned for a moment, then he reacted: "Xiao Zhuo? He's already asleep."

"Xiao Zhuo?" Duan Yunqi muttered.

It's no wonder that Duan Yunqi was a little surprised. After all, the way Lin Zhuo asked Uncle Tian to call him Madam when she just came in was something Duan Yunqi could never forget.

"He asked you to scream like that?"

Uncle Tian nodded: "Xiao Zhuo is a good boy."

"..."

Duan Yunqi didn’t know where Uncle Tian got this filter, but he didn’t want to argue. He said hello and went upstairs.

After taking a shower, Duan Yunqi wrapped in a bath towel came to the cloakroom in the master bedroom. He entered the cloakroom from another door in the corridor.

This is how Lin Zhuo has been holding his clothes since he entered the room.

But today, after Duan Yunqi chose his clothes, he was not in a hurry to leave. He hesitated for a long time, and finally quietly opened the door connecting the cloakroom to the master bedroom.

The master bedroom where Lin Zhuo slept was actually a small suite. The door of the cloakroom was more convenient to enter than the door of the master bedroom, but the two of them had a tacit understanding and each had his own door, never disturbing each other.

This was the first time that Duan Yunqi had stepped into the house that originally belonged to Lin Zhuo since he entered the house.

When he entered, Lin Zhuo was sleeping very soundly, and even when Duan Yunqi walked over to the bed and sat down, he could not be woken up.

Lin Zhuo was sleeping on his side, his handsome eyebrows slightly wrinkled; he was mumbling with a very small sound, he seemed to still be a little hot, with one arm stretched out.

Duan Yunqi reached out and touched his arm outside the quilt, and sure enough, it was ice cold.

Duan Yunqi sighed, took Lin Zhuo's arm back, and then covered him with the quilt.

He looked at Lin Zhuo's sleeping face, feeling a little confused. He didn't know what happened to him tonight. After coming back, he especially wanted to take a good look at him, even though he and Lin Zhuo had been together for more than a month.

Ever since they met at the hotpot restaurant, Duan Yunqi had inexplicably felt that Lin Zhuo seemed different, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different.

Maybe he is more clever than before? When we met tonight, the turbidity in his eyes was gone, like a transparent gem.

Very strange feeling.

Duan Yunqi touched his chest and thought.

But he should leave now. If Lin Zhuo wakes up and sees him, he will not be able to explain himself.

......

"Good morning, sir."

When Duan Yunqi went downstairs to eat, Uncle Tian greeted him.

Duan Yunqi nodded: "Is he up?"

I don’t know if it was to please me, but as long as I was at home, Lin Zhuo would definitely have dinner with me, rain or shine.

"Uh..." Uncle Tian hesitated.

"what happened?"

"Xiao Zhuo has already gone out." Uncle Tian said with his head down.

"At this hour? He's already gone out?"

I haven't even gone to work yet, but Lin Zhuo has already left? Why? Isn't he going to have breakfast with me today?

"He said he had an appointment with a friend."

Duan Yunqi didn't say anything, sat down at his seat and started eating.

It's better without him, it seems quieter.

Duan Yunqi seemed to be in a bad mood, and Uncle Tian didn't dare to disturb him. The restaurant was silent for a while.

Suddenly, Duan Yunqi clenched the chopsticks in his hand: Friend? Is it his friends or the lady from yesterday?

For the first time, Duan Yunqi felt that his breakfast was tasteless.

......

"My dear lady, why are you calling me to go out so early in the morning? I'm so sleepy." Lin Zhuo followed behind Wan Linlin like a wronged ghost, yawning from time to time.

Wan Linlin woke me up from bed early in the morning with a phone call, and then hurriedly asked me to go out, so I didn't even have time to eat breakfast.

"I'm just thinking about changing my clothes now that I have money!" Wan Linlin said as she pulled Lin Zhuo towards the breakfast shop near the hotel: "Seeing you like this, I'll treat you to breakfast."

"You are so kind. Thank you." Lin Zhuo was speechless, but his body still followed Wan Linlin honestly, because he was really hungry.

The two of them went into a noodle restaurant. Lin Zhuo ordered a bowl of beef noodles, Wan Linlin ordered a bowl of three-fresh noodles, a basket of steamed dumplings and two buns.

"Won't Xu Wenhao give you food?" You're eating so much this early in the morning? Aren't you afraid of being full?

After Wan Linlin ordered, she was waiting for her meal with great joy. But after hearing Lin Zhuo's words, the smile on her face immediately fell: "You don't know, Xu Wenhao said that Bai Li has a small stomach and can't eat much in one meal, so he asked me not to eat too much, and the meals are mostly vegetarian."

At this point, Wan Linlin couldn't help but cover her face and pretend to cry: "Wow, he's not a human being. I'm a carnivore and he actually asked me to eat grass! Who can tolerate this?"

Lin Zhuo couldn't help but hold his forehead when he heard her complain: "Can we talk nicely? If you say that, the boss will think I'm abusing you and will keep looking over here."

"Sorry." Wan Linlin opened her hands and smiled embarrassedly. She was just complaining and didn't mean to cause trouble for Lin Zhuo.

When Wan Linlin saw Lin Zhuo, she felt that she had met him too late. From yesterday to today, she had been complaining to Lin Zhuo.

But Lin Zhuo was really not in the mood today and felt drowsy after listening. Fortunately, the boss brought up what they ordered after a while.

The soup was garnished with chopped green onions and coriander. The aroma awakened Lin Zhuo's brain. He quickly took a sip and found that it was really delicious.

It’s delicious!

After taking a few bites, Lin Zhuo realized that he didn't seem to hear Wan Linlin's voice. He looked up and saw that Wan Linlin was busy eating noodles and had no time to pay attention to him.

Lin Zhuo laughed. It was obvious from the way she looked that she was extremely frustrated with Xu Wenhao.

After dinner, Wan Linlin took Lin Zhuo straight to the mall.

She must change her clothes today. After all, she is a pretty beauty. She can't stand wearing such plain clothes every day!

Seeing her look like she was going to take the mall by storm, Lin Zhuo couldn't help but ask that nonsense question again: "Doesn't Xu Wenhao even buy clothes for you?"

Wan Linlin turned around with a sad face and said in a sad tone, as if imitating Xu Wenhao's tone: "She likes plainness and looks pure."

Wan Linlin spat fiercely on the ground while speaking: "I seriously suspect that this scumbag has no idea about Bai Li's preferences, he just thinks he knows!"

She pretended to open the closet: "Do you know how speechless I was when I opened the closet and found all the clothes were white? I thought there was a funeral in his family!"

"......" Don't say, there is a picture.

What could Lin Zhuo say? He could only express his deep sympathy and then follow Wan Linlin around the shop.

Wan Linlin was like a fish in water, moving flexibly between the shelves, selecting things back and forth, looking like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

While she was trying them on, Lin Zhuo dozed off on the sofa in the lounge area.

He felt that Wan Linlin just didn't want to go shopping alone, so she called him out early in the morning.

When Lin Zhuo had time, he would take a look at Wan Linlin's situation. She had changed her light-colored clothes and put on a fiery red dress, and her whole aura immediately changed.

"How is it? Does it look good?" Wan Linlin turned around twice in front of the fitting mirror. She was very satisfied with herself, but still wanted to hear Lin Zhuo's evaluation.

Lin Zhuo nodded: "It suits you very well."

Wan Linlin looks so bold and confident in this red dress that it's really hard to take your eyes off her.

While the two were discussing clothing styles, someone not far away took a sneak shot of them.

If Lin Zhuo saw the person taking the photo, he would realize that this was the boy who greeted him yesterday and called Duan Yunqi "brother".

After taking the photo, the boy immediately lowered his head and started fiddling with his phone.

【Moses Moses! 】

Duan Yunqi was listening to his secretary report on today's work arrangements when he looked down and saw a message pop up on his phone. He was a little confused. What did this guy want to talk to him about so early in the morning?

【? 】

[Brother, I saw my sister-in-law! ]

【Photo】

【With the beautiful lady from yesterday! 】

Duan Yunqi unconsciously clenched his phone when he saw the photo. Although he guessed that Lin Zhuo was most likely going out with this person, when he saw it with his own eyes, he still unconsciously took a deep breath.

Are they that close?

As people from the same circle, Duan Yunqi had naturally heard that Xu Wenhao had a mistress by his side, and occasionally he would see her and Xu Wenhao appear together at different cocktail parties.

But Duan Yunqi never expected that the other party would have any dealings with his nominal wife.

He couldn't help but think about the dark side. Did she have a conflict with Xu Wenhao, so she wanted to find Lin Zhuo as her next employer?

Duan Yunqi leaned back in the boss chair and rubbed his forehead. He felt something was not right. Lin Zhuo had been supported by himself and was a pure No. 0. Why would he choose to get entangled with a woman?

Seeing that he looked a little upset, the secretary left in a hurry after reporting. He didn't want to offend his boss.

At the same time, Duan Yunqi's phone kept popping up messages.

【elder brother? 】

【Brother, where are you? 】

[If you ignore me, I will go play with my sister-in-law, right? ]

At this point, there is no next message.

Duan Yunqi was about to ask the other party for the address when he suddenly came to his senses.

What does it matter to me who Lin Zhuo is with? The other person also has his own friends and circles, and that is not something I can interfere with.

After all, the two of them were just strangers with a marriage certificate. Lin Zhuo had no obligation to report to me who he was with or what he was doing. I was just being too picky.

Duan Yunqi tapped his fingers slowly on the table. Ever since he met Lin Zhuo yesterday, he felt something was not right with him. This had never happened before.

Could it be that I have been bewitched?

The boy on the other side didn't care that Duan Yunqi didn't reply to the message. He was used to his brother being like this.

The boy put away his phone and was about to go over to say hello to Lin Zhuo, but at this moment he heard his phone ding.

He took it out and looked at it, grinning, and he knew his brother couldn't help himself.

The message displayed on the phone was from Duan Yunqi: [Where are you? ]

......

"What do you think of this set?"

Wan Linlin changed into a beige suit, which made her look gentle and lovely, like a real intellectual beauty.

Lin Zhuo was already a little tired of watching. He didn't quite understand where Wan Linlin got so much energy from, but he still gave a serious evaluation.

"It looks nice and complements your figure. It's just right for this weather. But the only downside is that I think the skirt is a little short."

Wan Linlin looked down at the hem of her skirt and agreed: "I feel the same way. I always feel empty."

"I think it would be a good idea for you to find some long skirts. You have long and slender legs, and long skirts will look very elegant on you."

Lin Zhuo's words made Wan Linlin excited again: "Wait a minute, I'll pick out a few longer ones!"

Lin Zhuo nodded tiredly and said, "Okay, you can choose. As long as you don't have to walk, it's fine. He can't walk at all now anyway."

At this moment, a male voice suddenly came from the side: "Linlin, why are you here?"

Lin Zhuo and Wan Linlin looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a suit and tie with a young and beautiful lady.

Wan Linlin rolled her eyes without disguising herself, and whispered to Lin Zhuo, "Xu Wenhao."

Lin Zhuo looked at the man who came. He was tall, strong, with deep eyes and brows. Although he was not as handsome as Duan Yunqi, he was still a handsome guy.

Lin Zhuo was just about to ask Wan Linlin who she was when he heard Wan Linlin say that the other person was Xu Wenhao. Lin Zhuo felt mixed emotions.

Wow, that's wilted, in every sense of the word.
