Quick Wear: Reversing Life
Chapter 16: Desperate Housewives’ Counterattack (16)
Rong Zekai came over at this time, put his arm around Xue Mingying and shook his glass: "What are you talking about?"
Xue Mingying's face turned pale and he said nothing.
Liu Xinyan smiled slightly. "Nothing much. Just talking about Cheng Yu's purge of the company some time ago. I heard that there was a quality control manager named Tan, who was in a relatively low position but actually embezzled tens of millions of yuan. Fortunately, he was caught."
When Xue Mingying heard the name "Tan", her face turned pale again. She raised her eyes and looked at Liu Xinyan. The contempt and disdain in her eyes were gone, replaced by fear of the unknown.
She didn't dare to bet on how much Liu Xinyan knew.
She knew about Tan Bin, but not many people knew that Tan Bin had a brother-in-law named Wang Hu who was her family's driver, not even Rong Zekai.
Wang Hu is a retired veteran who is now responsible for driving her. In addition to driving, he also does some errands for her.
When Wang Hu was recruited, it was because of the relationship with Tan Bin, and he thought that the relationship with Cheng Yu could be further improved.
Rong Zekai didn't know about these things. If he knew, he would probably quarrel with her and take the opportunity to threaten her to get benefits for his illegitimate son.
No! Absolutely not! Let Rong Zekai know!
Xue Mingying quickly held Rong Zekai's hand and pretended to be calm, saying, "It's nothing, honey, let's go. Mom sent me a message saying she's not feeling well."
Although Rong Zekai is a bastard, he is a very filial son.
"Really?" Rong Zekai took it seriously after hearing it, frowned, and casually placed the wine glass on the standing table beside him.
After the couple left, only Chang Ling and Liu Xinyan were left.
Chang Ling looked at Liu Xinyan with a wary look. As expected, her initial feeling that this woman was not simple was not an illusion. The person who could scare Xue Mingying to this extent was definitely not an ordinary person.
Cheng Yu, who had just finished a conversation with someone, turned around to look for Liu Xinyan, and saw Liu Xinyan and Chang Ling standing in front of the wine table not far away, talking about something.
He frowned. For some reason, he didn't want Liu Xinyan and Chang Ling to stay together.
So he nodded to the person next to him and walked towards the two of them.
Chang Ling didn't know what to say at the moment, and Liu Xinyan didn't take the initiative to speak. The two stood together drinking, and the atmosphere was more harmonious than before.
Seeing Cheng Yu coming over, Liu Xinyan picked up a glass of white wine from the table and handed it to Cheng Yu.
Chang Ling saw this and subconsciously stopped him: "He's allergic to grapes—"
Liu Xinyan paused and looked at Chang Ling.
Chang Ling also realized that what she said was inappropriate, but it was impossible to take back what was said. She knew that she had said too much and made mistakes, so she simply shut her mouth.
Cheng Yu also heard it, but he looked at Liu Xinyan with doubt in his eyes.
After seventeen years of marriage, his wife didn't even know that he was allergic to grapes, and he naturally didn't drink wine made from grapes.
There were already many people around paying attention to Liu Xinyan and Chang Ling.
The gathering of new and old lovers has always been a favorite topic for the public.
Chairman Cheng’s wife actually didn’t know that Chairman Cheng didn’t drink wine. This is something that everyone who has dealt with the Cheng family knows.
Cheng Yu stood there, staring at Liu Xinyan with no expression.
Chang Ling couldn't tell whether Cheng Yu was angry or not, and looked at Liu Xinyan again, thinking that she had offended Liu Xinyan this time.
But Liu Xinyan blinked and looked calm: "Really? I drank too much some time ago, and we kissed without you feeling uncomfortable."
......
Deathly silence.
Chang Ling was the closest, and was stunned after hearing this.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like for Cheng Yu, who seemed gentle but was actually cold, to kiss her. Besides, these two had been married for almost seventeen or eighteen years, right?
Liu Xinyan didn't lower her voice when she spoke.
Some older entrepreneurs nearby also heard it.
Someone was secretly evaluating Cheng Yu.
I never expected that Cheng Yu, who never lets beautiful women accompany him when he socializes with them, is not an old-fashioned person. It's just that those beautiful women are not as pretty as his wife! Haven't you seen that they are still kissing after being married for almost 20 years?
Cheng Yu: ...
When will this bad habit of speaking without restraint be changed?
He said to Liu Xinyan expressionlessly, "That's because you drank honey water and brushed your teeth."
"Really?" Liu Xinyan gave him a playful look.
Everyone around was looking at this side, and Chang Ling walked away quietly with some embarrassment.
Cheng Yu glanced around and turned away all the inquiring eyes.
Seeing that no one was watching this side, Liu Xinyan moved closer, with her hand still resting on the table, pressing the bottom of the wine glass and shaking it.
She lowered her voice and breathed out to Cheng Yu: "Do you want to try it now? See if you are allergic?"
The smell of alcohol hit Cheng Yu's face. Although he didn't like it, he could do nothing about it.
"Stop making trouble, there are so many people watching."
Old-fashioned Cheng Yu didn't like being the subject of other people's after-dinner gossip and looked at his wife helplessly.
Liu Xinyan chuckled: "Oh, then we can just go home?"
Cheng Yu: ...
Cheng Yu sighed.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore, let's go."
It was really boring with so many people around, so after teasing him, Liu Xinyan walked away on her own.
...
After the banquet, Liu Xinyan was sitting in the car. When Cheng Yu got in, he saw her video chatting with Cheng Hao.
"When will you finish?" He had been gone for about a month.
There is a five-hour time difference between Finland and China. It is still four o'clock in the afternoon there. I am visiting historical buildings in Turku.
Seeing Cheng Hao wrapped himself up like a bear, Liu Xinyan was amused, which attracted Lin Yusheng next to Cheng Hao to come over and look at the screen.
By the way, I also saw Lin Yusheng’s parents tonight, but we just said hello and chatted for a few minutes.
"It should be two or three days away. This is already the last stop of the itinerary."
"Okay, got it." Liu Xinyan thought she would be spending the New Year outside, and said, "Be careful outside and listen to the teacher."
Seeing Cheng Yu get in the car, Liu Xinyan said, "Your dad is here too. Do you want to say a few words to him?"
"Have you been drinking again?" Cheng Hao stared at the screen and saw Liu Xinyan's flushed face.
Liu Xinyan moved the phone in front of Cheng Yu, and a close-up view of Cheng Yu's face immediately appeared on Cheng Hao's phone screen.
Cheng Yu had nothing to say and didn't know what to say.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yu took out a box from the car cabinet and handed it to Liu Xinyan.
"Happy seventeenth anniversary."
Liu Xinyan took the box and then remembered that today was their seventeenth wedding anniversary. She had completely forgotten about it and naturally hadn't prepared a gift for Cheng Yu.
Liu Xinyan opened the box, and inside was a sparkling diamond necklace. The shape was a bit like the laurel crown worn by the Laurel Queen, except that the leaves looked like willow leaves.
In the middle hangs a teardrop-shaped jadeite with a glassy texture, rich color, translucent luster, without a trace of impurities, and a ring setting surrounded by diamonds.
Jade has always been the favorite jewelry of older ladies, and imperial green is the standard for top wealthy women.
As long as you are a woman, it is impossible not to like this kind of shiny thing.
Liu Xinyan picked it up, pulled the collar of the skirt down slightly, put it around her neck, turned sideways to look at the car window, and her shadow was reflected on the window.
The translucent green emits a silvery glow. As the vehicles pass by, the flashing street lights illuminate and extinguish it, but no matter how the lights shake, it cannot affect its beauty.
Liu Xinyan was very satisfied with the gift, and naturally did not hesitate to show her kindness.
"Thank you, husband. I like this gift very much." Liu Xinyan approached Cheng Yu with a sweet smile.
It seems that women really like customized gifts.
After all, his wife rarely spoke to him in such a sweet voice.
Cheng Yu lowered his head and saw that she had one hand on the leather seat, the emerald sparkling on her neck, but his eyes were always on her face and did not move away.
"Now, do you want to try it?"
Liu Xinyan blew a breath at him, with a hook in her eyes and her cheeks flushed like a red apple in the Garden of Eden.
And now it is Eve who is tempting Adam to taste the grapes.
Cheng Yu lowered his head and took it into his mouth, and as he wished, he tasted the aroma of wine on the other person's tongue.
During a pause for breath, Liu Xinyan asked, "Did you taste it?"
"Yeah, sweet."
Even though I didn't drink any alcohol, I felt like the air I breathed was full of yeast factors.
Cheng Yu felt like he was a little drunk.
Liu Xinyan smiled softly.
"Isn't it going to happen soon?"
As Liu Xinyan spoke, her hands were not honest, moving up from Cheng Yu's palm and reaching into his sleeves.
Her fingertips slid across his pulse, following the protruding tendons and bones, and moved up little by little.
Unfortunately, the space in the cuffs was limited, and before he could move up, he was suddenly stopped by Cheng Yu's right hand.
"What's wrong? I just want to feel if I have any allergies-"
Their lips were still pressed together, and Liu Xinyan wanted to say something, but Cheng Yu suddenly grabbed her and pressed her down on the seat.
"What are you doing? We're in the car." Liu Xinyan widened her eyes and pulled her hand but failed to move.
"You know this is in the car."
The man's voice was hoarse and his breathing was much heavier than usual. The warm air he exhaled warmed Liu Xinyan's ears and neck.
Cheng Yu felt like a piano, relying on the hands of the performer to activate the rhythm of his body.
He was now numb all over and could only rely on breathing to adjust his condition. Unfortunately, the person under him was not a quiet person and kept moving his body to break free from the restraints.
"Why don't you learn your lesson?"
Cheng Yu freed one hand to hold her waist, which was moving back and forth, "Don't move, or do you want to give Cheng Hao a sister?"
There are no family planning supplies in the car.
Liu Xinyan: ...
"Fuck you! You're so heavy, get up!"
After all the trouble, Liu Xinyan's hair was messy. She wanted to take off the hairpin on her head, but she was clumsy and hurt herself.
Seeing this, Cheng Yu, who had calmed down, took out the clip for her and tidied up her messy hair. There was no comb in the car, so he straightened it out bit by bit with his hands.
It was indeed comfortable to have someone serving her, and Liu Xinyan even felt a little sleepy.
Seeing her yawning in an unruly manner, Cheng Yu lowered the lights in the car.
"Go to sleep for a while, I'll call you when we get there."
Liu Xinyan was indeed sleepy. She took off her high heels and lay on Cheng Yu's legs.
The driver at home drove very steadily and did not brake suddenly even on a crowded main road. The slightly shaking feeling made Liu Xinyan fall asleep quickly, as if she was lying in a baby rocking chair.
Cheng Yu's gaze would occasionally shift from the tablet in his hand to his wife.
She looked quite obedient when she was sleeping. Her side sleeping position caused her face to be squeezed into a round arc, making her look chubby.
It's rare to be so cute.
Cheng Yu rubbed her cheek with his fingertips, which was soft and warm.
For some reason, he felt surprisingly calm inside.
The lights outside the window flickered on and off. Cheng Yu saw that she seemed to be dazzled by the light and frowned unconsciously, and subconsciously covered her eyes with his hands.
The subconscious action made Cheng Yu stunned.
He thought he wasn't considerate enough to this extent, but body awareness can often reveal a person's true inner thoughts.
He seems to be a little in love with his wife.
Maybe not a seem, maybe more than a little.
When did it start?
The scenes from the evening banquet emerged in her mind, the partner who kept discussing with her, her glittering body, and her smiling face.
Maybe it was even earlier, a spirited figure on horseback.
Or the sleeping face that you see first thing every morning.
It’s funny to say that the moment I fell in love with my wife was on our 17th wedding anniversary.
The screen in his hand had long been turned off, and he just kept looking at his wife's sleeping profile.
The other hand was placed on her bare arm, soothing it intentionally or unintentionally, until the slightly cold arm slowly became warm.
Perhaps Cheng Yu himself didn't realize that love was quietly overflowing in his eyes.
