Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 9: Desperate Housewives’ Counterattack (09)

During dinner, Liu Xinyan invited Jiang Yu and Lin Yusheng to stay for dinner. Although Cheng Yu did not understand why Jiang Yu was helping Cheng Hao with his homework, he did not criticize his wife, thinking that she was just trying to do charity.

However, both children were a little reserved towards Cheng Yu, and they ate the dishes in front of them quietly during the meal.

"Eat more! We need to eat all of this food tonight. Don't waste it." Liu Xinyan tapped her wine glass and asked, "I heard your school is going to hold a parent-child sports meet soon?"

Cheng Yu who heard the news:?

"You should have received the email too, right? Didn't your assistant tell you?" Liu Xinyan saw that Cheng Yu also looked clueless. She turned to Cheng Hao and said, "Go ahead and sign your dad up for the 3000m race. He's sure to win."

Lin Yusheng said: "Parents' scores are based on class comparisons, and the class with the highest points can be designated a winter camp site for the next quarter."

Seth holds summer camps and winter camps lasting half a month every year, and the locations are basically decided by students drawing lots.

"The sports meet is about to start in a week. The teacher emailed the registration form, and my mom received it too."

Liu Xinyan snorted and laughed: "Can this event be held? We are all busy middle-aged people."

"I guess so. Ah—our class really wants to go to Finland." Cheng Hao said, "Mom, I heard you were pretty good at equestrianism. Why don't you sign up?"

Hearing this, Cheng Yu glanced at Liu Xinyan. Although they were from the same school, he had no idea that Liu Xinyan was so good at horse riding.

Liu Xinyan chuckled: "Your dad used to have better grades. Let him go. Sign him up for the 800m, 1000m, high jump, long jump, and everything else."

Cheng Yu, who is now middle-aged: ...

Cheng Hao asked Jiang Yu: "Have your parents signed up?"

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment and said, "The autumn harvest is coming soon, so they don't have time. But I signed up for the cheerleading team to cheer for the athletes."

After asking, Cheng Hao realized that Jiang Yu's family conditions were average and his parents were both out of town. He blushed slightly and immediately picked up a piece of lobster meat with his serving chopsticks: "Then eat more quickly. Cheerleading also needs to be in good health."

Then he looked at his mother guiltily: "But I signed you up for equestrianism."

Liu Xinyan: ...

What a jerk.

"Is that so? Are you sure I have time to go?"

"Oh, Mom, I beg you—"

Seeing his wife's frown and his son's useless look, Cheng Yu also smiled.

Lin Yusheng added at the right time: "Uncle Cheng, he also signed you up for golf, badminton, shooting, fencing..."

Cheng Yu: ...

Liu Xinyan: Hahahahahahaha

Even though his son was a jerk to his father, Cheng Yu could clearly sense that Cheng Hao was closer to him now than before. In the past, he was too busy with work, especially after his father's death. He had to take care of almost everything in the group, big and small, and he often missed many of his son's growth milestones.

Fortunately, after finishing his overseas work, he can have a good rest for a while.

-

Soon the day of the sports meet arrived. Cheng Yu was still at the office and would be arriving later. Liu Xinyan, on the other hand, had turned down some work and arrived at Seth early.

Seth's gymnasium is very large and is divided into Hall A and Hall B. Cheng Hao sent Liu Xinyan to the lounge of their class and then disappeared.

There weren't many people in the lounge, but I unexpectedly saw Chang Ling sitting there, wearing sportswear, looking quite youthful and energetic.

Chang Ling also saw Liu Xinyan and greeted her: "Xinyan, have you also signed up for the project?"

Liu Xinyan said, "Cheng Hao signed me up for equestrianism."

Chang Ling: "What a coincidence, me too."

Liu Xinyan thought this was unfortunate. Chang Ling's equestrian skills used to be one of the best in the school, especially dressage. She always won first place in the competition and stole the limelight.

The reason why the original owner was good at horse riding was that he wanted to imitate Chang Ling.

Liu Xinyan picked a seat and sat down to drink tea. Chang Ling was watching her from a distance. She didn't really know Liu Xinyan well. She hadn't had any impression of her when she was studying, but she hadn't heard that Liu Xinyan was good at horse riding.

However, she did hear people say after they got married that Liu Xinyan had a crush on Cheng Yu in high school, so she always imitated her.

Thinking of this, Chang Ling couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Liu Xinyan was already extremely beautiful, so why would he imitate a lady from a noble family like her?

Men always like to marry good women from wealthy families, but they enjoy admiring all kinds of beautiful women outside.

We didn't stay in the lounge for long before a member of staff came to inform the parents that they could move to the competition field.

Yesterday was the students' competition, and today is the parents' competition. Although there are many events, not too many people have signed up.

But what is surprising is that the most signed-up event is the golf tournament. It seems that golf is the only sport that the fathers usually do.

The game now being played is badminton. Cheng Hao had originally wanted to sign Cheng Yu up for this competition, but Cheng Yu really didn't have that much time, so he had to cancel his registration.

Fortunately, badminton is a national sport and there are many people signing up, so the court is quite lively. Liu Xinyan even saw Zhou Jiayi's husband Ma Yanhui participating.

However, the couple were both overweight and were eliminated after just a few rounds. Zhou Jiayi smiled and handed them some water.

Not long after, Cheng Yu came over, followed by his assistant Zhang Xian.

Liu Xinyan also knew him and nodded as a response.

"Where is Cheng Hao?" Cheng Yu asked.

"I don't know where you went." Liu Xinyan said, "The next one is fencing, why don't you go prepare?"

So Cheng Yu and Zhang Xian left the badminton hall again.

The fencing hall is not far from the badminton hall. Some people are already putting on their equipment and warming up inside. In fact, there are not many parents participating in the competition, only four in the whole school.

These four were all students of Seth before.

The badminton match ended very quickly, and there were even fewer fencing participants. Liu Xinyan thought the match would be over soon and was about to go back to the lounge to rest, but she didn't expect that most of the crowd quickly rushed to the exit, towards the fencing hall.

Liu Xinyan was still a little puzzled when Cheng Hao suddenly appeared from nowhere and pulled his mother towards the fencing hall.

"Mom, why are you still here? Dad's game is about to start, and there won't be any seats left."

"......Isn't it just four people competing? What's so interesting about it? It will be over soon." Liu Xinyan felt puzzled.

When we walked to the entrance of the fencing hall, we found that Cheng Hao was not exaggerating. The audience seats were basically full, and the small hall was packed with people.

Only then did Liu Xinyan remember that in the original owner's memory, the best sport Cheng Yu had learned was fencing. He was on the school fencing team and had participated in many large and small competitions. If he had no family property to inherit, he might really have chosen to be a professional athlete.

There were not many athletes on the field, but Liu Xinyan recognized Cheng Yu at a glance. He was wearing a mask and a faculty member was helping him adjust his breastplate.

"Where did your dad get all this equipment?" Liu Xinyan remembered that she had never seen it at home.

"It's stored in the school, right?" Cheng Hao said casually.

Liu Xinyan looked around and found that many of the ladies who had been acting serious before were now excitedly pulling each other's hands and looked very excited.

I remember that Cheng Yu had many fans when he was on the school team. I didn’t expect that the same excited fans are still there now.

The competition was about to begin. Cheng Yu stood upright and stretched himself, taking his place beside the center line, holding the sword in one hand and the other hand behind his back.

Cheng Yu practiced foil, a purely stabbing weapon that prioritized hitting. It was clear that the opponent was no match for Cheng Yu. Even with effective defense, he couldn't get the attack point. Cheng Yu almost crushed him.

The atmosphere in the audience was very hot and cheers were heard one after another.

The competition ended quickly, and Cheng Yu won the championship without a doubt, accumulating 5 points for Class (A).

The atmosphere in the audience was extremely heated. The wives of the bosses who had been classmates with Cheng Yu seemed to have returned to their youthful and passionate age.

After Cheng Yu was killed, Cheng Hao ran to bring water to his father.

The father and son walked towards Liu Xinyan. She crossed her arms and smiled softly: "Of course, Mr. Cheng, you are still as skilled as ever."

Mr. Cheng, still in his prime: ...

"Mr. Cheng still has as many fans as before."

“It’s like a celebrity concert.”

"There's never been a press conference this lively."

Cheng Yu: It smells so strongly of jealousy.

Zhou Jiayi and his wife also came. Ma Yanhui and Cheng Yu did not have much business cooperation and few private interactions, but Zhou Jiayi thought that she and Liu Xinyan were quite familiar with each other.

"Mr. Cheng is still as capable as he was back then," said Zhou Jiayi.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Cheng is not only good at business, but also has such high fencing skills." Ma Yanhui said with a smile while touching his belly.

"Old Ma, you may not know that Mr. Cheng used to be a member of our school team and participated in many competitions," said Zhou Jiayi.

Liu Xinyan smiled and said, "Boss Cheng, you must be taking this competition seriously. To help your child win the prize, you must have been practicing a lot in private these days, right?"

Cheng Yu spoke at the right moment: "I haven't touched a sword in a few years, so I'm a lot less skilled."

At this time, Chang Ling also walked over from not far away. She smiled and said, "Brother Cheng Yu is too modest. He hasn't practiced for so many years, but his level is still online."

Zhou Jiayi looked at Chang Ling, then at Liu Xinyan, and some people around also noticed it.

The former childhood sweethearts are now husband and wife, a complete love triangle.

No matter how close Cheng Yu and Chang Ling were before, Liu Xinyan is his wife at this moment!

Liu Xinyan didn't want to be a monkey being watched, and after spending some time together, she actually felt that Cheng Yu had no lingering feelings for Chang Ling at all!

No matter how slow Cheng Hao was, he could feel that the atmosphere seemed to be wrong. He suddenly thought of the meal at the old house some time ago, plus the words that Grandpa Chang and Grandma Chang often said. He seemed to sense the unusual relationship between Cheng Yu and Chang Ling.

Is this Aunt Chang trying to snatch his father from his mother?

No way! Although his father is still very handsome, but but——

...No, he has to help his mother maintain Mrs. Cheng's position!

Cheng Hao immediately said, "Dad, your shooting competition is about to start. Let's get ready. After the competition, you and Mom will go backstage at the racecourse to change clothes."

Cheng Yu, who was being urged to compete: ...

Zhou Jiayi said, "Xinyan, have you also signed up for equestrianism?"

Chang Ling smiled and said, "I've signed up too."

Zhou Jiayi had been in the same class with Chang Ling before, so she knew she was good at horse riding. But she hadn't expected Liu Xinyan to love Cheng Yu so much that she even learned horse riding just to emulate Chang Ling!

So touching!

What is this called! If you keep thinking about it, there will be a response!

To be able to sit in the position of Mrs. Cheng and stay there for so long, this Liu Xinyan must be very capable!

Liu Xinyan looked at Zhou Jiayi's ever-changing expression, neither understanding nor wanting to understand.

Chang Ling glanced at Cheng Yu inconspicuously, and seeing that Cheng Yu didn't seem to want to talk to her, she felt a little disappointed but her expression remained unchanged.
