Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!

Qi Yuan had a bad feeling and looked at Noah warily, "What are you planning to do while we're acting?"

"Ah Yuan, don't be afraid."

"I'm quite scared."

Although it was agreed beforehand, Noah was a real scoundrel, and who knew what he would do to me outside under the pretense of acting.

“Don’t be afraid,” Noah said. “I have my pride too. I won’t kiss you in public. At most, I’ll kiss your cheek and hug your waist. I won’t do anything else.”

Qi Yuan frowned. "Why should I accompany you to act outside?"

“You have to go along with it.” Noah said seriously, “Xiu was stabbed and almost died while covering for you. Now Shi Bai is also covering for you by saying he’s my new male concubine. They’ve already done so much for you, so you have to put on an act for them too.”

"Noah, are you trying to morally blackmail me?"

Qi Yuan knew that Xiu and Shi Bai's false identities were for his own protection.

But one thing needs to be clarified: Xiu and Shi Bai's acting was Noah's personal motive from the beginning; it was something Noah did to protect Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan knew it was to protect himself, but he didn't really approve of Xiu and Shi Bai covering for him. If possible, he hoped that Xiu and Shi Bai would stop interfering in their affairs, but that was obviously impossible.

“Honey, things have come to this, there’s no turning back, we can only keep moving forward. Besides, your foot injury is healed now, and you haven’t had a proper chance to explore Juecheng since you got out of prison. Don’t you really want to go out for a walk with me?” Noah asked.

Qi Yuan didn't want to be morally blackmailed and go along with Noah's fuss, but as Noah said, things had come to this point, and there was no turning back, only the possibility of making the same mistake again.

Furthermore, he genuinely wanted to explore the entire city of Juecheng.

"Won't it be dangerous if I go out with you?" Qi Yuan asked.

"The whole city is on high alert lately, and no one dares to make a move at this time. Besides, I will definitely take the best precautions when we go out. In fact, it would be even better if we could catch a few fish while we go out for a stroll."

Noah wasn't afraid of trouble, he was afraid the other side wouldn't intervene.

Only when the other party takes action can one gain the moral high ground and cause trouble for them.

It's only been a few days since Qi Yuan and Xiu Gang had their accident, so everyone should calm down for a while. Besides, his trip with Qi Yuan today was a spur-of-the-moment decision. If an assassin wanted to kill them, it would be very difficult without prior preparation.

Qi Yuan understood what Noah wanted to do by inviting him out, and nodded, saying, "Alright, let's go out."

"Then go change your clothes."

With that, Noah ran off to change his clothes.

Qi Yuan also got up and went back to his room to change his clothes.

Qi Yuan's attire is always simple: a white wool sweater as a base layer, a thick black overcoat, and finally a black scarf.

Qi Yuan's skin was already fair, and the black paint made it appear even fairer.

Standing quietly, it's like a painting.

Noah frowned slightly as he looked at Qi Yuan's outfit. "Yuan, you should wear other colors sometimes. Wearing black every day makes you look like a widow who has lost her husband."

"You wanted to get punched by me before you even left the house?" Qi Yuan asked.

Noah muttered, "After your foot injury healed, A-Yuan, your temper has become more volatile. Is this your battle strategy? Show weakness when you're injured, and start being violent when you're not."

Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Noah was absolutely right.

He would act particularly weak whenever he was injured, misleading others' judgment of him. Then, when someone tried to harm him, he would immediately show his ferocious side and fight back.

When he's not injured, he doesn't pretend at all.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go," Qi Yuan said.

"Alright, let's go. Ah Yuan, remember not to be so arrogant when you're out here, and don't hit me. You have to give the Davis family head some face when you're out here."

Noah looked serious.

Qi Yuan glanced at him and said, "I'm not as violent as you think."

"really?"

Qi Yuan ignored his questions and walked out the door without answering.

Noah quickly followed him out.

Their first stop was the most famous jewelry store in Juecheng.

The jewelry store was filled with various expensive and beautiful gemstones that sparkled under the lights, but Qi Yuan had no interest in them whatsoever.

Men rarely wear jewelry. In the North State, men only wear brooches, buttons, or cufflinks inlaid with jewels.

She rarely wears jewelry necklaces.

Noah picked out a sapphire blue diamond brooch and asked, "Yuan, do you like this?"

"do not like."

"Then wrap up everything except this."

Upon hearing Noah's words, Qi Yuan's expression changed. "Why buy so many? We can't eat them."

"This is to be divided between the two people in the family, but the largest share will be given to you."

Qi Yuan wanted to retort, but seeing the waiter's expectant eyes and remembering that he was just putting on an act with Noah, he didn't say anything more.

Noah was incredibly generous when it came to buying jewelry; he bought an entire cabinet full of pieces, except for a few styles he didn't like.

After leaving the jewelry store and getting into the car, Qi Yuan couldn't help but say, "I don't like shopping. Can we change the destination for the rest of the trip?"

"Let me think," Noah said to the driver after a moment's thought, "Where to go next?"

"Yes."

The driver stepped on the gas, and the car headed towards the church.

As Qi Yuan passed by his own restaurant, he saw a long line of people at the entrance, some of whom had already received their dumplings and were happily leaving.

Looking at the bustling scene in the restaurant, Noah glanced over and said, "The few employees you have in your restaurant right now are definitely not enough. You could consider hiring a few more. Do you want me to help you?"

"Recruit a few quick and efficient people who will follow instructions."

“Casio is still working at the restaurant; he hasn’t left,” Noah suddenly said.

Qi Yuan nodded. "I know. Casio made a promise to me that if he ever left, he would let me know, and he agreed. So, not receiving any news from him means he's still working at my restaurant."

"It seems you two have a pretty good relationship. Yuan, you always have a cold face to everyone, how come you're so close to Casio?" Noah asked.

Qi Yuan thought for a moment, "My relationship with Casio isn't exactly good, it's just a normal boss-subordinate relationship."

“Even ordinary people can be considered to have a good relationship, but you have to know that Casio is not an ordinary person.”

Given Casio's character and actions, the fact that he was willing to keep Qi Yuan even after his identity was discovered shows that he was very satisfied with Qi Yuan.

Noah thought it was fortunate that Casio didn't seem to like men; otherwise, given Casio's background and experience, he would have to consider the other party's intentions if he were willing to work as a butcher in Qiyuan's restaurant.
