Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Cai Keren stood up to give up her seat, flirtatiously tossing her long, wavy hair, and leaned against the desk, saying coquettishly, "Why wear a scarf on such a hot day? Aren't you afraid of getting heat rash?"

Yan Zuozuo blushed slightly and guiltily went to turn on the computer. "You didn't come to me about this scarf, did you?"

Cai Keren shrugged, stopped beating around the bush, and said directly, "You really have no chance with Vice President Qi?"

Yan Zuozuo frowned: "What do you mean by this?"

"It's nothing. If you really break up with Vice President Qi, I plan to make my move." Cai Keren twirled her hair with her fingers, speaking casually.

Yan Zuozuo was no longer calm: "He has a fiancée, and that person is the CEO's niece."

"So what? Unmarried women don't count. I'd take the CEO's niece, or even his own daughter, if she weren't married!"

Yan Zuozuo looked at Cai Keren with a complicated expression. Although she had always heard bad rumors about Cai Keren, she always felt that those rumors were just that—rumors—and that they were unfair to Cai Keren. But now, did she realize that she had been wrong to insist on them?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Cai Keren smiled and said, "What, you still can't let go? But to be honest, I can also see that Vice President Qi can't let go of you either. If you're willing to admit it, I won't take it from you."

Yan Zuozuo looked away: "What you do is none of my business. Good luck."

"That would be perfect. I don't think I'm any worse than you, much less worse than He Xinrui. I'm confident that Vice President Qi will eventually fall for me."

Seeing Cai Keren's confident demeanor, Yan Zuozuo fell silent. She had witnessed Qi Jiahui's actions firsthand, and if Cai Keren knew of his selfishness yet still insisted on seducing him, she had nothing to say.

Cai Keren straightened up and smiled, "It's true that I was overthinking it. You've already hooked up with President Chi, why would you still care about Vice President Qi?" With that, she left with a charming laugh. It wasn't that she hadn't considered making a move on Chi Moqing, but rather that she had tried before and suffered a crushing defeat.

After get off work in the afternoon, Chi Moqing went home to pick up Yan Zuozuo, but found she wasn't home. He called her and learned that she had gone to work again. It wasn't until half an hour later that Yan Zuozuo rushed back, carrying a gift she had just bought.

She put the gift on the table, quickly changed her clothes, and touched up her makeup, but when she stood in front of the mirror, she couldn't help but frown.

Chi Moqing waited for a long time but she didn't come out, so he pushed the door open and went in, only to see her looking distressed.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Yan Zuozuo sighed and muttered softly, "Is this outfit suitable? And shouldn't I get my hair trimmed?"

If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have gone to work this afternoon; she should have gone for a beauty treatment and had her hair done. Now it's definitely too late, she thought, looking conflicted.

Chi Moqing smiled faintly, walked over and kissed her on the lips. Seeing that she didn't react, he went straight in, entangling her in a dance with him. At first, Yan Zuozuo didn't react, but by the time she came to her senses and tried to push him away, he had already let go.

Yan Zuozuo glared at him, both embarrassed and angry, but Chi Moqing smiled and took her hand, leading her outside. "Are you feeling better now?"

Yan Zuozuo didn't say anything, but she had to admit that his antics had relieved most of her tension.

Throughout the journey, Yan Zuozuo didn't dare look at Chi Moqing, her face flushed red. After about half an hour, she couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Do Mom and Dad live very far away?"

Chi Moqing was pleased with her way of addressing him, and glanced at her sideways. “We’ll be there soon. Dad used to be in the military region, but he’s retired now and lives in the military compound, which is quite a distance away. If you’re tired, you can rest for a bit.”

Yan Zuozuo nodded, a stiff smile on her face. Although she had met Chi Moqing's parents before and they were very nice people, this was her first time visiting his home, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

After a pause, Yan Zuozuo murmured, "I'm really lucky. I wonder if I'll win the lottery jackpot."

She just grabbed him on a whim, never expecting that her husband would be a handsome, wealthy, and successful second-generation red.

Chi Moqing smiled and said, "You were the one who proposed to me back then, it's too late to regret it now."

"I don't regret it..." Yan Zuozuo muttered softly, but the slight unease was still on her face.

Chi Moqing didn't say much, but just affectionately patted her head.

The car quickly stopped in front of a tall and imposing courtyard. Armed guards stood at the gate, staring straight ahead. They recognized Chi Moqing, thus saving them the trouble of checking and registering him.

Yan Zuozuo became increasingly nervous as she walked further in, feeling a sense of dread as she looked at the heavily guarded surroundings.

"Brother, sister-in-law!" Before we even reached the front door, a lively and cheerful voice could be heard.

Chi Ran, Yan Zuozuo's aunt whom she had met once, was so beautiful that it was impossible to look away. She smiled and greeted her, then heard footsteps coming from inside. "Is that Mo Qing and Zuozuo?"

Chi's mother walked out of the living room, her eyes fixed on Yan Zuozuo, and she liked her more and more as she looked at her.

Yan Zuozuo glanced at Chi Moqing, then shyly called out to Chi's mother, "Mom."

Mother Chi was overjoyed. Her daughter-in-law, whom she had longed for for so many years, had finally arrived home. She was fair-skinned and very pleasing to the eye. She took Yan Zuozuo's hand and led her inside. "You must be tired after such a long drive?"

"No, I'm not tired." Yan Zuozuo quickly shook her head, somewhat taken aback by Chi's mother's enthusiasm.

Mrs. Chi poured her juice and turned on the TV. Yan Zuozuo, flustered and embarrassed, quickly went to help. Mrs. Chi saw all this and thought to herself that she was indeed a diligent and charming young woman, and she liked her very much. Although her son's marriage was rushed, she was definitely not mistaken in choosing this daughter-in-law.

"Mom, that's enough! Look how scared you've made my sister-in-law," Chi Ran said teasingly, her face lightly made up, radiating youthful energy.

"Go away, go away, this is none of your business," Mrs. Chi said with a laugh. "Go upstairs and call your father, he's been waiting all day."

Chi Moqing followed behind Yan Zuozuo, carrying the things she had bought, but smiled without saying a word.

As Chi Ran went upstairs, she passed by Chi Moqing, patted his shoulder and chuckled, "Brother, are you happy?" She had just seen the hickeys on Yan Zuozuo's neck.

Chi Moqing glared at her amusedly: "You have no manners."

Chi Ran stuck out her tongue and went upstairs to call her father.

The Chi family parents' residence was not luxuriously decorated, but had a rustic feel. There were some potted plants in the corner, making it simple and comfortable. Yan Zuozuo liked it very much.

Before long, Mr. Chi came downstairs. Yan Zuozuo had no experience facing her father and was at a loss for words. She looked at Chi Moqing, then fixed her gaze on Mr. Chi, and said nervously, "Dad."

Chi Moqing stood beside her and squeezed her hand. For some reason, Yan Zuozuo's flustered heart calmed down. She squeezed his hand back and felt a warm, gentle sensation flowing between their clasped hands.

Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow slightly, and then his eyes filled with tenderness.

Chi's father smiled at Yan Zuozuo, whose gentle and refined appearance was quite similar to that of Chi Moqing. However, having been a general his entire life, he still exuded an air of authority even when smiling.

Chi Moqing handed the things in his hand to Yan Zuozuo, asking her to distribute them to everyone. Yan Zuozuo quickly took them and placed them on the table. "These are gifts I bought for my parents... to lower blood lipids and blood pressure. You should try them first. If they work, I'll bring two more boxes next time."

Chi's father quite liked this girl. Although he hadn't handled He Cangyuan's matter well last time, he could still see that she had a straightforward and stubborn personality, which he liked.

"And... I also ordered a massage chair, but it hasn't arrived yet. I'll have the mall deliver it tomorrow..." She said nervously, afraid that her parents wouldn't like it.

"Why are you spending all that money, child?" Although Mrs. Chi was scolding her, she had a smile on her face.

"It's all from Zuo Zuo's heart, so please accept it." Chi Moqing pulled Yan Zuo Zuo to sit on the sofa and whispered, "Why didn't you tell me about the massage chair? If you try to please them like this, I won't like you anymore."

Yan Zuozuo gave him a playful glare: "Nonsense."

Chi's mother took out a red envelope that she had prepared beforehand and handed it to Yan Zuozuo, saying, "Keep this, my dear, and live a good life from now on."

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. She had already received a red envelope before, so why was there another one? She looked at Chi Moqing, puzzled.

Chi Moqing smiled and said, "This is from Dad, keep it."

"Thank you, Dad." Yan Zuozuo accepted the red envelope and then handed her the gift she had prepared for Chi Ran. "I didn't know what to buy you. This is a bracelet I designed myself. I don't know if you'll like it."

"It's so beautiful!" Chi Ran took the bracelet and liked it more and more as she looked at it. She opened her bright eyes and said, "I've heard from my brother that my sister-in-law is a designer. Sure enough, the things she designs are so beautiful."

She held the clothes in her hands, looking at them from left to right. "Sister-in-law, remember to let me know when you design clothes in the future. I promise to be your most loyal fan." After saying that, she waved her arm in front of Chi's mother. "Mom, does it look good?"

"You look beautiful, you look beautiful." Chi's mother said with a smile, "You'll look even more beautiful if you can find someone that your father and I both like."

"Mom!" Chi Ran pouted coquettishly, "What are you talking about? I'm still young, and I don't want to get married so early. I'm just being considerate of you and want to spend more time with you."

"You little devil." Chi's father patted her head affectionately, then said, "Everyone's here, let's eat."

Chi Moqing is usually very busy and rarely comes back. Chi's father took out his treasured wine and asked him to have a couple of drinks with him, while the women drank juice. Yan Zuozuo felt that what happened last time was very impolite and said, "Mom and Dad, I was wrong at the last meal. I apologize to you."

"Don't mention it. We've heard a bit about your parents' situation. There's nothing wrong with what you're doing."

Yan Zuozuo looked gratefully at Chi's parents, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

After dinner, Chi Moqing and his father played chess in the living room. Chi's mother took Yan Zuozuo's hand and walked towards Chi Moqing's room. "We women are not interested in their men's conversation. You sit here for a while, I'll go cut some fruit."

"Mom, let me help you." Yan Zuozuo said, getting up, but was pressed back down by Chi's mother. "You sit down, I can manage on my own."

Yan Zuozuo stayed alone in Chi Moqing's room. The overall design of his room was the same as the main house, with an antique style that exuded a simple yet elegant charm.

The bookshelves were filled with books, ranging from literary classics to best-selling novels, from military and political to economics and education, and even fashion magazines—virtually everything imaginable.

She casually picked up a book to look at, when suddenly an old photograph fell out. It looked very old. The photo showed two middle school students; the boy was a young Chi Moqing, and the girl…

Yan Zuozuo frowned, feeling that the face looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite place it. Just as she was deep in thought, Mother Chi came in from outside carrying fruit.

She put down the book she was holding and hurried over to get the fruit platter. Mother Chi smiled, "Chi Ran went out on business, let's have a chat, just the two of us." She pulled Yan Zuozuo's hand and sat her down on the edge of the bed, asking, "Tell Mom, how did you and Mo Qing meet?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, finding it difficult to speak. Should she say that she had proposed to any random man out of spite?
