Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door
Chapter 41 President Chi, you're so narcissistic
Yan Zuozuo glanced at Chi Moqing, assuming he was hesitant to refuse and wanted her to speak up. Coincidentally, she didn't want to eat with their family either; it made her feel sorry for her mother who had waited so many years for them.
So she smiled and said, "Dean He, you're too kind. We can let bygones be bygones. Why should you hold a grudge?"
"Mrs. Chi is truly generous." He Cangyuan smiled awkwardly.
"Dean He, you're joking. The truly magnanimous person isn't me, but my mother. I used to think my mother was foolish and didn't approve of her forbearance, but now I'm very grateful for everything she taught me, because it was that inner cultivation that led me to meet my husband and to who I am today. Dean He, am I right?"
He Cangyuan's expression stiffened, his smile seemingly frozen on his face. "Mrs. Chi's mother was a great mother..."
"She is indeed great, but I can't even do a tenth of what she did. I don't have many virtues, but I know how to repay kindness and avenge wrongs." Yan Zuozuo smiled, then looked up at Chi Moqing, "Don't you think I'm a bad person?"
"How could that be? As long as you're happy," Chi Moqing said with a doting smile.
He Cangyuan was sweating profusely, fearing that Yan Zuozuo would stop Chi Moqing from allocating funds to the hospital, so he quickly said, "Xinrui, Jiahui, apologize to Mrs. Chi. You were really too rude last time."
He Xinrui was aware of the hospital's financial problems, and it was precisely because she knew this that she had no choice but to humble herself before Yan Zuozuo. No matter how resentful she was, she would never use the hospital's situation to spite herself.
She smiled and was about to speak when she heard Yan Zuozuo say, "No need, it's all in the past, it would be too infuriating to say that."
He Xinrui gritted her teeth in hatred, but had no choice but to force a smile. She pinched Qi Jiahui hard to make him speak.
Qi Jiahui finally snapped out of his daze, and looking at Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing's intimate manner, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. He stared at Yan Zuozuo and said, "What happened last time was my fault. How about I apologize to Mrs. Chi over this meal? The catfish here is quite good; I remember you liked it."
Yan Zuozuo's expression changed slightly, and her arm, which was linked with Chi Moqing's, stiffened. Chi Moqing noticed her unusual expression and smiled calmly at Qi Jiahui, "Mr. Qi seems to know my wife quite well. I wonder if you care about your fiancée as much?"
Qi Jiahui's expression turned noticeably more unpleasant, and he said stiffly, "Of course I know Xinrui's tastes. I understand anyone I care about."
Chi Moqing's smile shifted slightly, but he remained nonchalant as he said, "Mr. Qi is quite humorous, saying he cares about my wife in front of Miss He. I really wonder what Mr. Qi was planning to do by deliberately locking my wife in the room at the last banquet?" His face darkened, and he turned to look at He Xinrui. "I hope Miss He will keep a close eye on her man before hurting my wife next time. I believe my wife is a self-respecting woman, but as for Mr. Qi..." He sneered and stopped speaking.
Qi Jiahui was so shocked by what Chi Moqing said that he clenched his fists tightly at his sides, his nails digging into his flesh without him feeling any pain.
He Cangyuan realized that Chi Moqing was avenging Yan Zuozuo and establishing his authority. He chuckled dryly, regretting that he had been so blind to his own faults and had offended this insignificant girl.
"President Chi, the younger generation doesn't know how to speak properly, please be magnanimous." He Cangyuan hurriedly said with a smile, "Why don't we sit down and have a meal together? I'll have a few drinks with President Chi to apologize."
"No!" Yan Zuozuo suddenly spoke up just as He Cangyuan finished speaking.
He Cangyuan was taken aback, and somewhat displeased. But he suppressed his anger and asked, "Why? Is it that Mrs. Chi still won't forgive us?"
"Mo Qing has a sensitive stomach, and the doctor has banned him from drinking. He can't drink." She didn't understand business matters, but she could tell that Chi Mo Qing and He Cang Yuan were business partners. It would be troublesome if something happened because of her. She bit her lip in annoyance and tried to explain.
But Chi Moqing not only didn't blame her for her recklessness, but looked at her with a smile.
The more He Cangyuan saw how affectionate they were, the more frightened he became. He quickly smiled and said, "I didn't realize that President Chi dotes on his wife so much."
"A wife is meant to be cherished." Chi Moqing showed no embarrassment at being teased, and instead readily admitted it.
He Cangyuan became increasingly embarrassed: "Then it's okay to just eat and not drink, right?"
"What does my wife think?" Chi Moqing asked.
Yan Zuozuo didn't understand his meaning. As far as she was concerned, she didn't want to stay at all. She didn't want to have any further involvement with either He Cangyuan or Qi Jiahui.
Chi Moqing smiled knowingly, then said to He Cangyuan, "I'm afraid it won't work today. Zuo Zuo and I have something to do later, so it seems we'll have to wait until next time."
“But…” He Cangyuan was interrupted by Chi Moqing before he could finish speaking, “How about I treat you to this meal? Let’s have a meal together next time we’re free.”
Since things had come to this point, He Cangyuan couldn't very well insist. "Then let's do it next time. I'll treat President Chi to this meal. Otherwise, I'll feel bad about it."
"Dean He, you're too kind. I've already paid the bill. In that case, we'll be going now." Chi Moqing glanced at Yan Zuozuo. "Will you be hungry tonight? Would you like some snacks?"
Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "No, I still have some at home."
Hearing this, Chi Moqing smiled and left with Yan Zuozuo in his arms. Qi Jiahui's eyes were fixed on Yan Zuozuo. He had naturally seen their interaction just now. Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing's interaction was just like when they were together.
Could it be that Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing have really developed feelings for each other?
He shook his head, refusing to believe it. He had always thought that even if that person was Chi Moqing, as long as Yan Zuozuo didn't change her mind, he would have a day to win her back. But now, he wasn't so sure. Yan Zuozuo's heart and eyes clearly only had room for Chi Moqing. How could he possibly win her back like that?
"Jia Hui?" He Cangyuan called him several times before Qi Jia Hui came back to his senses and said calmly, "I'm going to the restroom."
He needs to calm down, otherwise he will be unable to resist resentment towards He Xinrui, and then all his efforts will be in vain.
As Yan Zuozuo left the restaurant, she was still somewhat dazed. Chi Moqing didn't disturb her; he simply drove on.
Yan Zuozuo was restless the whole way, and it wasn't until Chi Moqing stopped the car that she came to her senses and looked at him in confusion, "What are we doing here?"
The most expensive villa area in the entire S city, where only the rich and powerful live, and I've heard that quite a few big stars also live here.
"Let's go in and take a look." Chi Moqing smiled but didn't say anything, stopping in front of one of the villas. Under Yan Zuozuo's puzzled gaze, he took out the key and handed it to her, gesturing for her to open the door.
Yan Zuozuo felt something was off. The moment she took out her key to open the door, her heart pounded. The inside looked like it had just been renovated; it was empty, and the furniture hadn't been put in yet.
She turned around and stared at him blankly, "This is..."
From the choice of wallpaper to the selection of flooring, and even the overall layout, everything was in her preferred style. She couldn't help but touch the wallpaper on the wall; she recognized it—it was the wallpaper that won first prize in an American competition, and she'd heard it was very expensive.
The kitchen has two floors, one inside and one outside, separated by Chinese and Western styles. The bar counter is also very large, giving it a spacious feel. Although it's currently empty, its luxury is still evident.
“This will be our home from now on, with you, me, and our child. We’ll go pick out furniture together in a few days, and then we’ll move in,” Chi Moqing said, hugging her from behind.
Yan Zuozuo felt it was unreal; she was actually living in a luxury mansion. She turned to Chi Moqing, a strange look in her eyes, "Everything was fine at the Xingcheng Apartments, why move?"
She lowered her eyes, unwilling to admit that she was thinking of Cai Qingqing. After all, Chi Moqing had already explained things to her, and if she continued to pester him, it would seem unreasonable.
"Zuo Zuo, tell me what you're thinking. We're going to spend our lives together, we can't keep guessing." Chi Moqing held her chin, forcing her to look at him.
Yan Zuozuo stared at him intently for a long time before finally saying in a muffled voice, "Is it because of Cai Qingqing? If you... if you were using her as a substitute, why did you... break up with her later?"
Chi Moqing stared at her intently, then sighed and said, "Because she had wicked intentions."
No matter how much others thought Cai Qingqing and Chi Moqing were a good match, Chi Moqing refused to acknowledge their relationship, which worried Cai Qingqing greatly, fearing that he might fall for someone else. Therefore, she planned to get him drunk at Chi Moqing's birthday party and make their fake relationship real.
As a result, Chi Moqing refused her invitation. In a fit of anger, Cai Qingqing went to a bar and ended up losing her virginity to a stranger. No one knew about this initially, but she became pregnant and even framed him.
Chi Moqing did not refute, but calmly found evidence, which infuriated the Cai family, who then sent Cai Qingqing abroad.
Yan Zuozuo listened, stunned, unable to articulate her feelings. She looked at Chi Moqing with a complex expression, seemingly understanding him more and more. Unless it was someone he truly cared about, he could be utterly ruthless to anyone else.
Chi Moqing chuckled softly, a hint of tension barely perceptible in his eyes. "Do you think I'm cruel?"
Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "You're just being true to your own feelings."
"My wife understands me best." Chi Moqing breathed a sigh of relief and rested his head on her forehead. "Cai Qingqing and I have no relation whatsoever. We're just acquaintances."
Yan Zuozuo nodded and grinned.
"You can ask me any questions you have in the future. Just don't keep them to yourself, understand?" Chi Moqing gently touched her face and said tenderly.
Yan Zuozuo nodded seriously, took Chi Moqing's hand and walked around the villa room by room, then said solemnly, "Chi Moqing, you make me a little jealous of myself."
Chi Moqing chuckled and stood with her in front of the French windows. "I'm starting to get jealous of you too. You're so lucky to have a rich, handsome, and considerate husband."
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter, "Chi Moqing, you're so narcissistic."
Chi Moqing smiled but said nothing, and pulled her to another room, which was connected to the balcony and was about the same size as the master bedroom. "This is the nursery. Our baby will sleep here from now on."
Yan Zuozuo's face flushed red, and she glared at him coquettishly. He's thinking a lot, but nothing's even close to happening yet.
"Who said that? I've been so diligent in planting seeds lately, I might even have a dot, let alone a sliver." Chi Moqing smiled wickedly, nibbling at her little earlobe as he said, "We don't need many babies, one boy and one girl is just right. We have you, me, and the baby in our home."
Yan Zuozuo's eyes inexplicably reddened, and she looked away from him. How could this man spoil her so much? It almost felt like a dream. Tears rolled down her cheeks, but the corners of her mouth turned up in a smile.
