Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

When they were almost at the ward, Yan Zuozuo said that her mother was sick, "but it's nothing serious, she's just too tired."

Chi Moqing's furrowed brows finally relaxed: "Why didn't you call me sooner? If I hadn't run into you, were you not planning to tell me?"

"It's really nothing. The hospital just wants me to have a full check-up, that's why I need to stay in the hospital for a few days," Yan Zuozuo said with a smile.

Chi Moqing patted her head helplessly: "Whether it's a big deal or a small matter, as long as it concerns you, I don't want to be kept in the dark." As he spoke, they had already reached the door of the ward.

Upon seeing Chi Moqing, Yan's mother was taken aback and gave Yan Zuozuo a reproachful look, "I'm fine, why did you call Moqing here? He's so busy with work, aren't you just making things worse?"

Yan Zuozuo smiled wryly, glanced at Chi Moqing, and had an expression that said, "I knew it would be like this."

Chi Moqing placed the things Yan Zuozuo bought from the supermarket in the ward and smiled at Yan's mother, "It wasn't Zuozuo who called me. I just happened to run into Zuozuo while visiting someone. Besides, Mom is hospitalized here, and I'm practically her son, so how could I not tell you about something like this?"

Mother Yan beamed with joy: "You're busy with work, but it's alright for me. If something really happened, would I not tell you? Work is the most important thing."

Chi Moqing chuckled: "No matter how important work is, it can't compare to family. Only when my family is healthy and happy can I work well outside. Otherwise, what's the point of achieving great success?"

Mother Yan was so moved by his words that she almost cried. She truly felt that heaven had been kind to her and her daughter, sending such a wonderful man into their family. She patted Chi Moqing's hand, "It's Mother who has caused you trouble."

"This is no trouble at all, it's an opportunity for us children to show our filial piety to you," Chi Moqing said with a smile. Then he called the hospital director to arrange for a full examination for Yan's mother as soon as possible, with the best doctors and nurses. He also changed her to a VIP ward to make her more comfortable.

That evening, Mu Tianyang actually came and insisted on sending them away. Yan Zuozuo, who had originally wanted to stay, then went back with Chi Moqing. Seeing how cautious Mu Tianyang was with Yan's mother, she had nothing to worry about, only telling them to call them immediately if anything happened.

Chi Moqing, holding Yan Zuozuo's hand, didn't go straight back, but instead walked slowly along the hospital path. Yan Zuozuo turned her head to look at him, and suddenly chuckled, "Chi Moqing, I've noticed you're getting more and more impressive. Just a few simple words and you almost moved my mom to tears. No wonder you're such a shrewd businessman."

Chi Moqing pinched her nose: "I'm telling the truth. Mom could feel it, that's why she was moved."

"You're so shrewd, you can see right through people. You just blurt things out without thinking." Yan Zuozuo snorted.

Chi Moqing laughed, not denying that what she said was true. However, there weren't many people worth him flattering like this, and Yan's mother was his wife's mother, which was why he was willing to say these things.

The two continued walking, and after a moment of silence, Chi Moqing asked, "How are things going at the company? Do you need me to get involved?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Zuozuo's smile vanished, replaced by a bitter expression. "I messed up the competition group thing."

Chi Moqing looked at her in astonishment. He had always known that she had been working very hard on the competition group, so how did she mess it up?

"Can you tell me about it? I may not be able to help, but I can be the best listener." No way! If he found out who bullied his wife, he wouldn't be lenient at all.

"The design drawings were posted online, and all my hard work went up in smoke." Yan Zuozuo smiled bitterly and bit her lip. "I suddenly feel very tired, as if I have lived a very unsuccessful life. Apart from Zixin, I don't have a single real friend. I work hard, but this is always the result I get. It's terrible."

Chi Moqing reached out and patted her head: "They are blind and did not see how good you are. Only I have the discerning eye to decide to marry you the first time we met."

puff!

Yan Zuozuo suddenly laughed: "President Chi, are you praising me, or are you just praising yourself in a roundabout way?"

"Of course I'm praising my wife. If others had discovered how wonderful you are, how could I have married you? That's why I'm not only discerning, but also very lucky." Chi Moqing's smug expression made Yan Zuozuo laugh heartily, completely erasing her earlier dejected look.

Chi Moqing gazed at her quietly. He loved Yan Zuozuo's relaxed, optimistic, and positive spirit. Perhaps she wasn't the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, but she was the woman with the brightest and warmest smile he had ever met. He hoped she would always be smiling, and he would shield her from all sadness and sorrow.

After laughing, Yan Zuozuo felt much better. Holding Chi Moqing's hand, she walked and said, "The design director wants me to make amends and win the Chi Group's bid from you. Isn't that ridiculous? The design drawings were posted online, and instead of rushing to find the culprit, they seem to have been prepared all along and want me to come to you for a cooperation project."

She frowned slightly, finding the whole thing rather strange. Not only the design director, but even the CEO, and the entire company, reacted in a way that seemed odd.

No wonder she called him that morning; Chi Moqing didn't say anything, just listened to her pour out her troubles. A pair of broad, kind hands held hers tightly, offering her silent comfort.

"I'm not smart, but I'm not stupid either. It's really upsetting to be made a fool of like this. I've been working at Fan Hua Design since I graduated, and although it hasn't been long, I have feelings for them. But it seems like they don't have any feelings for me at all. I feel so pathetic." Yan Zuozuo bit her lip, her eyes reddening.

Chi Moqing turned her around and looked at her seriously. "Then take a break. Fan Hua Design will be Chi's possession sooner or later, and I will settle accounts with those who bullied you sooner or later."

Yan Zuozuo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly shook her head and laughed, "You're acting like a bully. I'm just lamenting my own failure as a person. Don't take advantage of your power to bully others."

“You’re my wife. Even if I’m abusing my power, it’s only right that I stand up for you.” Chi Moqing hugged her. “Alright, let’s not think about these unhappy things anymore. Let’s go have a candlelight dinner.”

The restaurant Chi Moqing chose was very romantic, with melodious piano music, an elegant and unique ambiance, steak, and red wine. During the romantic candlelight dinner, Yan Zuozuo quietly watched him. His strong features and deep eyes were captivating. Actually, she didn't need much, nor did she require such a luxurious atmosphere. Just being with him, feeling each other's hearts close, was enough for her.

In the candlelight, Chi Moqing took her hand and kissed her ring. "You are the woman I've chosen. It's my duty to make you happy. So don't keep anything to yourself. Even if I become a bully for you, I'm willing to do it, as long as my wife is satisfied."

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, then found his serious expression amusing. "You're making it sound like I'm being unreasonable and asking you to be a bully."

"I would be honored to be a bully for you," Chi Moqing said with a gentle smile.

Yan Zuozuo pursed her lips, her eyes sparkling with happiness, but she said coquettishly, "I don't want a bully husband, it's embarrassing."

"Mrs. Chi, you're clearly taking advantage of the situation and acting innocent. You should be punished!" He pinched her nose and chuckled.

Regarding the Chi family's bidding case, Yan Zuozuo had consistently avoided giving the design director a direct answer. Similarly, the company hadn't thoroughly investigated the matter of the design drawings being leaked online. Yan Zuozuo suggested reporting it to the police, but the design director refused, citing a desire to avoid causing further negative impact on the company. Yan Zuozuo found this unreasonable behavior increasingly strange.

Because of losing the competition group, Yan Zuozuo, who was usually very busy, became idle. She could occasionally hear Cai Keren and Mu Yaoqian's sarcastic remarks, but she didn't pay them any mind. She was only repeatedly considering whether it was still worth staying at Fanhua Construction. Although she had an inseparable affection for this place, honestly, there was nothing here worth staying for, neither the things nor the people.

However, before Yan Zuozuo decided to resign, another member of the competition team, Cui Guangyuan, actually resigned ahead of time. They didn't have much of a relationship, but Cui Guangyuan sent her a text message saying he wanted to treat her to dinner as a farewell gift.

Yan Zuozuo found it strange, but considering they were colleagues, she couldn't refuse. So the two arranged to meet at a restaurant that was quite far from the company, and she only realized how odd it was when she arrived.

In the restaurant, Yan Zuozuo first held up a wine glass and said some polite words wishing him all the best in the future. Cui Guangyuan just smiled and then drank a glass of wine in one gulp, looking very depressed.

"Don't you think it's strange that I asked you out alone?" Cui Guangyuan asked, putting down his wine glass.

Yan Zuozuo paused for a moment before saying, "It is indeed very strange. Could it be related to the design drawings?"

Cui Guangyuan was visibly taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "You know?"

Yan Zuozuo shook her head, her tone indifferent, "I don't know anything, but I'm not stupid either. The design drawings were posted online, and the company clearly doesn't care. It's hard not to suspect something fishy is going on."

"I'm sorry." Cui Guangyuan lowered his head in remorse, his eyes filled with regret. "Actually, I did all of this."

Yan Zuozuo was completely stunned. Her hand gripping the cup tightened, and her eyes widened. "Why?"

Cui Guangyuan hung his head, his hands clenched tightly. "I need money. Someone offered me 100,000 yuan if I put the design online. And if I can design another set of drawings in the shortest time, they'll give me an extra 200,000 yuan. I really need this money, so I agreed."

He knew it was immoral, but his mother was seriously ill and bedridden, his wife had broken her leg, and he had a baby at home who needed feeding. He had no other choice. To prolong his mother's life, to pay for his wife's medical treatment, and to send his child to school, he had no choice but to do these things against his conscience.

Yan Zuozuo listened quietly. She had been angry, but seeing the tears in Cui Guangyuan's eyes, she felt a sudden pang of sympathy. Finally, she asked softly, "Who told you to do this?"
