Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 85 I don't want to leave for even a minute

Yan Zuozuo looked at him amusedly, and after a while she helped explain, "No, actually, I've gained three pounds. Whenever Mo Qing has time, he cooks delicious food for me, and I feel like I'm about to become fat."

"Really? But I still think you've lost weight." Chi's mother took her hand and led her to the dining table. "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Hurry up and eat breakfast. Don't be like those girls outside who go on diets all the time. What's so attractive about being skin and bones? People should just be healthy. I don't know when this trend of valuing thinness as beauty started. It's really bizarre."

Yan Zuozuo glanced at the behemoth in front of her and was completely dumbfounded. She couldn't help but glare at Chi Moqing reproachfully; it was all his fault. Turning to Chi's mother, she smiled ingratiatingly, "Mom, this is too much; I can't eat it all."

"It's alright, it's alright, eat as much as you can. This is what Mo Qing requested. Give him what you can't finish," said Mother Chi cheerfully. But after a pause, she added, "It's still better to eat more."

Yan Zuozuo smiled wryly and sat down to eat breakfast with Chi Moqing. Seeing that she really couldn't eat anymore, Chi Moqing took her food and swallowed it all.

While he was washing dishes in the kitchen, his phone rang. It was his assistant calling, saying there was a problem with the bidding process and asking him to come over and take a look.

Chi Moqing looked apologetically at Yan Zuozuo, then at his mother, "I have to go back to the company now."

Chi's mother was displeased and looked at him irritably, "No matter how big other companies are, they're not as busy as you. What's wrong with you? Does the world stop turning without you?"

Chi Moqing knew he was in the wrong, so he reached out and hugged her. "Okay, okay, I was wrong. This is the only time, and I won't do it again, okay?"

"Get lost, I've heard that so many times." Mrs. Chi snorted coldly, saying unhappily.

Seeing Chi Moqing's troubled expression, Yan Zuozuo quickly smiled and said, "He's gone, I'll stay and keep Mom company."

Chi's mother's eyes lit up, and her mood instantly brightened. Holding Yan Zuozuo's hand, she said, "My daughter-in-law is the best." Then, she turned and gave Chi Moqing a disdainful look. "Go on, go on, what are you standing there for? Whether you come back or not is irrelevant. I'll just pretend I don't have a son like you." With his daughter-in-law here, why would she be afraid her son wouldn't come back?

Chi Moqing chuckled; her mood really did change faster than flipping through a book. He called his assistant and asked him to schedule a meeting an hour later. After hanging up, he turned to look at Yan Zuozuo, "Be careful, I'll be back as soon as possible."

Yan Zuozuo nodded and smiled serenely. Chi's mother was secretly pleased and teased, "What, are you afraid I'll eat your wife?"

Chi Moqing didn't react much, but Yan Zuozuo's face turned red, and she urged guiltily, "You should go quickly, work is important."

puff!

Mrs. Chi chuckled softly. Seeing the two being so affectionate, she excused herself to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch and left, leaving only Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing behind. Yan Zuozuo's face turned even redder, and she punched Chi Moqing's chest a few times.

Chi Moqing chuckled and pinched her nose: "Silly girl, what's there to be shy about?"

"Chi Moqing!" Yan Zuozuo growled, her face burning hot, almost hot enough to boil an egg.

Chi Moqing really didn't want to leave, but time was of the essence, so he had to go. He took Yan Zuozuo's hand and whispered, "See me off."

Yan Zuozuo nodded, not forgetting to thoughtfully remind her, "Be careful on the road. If you're eating out for lunch, try not to drink alcohol."

"Okay, I'll listen to my wife." Chi Moqing hugged her. "What should I do? I don't want to leave you for even a minute."

Yan Zuozuo was both amused and annoyed: "Stop fooling around, let's go." She straightened his clothes, a smile playing on her lips, and a glint of admiration flashing in her eyes, "My husband is the most handsome."

Chi Moqing chuckled softly, "My wife is the most beautiful." He kissed her forehead, "Go to sleep if you're tired. I put some pickled plums in your bag. If you feel nauseous, eat a couple. If you don't want to eat anything, just tell Mom. Don't force yourself."

"I know, I'm not a child anymore," Yan Zuozuo muttered softly, feeling sweet inside.

Dudu!

A car horn sounded, and the two looked over to see Chi Ran with an amused expression. "It's not like we're acting in a TV show, why all this fuss?"

Yan Zuozuo's face, which had just cooled down, turned red again. She buried her face in Chi Moqing's arms and didn't dare to lift her head.

Chi Moqing glared at Chi Ran helplessly: "You have no manners. I'm leaving now. Take good care of your sister-in-law."

"I understand. I will treat your wife like Empress Dowager Cixi. Don't worry." Chi Ran got out of the car with a bag in her hand and hugged Yan Zuozuo tightly. "When you come back, I guarantee that your wife will be perfectly healthy."

Chi Moqing reached out and tapped her on the head: "You'd better be this obedient." After saying that, he looked at Yan Zuozuo again before getting into the car.

Yan Zuozuo didn't look away until he disappeared. She turned her head, about to tell Chi Ran she was going back, when she saw Chi Ran's ambiguous gaze. Her face flushed red, feeling incredibly embarrassed. Why did they always laugh at her when she came here? Ugh!

Chi Moqing didn't come back at noon, so the responsibility of taking care of Yan Zuozuo fell on Chi's mother and Chi Ran, as he was not at the dinner table.

Chi's mother said, "Zuo Zuo, you're too thin, eat more." So she put the biggest chicken leg in her bowl.

"Sister-in-law, have some soup. Mom made this soup especially for you." Chi Ran placed the soup in front of her.

"Eat some vegetables, a balanced diet of meat and vegetables, for good health."

"Yes, yes, have some spinach, and eggplant too..."

Looking at the mountain of food piling up in her bowl, Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but smile wryly, "Mom, Xiaoran, I can do it myself."

"Just eat it, it's all for you to nourish your body. It's our own home, don't be shy," said Mrs. Chi.

Yan Zuozuo smiled shyly, feeling very lucky to have a mother-in-law like Chi's mother. She had no airs of a mother-in-law and treated her the same as her own daughter. Everyone says mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships are difficult, but she was fortunate to have met such a good mother-in-law.

"Mom, Xiaoran, you eat too." Yan Zuozuo served them food, and also served Mr. Chi. The meal was quite pleasant. Remembering that it was Mr. Chi's birthday, Yan Zuozuo, holding a glass of juice, said, "Dad, happy birthday."

In the Chi family, birthdays are usually celebrated in the evening, and everyone gathers together to eat and chat.

Mr. Chi was clearly pleased: "Mo Qing, you're so busy, it must be hard on you. Come over whenever you have time, and don't pay any attention to that kid. If he bullies you, tell your parents, and we'll teach him a lesson for you."

Yan Zuozuo smiled shyly: "He's very good to me."

Chi Ran took a bite of meat and said while chewing, "I also think that my brother wouldn't bully my sister-in-law. You didn't see how hot it was, it's so sour."

Yan Zuozuo blushed and lowered her head to shovel rice into her mouth.

Chi Ran laughed heartily, and seeing Yan Zuozuo's embarrassed expression, teased, "Sister-in-law, you're so cute! My brother has struck gold!" These days, where can you find a woman who blushes as soon as she speaks?

Yan Zuozuo didn't know what to say, so she just ate her rice in silence. Chi Ran was a real character, never quiet for a moment, and looked at Yan Zuozuo with a sly grin, asking, "Zuozuo, how did you and my brother meet? Tell me."

Yan Zuozuo's hand, which was eating, froze, and she glanced awkwardly at Chi's mother. Chi's mother also looked on with great interest. In recent years, aside from seeing Cai Qingqing constantly around him, she hadn't really seen any other women. But judging from Chi Moqing's demeanor, it didn't seem like he was dating Cai Qingqing. In short, it was a complicated issue, and Chi's mother was very confused.

Yan Zuozuo's smile grew increasingly guilty. After a long pause, she stammered, "We've known each other since we were kids... and then, and then I've been waiting..."

Huh? Childhood sweethearts, innocent and carefree?

Chi Ran immediately became interested, her eyes full of anticipation. "More details, more details." Come to think of it, how come she didn't know her older brother had a childhood sweetheart? When did this happen? The secrecy was truly remarkable.

Yan Zuozuo pursed her lips and explained her relationship with Chi Moqing. Chi's mother and Chi Ran were stunned, and even Chi's father looked surprised.

Chi Ran looked Yan Zuozuo's face up and down, making Yan Zuozuo feel embarrassed. Suddenly, she slammed her hand on the table and said, "Ha! No wonder! I felt that my sister-in-law looked familiar when we first met. It turns out that she looks a bit like Cai Qingqing. No, no, no, it should be said that Cai Qingqing looks a bit like my sister-in-law. No wonder my brother treats her differently."

Both Chi's mother and father were taken aback, and gave Chi Ran a reproachful look, "Why did you bring up that woman for no reason?"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Chi Ran awkwardly touched his nose and chuckled, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry."

Yan Zuozuo smiled and said, "It's okay, your brother told me about this."

"Huh?" Was his older brother too clueless or too confident to even tell his sister-in-law something like this?

Yan Zuozuo nodded, her face flushed, and repeated Chi Moqing's words. Then she whispered, "So I'm really fine. You don't need to hide Cai Qingqing from me. Besides, it's all in the past."

"I knew my brother wouldn't fall for a hypocritical woman like Cai Qingqing. I've disliked her for a long time. But I couldn't voice my opinion because my brother was around. Haha, now the truth is finally out." Chi Ran patted her leg and said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, congratulations! You've found such a rare and devoted lover like my brother. You're so lucky!"

Yan Zuozuo was both amused and exasperated, but she also felt that Chi Ran's words made a lot of sense. She was indeed very lucky to have met Chi Moqing and to have married into this harmonious and warm family.

“I used to think my brother was all about working himself to the bone, and that he might be married to his job for the rest of his life. But I never expected that as soon as he met my sister-in-law, he would turn into a romantic prince charming in an instant. It’s so enviable! I want to find a man like that to love me in the future.”

"Isn't that child from Yaoyuan good enough? He sends you flowers, has candlelight dinners, and even sings for you. What more could you want?" Chi's mother coldly extinguished Chi Ran's fantasies.

"Mom, are you kidding me? Lu Yaoyuan and I are like an older brother and a younger sister, there's no passion between us at all. He sent me flowers and sang to me, I'll have nightmares every night." Chi Ran's eyes were wide open, her lips were pouting, and she looked frightened.

Chi's mother gave her a disapproving look: "I only have one son, Mo Qing. How come I don't know that Yao Yuan is also my son? You're already twenty-six or twenty-seven, and you're not bad-looking. Why is it so hard for you to get married?"

Chi Ran glared angrily at her mother, then shoveled rice into her mouth. "She brings this up every time she comes back. It's so annoying!"

Chi's mother ignored her and continued to serve food to Yan Zuozuo. Yan Zuozuo smiled bitterly, forced back the urge to vomit, and ate it all in one gulp. She realized that Chi Moqing understood her better than she understood herself.
