C196 She Couldn't Stand It Any Longer
As usual, Lin Ruoxi, dressed in a flowery nightgown, was already sitting alone at a huge table, eating her breakfast slowly. Seeing Yang Chen enter, she looked at him coldly as if greeting him and then continued eating.
Nanny Wang, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen with a plate of golden egg pancakes. When she saw Yang Chen, who hadn't come home for the whole night, she immediately greeted him and let him sit down. She smiled and said, "Young Master, I knew you would be back at this time. The bowls and chopsticks are all prepared for you."
Yang Chen looked at the table, and indeed, there were two pairs of chopsticks. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Nanny Wang trusted him so much, but he just happened to be back at the right time. If it wasn't for the fact that Qiangwei was sleeping like a pig, he might have had to fight for a while before he could return.
"Nanny Wang, don't prepare too much for me if I don't return home tonight." Yang Chen said honestly.
Nanny Wang said disapprovingly, "Whether you come back or not is a matter of life and death. It's more like a family to prepare an extra serving, since I have nothing better to do anyways. "
With that, Nanny Wang happily returned to the kitchen.
Yang Chen sat down and faced Lin Ruoxi. He was about to scoop up a bowl of rice porridge when he noticed that a newspaper from this morning was placed beside the electric cooker.
It was a Zhonghai City newspaper. On the page that he opened, there was a line of big black words — "A rich couple of the second generation kissing their luxurious car, the night market outside the city is boiling"! Below the headline, in an enlarged photo, a sapphire blue sports car stood out. A young man and woman were hugging each other and kissing passionately.
Leaving aside the matter of the fuerdai, no matter how Yang Chen saw it, the couple were definitely him and Qiangwei!
Even if he didn't shoot the front, as long as it was someone familiar with him, he would be able to distinguish the silhouette from the back!
Swish! He's in the papers!?
This newspaper was obviously the one Lin Ruoxi, who had read it earlier this morning, had consciously opened it and placed it next to the electric cooker. However, she was currently quietly eating her breakfast without any sadness or joy, as if nothing had happened. It was enough for him to ponder over it.
If it was before, Lin Ruoxi would probably mock him and cast him a disdainful look.
However, after being together for the past few days, the two of them seemed to have become more and more like a couple. In other words, they had gained a certain level of emotional support.
Under such circumstances, Lin Ruoxi could see that she was intimate with other women in the most direct way and even went to the newspapers, but she still kept her cool and didn't say a word. Yang Chen didn't think that Lin Ruoxi didn't care at all. If she didn't care, she wouldn't have asked herself yesterday if she hated her, and if she was in a very bad mood at that.
Thinking about it, he only had one reason. This girl wanted to tell him that she could pretend that she didn't see anything, so he wouldn't feel sorry for her. However, he didn't want to keep grabbing on to her "little braids." She also didn't want to almost kill him and Mo Qianni on purpose. She was also very pitiful and innocent, and needed to understand more than his husband, who was definitely "having an affair".
Just when Yang Chen thought of these details and felt that his wife's idea was a little cute, Lin Ruoxi suddenly stood up and said lightly, "I'm done eating."
Then, expressionlessly, she turned and went upstairs.
Yang Chen remembered his promise to Mo Qianni and said quickly, "Ruoxi, I'll go with Qianni to her hometown next week and talk to you."
Lin Ruoxi stopped at the top of the stairs and answered softly, "Yes, I know."
As Yang Chen expected, Lin Ruoxi didn't ask too much. However, he didn't know that the two women had already gotten over it.
Not long after that, Lin Ruoxi, who had just gone upstairs, came down again. She changed into a casual white chiffon dress and took out a black pouch with snake skin. Her black hair fluttered in the wind like a pure and innocent female student who had just graduated from university.
Originally, Yang Chen thought that this workaholic would have to work all day again, but she suddenly dressed up so sweetly. Yang Chen couldn't help but ask, "Wife, where are you going?"
Lin Ruoxi sat on the doorstep, wearing a pair of flat pink sneakers as she replied, "I'm going to a place, not a night market."
"Cough, cough …"
Yang Chen nearly choked on his omelet as he smiled awkwardly. Although this girl didn't intend to say much about it, she still felt bad about it.
Since Lin Ruoxi had already said so, Yang Chen didn't have the nerve to ask anymore. In fact, he had never blamed her for that bit of animosity from yesterday, and it was only a result of him not getting used to it. Now that he was seen by the people of Zhong Hai, he felt a little guilty at home.
What made Yang Chen most speechless was Nanny Wang. She definitely knew that the one in the newspaper was him, but she still acted so intimate, which made Yang Chen's thick skin feel a little hot.
After they finished talking, Yang Chen called Mo Qianni and told her that he would book a plane ticket to Sichuan Province for Monday. As for how to go to Mo Qianni's hometown in the mountains, he would talk about it there.
Yang Chen watched TV leisurely at home. After Nanny Wang's carefully prepared lunch, he was about to take a nap when his phone vibrated again.
Yang Chen looked and saw that it was Lee Jingjing's phone call.
Yang Chen didn't contact Lee Jingjing again after what Old Lee said last time. Lee Jingjing also didn't call or text him again. This was the first time.
Yang Chen hesitated for a moment as he was afraid that Lee Jingjing might have met with some trouble, but he still picked up the phone: "Jingjing, is there something wrong?"
Lee Jingjing was a little down, "If there's nothing, then can't I talk to Brother Yang?"
Yang Chen sighed from the bottom of his heart, "Jingjing, you should listen to your dad. If there's nothing important, it's better if we don't communicate often."
"I want Brother Yang to go with me to the orphanage to see the children, that won't do, right?" Lee Jingjing asked expectantly.
Yang Chen was a bit upset, but thinking of Old Lee's pleading look, he hardened his heart and said, "Jingjing, you can go by yourself, I want to rest for a while."
Lee Jingjing remained silent for a while. Then, she answered with a "hmm" and hung up the phone.
Yang Chen heard the busy signal from the phone and heaved a sigh of relief. Rejecting this innocent girl was actually very difficult, especially when he thought about the past. Yang Chen felt his heart ache a little.
However, since he was living in an ordinary society, he couldn't do whatever he wanted like he did in the past. If just because he doted on Lee Jingjing, he would make it difficult for Old Lee and his wife. Yang Chen would feel sorry for them.
It wasn't until they finished dinner that Lin Ruoxi came home from outside, looking a bit tired. In her hand was a large black paper bag.
Yang Chen thought that the bag contained some documents or books. He looked at it and then continued to sit on the sofa to watch TV. He didn't pay much attention. However, Lin Ruoxi walked to him with the bag and put it in front of him.
"What is it?" Yang Chen was puzzled. Could it be for him?
Lin Ruoxi pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and said somewhat embarrassedly: "It's autumn now, and the temperature in the mountains is especially low. The altitude over at the Sichuan Province is also high, so next week, remember to bring this clothes over."
Only then did Yang Chen notice the words "Burberry" on the corner of the black bag.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Lin Ruoxi would bring him a present. She had even specially prepared it for him to go out next week — to go with another woman.
Under Lin Ruoxi's expectant gaze, Yang Chen tactfully took out the Barbary trench coat from the big bag.
This windbreaker was made of thick material, dark colored with large checked patterns, and had the style of Barbary's classic improved British military uniform. It gave off a calm and capable feeling.
Yang Chen knew that this kind of British luxury brand windbreaker was not cheap. The one in his hand was at least 3 months of his salary!
"These clothes aren't cheap, right? Even if Yu Lei's department store is selling these things, you don't need to choose something of such high quality. I also don't wear them often." Yang Chen was quite impressed with Lin Ruoxi's sight. After all, she was a woman who was immersed in fashion all year round. Choosing clothes for men was an easy task.
Lin Ruoxi frowned slightly when she heard Yang Chen's words and asked softly, "You don't like it?"
Seeing that she was a bit disappointed, Yang Chen smiled and said, "I just said it's too expensive, I like the clothes a lot."
As if she had been relieved of a heavy burden, the corner of Lin Ruoxi's mouth slightly raised, "Not expensive, it's less than thirty thousand."
With that, Lin Ruoxi turned around and walked back upstairs quickly like a light breeze, as if she was unwilling to stay any longer in front of Yang Chen.
Yang Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud. Nearly thirty thousand yuan per set of clothes, only this rich lady thought it wasn't expensive. Looking at Lin Ruoxi's brisk footsteps, it was obvious that she was definitely happy in her heart. She was also shy about buying clothes for the first time, so she "ran away".
Nanny Wang was just about to call the two out for dinner, but when she saw Lin Ruoxi running upstairs like a frightened rabbit, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master, what happened to Miss again?"
Yang Chen grinned, raised the new clothes in his hand and said, "Her husband praised her, so she can't take it anymore."
Nanny Wang was also an intelligent woman. She immediately understood what he meant and couldn't help but giggle with her mouth covered. Her eyes were like crescent moons, full of joy.
Yang Chen sighed in his heart. At this time, Lin Ruoxi, who looked so cute and innocent, could no longer tell that it was the ruthless executioner who had plotted to destroy two listed companies. The thoughts of a woman really went unfathomably deep.
