Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Lan Yibai heard this and thought of the man’s voice coming from Cen Shuang’s room, all her warmth disappeared. She could only give her the benefit of the doubt…
In the room, Cen Shuang quickly locked the door and returned to the bedroom. She saw Zhuang Hong sitting on the bed, waiting for her to come back. “Are you okay?” Didn’t he fall just now? Why was he so loud?
Zhuang Hong did not answer her question. “Zhuang Xinyan is back.” Although she was his sister, he did not look like he missed her.
Cen Shuang walked to the wardrobe and grabbed a change of clothes. “She’s back. The two of us almost fought. Didn’t you hear us just now?”
‘When she and Zhuang Xinyan were arguing, Zhuang Hong was just lying on the bed. She could not believe that he did not hear it.
Zhuang Hong had heard it clearly. He said calmly, “She can’t beat you.”
Cen Shuang looked at him. “Aren’t you afraid that your sister will be at a disadvantage?”
Zhuang Hong raised his head and looked at her. “She had an easy life growing up in the Zhuang family. She should be at a disadvantage. It’s better than you being at a disadvantage.”
Zhuang Hong’s voice was not loud, but it touched Cen Shuang’s heart. It was like a small pebble thrown into a still lake, causing ripples.
Cen Shuang secretly sized him up. “You don’t want me to suffer?”
She thought that Zhuang Hong would side with his sister. After all, she was his sister. Cen Shuang was just a companion that Lan Yibai had arranged to marry him so that he would not be lonely.
On the third day after Zhuang Xinyan returned, Lan Yibai held a return party for her at the Zhuang family’s courtyard. Although it was set up by Lan Yibai, it was clear that Zhuang Xinyan’s position in the old man’s heart was immeasurable.
Cen Shuang took Zhuang Hong’s living expenses and bought a bunch of luxury items without hesitation. After all, she was also the number one socialite and Zhuang Hong’s secret wife. She could not dress shabbily.
Cen Shuang was dressed in a blue strapless evening gown. Her body glided toward the front of the bed. Her hair was done up casually, revealing her long and beautiful neck. She smiled sweetly at Zhuang Hong, the glint in her eyes was enchanting and affectionate. “Does it look good?”
Zhuang Hong furrowed his brows. His fingertips that were on the keyboard in front of him only typed a string of spaces. His thin lips pursed into a straight line. Under Cen Shuang’s expectant gaze, he said sternly, “It’s not good, it’s too frivolous.”
Cen Shuang could not help but roll her eyes. “What’s wrong with you?” She had carefully picked this dress out, and her makeup was meticulously applied. Even though she was a woman, she was taken with the girl she saw in the mirror, yet Zhuang Hong could not say anything.
Zhuang Hong said seriously, “Change into another dress and let your hair down.” His gaze was fixed on the computer in front of him, but he did not continue reading.
Cen Shuang complained softly, “Which one? I’ve been here in your house for months, and I’m bored to death. A party like this is rare. I bet that your sister is wearing something even more frivolous than me. Why don’t you scold her?”
The man on the bed spoke without batting an eyelid. “If you don’t want to participate, I can get Boyan to inform mom.”
Cen Shuang glared angrily at Zhuang Hong and took another dress into the bathroom. “Can’t you change?”
Zhuang Hong looked at her back and his eyes darkened at her flirtatious figure. After a while, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
Very soon, Cen Shuang changed into a light yellow chiffon dress. The dress reached her calves, exposing her fair and supple calves and feet. Although her arms were hidden behind a layer of lace, she was still wearing a tube top. This half-exposed look… made her look even sexier than she was in the
previous outfit.
Zhuang Hong frowned. “Change again. This won’t do.”
He was not afraid of other men stealing her, he was afraid of other men even thinking about her.
Cen Shuang angrily threw her phone and it landed on Zhuang Hong’s arm. “Whether you like it or not, I’m wearing this. I won’t change. Come down and stop me if you can.”
Cen Shuang said that deliberately, knowing that the muscles in his legs were still too weak. She took the opportunity to grab her handbag from off the table and ran out of the room.
Zhuang Hong was so angry that his expression darkened. “Come back.” He could only watch as the pale yellow figure disappeared from the room.
The main courtyard of the Zhuang family’s old residence was brightly lit. Old Master Zhuang took the opportunity of Zhuang Xinyan’s retum to hold a reception party that meant something more.
Cen Shuang stayed by Lan Yibai’s side and instantly got everyone’s attention. However, when they heard Lan Yibai introducing her, everyone’s curiosity tuned into shock. When they looked at Cen Shuang again, their gazes became intrigued. The former number one socialite in Lin City, the second
daughter of the Cen family, actually did not go down after the Cen family went bankrupt. Instead, she turned around and married into the richest family in Lin City, the Zhuang family. She became the young mistress of the Zhuang family. If this news was from half a year ago, it would definitely make
everyone envious of Cen Shuang. However, when they heard this news now, everyone wore mocking smiles.
Half a year ago, Zhuang Hong was seriously injured in a car accident.
