1692 Black-bellied Man
Chi Shuyan was simply struck by a bolt from the blue and was stupefied as she replied to her father. She didn’t know how she returned the phone to Grandpa or how she went upstairs. When she went upstairs to her room and met the man who had just come out of the study, Chi Shuyan snapped out of her trance.
When Qi Zhenbai saw his wife come back, he wrapped his arm around her waist out of habit and gently led her back to their room. Inside, he immediately kissed her on the lips. He pressed her against the door and kissed her fiercely for a long time until she was panting and her face was red with anger. Only then was the man satisfied, and he let go. He asked gently, “Did you just come back? Has the matter been resolved?”
Chi Shuyan gasped and subconsciously nodded, before she shook her head.
When she saw this man now, she recalled what her father had said to her on the phone just now. Why was her father so sure that she was pregnant?
!!
At the thought of her father’s exhortation on the phone, Chi Shuyan felt guilty and wanted to vomit blood.
She was quite suspicious of the man in front of her and took a few more looks at him. Frankly speaking, the only possibility was that it was this man who had lied through his teeth and told her father that she was pregnant.
But why?
Could it be that when this man chatted with her father, the two of them misunderstood each other?
Taking in his wife’s hazy eyes and dazed appearance, Qi Zhenbai wanted to kiss her again. His heart melted into a mess and he stared unblinkingly at her, wishing he could stuff her inside him so that they were stuck together all the time.
Qi Zhenbai had always been a man of action. Thinking this, he immediately leaned over to kiss her again. Chi Shuyan turned her face away, and the man’s face inexplicably darkened.
Chi Shuyan was about to speak, when the man picked her up first. Chi Shuyan was shocked and subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck. Only then did the man’s slightly dark face lighten as he revealed a smile. He had his wife wrap her arms around him as he strode toward the couch inside their room.
When he sat down on the couch, the man didn’t let go, and simply had his wife sit on his lap. He pressed his forehead to his wife’s and asked in a deep voice, “What were you thinking about just now?”
In their room, Chi Shuyan let the man do whatever he wanted. She sat on the man’s lap and let him hug her without struggling. She didn’t reply at once, and just looked at him suspiciously again. After a while, she said, “Grandpa called my dad just now and let me talk to him for a while.”
“Mm! Then?”
Chi Shuyan wanted to repeat her father’s words to the man, but not only was she not pregnant, she had been dumbfounded when she heard her father’s words. What if she misunderstood and blamed this man wrongly?
Still, Chi Shuyan simply gritted her teeth and said begrudgingly, “My dad… seems to have misunderstood something. He seems to think I’m pregnant!” You didn’t say anything to my dad before, did you? She silently swallowed the last sentence. Given her understanding of this man, he probably wouldn’t talk nonsense.
Seeing that the man was silent, Chi Shuyan was afraid that her father would rush back in a few days and immediately settle accounts with him, so she immediately added, “Uh… Before my father comes back, you better prepare yourself and explain it to him!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t notice the man’s eyes flash when she spoke. His expression was still very reserved and calm. He continued, “What else did Dad say?”
Since she had already brought up the pregnancy, there was nothing else to hide. Chi Shuyan immediately told him that her father had agreed to their marriage, as long as she was happy.
A smile immediately appeared on the man’s cold face. On a closer look, his eyes were filled with a genuine smile. He looked really good. The more Chi Shuyan looked, the more she felt that something was wrong. The man suddenly leaned close to her ear and said, “Okay, Wife, let’s work harder tonight and try not to disappoint Dad.”
Chi Shuyan almost choked at the man’s last sentence. She coughed softly and kicked the man a few more times to remind him that he was focusing on the wrong subject.
The man’s body was hard. Kicking him was like kicking an iron plate. The man’s expression didn’t change, and his lips curved up in an unmistakable smile. The man feigned innocence and confusion. “Wife, why do I feel that Dad is quite anxious to have a grandson? In that case, we naturally have to be filial to our elders!”
“Get lost!”
While the couple was bickering, there was a knock on the door. Chi Shuyan immediately moved away and sat obediently on the couch, and had the man open the door. As for getting pregnant, she would think about it after graduation. She was quite glad that Grandpa hadn’t heard anything when she answered her father’s call in the living room just now. If he had, there would definitely be no peace at the old residence. If he really thought that she was pregnant, that would be a huge joke.
She didn’t want Grandpa to be disappointed. Kids could wait until after graduation. There was nothing to say now.
Seeing the man open the door, Chi Shuyan thought of how she had asked the man to investigate Yuan Yuan. She didn’t know if their minds were connected, but before the man opened the door, he turned around and said to her, “I already had someone sort out the things you wanted to check before and send the materials over. I’ll give them to you later.”
“Okay!”
The door opened to reveal Qi Yunchang. Qi Yunchang was utterly afraid of her cousin, who had always been unsmiling and imposing. She usually subconsciously avoided him, but now, she braced herself and said, “Brother, the butler said that someone is looking for you outside.”
Qi Zhenbai nodded without saying much.
Qi Yunchang was in a hurry to leave, when a familiar and intimate voice came from inside. “Yunchang? Come in and have a seat.”
Qi Yunchang was stunned when she saw her cousin change into a different person. He was no longer as unsmiling and cold as he said gently to her, “Your sister-in-law is calling for you. Come in and have a seat! Accompany her. It just so happens that I have to go out for a while!”
“Oh!”
