Chapter 38 — Blush

Chi Zhengzheng beckoned, Wen Sisi came closer, then Chi Zhengzheng finally stood up, got closer to her, and whispered in her ear-

"Hey, could I leave earlier?"

Wen Sisi's eyebrows furrowed together for a moment, she didn't know why, she had a terrifying feeling in her heart that something was changing, it was inexplicably uncomfortable.

She couldn't help but say in coldly: "If you want to go, go."

After saying that, she was ready to leave holding her cake.

Chi Zhengzheng held her hand and trembled slightly when she heard Sisi.

She said again: "You send me out yourself, I'm a little scared."

"What?" Wen Sisi was taken aback.

Chi Zhengzheng lowered her voice, gritted her teeth-

"I didn't know that this necklace was so f*cking expensive. I'm staying here now, but all I can think of are the theft movies I've watched. I feel like the only thing surrounding me are thieves, who aim at the necklace on my neck every minute, and conveniently, shoot me to death! F*ck, it's like being on the edge of my seat! I only dare to sit in the hall and don't dare go anywhere else!"

Wen Sisi: "…"

She suddenly laughed and gave Chi Zhengzheng a disgusted glance: "Who would've known, how dare you bring out Dreams of Deep Sea with such little guts! Eat this piece of birthday cake I cut, I'll send you out."

Her eyes showed disgust, but the corners of her mouth kept rising higher and higher.

Mm, it was still the same Chi Zhengzheng.

Whether it was wearing a torn sweater or wearing a piece of jewelry worth 230 million dollars, it was still the same Chi Zhengzheng.

That's great.

Chi Zhengzheng glared at her, not knowing what to say.

From the time Xu Jiahong mentioned that Dreams of Deep Sea was worth 230 million, she knew that the necklace around her neck was the real deal. How could someone like Wen Yu give her a knockoff?!

But she couldn't afford it!

The moment she thought of a house in Wangjiang Manor hanging around her neck, her whole being wasn't good.

After taking a bite of the cake, her heart still felt very complicated.

Next to her, Wen Sisi lowered her voice and said curiously: "I'll find you later, I want to see what Dreams of Deep Sea is like, I've never seen such expensive jewelry."

Chi Zhengzheng: "Look now, as soon as I get back, I'll return it."

Wen Sisi: "… Alright."

She leaned closer, took a closer look, and reached out her hand to touch it.

"Are you done?" Chi Zhengzheng asked.

Wen Sisi let go of her hand and sighed: "It's really perfect, really charming and so enviable."

"If you don't think about its price, you wouldn't be so envious." Chi Zhengzheng rolled her eyes and sighed: "To be honest before I knew the price, I didn't even think its price. At this moment, I just want to leave quickly and return it quickly, if I lost it, I wouldn't be able to compensate for the loss even if I sold myself."

Why didn't Wen Yu tell her?

If he had told her, she wouldn't have worn it out!

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll send you out." Wen Sisi held back her laughter.

So, the two of them walked out.

Wen Sisi: "Should I ask the driver to send you?"

"Sure, find a reliable driver from your family." Chi Zhengzheng had a serious expression.

In her mind, several more jewelry theft movies flashed by. When she watched those movies, she felt it was pretty cool and awesome, but when she had the exorbitant-priced jewelry on her neck, she didn't feel that way anymore…

Said simply, her legs were weak.

"Wen Sisi." Suddenly spoke out from behind.

Chi Zhengzheng and Wen Sisi were taken aback at the same time, and they looked back.

– Wen Yiran walked towards them.

"Step aside for a moment, I want to have a word with Chi Zhengzheng." Wen Yiran said to Wen Sisi.

Wen Sisi was taken aback and subconsciously glanced at Chi Zhengzheng, hesitating for a while.

She didn't dare to offend Wen Yiran, everything she had still depended on the Wen family's love for her, but she was afraid that Chi Zhengzheng wouldn't want to, she knew that after the car accident Chi Zhengzheng didn't like Wen Yiran anymore.

– She likes Wen Yu.

So, for a moment, she was a little unsure whether she should leave or not.

Knowing her dilemma, Chi Zhengzheng nodded at her.

Wen Sisi glanced at her gratefully and backed away, but didn't go too far, watching them from afar.

Wen Yiran stood right in front of Chi Zhengzheng, looking deeply at her, his eyes full of complexity.

He had been paying attention to her tonight, and he couldn't move his gaze away from her. Until she left just now, he couldn't help chasing her out.

An Qinru, who he already liked, pulled him, but he subconsciously waved and strode out.

"What's the matter, say it." Chi Zhengzheng's voice was somewhat impatient.

Wen Yiran looked at her but didn't speak.

He had never taken a closer look at her beauty before, but since he took a closer look, he discovered how she made people unable to move their eyes away. She had this ability – she was always the one the most eye-catching one in the crowd.

"I'll leave if there's nothing else." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chi Zhengzheng rolled her eyes and turned around to leave.

Wen Yiran grabbed her abruptly, exerted force with his hands, pulled her into his arms, and his grip tightened.

"Wen Yiran! What are you doing? Let go of me!" Chi Zhengzheng was stunned and struggled desperately to get away, but Wen Yiran's hand was still grasping her arm.

Was this person crazy?

"Chi Zhengzheng, you win. If you used Wen Yu to stimulate me, then you succeeded, I can't take my eyes off of you now." Wen Yiran's voice carried a hint of gnashing his teeth. (t/n: displaying extreme anger)

Chi Zhengzheng was taken aback and looked at him.

If Wen Yiran looked closely at her expression he would have found that her expression was filled with the words – Holy sh*t! Where did this psycho come from!

However he didn't look carefully, his heart was filled with all kinds of emotions, there were too many chaotic thoughts inside his head, his voice dimmed –

"Leave Wen Yu, we… we'll try to get along."

It was hard for him to accept to slap his own face for what he had said and done in the past, but he really didn't want Chi Zhengzheng to go back to that place with Wen Yu.

Chi Zhengzheng: "???"

She was stunned as if she couldn't believe her ears.

Before she, who was extremely stunned, could say anything, there was a gust of wind next to her, a man rushed over, pulled her into his arms with one hand, and swung his other hand fiercely at Wen Yiran.

"Bang-" With two punches, Wen Yiran was knocked to the ground.

Chi Zhengzheng's head slammed into a solid chest, and a familiar down-to-earth smell came over her.

– It was Wen Yu!

She raised her head abruptly, and in her sight, Wen Yu's jaw was dense, and the blue veins on his neck were bulging, like a lone wolf who had been provoked and angered. His pair of eyes stared at Wen Yiran with murderous intent.

As if the next moment, he would rush up and bite Wen Yiran to death.

His hands were even trembling slightly, his lips were slightly open, and he gritted his teeth, one word at a time: "Wen, Yiran, you, are, looking, for, death!"

Wen Yiran, who was knocked to the ground, was taken aback for a while before raising his hand and touching the blood at the corner of his mouth.

Wen Yu… actually hit him?

He and Wen Yu have always been at odds since they were young. Apart from the time he just arrived at the Wen house, they never had a fight, only when he just arrived at the Wen house, Wen Yu beat him because he grabbed his things.

But later, probably knowing that there was no benefit in hitting him, Wen Yu never hit him again.

He never expected that because of Chi Zhengzheng, he actually did it.

Looking at Wen Yu's eyes, Wen Yiran had no doubt-

Wen Yu liked Chi Zhengzheng.

And now, Wen Yu wanted to kill him.

His heart inexplicably trembled, but it was soon covered up by anger again.

With force in his hands, Wen Yiran propped himself off the ground and got up, with a smile at the corner of his mouth taunting: "Wen Yu, how long have you been Chi Zhengzheng's fiancé? Before that, she has been my fiancée, she liked me for so many years, do you think you can really have this woman?"

Wen Yu's hand trembled slightly, the veins on his forehead throbbed, and he gritted his teeth.

At that moment, violence was rampant in his eyes.

"Don't go near her again." Wen Yu said.

"Why? Wen Yu, you aren't worthy of Chi Zhengzheng, she likes me, and now that she has succeeded and I'm also attracted to her, do you think you still have a chance?" Wen Yiran's face was full of mockery, the pain in his cheek made him feel humiliated and angry.

Wen Yu's teeth clenched tighter, he thought of Chi Zhengzheng's years of liking Wen Yiran…

Wen Yu lowered his head and looked at Chi Zhengzheng with fear in his complicated eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "Zhengzheng, let's go."

After saying that, he wrapped his arms around Chi Zhengzheng, and then he was about to leave, panicking.

– Wen Yu didn't dare to think about what it would be like if Chi Zhengzheng left him. How could he let go of the warmth he had held in his hands for such a short time?

– Feeling the warmth and then losing that warmth, made him even more uncomfortable than being killed.

Chi Zhengzheng could feel the slight trembling of the man holding her, she said: "Wait!"

Wen Yu didn't stop. For the first time, the hand holding her arm was so hard, as if he wanted to forcibly take her away as if he was afraid that she would say something that would scare him.

– This is the first time that Wen Yu had known what fear was after living for more than 20 years.

"Wen Yu! Do you think you can get her just because you took Zhengzheng away?! That's impossible, what doesn't belong to you, will never belong to you!" Wen Yiran shouted.

Wen Yu stumbled on his feet and finally stopped.

Chi Zhengzheng looked up, Wen Yu was also looking at her, his expression was… desperate?

She was a little surprised, she didn't understand what Wen Yu was afraid of, she patted his arm, then turned to look at Wen Yiran.

Wen Yu opened his mouth, but couldn't make any sound.

Behind her back, Wen Yiran was also looking at her, and when she saw her turn her head, there was a proud smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chi Zhengzheng looked at him and took a deep breath: "Wen Yiran! Can you stop being narcissistic?" I'll tell you again, I don't like you. I don't like you at all. I used to be blind and muddled. Now I'm awake. Seeing you makes me feel bored. How could I like you? I beg you not to be so narcissistic, can you stay away from me?"

The smile at the corner of Wen Yiran's mouth froze, and he looked at her in disbelief.

Wen Yu was also taken aback, looking closely at her who was in his arms.

Chi Zhengzheng seemed to be about to finish saying what she was holding in her heart at once, and continued: "Seriously, even if every man in this world were dead, I wouldn't like you, such a narcissistic, cocky, short-lasting and lacking in quality man! Also, don't mock Wen Yu anymore. Every time you mock him, I think you are like a fool. You can't even compare a strand of Wen Yu's hair. Who was the one who gave you the confidence to make you so proud?"

The phrases "short-lasting and lacking in quality" were back, and she even added "narcissistic and cocky" to it.

Wen Yiran's breathing became rapid, his eyes widened, and he looked at her in disbelief.

Wen Yu was taken aback, but then the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

There was some distance between Wen Yiran and them, therefore, her voice wasn't small, not far away, Wen Sisi heard it all.

The corners of her mouth twitched and she silently covered her face.

Uh, a moment of silence for her cousin Wen Yiran.

She had long learned how poisonous Chi Zhengzheng's mouth could be, and today it was her cousin's turn…

Not far away, Chi Zhengzheng, who was done scolding, took a deep breath and said the last sentence.

"So, Wen Yiran, please get to know yourself better, be less narcissistic, be more self-aware, and stay away from Wen Yu and me, could you? "

Could you?

Could you?

Could you?

These words echoed in Wen Yiran's mind, like a big stick, a stick that knocked him dizzy and almost unstable.

When Chi Zhengzheng was done speaking, she looked at Wen Yu: "Let's go."

She didn't forget that she was still wearing a house of Wangjiang Manor around her neck!

For a person like Wen Yiran, she actually didn't want to talk nonsense with him, after all, every time she saw him, she sighed at the original owner – what kind of blindness was it?

Even if you didn't know the plot of the original novel, Wen Yu, who was so good-looking and so silently considerate and always appeared when she needed it most, the one who beat the proud and narcissistic Wen Yiran?

But when Wen Yiran provoked Wen Yu, she couldn't stand it.

The person I had a crush on, such a perfect person, why the f*ck was he using words to discredit him?

Yes, in Chi Zhengzheng's opinion, whatever Wen Yiran said about Wen Yu was discredit and slander! It was jealousy!!

Facing her gaze, Wen Yu came back to his senses, his pursed lips raised higher and higher, and his eyes were showing endlessly gentleness, like the frozen ice that melted instantly.

He slowly spoke: "Okay."

And then, he gently held her hand and walked towards the car parked not far away.

Behind his back, Wen Yiran's body flashed, and he was almost hit to the ground. He stared at the backs of the two of them and gritted his teeth.

Wen Sisi walked over, with a careful voice: "Brother Yiran…"

"Get lost-" Wen Yiran waved at her and said angrily.

Immediately, he angrily walked away in the other direction.

Wen Sisi curled her lips but didn't chase after him.

At this moment, Wen Yiran was like a cannonball, why should she follow him to be scolded?

Her eyes looked in the direction that Chi Zhengzheng and Wen Yu left, and she couldn't help grinning, but she cursed under her breath –

"Chi Zhengzheng, if you ruin Lao Tzu's birthday party, you have to make up to Lao Tzu later!" (t/n: Lao Tzu is an arrogant way of saying I/me)

Chi Zhengzheng sat in the passenger seat, next to Wen Yu who was in the driver's seat.

The car wasn't on yet, and the atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Chi Zhengzheng just burst out straightforwardly and felt very pleased, but after calming down, she thought of Wen Yu who was next to her, the root of her ears slowly became red, her face also slowly turned red…

Ah, she was so rough and so vicious just now, wasn't she too unladylike ah?

Would Wen Yu… like her if she was like this?

She covered her face and stammered: "That… I'm actually… Actually, not like this, it's just… it's just that he's such a nuisance…"

Wen Yu didn't say anything.

Chi Zhengzheng's heart thumped.

It was over, Wen Yu really didn't like her like this!

Woo woo woo, she burst out so straightforwardly, was the consequence the crematorium?

"I'll never do it again…" Chi Zhengzheng's voice was mosquito-like and her head hang down.

Wen Yu still didn't make a sound.

She couldn't help but turn her hand-covered face sideways toward Wen Yu, her fingers slowly opened two slits, and her gaze… happened to meet Wen Yu's smiling pair of eyes which were looking at her.

Huh?

"Chi Zhengzheng." Wen Yu said suddenly

"Huh?" Chi Zhengzheng looked at him.

"Let go of your hand." Wen Yu said.

"Oh…" Chi Zhengzheng slowly let go of her hands and showed her somewhat red cheeks.

Her fair cheeks were a shy peachy-pink color, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

She obviously felt that Wen Yu's pupils shrank, and his eyes became sharper, with… aggressiveness?

She blinked, and the aggressiveness in Wen Yu's eyes disappeared, only the bottomless darkness as if it was just an illusion.

And then slowly, he raised his hand, gently rubbed her head, his voice was very soft: "Chi Zhengzheng, I like it, no matter how you are, I like it."

It wasn't just that he liked her, but that he was suppressing the beast in his heart, he didn't dare to let it out indulgently, because… it would scare her.

Chi Zhengzheng: "…" Huh?

She blinked, her big clear eyes looked straight at him and her red ears moved slightly.

So he liked it?

Was it that type of like?

"Chi Zhengzheng." Wen Yu spoke again.

This time his voice was hoarse, but this hoarseness was different from before. It seemed to be suppressing something, with a hint of… ambiguity?

His eyes were even more terrifying as if he was about to eat her in one bite.

When she heard Wen Yu just now call her "Zhengzheng", he didn't know why he lowered his voice and called her "Chi Zhengzheng". There was a unique warmth that belonged to just them.

Umm… anyway, it made Chi Zhengzheng blush.

She didn't hold back, she raised her hand and covered her face again, this time showing her big watery eyes, and as she looked at Wen Yu: "Huh? What's wrong?"
