Chapter 184: Throwing Winks at the Blind

Considering that Xu Qingwu had a hard journey back from her business trip, the week-long longing ended with just one kiss, but they kissed for a long time before and after.

After drinking too much tea in the evening, Xu Qingwu couldn't sleep. Cen Xihuai, who had a regular sleep pattern next to him, had fallen asleep with steady breathing.

After turning over several times, Xu Qingwu took her cell phone and tiptoed out of the master bedroom for fear of disturbing him.

Lying on the big bed in the second bedroom, playing with my phone in the dark.

She opened the forum recommended by Yang Yu and searched for how to pursue men.

However, those who posted were all girls who had not yet confirmed their relationship. There was no one like her who got married first and then pursued someone.

So, Xu Qingwu typed and posted a message.

It's already one o'clock in the morning, and I didn't expect there are so many night owls. Many people replied to her very quickly.

Netizen A: To capture a man, you must first capture his stomach. Give him breakfast, lunch and dinner with love, and he will definitely be very touched!

Netizen B: I knew I wouldn’t see this post for no reason. Last time, I was stood up by that guy who confessed his love to his wife, and I didn’t see any subsequent posts.

Netizen C: I understand you, we're all just wanderers! We're all just a part of the play between Big Brother and his wife.

More and more people responded, more than half of them were victims who were waiting for the follow-up but failed to defeat the big brother, and the other half were enthusiastic netizens who actively gave Xu Qingwu ideas.

Xu Qingwu is having a hot chat with netizens.

"Clear mist."

Cen Xihuai's voice suddenly rang out in the darkness. She was so scared that she almost dropped her phone and quickly sat up.

This is the first time in ages that I've been caught staying up late secretly. Is this a beaver?!

"Close your eyes for a moment, I'll turn on the light."

"Oh, go ahead."

The light in the second bedroom was turned on. Xu Qingwu waited for her eyes to adjust for a while before opening them. Cen Xihuai had already walked in front of her.

She thought he would scold her for being so low, but he just reached out and touched the top of her head, looking worried: "Insomnia again?"

Xu Qingwu hummed: "Why did you wake up?"

Cen Xihuai said in a sad voice, "I was sleeping and my wife disappeared, and I woke up with a fright."

Xu Qingwu was amused by him and explained to him: "I came over here because I was afraid of disturbing you. I'm sorry for scaring you."

"Staying up late is very harmful to your health. How about going back to the master bedroom to sleep?"

"Okay~"

Xu Qingwu stretched out her hands towards him, looking at him with sparkling eyes. Cen Xihuai bent down and picked her up like a princess, carrying her back to the bed in the master bedroom.

After putting her down, Cen Xihuai went out again.

When she came back, she was holding her cat-head cotton slippers and a few fairy tale books, which she had bought when she was coaxing Cen Nan and Cen Bei.

Xu Qingwu couldn't help but laugh: "I'm not a child."

Cen Xihuai tapped her head gently: "Qingwu, please be good."

Xu Qingwu cooperated and said, "Okay, Teacher Cen, what should I do now?"

Cen Xihuai: "Close your eyes."

Xu Qingwu: "Closed."

The adult version of the bedtime story begins.

Cen Xihuai has a very nice voice, deep and magnetic, like a pot of mellow wine, which makes people intoxicated.

Xu Qingwu was lost in thought, and even felt a little envious of their future children for having such a patient and gentle father.

Gradually, Xu Qingwu actually fell asleep.

Hearing her steady breathing, Cen Xihuai stopped reading the story and called her softly.

No one replied, he really fell asleep.

Only then did Cen Xihuai put the book on the bedside table, turn off the light, and gently kiss her forehead.

"Good night, little Qingwu."

Xu Qingwu hummed, turned sideways into his arms, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Saturday.

It was already ten o'clock when Xu Qingwu woke up. There was a message from Cen Xihuai on his mobile phone. He had a lot of things to do at the end of the year and he had to go to the company to work overtime today.

Isn’t that perfect!

So, Xu Qingwu opened the cooking app on his phone and started studying.

Like many young people today, she washes her hands at every step of the cooking process. She washes them after cutting peppers and beating eggs. Regardless of how the dish is cooked, her hands are already peeling.

In the end, we had to ask Yang Ma to help and we were able to prepare this loving lunch.

Xu Qingwu used to work for Cenjing Group.

Cen Jing implements a two-day weekend off, but in large groups there are always people who like to involuntarily compete with each other, so there are quite a few people coming and going during meal times.

Hearing that she was coming, Cen Xihuai had been waiting downstairs. As soon as he saw her, he took her upstairs.

There were many people secretly looking at her, and Xu Qingwu tried hard to maintain the image of a graceful and elegant president's wife.

Cen Xihuai: "Why did you suddenly think of cooking for me? Are you bored at home?"

Xu Qingwu: "..."

What I mean is, she is so bored that she doesn't know how to watch TV, eat snacks and play games, but she has to suffer this?

The charity lunch operation was declared a failure.

For fear of disturbing his work, Xu Qingwu did not stay in Cen Xihuai's office for long. On the way back, she came across a flower shop. Xu Qingwu picked a bunch of the most gorgeous red roses through the glass, paid for it and asked the shop to send it to her.

Not long after, I received a WeChat message from Cen Xihuai: "Why did you send me flowers? Do you think my office is too boring?"

Xu Qingwu: "..."

"Why? Why do you think so? He loves learning online, but why would he even look up the meaning of a red rose? He's just flirting with a blind man!"

Xu Qingwu called Cen Yue and Xia Xiaoxiao out for dinner, and while waiting for the food, he complained to them crazily.

"I told you my uncle doesn't know how to OOC!" Cen Yue laughed so hard that she fell forward and backward. "Stop talking about Qingwu. I can't laugh too hard right now."

Xia Xiaoxiao felt the same way and said angrily, "Could it be that Chi Chu was infected after playing with your husband for too long? It's so speechless that it makes people laugh."

Despite her complaints, Xu Qingwu still has a protective side: "My husband is quite nice sometimes. He even read me a bedtime story last night when I couldn't sleep."

Cen Yue acted like a commander, stopping Xu Qingwu from showing off their affection: "Xiaoxiao, you speak first. What stupid thing did your uncle do again?"

Xia Xiaoxiao angrily said, "I paid a junior to pretend to be my boyfriend for Chi Chu, but this guy actually told me not to be distracted by my relationship, otherwise it would delay my PhD. Is this even human language?"

Cen Yue: "This is hilarious! How come you two are the only weirdos to run into one?"

Xia Xiaoxiao: "Stop laughing, I still have one last trick up my sleeve. I don't believe he won't fall for it."

Xu Qingwu humbly asked for advice: "What trick?"

Xia Xiaoxiao: "This trick won't work on you as a married woman."

The word "married" made Xu Qingwu even more worried. She asked her two best friends, "Cen Xihuai is gentle, considerate and responsive to my requests. Do you think he likes me?"

Cen Yue and Xia Xiaoxiao looked at each other, both speechless.

"We've already told you, but you don't believe it?"

"Exactly. His eyes are glued to you. I'm afraid he's dying of love for you."

Xu Qingwu held her chin in her hand and said distressedly, "Then why didn't he confess to me?"

Cen Yue: "Maybe he doesn't realize he likes you? After all, he's never been in a relationship before, so maybe he doesn't quite understand."

Xia Xiaoxiao: "I also think that those involved are confused, while those who are watching can see things more clearly."

One of the two best friends had been in love since childhood, and the other was a well-read woman. Seeing how determined they were, Xu Qingwu made a decision: "Then I'll just confess to him directly."
