After watching his friend leave, Zhou Jingming sat down next to Su Xi and casually put his arm around her shoulder. "What's Lin Ye doing here? Did you two make plans together?"

His wife abandoned him, a man brimming with desire, just to meet her male best friend?

This immediately put Zhou Shao in a bad mood.

"Just happened to run into him." Lin Ye's gaze fell on where Zhou Jingming's hand was, a dark glint in his eyes.

Even though he knew the two had already registered their marriage, seeing Su Xi with other men still made him uncomfortable.

Su Xi didn't notice Lin Ye's unusual behavior, but Zhou Jingming saw it clearly.

With a slight smile, he said, "It seems the hospital isn't too busy yet, Dr. Lin still has time to come out for coffee."

The hidden meaning in these words is clear.

Su Xi didn't think that much about it.

Lin Ye, however, sensed a hint of provocation in his voice and chuckled, "You steal moments of leisure from your busy schedule, unlike Young Master Zhou who has free time and lives a vibrant life."

Although the three grew up together, they did not get along.

Su Xi used to think that Lin Ye and Zhou Jingming didn't get along, and the reason was because of her.

After all, Lin Ye was close to her, and she and Zhou Jingming were mortal enemies, so Lin Ye naturally sided with her and naturally distanced himself from Zhou Jingming.

But now, listening to their hostile tone, she felt that something was not quite right.

These two had a physical altercation at school before.

The reason is unknown.

Su Xi was worried that another conflict would break out, and she really didn't know which side to side with.

"Lin Ye, aren't you busy at the hospital? You should go back quickly," Su Xi stepped in to smooth things over.

Lin does indeed have surgeries to perform. She was forced to leave the blind date, and now it's time for her to go back.

"You should go home early too."

Lin also stood up, her gaze falling on Zhou Jingming. "Now that you're married, take responsibility as a husband. If you dare to hurt Xi'er, I'll be the first to not forgive you."

Zhou Jingming casually puffed out smoke, the white smoke enveloping his handsome face and blurring his expression.

Lin also left. Zhou Jingming pulled Su Xi onto his lap, danger looming over her. "Is this what you call having something to do?"

"The Su family suddenly contacted Lin Ye, and I was worried that something had happened, so I came to check on them," Su Xi confessed truthfully.

Zhou Jingming hooked her chin, a half-smile on his face, "What could possibly happen to a grown man like you?"

"No one can say for sure, Su Rou is not necessarily one of them."

This family is full of tricks, and Su Rou is obsessed with Lin Ye, so they're capable of any underhanded tactic.

Zhou Jingming brought his lips close to hers, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, his eyes slightly narrowed. "So you're protecting Lin Ye like this? You like him?"

Before she was six years old, Su Xi loved to follow him around.

But after Lin Ye appeared, Su Xi turned into Lin Ye's shadow.

He has fallen out of favor.

Over the years, Su Xi and Lin Ye's relationship has become increasingly close, to the point that it annoys him.

Lin also likes Su Xi; he knows that.

Zhou Jingming has never been able to figure out what Su Xi is thinking all these years.

"What are you saying? Lin is also my brother."

"And what about me?" Zhou Jingming looked her up and down.

Su Xi leaned closer and kissed the corner of his lips lightly. "You're my husband, don't you think?"

Zhou Jingming didn't believe her nonsense.

If she liked him, how could she not feel the slightest jealousy when she saw him with other women?

"I've already had your luggage packed and sent to the Zhou family. My mom heard you were moving in, so she's personally cooking a feast for you tonight."

He carried her back to her seat and flicked off his cigarette ash.

Does Su Xi have any other choice?

That scoundrel has already acted first and asked for permission later.

However, Shen Xian had been kind to her since childhood, and she liked this elder as well.

When she was little, she often went to the Zhou family to play. But as she grew up, she was busy with all sorts of things and hadn't seen Shen Xian for a long time.

"Okay, I'll do as my husband says."

...

Upon hearing that Su Xi was moving in today, Shen Xian instructed the servants to tidy up Zhou Jingming's room, pasting large red "double happiness" characters on the windows and changing the bedding to a new four-piece wedding set.

Spring Festival couplets were even pasted up inside and outside the villa.

As soon as Su Xi entered the house and saw all the festive decorations, she couldn't help but ask, "Is your family celebrating the New Year? It's decorated so festively."

Zhou Jingming put his arm around her and walked towards the living room, smiling teasingly, "Our wedding night."

Su Xi: "..."

"Xi'er is here! Come quickly, come sit here with Aunt Chen."

Shen Xian was standing outside the living room. When she saw the two of them walking together, she smiled and went to greet them.

Upon arriving, she shoved Zhou Jingming's groping hand away and pulled Su Xi into the living room.

"I've been waiting for you for so long. Aunt Chen has no other wish in this life but for you and Jingming to be together. I never thought that God would be so kind to me and make my wish come true."

Su Xi also liked Shen Xian and was completely at ease. "I never expected to become your daughter-in-law."

I thought about playing house when I was a child.

She also played Zhou Jingming's wife.

As Zhou Jingming grew up, he became increasingly eccentric, so she stopped considering herself as a potential daughter-in-law of the Zhou family.

“This is our destiny! Come on, let me take you upstairs to have a look.” Shen Xian didn’t have a moment to spare and pulled Su Xi upstairs to the second floor.

Upon entering the master bedroom, Su Xi was completely dumbfounded.

this……

She had visited the Zhou family a lot when she was a child and was very familiar with them. She had even been to Zhou Jingming's room, which was decorated in a black and gray color scheme.

She's really not used to the current red-themed decorations.

"If there's anything you don't like, I'll rearrange it for you," Shen Xian said.

Su Xi waved her hand, "I like it, Aunt Chen is so kind."

After saying that, she walked around the master bedroom once and finally sat on the bed.

My gaze was drawn to a group photo on the bedside table.

To her great surprise, the two children in the mirror were actually her and Zhou Jingming.

Su Xi picked it up and saw that when she was a child, she had two little pigtails, looking cute and adorable, and everyone praised her for being pretty.

However, standing next to Zhou Jingming, she was still completely overshadowed.

The dog-man is now handsome and refined, even more so than when he was a child.

No wonder she played pranks as a child, dressing people up as dolls.

Zhou Jingming is just too good-looking.

When Shen Xian saw Su Xi holding the photo, she kept praising it, "Aunt Shen has kept this photo for almost twenty years. Look at our Xi'er, she has been beautiful since she was a child."

"No way, it's clearly Aunt Shen who's prettier. Aunt Shen was a real beauty when she was young, and the men who wanted to date her could stretch all the way to the Great Wall."

Actually, you can tell from Zhou Jingming that he looks like Shen Xian.

With phoenix eyes and starry eyes, and well-proportioned features, he possessed a noble and dignified air that no man could match. His skin was fair and clean, and no woman could compare to him.

Shen Xian covered her mouth and laughed, "You can't let your Uncle Zhou hear this, or he'll bring up old grievances again."

She was good-looking when she was young and had a rich romantic history.

Old Zhou is also very jealous; he always gets a little grumpy whenever the past is brought up.

Su Xi made a shushing gesture.

Then he laughed.

She had always envied the relationship between Shen Xian and Zhou's father, whose love remained unchanged from youth to old age.

But for some reason, with such excellent genes in the Zhou family, how did they end up with Zhou Jingming, a playboy?
