Chapter 41 Are you jealous?

To avoid being recognized, Yu Li deliberately had Qi Chenyan stop at the corner, and then she got out of the car and drove over herself.

Unexpectedly, by sheer coincidence, I bumped into a colleague who happened to be riding an electric scooter to work.

Fortunately, her car had a privacy tint, so it was impossible to see the people inside from the outside.

Yu Li quickly closed the car door.

"I wasn't feeling well today, so I had someone bring me here."

As she spoke, Yu Li gestured to the person inside the car, "Go park the car first, I'll come find you later."

"Give me a ride, I'm going to be late for work."

Yu Li used the phrase "checking in" to successfully divert her colleagues' attention, and then she took the opportunity to sit on the back of the electric scooter.

As her colleague drove her there, Yu Li waved in Qi Chenyan's direction, signaling him not to show himself.

Qi Chenyan felt inexplicably upset.

But this blockade wasn't because Yu Li felt guilty and was afraid that others would find out.

Rather, it's because he himself is the one who caused this situation.

After all, it was he who told Yu Li when they got their marriage certificate that because of his special status, in order to protect her privacy, they should have a secret marriage and not be discovered by the public.

Although Qi Chenyan didn't want to go public with the relationship, for some reason, seeing Yu Li acting so secretly, like they were having a clandestine affair when they were the legally married couple, made him feel uneasy.

After parking the car, Tan Mo walked over and leaned against the car, revealing Qi Chenyan's current mood in one sentence: "Why are you two like thieves, sneaking around outside as if you're afraid of being discovered?"

"Could it be that you, Shen Yan, feel that your sister-in-law's status would lower your standing, so you're deliberately avoiding her?"

In short, he successfully earned a cold look from Qi Chenyan.

“My identity is special. If I am photographed by the media, especially in today’s chaotic online environment, it will definitely have an impact on her.”

"I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble for her normal life because of me. You also need to keep your mouth shut and not say anything you shouldn't say outside."

Tan Mo leaned closer and asked slyly, "Chen Yan, let me ask you a question, but don't get angry beforehand. You wouldn't actually have fallen for your sister-in-law, would you?"

Tan Mo's response was an automatically sliding car window that nearly pinched his hand.

Tan Mo yelled, "If you don't love me, then you don't love me! A gentleman uses words, not fists. Your sister-in-law is such a good girl, she's so young and she's already given birth to your children, and you don't cherish her? You'll regret it later."

Qi Chenyan originally didn't want to pay attention to Tan Mo, but he saw Yu Li standing not far away out of the corner of his eye.

For some reason, they didn't come over.

She didn't come over, so Qi Chenyan got out of the car by himself.

Tan Mo thought Qi Chenyan was apologizing for his shamelessness earlier, and huffed arrogantly, "Don't think that just because you got out of the car and apologized to me, I'll forgive your rude behavior... Hey, where are you going!"

Following the direction Qi Chenyan had gone, Tan Mo then realized that Yu Li had returned at some point.

Before Qi Chenyan could speak, Yu Li smiled and extended her hand.

"Could you please give me a ride? Give me the car keys; I can go home by myself after get off work."

Qi Chenyan wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but although Yu Li was polite to him most of the time, he sensed a hint of distance in the word "trouble".

After thinking for a moment, Qi Chenyan explained, "I was just joking with Tan Mo..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Li took the car keys, blinked, and asked, "What joke were you talking about? Was it funny? Tell me too."

Although it was Qi Chenyan's first time getting married, and even his first time interacting with a girl, he had a strong intuition that he shouldn't have told Yu Li about the joke he had just made with Tan Mo, otherwise the consequences would be severe.

"It's not a funny joke, otherwise Tan Mo wouldn't have screamed so miserably."

Qi Chenyan changed the subject: "If you feel unwell, remember to send me a message."

Before Yu Li could speak, Tan Mo leaned closer.

"Why would I message you? If your wife isn't feeling well, you're not a doctor, you'd have to call me, wouldn't you?"

As he spoke, Tan Mo very consciously took out his phone. "Sister-in-law, let's add each other on WeChat. If you're vomiting a lot or have any other problems, you can consult me. I'll guarantee to be a professional."

Just as Yu Li was about to add him, Qi Chenyan's tone lowered slightly: "Go to work first, I'll try to finish work as early as possible tonight."

Tan Mo wanted to say that they hadn't added each other on WeChat yet, but Qi Chenyan gave her a cold glare and threatened her, so she silently put her phone away.

Yu Li had no objections, nodded, said goodbye, and went back to the TV station.

After everyone had walked away, Tan Mo said angrily, "You did that on purpose, didn't you? You can question my good looks, but you can't question my professionalism."

"Besides, you and your sister-in-law are both first-time parents and lack experience. This morning, it was just a very common morning sickness, but it scared you half to death."

"There will be a lot of things to do in the later stages of pregnancy, enough to make you overwhelmed. I can give my sister-in-law the most professional advice. You are really biting the hand that feeds you. You don't appreciate my kindness."

But Qi Chenyan paid no attention to his accusations.

"If she feels unwell, I will naturally relay the message; you don't need to worry about it."

Qi Chenyan turned around and walked back.

Tan Mo chuckled and caught up, asking a probing question: "Old Qi, you're not jealous, are you? You must be jealous!"

"No way, bro. I just wanted to add your wife on WeChat as a doctor, and you're getting jealous?"

"My sister-in-law works as a journalist, and she comes into contact with hundreds or thousands of people every day. Moreover, she is so beautiful that it's inevitable that some men will try to take advantage of her by taking advantage of her position."

"You think you can stop one, but can you stop thousands upon thousands?"

As he approached the car, Qi Chenyan suddenly stopped and asked, "Are you free?"

"It's not exactly free time, I sacrificed my day off to come here..."

Before Tan Mo could finish speaking, Qi Chenyan got into the car and drove off without waiting for him, leaving him with a trail of exhaust fumes.

"Hey, I haven't even gotten in the car yet! Qi Chenyan, that's my car, get back here!"

"Ancestor Qi, I was wrong! I'll never talk nonsense again! Please take me with you!"

Tan Mo perfectly exemplifies the saying, "A moment of smug talk leads to a lifetime of regret."

Yu Li got busy as soon as she arrived at the TV station.

The first episode of the interview has been edited and needs final confirmation. The station has decided to fully leverage Qi Chenyan's national influence.

We've cleared out our prime Saturday slot on Blue Sky TV to broadcast this interview.

When Yu Li was confirming the editing, her colleagues gathered around to watch and couldn't help but sigh.

"Director Qi is really handsome. He doesn't actually look good on camera. I think he's even more handsome in real life than on screen."

A colleague gushed, "I wonder how outstanding a woman must be to have the honor of becoming Mrs. Qi."

"Don't even mention being Mrs. Qi, even if I were Director Qi's girlfriend for just one day, I could walk around with my head held high on social media!"
