Chapter 226: Venomous Boss 13

Xu Qiuqiu noticed that Yan Chen seemed to be in a good mood, so she tentatively asked, "Yan Chen, do you feel that there's anything wrong with your memory?"

Seeing her serious expression, Yan Chen also became nervous. "Is something wrong?"

"Is it possible that we weren't actually married...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Chen interrupted her, his gaze sharp, "So, in the end, you just don't acknowledge our marital relationship, do you?"

His face looked terrible, and Xu Qiuqiu choked on her words, immediately denying it, "No..."

"No?" Yan Xu's tone turned cold. "Give me your phone."

Knowing that he was a patient and shouldn't be upset, Xu Qiuqiu hesitated for a moment before stepping forward to hug his arm and gently coaxing him, "Ah-Chu, don't be angry, okay?"

"I shouldn't have said that..."

When she grabbed his arm, Yan Chen was stunned. He could feel her warm breath so close to his body and her soft fragrance. For a moment, he forgot the anger surging in his heart.

He cursed himself inwardly for being so weak; he couldn't help but want to go along with everything she said, no matter how much she coaxed him.

She used to coax him into keeping their marriage a secret, and she does it now, but she can't let him know what she's thinking, otherwise he'll become even more unruly.

He tried to keep a straight face and said coldly, "That's it?"

Noticing that his body had relaxed a bit, Xu Qiuqiu thought it was helpful and pressed herself against him, her voice soft and sweet, "So, what does Ah-Chu want? I'll do whatever you say, okay?"

Yan Chen resisted the urge to pull her into his arms, and in his mind, he asked, "Will you listen to everything I say?"

"Mmm." Xu Qiuqiu obediently went along with him.

"First, we need to change how we address each other. At home, you should call me husband."

Xu Qiuqiu called out shyly, "Husband..."

Hearing her call him "husband" made Yan Chen's ears turn red, and he felt a little smug. It had been a long time since he had heard her call him that. Afraid that his heart was beating too fast and she would notice something was wrong, he coughed lightly. "Second, you have to kiss me every day, no less than two times."

Hearing this request, Xu Qiuqiu was a little stunned, "This..."

Before she could finish speaking, she met Yan Chen's gaze. His eyes were as black as ink, gleaming with a cold light, so she had no choice but to obediently hum in agreement.

“Ah…”

As soon as she opened her mouth, Yan Chen's icy gaze swept over her. Remembering her earlier promise, she called out somewhat shyly, "Husband..."

Yan Xu smiled, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her onto his lap. "Yes, my wife, I'm here."

The first time he held her on his lap, Xu Qiuqiu was startled. She could smell the cedar scent on his body with every breath. The fabric of his shirt was smooth, and she could feel the lines of his muscles. His arms around her waist pulled her closer to his chest.

Now she pressed herself tightly against his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, unsure of what to do with her hands.

"Huh? Why aren't you saying anything?"

After waiting for a long time without any response, Yan Chen looked down and saw her blushing face.

He was a little puzzled. Qiuqiu had become much shyer lately. She used to flirt with him directly, so why had she become so shy?

But being shy is kind of cute, and he likes her no matter what.

Xu Qiuqiu recovered and, after thinking for a moment, suggested, "Ah... honey, the weather is so nice today, we should go for a walk..."

Yan Chen hugged her tighter. "Where do you want to go?"

Remembering that he had mentioned the marriage certificate was in another apartment, Xu Qiuqiu immediately said, "Let's go to your other apartment."

He'll definitely remember something then, and that way he can go see a doctor properly.

For some reason, Yan Chen suddenly felt a sense of resistance. It was as if some memories were about to surface, and painful emotions flooded his mind. His intuition told him that he didn't want to go back.

"How about we go somewhere else?" Yan Chen's lips were a little pale, and his voice was pleading.

Xu Qiuqiu continued to whine, "But I really want to go there. I want to see our marriage certificate."

As soon as she finished speaking, she sensed a low pressure spreading around her, and her chin was grabbed and lifted up.

She saw Yan Chen's cold gaze. "Look at the marriage certificate? You want to steal it and then secretly file for divorce, right? Don't even think about it!"

His eyes flashed with a crazed light, which frightened Xu Qiuqiu so much that her legs went weak again.

Okay, now we can't even mention marriage certificates anymore.

She timidly held his hand and gently coaxed him, "No, we just made up. Let's not argue or be suspicious of each other, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Chen's aura returned to normal. He let go of her hand, and a feeling of regret welled up inside him.

He quickly hugged her, buried his head in her neck, and said in a choked voice, "I'm sorry, I was just too scared. These past few days you've wanted to leave me, and no matter how much I tried to persuade you to stay, you wouldn't turn back. I just don't want to lose you again..."

His vulnerability made Xu Qiuqiu feel sorry for him. His delusions were also related to her, but she was not a doctor and she couldn't cure him. How could she coax him to see a doctor?

She could only comfort him, saying, "Don't be afraid, I won't leave you."

Hearing her words, Yan Chen did not calm down. To keep Qiu Qiu from leaving him, he had to solve the problem at its root. Recently, Qiu Qiu had been asking for a divorce because of her first love.

That male mistress must be kicked out of G City. No, we should just send him abroad, to the most chaotic Golden Triangle, so he can never come back.

Qiuqiu can only be his.

In the afternoon, the apartment building reeked of alcohol. Liu Yue was annoyed by the man who was always hungover, but she couldn't get angry.

Thinking that this man was unreliable, she decided to leave first. She had just reached the door when Zhou Tingxuan grabbed her.

His eyes flashed with anger. "Yueyue, where are you going?"

"Brother Xuan, I want to go home." Liu Yue gave him a fake smile.

"Go home?" Zhou Tingxuan smashed the wine bottle, the loud noise echoing through the quiet room and startling Liu Yue.

Zhou Tingxuan said fiercely, "You can't leave me! I lost my job because of you! How can you leave me?"

"Let me go!" Liu Yue felt both disgusted and frightened when she saw his fierce and crazy appearance.

"You think you can just run away after using me?" Zhou Tingxuan grabbed her by the neck. "Do you think I don't know how many men you've been chatting with online these past few days?"

Liu Yue was being choked and couldn't breathe. She grabbed his hand and struggled desperately, "Let...go..."

Soon Liu Yue's face turned red, and she couldn't breathe and was about to suffocate.
