Chapter 78 Chapter 78 Are you going to kick me out right after you've used me? ...

The next day, I was late as expected.

I clearly heard the alarm clock ringing in a daze, but the sound quickly dissipated.

When I woke up, I realized that it was Chen Yuchu who turned off the alarm clock.

When I got downstairs, the other three had already finished breakfast.

Shang Yu raised her eyebrows and asked Chen Yuchu, "It rained yesterday. When did it stop?"

Chen Yuchu changed into a well-tailored suit. Despite the lack of sleep, he was still energetic and spoke in a steady voice, "Three o'clock."

The rain stopped at three o'clock, and Yan Jiu fell asleep around half past three. He was still obviously sleepy, with a tired face and drooping long eyelashes.

It's as if all the energy has been sucked out.

Even Wen Yunhui was speechless.

Yesterday, Chen Yuchu appealed to his emotions and reason with him, trying various ways to persuade him not to go too far with Ji Ruixi, and said that he had to get up early today and rush back to Juancheng.

Who would have thought that he would allow the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps.

Yan Jiu ate breakfast without any appetite and fell asleep as soon as he got on the bus.

When she opened her eyes, she found that she had been leaning on Chen Yuchu's shoulder without knowing when, and he was looking at information on a tablet.

The man tapped his slender fingertips lightly, reading the information at an extremely fast speed.

Yan Jiu yawned and continued to lean on him.

Chen Yuchu noticed that she was awake, and glanced at her sideways. In the dim light, her sparkling eyes were staring at him without blinking.

Qingjian's voice rang out, "What are you looking at?"

Being caught looking at him, Yan Jiu did not shy away and said frankly, "Watching you work."

No wonder they say men who work hard look the best. In the dim light, he was wearing a crisp shirt with the top two buttons loosened. His sharp chin was slightly raised, revealing his slender neck and full Adam's apple, which gave him a special sexiness and charm.

Chen Yuchu turned off the tablet and said in a magnetic tone, "Why don't you work with me today?"

A glimmer of light flashed across his deep eyes, as if implying expectation.

Unexpectedly, the delicate little face turned away, and the nose wrinkled slightly, "I want to go home and sleep."

Her voice sounded extremely aggrieved, reminding people of last night when she asked him when they could go to bed, and he coaxed her by saying it would be soon.

Later she was so angry that she started crying and called him a liar.

He must really be a liar.

But those three words yesterday were true.

"Ahem. We're still here."

Shang Yu's voice came from behind.

A blush spread across Yan Jiu's porcelain-white face. The car was so quiet that she had just woken up and had forgotten that there was someone there.

She glared at Chen Yuchu and stopped talking.

Chen Yuchu knew Yan Jiu was blaming him for not reminding him, so he replied calmly, "We are a loving couple, don't be envious."

He returned all the sarcastic words Shang Yu had said to him yesterday.

Shang Yu: "You are so shameless."

He really couldn't stand having two brothers like him around him anymore. It was just a marriage, but he made a big deal out of it like a peacock spreading its feathers. The key point was that they ignored him. He watched helplessly as Yan Jiu closed his eyes again.

They arrived in Juancheng quickly and drove onto the main road. They first sent the two ladies home, and then they went to their respective companies.

When they parted, Yan Jiu held Ji Ruixi's hand and said, "Let's get in touch again."

Shang Yu pushed Chen Yuchu's arm and said, "It looks like their relationship is even better than yours."

Chen Yuchu didn't even turn his head and said coldly, "What do single dogs know?"

Shang Yu was so angry that he touched Ping An's head and continued to sow discord, "Did you hear that? Chen Yuchu called you a dog."

Chen Yuchu glanced at this incompetent brother who was trying to sow discord between the puppies with a bad temper and said, "But you are the real dog."

Yan Jiu ignored what they were saying, hugged Ji Ruixi gently, and asked in a whisper that only they could hear: "Xixi, do you want to escape?"

Ji Ruixi's pupils widened, and she lowered her eyelashes with a slight tremor, so as not to let anyone see anything unusual. After a pause, she said softly, "I do."

Ever since she knew that Madam Wen was looking for a marriage partner for Wen Yunhui, she no longer wanted to stay with him for even a second.

What kind of relationship did they have? A sister living in his house, or a lover who lived secretly? Wen Yunhui knew they couldn't possibly get married, so why did he have to mess with her?

But she is different from everyone here.

She has no home, where can she escape to?

She has been hesitating during this period. She doesn't want to go on like this. She doesn't want to be entangled with Wen Yunhui anymore, but she knows that this matter cannot be centered around her will.

Wen Yunhui usually looks like a very gentle person, but once something involving her becomes crazy, no one can persuade her.

If she really escaped, what kind of wrath would Yan Jiu, who helped her, bear?

In this circle, she had naturally heard Mrs. Wen mention Yan Jiu, and knew that her family background was not good, and that she might be walking on thin ice in the Chen family. How could she offend Wen Yunhui in order to help her?

Ji Ruixi suddenly felt a little hesitant and said timidly: "Forget it, don't involve you."

When Yan Jiu heard this, he felt even more distressed. How could he let her go back to Wen Yunhui?

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she deliberately tried to comfort Ji Ruixi, "Don't be afraid, Chen Yuchu will protect me."

They said goodbye for a long time, and Shang Yu asked uncertainly, "Do all girls talk so much? You're so reluctant to part, it's like we'll never see each other again."

Wen Yunhui's eyebrows moved slightly, and he took a few steps forward, saying in a gentle tone, "What are you talking about?"

Although the tone was gentle, Ji Ruixi's body trembled, and she whispered, "Nothing."

Wen Yunhui's dark eyes were dark, and he said meaningfully, "Is that so?"

Chen Yuchu walked forward with straight legs and stood in front of Yan Jiu. He blocked Wen Yunhui's gaze without making a sound and said calmly, "We should go."

Yan Jiu suddenly held his hand, took a step forward, stood beside him, stood on tiptoe and placed a kiss on his lips, "I just told Xixi that Chen Yuchu is very good to me."

Wen Yunhui's eyes fell on Ji Ruixi, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Yan Jiu pushed Chen Yuchu and said softly, "You should go."

Chen Yuchu leaned over, brushing her earlobe with his thin lips, and raised his voice, "Wife, are you going to kick me out right after you've taken advantage of me?"

The moist, hot breath hit Yan Jiu's ear. He felt guilty about what he said. Thinking that he really needed Chen Yuchu's help in this matter, he said softly, "I was worried that you wouldn't be able to make it in time for work. Thank you for your hard work~"

The ending note was halfway rising when it was swallowed up by a sudden kiss.

The slightly drunken morning sunlight fell on Yan Jiu's body, making his long, straight black hair behind him shine with golden light. His clear pupils were wide open, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Why did he kiss her without saying anything?

In front of so many people!

The tip of Yan Jiu's nose was scratched, bringing with it a hot breath. The soft pink flesh was bitten, and the lips and teeth touched, but they were released after a while.

Chen Yuchu's slender fingertips scraped across her porcelain-white cheek, his thin lips slightly parted, his voice filled with satisfaction, "It's not hard."

Yan Jiu's face flushed red as he urged him to leave.

This time, Chen Yuchu didn't linger any longer and said seriously, "I'll go home early."

"good."

Shang Yu was afraid that Yan Jiu would feel embarrassed, so she kept it to herself until she got back to the car and whistled, "You just show off your affection. Do you know what the next sentence of showing off your affection is?"

Those who show off their affection will die quickly.

It was just a joke, but Chen Yuchu's face darkened. "It's time to invite Ms. He to dinner."

Shang Yu was fearless except for Ms. He. Upon hearing this, he immediately raised his hands in surrender. "Got it. Young Master Chen is a good husband. I'll leave a message in your super topic to increase your popularity."

Chen Yuchu: "What super topic?"

Shang Yu: "Oh. It was built for you by your fans, just for daily check-ins and stuff. Some people even write novels for you."

Chen Yuchu's purpose of going online was to read about the latest developments in the industry and look up information. He had no interest in entertainment gossip, didn't even know what a super topic was, and had no idea what novels were worth writing.

"What novel?"

Shang Yu flipped through his phone and sent it to Chen Yuchu, "Here. This is the link to your super topic. Take a look for yourself. I don't know what's written on it. I get dizzy just looking at the words."

Chen Yuchu clicked on the link and wanted to save it, but found that he didn't have an account, so he gave up.

Yan Jiu was served breakfast with the utmost attention. A young maid of similar age ran up to her and asked eagerly, "Madam, can you sign an autograph for me?"

Yan Jiu was stunned, and even his hazy sleepiness was dispelled a lot.

"sign?"

The maid nodded. "It's like this. My friend is a fan of yours. He knows I work for you and wants me to get an autograph."

Yu Yinghui served the bird's nest porridge. Upon hearing this, she took on the airs of a housekeeper and said in a serious tone, "Mr. and Mrs. are both kind-hearted people, but if you don't do your job properly, and just keep thinking about these things and telling others about the family affairs, I'm afraid there will be no place for you, this great Buddha."

Yan Jiu opened his lips but still didn't plead for her.

Yu Yinghui is the housekeeper here, managing all matters big and small. She can't offend her at this time, and what she said makes sense. The most feared thing in a big family is that the people around them are disloyal and sell private affairs to the enemy family.

The maid's eyes were red, and she waved her hands hurriedly, "Housekeeper Yu, I know everything you said. I didn't tell anyone about our family's affairs! I swear, if I did, I'd..."

"Shut up." Yan Jiu stopped her, "No matter what the situation, you are not allowed to curse yourself."

Yu Yinghui said, "Did you hear what Madam said? Wipe your tears and go out to work."

Yan Jiu pulled Yu Yinghui's hand and said, "I can meet her request. It won't cause any trouble."

Yu Yinghui personally set the table for her, her eyes gentle. "Xiaojiu, I know what's going on online. Sometimes people are criticized for things they haven't done anything wrong. That's because the world isn't made up of only good people. There are also bad people, and people who aren't that bad but sometimes have bad intentions."

"People's hearts are always unpredictable, so we must not let down our guard at home, especially for those who are insignificant around us. Sign your name later, and I'll have someone deliver it to her. Only then will she remember your kindness."

Yan Jiu knew that Yu Yinghui understood the ways of the world better than she did, so she agreed with a smile.

After breakfast, she couldn't help yawning several times and went upstairs to catch up on her sleep.

It was already noon when she woke up. The sheets were filled with a pleasant fragrance. She rolled lazily several times in bed, her clear eyes looking at the white ceiling, and the figure of Chen Yuchu appeared in her mind.

I don't know what he had for lunch.

I don't know what he is doing.

I wonder if he misses her.

When he thought of this, Yan Jiu's heart softened unconsciously.

She pursed her lips into a smile, took out her cell phone, and tapped it with her fingertips.

[Yan Jiu: Chen Yuchu, what are you doing?]

Do you miss me?
