Chapter 9 Looks Really Like Me

Shen Yixiao’s face darkened, “Su Ying, if you can’t speak, just shut up.”

Su Ying slapped her lips quickly and blamed herself, "I'm sorry, sorry, look at my broken mouth. What I meant is that Secretary Lu is working beside you after all, your right-hand man. If she meets the wrong person and affects the work, it will be bad for you. You might as well help her check!"

Shen Yixiao's expression eased a little, but his tone was still cold, "It's none of my business, she can find whoever she wants."

What a distant statement. Anyone who heard it would feel that he had no romantic feelings for Lu Xiaoyun at all, and their relationship was purely work-related.

What came into my mind was the scene of them passionately making love on the big bed in the apartment, at the elevator entrance.

"Yes, other women have nothing to do with you. Just take good care of your wife." Su Ying looked at me meaningfully.

Shen Yixiao was annoyed by her talking so nonsense, and ordered her to leave, "Su Ying, I won't let you have dinner at home today, maybe next time."

Su Ying snorted, seemed to be in a good mood, and left very happily.

As soon as she left, Shen Yixiao came to test me, “Wife, are you angry about that lipstick mark?”

"No, I know you have to socialize now. Even if you are just having a casual affair with other women, I can understand." I looked understanding.

Shen Yixiao was moved and held my hand. The joy and tenderness in his eyes were never fake. He still had feelings for me, but they were not as pure anymore.

"I will never flirt with other women. Everyone knows that I, Shen Yixiao, am a henpecked husband. Who dares to challenge my loyalty? Little Moon, I only love you."

Shen Yixiao hasn't seen me "Little Moon" in private for a long time. When I was seventeen years old, he chased after me. Whether in the class or on the playground, he was never stingy with this lovely "name".

There are scripts in variety shows. He called me "Little Moon", which attracted a group of fans' pure love carnival.

Looking at his face that has shed its youthful immaturity, both his appearance and temperament have become more mature. Coupled with the high-spirited energy given by his current status, he is truly the dream lover of many women.

I took the initiative to hug him and lean on his arms, not wanting him to see my forced smile.

Shen Yixiao did not go to the company in the afternoon, but stayed at home with me, which was rare.

He acted as my model and posed for two full hours in the studio. I kept pausing while holding the paintbrush, and in the end, the painting of him looked lifeless.

It turns out that I lost the feeling of loving him, and even my paintbrush lost its vitality.

This was my dream since childhood. My parents spent a lot of money to cultivate my painting skills, but of course, it all came to nothing in the end.

Shen Yixiao specially built this studio for me, wanting to make up for the future I missed. I like staying here the most and depicting his every expression and movement.

“This…” Shen Yixiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after seeing the finished product, “Wife, do you think he looks like me?”

I shook my head. “No.”

My dazed look made Shen Yixiao a little worried. He put down the portrait, took me to the bedroom, and asked me to rest for a while.

I didn't refuse.

Unable to sleep, I got up and went downstairs again, wanting to get a glass of water, but I heard Shen Yixiao's voice, "You performed well this morning, it was very enjoyable, but you can't do this next time, it's too dangerous to not wear a condom!"

"Please buy some and put them in the drawer in the lounge so you don't have to rush at the last minute."

"I'm not free tonight. Also, your lipstick got on my cuffs today. My wife saw it and I don't want her to be unhappy. Please be more careful next time."

As I listened to these words, the feeling of nausea rushed to my head again.

Shen Yixiao didn’t know that I was awake, so he dared to say that.

I turned around and went upstairs as fast as I could, covering myself with the quilt to suppress the nausea I was feeling.

Fortunately, he didn't notice that I went downstairs, and until the evening, he accompanied me as if nothing had happened, just as before.

——

The company's anniversary celebration was held as scheduled over the weekend.

The venue is on the top floor of the company building. All senior executives and managers of the head office will attend, as well as some partners and business partners.

I got up early in the morning to change my clothes. The mermaid dress was still shining. After I put it on, the makeup artist kept praising me for my beauty.

When Shen Yixiao saw me, the amazement and joy in his eyes overflowed, "Wife, you are so beautiful."

"Mr. Shen, you and your wife are such a perfect match. Can I take a picture of you?" the makeup artist asked with envy.

Shen Yixiao naturally hugged my waist and smiled brightly, "Okay."

After the makeup artist took the photo for us, she posted it online immediately, which attracted a lot of praise and envy.

Then Shen Yixiao took me to the company.

After the elevator reached the top floor venue, the door opened, and Shen Yixiao walked in holding my hand, instantly attracting everyone's attention, including Su Ying. She looked at me gloomily, but when my eyes fell on her, she quickly put on a smile.

With our arrival, the anniversary celebration officially begins.

Shen Yixiao wandered among the crowd, chatting and laughing. After I accompanied him for a while, I lost interest and found a quiet corner by myself.

"Madam, why are you here alone?" Lu Xiaoyun came to me at some point and asked with concern.

I looked at her, and for a second I really thought I was seeing my old self.

Her hair was black and smooth, never permed or dyed, and fell naturally straight on her shoulders and back. Her bangs were only held back with a hairpin, revealing her beautiful face, especially her pair of eyes with distinct black and white, which were exactly the same as mine.

She was wearing a white halter dress, the silk texture gleaming in the light, and the style was somewhat similar to the dress I was wearing.

"Hey, your skirts are similar!" someone said in surprise.

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoyun's face changed immediately.

And I suddenly remembered what the dress brand staff had said before, Shen Yixiao ordered two dresses, and one white one was to be kept for me as a surprise.

No surprises, just elaborate deception.

"No, no, no, I bought this skirt online. It cost a few hundred dollars. It can't compare with your dress, madam!" Lu Xiaoyun shook her head repeatedly.

Shen Yixiao should have reserved two dresses for my size, otherwise it would be exposed, so the skirt on Lu Xiaoyun was a little tighter, especially on the chest, where a thin layer of skin and flesh squeezed out.

She looks similar to me, but her figure is fuller than mine. There must be a reason why Shen Yixiao is so obsessed with her body.

I was about to answer, but suddenly I heard a slight tearing sound behind me, and then I felt that the dress on my body had loosened a lot and was falling down.

Fortunately, I quickly covered my collar to avoid exposure.
