Chapter 188 The Wife-Boasting Maniac: My Wife is the Best in the World
Wen Yingjie subconsciously let go of her hand.
Chi Yanzhou's eyes flickered slightly as he watched Xia Yuhuan soften her tone and speak to her with gentle eyes, having completely abandoned her imposing aura.
Looking at them like this... it seems that finding a suitable person to marry and settle down with doesn't seem so repulsive anymore.
"Comrade Wen, it's getting late. Why don't you stay for dinner?" Xia Yuhuan said a few words to Chi Yanzhou, then turned to look at Wen Yingjie.
Wen Yingjie snapped out of his reverie and nodded slightly. "Okay, then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law."
"Yan Zhou just told me that the medicinal wine you make is exceptional, and he asked me to try it. I've been wanting to try it for a while now," Wen Yingjie said with a smile.
"It's just ordinary medicinal wine, with some qi-tonifying and health-preserving effects, but the taste isn't that great."
"If you'd like to try some, I'll go get it for you right now," Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.
"How could I mind? It's my honor to drink the medicinal wine that my sister-in-law brewed herself," Wen Yingjie said with a smile.
Xia Yuhuan pushed Chi Yanzhou to the kitchen, brought him water to wash his hands, and thoughtfully dried them for him.
"Please sit down and talk while I get the wine."
There was a small bottle in the living room, but Chi Shaokang drank a little bit every day and finished it all, and she hasn't replenished it yet.
After she left, Wen Yingjie sat down next to Chi Yanzhou and exclaimed in shock, "What kind of heavenly life are you living now? Your wife is too good to you!"
When Chi Yanzhou mentioned Xia Yuhuan, he couldn't hide his smile and tenderness.
"Yes, my wife is very good to me, so once I recover, I will definitely treat her well, exceptionally well, the best."
He would gladly offer her everything in the world with both hands, hoping only that she could be filled with joy and happiness.
Looking at the gentleness on his face, Wen Yingjie couldn't help but shudder.
If someone had told him a year ago that the cold-faced Yama King Chi Yanzhou could also have such a gentle side, it would have been a different story.
He would definitely scoff at it.
They also had to verbally mock the other party.
Seeing Chi Yanzhou's unbelievably gentle demeanor and his utterly worthless smile, Wen Yingjie fell silent.
It's just getting married, right?
Why does Chi Yanzhou seem like a completely different person?
Is love really that powerful?
If that's the case, then he'd rather not get married and be alone; he's perfectly fine.
Wen Yingjie muttered to himself, immediately putting aside his own thought that he also wanted to marry a wife even more capable than Chi Yanzhou's wife.
Maybe you shouldn't get married.
He doesn't want to become someone he doesn't recognize.
But he forgot that fate is sometimes something that is completely beyond our control.
Xia Yuhuan quickly brought down the wine, poured a glass for each of them, and also brought them a plate of fried peanuts.
"The food will be ready soon, you two chat first."
As she spoke, she instructed Chi Yanzhou, "You can only drink two cups at most. Don't overindulge, understand?"
Chi Yanzhou nodded obediently: "I understand."
When Xia Yuhuan went to the kitchen, Wen Yingjie laughed at him.
"It's rare to see such a gentle and obedient look on your face. Is this still the same troublemaker I know?"
"If you're a troublemaker in front of your wife, you'll never have one. I cherish my wife, why would I be a troublemaker?"
Wen Yingjie was thoroughly annoyed by his constant use of the term "wife".
"Can you please stop calling me 'wife' all the time? It's getting annoying," Wen Yingjie said, rolling his eyes.
Chi Yanzhou: "No way, my wife is the best in the world, can't I even say that?"
Wen Yingjie: "..."
Very well, that makes him almost regret getting the news today and coming to see Chi Yanzhou!
He picked up his glass and took a sip of wine in silence.
The next moment, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The wine was smooth and gentle on the throat, with a mellow flavor and a unique sweetness.
It doesn't feel irritating as it passes through the throat and enters the stomach; instead, it spreads a warm feeling from the stomach and then dissipates to the limbs.
Soon, he felt his whole body sink into a comfortable, warm state.
"Good wine," Wen Yingjie couldn't help but exclaim.
Without hesitation, he grabbed the bottle and poured himself another drink.
"That's right, I already told you, the liquor my wife makes is top-quality." Chi Yanzhou said proudly.
"It's only because of you. If someone else comes, I might not even bother to serve them the same thing."
Wen Yingjie couldn't stand his sycophantic behavior, which involved constantly mentioning his wife; it was simply unbearable to watch.
He rolled his eyes at Chi Yanzhou and silently sipped his wine.
This time he didn't drink it all; he took small sips and discovered it had a unique flavor.
Although Chi Yanzhou always boasted about his wife, his praise was genuine and to the point, and there was no exaggeration or deception.
As Wen Yingjie was thinking, Xia Yuhuan and Aunt Wang brought the dishes out of the kitchen.
"The food is ready, let's eat!" Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.
"We're really in for a treat today, Yu Huan cooked all the dishes herself," Aunt Wang said with a smile.
"Did you make all of this, sister-in-law?" Wen Yingjie asked in astonishment as he looked at the table full of dishes.
Xia Yuhuan smiled and nodded: "My cooking skills are so-so, please make do with this."
"Sister-in-law, you're too modest. If you can cook such a big table of dishes and call it average, then what I usually eat is just pig swill," Wen Yingjie exclaimed.
No wonder Chi Yanzhou talks so much about his wife.
So this person is capable in both formal and domestic settings, a true all-rounder.
Anyone would feel honored by this.
Chi Yanzhou, standing to the side, had a proud expression on his face.
But when Xia Yuhuan sat down, he still pulled her aside and whispered, "Don't work so hard in the future. If you want to show off your skills, just cook one or two dishes. You don't need to cook so many."
Xia Yuhuan said with a smile, "I just happened to be itching to make some today, so I made a few extra. You should try them and see how they taste."
Chi Yanzhou immediately replied, "Anything my wife makes must be delicious."
Wen Yingjie watched the two whispering to each other as if no one else was around, and he was speechless.
He could only pretend he didn't exist and silently lower his head to eat with his chopsticks.
He picked up a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks, took a bite, and his eyes immediately lit up.
The braised pork was cooked to perfection; it melted in your mouth, rich but not greasy, and delicious.
Afterwards, Wen Yingjie began to pick up other dishes.
The more you eat, the brighter your eyes become.
Goodness, no wonder Chi Yanzhou kept recommending that he get married.
If he could marry such a capable wife, he would marry her too.
What kind of goddess-like wife did Chi Yanzhou marry?
It's truly enviable.
So, Wen Yingjie's firm resolve not to get married was swayed by Xia Yuhuan's culinary skills, and he began to want to get married again.
Chi Yanzhou was unaware that this person's thoughts had changed so much in such a short time.
All he knew was that after he and his wife exchanged a few words, when he looked up again, he saw Wen Yingjie showing off his food and dishes, with his jet-black hair pointing at him.
Chi Yanzhou: "..."
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you. It's like you haven't eaten in ages," Chi Yanzhou said irritably.
Wen Yingjie was busy eating and mumbled a few words, not paying any attention to Chi Yanzhou.
Chi Yanzhou: "..."
How did he end up with such a goofy comrade-in-arms?
That's so embarrassing.
