Chapter 283 Until He's Subdued
Xie Nanzhi leaned against the window sill in the corridor and took a deep breath. "Old Zhou, if someone makes you angry, what would it take for you to forgive them?"
"Did you make Wei Chizheng angry?"
"It's so obvious."
Zhou Mubin casually stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray. "There's only one man you'd go to such lengths to please. Is that so hard to guess?"
Xie Nanzhi, "..."
Seeing that she didn't speak, Zhou Mubin stopped teasing her. "It's so easy to coax a man, especially a man who loves you. Let me tell you this: there's nothing that a good night's sleep can't solve. If it doesn't, then sleep with him again until you've won him over."
Xie Nanzhi's cheeks flushed slightly. "Can't you think of a method that a normal person could accept?"
Zhou Mubin raised an eyebrow. "How am I not a normal person? Nanzhi, a man has two brains, one on his neck and one hanging on his hip. Tell me, if both of those brains are filled with you, is there a better way than to sleep with you? Take my advice, go and prepare a sexy outfit right now, and I guarantee that Wei Chi will forget all about his biggest problems."
Xie Nanzhi was stunned. "Seriously?"
"Otherwise what?" Zhou Mubin rolled his eyes. "Take my advice, and you'll avoid ten years of detours. Nanzhi, would I harm you?"
She hung her head dejectedly, twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers. "Is there any other way?"
Zhou Mubin pondered for a moment, "If you're not willing to go all out, then you can only let others feel your sincerity."
Xie Nanzhi, "Sincerity?"
Zhou Mubin said seriously, "Wei Chizheng is love-struck. Actually, as long as you humble yourself, he will give you a way out. So, post on your WeChat Moments now and sincerely express your apology. At least let him know your attitude."
Xie Nanzhi's eyes lit up, and she quickly took out her phone to write it down.
Zhou Mubin continued, "Secondly, tomorrow I'll set aside some time to cook for him myself. As they say, if you want to win a man's heart, you have to win his stomach. I guarantee he won't refuse."
He paused, then gave a mischievous smile. "Besides, aren't there Nianchi and Nianzheng? With those two little ones around, even the most awkward atmosphere won't be dull."
After listening, Xie Nanzhi asked earnestly, "Will this... will this work?"
Zhou Mubin grinned and patted his chest to assure everyone, "We're both men, I know his little tricks inside and out. He's just waiting to see if you're sincere and if you really understand his worthless pride. As long as you do as I say, I guarantee he'll be wagging his tail to find you tonight."
While on the phone, Xie Nanzhi was already thinking about how to post this on her WeChat Moments. She tapped the screen lightly with her finger and said, "Okay, I understand."
Xie Nanzhi then hung up the phone.
Zhou Mubin looked out the window, shook his head with a smile, and picked up his phone to send Wei Chizheng a message: "Mr. Wei, although I don't know why you and Nanzhi argued, if you keep putting on airs, your wife will be snatched away by someone else."
After sending the message, Zhou Mubin planned to put down his phone.
But the next second, Wei Chizheng replied: "Okay, thanks."
Hospital.
When Wei Chizheng came out of the ward, Wang Shufen's condition was basically under control. However, given her current physical condition, staying in the hospital was the best option.
Wei Chizheng asked Mu Lin to select the best caregiver to take care of Wang Shufen. He stayed by her side all day. Even an iron body can't withstand that, not to mention Xie Nanzhi's health has always been poor.
Wei Chizheng gave Mu Lin some instructions before leaving the ward.
Walking down the empty corridor, Wei Chi searched for Xie Nanzhi and finally spotted her in an area opposite the elevator.
She was facing the window, head down, holding her phone with a serious expression, seemingly deep in thought, looking troubled.
He walked over slowly and suddenly said, "It's getting late, go home and rest."
Xie Nanzhi was startled and immediately turned around to look at the person behind her.
Wei Chizheng remained expressionless, and Xie Nanzhi became somewhat reserved upon seeing this.
To be honest, she had no experience in coaxing men. All day long, Xie Nanzhi's mind was filled with how to keep Wei Chi from getting angry.
After thinking it over and over, he still couldn't come up with a good solution, so he called Zhou Mubin for help.
Before she could even finish editing her WeChat Moments post, Wei Chizheng found her.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a while, Wei Chizheng said again, "Don't worry, I've already made arrangements for Mom. Go back and rest for the night, and come over again first thing tomorrow morning."
With a neutral tone, Xie Nanzhi pursed her lips and nodded, which was taken as agreement.
Then, Wei Chizheng turned around and took a few steps forward. Xie Nanzhi did not follow. He frowned and looked back. "Aren't you coming?"
Xie Nanzhi snapped back to her senses and followed in his footsteps.
The damp air is a call from the spring rain.
Not long after the two got into the car, a light drizzle began to fall.
They didn't exchange a single word the whole way, but thankfully the sound of the drizzle hitting the car prevented the atmosphere from becoming too awkward.
Soon after, the car stopped outside the villa. The car was so quiet that you could hear the rhythmic swaying of the windshield wipers.
Xie Nanzhi's fingers, gripping the bag strap, turned white. When she turned her head to look for the third time, Wei Chizheng finally moved.
He unbuckled his seatbelt, the metal buckle clicking loudly, but he didn't look at her, only staring at the rain-blurred view ahead.
“The umbrella is on your right.” His voice was colder than the rain outside the car window.
Xie Nanzhi didn't speak, but softly hummed in agreement. She then picked up the umbrella on her right, opened the car door, and got out.
There was only one umbrella, so after Xie Nanzhi got out of the car, she instinctively went to Wei Chizheng's side, wanting to hold the umbrella for him.
Then I heard, "No need."
After saying that, Wei Chizheng slammed the car door shut and strode forward.
Xie Nanzhi stood there stunned for a moment, her brows furrowed.
Late at night, the servants heard a noise, got up to check, and realized that they had returned.
The lights came on as the two stepped through the door, but the warm yellow light couldn't dispel the low pressure that permeated the air.
Wei Chizheng walked ahead, each step seemingly a struggle against the ground.
Just then, the maid came over and said, "Sir, your clothes are all wet. Please change them quickly, or you'll catch a cold."
Wei Chizheng remained calm, but his steps quickened.
The maid was a little confused and didn't understand what was going on. She looked blankly at Xie Nanzhi walking behind her.
"Miss Nan, the gentleman..."
Xie Nanzhi handed the umbrella to the maid, her voice low, "It's nothing. Go and make a bowl of ginger soup. I'll bring it to the master myself later."
The maid nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll go right now."
Xie Nanzhi didn't go upstairs; she waited for the ginger soup to be ready.
During this time, she considered posting on WeChat Moments, but after thinking it over, Xie Nanzhi felt that these tricks were actually useless.
It's understandable that Wei Chizheng would be angry.
If it were her, she probably wouldn't forgive so easily either.
Xie Nanzhi took off her trench coat and pulled off her silk scarf as well.
After a while, the ginger soup was ready.
Xie Nanzhi personally carried the piping hot ginger soup upstairs.
She stood at the bedroom door, paused, and then gently pushed the door open.
Wei Chizheng only turned on the bedside lamp, so the light was dim. However, it was enough for Xie Nanzhi to see his position clearly.
