Chapter 41
Yu Zhengyang: "Awake?"
Nan Tao was confused for a moment, then felt her feet leave the ground. She looked down and saw that she was being held.
Seeing her son staring at her without blinking, Nan Tao blushed and quickly flapped her legs, "Put me down, I can walk by myself."
Yu Zhengyang put Nan Tao down.
Nan Tao said heartlessly, "Why didn't you call me?"
Yu Zhengyang didn't say anything and walked side by side with his wife in silence.
At the entrance to the villa's living room, Steward Lin waited anxiously. Finally, he saw the master bring back the young mistress and the young master. He hurried forward to ask for instructions, "Dinner is ready."
Nan Tao touched her stomach and hesitated for a moment between taking a shower or eating first. She decided to eat first. "Eat first."
Yu Zhengyang asked the kitchen to prepare meals that Nan Tao and Yu Ze liked, which were nutritious, healthy, balanced, and had moderate energy levels so they wouldn't make them fat.
Yu Ze saw the black tiger shrimp on the table and said, "These are the shrimps I like to eat."
Nan Tao: "Hey, how do you know my son likes to eat this?"
Yu Zhengyang: "The chef made it."
After Nan Tao and her son finished their meal, they leaned back in their chairs comfortably and didn't want to move.
Housekeeper Lin walked over to Nan Tao and reported, "Madam, Jiang Qian was released on bail this morning, but was arrested again by the police."
Nan Tao frowned. "Bail? Who bailed her out? And what's with the arrest?"
Housekeeper Lin: "She was released on bail this morning and blocked my husband at the villa entrance. She was ultimately detained for assaulting a police officer."
Nan Tao: "Blocking someone? Haha, you're so lucky."
Yu Zhengyang: "Why didn't you tell me she came to see you?"
Nan Tao rolled her eyes: "What did I say to you? The mistress is here to force the emperor to abdicate?"
Yu Zhengyang's face was cold. "You don't believe me?"
Nan Tao: "I don't believe you, how can you still sit here? You should have gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce."
Yu Zhengyang's eyes were dark, and he exuded a low pressure. It was unknown what he was thinking in his deep eyes.
Nan Tao didn't care about him and asked Butler Lin, "Go on."
Steward Lin: "The truck driver came forward to bail me out and said he would compensate me for the original price of the gemstones."
Nan Tao raised her eyebrows: "That driver? He compensated?"
Did you hear that right? Her necklace is worth over a million yuan, it's not just some cheap cabbage on the street.
If the truck driver had money, he wouldn't have pretended to be someone else to sleep with a woman for half a million dollars. It seems weird no matter how you think about it.
Nan Tao asked, "Did someone pay for him? Otherwise, where would he get so much money? He couldn't have fallen in love with Jiang Qian and was willing to lose everything, right?"
Steward Lin coughed softly, "That's not the case. The chairman of the Li Group gave me the money. It will be transferred to your account in two days."
Nan Tao: "Is it the Li Group that I know?"
Butler Lin: "Yes."
Nan Tao: "Why? That's so weird."
Steward Lin: "I've gotten some information privately, but it's not certain at the moment. It's said that the truck driver is Chairman Li's biological son, and the son he raised with him is a fake and not related by blood."
Nan Tao: "This is so ridiculous, is this a real or fake young master?"
This is so weird, is it such a coincidence?
She had been hesitant between Jiang Qian and Rong Ya, but now she felt that Jiang Qian was more like the charming heroine. Although the Li Group was not as wealthy as the Nanyu family, it also had a place in Hai City. She remembered that her own Nan Group had cooperated with the Li Group. Thinking about it this way, it was very likely that Jiang Qian's child was a descendant of the Li Group, a wealthy family, and had a man by her side.
But there is one thing I can't understand. Shouldn't the charming heroine be very beautiful? Even if she is not as pretty as me, she should at least be as pretty as Rong Ya. Jiang Qian looks too ordinary. Calling her a beautiful girl is a compliment.
And the most important point is that the truck driver was very old. She remembered that he was almost 40 years old, a decade and a half older than Jiang Qian. The key point was that the truck driver was ugly.
If the men surrounding a heartthrob are all like this, to be honest, she feels a little sympathetic, and it doesn't matter if this heartthrob heroine doesn't become one.
My husband is still the best looking.
Nan Tao stared at Yu Zhengyang's face, fascinated.
But then I thought, if I don’t wake up, I will face a tragic end and my husband will belong to someone else.
Nan Tao said angrily: "Humph, it's all your fault that I'm in love with you."
Yu Zhengyang: "I don't know her."
Nan Tao blinked, "How is that possible? She used to be Xiaoze's tutor and often came to our house."
Yu Zhengyang: “I don’t know him.”
Nan Tao reluctantly believed his words and turned to ask Butler Lin, "What's the matter with administrative detention for assaulting a police officer?"
Housekeeper Lin said, "She came and blocked Mr.'s car right after she was released on bail this morning. She said she was pregnant with Mr.'s child. Mr. didn't know Jiang Qian and thought she was mentally ill, so he called the police..."
Nan Tao burst out laughing, interrupting Steward Lin, "Hahaha, that's hilarious. It's a pity I wasn't there and missed such a wonderful scene."
Nan Tao gave Yu Zhengyang a thumbs up. If she were Jiang Qian, she would definitely be so angry that she would vomit blood. She was pregnant with "his" child, but he thought she was a lunatic and even called the police.
I have to say, she felt really good to hear this strange direction from the housekeeper.
Housekeeper Lin continued, "When the police arrived to mediate, Jiang Qian insisted the child was her husband's. Her husband then provided evidence to prove it. Jiang Qian didn't believe it and thought the police were biased. She got angry and started beating him. I rushed out and showed the police the hotel evidence I had recovered. The truth finally came out, and Jiang Qian was devastated. She was taken back to the police station for administrative detention for assaulting a police officer."
Nan Tao gossip: "Ayang, what evidence did you provide?"
Yu Zhengyang had no expression on his face.
Seeing that he remained silent, Nan Tao tried to persuade him softly and hard, but it was still useless. She hummed in anger, and suddenly remembered something, and asked Butler Lin again: "Does Jiang Qian know who bailed her out?"
Steward Lin: "We probably don't know yet."
Nan Tao relayed through Housekeeper Lin that she had finished eating all the melons, stood up, and said to Yu Ze, "Come on, son, go upstairs and take a shower and go to bed."
After sending Yu Ze into the bedroom, Nan Tao was pushed against the wall by the man as soon as she entered her room.
Nan Tao's watery almond eyes widened, and she rested her palms on the man's chest. Looking at his handsome face, her heart pounded. Even after being married for so many years, she was still easily aroused by him. As expected, handsome men are pleasing to the eye in everything they do. She restrained her heart that was about to jump out of her throat and said coquettishly, "What are you doing? You scared me so suddenly."
Yu Zhengyang's dark eyes were filled with different emotions, and his magnetic and charming voice was low and seductive: "Taotao."
Nan Tao's face was burning, her cheeks flushed, and her voice softened uncontrollably. "Stop it, I need to take a shower quickly. I'm so sticky."
Yu Zhengyang chuckled: "I'll accompany you?"
Take a bath with her? Is that called a bath? Don't wait until then...
Seeing that her imagination was becoming more and more preoccupied, Nan Tao quickly stopped thinking and said angrily, "What are you thinking about? No." After saying that, she pushed the person away and ran into the bathroom and closed the door.
Seeing that she was unable to avoid him, Yu Zhengyang smiled helplessly.
In the bathroom, Nan Tao stood under the shower, covering her heart with her small hands. What's wrong with this bastard man lately? He's always flirting with her. Maybe he's learned some advice from an emotional expert.
Really, every time when she just wanted to be a respectful couple with him, he would inexplicably touch her heartstrings, just like before, making her unable to retreat or advance.
Is this the trouble of having a crush on someone? You know he doesn't like you, but as long as he's a little nice to you, you can't help but feel happy and joyful, and even want to throw away your dignity and get back together with him.
But if I were to be so spineless, would I be justified in the grievances I'd suffered over the years? Why should he do whatever he wanted, summon me with just a snap of his fingers?
Nan Tao pouted. She didn't want this to happen. She was the eldest daughter of the Nan Group, the apple of her parents' and brother's eyes. Even if the person she loved first lost out emotionally, she couldn't show it.
I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice the bathroom door was open.
Seeing the man suddenly appear, Nan Tao covered her body shyly. She had been so cold and ruthless just now and wanted to treat him with respect, but now she couldn't control her shyness.
Nan Tao complained about her own spinelessness while softly saying, "Why did you come in so suddenly~"
Yu Zhengyang's Adam's apple rolled, "Taotao, you are my wife."
Nan Tao was bewildered: "I know."
Yu Zhengyang pinched his brows, took a long step forward, and pushed the person against the wall, "Taotao, I am your husband."
The water droplets from the shower head dripped onto the man, wetting his clothes. The clothes clung tightly to the man's skin, outlining his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and strong and sturdy skin.
Nan Tao couldn't help swallowing her saliva. Why did she feel like Yu Zhengyang was a male seductress seducing her? Ahhhh, her husband was so handsome, she really wanted to pounce on him.
But she couldn't do that. She had to be reserved. Being too eager and proactive would reveal her feelings. If he saw through her love for her, wouldn't she lose? He had always been someone else's child, better than her in every way. She couldn't lose to him even in her feelings now.
No, no, Nan Tao, you need to wake up quickly. Beauty can be misleading.
Nan Tao struggled to withdraw her gaze from the man's sexy collarbone and reached out to push him: "Get out quickly, I'm taking a shower."
Yu Zhengyang: “…”
Why doesn't this trick work?
Yu Zhengyang began to doubt his own charm.
Nan Tao touched his slightly hot skin with her palm, and felt an itch in her heart. She forced herself to withdraw her hand and drove him away again, saying, "Get out quickly, or I'll be angry."
Yu Zhengyang stood and looked down at the woman's bright and brilliant eyes, which were like countless stars shining with crystal light, dazzling and charming.
Nan Tao pouted: "I'm serious, I'm about to get angry."
Yu Zhengyang sighed inwardly, pinched his brows, and turned away helplessly.
But he didn't go far. He leaned against the wall at the bathroom door, looking down in thought.
Until he heard the sound of the shower water disappear and the sound of a woman's slippers tapping on the floor, he pushed open the door and went back into the bathroom.
Nan Tao had just finished taking a shower. Her face was as rosy as a peach and she was as beautiful as a fairy. She was wearing a deep V-neck, thin silk black pajamas with suspenders, revealing skin as white as snow.
Yu Zhengyang watched her slowly walking towards him. The deep V neckline revealed her snow-white and sexy cleavage, and her slender waist was well-proportioned. His gaze moved downwards, and under the halter dress that barely covered her hips were a pair of snow-white, straight and slender legs. Beneath her legs were round and attractive feet that could be held in one hand.
If he can still tolerate this, is he still a man?
She is his wife!
Yu Zhengyang strode forward, his tall body blocking the woman's view. He placed his hands on her slender and soft waist, gently exerted force, pinched her waist and hugged her to sit on the sink.
