Chapter 45 45. Touch Me "So you fell in love with Shi Jingzhou?" ...
If you keep going, her skin will become bald.
Everyone was watching. She picked up a small silver fork, pierced the red flesh, and handed it to Shi Jingzhou's mouth before the juice dripped.
"Hubby, eat some fruit." She waited for someone to come closer and whispered in his ear, gritting her teeth and whispering, "Don't touch me, for at least three days!"
Shi Jingzhou was very pleased with the first half of the word "husband", and was even more delighted to hear her throwing a tantrum like a spoiled child. He held Mi Yanyan's soft wrist and raised it, and replied.
"My wife is very sweet. Have another piece."
Mi Yanyan pressed the spoon into his palm and said, "Use the spoon to eat whatever you want." Then she picked up the teacup and took a sip, no longer pretending with him.
Shi Jingzhou still didn't let go, but just put the food on the table on his legs and ate the whole piece of fruit by himself.
At the end of the banquet, Shi Huaizhi stood up and glared at Shi Jingzhou, who looked flattering.
"Jingzhou, Yan Ge, come with me to the study."
Mi Yanyan pulled her sweaty hand away and, seeing he didn't move, urged, "Didn't you hear me calling you?" Shi Jingzhou's eyes were as dark as a pond in deep winter, without a ripple. He sighed and replied, "I'll be back soon."
The temperature in South City was approaching below zero at the end of the year. Yan Ge was dressed in a delicate black lace dress. Last time she exposed her breasts, but today she showed off her graceful back. She was waiting at the corridor with her arms folded.
When Shi Jingzhou came over, he smiled happily, pointed at his clothes and said a few words. Shi Jingzhou lowered his eyes with no visible expression, and the two of them walked towards the study, one in front and the other behind.
Ye Qionghua was called to the kitchen to discuss arrangements for supper, and the table was silent and dejected.
Mi Yanyan rubbed her fingertips. Fortunately, this was a family marriage, and everyone involved had to be self-aware. If they were really in love and in a free love relationship, they would have died on the spot from thyroid nodules and breast cysts.
If I had known that the old man of the Shi family disliked me so much, I would not have gotten involved in this mess. Mi Yanyan touched the tea bowl in front of her in a daze, feeling disappointed.
"Madam." There was a warm light behind her, and she turned around and saw a kind woman.
The other woman had a ruddy complexion and white hair, and was wearing a dark green cheongsam of classical style and exquisite workmanship. When she smiled, her eyes curved into crescents. She introduced herself, "Aunt Chen was worried that you might feel uncomfortable in the old house for the first time, so she asked me to take good care of you. I'll make you some freshly brewed red date tea to take away the cold."
As he spoke, he replaced the cold tea on the table. A burst of hot steam hit Mi Yanyan, and her eyes became moist.
"What's your name?"
"My last name is Jiang. Jingzhou has called me Aunt Jiang since he was a child. If you don't mind, you can call me that too."
"Yes, all right, Aunt Jiang."
The woman looked at Mi Yanyan with eyes full of doting, and reached out to stroke her cuffs. "Madam, you look so beautiful in this dress. It almost made me dazed."
Mi Yanyan was embarrassed by the compliment and subconsciously pulled in her stomach. She said playfully, "I don't wear cheongsam often. I'm afraid that the buttons will break if I eat too much."
"A cheongsam looks good only when it's rounded and plump. Don't worry about it," Aunt Jiang said, pointing to the table. "Drink it while it's hot. I'll get you more if you like."
After a mouthful of sugary water, she wanted to say a few more words, but when she looked up, she saw Yan Ge approaching. When he came up, he glanced at the woman, then turned his gaze to Mi Yanyan, and waved his hand towards the courtyard outside, "Miss Mi, can you chat for a few minutes?"
Mi Yanyan went around to look at the study room. The door was closed. Yan Ge said with a smile, "Jingzhou and Grandpa have something to talk about. They can't come out for a while."
If I can't get out, I can't get out. I just don't want to talk nonsense with you, not because I'm afraid.
"Okay." she replied.
The cold wind was blowing, and the Chinese-style courtyard was well-maintained, but it lacked a bit of human touch. Mi Yanyan shuddered and saw Yan Ge pulling at his coat in an exaggerated manner.
The jacquard pattern on the black suit shimmers in the moonlight, and the familiar base notes are faintly emanating from the fabric. This is a limited edition winter haute couture model and was delivered to my home just last week.
This is Shi Jingzhou's coat.
Mi Yanyan lost her patience instantly, "What's the matter?"
"Miss Mi, do you know why Grandpa wanted you to marry Shi Zekai?"
"I don't want to know."
Her tone was extremely calm, without any personal emotion. Yan Ge was annoyed by her lazy look. No wonder Shi Huaizhi agreed to the Mi family's proposal, saying that the apple of the family's eye was sensible, quiet and thoughtful.
The biggest advantage is that he is law-abiding and has no ambition.
"Someone like you is perfect for the eldest brother of the Shi family. Grandpa raised Jingzhou single-handedly with the intention of having him inherit the Shi family's pharmaceutical company. Shi Zekai and his father Shi Ye are intent on competing for it, so he needs a wife like you who has nothing to do."
She is of no help and has an ordinary family background. Marrying her to Shi Zekai seems to be marrying her into the Shi family, but in fact it is just to suppress the restless intentions of the eldest brother's family.
Then he betrothed Yan Ge to Shi Jingzhou, and the two of them joined forces to take over Ruisi.
Mi Yanyan didn't expect that such a family could put so much thought and planning into a woman they had never met. She spread her hands and smiled in response.
"What a pity, in the end I became Mrs. Shi Jingzhou."
It was hard to tell whether it was out of boasting or helplessness as Yan Ge pulled her coat tighter. "I thought you'd behave yourself, but after marrying Jing Zhou, you weren't content and took advantage of the situation to steal half of Jing Zhou's shares. Now Ruisi is in turmoil. If we're not careful, all Jing Zhou's years of hard work will go to waste."
She doesn't want it, okay?
Ruisi’s shares were just numbers to her, but since they could make Yan Ge so angry, she just took them.
It was Shi Jingzhou who proposed the marriage. Although she didn't know why, she felt innocent too.
She's not completely innocent either. She also has selfish motives and wants to please her grandfather.
"If Miss Yan likes the Shi family so much, why not try to recommend yourself." Mi Yanyan's expression was sincere as she spoke, her nose was crystal clear and translucent, and she pointed at Shi Zekai with her little hand.
Shi Zekai had been watching the fight for a long time, listening carefully to every word and action. When he was suddenly cueed, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
Yan Ge has a reputation for being arrogant and domineering, but he is not worthy of it.
On the other hand, the daughter of the Mi family looked very delicate when she was provoked, but she was very harsh when she was bullied. She looked much softer and cuter than the rumors said.
It was no longer possible to hide in the dark, so Shi Zekai walked straight over, put out the cigarette in his hand and stopped in front of the two of them.
"You're joking, sister-in-law. Miss Yan and I aren't close friends, so we can't get that far." He draped the long cashmere cardigan draped over his arm over Mi Yanyan's shoulders. "It's cold outside, and it's unacceptable for you to catch a cold on your rare visit home."
Mi Yanyan dodged sideways but to no avail and managed to get back on track.
"Don't worry, big brother. Shi Jingzhou and I aren't very familiar with each other, but we're still inseparable."
Mi Yanyan has already determined that there are no good people in this house except Shi Jingzhou's parents and Aunt Jiang, so she will target them indiscriminately and tell them not to get close to her.
Quick footsteps came from inside the house. Shi Jingzhou asked as he walked in, "Where's my coat?"
He had a big argument with the old man, and hurried out after saying that he would never bring Mi Yanyan back. Looking back, he found that his suit was gone from the back of the chair. Then he glanced again and saw that the three people in the yard had different expressions. He turned his head and spoke loudly to the inner room.
"Aunt Jiang, could you please get my coat from my room?"
Mi Yanyan rubbed her palms with a confused look in her eyes. Shi Jingzhou walked over and hugged her. Her body, which usually felt so soft when held in his hand, now resisted stiffly.
He cursed himself in his heart for taking off his clothes for no reason. He thought it would be better to lock up all his things in the future, as he was afraid that someone with dirty hands might take them without permission.
A look of disgust swept over, and Yan Ge wanted to take off his coat and return it, but was stopped by Shi Jingzhou.
"No, since you've already taken it, just wear it. I don't like strangers touching my things."
He has done his best for Yan Ge. Due to the friendship between the older generations of the Yan and Shi families, he had to give in to her and avoid her when they were studying. Later, when he instigated Shi Huaizhi to get engaged several times, he dragged his feet. That was in the past when he was single.
Now his wife is right in front of him, and there are people, cats and dogs waiting for him at home. He knows clearly that Yan Ge has crossed the line.
Picking up Mi Yanyan's annoying sweater and throwing it behind him, Shi Jingzhou exchanged it for a woolen coat that Aunt Jiang had kept warm. He tucked the two strands of hair that had been covering her unhappy face behind her ears and raised his eyebrows: "Let's go home. We still have a mission to complete."
Complete your uncle Shi Jingzhou.
She kept losing things all day long, and Yan Ge took them all without even noticing. When would she forget her home again? After cursing in her heart, she calmed down, nodded and said goodbye to Shi's parents, then got into the car without looking back.
That night, Mi Yanyan locked the bedroom door. Shi Jingzhou went to the study to find the key. When he opened it, he found a dressing table behind the door, with two stools blocking it. It made a loud noise when it moved. The person inside was sleeping soundly with half of his face buried in the pillow. Shi Jingzhou had no choice but to retreat.
The door was half open, and Peanut stepped directly over his instep and swaggered into the house without even wagging his tail.
He does have some ability to guard the house.
I was guarding the wrong person. It was a waste of so many dried meat snacks. I have no conscience.

Yu Wan waited for Mi Yanyan at the door for half an hour before seeing her slowly coming out of the hospital. He put his arm around her shoulders and strangled her neck.
"Okay, Mrs. Shi, I heard that you've been taking advantage of your favor and are doing a lot of harm in the Shi family lately?"
"Bah, I was killed, okay?"
Strangely enough, upon returning home from the family dinner, rumors spread that the second young master's new wife was arrogant and difficult, disrespecting her elders and leaving the table early. Fortunately, few people recognized Mi Yanyan, and they only said that she was beautiful and dignified, but of low character and used foul language in front of her elders.
"You should have a chance to vomit then. The old man from the Shi family didn't pay any attention to me at all."
To be precise, I didn't even bother to look at it.
"I don't think it's a good idea. Let's not go there anymore. Why would we want to show it to that old man?" Yu Wan heard it from Qin Muchuan. He smashed a bottle of good wine at him on the spot and ordered him to find out the truth within three days to see who has the more itchy mouth and deserves a slap in the face.
"Where are we going to eat tonight?" Mi Yanyan started the motorcycle. Yu Wan jumped on and put on his helmet. "Let's go to my house for a drink."
The two hit it off immediately and weaved through the evening rush hour traffic.
Sitting on the carpet, Mi Yanyan reached out to grab the bottle of red wine at her feet, and when she saw that it was empty, she put it down again.
"Have you talked to Qin Muchuan?"
"I dare not discuss it. Their family is so wealthy and powerful that they might arrange a family marriage someday."
"So do you like him?"
Mi Yanyan knew that Yu Wan was always decisive. If she didn't have real feelings for him, she would have blocked and deleted Qin Muchuan and never met him again. She wouldn't be so clingy and check her phone every half an hour.
"It's no use liking someone. We moved too fast and got to this point without thinking. Now we realize we're nothing."
Qin Muchuan treated him very well, but only after they met in person.
But after waking up, they always separated. He traveled back and forth between South City and Hong Kong all year round, and he would not see anyone for three to five days at the shortest, or half a month at the longest.
Seeing Mi Yanyan's melancholy eyes, she comforted herself: "Oh, it's okay, at worst we can break up, and I won't suffer any loss."
"If I hadn't married Shi Jingzhou, you wouldn't have met him."
Mi Yanyan later found out that Yu Wan met Qin Muchuan because he went to Yichuan to look for a location for her. Shi Jingzhou said that most of Qin Muchuan's family assets had been transferred to Hong Kong, and he would only have half a year left in Nancheng at most.
"He's Yichuan's partner, and we'll meet sooner or later." Yu Wan believes that love is destined. You can't avoid those you're destined to meet, and you can't push away those you want to stay with. "Sometimes I feel that falling in love with people like them is self-denial, and marrying them is self-destruction."
Mi Yanyan laughed after hearing this, "It's not self-destruction, but there is self-denial."
Yu Wan raised the corner of her mouth and asked with narrowed eyes: "So you are in love with Shi Jingzhou?"
