Chapter 89 He Cheated
Qi Chenyan chuckled, teasingly asking, "What's our relationship?"
Yu Li knew he was teasing her on purpose, so she rested her chin on her hand and snapped her fingers.
"Espionage relationship."
She kindly explained, "They're husband and wife at home, but strangers outside. It's like playing spy house, doesn't it fit perfectly?"
Qi Chenyan raised an eyebrow. "But we've recorded shows together, eaten together, and even watched talent shows together. Are we still strangers?"
Yu Li raised her hand and asked, "I agree with the first two points, but when is this talent show?"
Qi Chenyan did not answer the question immediately, but suddenly moved closer, his thin lips only inches away from her ear.
So every word he uttered, every breath he took, was like a stream of air that pierced into Yu Li's ears, making her feel as if she had been struck by an electric current.
It's tingling and numb, enough to make your heart race.
"Should I have my second nephew come over and recreate the scene?"
"But I think it's the same as watching the video we just recorded. After all, his singing is just so-so, and you're not his fan, so there's no need to torture your ears again."
Yu Li burst out laughing.
In this world, the only person who would dare to so openly say that Qi Xiaoyun's singing is terrible and that it's ear-damaging is probably Qi Chenyan, his uncle.
As expected of a close relative, if Qi Xiaoyun's fans heard this, they would surely rush over and skin him alive.
Yu Li raised her hand and covered Qi Chenyan's mouth, leaning closer and deliberately lowering her voice to say, "Director Qi may not have witnessed the terrifying power of fans."
"Just from what you just said, they can use the internet to dig up information about your ancestors for eighteen generations."
"But now, only I heard it, so I have leverage over you. From now on, Director Qi, you'll have to listen to me obediently."
"Otherwise, I'll expose these words online, and you're finished, hahaha!"
Qi Chenyan had a pair of peach blossom eyes that were as bright as the Milky Way. He stared at one person with deep affection.
He hummed in agreement, very cooperatively: "How does Miss Yu want me to cooperate? Physically, or mentally?"
Yu Li suddenly felt as if her palm had been burned by the other person's airflow.
"Ms. Yu, would you like me to go over the script?"
Qi Xiaoyun knocked on the door and came in, just in time to see Yu Li and Qi Chenyan.
One was standing, while the other was sitting.
Yu Li's hand was still covering Qi Chenyan's lips.
The distance between the two people had far exceeded the normal social distance.
At this distance, Qi Chenyan only needed to raise his arm slightly to capture Yu Li's slender waist in his palm.
Qi Xiaoyun's words caught in his throat.
He felt as if he had stumbled upon some terrible scene of infidelity.
If he remembers correctly, just yesterday, his uncle seemed to have officially announced his marriage on his WeChat Moments.
The news was so sudden, like a thunderbolt, that it shook the entire Qi family.
Grandpa Qi, in particular, was so excited that he didn't sleep all night, muttering to himself, "That brat has finally come to his senses! He didn't even bring his daughter-in-law home to check her out right away!"
But today, right here, right under his nose, his uncle actually cheated on him!
That's right, Qi Xiaoyun's brain, which is only good for writing songs, couldn't possibly have imagined a second possibility.
The only guess that can be made is that Qi Chenyan actually cheated on his wife!
To everyone's surprise, the person in the Qi family who seemed to be the most serious and strict in his lifestyle was actually this kind of person.
They're always looking for something better, even after getting married. They're already having affairs outside the marriage.
No wonder, at the dinner just now, my uncle spoke up for this female host and even deliberately made those executives drink baijiu.
He found it strange at the time, and realized that he was venting his anger for his mistress!
But no matter how cool my uncle was just now, it was all for his lover.
If his wife found out, wouldn't it cause a scandal in no time, ruining his reputation, family, and career?
No, absolutely not!
Although his uncle was strict and fierce towards them, he was also the person he admired most since childhood.
He absolutely could not allow a female host to bewitch his uncle and ruin his uncle's family and career!
In those three seconds, while Qi Xiaoyun's thoughts were wandering, Yu Li, as if burned, quickly withdrew her hand.
Feeling a little guilty and trying to cover it up, she pinched her earlobe.
"Um, a mosquito just flew onto Director Qi's face, and I'm swatting it."
His mouth moved faster than his brain, and he made up an excuse.
But in reality, Qi Xiaoyun is family, so there's no need for her to lie to hide her relationship with Qi Chenyan.
Qi Chenyan originally wanted to say, "This is your aunt," but before he could say it, Yu Li had already made up a reason.
Never mind, I'll formally introduce Yu Li's identity when we go to the old house.
To prevent Qi Xiaoyun, that big mouth, from saying anything inappropriate or detrimental to Yu Li's image in front of the Qi family.
After all, Yu Li and Qi Jianyue were rivals, and his two nephews weren't very bright.
Even if you treat a sister with no blood relation with the best of your ability, what if Qi Xiaoyun, in order to avenge Qi Jianyue, deliberately slanders Yu Li in front of Old Master Qi?
Although Qi Chenyan wasn't afraid of these things, he still didn't want the grudges within the Qi family to affect his young wife.
Little did Qi Chenyan know that his silence only strengthened Qi Xiaoyun's suspicions.
Oh no! The newlywed brother-in-law is having an affair with a female TV host. This is not only a moral depravity, but also a crisis for his family and career!
"The script will be ready soon, Mr. Qi. Why don't you go and sit in the lounge next door for a while? I'll come back and go over the script with you later."
Qi Xiaoyun mustered his courage and suddenly stepped forward, grabbing Qi Chenyan's arm.
With a look of grim determination, he said, "Uncle, I have something very important to discuss with you privately!"
Qi Chenyan frowned slightly, but also stood up, saying only calmly, "Let go."
Before leaving with Qi Xiaoyun, Qi Chenyan turned to Yu Li and said, "I'll be back in a bit."
Yu Li nodded.
After the initial panic and attempt to cover things up, she stopped thinking about it and focused on the remaining script she hadn't finished writing.
Little did he know that Qi Chenyan's words, which sounded like a warning, made Qi Xiaoyun want to cover her mouth and scream.
Oh no, it seems my uncle has really fallen for this female host's sweet talk!
Heaven knows that his cold and aloof uncle, Qi Xiaoyun, has only ever heard him speak gently to him a handful of times in his entire life.
But he spoke to the female host not only gently, but also in a way that seemed to be a gentle reminder, as if he was worried that she might be concerned.
Upon arriving at the lounge, Qi Xiaoyun first cautiously observed whether anyone else was there, then quickly closed the door.
His words were earnest and deeply painful.
"Uncle, you really can't do this!"
