Chapter 978 Should I call you Chi Yingzhou? Or Governor?
"But Mr. Chi, when will you reveal your identity?"
The manager asked curiously.
Miss Qu doesn't like being deceived, and she might get angry if this goes on for too long.
"Soon."
Chi Yingzhou thought for a moment, his expression serious: "I'll apologize to her after I clean up the trash."
Rubbish?
What kind of garbage?
The manager looked bewildered as he watched Chi Yingzhou's retreating figure.
——
evening.
After finishing her meal, Pei Jinwu, accompanied by Shang Shiyan, took a stroll in the casino garden.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance, I bumped into Lao Ou, who seemed to have been waiting there on purpose.
“Miss Pei, Mr. Shang.” Old Ou straightened up, his voice no longer feigned, “Do you have a moment? Would you two like to have a chat?”
"..."
Shang Shiyan looked at Pei Jinwu, waiting for his wife to give the order.
"Sure."
Pei Jinwu nodded, and only then did Shang Shiyan dare to speak: "Okay."
Chi Yingzhou gave Shang Shiyan a deep look, his expression complex.
It's really hard to associate him with the ruthless and decisive overlord of the Northern Continent.
Isn't this the epitome of a "henpecked husband"?!
The three of them sat down in the private room, and all the surveillance cameras were turned off.
After taking their seats.
Pei Jinwu looked at the disguised man opposite her, her beautiful red lips lazily curling up:
Should I call you Mr. Chi, or address you as Governor Chi?
"..."
Chi Yingzhou frowned, surprised for a few seconds, but quickly returned to normal.
Who are Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan?
The couple controlled two major hacker groups; investigating him would be as easy as lifting a finger.
"There's a reason I concealed my identity."
Chi Yingzhou sat opposite the two men, explaining with a serious expression.
"for example……"
Pei Jinwu crossed her long legs, her clear, starry eyes gazing at him.
Unable to get a word in edgewise, Shang Shiyan could only stand by and peel melon seeds.
“When Ali was choosing a bodyguard, she wouldn’t have wanted me if I had approached her using my identity as the governor of Xuanzhou.”
Chi Yingzhou took a deep breath and explained slowly, "So I created a tragic character for myself who was an orphan who grew up with his grandmother and worked in a casino to make a living, and was almost beaten half to death."
"..."
Pei Jinwu's gaze deepened, and Shang Shiyan paused for a few seconds to look at him.
Oh.
I never would have guessed that Chi Xiaogou was so cunning.
Why be a continental governor? Just tell your brother to get into acting!
They acted quite convincingly.
No wonder her sixth sister couldn't outmaneuver him.
"Secondly, I've made quite a few enemies over the years, and there are plenty of people who want to exploit my weaknesses." Chi Yingzhou added earnestly, "I don't want Ali to be threatened or harmed in any way."
"Three years ago, I created a persona and deliberately approached her..."
Pei Jinwu seized on the key words and said lazily, "Chi Yingzhou, you've been plotting against my sixth sister for a long time, haven't you?"
"yes."
Chi Yingzhou didn't hide anything and told the whole story: "I've liked Ali for over ten years."
More than ten years?
Upon hearing this, Pei Jinwu's playful expression vanished, replaced by surprise.
Shang Shiyan also raised his head and subtly raised an eyebrow.
“I liked her from the day she came to the orphanage.”
Chi Yingzhou leaned back in his chair, his back straight. When he mentioned their first encounter, his eyes softened: "It's a pity that I didn't get to meet her before Liang Muye appeared."
"..."
Pei Jinwu roughly understood what was going on.
What an innocent puppy!
"She insisted that I leave because she was struggling and in pain, which I can understand."
Chi Yingzhou looked up, his eyes serious: "But I can't leave her, so this is the only way I can stay by her side."
Pei Jinwu pursed her lips: "What else do you know?"
“I’m going to be a father.” Chi Yingzhou said, unable to suppress the smile on his lips. “Ali’s willingness to keep the child proves that she still cares about me, but she just can’t accept me right now.”
"What does it matter? I have plenty of time; I can spend my whole life wasting my time on her!"
Even though he couldn't get the title of "husband," he was content just to stay by her side.
He's a total love-struck fool!
"Take good care of her."
Seeing that he understood everything, Pei Jinwu didn't ask any more questions, but only instructed him: "Your identity is both a blessing and a curse. You'd better protect my sixth sister. If she suffers even the slightest harm, your Xuanzhou will not have an easy time."
The long-range artillery shells recently developed by the underground city can also be guided to Xuanzhou territory.
"Don't worry, I will protect Ali and the child."
Chi Yingzhou stood up, his head slightly lowered: "Please keep my identity a secret, Miss Pei and Master Shang."
Now that he's been exposed, he's in for a world of hurt in front of Ali.
At that point, the road to winning back his wife will be even longer.
"That would be best!"
Pei Jinwu withdrew her gaze, looked at Shang Shiyan, and yawned, saying, "Sleepy, let's go back."
"Um."
Shang Shiyan put his arm around her shoulder, and the two chatted as they walked back, their affectionate demeanor making others envious.
——
Qu Qingli finished her work.
Back in the room.
I saw Pei Jinwu lying on the bed, legs crossed, playing a game.
"Where's the old fox?" he asked, looking around in confusion.
"Next door, I'm all alone in my room tonight!" Pei Jinwu threw back the covers, patted the spot next to her, and said with a smirk, "Never mind him, come up and sleep with me!"
"OK!"
Qu Qingli smiled with narrowed eyes, quickly took a shower, lay down next to her sister, hugged her arm, and rubbed against her: "Wu Bao, why did you suddenly come to Xuanzhou?"
"I was worried about you, afraid you'd lose the puppy and hide away crying." Pei Jinwu lowered her eyes, looking at her sixth sister's happy face, feeling pleased: "But you seem to be in good spirits, so you can report back home."
"I'm fine."
Qu Qingli answered with a smile, saying it didn't matter, but she was still a little disappointed inside.
"Alright, take this time to think it over. Maybe Chi Yingzhou is still eagerly waiting for you to call him back."
Pei Jinwu touched her belly and said softly, "You have to be good too, you hear me?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than he felt a kick in the stomach.
"Oh my—"
Pei Jinwu was overjoyed and said lazily, "It's become a spirit! It's become a spirit! It wasn't even born yet, and it already knows how to talk to its aunt."
"puff--"
Qu Qingli couldn't help but laugh, sniffing as she said, "He's very clever; he even knows how to stand up for Chi Yingzhou!"
Maybe the baby knows that his father is a very good person.
——
early morning.
Pei Jinwu woke up early and gently pushed open the door to the next room.
In the bedroom, Shang Shiyan was still lying on the bed, fast asleep.
Pei Jinwu tiptoed over, intending to cover his eyes.
Just as he made a move, his wrist was suddenly grabbed. Shang Shiyan, who had woken up at some point, pulled him into his arms.
"You were awake a long time ago? You did it on purpose!" Pei Jinwu nestled in his arms.
"I was alone in the room last night and couldn't sleep at all, my wife." Shang Shiyan looked unwell as he buried his face in Pei Jinwu's neck and muttered his complaint.
"Sorry."
Pei Jinwu knew she was in the wrong, so she stroked his hair and patiently coaxed him, "How about I take you out to play today?"
Shang Shiyan asked, "Where are we going to play?"
Pei Jinwu: "How about Sunrise Casino?"
Shang Shiyan's lips curled up in a smile.
This little devil, don't you dare bankrupt the casino!
