Qi Yijuan had always been like this: outwardly aloof, inwardly brutal and cold-blooded, but in front of Qiao Zhen, he always appeared obedient, dependent, and submissive, occasionally even acting coquettishly. "Don't you like it?"
Qiao Zhen bent down and handed her a grape. Her eyes crinkled with laughter as she whispered, "I like it, I like it no matter what. And you're so cute, how could I not like you?"
Qi Yijuan was sitting on the sofa. He looked up at Qiao Zhen standing in front of him and pouted.
Qiao Zhen laughed heartily at his kissing expression, "Hahahaha."
Qi Yijuan's expression gradually turned resentful, but his pouting lips grew higher and higher, just waiting for Qiao Zhen to pluck them.
Qiao Zhen pinched his lips and made them look like a flat duck's beak. She said with a hint of worry, "Don't be silly. I suddenly left seven years ago. Did you become the laughing stock of City A?"
She looked at the man with a hint of heartache in her eyes.
Qi Yijuan took Qiao Zhendi's hand and placed it on his chest. "It hurts so much, and it still hurts now. I need a kiss to feel better." He then pouted.
Qiao Zhen leaned over and kissed him.
Qi Yijuan, pushing his luck, pointed to his chest and looked at Qiao Zhen expectantly, "**It hurts too.**"
Qiao Zhen lightly slapped Qi Yijuan's face with her palm; he was becoming increasingly shameless. She pushed Qi Yijuan down, then flipped over and straddled his stomach, her hands tightly gripping his neck. "Give me back my little puppy!"
"Cough cough cough..." Qi Yijuan rolled over and pinned Qiao Zhen beneath him, suddenly feeling a bit like a serf finally getting a chance to sing. He smiled provocatively, "No!"
Just as Qi Yijuan was about to break into the city, Qiao Zhen retorted, "Come in! Let's have a three-hundred-round battle. Today we can perfectly miss the Civil Affairs Bureau's opening hours."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yijuan immediately wilted. He felt somewhat sad. It should have been Qiao Zhen who felt guilty, and he should have been the one who was in the right. But in the end, he was still completely under Qiao Zhen's thumb.
"Hmph!" Qi Yijuan snorted, then got up and rushed into the bathroom, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.
Qiao Zhen lay on the bed laughing heartily. She took out a tissue to clean herself up, then got up and tidied her clothes. "Hurry up, the household registration book is almost here."
Speak of the devil, and he appears. The doorbell rang, and Qiao Zhen opened the door to see a tall person. Who is that?
"Hello, are you looking for someone?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Qi Yijuan. Are you his nanny? Please move aside, don't delay me."
Qiao Zhen brushed the hair that was covering her face behind her ear and smiled, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qi can't receive any other guests today. I'm taking care of him."
The woman seemed to have heard a joke, "Are you kidding me? Do you think Qi Yijuan is some kind of street vendor? Someone you can afford to keep as a mistress?"
Qiao Zhen licked her teeth with her tongue and grinned. "He's after the person, not the clothes. Besides, these days you can make cheap clothes look like they're custom-made. Can you do that? Even if I wore cheap clothes, he'd still beg me to be his sugar daddy. What could I do? I can't just turn down money."
The woman's expression changed slightly. She seemed surprised that Qiao Zhen would be so shameless, and she didn't believe a word of what he had just said.
Qiao Zhen didn't care who this woman was; she was in a terrible temper right now. She slammed the door shut, walked to the bathroom door, and knocked loudly and urgently, "Someone's looking for you. Come out quickly."
Qi Yijuan was also finished inside. He was taking a shower when he heard Qiao Zhen's voice. He quickly rinsed off and came out wrapped in a towel. "Who was looking for me?"
Qiao Zhen rolled her eyes. "How should I know?" She noticed that Qi Yijuan's hair and clothes were dripping with water, and habitually picked up a dry towel and ruffled his hair. "It's chilly outside, don't catch a cold. There's a woman outside, change your clothes before inviting her in. Oh, if she's still here."
Qi Yijuan adored Qiao Zhen's jealousy; he hugged Qiao Zhen and gave her a big kiss, saying, "I'm yours."
"Mhm." Qiao Zhen's expression was very serious and solemn. "Remember when you go out in the future, you are a married man, so don't mess around."
Her possessiveness and territoriality pleased Qi Yijuan greatly. The man squinted his eyes, enjoying Qiao Zhen's head-pulling service.
But Qiao Zhen knew it still wouldn't work. Qi Yijuan still lacked a sense of security. Alas, it was all Taibai and the system's fault. They had driven a cute boy (just kidding!) into this dark wolfhound (darkened + little wolfhound).
She felt a chill run down her spine when she thought about the desolate look in Qi Yijuan's eyes as he came out carrying formaldehyde that day.
Qi Yijuan changed into a black suit, looking very formal. Afraid that Qiao Zhen would misunderstand, he specially explained, "I'm dressed so nicely because I'm going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to take photos."
Qiao Zhen said with a hint of disdain, "It's not like I usually make you dress in rags."
She walked to the door and opened it, finding the woman still there. She stepped aside to make room for her, saying, "Please come in."
The woman glanced at Qiao Zhen, a smug smile playing on her lips. She had toned down her imposing aura upon entering, becoming rather amiable. She raised her chin and pointed at Qiao Zhen, "Yi Juan, and who is she?"
Qi Yijuan casually picked up a transparent glass that was lying upside down on a plate from the coffee table. "Zhenzhen, go pour some water."
Wow, she seems quite comfortable giving him orders.
Qiao Zhen skipped into the kitchen with the cup to pour water, then skipped back to put it away.
Qi Yijuan introduced her as follows: "This is my wife, Qiao Zhen."
Qiao Zhen took a deep breath, straightened her back, and sat down next to Qi Yijuan with full confidence.
