Chapter 224: Venomous Boss 11
Holding Yan Chen in her arms, Xu Qiuqiu was still in shock and didn't know what to say.
Not getting a response for a while, Yan Chen was a little unhappy. "Qiuqiu, why aren't you talking to me?"
"No, I was just thinking about something," Xu Qiuqiu replied haphazardly.
"What are you thinking about? Your first love?" Yan Chen felt a surge of resentment and couldn't bear it any longer, reminding her, "We're already married! You can only have me in your heart!"
Xu Qiuqiu was startled by him and said, "Fine, fine, whatever he says."
She could only coax him, "I'm not thinking about anyone else, don't overthink it."
Yan Chen hugged her tighter, his expression softening. "That's good."
His hot breath sprayed on her ear, and Xu Qiuqiu heard his slightly rapid breathing. She said with some fear, "Ah-Chu, why don't you go take a shower too?"
Yan Chen's eyes deepened. "Yes, okay."
A thought popped into his head: Was Qiuqiu inviting him to take a bath and go to bed?
After the banquet ended, Xu Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes filled with mixed emotions as she looked at the wardrobe and dressing mirror.
She suddenly remembered that the way he looked at her these days had indeed changed from time to time; perhaps he was sometimes lucid and sometimes in a state of illness.
He might wake up tomorrow.
The first time we met was at the hospital. He was holding his medical records, which proved that he knew he was sick and that he was undergoing treatment.
That means there should be medicine in his room.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiuqiu started looking for the cabinets in the room, but after searching for a long time, she found nothing.
How could there be no medicine?
She glanced at a safe under the table beside the bed; it was the only thing she hadn't opened yet.
She walked to the safe and squatted down. It was a combination lock, a four-digit combination lock. If she tried them one by one, she probably wouldn't be able to unlock it even by dawn.
"Qiuqiu, what are you doing?"
The sudden sound startled Xu Qiuqiu. She stood up abruptly and said somewhat awkwardly, "Ah-Chu, you washed so quickly?"
Yan Chen's gaze fell on the safe at Xu Qiuqiu's feet. He smiled knowingly, stepped forward, and took her hand. "Qiuqiu, do you want to see what's inside the safe?"
Although Yan Chen's expression remained normal, Xu Qiuqiu was still somewhat flustered. "Is...is it okay?"
Seeing the fear in her eyes, Yan Chen was a little puzzled. "Of course you can. I have no privacy when it comes to my wife."
Seeing that he didn't seem angry or displeased, Xu Qiuqiu felt a little relieved. "Then what's the password?"
"The password is, of course, the day we met."
Hearing his answer, Xu Qiuqiu felt a headache coming on. Who knew if the first time they met in his memory was on the same day as the first time she met in her memory?
She could only weakly ask, "Which day?"
Yan Chen was immediately enraged. "Why do I feel like you don't care about me at all? You don't remember when we met, you don't remember when we got married, and you don't even want me as your husband anymore, do you?"
He was so angry he could hardly breathe; he felt his heart being squeezed tightly, and pain spreading throughout his body.
Seeing that his face was turning pale, Xu Qiuqiu quickly comforted him, "No, no, I care about you."
Xu Qiuqiu felt utterly exhausted. How could she possibly know what he was imagining?
"Really?" Yan Chen looked at her skeptically.
"Really, really." Xu Qiuqiu nodded quickly.
After recovering, Yan Chen said, "From now on, you are not allowed to have any contact with your first love."
Xu Qiuqiu sighed helplessly, "Okay."
After receiving her promise, Yan Chen's expression returned to normal. He took her hand, walked to the safe, and swiped four numbers on his finger.
Xu Qiuqiu looked at the date; it was the day they met at the hospital. It seemed he hadn't imagined things would last long.
Getting married in such a short time, isn't that a whirlwind marriage?
The safe was unlocked, and Yan Chen looked at her obediently. "All done."
Xu Qiuqiu opened the door. Inside were a pile of photos and a jewelry box, but no medicine.
She picked up a photo, puzzled; it was a photo of herself.
She was startled. Could this safe be full of her photos?
She took another one, and it was still her photo.
She looked at Yan Chen in surprise, "Where...did you get the photos?"
"You gave it to me. Before we were even together, you sent me a box of your photos and told me to keep it safe." Yan Chen smiled as he said this. "I treasured it like a precious gem."
His smile was sunny, but it sent chills down Xu Qiuqiu's spine. Were these all taken secretly?
It's chilling to think about. Did he stalk her?
She could only keep reassuring herself that Ah-Chu was just sick, not a pervert.
She swallowed hard. "Then... what's in that box?"
Yan Xu took out the box and opened it to find a pair of rings. Under the light, the exquisitely carved diamonds sparkled.
He held the ring out to her, his voice tinged with regret, "Qiuqiu, we've only worn these rings once. I promised to keep our marriage a secret, so we haven't worn them since."
Xu Qiuqiu never expected that he would even prepare a ring, decorations for the house, clothes in the wardrobe, skincare products on the dressing table, and her preferences. No wonder he believed it without a doubt when he had an attack.
"Qiuqiu, let's not keep our marriage a secret, okay?" Yan Chen asked, his eyes pleading.
He hadn't wanted to keep his marriage a secret before, but Qiuqiu was too good at coaxing him, and he couldn't resist her, so he had no choice but to agree.
But now their relationship is in crisis, and if they continue to keep their marriage a secret, his wife will run off with someone else.
Seeing the pleading and vulnerability in his eyes, Xu Qiuqiu felt a pang of pity, but they weren't even married, so how could they go public with it?
She could only coax him, "Ah-Chu, how about we go public later?"
"Why?" Yan Chen felt particularly uncomfortable. "Do you not want others to know you have a husband?"
"No," Xu Qiuqiu immediately denied.
Give her some time to think about how to make it up, okay?
Yan Chen narrowed his eyes, his expression cold and stern. "Why is that?"
A dangerous atmosphere filled the air, and Xu Qiuqiu felt a little flustered by him. "Because...because my mother doesn't want me to get married too early, at least until I'm twenty-two, so...we can't go public yet..."
After she finished speaking, she noticed that the dangerous aura had disappeared. Yan Chen seemed to believe her, and lowered his eyes as if he was seriously thinking about something.
Yan Chen quickly looked up and stared directly at her, "Qiuqiu, did you steal the household registration book to marry me?"
Xu Qiuqiu chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes..."
Upon hearing this, Yan Chen smiled, put down the jewelry box, hugged her tightly, and whispered in her ear, "Qiuqiu, I love you."
His voice was soothing and sexy that Xu Qiuqiu's heart raced and her body felt as if it were being electrified.
[Ding! The female lead's happiness level has increased by 10%, currently at 30%]
After hugging her for a while, Yan Chen finally let go of her. His eyes sparkled as he looked at her with utmost tenderness. "Qiuqiu, why don't you give me Mom's phone number? I'll go talk to her."
"..." Xu Qiuqiu was stunned. Had she dug a hole for herself to fall into?
She had no choice but to change the subject, "Ah-Chu, it's so late, we should rest."
She had barely finished speaking when Yan Chen laughed, his voice hoarse, "So eager?"
What's the rush? Why can't she understand what he's saying?
Yan Xu felt a surge of passion in his heart. Qiu Qiu wanted to be intimate with him. He realized that it had been a long time since they had been intimate since their argument.
He actually wanted to, but since they had just reconciled, he didn't dare to do anything reckless. Now that Qiuqiu had agreed, as her husband, he should do his best to satisfy her.
Thinking of this, he carried her to the bed, leaned down and kissed her fair skin.
"What... are you doing..." Xu Qiuqiu gasped, pressing her hand against his chest. Her body felt numb, and her eyes welled up with tears.
Yan Chen looked up, his thin lips tinged with a bright red from the friction, "I want Qiu Qiu to be comfortable."
He gently coaxed her, "Don't rush, take your time. If you rush, you'll get hurt."
