Chapter 46 A Little Way to Please My Wife
More than an hour later, He Cong washed her clean and carried her out of the bathroom wrapped in a nightgown.
The bedroom temperature control was adjusted appropriately. Shang Youqing was lying lazily on the bed, while He Cong was half-squatting beside her, holding her wrist and applying medicine.
Shang Youqing glanced at the insignificant red mark on his wrist, then glanced at He Cong, who was looking down with a solemn and cautious expression, as if he was handling a rare and fragile work of art. He couldn't help but say, "If you apply it any later, the wound won't be found."
He Cong paused, ignored her, and continued to apply medicine to her wrist carefully.
Seeing this, Shang Youqing was too lazy to say anything more and simply closed his eyes.
After a while, she felt He Cong climbing up the edge of the bed and silently lying in her arms. Shang Youqing was not angry, but reached out and touched his deep-cut facial features.
Her fingertips were still a little wet, and she traced them back and forth along He Cong's tall and superior nose several times.
Just now, it was this straight nose that was rubbing against her...
Shang Youqing was still savoring the moment when He Cong suddenly grabbed his fingertips and kissed him on the lips.
Shang Youqing let him kiss her, glancing at him contentedly with his eyes lowered. "Where did you learn that?"
He Cong stroked her slender fingers, his lips curved up: "It's just a little trick to please my wife, there's no need to learn it."
Shang Youqing pulled his hand out from between his fingers and lifted his chin: "Are you still quite proud?"
Without waiting for He Cong to speak, Shang Youqing slowly increased the strength of his hands, "Just now in the bathroom, when I wasn't paying attention, who did you secretly send a message to?"
Shang Youqing didn't even think of checking his phone, he just wanted him to talk about it himself.
He Cong was stared at by her and quickly confessed, "I sent the relevant evidence to Uncle Yu. I said, no matter who it is, if they touch my wife, I will never forgive them."
As he spoke, his eyes revealed a hint of cruelty.
The next second, Shang Youqing grabbed his mouth and said, "If you dare to do that again, I'll punish you."
He Cong's thin lips were deformed by being pinched, but he still stared at his wife's pretty face.
“…”
Realizing that such a reprimand was a reward for He Cong, Shang Youqing snorted and pushed him away.
"It's good to give He Qizhou a warning, but He Cong, remember this: I taught you how to use a gun so you can protect yourself. If you do it again, I will never forgive you."
He Cong propped himself up and sat on the bed, staring at Shang Youqing's white and slender fingertips gently gathering the front collar of his nightgown that had just been messed up by his palms and then getting out of bed, but his mind was full of thoughts.
His wife is so nice.
Even if I was angry, I just said I would never forgive him.
Instead of rejecting him, give up on him.
He Cong's heart was filled with a great desire for satisfaction. Like a large beast, he lowered his head slightly and approached Shang Youqing's slender back, rubbing his face against his wife's fragrant neck. He agreed obediently, "I understand, honey."
Shortly after that day, news of the kidnapping of He Cong's attending physician Fu Ying quickly reached Mr. He. Coupled with some evidence presented to him, Mr. He was furious.
A family dinner was held that day to reprimand certain people with ulterior motives. Although no names were mentioned, after the dinner, several people who were about to be promoted to high positions in Bindao's political and business circles had their project plans all rejected by Mr. He. This was no different from killing a chicken to scare the monkey.
Because of this incident, the He family families that were openly fighting against each other have finally settled down temporarily in recent times.
During this period, He Cong helped Mr. He expand the resources and power of overseas branches.
Old Master He has become more and more appreciative of his returning eldest grandson, and has frequently taken He Cong with him when he goes out recently. While helping his grandfather share the affairs of the He family's business, He Cong has also worked hard to make many connections and lay the foundation for his future entrepreneurship.
The only thing is that during the time he was working hard outside, Shang Youqing rarely stayed with He Cong. He Cong mentioned it several times, but was ruthlessly rejected by Shang Youqing.
Of course, Shang Youqing didn't want to accompany him, but there were more important things for her to do.
Shang Youqing has been quietly investigating and uncovering potential dangers hiding in the He family who may pose a threat to He Cong's future.
As for those things that cannot be made public and cannot be touched by He Cong, she must of course take advantage of He Cong's absence to personally clear the obstacles for him.
However, when He Cong flew to North America to sign a project this time, Shang Youqing did encounter a minor accident.
She has been losing feathers frequently these days, and her body temperature is slightly higher than before. Although this heat is not a big deal for a phoenix, in order to avoid burning humans who come into contact with it, Shang Youqing simply stays in He Cong's bedroom.
I had planned to have a good sleep to refresh myself and make plans after He Cong returned to China, but I didn't expect to be woken up by a phone call after lying down for less than half a day.
The housekeeper from the He family's old house called and said that it was Old Madam He, He Cong's grandmother, who asked her to come over.
Shang Youqing had to wrap himself in a sweater and put on heat-insulating gloves before he got in the car arranged by the He family's old house and set off.
After arriving at the old house, Shang Youqing discovered that Fang Xinyuan, the wife He Qizhou married shortly after He Cong's mother passed away, was sitting next to Madam He.
Shang Youqing greeted the two of them politely, and was then pulled by Mrs. He to sit down and have tea and snacks.
Old Madam He knew that the reason her eldest grandson was able to recover and return to the He family was all thanks to Shang Youqing's careful care and treatment. In addition, Shang Youqing was really beautiful and likable, so Old Madam He looked at Shang Youqing with even more affection.
She took Shang Youqing's hand and said with a kind smile, "Xinyuan and I were originally saying that it was time for Acong to get married. We thought that when he returned from abroad this time, we would arrange for him to meet a daughter of a wealthy family who would be compatible with him. As we were chatting, we thought of Fuying. Speaking of which, Fuying, you know Acong best now. Why don't you help us see which daughter Acong would like?"
As soon as Mrs. He finished speaking, Fang Xinyuan had already brought some prepared information and photos to the table.
After just a quick glance, Shang Youqing came to the conclusion from these files that He Qizhou seemed to want to better control He Cong by having him marry the daughter of the Ji family.
Because among so many files, only the file of the daughter of the Ji family was obviously carefully designed, and every aspect was deliberately tailored to He Cong's preferences.
Shang Youqing retracted his gaze and replied to Madam He gently, "Madam, Young Master He has never told me about this matter, so I don't know which daughter of aristocratic family Young Master He will like."
Fang Xinyuan couldn't help but smile after hearing this. "Doctor Fu, you're being modest. Who knows Ah Cong better than Doctor Fu? How about this? When Ah Cong finishes his work and returns home, Doctor Fu can tell Ah Cong about this. After all, it's more appropriate for you to ask Ah Cong... than for me, his stepmother, to ask."
Shang Youqing politely declined, "I'm truly sorry, but I'm afraid this isn't within my responsibilities."
Madam He had no intention of forcing Shang Youqing. Seeing that she was truly unhappy, she patted her hand and soothed her, "Oh, it's okay, it's all right. Xinyuan and I were the ones who were abrupt. If Fuying doesn't want to, forget it. There's no rush. Let's talk about it after Acong comes back."
"Thank you, Madam He, for your understanding."
Shang Youqing endured his physical discomfort and sat with Old Madam He for a while before leaving the old house.
However, she did not turn back. She obtained the contact information of Ji Huaizhuo, the eldest son of the Ji family who was already able to take charge of the Ji family, from relevant personnel and proposed the idea of meeting him.
Her original intention was just to talk to Ji Huaizhuo and find out the relationship between the Ji family and He Qizhou, and at the same time help He Cong to reject this "marriage" that was about to be put on the table, so that He Cong would not make trouble with her when he came back and knew about it.
After Ji Huaizhuo learned of her identity, he quickly agreed to meet her and made an appointment to have dinner at "Tan Palace" that night.
Shang Youqing consciously felt that his body temperature was becoming more and more abnormal, but because He Cong's matter was also very important, he could only suppress it and endure it for the time being and go to Tan Palace to keep the appointment.
