1 too 43 you are my wife
Xuan couldn't help but furrow her brow, Pei Jin Cheng suddenly used such a gentle tone in front of her, unless he wanted to get into bed with her.
Hmph!
He's now seriously injured, with broken leg bones, and still thinking about those things?
But looking at his eyes, they were warm and transparent, without a hint of desire. Had she misread the situation? If he didn't want to get close to her, then what did he want to do with that tone of voice? She felt goosebumps on her skin, "Huh?"
Pei Jin Cheng shouted out loud, but it was just the sound of air coming out of his throat, without any intention of saying anything, or perhaps he just wanted to shout out her name.
"After some thought, she said, 'Why don't I go back to G city and be a full-time wife?'"
"Why?" Shen Xuan suddenly opened her eyes wide, even if she went back to her hometown in Haicheng, she had never thought of playing all the time. She had been busy for more than three years and was suddenly asked to take a break, which would be very uncomfortable for her.
Having nothing to do makes her feel useless.
Bai Jincheng's mind kept echoing Lin Zhiyuan's words: it's hard for women to do business, especially beautiful women...
The company can afford it, many positions can hire people with high salaries, and must also get his wife involved, "My mother is also a full-time wife, look at the wives in the Pei family's mansion, which one is not at home? You can have a lot of your own time, such as traveling, shopping, isn't that good?"
Xu Xuan withdrew her hand from Pei Jin Cheng's, took a small step back, and stared at him with an unfriendly gaze. She didn't want to be like the women in the Pei residence who didn't like her, spoke coldly and sarcastically, and weren't liked by even her father-in-law and mother-in-law. She didn't want to stay cooped up in the mansion every day.
"No good! If you think I'm in the way at your company, I can start my own company and work for myself."
The man looked at the woman with a phoenix eye, seeing the vigilance in her eyes, she actually separated you and me so clearly. "Then let's continue working, back to the headquarters."
"Does the game company no longer want me?"
"Go manage the company with your ex-fiancé? Do you think it's suitable?"
"That's a different story from work."
"Do you want to work over there?"
"As a person, one must have a beginning and an end. I just passed by a little achievement without doing anything, it's not very good." Shen Xuan was used to being strong, at that time she was forced to take it lying down, being suppressed everywhere, she gritted her teeth and changed careers, just not wanting to lose.
There are some things in her bones that are actually very weak, but she has been stimulated to bring them out step by step in these adverse circumstances.
She had never discovered that she had so much potential, as her brother said, and had never thought that she would manage a company. But she did, and didn't drag down Jincheng Holdings. Although it wasn't as lucrative as real estate, it was still the fastest and most stable rising star among companies that had changed industries.
She is very satisfied.
This satisfaction further ignited her fighting spirit and sense of career.
She told Han Qiyang that when doing things, one must have a beginning and an end.
She actually thinks everyone should be like this towards everything.
This is a sense of responsibility.
Whether she and Han Qiyang were once engaged or not is irrelevant.
Even if she and Pei Jin Cheng are divorced now and want to leave, with the work of Jin Cheng Holdings not done in her hands, she will still complete it seriously before leaving.
Pei Jin Cheng saw the water shine in Shen Xuan's eyes again. The water in her eyes was not lake water, but iron water, which would harden as soon as it cooled down.
She is a woman who doesn't know tenderness, a woman who doesn't understand romance. Xuan has captivated him.
It's just her style, she likes to ruin the atmosphere like this.
I still remember the scene when he went to work in the company after his physical recovery, Han Qiyang was exceptionally handsome, dressed in avant-garde fashion, belonging to the kind of flower-like beautiful man on TV that attracts young girls and women.
As soon as they see Shen Xuan, they affectionately call out "Little Xuanzi", put their arms around each other's shoulders, and completely disregard whether it's a public setting or not, or that it's already Shen Xuan's company. If other employees were to see this behavior, wouldn't it be somewhat inappropriate?
His thoughts, Han Qiyang's actions, tone and eyes were completely unguarded, that kind of intimacy was a bit dazzling.
He is not a conservative person. In today's society, having several friends of the opposite sex is a very normal thing. Young people should have their own circle of friends; otherwise, it would be abnormal.
But Han Qiyang's awkward identity is still there, Shen Xuan's ex-fiancé.
Shen Xuan had never proactively mentioned it in front of him.
Pei Jin Cheng gazed into Shen Xuan's eyes, his own pupils growing increasingly deep. The clear and profound yet ink-like pool of his eyes seemed to have no sand or stones, only a mysterious and secluded forest. He nodded slightly, his eyes narrowing in approval.
"Um, okay, since you're not willing to be a full-time wife, I won't hire another deputy general manager for the company either. After all, you're familiar with the company's operations and I trust you. It just so happens that next month I'll be focusing on the water park project, and I heard the government is going to build a landmark building in the city center, along with a large square, which will be the most concentrated shopping and entertainment center in G City. I want to take on this project, but you need to manage the game company as well as take care of the previous work of the parent company. I'm afraid I won't have much time to deal with these things, can you handle it?"
Xu Xuan nodded while looking dazed, suspecting that she might have entered menopause or something, with a slow reaction. In this case, would she still go to the headquarters for work? Just like before, only Han Qiyang would attend meetings at the headquarters?
Circling around and around, back to square one again.
But what Pei Jin Cheng said was flawless, she couldn't hear anything wrong with it, but she felt like she was being led by the nose, and although she had this feeling, she wanted to retreat, but didn't have a reason to do so.
What's going on here?
"What do you mean by this?" Pei Jin Cheng's eyes locked onto Shen Xuan, did she want to shirk responsibility? Insisting on going to the online gaming company?
If it's like that, don't blame him for wanting her to be a real full-time wife!
"Okay," said Shen Xuan, "Let's go back and hand it over again. Anyway, I haven't started working at the online game company yet, so it should just be a formality."
Pei Jin's heart slightly relaxed, and he raised his hand to pull Shen Xuan, but this action was beyond his strength. The wound on his abdomen hurt as he pressed it, causing him to frown in pain with a "tsk" sound.
As soon as the voice came out, the hand in mid-air was withdrawn. "Huh" a sound, his head tilted back and he lay back on the bed board. Shen Xuan saw this and took a step forward to hold his shoulder, lifting up the quilt to check, "Did you press on your wound? What are you struggling for? You're so stubborn!"
Pei Jin Cheng gave her a sideways glance, how dare she complain about him, who told her to stand so far away from him!
Pei Jin Cheng's discharge from the hospital was not formally notified to Bai Xue, and since she had never entered the Pei household as his wife, he didn't need to report everything to her.
Xun also thought that this line might be a bit more peaceful. At least Pei Jin Cheng's behavior of not notifying Bai Shan, to some extent, still saved her face.
Although Pei Jin Cheng did not inform Bai Shan, it does not mean that Bai Shan will not come uninvited.
When Bai Xue found out that Pei Jin Cheng was going to be discharged from the hospital, she was shocked and couldn't speak.
Xian Xuan and Xiao Ying were packing up in the room, and Xian Xuan was in a hurry to find a doctor to get her medical records.
Xiao Ying picked up the clothes that Pei Jin Cheng had dried.
Everything here has nothing to do with her, she can only accompany Pei Jin Cheng by his side. "Jin Cheng, it's so dangerous, you still can't get out of bed, what about the wound on your back? The plaster cast on your calf hasn't been removed yet, and from here to G City is so far."
Bai Shan was worried, "How can we raise it for a few more days? A week is necessary."
Xin pushed the door open and came in, holding the medical records that had been organized by the doctor, as well as all of the B-ultrasound and CT scans, along with a detailed explanation for the transfer to another hospital. She saw Bai Shan holding Pei Jin Cheng's hand.
Her eyes were dim and expressionless. "Miss Bai, the air quality here is not good. The surgery has basically been done, you don't have to worry. Later, there will be a stretcher that will take you directly into the elevator, out of the hospital, and then the bed will be lifted onto the car provided by the hospital to send you to the airport, and then sent to the private plane."
Xuan said, opening the bag and putting the medical records inside. "It's just equivalent to changing rooms for Jin Cheng. When we get back to G City, it will be more convenient for us to take care of him. The Pei family has a very experienced doctor, so Jin Cheng won't have to stay in the hospital and can receive private hospital care instead. So you don't need to worry about those unnecessary things. With technology being so advanced, Jin Cheng won't have to suffer."
Shen Xuan's words were clear and calm, so calm that they seemed almost emotionless. Pei Jin Cheng watched as Shen Xuan spoke with a rhythm like pearls falling onto a plate, and his heart felt a strange, fluttering sensation, somewhat calculating. Even if the facts were just as she said, but she was his wife, he hoped to hear another kind of expression from her mouth.
He stared at Shen Xuan, "Xiao San is also worried about chaos, why bother with her?"
Bai Xue had already been made somewhat speechless by Shen Xuan's words, and compared to Shen Xuan's calmness, she was a bit unable to keep up with the rhythm.
Facing Shen Xuan, Bai Shan felt powerless. Bai Liwei told her to be patient and not to confront Shen Xuan head-on. The Pei family was not like other families, the rights of the first wife were very great, and this had nothing to do with whether she was favored or not.
The private certificate in hand is the key to marrying a concubine into the family.
If the wife does not agree, taking a concubine will not go smoothly.
Ke Xuan's attitude towards her was a constant attack, seemingly calm and composed, but actually targeting her every move. Every time Ke Xuan finished speaking, she would put her in an extremely awkward position.
She couldn't refute it at all, making her feel very weak and small.
Fortunately, Pei Jin Cheng's words at this time alleviated her embarrassment.
Xun looked at Pei Jin Cheng and really couldn't imagine how ancient men became masters with so many wives, and how they handled these relationships.
Pei Jin Cheng couldn't bear to say a word to Bai Shan, what's wrong with him?
Xun's eyes had a hint of mockery, and Pei Jin Cheng slightly furrowed his brow to carefully investigate, was she mocking herself or him? He didn't say those things anymore, asking instead, "Have you packed everything?"
Xuan didn't want to get entangled anymore either, "We've got all the medical records and B-ultrasound results, let's go."
Bai Shan immediately stood up, "I'm not ready yet, I want to go with you."
Shen Xuan was about to go out and call the hospital to get a stretcher when Bai Xue said this, she turned around and gave her a sideways glance, "Miss Bai doesn't have a private plane?"
"...... Right." Bai Shan nodded slightly.
Xue Xuan asked with a faint smile, "Are you going to take off with us? Have you gone through the check-in procedures and arrived at the airport on time?"
Bai Xue was stunned, Shen Xuan was really formidable, every sentence was a refusal to her. If she retreated again, she would be nailed down by Shen Xuan. She came over to take care of Pei Jin Cheng, but Pei Jin Cheng never gave her the chance to do so. Now that she wanted to walk with Pei Jin Cheng together, she was still being blocked by Shen Xuan. A voice in her heart kept telling her, she couldn't go on like this, no!
Bai Shan's voice came out again, with a slightly firmer tone, "No, I had no idea you were leaving. I can let them take him back, have him sit on Jin Cheng's plane to go back. I can take care of him."
"But all of our identification information has already been reported to the airport, and Miss Bai's was not included. You know, although I can go through VIP security checks, we are not dignitaries after all, so we still need to follow the proper procedures."
"I'll go catch up right away."
Xu Xuan was wearing a casual outfit, her hair wasn't tied up, looking relaxed and carefree. But at this moment, she suddenly raised her chin, lifted her wrist, and turned it lightly, the platinum watch on her wrist turned towards her. As she looked at the time, she only lowered her eyelids, her chin still raised, even her shoulders were slightly straightened. The sudden emergence of a queen-like demeanor shocked Bai Shan's senses.
Shen Xuan's voice was icy and powerful, her eyes slanted upwards, exuding a queen-like aura, "Is it on time? The plane takes off in 50 minutes?"
Bai Shan didn't know that a woman wearing casual clothes and having an unprofessional hairstyle could also have such an aura, which seemed to emanate from her bones. She suddenly felt timid and didn't know how to respond.
Bai Shan looked at Pei Jin Cheng with a hint of pleading, but Pei Jin Cheng's eyes were still fixed on Shen Xuan. As he gazed at her, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a smile spread to the outer corners of his eyes. Feeling someone's gaze, he turned his head and saw Bai Shan. He said in a warm voice, "Xiao Shan, it's okay if we're late. We'll meet again in G City anyway. I have urgent matters to attend to when I return to G City. To be honest, I wanted to take off ten minutes earlier, but rushing over here would also take some time. You can't just leave the people you brought with you behind, right?"
Bai Shan bit her lip, and tears fell as she thought that she couldn't abandon the group of people she had brought with her, but he was willing to abandon her.
Pei Li stayed in D City, he and Mr. Shen needed to understand the situation a bit more. Moreover, the Shens said they would go to G City to see Pei Jin Cheng tomorrow, so he waited another day before leaving.
So it was Shen Xuan and Pei Jin Cheng who returned to G City.
The plane at the airport took off two hours after Pei Jinzhang and others left the hospital.
Xin had been worried that Pei Jin Cheng would find out she had deceived Bai Xuan and scold him, but he apparently fell asleep on the push bed as soon as he entered the airport, completely uninterested in asking about it.
Xuan let out a quiet sigh of relief, not blaming her for disliking Bai Shan. Although she didn't have the right to divorce, even if she was widowed, she wasn't qualified to remarry, but she could reduce one encounter with Bai Shan, and she absolutely couldn't let go of such an opportunity.
A person who is not afraid of death, what else would they be afraid of?
She can't get out of it, so she has to be on guard.
Pei Jin Cheng slept on the genuine leather bed on the plane, although it was not as big as at home, but compared to the hospital's push bed, it was indeed spacious and comfortable.
Xuan sat on the sofa reading a magazine, when she was called back by Pei Jin Cheng's voice, "Ah Xuan, come and keep me company for a while."
Xin Yu was somewhat dissatisfied with the rest bed on this plane, and neither of them were small in stature. "This bed is a bit cramped for two people to sleep."
"I'll give you some space." Pei Jin Cheng said, and he really did move over a bit. However, as soon as he exerted himself, he felt the wound on his abdomen being pulled.
At a frown, Shen Xuan immediately stood up and pressed down Pei Jin Cheng, "Hey, you really are, I was sleeping on my side."
Xun slept, smelling the faint scent of medicine on the man's body. Yesterday's surgery, the wound couldn't get wet, and the smell of disinfectant pierced her nostrils.
Lying on her side, she was even more restrained than usual when sleeping, and didn't dare to get too close to him. But the rest bed was not big, and it wouldn't work if they didn't get close.
He's been sleeping for a long time, from the moment he entered the airport, he slept all the way. The plane had just flown smoothly for five minutes when he woke up, that was enough.
She thought deeply about how she would explain to him that the plane was delayed for over an hour.
Someone gently brushed away the hair on her face, his fingertips and neatly trimmed fingernails grazed over her skin, bringing waves of numbness and itchiness. She raised her eyes to look at him, seeing that he was tilting his head, gazing at her with warm and soft eyes.
Her heart skipped a beat, her face turned red, also a sign of guilt, "Jin Cheng..."
"Mm." He responded faintly to her, his arm was just above her head, with his elbow propping up his left hand dangling in mid-air, occasionally touching her face and tapping on the tip of her nose.
"......Uh, the plane......has been flying for less than twenty minutes."
"Hmm." He responded like that again, with a faint murmur.
She didn't understand what he meant, she had always been straightforward and aboveboard in her dealings, no matter how big the thing was, if it was hers to bear, she would never hide or dodge, but this matter made her feel so guilty, she steeled herself, thinking that even if they were going to have a falling out when they arrived at G city, it was inevitable anyway.
Her face was as pale as jade, she grasped the hand that had stopped on her cheek, pinched it and said, "I told Bai Xue that the plane would take off fifty minutes later, but actually it's two hours later..."
Shen Xuan's voice was a little small, because of the high air pressure and the sound of the propeller, which made Shen Xuan's voice even more like a mosquito hum.
Pei Jin Cheng responded with a simple "Mm-hmm." He hadn't expected her to say it out loud.
"What did you say?" Shen Xuan's voice rose slightly as she couldn't help but ask.
"I know."
"Do you know? Do you know the plane is late?"
"Uh-huh, got it." With her personality, how could she possibly schedule a flight to take off fifty minutes ago and still not have left the house? She's not that laid-back.
"Then why... " Why didn't you stop?
Shen Xuan didn't wait for Pei Jin Cheng's anger, instead he smiled lightly and raised the corner of his lips. Although he was still a patient, his palm was warm and powerful, and he opened her hand with a reverse grip and re-gripped it again, pinching it in his palm. The ball of his thumb wasn't rough, and when it touched her skin, it felt very gentle, just like his voice, "You don't want to sit on the same plane as her, then you can just not sit. You said that to satisfy yourself and also gave her face, pretty good."
She suddenly opened her eyes, "Are you pretending to sleep?"
He smiled even more, "You are my wife, I must maintain your dignity after all..."
Her heart skipped a beat!
My vision is getting blurry...
This is over 5,000 words, there's still more today, I'll continue.
