Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 372 Husband, do you want to?
Wulin International Villa District.

After receiving Chen Yan's message, Chen Guodong and He Juan eagerly awaited their arrival in the yard. The afterglow of the setting sun bathed the meticulously trimmed flowers and trees in a warm golden hue, also lengthening their expectant shadows.

Not long after, an elegant and imposing Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly came into view and came to a smooth stop in front of the villa.

As soon as the car came to a stop, the driver's door opened from the inside, and Chen Yan took a long stride and got out of the car first.

Before he could even get to the other side, He Juan had already run over and opened the passenger door herself.

Inside the car, Jiang Zhixin leaned forward slightly, preparing to get out, and immediately saw He Juan outside the car door, who was smiling warmly but also a little cautious.

She paused, a fleeting, complex expression crossing her face, but ultimately spoke softly, calling out, "Mom."

He Juan was overjoyed to hear the word "Mom," and a smile instantly bloomed on her face, even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were filled with joy.

Empress Dowager He turned around excitedly and glanced at her husband Chen Guodong standing behind her, her eyes conveying an obvious message.

Chen Guodong received his wife's gaze and felt relieved, a smile of satisfaction spreading across his face.

Since Jiang Zhixin is still willing to address him that way, it means that she still considers herself a daughter-in-law of the Chen family.

This is more important than anything else.

He quickly nodded to He Juan, then turned and strode into the house, instructing the nanny to prepare dinner as soon as possible, especially telling her to make several light and nutritious dishes that pregnant women could eat.

After making the arrangements, he immediately went out to move the few pieces of luggage in the trunk.

"Hey, good girl, slow down, slow down, be careful of your head." He Juan replied happily, carefully reaching out her hand to help Jiang Zhixin out of the car.

Jiang Zhixin felt a little embarrassed and gently stepped aside, saying, "Mom, it's okay, you don't need to help me. I can walk by myself."

"How can that be possible!"

He Juan stubbornly reached out and gently supported Jiang Zhixin's arm. "You're with two people now, so you have to be careful in everything you do. Even though the path in this yard is flat, you still have to be prepared for the worst. I feel more at ease when I'm supporting you."

Hearing He Juan say this, Jiang Zhixin stopped insisting, nodded slightly, and let He Juan carefully support her arm as they walked step by step into the villa.

Chen Yan stood in the courtyard and gave a bitter smile.

Ugh! Not a single person said a word to him from beginning to end!
They've truly forgotten their son now that they have a grandson!

…………

Dinner was exceptionally lavish, with the luxurious stone table almost overflowing with all sorts of dishes, but they were clearly divided into two categories: one was rich in color, aroma, and flavor, featuring lobster and abalone, which Chen Yan loved; the other was much lighter, cooked mainly by steaming, boiling, and stewing, with less oil and salt, but the ingredients were all extremely carefully selected, obviously prepared with care for the pregnant woman.

"Come on, Zhixin, try this steamed sea bass. I specially asked Auntie to choose the freshest one. It has no fishy smell at all and is full of protein." He Juan hardly touched the chopsticks in front of her, and was busy serving food to Jiang Zhixin the whole time.

In the blink of an eye, a small mountain of bone china had piled up in the small dish in front of Jiang Zhixin.

"Mom, that's enough, that's too much, I can't finish it all," Jiang Zhixin quickly whispered, her tone somewhat helpless.

"Eat more, eat more. You're eating for two now, so you need to keep up with your nutrition."

As He Juan spoke, she scooped up another bowl of chicken soup, carefully blew on it before placing it next to Jiang Zhixin. "This soup has been simmering since this afternoon, for several hours. We skimmed off all the oil, so it's not greasy at all and is extremely nourishing."

……

Halfway through the meal, Chen Guodong, who had been eating in silence, suddenly put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said, "I'm going out for a bit."

He Juan immediately looked up, her eyes sweeping over her like searchlights: "Where are you going? We haven't finished eating yet!"

Chen Guodong paused, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face, and he lowered his voice unconsciously: "Ahem... I'm going to the yard... for some fresh air."

As the saying goes, no one knows a husband better than his wife. He Juan immediately understood his intention and raised her eyebrows: "What are you doing? Sit down and eat! You better hold back your smoking habit! Can't you see Xinxin is here? She can't stand the smell of smoke now! You're not allowed to smoke at home anymore!"

"Good good."

Old Chen wasn't angry when his wife scolded him. He readily sat back down in his chair and promised, "I won't smoke anymore, I'm just saying. I won't smoke anymore."

To prove his resolve, he even got up, walked to the entrance, picked up the pack of cigarettes and lighter that had just been opened, and threw them directly into the corner trash can without hesitation.

After doing all this, he returned to his seat and said to himself, "This is a good opportunity to quit smoking."

He Juan rolled her eyes at him: "That's for the best."

"Then there is still a holiday?"

Chen Guodong patted his chest and guaranteed, "For my grandson, I'd be willing to go through fire and water, let alone quit smoking."

"Alright, alright, just eat yours," He Juan said irritably.

……

After dinner, Chen Yan took Jiang Zhixin to the master bedroom on the third floor to rest.

Jiang Zhixin paused for a moment after pushing open the door to the master bedroom.

Chen Yan turned his head in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Zhixin raised her slender white finger and pointed inside: "I live here, where do you live?"

Of course I'll live with you!

Chen Yan coughed awkwardly: "If you don't want to share a room with me, then I'll stay in the guest room across from yours."

Jiang Zhixin gave a soft "hmm," which was taken as her agreement to the plan.

Chen Yan wasn't in a hurry. Since you've already moved in, are you worried about not finding a chance to share a bed later?
Women's desires are actually no less than men's.

Who knows, you might be the one who can't resist when the time comes!
With these thoughts in mind, Chen Yan dragged Jiang Zhixin's two suitcases into the room, and then thoughtfully laid them flat on the floor, intending to help her hang up her clothes.

Jiang Zhixin hurriedly said, "Just put it there, I can clean it up myself."

"It's alright. You can just sit and rest."

As Chen Yan spoke, he opened his suitcase and hung the clothes inside one by one in the closet.

After hanging up all the clothes, pants, and skirts, he picked up a pile of colorful underwear: "Where should I put this?"

Jiang Zhixin blushed and bit her lip, saying, "Just put it in the drawer."

Chen Yan said "Oh," and with a grin helped her put away her underwear, then placed the suitcase in the corner.

"Then you should get some rest. I'm right across from you. Just call me if you need anything."

"Okay. I understand," Jiang Zhixin said softly, her head lowered.

"OK, good night."

After finishing his sentence, Chen Yan didn't press the matter further and left the master bedroom directly.

Anyway, there's plenty of time later, so there's no rush.

……

……

Saturday, December 5, 2015.

The villa was unusually lively that day.

Not only did Bai Wei come, but Jiang Zhixin's parents (Jiang Zhihui and Wu Lian) also rushed over from Shanghai as soon as they learned that their daughter was pregnant.

"Xinxin!"

As soon as Wu Lian entered the room, her eyes were fixed on her daughter. She quickly stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Zhixin's hand, and looked her up and down carefully. Her tone was a mix of heartache and reproach, "You really are something. You only told us you were three months pregnant? If Xiao Chen hadn't called, were you planning to keep it a secret from us forever?"

Jiang Zhixin thought to herself: If I had told you earlier, Chen Yan would have known immediately.

However, she spoke softly, with a hint of coquetry, "Mom, I don't want you to worry."

Wu Lian sighed, and before she could say anything more, Jiang Zhihui, who had been standing to the side with a sullen face, spoke up.

He hadn't given Chen Yan a friendly look since he entered the door; only when his gaze turned to his daughter did he show a rare hint of gentleness.
“Xinxin, if anyone bullies you here, you can always go home. Your mom and dad may not be as rich or powerful as some people, but we can still support you for life and make sure you have enough to eat and wear.”

After saying that, he gave Chen Yan a meaningful look.

It's clearly a mockery of Chen Yan's infidelity.

These words were like a stone thrown into calm water, instantly making the atmosphere in the living room even more awkward.

He Juan and Chen Guodong's smiles froze on their faces.

Bai Wei, on the other hand, was eager for chaos to unfold. She couldn't wait for someone to slap the scumbag Chen and vent Jiang Zhixin's anger.

He Juan naturally understood Jiang Zhihui's implied meaning, and without saying a word, she slapped Chen Yan hard on the back of the head:

"Don't worry, my dear in-law, I will keep a close eye on this brat. If he dares to bully Xinxin again, I will not let him off the hook."

Chen Yan was slapped, but he didn't dare to make a sound. He sat obediently on the sofa like a child who had done something wrong.

Seeing his mother-in-law's resolute attitude, Jiang Zhihui's expression softened slightly.

He knew all too well that a man of Chen Yan's stature faced countless temptations, and some things were difficult to completely avoid. But the fact that this happened to his own daughter made him feel uneasy. Fortunately, his in-laws' attitude was quite proper.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, Wu Lian quickly stepped in to smooth things over. She smiled, patted her stomach, and said in a relaxed tone:

"Oh dear, I've been driving for over three hours, so focused on getting there that my stomach has been rumbling for ages. Mother-in-law, is dinner ready yet?"

He Juan immediately stood up, her face beaming with a warm smile again: "It's all set, everything's ready! We've been waiting for you!"

As she spoke, she went into the kitchen and instructed the two nannies to bring the dishes up.

At this moment, Chen Yan quickly stood up and pulled out chairs for Jiang Zhihui and Wu Lian, his attitude impeccably respectful.

Jiang Zhihui gave a barely audible snort, but still sat down.

Wu Lian smiled and nodded at Chen Yan. To be honest, she was quite satisfied with Chen Yan. He was young, handsome, and capable. If he were also more devoted to relationships, he would be even more perfect.

"Hopefully, he'll behave a little better after we have a child," Wu Lian thought to herself.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was fairly harmonious during the meal.

After the meal, the two families sat around the sofa in the living room chatting about everyday matters, mainly revolving around the baby.

The two sets of parents enthusiastically came up with seven or eight names for their three-month-old babies.

Chen Guodong said that if it is a boy, the name will be Chen Hansheng, which has both the masculine spirit of a man and the meaning of vigor and vitality.

However, the suggestion was met with unanimous opposition, as everyone felt it was too old-fashioned, like the names of people born in the 80s and 90s.

Our baby is a 15 baby, so we need to give him a trendy name.

Jiang Zhihui said that if it were a girl, she could be named Chen Jinhan, which is taken from the poem "Watching Fish Swimming in a Glass Bottle While Sitting in the Lord's Seat" which contains the line "The fish's scales move as soon as they move, and they know what is happening, just like the bright moon reflected in the water."

This time, no one objected; they said it could be used as a backup option.

……

When they were chatting until about 9 o'clock, Jiang Zhixin got a little sleepy and yawned.

Seeing this, Wu Lian said, "Alright, alright, the baby still has 7 months before we can meet him. I think Xin Xin is sleepy too, so let's stop here for today."

Since tomorrow is Sunday, Bai Wei and Jiang Zhihui don't have to work, so they decided to spend the night here.

Anyway, there are still several empty rooms in the villa, so there are more than enough rooms for everyone to stay.

……

It's Monday again in a blink of an eye.

Jiang Zhihui and Wu Lian went back home early last night because their home is in Shanghai.

Bai Wei didn't mind living nearby. She got up in Jiang Zhixin's bed in the morning, ate a nutritious breakfast made by the nanny downstairs, and then drove her BMW Mini to work.

That day, Chen Yan also got up very early.

Entering Jiang Zhixin's room, he found her still asleep, so he gently kissed her forehead and left a note on the bedside table: "Baby, I'm going to Shenzhen to discuss a collaboration with Tencent. I might be back in a few days. Call me if you miss me!"

.........

After breakfast, Chen Yan walked out of the villa gate. The morning sunlight filtered through the tall trees, casting dappled shadows.

Gao Yang was already waiting beside the Rolls-Royce Phantom. When he saw Chen Yan come out, he immediately stepped forward and respectfully opened the rear door.

"Good morning, boss." Gao Yang's voice was calm and capable.

"Good morning, let's go to the airport." Chen Yan nodded slightly and bent down to get into the car.

Gao Yang gently closed the car door, quickly returned to the driver's seat, and the Rolls-Royce Phantom emitted a deep and powerful roar as it smoothly drove away from the Wulin International Villa District and merged into the morning rush hour traffic in Hangzhou.

Two hours later, the plane landed on time at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport.

As Chen Yan and Gao Yang walked out of the terminal with the flow of people, they immediately spotted the driver holding a sign that read "Tencent Group LOGO".

After confirming their identities, the other party led them to a black Toyota Alphard parked to the side.

The vehicle weaved through Shenzhen's modern urban jungle before finally coming to a smooth stop in front of the towering Tencent Building.

The building's glass curtain wall gleamed in the sunlight, showcasing the strength and presence of this internet giant.

Accompanied by Gao Yang and an assistant sent by Tencent, Chen Yan took the elevator directly to the 21st floor—the floor where Tencent's strategic investment department is located.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Chen Yan's old acquaintance—Xu Yang, the SVP (Senior Vice President) of Tencent's Strategic Investment Department—was already waiting at the door with several subordinates, all smiles.

Xu Yang was dressed in a well-fitting business casual outfit today, looking energetic with sharp and enthusiastic eyes.

"Brother Chen! You've finally arrived! Come, come, let's go in and catch up." Xu Yang took the initiative to step forward and warmly extended his hand.

Chen Yan smiled and shook hands firmly with Xu Yang: "Mr. Xu, you're too kind. It's too kind of you to come and greet me personally."

"Oh, don't mention it! You're an important partner of ours, and a distinguished guest at that!"

Xu Yang chuckled and patted Chen Yan's arm, his tone familiar, "Speaking of which, brother, this is the third time we've dealt with each other. Even if you hadn't come to Shenzhen this time, I was just thinking of making a trip to Hangzhou soon to pay you a visit. That 'Magic Voice' app you created is really making waves!"

After exchanging pleasantries, the two entered the conference room under Xu Yang's guidance.

After everyone was seated and tea was served, the conversation quickly got down to business.

Chen Yan, relaxed but clear in tone, said, "Mr. Xu, I'll be frank. Moyin's development needs more funding to accelerate, especially in technology research and development, content ecosystem construction, and market promotion. I'm here today hoping to bring in Tencent as a strategic investor. I'm willing to give up 8% of Moyin's shares, corresponding to a funding requirement of 10 billion RMB."

Xu Yang listened, tapping his finger lightly on the table, without immediately expressing his opinion.

His assistant behind him quickly handed him some preliminary data materials.

Chen Yan continued, speaking with confidence and composure: "In the current short video field, Kuaijiao app is indeed the leader, with over 100 million registered users, nearly 10 million daily active users, and a valuation of 17 billion US dollars."

"In comparison, Moyin has only been online for a month, and its daily active users of 300,000 seem quite different. But Mr. Xu, you should know better than me that the internet industry values ​​growth potential and speed. Moyin has reached this starting point in just one month, and our algorithm recommendation mechanism and user stickiness data are quite good. 1 billion yuan for 8% of the shares is a reasonable valuation based on Moyin's huge future growth potential. In fact, for Tencent, it is an opportunity to enter a leading high-growth track early on."

After listening, Xu Yang pondered for a moment, maintaining his professional smile: "Brother, I absolutely acknowledge your abilities and vision. We've been paying close attention to the Magic Sound product internally, and it certainly has its unique features. 10 billion yuan for 8% of the shares... This isn't something I can decide on my own right now. It needs to be discussed in a meeting and go through the proper procedures. After all, as you know, the group has a strict evaluation system for its investments."

“I understand.” Chen Yan nodded. “I trust Penguin’s vision and decision-making efficiency.”

"Haha, great! Then please make the effort to rest and have some fun in Shenzhen for the next few days. All expenses are on me. I'll expedite the process."

Xu Yang laughed heartily and arranged for his subordinates to book a nearby five-star hotel and itinerary for Chen Yan and Gao Yang.

Over the next two days, Chen Yan and Gao Yang strolled around Shenzhen, experiencing the vibrancy of this innovative city.

Chen Yan was not worried about the outcome of the negotiations. He had a clear understanding of the value of Moyin and an accurate grasp of Penguin's strategic needs.

Based on historical trends, Tencent is expected to invest $10 billion in Kuaijiao next year, valuing the company at $250 billion. This demonstrates the importance Tencent places on the short video sector, and now that Tencent is offering them a short video platform with immense growth potential, it's impossible for them not to be tempted.

Sure enough, just two days later, while Chen Yan was on the phone with Ruan Yusang in his hotel suite, his phone rang. The caller ID showed it was Xu Yang.

As soon as the call connected, Xu Yang's cheerful voice came through: "Brother, did I disturb you? Great news! The board of directors has approved the investment resolution. 10 billion yuan for 8% of the shares! Congratulations! From now on, we'll be even closer partners!"

Chen Yan wasn't particularly surprised and calmly said, "President Xu, it's a pleasure to cooperate. I believe this will be a win-win situation."

"It has to be a win-win situation! My team will work with you to finalize the details and agreements as soon as possible. I look forward to Magic Voice soaring to new heights with the support of Tencent's ecosystem!"

"Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Xu. My assistant, Gao Yang, will fully cooperate with the follow-up matters."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the bustling cityscape of Shenzhen.

With funding secured, Moyin's development will enter a fast track, and a shockwave that will reshape the short video industry is poised to erupt.

……

……

The following day, in Hangzhou.

The morning tide of the Qiantang River has just receded, and the river breeze carrying the scent of earth sweeps across this internet capital.

Inside a modern building overlooking the river.

Ruan Yusang had just finished showering and came out of the bathroom.

She was wrapped in a large white bath towel, and water droplets still clung to her bare shoulders and collarbone, glistening with a moist sheen.

Her long, thick chestnut-brown curly hair was wet and cascading over her shoulders, the ends still dripping water, soaking a small patch of the back of her bath towel.

Barefoot, with her delicate white feet, she stepped onto the carpet and walked to the dressing table, carefully applying her makeup.

She has naturally good skin – fair, firm, and with almost no visible pores.

Therefore, you don't need to apply too much foundation. Just apply a simple base, then draw eyeliner, apply eyeshadow, wear colored contact lenses, and finally apply lipstick to complete a very natural makeup look.

After finishing her makeup, Ruan Bao carefully checked every detail in the mirror to ensure it was flawless before nodding in satisfaction.

She stood up and took off her bath towel.

Suddenly, a delicate, snow-white body with exquisite curves was exposed to the cool air.

She walked to the wardrobe, picked out a white lace camisole and skirt, put them on, and then went downstairs to the kitchen to make herself a simple breakfast.

After finishing breakfast and putting the dishes in the dishwasher, Ruan Bao returned to the walk-in closet that came with the master bedroom.

This walk-in closet is 10 square meters in size, which is equivalent to the area of ​​a small room.

The room was filled with all sorts of beautiful clothes she had bought while shopping, including coats, dresses, formal wear, and more.

Many of them were bought for her by Chen Yan; they were all new seasonal items from luxury brands, and the tags hadn't even been removed yet.

There were also several transparent glass cabinets and drawers next to it, which were filled with designer jewelry, sunglasses, hats and a row of expensive bags.

Ruan Yusang's eyes darted quickly through the dazzling array of colorful clothes, carefully selecting what to wear.

Her fingers traced the rows of clothes hangers, finally settling on a Chanel beige trench coat, the latest design of the season.

As for her inner layer, she simply chose a black, tight-fitting long-sleeved top.

Although this inner layer is simple, it is definitely a powerful weapon to attract men's attention when worn by a woman with a good figure.

Then she hesitated for a moment when she looked at her lower body.

Although her legs are long and straight, and her skin is fair, her bare legs look great.
But it's early winter now, and the temperature in Hangzhou has already dropped to the teens. Bare legs may look nice, but it's just too cold.

She pulled open the bottom drawer, inside which were neatly stacked stockings of various thicknesses and styles.

Ruan Bao chose a pair of thin, flesh-colored stockings and gently wrapped them around her legs, then put on a pair of white shorts.

After putting on the Chanel trench coat, Ruan Yusang twirled in front of the full-length mirror.

The girl in the mirror instantly shed her college student naiveté. Her skin was as white as snow, her red lips alluring. Against the backdrop of a high-end brand trench coat, she exuded confidence and radiance, appearing dazzling and captivating.

Ruan Bao took a selfie in front of the mirror, then hummed a cheerful tune as she went downstairs.

The shoe cabinet in the entryway on the first floor.

She looked at the neatly arranged row of high heels and finally chose a pair of black suede pointed-toe stiletto boots that stretched her leg lines to the extreme.

The boots reached the knee, revealing a glimpse of shapely, fleshy thighs.

The skin's luster shone alluringly through the thin stockings, ultimately settling into the camel-colored stiletto boots.

This mature, sophisticated style is extremely selective, requiring a certain level of physical attractiveness, temperament, appearance, and even height.

It wouldn't look good on an average girl; instead, it would give off a bad impression.

However, with her height of 173cm, excellent body proportions, outstanding looks, and unique temperament that blends girlishness and the charm of a young woman, Ruan Yusang perfectly pulled it off.

It's a perfect balance between girl and woman, exuding both confidence and gentleness.

She was already looking forward to the moment Chen Yan saw her, anticipating his warm embrace and the kiss that landed on her lips.

Take the elevator to the underground parking garage.

Ruan Yusang walked towards her usual parking space, her finger already pressing the unlock button on her key.

The vehicle unlocking process was announced with a beep.

Not far away, a sleek, low-slung, crimson Porsche 911 flashed its yellow turn signals, welcoming its owner.

At that moment, several neighbors who seemed to be preparing to leave were walking towards their respective vehicles.

Among them was a middle-aged couple who were both drawn to the eye-catching sports car and Ruan Yusang, who was dressed like a fashion magazine cover girl.

The middle-aged man's gaze lingered between Ruan Baoming's bright face, her tall figure, her expensive outfit, and the 911.

The wife beside him noticed her husband's reaction and pinched his waist hard without any hesitation:
"When I call you over at night, you're always either tired or sleepy! What? You're so enthusiastic when you see other girls, huh?!"

You have to hand in three assignments tonight!

…………

Ruan Yusang had no idea that this middle-aged man was going to be severely tortured tonight for glancing at her a few more times.

She had already gotten into the Porsche 911, inserted the key, and turned it to the left.

The six-cylinder engine emitted a deep roar, then stabilized, the tachometer needle dropping back down, like a tamed wild beast breathing quietly.

She shifted into Drive and gently pressed the accelerator. The Porsche 911 slowly pulled out of the parking space, its tires making a soft sound as they rolled over the epoxy flooring.

As you drive out of the underground parking garage, you are greeted by the bright but not scorching morning sun of Hangzhou.

The warm sunshine of early winter feels comforting and cozy on people.

Along the way, she kept the car window open, letting the breeze caress her cheeks, and her mood was as bright as the sky.

Half an hour later, the Porsche 911 stopped in a temporary parking space at the exit.

Ruan Bao checked the time; Chen Yan's plane, which flew from Shenzhen to Hangzhou, had already landed.

However, after getting off the plane, you still have to take a shuttle bus to the exit. Even if first class passengers can get off the plane first, it still takes more than ten minutes.

After waiting in the car for a while, Ruan Bao got out and walked to the exit for domestic flights, where a lot of people had already gathered to pick up passengers.

She found a relatively conspicuous but not too crowded spot to stand, and eagerly watched as passengers pushed their luggage carts out of the exit.

However, her appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people around her.

A high-quality beauty is always eye-catching, but fortunately, Ruan Bao was already used to such gazes. Her heart was now filled with Chen Yan, and she was only thinking about how to please her man, so she chose to ignore the gazes of others.

Time passed second by second, and each second seemed to drag on.

Ruan Bao would occasionally take out her phone to check the time, and then stand on tiptoe to peek inside.

Finally, under her longing gaze, a figure that was all too familiar walked out, hands in pockets, wearing a pair of flashy sunglasses.

Gao Yang, on the other hand, pushed two carry-on suitcases and followed behind Chen Yan.

"Honey! Over here!"

Ruan Bao's eyes lit up, and without caring about her image, she almost blurted out a shout. Then, like a happy little bird, she ran towards him in her boots.

The men who had been silently watching her were heartbroken when they heard the word "husband," and then looked at Chen Yan, who was dressed in casual clothes, with extremely jealous eyes.

"Damn, this guy's got a really good life!"

"With a wife like this, I could keep her in bed all day long!"

"Hey, see that guy in the suit following behind him? He's definitely his assistant. That guy looks like he's rich!"

"Damn it! Work hard to make money! I swear I'll marry a beautiful wife!"

……

Chen Yan looked up at the sound and saw Ruan Bao running towards him with a smile on his face. He stopped and opened his arms.

The next second, Ruan Bao threw herself into his arms, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, buried her face in his broad and warm chest, and breathed in the familiar scent of the man.

Chen Yan was forced back half a step by her lunge, but then caught her steadily and hugged her back tightly. One hand encircled her soft, boneless waist, while the other hand naturally stroked the back of her head, his fingertips running through her smooth hair.

"Honey, I miss you so much~" Ruan Bao snuggled in his arms.

"Okay, okay, let's go home first." Chen Yan hugged Ruan Bao and whispered in her ear.

Chen Yan turned to Gao Yang and gave him an instruction, then took Ruan Bao's little hand and walked towards the crimson 911.

The men who had been watching Ruan Yusang felt a mix of emotions when they saw the two get into a Porsche 911.

It's true what they say, the rich end up together, and the poor just have to watch!
…………

Inside the 911.

Chen Yan sat in the driver's seat, not in a hurry to start the car. Instead, he leisurely and appreciatively looked Ruan Yusang in the passenger seat up and down, from her carefully styled hair to her bright face, her apricot-colored trench coat, and her long, snow-white legs in stockings under her white shorts.

His gaze made no attempt to conceal his naked desire.

With a smile on his lips, Chen Yan praised, "You look even more beautiful than before. I haven't seen you for a few days."

Hearing her beloved's praise, Ruan Bao felt a sweet warmth in her heart and smiled, saying, "I'm glad my husband likes it."

After saying that, she unbuckled her seatbelt, leaned over from the passenger seat, cupped Chen Yan's face in her hands, and gave him a passionate kiss.

This kiss, filled with longing that had been suppressed for so long, seemed to make up for all the emptiness that had been left during their separation.

Chen Yan responded to her, naturally putting one arm around her waist while using the other to play rock climbing.

After a long while, until both of them were a little out of breath, Ruan Yusang finally stepped back, panting, and sat back in her seat.

Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were unfocused, her already ample breasts rose and fell slightly, and her carefully chosen lipstick was smudged.

She blushed and glanced at Chen Yan, then quickly took out a cushion compact and a small mirror from her bag, touched up her makeup briefly, and tidied up her hair and underwear that Chen Yan had ruffled.

The girl's lips were incredibly soft, leaving Chen Yan with a lingering aftertaste that made him want to explore them again.

However, considering that the time and place were not suitable, he temporarily suppressed the idea in his mind.

……

……

Chen Yan started the car, and the crimson Porsche 911 smoothly merged into the traffic on the airport expressway.

He held the steering wheel with one hand, while his other hand remained firmly in Ruan Yusang's hand, his fingertips gently caressing the smooth back of her hand.

"What do you want to eat?" he asked, turning his head to her.

Ruan Yusang tilted her head and thought for a moment, her eyes sparkling: "Hmm... I'm craving Japanese food. Something light, and I know a newly opened kaiseki restaurant with a very private atmosphere and great reviews."

"Okay, I'll do as you say. Send me the address for navigation."

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a quiet Japanese garden. White walls, green bamboo, wooden lattice sliding doors, and a dark black character "胧" (lóng) on ​​the door curtain gave it an understated yet Zen-like feel. A waitress in a kimono bowed and led them inside.

As Ruan Yusang described, the interior of the shop is extremely elegant and private, with winding corridors and the sound of flowing water and the faint scent of bamboo on both sides. They were led into a private room called "Maple", which was furnished with tatami mats, a sunken dining table in the middle, and a huge floor-to-ceiling window on one side, overlooking a meticulously maintained dry landscape garden.

The air conditioning in the private room was on full blast, making it warm and cozy, a stark contrast to the chilly early winter outside.

Ruan Yusang took off her boots, revealing her bare feet wrapped in flesh-colored silk stockings, and stepped onto the soft tatami mat.

She unbuckled the belt of her apricot-colored trench coat, took it off, and carefully hung it on a hanger nearby.

Suddenly, the black tight-fitting long-sleeved top that was worn underneath was fully revealed.

The high-neck design accentuated the graceful lines of her swan-like neck, while the highly elastic fabric perfectly outlined the curves of her upper body, especially the fullness of her chest, which almost seemed to burst out, exuding a breathtaking allure in the slightly dim lighting of the private room.

Chen Yan's gaze darkened, lingering on her for a moment before he calmly sat down at the head of the table.

A woman dressed in a kimono quietly entered, offering hot towels and welcoming tea and snacks, and then handed over the menu. Chen Yan glanced at it, ordered two kaiseki set meals, and also added a few well-regarded specialty dishes and a bottle of sake.

The woman bowed and withdrew, closing the sliding door of the private room, leaving only the two of them in the space. Only the faint sound of running water and barely audible background music could be heard.

The dishes were served one by one, each one as exquisite as a work of art. From appetizers and bowl dishes to stews and grilled dishes, every dish featured fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. Ruan Yusang ate with her eyes slightly narrowed, occasionally using her chopsticks to pick up a piece of sashimi or perfectly grilled Wagyu beef and feed it to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan enjoyed being fed, and occasionally brought the sake cup to her lips.

After a few cups of warm sake, Ruan Yusang's fair cheeks flushed a beautiful rosy hue, and her eyes became increasingly moist and dreamy. When she looked at Chen Yan, her eyes were filled with tender affection.

After the meal, the lady came in and quietly removed the cutlery, then served hot tea and Shizuoka melon as dessert, and thoughtfully closed the sliding door again.

As the ancients said, "When people are well-fed and warm, they think of lustful desires."

The private room was warm and cozy, so quiet that only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.

Ruan Yusang put down her teacup, a cunning and bold glint in her eyes.

She moved closer to Chen Yan, her soft body almost pressed against his arm, and tilted her face up, her breath sweet as orchids: "Honey, are you full?"

Chen Yan put down his wine glass, naturally wrapped his arm around her waist, pulled her closer to him, and lowered his head to smell the fragrance in her hair: "Hmm, it smells good."

Ruan Yusang's fingers gently traced his chest, moving downwards, her voice lower and more seductive: "Then...would you like to try it here?"

Chen Yan paused, looking down at the little woman in his arms, her eyes filled with spring water, boldly making an invitation.

The paper doors of the private rooms were not completely soundproof, and faint footsteps and the sound of flowing water could be heard in the courtyard. This semi-public and private environment undoubtedly intensified the sense of excitement.

At that moment, Ruan Yusang's hand also slipped down restlessly.

Chen Yan's breathing suddenly became heavier, and the arm around her waist tightened abruptly.

He looked down at the girl in his arms, her face as beautiful as a peach blossom, his Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice became low, husky, and dangerous: "...Are you sure? Here?"
