Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

"Let's not talk about that."

Ying Yuchuan didn't want her to keep bringing up her background, so he changed the subject.

"Wait for me a moment, I'm going somewhere with you in a bit..."

"President Ying, I'm here to make my grand entrance! Come and greet me!"

Before he could finish speaking, another voice suddenly burst in and interrupted him.

Zhou Yanjin, a spirited and dashing young man, strode into the office.

"Not for more than half a month..."

The word "see" stopped abruptly when he saw the deer trellis inside, and he raised an eyebrow.

"Are you discussing business?"

His gaze shifted to Ying Yuchuan's face, which was a shade darker than before. He exclaimed, "No, I'm telling you, President Ying, what were you doing all this time? You didn't answer my calls or reply to my messages, and all you did was send out that official announcement and keep me hanging, right?"

"Do you even consider me your friend anymore? It's been so long, and you won't even let me see my wife. That's so unfair!"

He said with some resentment.

That's how it is. He treated him like a good brother, he treated him like a passerby, he could even tell him how many times a night he could have sex with him, but he didn't even let him see his wife.

Oh.

No matter what, I've finally waited for him to come home, and today I'm determined to go home with him and see what his mysterious wife looks like.

Seeing him gave Ying Yuchuan a slight headache.

This Zhou Yanjin keeps coming to his office.

How exactly did he manage to pinpoint his exact availability?

"What are you doing here again? Didn't we agree to meet tonight?"

"I'm in a hurry, I can't wait until nightfall."

Because they couldn't wait, they rushed over as soon as they learned he had returned to Nancheng.

Ying Yuchuan sighed helplessly, "This is a friend I've known since junior high school. He's a bit eccentric, so don't mind him."

He said this to Luluzhi.

Zhou Yanjin couldn't stand hearing him talk about himself like that. He flicked his short, parted bangs, his handsome face beaming with smugness. "Where am I being neurotic? I, Young Master Zhou, am a heartbreaker, dashing and debonair."

Lu Luozhi pursed her lips and smiled secretly.

Who introduces themselves like that?

"Excuse me, little sister, could you please step outside for a moment? I have something to discuss with your CEO."

Zhou Yanjin gave her a wink.

Ying Yuchuan's face darkened, and he stood in front of Lu Luozhi, saying, "Stop being so horny here."

"besides……"

He said in a hard voice, "She's my wife, please call her sister-in-law."

Zhou Yanjin blinked, still unable to process what he had said.

What was he saying again?

Is she his wife?

She, this adorable girl, is he, Ying Yuchuan's wife?

That's the correct meaning, right?

wrong!

Realizing what was happening, Zhou Yanjin opened his jaw and pointed at Ying Yuchuan in astonishment, then at the girl who claimed to be his secretary, babbling incessantly.

"Did you have a stroke?"

Ying Yuchuan said in a cold voice.

I finally came to my senses.

Zhou Yanjin stared wide-eyed, yelling, "You said, you said she's your mysterious wife?"

"Hi, hello, yes, it's me."

Lu Luozhi peeked out from behind Ying Yuchuan and waved to him with a smile.

"Nice to meet you."

Ying Yuchuan scoffed, "I already told you you've seen yourself; you're just stupid."

Zhou Yanjin didn't care about the sarcasm from his friend; what he cared about was that he had eaten so many walnuts for nothing.

Does he really think he's a fool and want to play with him?

"You, you, you..."

He was trembling with anger. "Well done, Ying Yuchuan! You're just playing me like this, aren't you? You better pay me back for the walnuts!"

"What walnut money?"

Lu Luozhi asked him curiously.

Zhou Yanjin accused, "That bastard said I was stupid and told me to eat more walnuts..."

No, why did he have to tell her so honestly?

Ying Yuchuan crossed his arms. "You call me stupid and you still won't admit it? Fine, you've got it now, you can leave."

Should we let him go?

"I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving today, no matter what."

Zhou Yanjin was a spoiled young master with a temper. He came to the guest sofa, lay down, and stayed there, saying, "Unless you tell me how you two met."

Ying Yuchuan was speechless.

He simply grabbed his suit jacket. "If he won't leave, we will."

With that, he pulled Lu Luozhi away.

Seeing this, Zhou Yanjin quickly followed.

"Wherever you go, I want to go too."

A tagalong.

Inside the elevator.

"Zhou Yanjin, don't you have anything else to do? What business is it of yours if I go on a date with my wife?"

Ying Yuchuan was speechless.

"Did your girlfriend dump you?"

Zhou Yanjin stared at Lu Luozhi with curiosity. "Ying Yuchuan, I didn't expect you to like this type. You should have said so earlier. I know a few like her, and I could have introduced you to some..."

"Shut up."

Ying Yuchuan snapped at him, "Can't you speak properly?"

At this moment, Lu Luozhi, feeling playful, didn't let him off the hook either.

"Ying Yuchuan, so this is what you are like, this kind of man."

She pretended to wipe away tears, "So I wasn't your only one after all."

Ying Yuchuan watched her performance quietly, finding it somewhat amusing.

His deep gaze shifted to Zhou Yanjin. "Zhou Yanjin, are you trying to sabotage my happy marriage because you can't stand to see it?"

"Waaah..."

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Lu Luozhi, who was putting on a convincing act, covered her face and rushed out, shouting, "Ying Yuchuan, you're such a bad guy!"

Zhou Yanjin glanced at Ying Yuchuan in alarm, "I didn't mean it, I just spoke without thinking..."

Oh no, I've made that couple argue.

"Zhou Yanjin, can you just disappear from my sight?"

Ying Yuchuan stepped out of the elevator and snorted, "You never bring good news when you show up."

Zhou Yanjin followed behind him, then slapped her own mouth in annoyance at her meddling.

Why are you being so sarcastic?

To make up for his mistake, he decided to tell him some important news.

"You were too ruthless towards Li Wan. She can't survive in the capital now and is going crazy, wanting to settle scores with you."

"Be careful these next few days, she might do something crazy."

Ying Yuchuan's previously relaxed expression instantly darkened.

It's Li Wan again.

"understood."

Why is Li Wan like an unkillable cockroach?

"ah--"

Suddenly, a sharp scream came from Lu Luozhi.

This startled Ying Yuchuan, causing his expression to tighten and his heart to sink.

He strode off toward the direction where the deer trellis was.

They were in the company's underground parking garage, and Lu Luozhi was waiting for him about ten meters away in his reserved parking space.

A rumble of a car engine sounded, and Lu Luozhi's startled figure flashed before his eyes.

"Run!"

She called out to him.

Behind her, a black car was chasing after her.

The black car came on aggressively, clearly aimed at her.

This made Ying Yuchuan's heart tremble.

In that critical moment, Ying Yuchuan did not run as she told him to, but instead went straight to meet her.

He scooped her up and pulled her behind a square stone pillar.

Upon seeing this, the black car immediately changed direction and accelerated towards them again from the other side of the stone pillar.

There was a loud bang.

The front of the black car veered off course, and half of its front end crashed into a stone pillar, causing mud to fall and raising clouds of dust in the air.

In that perilous moment, Ying Yuchuan pulled Lu Luozhi aside in time.

The two rolled several meters on the ground before stopping...
