Super Rich: Enjoying the Happiness of the Wealthy After Divorce
Chapter 83 Brother-in-law, I'm not a child anymore.
Tang Jianguo's single word "good" changed the atmosphere in the room.
Li Xiumei couldn't stop smiling. Holding Zhou Cheng's hand, she looked at him like he was her son-in-law, constantly talking about moving, as if she would be moving into that Chinese-style mansion the next second.
The atmosphere inside the room was so lively it felt almost unreal.
Tang Xinyi looked at the scene before her, her mind in turmoil. This man had completely changed her and her family's lives in just a few days. It made her feel safe, yet also as if he had everything firmly in his hands.
Finally, despite Li Xiumei's repeated attempts to persuade him to stay, Zhou Cheng got up to say goodbye.
"Uncle, Aunt, it's getting late, I'll head back now. There's no rush to move, I'll arrange a professional team, you don't need to worry about anything."
"Okay, okay, drive carefully on the way!" Li Xiumei saw him to the door, wishing she could go downstairs with him.
Tang Xinyi followed behind, and her mother nudged her with her elbow, gesturing for her to see them off.
In the hallway, the motion-activated lights turned on in response to the two people's footsteps.
Zhou Cheng walked ahead without saying a word. Tang Xinyi followed behind him, watching his broad back, her mind still in turmoil.
When Zhou Cheng reached the bottom of the stairs, he stopped and turned around.
In the darkness, his eyes shone brightly as he gazed at her.
"Let's go up."
"Mm." Tang Xinyi nodded, but didn't move.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Zhou Cheng suddenly reached out and naturally tidied her hair, which had been ruffled by the wind. The warmth of his fingertips touched her skin, causing Tang Xinyi's body to tremble slightly.
"Don't suffer injustice anymore in the future." His voice was low, as if stating a fact.
Tang Xinyi's heart skipped a beat. She looked up and met his deep eyes.
She could feel his masculine scent, mixed with a faint smell of tobacco, enveloping her completely.
The blood in my body seemed to begin to heat up at that moment.
He slowly lowered his head and leaned closer.
Tang Xinyi held her breath nervously, closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
However, the expected kiss did not fall.
She only felt a warm lip gently pressed against her forehead.
They separated very quickly.
Get some rest.
After Zhou Cheng finished speaking, he turned around, opened the car door, and got into the black Cullinan.
The engine emitted a deep roar, and the car quickly drove away and disappeared from sight.
Tang Xinyi stood there alone, her hand unconsciously touching her forehead, where his warmth still seemed to linger.
This man...
She shook her head, feeling a mix of inexplicable emotions that made her both irritable and irresistibly sweet.
……
Moon Bay Manor.
Zhou Cheng parked the car in the garage and walked into the spacious mansion.
With Su Qingyao and the others not around, the entire manor was unusually quiet.
Just now, downstairs at Tang Xinyi's house, he did have that thought. The woman's submissiveness and shyness in his arms stirred a heat within him.
But he held back.
For a woman like Tang Xinyi, being too easy to obtain would only make her lose her unique charm. What he enjoyed was the process of gradually winning her over, inside and out.
Now, the timing is perfect.
He took off his coat, tossed it onto the sofa, and went into the master bedroom's bathroom.
The heat quickly filled the entire space.
He closed his eyes, letting the warm water wash over his body, but his mind was already planning what to do next.
The house in Mirror Lake needs to be transferred as soon as possible, and Tang Xinyi's parents need to be settled. He also needs to make an appearance at the TV station as the boss to support Tang Xinyi.
And that "devalued" school beauty named Liu Yiyi, it's time to deal with her too.
Just as he was thinking, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open a crack from the outside.
Zhou Cheng's eyes snapped open.
His hearing was far beyond that of ordinary people, and he didn't hear any footsteps at all.
A slender figure peeked in.
She was a very young girl, who looked to be around twenty years old. She had her hair tied in a high ponytail and was wearing an ill-fitting silk nightgown, which Qin Yue had left here as a spare.
The girl had a small face with delicate features, and her skin glowed white under the bathroom light. Her large eyes, filled with a mixture of curiosity and nervousness, were peeking inside.
When her gaze met Zhou Cheng's reflection in the mirror, she froze.
"what!"
The girl let out a short gasp and turned to run away.
"stop."
Zhou Cheng's voice wasn't loud, but it made the girl stop in her tracks instantly.
The girl froze on the spot, too afraid to move.
Zhou Cheng turned off the shower, casually grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around his waist, revealing his well-defined upper body. Water droplets slid down his muscular physique, exuding a powerful masculine aura.
He walked step by step toward the girl at the door.
The girl turned pale with fright, her hands gripping the collar of her robe tightly, her body trembling uncontrollably.
"Who are you?" Zhou Cheng walked up to her, and the imposing presence of his height made her unconsciously back away.
"I...I'm Qin Yue...I'm Qin Yue's cousin..." The girl's voice trembled with tears, her eyes already brimming with them. "I...I didn't mean to...I thought no one was here..."
Qin Yue?
Zhou Cheng remembered that Qin Yue had indeed mentioned that her ambitious cousin was coming to Jiangcheng.
He sized up the girl in front of him.
It's truly an exceptional piece.
Her face was innocent and pure, but her figure was already quite voluptuous; even the oversized nightgown couldn't hide her youthful curves. Especially her long, straight legs, which looked very white under the light.
Just then, a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding! High-potential target detected!]
[Target Person: Qin Yue]
[Appearance: 96 (Top-tier first love face)]
[Body: 94 (Exquisite comic book legs)]
[Special Attributes: Ambition 90, Innocence (Fake) 85]
[Potential Rating: S-level!]
Current state: fear, curiosity, longing
[Strategy Tip: This target possesses strong ambition and a thirst for wealth, but also harbors a sliver of unrealistic fantasies. Traditional monetary tactics have limited effectiveness; a combination of power and psychological control is needed to completely subdue her.]
S-rank!
Another S-class!
Zhou Cheng's lips twitched.
interesting.
Looking at the girl in front of him, who was so scared she was about to cry, but whose body was trembling slightly and whose eyes held a hint of excitement and anticipation, he suddenly felt that tonight was not so boring anymore.
"Didn't Qin Yue tell you that I can't just walk into my room?" Zhou Cheng's voice remained cold.
"She...she said..." Qin Yue's voice trailed off, her head almost buried in her chest, "I...I was just curious...I'm sorry...I'll leave right away!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and ran away.
Zhou Cheng grabbed her wrist.
The girl's wrists were so thin that they looked like they could be snapped in two with a little force.
Did I let you leave?
He pulled her back and pinned her against the cold wall.
"Ah!" Qin Yue exclaimed again as her back slammed against the wall, the pain bringing tears to her eyes.
She was forced to look up at Zhou Cheng, who was standing right in front of her.
This man is more intimidating than he appears in photos and videos.
His powerful aura made it hard for her to breathe.
"Now that you're in, you won't be leaving so easily." Zhou Cheng lowered his head, leaned close to her ear, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"How do you think I should 'punish' you?"
The warm breath sprayed onto Qin Yue's sensitive earlobe, giving her goosebumps all over her body.
Fear gripped her heart, but deep down, a strange excitement surged within her.
She knew her chance had come.
