Chapter 476 The Future is Worrying
Chapter 476 The Future is Worrying
Yan Zuozuo cried for a while and then fell asleep. Chi Moqing carefully carried her back to the room. Under the warm light, his little wife's face looked exceptionally pure. He couldn't help but kiss her, a doting smile slowly curving his lips.
He lay down beside her, casually picking up the parenting book from the bedside table, but put it back after only a few pages, a pang of heartache gripping his gaze at his young wife's face. It was truly difficult for his once innocent wife to confront such darkness. If he could, he wished she would never see this ugliness of humanity, but in the end, he had failed to protect her.
His phone vibrated, so he covered her with the blanket, turned off the light, and left quietly.
The call was from Jian Ning, saying that Leng Yan wanted to see him. Chi Moqing glanced at the bedroom and said, "Give her the phone."
Not long after, a cold, beautiful voice came from the other end of the line, "I want to see you."
Chi Moqing lowered his eyes slightly: "We can talk on the phone, or tomorrow morning is fine too."
If Leng Yan wants to see him at this time, things are probably not that simple.
After a moment of cold silence, a sneer flashed across her stunningly beautiful face. "Of course you don't have to come. If I tell Kuriz about Dorjidawa's true identity, what are his chances of winning?"
Chi Moqing's expression suddenly hardened; she was surprised that such a cold and aloof person would do this.
"Chi Moqing, are you going to come see me now, or wait for me to tell Kuriz the news?"
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow: "If I don't want you to have any contact with Kuriz, do you think it's possible for you to do so?"
"Chi Moqing!" Leng Yan shouted, as if provoked, "Even if you don't care about my feelings, we've been through thick and thin together. Did you have to be so cruel?"
She's going crazy after being locked up here for a day and a night.
"Are you finished? If there's nothing else, let's leave it at that," Chi Moqing said coldly.
"...!!!" Leng Yan was startled, gritting her teeth in hatred. "Fine, if I don't see you by tomorrow morning, I have plenty of ways to contact Kuriz. When Dorje Dawa's deal with you is exposed, it won't be so easy for you to deal with the Zasha organization!"
Chi Moqing didn't speak and immediately hung up the call. About ten minutes later, he called Jian Ning, "Keep a close eye on Leng Yan!"
Dorje Dawa's identity cannot be exposed. Once exposed, he will be regarded as a traitor by the Zha Sha organization, which will be extremely disadvantageous to him. It will take them a lot of effort to wipe out the Zha Sha organization.
The important thing is that the Zasha organization and J are still in the process of testing each other. Without Dorje Dawa, the two are very likely to join forces, which will make it even more difficult to deal with J.
Thinking of this, Chi Moqing's eyes deepened.
Perhaps she had gone to bed too early, because when Yan Zuozuo woke up it was only one in the morning, and her husband wasn't beside her. She jolted awake—where was her husband?
Good heavens, could it be that Chi Moqing went out in the middle of the night to sort out some messy things for her?
Yan Zuozuo quickly got out of bed, without even putting on slippers, and hurriedly searched for Chi Moqing's figure.
The living room lights were off; the entire large villa was shrouded in darkness. Yan Zuozuo grew increasingly worried. Where had Chi Moqing gone?
Just as she was getting anxious, she suddenly saw a faint light coming from the study. Without thinking, she pushed the door open and went in.
Chi Moqing, who was looking at the computer, was startled and met his wife's flustered gaze. As if he understood what was funny, he got up, walked over to her, picked her up, and sat her down on the sofa. "Silly girl, why aren't you wearing shoes again?"
Feeling the familiar scent emanating from Chi Moqing, Yan Zuozuo finally breathed a sigh of relief, finding a comfortable position in his arms and half-closing her eyes, "I woke up hungry..."
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow and warmed her feet with his large hands. "You sit here, I'll go make you something to eat." He was about to get up when Yan Zuozuo grabbed his arm. "Wait, I'm not very hungry right now. How about we eat later?"
Chi Moqing was bewildered. One minute he was hungry, the next he wasn't. What did that mean?
Yan Zuozuo scratched her head, stood on the sofa and hugged his neck, "Honey, let's make it later, I'm not hungry anymore, it's all the baby's fault."
His wife's coquettish manner made Chi Moqing's heart itch; she was like a lazy kitten, so alluring that he wanted to devour her whole. He chuckled and sat down with her in his arms. "Okay, it's all my fault. We'll eat when we're hungry."
Yan Zuozuo chuckled and snuggled against him. "Honey, it's already one o'clock. Why aren't you asleep yet? Are you busy?"
Chi Moqing was about to deny it, but the words caught in her throat, so she nodded and said, "I have been quite busy lately."
Yan Zuozuo felt a surge of tension. It seemed that after experiencing so much, she was now extremely worried at the slightest sign of trouble.
Chi Moqing noticed her change and reached out to affectionately pinch her nose. "Don't worry, it's all business. It'll be finished in a little while." He smiled and said, "Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you later."
Nothing is more important than my wife.
Yan Zuozuo frowned. She wasn't that hungry; she had lied to avoid alerting Chi Moqing to her panic. However, she would be willing to eat with Chi Moqing.
She touched her lower tummy guiltily, thinking, "My darling, I've wronged you again."
"Honey, you usually make breakfast, how about I cook this time? I haven't cooked in ages, I'm itching to get back to it."
"No, you can't do it now..."
Yan Zuozuo covered his mouth: "I'm not even four months pregnant yet. In the countryside, I can still work in the fields. I'm not that precious. You go about your business and give me a chance to show off."
Chi Moqing frowned in disapproval, but Yan Zuozuo insisted, "Work well, and we'll eat together when I'm done."
Helpless, Chi Moqing could only compromise when he saw his little wife's eager look, "Okay, be careful."
Yan Zuozuo blinked: "What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat everything you want to eat."
Yan Zuozuo pouted, tilted her head and thought for a moment, "At this time, it's time to cook noodles. Tomato and egg noodles or tomato and beef noodles? Honey, what do you think?"
Chi Moqing carried her in a princess carry, first taking her back to her room to put on slippers, before saying, "Then let's have tomato and egg noodles, I'll help you make them."
"No!" Yan Zuozuo refused him righteously. "Go back and work obediently. If you don't listen, I'll get angry." With that, she pushed him into the study and closed the door behind her.
Chi Moqing could only helplessly return to his seat, raising an eyebrow as he stared at the incoming email. Leng Yan wanted to threaten him with the agreement between Dorje Dawa and him, but she needed to have a clean record herself. If this information reached the Zha Sha organization, he didn't know if she would even have a chance to survive.
If Leng Yan had cooperated a little, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths. Since she still doesn't know when to stop, this should hopefully give her a clearer understanding.
Since he had gone through so much trouble, he had to get some useful information out of Leng Yan, otherwise it would be a disservice to him for leaving his wife behind and staying up all night.
Yan Zuozuo placed two large bowls of tomato and egg noodles on the table, clearly loaded with ingredients. She smelled them and realized that her cooking skills hadn't deteriorated at all, so she praised them highly.
"Yo-ho! Dinner's ready! Yan family's secret tomato and egg noodles, delicious and fragrant, you'll regret it if you don't try it!" she shouted at the kitchen.
In the study, Chi Moqing found it amusing. Although he wasn't hungry at all, he had to eat everything his wife had painstakingly cooked, even if it meant stuffing himself.
Yan Zuozuo stared at the two empty bowls, feeling quite pleased with herself. It seemed her cooking skills had improved; her husband had finished his meal in no time, even drinking the soup—great job!
Of course, what she didn't know was that Chi Moqing was so full he felt like he needed to go to the toilet to vomit. However, to avoid upsetting his little wife, he still wore a smile, showing no sign of being overeating.
Yan Zuozuo patted her full belly, glanced at her handsome husband beside her, and thought, "Life is so wonderful." She curled up in Chi Moqing's arms, looked up at him, and said, "Husband, what if we get old, with white hair and failing eyesight? Will we still be this cozy and sweet? Hmm, maybe you'll think I'm ugly then, and I'll be so sad."
Chi Moqing looked at her amusedly and pinched her nose as punishment. "Your husband seems to be quite a bit older than you. You're making it sound like I'm an old monster who won't grow old."
"You'll still be a handsome man when you're old. The news says that an eighty-year-old man can marry an eighteen-year-old girl. Have you ever seen an eighty-year-old woman marry an eighteen-year-old young man? It's so unfair!" Yan Zuozuo said angrily, reaching out to pinch Chi Moqing's firm muscles. Tsk, maybe he'll still have such a good figure when he's old. Her future is worrying.
"So, my wife likes young, handsome men? Then I'll get plastic surgery to look like the young, handsome men you like, so you won't abandon me." Chi Moqing played along with her flirtatious banter.
Yan Zuozuo blinked, then suddenly had a question, "Honey, do you have any idols?"
Chi Moqing smiled and put his arm around his wife's waist, saying, "Yes, it's right here beside me."
Even knowing it was just sweet talk, Yan Zuozuo still felt a sweet warmth in her heart. How many wives can be their husbands' idols? She was one of them. She chuckled and said playfully, "But you're not my idol, honey."
Chi Moqing's expression changed, and he snorted as he interrogated her, "Who was that? Tell me now!"
"I won't tell you, I won't tell you." Yan Zuozuo said haughtily, but the next second Chi Moqing tickled her. She laughed, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, honey, I'll beg for mercy, alright?"
"Who? Speak up!" Hmph, if any other man dares to hold an important place in his little wife's heart, he'd better not find out who it is, or else... hmph hmph hmph!
“My idol…” Yan Zuozuo looked at him with a smile, reaching out to touch Chi Moqing’s handsome face. “He has sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a straight nose, sexy lips, and a great figure. He’s had a crush on me since I was little, and he’s always been there for me when I was most upset. Even though I can’t do anything for him, he’s never abandoned me and has always tolerated all my flaws.”
"He wasn't the first man I fell in love with, but he is the one I love most deeply. Even if the whole world rejects me, as long as he's by my side, I feel happy, and I'm the happiest woman in the world."
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears. Thinking of what Chi Moqing had done for her over the years, she realized how fortunate she was to have met him, who had given her a happy and warm home.
Chi Moqing pursed his lips and placed a kiss on her cheek. "Silly girl."
My heart is filled with emotion.
