Chapter 259 Conquering My Darling Wife (2)
Chi Moqing frowned slightly: "Wife, could you please get me a cup of hot water before you go crazy? I feel a little unwell."
Yan Zuo's jaw nearly dropped; her initial rage had turned into a wry smile. But then she noticed the unusual blush on Chi Moqing's face and panicked. She quickly told him to sit down, "I'll get you some water, please sit down."
All that anger and rage has vanished. How long has President Chi been standing in the rain? Could he have caught a fever?
She immediately rummaged through drawers and cabinets to find fever-reducing medicine and poured him some water. But then she thought, "That's not right. If he takes medicine without eating, it will definitely irritate his stomach, and he'll have a stomachache again."
She hurriedly went to the kitchen to serve him porridge: "Drink the porridge first, then take some medicine later, so you don't get a fever from getting caught in the rain."
Chi Moqing smiled weakly and began to eat the porridge in big mouthfuls. She finished a bowl quickly, wiped her mouth and said, "It's so delicious. I haven't had such a good meal in a long time."
Yan Zuozuo rolled her eyes. "It's just a bowl of porridge."
"But my wife's cooking is really delicious," Chi Moqing said with a smile, then suddenly swayed and almost fell over.
Yan Zuozuo exclaimed in surprise and quickly went to help him up. "Are you alright?" Seeing him like this, her heart tightened. "Take your medicine quickly. I'll go and run a hot bath for you. You can take a hot bath later."
"Okay, thank you, wife." Chi Moqing was getting weaker, which worried Yan Zuozuo. She went to run him some water, but after taking only a few steps, she suddenly asked, "Did you read the letter I left?"
Chi Moqing nodded: "I've seen it."
"Then why did you come looking for me? You should know that I'm no longer pure..."
"Wife!" Chi Moqing suddenly roared, stood up, and walked steadily to her. "You are not unclean. You are my wife, and in my heart you will always be the kindest and purest. I know you haven't done anything wrong. Even if something did happen, it's not your fault and it won't affect my feelings for you."
Yan Zuozuo was stunned, and suddenly her eyes reddened. With her back to Chi Moqing, tears rolled down her cheeks. "Why do you have to be so fixated on me? There are plenty of good women out there. I'm just an insignificant person."
"Who said that? In my heart, my wife is the best, no one can compare to her." Chi Moqing said firmly, hugging Yan Zuozuo from behind and resting his chin on her shoulder.
Yan Zuozuo stiffened, trying to struggle, but was restrained by Chi Moqing. She bit her lip, "Husband, I'm just a woman with no relatives or friends, who doesn't even know how to socialize. What do you think is good about me? I'm not a good wife at home, I can't help you when we go out, and I don't even know how to please your relatives..."
"What I want is you as a person!" Chi Moqing turned her body around, his deep and wise eyes looking directly at Yan Zuozuo. "I married you to love you and make you happy, not for profit, and certainly not to make you please those useless relatives. Wife, listen to me carefully, no matter what you say, I will never let go of you in this lifetime!"
Meeting Chi Moqing's resolute gaze, Yan Zuozuo felt a surge of emotion. But after the initial感动 (moved feeling), she quickly calmed down. She shook her head, realizing how powerless and helpless she felt after this incident. Although both Chi Moqing and his mother loved her, when it came to anything, she was always at a disadvantage.
If she were to go back like this, she would still be at the mercy of others, so she might as well be alone and carefree. Without Chi Moqing by her side, she would feel heartache and miss him, but compared to going back and facing so many troubles, she would rather be alone.
"I'm sorry, I still can't go back with you. I've thought a lot these past few days, and maybe I'm better off alone." Yan Zuozuo shook her head, refusing to be tempted by him.
Chi Moqing saw the deep sorrow in her eyes, and his heart clenched. "Wife, if you don't agree to come back with me, I'll..."
Yan Zuozuo looked at him: "So what?"
Chi Moqing pursed his thin lips, clenched his fist, and said, "I'll go stand in the rain right now. I'll stand in the rain until you agree. You might as well let me die of a fever."
Yan Zuozuo's eyes widened. Was President Chi going to fight her to the death?
"Even if you leave now, I won't agree." With that, Yan Zuozuo walked towards the bathroom.
"Okay, I'll go out now, wife. I've already written my will. After I die, all my property will be yours. Don't worry, you'll be well-off for the rest of your life. Go find a good man to marry." With that, Chi Moqing walked out.
Yan Zuozuo was completely dumbfounded. Could President Chi be serious?
"Hey!" she called out to him, quickly running over and grabbing his arm. "Stop fooling around, what if you really get sick?"
"That's better than dying of heartbreak. I've been lovesick these past few days without my wife by my side," Chi Moqing said with endless sorrow, opening the door to leave.
A cool breeze blew in from outside, and Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but shiver. Seeing that Chi Moqing had really walked out, her heart tightened, and she quickly grabbed his arm. "Chi Moqing, that's enough!" She pulled him back, slammed the door shut, and said angrily, "What exactly do you want?"
"Honey, I just want you to calm down. I'll do anything for you if you forgive me. Or I'll bark like a dog, woof woof woof..."
Yan Zuozuo was completely stunned. Was this still the President Chi she knew? How could he be so shameless?
“Wife, smile. Is my imitation not good enough? Then I’ll imitate a cat, meow... meow…” As he spoke, Chi Moqing actually started to act like a cat, which made Yan Zuozuo both amused and helpless.
"Wife, you still prefer me to imitate a pig, I..."
Yan Zuozuo closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "Alright!"
Chi Moqing looked at her hopefully and asked timidly, "Wife, what's ready?"
"Go take your medicine, I'll go upstairs and run you some hot water." With that, Yan Zuozuo went to the bathroom to run the hot water. When she turned around, she saw Chi Moqing following closely behind her with the medicine. She rolled her eyes helplessly, "It's raining heavily outside, I can't run away, don't worry."
Chi Moqing opened his mouth, then nodded and said, "Okay."
Yan Zuozuo sighed and went to the bedroom to get him a loose nightgown. "I don't have any men's clothes here, only this one. Try it on later and see if you can wear it."
Chi Moqing obediently took it, thinking to himself: Wife, didn't you steal one of my shirts?
Well, of course he can't say it now. Otherwise, if his wife asks him how he knew, he can't very well say that before she moved in, he had his assistant inspect the place, that all the furniture was brand new, and that he even installed a camera in the bathroom...
Ugh, that's so despicable!
Chi Moqing was enjoying a nice shower in the bathroom when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, a cold glint in his eyes, and wiped his hands to pick up the phone.
"President, I've taken care of everything you asked me to do. I'm just waiting for your word," the assistant said over the phone.
Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes: "What's going on with Su Kang?"
"President Su hasn't made a move, but judging from his attitude, even if he knows, he doesn't intend to get involved."
Chi Moqing sneered: "That would be best. If Su Kang dares to interfere, I wouldn't mind wiping him out too!"
If Sophie dares to lay a hand on his wife, then she must be prepared to bear the consequences!
"Let's do it!" He ended the call. Even before showing himself, he had already decided to deal with some trouble; he couldn't let his wife be in danger any longer. If it weren't for Young Master Ou's intention to personally handle Meng Xinyu, he wouldn't have let her go this time either!
Twenty minutes later, Chi Moqing came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel and saw Yan Zuozuo sitting in front of the computer as if watching a video. He walked over and said with a smile, "Wife, help me blow-dry my hair."
Yan Zuozuo almost had a nosebleed when she saw his sexy and voluptuous body. She quickly turned her head away, "I won't be like that for long, you can keep bragging."
Chi Moqing felt a pang of pain in his heart. He hugged her from behind and smelled her familiar scent again—warm, comforting. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense for a moment, finally settled down.
He laughed and said, "Wife, I mean what I say. Even if you decide to leave me, I will not let you go unless you step over my dead body!"
Yan Zuozuo's breath hitched. No, she couldn't be seduced by his sweet words, she couldn't indulge in his gentle embrace, she didn't want to go back to face those annoying problems.
She struggled, but Chi Moqing refused to let go, resting his chin on the top of her head, his voice gentle, "Wife, I'm serious. No matter what method you use to divorce me, I will never agree. My feelings for you are etched into my bones, and cannot be destroyed by a few words or a few provocative actions from others. You can let me go, but only if I die!"
Yan Zuozuo's heart trembled, and her struggles grew weaker and weaker.
Chi Moqing took a deep breath, squatted down beside her, and looked up at Yan Zuozuo. "Do you know how heartbroken I was when I saw the letter and divorce agreement you left behind? I felt like I was going to die, like my soul was being torn apart from my body, and I was bleeding profusely from the pain."
"That, that was only temporary..." Yan Zuozuo had to admit that she was shocked by what he said and her heart had softened, but she didn't want to admit it and was still struggling with herself.
"I never want to experience this feeling again, my wife. You are my life. Your leaving is like taking my life. Are you really going to be so cruel?" He held her hand tightly and looked at her quietly.
These warm and generous hands had given her so much comfort and warmth when she was helpless. She thought she would never have the chance to feel it again, but now she was wrapped up in them.
She lowered her eyes, unsure of what to say for a moment.
"Honey, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. Please give me another chance, okay? I swear, I will never let you suffer again. I will tell you everything, including why I got close to Tong Shili, okay? As long as you forgive me, I don't care about anything else."
Seeing Chi Moqing's earnest expression, Yan Zuozuo felt a tremor in her heart. She knew very well how much Chi Moqing loved her, and she also knew how much she loved him, but some things really couldn't be solved just by their love.
Her mother's favoritism, the complicated emotional entanglements, and Chi Moqing's distant attitude towards her made her feel like she was suffocating. Being with him made her feel increasingly inferior and insecure, and she was about to lose herself.
She asked herself: Is this really the life she wants?
