27: Chapter 0027: Wife Checking In 27: Chapter 0027: Wife Checking In Looking at Ye Xunhuan in front of her with a calm face yet a slight smile, a woman’s innate sixth sense told Tang Yurou that Ye Xunhuan was definitely no ordinary man!
But, it seemed that this didn’t even require any sixth sense—could a man who made the awe-inspiring Brother Xiao treat him with utmost respect be just anyone?
“Am I not just your colleague?”
“No, what I was asking…”
“Is it that important?” Ye Xunhuan asked indifferently.
Is it that important?
Tang Yurou fell silent.
It didn’t seem that important, but she was curious—curious whether Ye Xunhuan knew Brother Xiao, curious how he could know the elusive, mysterious, and ruthlessly cunning Brother Xiao!
Whether man or woman, everyone is born with an insatiable curiosity.
The less you know about something, the more you want to know, and Tang Yurou was no exception.
Ye Xunhuan seemed to see right through the thoughts in Tang Yurou’s heart and slowly began to speak, “Brother Xiao and I are acquaintances, we have a good relationship, calling each other brothers, and Brother Xiao has seen me, which is why he’s so polite to me!”
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan mention his connection with Brother Xiao, Tang Yurou was slightly stunned.
He actually referred to the mysterious Brother Xiao as a brother!
you and Brother Xiao are brothers?”
“Why, is it surprising?”
Tang Yurou nodded honestly.
“Even the emperor has poor relatives, let alone Brother Xiao!” Ye Xunhuan said lightly, “You seem very interested in Brother Xiao?”
“Not really!” Tang Yurou shook her head, “It’s just that I often hear people mention him, and he’s very mysterious, so I was a bit surprised to know that you know him.”
“I really didn’t expect Brother Xiao to be so famous now that even you, the goody-goody girl, know about him.”
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan call her a goody-goody, Tang Yurou smiled slightly, “I’m not a fool.
Everyone is talking about him, so naturally I know a bit.”
“But really, I didn’t expect that you would know Brother Xiao,” Tang Yurou took a deep breath, “Since you know Brother Xiao, why don’t you let him get you a job?”
“With Brother Xiao’s status in Jiangzhong City now, he could easily get you a vice-president position in some company, and you wouldn’t even have to worry or exert much effort.
How good would that be!”
“That’s true, I’d like that too, but there’s nothing I can do.
Qiu Ruoxi, that old hag, insisted I go work at Huangtu Group,” Ye Xunhuan said somewhat helplessly, “Otherwise, I would ask Brother Xiao to casually find me a job, which would be much cooler than working at Huangtu Group.
Plus, he’d get me a secretary—with work the secretary does it, without work, well…”
By the end, Ye Xunhuan sighed heavily, “It’s all because of Qiu Ruoxi, that old hag, sending me off to some Huangtu Group…”
Regarding Ye Xunhuan calling Qiu Ruoxi an old hag, Tang Yurou had heard it so many times today she was no longer phased.
“But I still need to thank Qiu Ruoxi.
Otherwise, how could I have met such a gentle beauty like you?” Ye Xunhuan conversely grinned and chuckled.
If she had heard such frivolous words from anyone else, Tang Yurou would definitely have been angry.
Yet, for some reason, when these words came from Ye Xunhuan, not only did Tang Yurou not feel any anger, but she also seemed somewhat shy while feeling sweetly delighted inside, as if tasting honey, with her cheeks gradually blushing, exuding an indescribable charm and a temptation that could accelerate a man’s hormone secretion.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan’s heart throbbed.
It was no good, he was almost being conquered by this introverted and shy woman.
Perhaps sensing Ye Xunhuan’s unwavering gaze, Tang Yurou’s cheeks grew even more flushed, as beautiful and enticing as if she had been drinking.
what are you looking at?”
“Has anyone ever told you that when your face turns red, it’s very easy to mesmerize men?”
As soon as Ye Xunhuan said this, Tang Yurou’s cheeks slowly became even redder, completely red to her ears, as if squeezing them might drip water!
“You’re so annoying, I’m not talking to you anymore!”
As soon as she had spoken, the shy Tang Yurou ran ahead, just like a little girl in love.
Watching Tang Yurou’s graceful figure under the streetlights, Ye Xunhuan’s smile grew even thicker.
Spending the day with Tang Yurou was undoubtedly the happiest day since Ye Xunhuan got married, and it was all because of Tang Yurou.
With Tang Yurou, Ye Xunhuan felt no pressure, no displeasure, and as if his heart, long stained with blood and filth, was washed clean, purified like never before.
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan chased after Tang Yurou.
The incident in the hot and spicy soup shop did not affect their mood, and the two wandered the snack street a while longer, buying plenty of street food.
Meanwhile, Tang Yurou also attracted quite a few glances from men, which resulted in Ye Xunhuan receiving many envious and jealous stares.
However, Ye Xunhuan didn’t care about those stares at all.
Around nine o’clock, Tang Yurou suddenly proposed to go home, and Ye Xunhuan had no objections.
Although nine o’clock is when the nightlife just begins, the well-behaved Tang Yurou wouldn’t stay out, as she never wanted to make her parents worry.
Originally, Ye Xunhuan wanted to take Tang Yurou home, but she politely refused and took a taxi by herself.
Tang Yurou went home, but Ye Xunhuan didn’t want to go home.
He didn’t want to return to see Qiu Ruoxi’s face that could mesmerize any man in the world but was always showing disapproval.
Just as Ye Xunhuan didn’t know where to go, his cellphone suddenly rang.
Ye Xunhuan took out his phone from his pocket, and habitually glanced at the caller ID.
When he realized it was Qiu Ruoxi calling, he was stunned.
Fuck, the Iron Lady is calling me?
Damn, what’s going on, has the sun stopped rising from the east and set in the west from today onward, and started zigzagging from north instead?
Since getting married, Ye Xunhuan had never received a call from Qiu Ruoxi, and she had never inquired about him.
This was truly a first!
The next moment, Ye Xunhuan slowly answered the phone, “Hello, wife, what do you need from me?”
“Where are you right now?”
“Why, is something the matter?”
“Are you with Tang Yurou?”
“What, are you checking in on me?” Ye Xunhuan retorted.
“But you guessed right.
I am indeed with Tang Yurou.
We just had some hot and spicy soup, hot and spicy soup, you know?
If not, look it up on Baidu…”
