The mansion Xu Cheng was living in was one of the mansions owned by Auntie Lan's real estate group. Mansion 66 was purposely kept for the company's real estate project, but now that Xu Cheng sold the condo, he had no choice but to move in.
The entire villa was very spacious and had its own garden, which was about five acres in size. The front yard was designed with a garden fountain, and the backyard had its own open-air swimming pool. This type of mansion was worth hundreds of millions in Shangcheng, and Luo Yi and Li Wei didn't want to move out after living here anyway.
After the two finished their tea, they went to the front yard and sat down comfortably on the chairs. "Big Brother Cheng, you should have told us earlier that you were doing so well. Why would we have gone to the Dragon Division to fight for our future? I would've come out to fight you a long time ago. "
"I didn't do much either. Didn't you see that the owner of this house isn't my name? I'm just living off my parents." Xu Cheng grinned.
"Brother Cheng, if there's anything you need, just tell us. We have hands and feet. Since we came out to hang out with you, you don't have to be polite." Li Wei went straight to the point.
Xu Cheng shook his head. "I really don't have much to do these days. You two should get some rest, and I will also give myself a break. I'm a bit tired right now, but let's talk about it later. I need to spend some time with my wife first."
"I don't understand. Why don't you disclose your relationship with sister-in-law? Is there something you can't say? "Luo Yi asked curiously.
Xu Cheng looked at the trees in the yard and chuckled. "I've offended a lot of people. Do you still remember the four clans?"
The two nodded.
Xu Cheng said, "They all have their own independent army. In the African mercenary region, the four clans have enough money and manpower to support these mercenary groups. These people are keeping an eye on me, but there's nothing they can use against me. If I reveal Chuxue's and my identity, they won't be able to do anything to me, but they can still do something to Chuxue. I don't want something irreversible to happen again. Most importantly, Chuxue is in China, so the mercenaries can't infiltrate into the country. However, it doesn't mean that they won't do anything to my father-in-law. Judging from the way I slaughtered the four clans, they would also dare to do something like this out of revenge. If that happens, how am I going to face Chuxue in the future? "
The two of them nodded in realization. According to this explanation, it was indeed somewhat involuntary.
This kind of thing wasn't something that could be faced just because both parties were willing to hold hands. It was a trap.
Xu Cheng sighed, stood up, and walked into the mansion.
Lin Chuxue was discharged from the hospital, but her wounds weren't completely healed yet. When Xu Cheng went in, he saw Auntie Lan applying medicine for her. He also saw the two bullet hole scars on Lin Chuxue's snow-white waist and abdomen. These kinds of scars couldn't heal quickly, and they might even leave scars in the future. For a woman who loved beauty more than her life, it was a scar that she couldn't face.
Lin Chuxue saw Xu Cheng suddenly standing at the door. She was afraid that he would see her scars, so she subconsciously covered them up with the blanket, and a hint of panic flashed past her face.
She was afraid of leaving a scar on her body and making Xu Cheng look at her differently. She was very proud of her looks and figure, and at the same time, she always felt that she was just a vase, a vase that Xu Cheng worked hard for his entire life. Now that there was a crack or flaw on the vase, she was afraid that it would be cheap.
For a perfectionist, this action of hers was understandable. She never wanted to show her ugly side to others, especially in front of the man she loved.
Xu Cheng's eyes were gentle and filled with heartache as he looked at her.
Auntie Lan and the maid saw Xu Cheng standing at the door, but they didn't say anything. They just packed up and left.
In the bedroom, only Lin Chuxue and Xu Cheng were left. Lin Chuxue held onto the bed sheet with both hands and showed him a forced but natural smile.
Xu Cheng slowly walked to her low bed and half-knelt down. Then, he reached out and was about to lift up the sheet to see her scars.
However, Lin Chuxue slightly pressed down on the blanket, not letting him lift it up.
"It's just a wound, it's not like you haven't seen it before." Lin Chuxue forced a smile and said to Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng still wanted to lift it up, but this time, Lin Chuxue gritted her teeth and looked at Xu Cheng with pleading eyes. "No."
"Can I take a good look?" Xu Cheng looked at her and gently said.
Lin Chuxue gritted her teeth and struggled a bit. However, Xu Cheng had already moved her hand away and lifted up the cup. Her slender and perfectly curved waist was exposed in front of Xu Cheng. To be honest, the lines were perfect, but under the bright light, the two scars seemed a bit out of place.
Lin Chuxue saw Xu Cheng staring at her scars, and she bitterly smiled and asked, "It's ugly, right? Because the bullet is of a large caliber, the doctor said that even if it's stitched up, it will still leave a scar, and it will be difficult to repair it with lasers in the future. "
Xu Cheng raised his head and looked into Lin Chuxue's eyes. Seeing her tears quietly fall, Xu Cheng walked over and wiped her tears away. He said, "It's not ugly. For me, its existence makes you more real, you know? For a soldier, the more bullet scars you have on your body, the more significant it is. Every bullet scar represents our unique charm. At this moment, I feel that you, Lin Chuxue, are even more breathtakingly beautiful. I see your tears, your panic, and a lot of your emotions make you more real. "
Lin Chuxue's eyes were red as she sobbed, "I know, I'm no longer that noble work of art. I've become mediocre, right?"
Xu Cheng hugged her head and pulled her into his arms as he sincerely said, "Lin Chuxue, listen, I'm the one who made you like this. No matter if this vase has a flaw or not, I still like it. Even if it's broken and becomes tattered, I still like it! In this world, the whole world can abandon you, abandon you, and not love you, but I can't. "
Lin Chuxue hugged Xu Cheng's waist tightly, and she suddenly said faintly, "Xu Cheng, I don't want to be a vase anymore!"
Xu Cheng's body trembled. He looked down at Lin Chuxue and asked with uncertainty, "What did you say?"
"After coming back from England, I thought it through. I don't want to be a vase anymore, it's very tiring. I want to be a woman who isn't a burden to you. A wife, a wife is a good wife, right? But what's the difference between me and Canary? I'm afraid that one day I will grow old and lose my beauty. I don't want to only have this face in my memories with you, do you understand? "Lin Chuxue said.
Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. "Chuxue, didn't we agree on this? I'll do the dirtiest, most tiring, and most painful work. "
Lin Chuxue mockingly smiled. "I looked in your suitcase, and the military uniform and military rank certificate that you treasured are all gone. I only saw a dismissal letter! Then can I still pretend that I don't know anything and continue to be my holy white dove? Xu Cheng, listen up, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and if you marry a dog, follow the dog! Even if you go to hell, I'm willing to follow you! "
