"Wife," Yan Beicheng interrupted her. His voice was gentle but firm.
The two of them had been married for a week, but they were not completely familiar with each other. They called each other husband and wife. Although the two of them had never said it before, they both felt that calling each other husband and wife was rather mushy.
Yan Beicheng suddenly called her that. Lin Chu was suddenly refreshed by his elegant voice, and her heart was beating extremely fast. It was as if she had returned to her youth, when she was still in school. Her fragile heart could not withstand any kind of love, and her heart was beating wildly.
"We've been together for so long. I'm your husband now. Whether it was when we were living together or now that we're married, you don't have to be so careful with me. I don't care if you let Zuo Qiu supervise me because you care about me. I'm sad that you have to be so careful with me. You're afraid of disturbing me. Husband and wife, they could say and do anything, couldn't they? Lin Chu, I'm the person closest to you. "
Yan Beicheng said the last sentence softly and slowly, but it immediately hit Lin Chu's heart. It was an indescribable sweetness and sourness. Even her eyes felt a warm pain.
"Actually, you've always been this careful. When I say that I'm working overtime, you won't call me. When I go to work, unless there's something very important, you won't easily look for me. If it wasn't for my bad stomach, you wouldn't have come to eat lunch with me. You're always careful not to disturb my work. But I'm really not afraid of you disturbing me. "
Lin Chu listened to Yan Beicheng's words. His voice was as gentle as a cup of warm water, slowly flowing on her skin. It was especially comfortable.
"I like that you can look for me at any time without any pressure. I like that you can be carefree and even willful. No matter how busy I am, as long as you miss me and worry about me, you have to call me. Other men always complain that their wives are too clingy and controlling too much, but I don't have such a chance.
"I like to receive your call when I'm in a meeting and leave a large group of people to go out. I like to receive your call when I'm tired from work and listen to your voice, even if it's just for a minute or two. I like to receive your call when I'm eating and socializing, telling me to drink less. That way, I could openly say to the client, "Sorry, it's my wife calling. She asked me to drink less and go home early." I want to hear your warm voice when I get drunk and want to sleep. I like to receive your call early in the morning, asking me if I've eaten breakfast. I like to hear you ask me if I've eaten soup after drinking. Then I can tell you obediently that I've done everything you told me to do. "
Lin Chu's eyes were getting more and more painful. The soreness and warmth inside were very strong.
Lin Chu closed his eyes and used his hand to press them down. As a result, tears came out. She hurriedly wiped it away. Although her nose was sore, she did not dare to sniff, afraid that Yan Beicheng would hear her.
"My dear wife, as long as you're looking for me, it's not a bother. I won't even feel annoyed." Yan Beicheng said softly.
A low and mellow voice floated over from the phone, and it was warm.
Lin Chu moved the phone away slightly before he dared to sniff. Then, he went to the kitchen and closed the door. Leaning against the fridge, he whispered, "I missed you. You've only been gone for two days, and I already miss you. "
Hearing her words, he wanted to fly back to B City immediately.
"I'll go back tomorrow, but I think it'll be midnight by then. Don't wait for me," Yan Beicheng said.
Lin Chu nodded. As for whether she wanted to wait for him or not, it was up to her.
Yan Beicheng understood her so well, so he could naturally tell that she was being perfunctory. There was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't control her. However, he was secretly quite happy that she was waiting for him. When he returned home, there would be light and she would welcome him.
After chatting with Lin Chu for a while, Zuo Qiu bit the bullet and reminded him. Yan Beicheng was about to hang up, but he didn't forget to remind her, "If there's anything, just look for me. Don't look for Zuo Qiu to be a spy. He doesn't do his job well at all. He's giving himself away everywhere. His sneaky ways are too ridiculous. "
Zuo Qiu was speechless.
President, I'm still here. At least wait until I'm far away. This is a huge blow to my confidence!
In the afternoon, Lin Chu was urged to leave early by the old director. She was afraid that Lin Chu would drive on the road too late.
She parked the car in the garage and went to the first floor to wait for the elevator.
When the elevator door opened, there was someone inside. Lin Chu moved aside and waited for the person inside to appear.
At first, she didn't notice who it was. After moving aside, she looked up and was stunned.
She didn't expect it to be Lu Zhenghang.
Beside Lu Zhenghang was a man wearing a black suit and a white shirt. He was carrying a briefcase. It was obvious that he was a real estate agent.
When Lu Zhenghang saw Lin Chu, the corner of his mouth turned up. He smiled and said, "Miss Lin, what a coincidence."
Lin Chu nodded coldly and greeted, "Mr. Lu."
Lu Zhenghang laughed. She didn't know what he was laughing about, but it was very strange.
Lin Chu didn't want to talk to him. She gave him a perfunctory greeting and was about to walk past him to enter the elevator.
However, Lu Zhenghang stopped her again. "Miss Lin, oh, no, maybe you'll be happier if I call you Mrs. Yan?"
"Mr. Lu, what exactly do you want?" Lin Chu asked coldly.
"It's nothing. I just want to call you Mrs. Yan as often as I can to make you happy," Lu Zhenghang said.
Lin Chu frowned when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face.
From the first time she saw Lu Zhenghang on Tuesday night, she could tell that he didn't have any good intentions. Even if Yan Beicheng didn't say it, she knew that she had to stay away from Lu Zhenghang. Plus, with the mess between Jiang Changdai and the Lu family, she always felt that Lu Zhenghang knew about Jiang Changdai and Lu Zhenting's relationship.
Lu Weining didn't know, but he did.
From the beginning, Lu Zhenghang had evil intentions. This was Lin Chu's intuition.
So Lin Chu told herself that she couldn't show any of her intentions in front of Lu Zhenghang.
"Yan Beicheng isn't with you?" Lu Zhenghang asked again, as if he hadn't said that sentence just now.
Lin Chu was very glad that Aunt Zhuang was staying at home with her.
"If Mr. Lu wants to talk to Beicheng, call his assistant to make an appointment," Lin Chu said coldly. "Help yourself."
After saying that, she entered the elevator.
Just as she was about to close the door, Lu Zhenghang blocked the elevator door with his hand. "What's the rush? I haven't finished speaking. Why is Miss Lin so hostile toward me? "
"I'm not familiar with Mr. Lu, so there's no hostility. Mr. Lu, please don't block my way home," Lin Chu said coldly.
"It's because of Yan Beicheng, right? That's why you don't like me. Because Madam Jiang treats me better than she treats him? Or is it because she and my father — "
Lin Chu didn't expect Lu Zhenghang to say something like this in front of outsiders.
He didn't care, but Lin Chu didn't want Yan Beicheng to lose face. This was a family scandal that even the Yan family didn't want to mention to the outside world. He, Lu Zhenghang, didn't have the right to publicize it like this!
"Mr. Lu!" Lin Chu interrupted him sternly. "What does this have to do with you? No one has the confidence to make everyone like him. You too. I've only met you twice, including today. To me, you're a stranger. What's there to talk about whether I like you or not? Just based on your frivolous words and actions, what makes you think that everyone should like you? Please let go of me! "
Lu Zhenghang chuckled. To Lin Chu, the sound was like fingernails scratching a glass blackboard. It was so sharp that it made his hair stand on end and made him feel very uncomfortable.
But what Lin Chu didn't expect was that he actually let go.
The elevator door slowly closed. Before it closed, Lin Chu seemed to hear a murmur, "Mrs. Yan, I don't know how many chances I'll have to call you Mrs. Yan in the future."
The voice was very sarcastic, but it wasn't clear, so Lin Chu wasn't sure if he heard wrong.
He just felt extremely uncomfortable.
So much so that when Lin Chu returned home, Aunt Zhuang opened the door to see him with a black face.
"Lin Chu, what's wrong? Did something happen at the orphanage? "Aunt Zhuang asked in surprise.
Lin Chu shook his head. "No, I just bumped into someone I don't really like."
Aunt Zhuang heard this and asked in surprise, "In our building? That shouldn't be! "
Usually, neighbors rarely saw each other and minded their own business. When they met, even if they didn't know each other, they would still greet each other with good manners. They really wouldn't easily hurt each other's relationship.
Aunt Zhuang's words reminded Lin Chu that he actually didn't ask why Lu Zhenghang was here.
Seeing that the young man beside Lu Zhenghang just now seemed to be a real estate agent, could it be that he planned to live here?
"Aunt Zhuang, have you heard of anyone in our building who wants to sell or rent out a house?" Lin Chu asked.
Aunt Zhuang clapped her hands. "Hey, now that you mention it, I remember. I was chatting with the confinement nanny on the seventh floor today. She said that the resident on the ninth floor above them wants to sell out a house. This Wednesday, someone came to see the house and decided on the spot to buy it. I heard that the contract was signed and the transfer was completed today. "
Lin Chu frowned when he heard this.
Aunt Zhuang was very smart. Seeing this, she asked, "Is the person you bumped into the new neighbor who's moving in?"
Lin Chu glanced at Aunt Zhuang. Aunt Zhuang still didn't know about the Lu family's mess. If Lu Zhenghang really planned to move in, Lin Chu wanted to avoid Aunt Zhuang being tricked.
Lin Chu reminded her, "That's him. He's a very annoying person and has a lot of hostility towards North City. So I don't know what he plans to do if he really wants to move in, but he definitely doesn't have any good intentions. "
Aunt Zhuang felt that she had been frightened. Poor her. Ever since she started working, she had never encountered such a situation of mutual deception. Later on, when she came to Yan Beicheng to become a sister-in-law, her days were even more comfortable.
Yan Beicheng didn't have high requirements and he always went on business trips. When Yan Beicheng wasn't around, Aunt Zhuang had nothing to do. When Yan Beicheng was at home, all she did was clean the house and cook for him. When she had a lot of free time, she would go out and chat with people.
