Chapter 22: His Wife?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The little fellow saw that the auntie was blocking the way and didn’t open the door. So he wanted to push the door open and enter.

Wu Shu didn’t like children. When she saw this little guy rushing in like a tiger, wanting to enter without the permission of an adult, she didn’t hesitate and directly closed the door.

The moment the door closed, a loud “bang” was heard clearly. The little guy was caught off guard and his head hit the door directly. The pain made him cry uncontrollably.

Chi Yaoxi hurriedly walked forward and hugged the little guy in her arms. She coaxed him softly and blew gently on the little guy’s forehead. “Okay, baby, don’t cry, don’t cry. Daddy is on the phone. Call Daddy to handle it later. Mommy will accompany you to the yard to play for a while.”

The door was closed from the inside. The image of the young and beautiful woman just now made Chi Yaoxi think. This woman didn’t even know the little fellow. She was dressed like a big shot and was dressed gorgeously, attracting attention. One look and one could tell that she was very imposing. Could she be that generous sugar daddy who raised Li Qianming? Could it be that she also bought this villa?

There were some flowers and trees planted in the courtyard. Chi Yaoxi played with the little fellow in the courtyard for a while, patiently waiting for the man to end his call.

Li Qianming hung up the phone and turned around to see that the two of them were still in the courtyard. He asked curiously, “It’s been so long and you still haven’t gone in?”

Chi Yaoxi looked up and shrugged. Unconsciously, she said with some resentment, “It’s all because of you. Were you afraid that your sugar daddy would be unhappy, so you kept it a secret and didn’t dare to say that you were already a father?”

What kind of words were those? Li Qianming was speechless. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he didn’t comment. Seeing that the door wasn’t open yet, he directly reached out to knock on the door.

Wu Shu opened the door again and realized that it was really Li Qianming. Her face was filled with joy.

She looked him up and down. This man, whom she had been longing for, was even more handsome and more mature and stylish than before. His facial features were well-defined. He was tall and slender, and he looked so handsome in a dark blue custom-made suit that she could not take her eyes off him.

Wu Shu’s heart was already beating wildly. Her face was flushed red as she said with extreme gentleness, “Qianming, you came back so late. I’ve been waiting for you for half an afternoon.”

Li Qianming was astonished. Why was this woman here?

Although his family had tried their best to matchmake them, he had told them before that he had no interest in this woman at all. It turned out that the only reason they were related was because they had studied in the same school.

The man’s originally cold and aloof face was covered with frost. His gaze towards Wu Shu was filled with distance, and his tone became even colder. “How did you get in?”

Wu Shu understood Li Qianming’s personality. Since he was a student, he had always been cold and callous. Looking at his serious expression, she didn’t make a fuss. Instead, she smiled and replied, “You weren’t at home. When I knocked on the door, there was no maid to open it, so I called Auntie. She gave me the password.”

From the corner of her eye, she saw the little boy and the woman playing in the courtyard. She was surprised that they hadn’t left yet. She looked at Li Qianming meaningfully and said, “Your personality has really changed. You’ve become so patient, allowing everyone to play in your own courtyard.”

The man looked into the courtyard. The little boy and his mommy were happily playing a game of picking up stones. Their faces were filled with happiness, and waves of laughter could be heard from time to time.

Li Qianming replied lightly, “That’s my wife and child.”

Wu Shu was stunned. He must be joking. How was that possible? How could she not have any news about him getting married! She glanced at the woman and child who were still playing outside. They didn’t look like it. If she were the mistress of the house, why didn’t she just say so?

When Wu Shu thought about this, she regained her confidence. She moved her waist and took two steps forward. She smiled and grabbed Li Qianming’s wrist. She said with a slightly coquettish tone, “Come in first.”

Li Qianming’s face was gloomy. He raised his arm and quietly avoided Wu Shu’s intimate action.

Chi Yaoxi had been paying attention to the commotion over here. She wanted to see where this woman came from. Would Li Qianming take the initiative to express goodwill towards this woman who kept him?

The situation was somewhat unexpected and did not develop as Chi Yaoxi had expected.

She saw with her own eyes that that woman wanted to get close to Li Qianming, but Li Qianming shunned her. It seemed like the two of them didn’t have that kind of relationship and Li Qianming didn’t want to be bothered with that woman with heavy makeup.

Chi Yaoxi suddenly had a bold idea in her mind. She felt that as a wife in name, she should step out and help the man settle these women. Chi Yaoxi was also very disgusted with this kind of shameless woman who threw herself into his arms.

When the little fella saw the auntie opening the door and talking to his daddy with a smile, he could not help but frown. His face was filled with unhappiness. He hated that auntie.

Because Daddy was handsome, many women liked to surround him. Fortunately, Daddy did not like these pretentious women and kept a distance from them.

In the little fella’s heart, only his mommy was worthy of his daddy and he should let the two of them spend more time together as a family.

Seeing that his mommy was still watching in the yard, the little guy became anxious. He leaned over to Chi Yaoxi’s ear and said, “Mommy, hurry up and go over. You’re the one who married daddy. That auntie is a bad person. She even hit my head just now. Hurry up and chase her away.”

Chi Yaoxi could not grasp the man’s thoughts. After hesitating for a moment, under the little fellow’s urging again, she stood up and pretended to walk over calmly.

When she arrived in front of Li Qianming, Chi Yaoxi pretended to hug the man’s arm intimately. With a fierce face, she asked in a slightly overbearing manner, “Who is this person? Why didn’t you tell me that she was coming to our house!”

Li Qianming didn’t expect the woman to come forward and question him about this matter. Knowing that she was acting, he cooperatively turned to look at the woman and answered lightly, “We’re not close.”

This was completely out of Wu Shu’s expectations. She widened her eyes in shock and embarrassment. What did he mean by not close? They had been classmates for a few years, so how could they not be familiar with each other? The parents of both families knew each other, and they even almost got engaged. How could they not be familiar with each other?

However, Wu Shu knew that the previous generation had a good relationship, but that’s all. Although she had admired Li Qianming for a long time, she didn’t interact much with him. This man with a cold face wasn’t easy to get close to.

Wu Shu looked at Chi Yaoxi inquisitively. Li Qianming’s wife? The woman opposite her was just like that. She didn’t seem to have any outstanding qualities, so why was she able to stay by Li Qianming’s side? She had liked Li Qianming for many years and hadn’t made a move yet, so how could it be her turn to enjoy the fruits of her labor!

Wu Shu’s jealousy rose, and her fierce eyes secretly glanced at Chi Yaoxi.

What’s there to be proud of!

She would seduce Li Qianming sooner or later!
