Chapter 198: Can I Change Husbands?
Slowly, she found it boring.
After playing for half an hour, the photojournalists from the magazines came over. Ruan Yang invited Changqing over to do an interview with her.
The playing cards were strewn on the table. Zhan Mingwei knocked on the table. “Old Song, do you still want a reconciliation?”
Song Chuyi’s thin lips were pressed together unhappily into a line.
Zhan Mingwei said, “It’s just playing cards. You don’t have to keep saying she doesn’t know how to play and such. She doesn’t usually play. Besides, women aren’t as scheming and able to adapt when it comes to playing cards compared to men. We’re all just having fun. Didn’t you see that she basically didn’t talk towards the end?”
“Yeah, yeah.” Li Shaobin nodded. “Previously, when the three of us were playing, Changqing had quite a lot of fun and even couldn’t stop smiling.”
A trace of regret flashed in Song Chuyi’s dark pupils. It really wasn’t something to be happy about when your woman couldn’t stop smiling when she was playing cards with another man.
However, when did she start smiling less at him, and less compared to Li Shaobin?
Song Chuyi felt that he was even more unable to blow up or suppress the fire in his heart the more he thought about it.
He stood up suddenly and walked towards the courtyard outside.
Changqing was talking to a reporter from a Food Network from Northern City Broadcasting station. The reporter was a woman in her late twenties and was interviewing Changqing and Ruan Yang on which food was better at the restaurant.
Changqing mentioned the barbequed ribs when she suddenly felt a very strong gaze on her.
She turned her head slightly and saw Song Chuyi standing under the roof, watching her with his deep eyes.
She retracted her gaze and continued talking about delicacies with the interviewer but was a little more uncomfortable than earlier.
The interview lasted for 20 minutes until CEO Cai sent someone to remind the reporters that the time for interviews was up.
Once the reporters walked away, Song Chuyi opened up his stride and walked over, saying to Ruan Yang, “Miss Ruan, please go in first. I want to have a chat with her.”
Ruan Yang looked at Changqing. Changqing lowered her head as she pulled on her sleeve, not wanting to let her leave.
“Changqing, I’ll wait for you inside.” Ruan Yang sighed internally and still went in.
Song Chuyi took a step forward and stared at her with his dark pupils, not even blinking once. When he saw that she kept her head lowered, he pulled her towards the garden at the back gloomily.
“What do you want?” Changqing was a little frustrated by his pulling. “There are people everywhere; can you stop pulling me around at this kind of place?”
“I just want to pull you around. What’s wrong with that? You’re my wife. If they see it, so be it.” Song Chuyi pulled her into a corner and placed his hands on the wall behind her, trapping her in his embrace with his tall stature. He lowered his head, looked at the tip of her pointy nose and her eyelashes and was silent.
The two just stood there like that silently. Changqing found it increasingly ridiculous and pushed his chest as she felt a little frightened. “Can you not block me like this?”
“No.” Song Chuyi grabbed her hand. His cold eyes shone unnaturally as he said softly, “When we were playing cards earlier… I shouldn’t have scolded you. Don’t be angry.”
Changqing was stunned and couldn’t help but lift her head up slightly to look at his face. Because he was against the light, she could only see his slightly awkward gaze.
She was a little surprised. Was he apologizing?
However, an apology couldn’t change the fact that she was already afraid to be close to him.
She lowered her head and remained quiet.
Song Chuyi was slightly anxious and bent down a little, saying softly, “You… want a kiss?”
Changqing’s eyelashes trembled and she felt a little weird. She turned her face away. “No way.”
Her fair face revealed a sense of obstinacy. Her full lips pressed tightly together sexily.
His lips didn’t kiss hers, only pressing her cheek softly. He asked hoarsely, “Is your back better?”
“… In any case, I’m afraid I won’t be able to do it with you now,” Changqing replied after a moment of silence.
Song Chuyi’s handsome face froze. “You think the reason I asked was to bed you?”
“If not?”
“I think I’m still a little afraid now. I know you have strong needs. I won’t refuse to do it with you, but you have to wait for me to get better.”
“Yan Changqing…” Song Chuyi was so angry his heart ached.
Why must she misunderstand him like that?
He was never the kind to be a beast.
It was just when he touched her…
He couldn’t help but lift her chin up forcefully. He really wanted to kiss her forcefully, blocking that little mouth which spouted words that infuriated him. However, when he saw the fear in her eyes, he paused in his actions and felt a dense pain from his heart. In the end, he still said softly, “Just act like you did in the past. I guarantee that I won’t hurt you like that again. The last time, I was too angry. No matter where I went at the hospital, people all took me to be a pervert. I’ve never been so embarrassed before.”
Changqing continued to stay silent.
Why would I do something like that? It was all because of that necklace…
Why’s he coaxing me now? Why isn’t he looking for the owner of that necklace?
She still didn’t speak. Song Chuyi’s exquisite face once again became colder. He let go of her chin and said, “If you’re still not going to talk, I’ll slaughter Robben.”
Changqing’s peaceful face finally changed. She was in disbelief. “Robben is your dog, not mine.”
“Then I’ll look for a place to sell him later.” Song Chuyi let her go and said apathetically, “In any case, that b*stard only cares about you. I’ve long found him to be irksome.”
“You’re simply crazy.” Changqing was so angry her little eyes were staring wide and round at him.
Robben is so cute. Yes, even though he likes to pounce on female dogs sometimes, he’s still very cute.
This little face finally had a vivid expression. Song Chuyi lifted his chin slightly and continued to be expressionless. “In any case, I didn’t feed him for lunch.”
“You’re too much.” Changqing felt her body was in pain from the anger.
Pitiful Robben. He would feel horrible without a meal. How bad must he feel right now? No wonder why when she saw him at the door just now, he was looking at her with such a pitiful gaze.
Changqing felt increasing sympathy for him and turned to leave.
“Where are you going?” Song Chuyi grabbed onto her.
“I’m going to feed Robben something,” Changqing said with a foul, pretty face.
“Go ahead. Anyway, I’ll take him to a dog meat shop tonight after he’s had his fill,” Song Chuyi said.
“You won’t do it.” Changqing turned her head around and stared into his eyes. “Robben is the dog your patient left behind. You were treating him like your prized possession in the past.”
Song Chuyi cast her a glance with his arrogant eyes. “No matter how important he is, he cannot compare to you. With you treating me like this now, I feel angry the moment I see Robben. If you don’t believe me, you can try me.”
Changqing was stunned.
She felt an awkward and strange feeling rising within her heart.
So, was she finally more important than Robben now?
Should she be a little happy?
However, thinking about how he treated her previously, she couldn’t bring herself to feel happy. However, she had to consider Robben’s safety.
After all, Robben was more important than Song Chuchu. Wasn’t that so?
Seeing that she wasn’t talking anymore, Song Chuyi cleared his throat and curled his thin lips slightly. “If you make up with me, I won’t sell Robben and I’ll even get him a female dog. How interesting would it be to have a male and a female dog at home every day to play with?”
With a female dog, Robben wouldn’t keep pestering her.
Changqing’s brows were tightly knotted. She was utterly frustrated.
Even without him saying it, she already had intentions to get a female dog for Robben.
When it was time, Robben and the female dog would give birth to a bunch of cute little puppies and they would play around in the yard every day. How interesting.
Thinking about this, her eyes radiantly lit up involuntarily.
Song Chuyi saw the radiance and was a little more cheerful too. “After our meal, we’ll either go look for a female dog or take Robben to a dog meat shop. It’s one of the two.”
Changqing thought in her heart that he was really very cruel. However, for Robben’s sake, she would endure it and said softly with a pout, “Then we’ll go look for a female dog. But I promised Ruan Yang to have coffee with her after.”
“What’s so good about coffee? Let’s go choose a dog.” Song Chuyi reached out to caress her pink cheek. “What kind of dog do you like?”
“… I don’t know.” Changqing shook her head and was a little lost.
Song Chuyi saw her vacant, large eyes and wanted to kiss her even more. Hence, he lowered his head and kissed her lips without thinking.
Changqing still dodged to the side uncomfortably.
He was unhappy and said, “Whenever you said you wanted a kiss in the past, I would give it to you. Now that I want one, you’re not giving one to me. Isn’t that a little unfair?”
Changqing was stumped and mumbled softly, “Then I won’t want kisses in the future. Won’t that do?”
“No.” He lowered his head and finally had a taste of her soft little lips. Although he wasn’t quite satisfied, seeing that this lass was finally blushing a little, he stopped when necessary. He better not scare her.
“Let’s go back.” Changqing looked around uncomfortably, afraid that someone would appear suddenly. “I’m hungry.”
“If you’re hungry, we’ll go back inside to eat. What would you like? I’ll get it for you.” Song Chuyi held her little hand.
Changqing didn’t move and lowered her head as she said nervously, “If you’re like this, people will see.”
“So be it.” Song Chuyi paused and said, “Those reporters wouldn’t dare to take pictures of the people inside.”
“… Oh.” Only then did Changqing let him hold her carefully.
In the dining area, Zhan Mingwei and Li Shaobin clinked glasses with boredom. Li Shaobin squinted as he looked afar. Xin Ziao, that little b*stard, had appeared out of nowhere and was pestering Ruan Yang to talk to her.
Zhan Mingwei looked at him and said, “Don’t hate Xin Ziao so much. Isn’t he just a little more sanctimonious? Don’t offend him thoroughly.”
Li Shaobin burped. “I just don’t understand. What quality of Xin Ziao is so deserving of being liked? He’s a two-timer. And that Ruan Yang too. Really, she looks quite pretty, but is it all just glue in her brain? Are all those big-chested women…”
Li Shaobin poked his head. “…wrong up here?”
Zhan Mingwei despised him. “And you know that her chest is big how?”
Li Shaobin raised his hand as he swore, “It wasn’t on purpose. It’s just that I was sitting beside her just now and saw it accidentally.”
“If you didn’t stare at people’s chests, would you see it?” Zhan Mingwei mocked.
“In all honesty, I saw it with a glance. Can you not make me up to be so obscene?” Li Shaobin grumbled.
“Why don’t you just say she showed it to you on purpose?” Zhan Mingwei rolled his eyes.
