22 Chapter 22 : The Beautiful Mrs. Xing

The people inside the bar were all surprised to see Xiulan, or what they call her the famous Mrs. Xing, inside Good Blue bar and especially being escorted by Wu family's first son, Tung-Yi.

They were undeniably surprised by how Mrs. Xing is really beautiful in person. They thought that the media were just exaggerating and hyping her.Trying to kiss Hongqi's ass by praising his wife.

But they have never thought that she would look this good and regal with just normal clothes. She definitely fits to be Hongqi's wife. The fact that she's not even a celebrity and she has this level of beauty makes everyone jealous. If she becomes an actress or model, she would definitely top all the current beauties in show business.

"What the hell are they looking at? Is this the first time they saw a person?" Xiulan annoyingly muttered to herself. She was so irritated by how these bar people gawking at her.

"I apologize. This might be the first time they saw you in person that's why they kept on looking at you." Tung-Yi apologetically said. He would also stare at her if he was in another perspective's view but currently he has to escort her.

Xiulan looked at Tung-Yi and nodded her head.

"Is it really surprising to see Mrs. Xing in here?" Xiulan innocently asked.

What's so good about being Mrs. Xing anyway? She understands the overly top privilege and having a hot wealthy husband. But for her, these things are so-so.

Well she's from a well-off family and she has zero interest in men or specifically in liking someone. So she will never understand the hype of being Mrs. Xing.

"Yes. Of course every girl out there wanted to be Mrs. Xing. Seeing the real Mrs. Xing in flesh is like meeting a goddess." Tung-Yi muttered. Actually for Tung-Yi "More like they are surprised by your beauty. We didn't expect you to be this gorgeous in person." Tung-Yi mumbled to himself.

Tung-Yi quickly took a glance at Xiulan's outfit. "To think you look like you will only stroll in a mall or in a park yet the charisma is oozing!" He can't help but secretly admire her.

"Is that so?" Xiulan will never understand.

"Yes. Oh by the way, here we are." Tung-Yi announced and opens the door for Xiulan.

Xiulan immediately saw Hongqi's drunken stupor. She quickly narrowed her eyes at her good actor husband then changed her expression to a more shocked but caring and exaggeratedly gasp. "Oh! Why did he drink so much liquor?"

Tung-Yi was startled by Xiulan's sudden gasp. "Uh… there was a huge problem in his company earlier and he drank a lot to remove his stress away." Tung-Yi patiently explained and lied. Whatever stress or problem Hongqi has, he will never drink like this. It's only an act for whatever plan he has.

"I see…that bad?" Xiulan said and looked at Tung-Yi to get more answers. She definitely won't buy that reason. She knew that Hongqi was not the type to drink his worries away.

Xiulan's worried eyes made Tung-Yi's heart skip a beat. "Y-Yes. It involves one of his best actors so it was a big problem for him."

"I see…" Xiulan worriedly uttered. She was genuinely worried. Of course if it's about business,it will be really quite depressing.

She went near Hongqi and slowly rubbed his back to give him some comfort. "I'm here. Let's go?" she asked and tried to catch if he will wake up. He didn't answer but only faintly nodded as his response.

She swiftly sniffs him and the liquor's smell immediately envelops in Xiulan's nose; she wanted to vomit. Xiulan really hates the smell of liquor.

She created a disgustful expression and honestly said to Tung-Yi "Can you help me move him to my car? I think I won't be able to stand the alcohol's smell."

She really hated that smell and she won't be able to endure smelling that even if it's just a few minutes.

Tung-Yi called some staff to lift Hongqi. When they were about to touch Hongqi, he immediately declined and firmly declared "I only want my wife to touch me."

Xiulan was watching all of this happen in front of her and she felt like she was cornered to the edge of a cliff when she heard Hongqi's declaration.

"You son of a gun! Why are you making things hard for me, huh?" Xiulan complained in her heart.

She awkwardly smiled at the staff and Tung-Yi. "It's alright. Can you get me some mint ointment? I will just put some in my nose."

Tung-Yi felt bad for Xiulan. She has to endure something she hates so much. Seeing that awkward smile from her made Tung-Yi want to help her so bad but he can't because Hongqi was being a brat.

Xiulan helped Hongqi get up and good thing that Hongqi cooperated. He slightly put his weight on Xiulan and hugged her waist. Hongqi acted like he was really drunk by walking so silly and kept on flirting with Xiulan.

"Ah, finally my beautiful wife." Hongqi cheekily said and shamelessly kissing her cheeks.

Tung-Yi and the rest of the staff were amazed and shocked how clingy Hongqi to his wife. They all thought it was only for show. They look natural and Hongqi doesn't seem to care if he was labled as a clingy husband.

Well that was his original plan anyway. To be the clingy husband and Xiulan as the cold yet caring wife.

They were now outside the bar and it's really gotten cold. Hongqi was wearing a huge coat.

He notice that Xiulan was slightly shivering.

"Wait." He said and suddenly stops walking. He open the rest of the button of his huge-ass expensive coat then he pull Xiulan closer to his body and drape the extra cloth on Xiulan. He held her waist so tightly, no gaps and space between them. Then he sexily whispered "This would have been better if it was skin to skin."

Xiulan became flustered and her ears were really red now. She wanted to stomp Hongqi's foot but unfortunately she's wearing the Hermes oran sandals. That won't even hurt his leathered foot.

He was also hugging her oh so tightly, her actions were limited. She can only pinch his cheeks and angrily pouted "You stop being a pervert. I want to go home and sleep."

Hongqi gave a heartily laugh and continued pestering Xiulan until they reached Xiulan's white Mercedes Maybach.

It was a really sweet and natural gesture. These were all seen by Tung-Yi and the staff. This was another shock for them. How can Mrs. Xing be this cute!

"So sweet!" one of female staff commented.

Tung-Yi is now confused. "Are they still both acting or is this a natural occurrence between them? This level of sweetness is too pure."

"Just bear with it for a little while." Xiulan chanted to herself. She must endure all the overbearing requests of this man and the liquor smell. She's not sure if there will be a chance to divorce him. So it's better to tolerate his nonsensical wishes this early.

Xiulan concentrated in helping the 'drunk' Hongqi sit in the shotgun seat. The shameless man kept on flirting and whispering perverted words. She almost forgot to bid farewell to Tung-Yi, good thing the man coughed to get her attention.

"Mr. Wu, thank you for escorting us until here. If this happens again, please call my number." Xiulan said and handed a business card to Tung-Yi.

Tung-Yi stared down at the card for a few seconds before accepting it. Tung-Yi never thought that someone would give him a business card just for the purpose of calling them when an emergency happens. Really weird but very refreshing idea.

"No problem, Mrs. Xing. Hope to see you again. But I really do hope our next meeting doesn't involve a drunk Hongqi." Tung-Yi joked before he said good bye.

Xiulan quickly pace towards the driver's seat while muttering "So cold, so cold." She regretted that she wore such thin fabrics and even wearing a sandal. The denim jacket didn't help at all. She should atleast put on some thick socks. Her legs were icey!

As she sat on the driver's seat, she glance at the sleeping Hongqi and there was an obvious contentment on his face. It irritated Xiulan a little bit but at least her work here is done.

"Are you really drunk? You're not gonna vomit right?" She asked the unconscious Hongqi. When she didn't got any answer, she just sighed and prayed that he won't splat all of his vomit inside the car.

She was about to start the engine when Hongqi suddenly talk. "Let's go to Golden Acre Residences. I have a penthouse there."

Xiulan stared down at Hongqi who still has his eyes shut yet his mouth was commanding her like she was his servant.

It slightly annoys her but she must endure. "Endure." the ultimate mantra of Xiulan.

She really doesn't understand her role today. Tung-Yi could have done this job for him but no, he has to pester her.

She quickly searched the place in her mobile phone and tracked the route to Golden Acre Residences.

The distance was really short and it only took them ten minutes to get there.

Xiulan was amazed by the golden statues and elevator. It really lives to the golden theme and name.

They were now inside the elevator and Hongqi went back to his clingy persona again and he clutches himself to Xiulan.

There were other people inside the elevator and these people can't stop staring at the couple.

Xiulan wanted to prick each of their eyes. "How can they shamelessly stare at us?" Xiulan silently complained. Today, she got a lot of unwanted attention and she's not happy at all!

Finally they have reached Hongqi's penthouse and the best actor still clungs himself to Xiulan.

"Hey, can you atleast open the door? Stop hugging me already!" Xiulan complained and tried her best to get out of Hongqi's arms.

The shameless Hongqi didn't let go until they went inside the penthouse.

Hongqi immediately plop his body on the soft sofa bed in the living room while Xiulan helplessly tried to look for the kitchen. She was really thirsty. Imagine a six footer man putting most of his weight on her while walking. Such drastic energy consuming activity.

She was gulping down the water. Then she took another glass and poured water in it.

She went to the living room and put the glass on the coffee table beside the soft sofa bed.

"Here, drink some water." Xiulan said before she sits on the sofa chair. Hongqi didn't answer and continues being motionless on the sofa bed.

~complete silence~

Xiulan was waiting for Hongqi's next demand but he remains silent. It was so quiet. "So what am I going to do now?" Xiulan asked herself.

"Uh... it's getting late. I better go if you don't have anymore requests." Xiulan said and stands up from her seat.

Hongqi quickly twisted his head and call Xiulan's attention. "Wait! I still have something to say." He said and handsomely grinned.

Xiulan raised her eyebrows at him. "Whatis he up to again?"
