One salted fish kicked over the other flipped salted fish, “Hubby, I’m hungry.”
The flipped salty fish felt refreshed with excitement fresh in his mind.
He succeeded in showing his smugness to the fullest. Hooking up the corners of his lips, he gave a subdued “oh” like an Oscar-winning actor and raised his brows in mock surprise. “Didn’t you have enough to eat just now?”
“…”
There was a sudden silence.
Three seconds later, Yan cheng was kicked out of bed.
Completely naked, and filled with shame and indignation.
Chen Jinyao had a cold face. “I’m shutting you out for twenty minutes.”
Twenty minutes later, breakfast was sent in.
The cold war was over and the two made up at light speed.
——————————————–
They agreed to head to Yan Xiang’s house for a meal, but that never happened in the end.
Yan Xiang had to follow up with one of his projects that suddenly started ahead of time. It had come too suddenly and he also had to go abroad for this so there was no way about this. He wasn’t able to host them in the end.
He could only politely push the matter to the next time they visit Shanghai.
Of course, he also knew very well that Yan Cheng wouldn’t care whether they had dinner together or not.
So, he had said those words for Chen Jinyao to hear. When he occasionally called home and chatted with Mother Yan about family matters, Mother Yan would say, “Yan Cheng is afraid of his wife hahahahaha.”
Yan Cheng had no idea that his mother who spoiled him the most as a child had sold him out. So, when he saw his brother eyeing his wife, he agreed without a second thought. “Sure, I’ll definitely look for you when I’m over. You should visit home sometimes too.”
There are barely a couple days in a year where he’s at home.
After some thought, he nagged, “I think it’s time you bring us home a sister-in-law.”
Yan Xiang, “…”
Chen Jinyao sensible and kept quiet, but she was listening in.
Though, she almost couldn’t hold back from laughing.
After Yan Xiang left, she couldn’t hold back anymore and laughed out loud. Under Yan Cheng’s puzzled look, she curved her eyes and said, “Yan Cheng, I have a job to introduce you to when we get back.”
Yan Cheng had no idea what she meant. “What?”
Chen Jinyao, “Director of the neighborhood committee downstairs our district.”
Yan Cheng, “?????”
After that, the couple stayed in Shanghai for another three or four days. Chen Jinyao really did what she said and brought Yan Cheng eating and playing all over the city.
The big cities are basically all the same, so there wasn’t really much to browse.
If anything, they were probably just enjoying the atmosphere of a second honeymoon.
In addition, they took a trip to Disneyland.
Chen Jinyao was better off and tended to stay low-key about her life, but Yan Cheng was different. He played to the fullest and also showed off to the fullest.
His moments were covered in photos of their trip.
Chai Yue and the others would like a few of the photos and comment on them at first, but as time went on they just blocked him completely. It’s better for them to just keep happy bragging posts like these out of sight and out of mind.
Their trip in Shanghai was soon over.
After that, they took the high-speed train to Hangzhou, playing there for three days. Only then did they get ready to head to the most critical stop in Yan Cheng’s heart, Putuo Mountain where the Guanyin of Nanshan statue exists.
“I have to go and pray for a daughter. Hopefully, she’ll look like you,” he said.
Since they stopped using contraceptives, this idea had been stuck in his mind.
Now that he was finally going to get what he wants, if you exaggerate it a little, he probably wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight.
Chen Jinyao threw a glance at him but did not pay attention to his thoughts.
She thought to herself that it was quite touching to see a made man look forward to having children.
At the very least, his heart belonged completely to his family.
However, their plan to visit Putuo Mountain ended up a bust.
The night before the departure.
During the latter half of the night, the ring of a phone suddenly broke the darkness and silence.
It was Yan Cheng’s phone that was ringing incessantly.
The person on the other end seemed to have urgent business.
Yan Cheng frowned, his displeasure of being woken up clear on his face. Even though he was so grumpy that he wanted to throw his phone on the ground, he still checked on Chen Jinyao who had shrunk her head into the blanket first.
After that, he reached for the phone on the bedside table.
With slightly narrowed eyes, he looked at the coldly illuminated screen.
The caller ID on the screen shows Ah Tai who always follows the principle of “never bothering someone unless you really have to.”
