Chapter 847

Don’t Go In Now

“What are you talking about? She’s my wife.” Yang Chen butt in and held Liu Mingyu’s hand.

Liu Mingyu looked at him in shock. When did she go from ‘lover’ to ‘wife’?

The shop assistant was confused but didn’t say anything else as she continued her job. She introduced to them some sporting equipment, including a couple colourful ones for women.

Liu Mingyu was still in a state of shock when they left the shop. She asked Yang Chen nervously. “Hubby… why did you say that? You’ll be chased out if Boss Lin found out.”

“It’s just you and me here. If you don’t tell, she wouldn’t know. I certainly wouldn’t tell her.” Yang Chen grimaced. “I know it’s being slightly mean to her but how could I be afraid to call you my wife if you always call me ‘hubby’?”

“I call you that because I think it’s sweet and that I will never have a real husband for the rest of my life.” Liu Mingyu smiled, filled with jealousy.

Yang Chen caressed her cheeks. “I know you all have given up a lot to be with me. I’ve had sleepless nights thinking about my animalistic actions. I ripped you guys off your true paths in life to make you my women. There are things that can’t be simply forgiven just by buying you guys branded things or offering protection.

“Although I can’t treat each of you guys like a real husband, I’ll do my best. If I have to be a bad person, the least I could do is prove my heart in sincere right?”

Liu Mingyu looked at him deeply as she tiptoed and pecked his lips.

“So you do have some form of self awareness. I thought I was being kidnapped and enslaved. But then there’s no one else better than you. Even the nicest of men have hurt me before. For someone who’s been hurt before, it makes sense to simply choose someone who’s strong and can protect me.”

Yang Chen’s jaw dropped. “What? Simply choose? Am… am I really that unattractive?”

“No, you’re an outstanding man other than the fact that you come with many, many lovers.” Liu Mingyu continued, “Plus your height and looks.”

Yang Chen wanted to spank her but he couldn’t, remembering his height of 176 centimeters and his ordinary looks.

They chatted while shopping and sat down in a restaurant for lunch after they were done.

They were planning to find somewhere else and spend time together in the afternoon but a call came from the company. Liu Mingyu’s presence was requested at the company because the public relations department had to welcome an important group of people from overseas.

Liu Mingyu felt bad but work was work. She pouted at Yang Chen asking him to send her back.

Yang Chen didn’t want to force her so he decided to tag along, bringing the stuff he had bought for Lin Ruoxi to the company.

He wanted to apologize to her in her office and explain what happened. Better here than at home with his mother and Wang Ma.

They returned to the Yu Lei International office building around two in the afternoon. Liu Mingyu ran back to the public relations department for work while Yang Chen carried the bag of sports equipment and went up to the CEO’s office.

He bumped into Zhao Hongyan who was going down when he came out of the lift.

She was finally able to put that embarrassing night behind her and move on from it.

Zhao Hongyan beamed at him, but immediately asked worriedly, “Yang Chen, are you here for Boss Lin?”

“Of course,” Yang Chen replied.

“Not for me?” Zhao Hongyan hummed.

Yang Chen was startled to hear that.

Zhao Hongyan blushed and said, “I think it’s better if you don’t go in now. Boss Lin was very upset at you last night. I don’t even dare to speak loudly. It was like standing in an ice cellar.”

Fear was evident in his eyes.
