Chu Yi was thankful for Qin Yiheng again.

After Qin Yiheng said that he would arrange the meeting, Mother Qin stopped asking about Chu Yi’s family. The topic was naturally pulled away, Mother Qin laughed helplessly, she said while looking at Qin Yiheng: “You’ll arrange it? You’re so busy, until when will we have to wait?”

Chu Yi also laughed and did not speak again.

Chu Yi doesn’t really want to talk about his family at the moment. After all, it was a sudden meeting with the other’s parent, he was unprepared, and it was the first time they met.

The three of them started eating porridge, and Chu Yi let out a sigh of relief in his heart.

This morning seemed uneventful, but it was actually quite stimulating.

Mother Qin had something to do. After breakfast, she didn’t let Chu Yi wash dishes, she washed them herself before leaving the house.

Qin Yiheng asked the driver to take his mother back. Before leaving, Qin Yiheng and Chu Yi send Mother Qin off at the door. Mother Qin did not chatter much because of her frequent visits, she simply said to call her if there’s any problem. Then she waved at the two children and left.

After getting in the car, Mother Qin rolled down the car window and looked at Qin Yiheng: “You have to make time for the two families to meet as soon as possible. This can’t be delayed for too long.”

Qin Yiheng nodded: “I know.”

If other people say they know, it might be a perfunctory answer. But Chu Yi knows that if Qin Yiheng says he knows, then he must know for sure.

Mother Qin was relieved when he had answered, she said goodbye to Chu Yi with a smile and then closed the car window.

It was still early, so Chu Yi followed Qin Yiheng back to the house.

About Chu Yi’s single-parent family.

In his third year of junior high school, his parents divorced. The court gave the custody of him to his mother. He and his mother moved from his father’s hometown to his mother’s hometown, which is City A. Then the mother and son duo have been dependent on each other until now.

In today’s society, a single-parent family wasn’t really a big deal, but his family is a little complicated. His father isn’t a good person and has served time in prison.

So Chu Yi has been reluctant to mention his father.

It was only 9 o’clock. Due to what happened this morning, Chu Yi was not sleepy at all and actually felt quite energetic.

Judging from how he got along with Mother Qin today, Qin Yiheng’s family should be quite cozy. These past days, Qin Yiheng probably used his family as a reference to construct a large part of his marriage.

Even if Chu Yi can’t perceive Qin Yiheng’s love, he can still feel his warmth.

Chu Yi packed up and said goodbye to Qin Yiheng. Qin Yiheng mn-ed in reply.

Qin Yiheng looks like he’s at home and isn’t working, but in fact, after he made tea and sat on the sofa in the living room, only reports from the company were shown on the computer.

Chu Yi quietly left and closed the door. He went to the garage and drove his car out.

The scenery in the morning and the scenery at night are two different scenes. The not overly dazzling sunshine sprinkled over all the green plants and it made those who look at it feel energized.

Chu Yi was not in a hurry and drove slowly. Coming out of Zhen Jing was a short mountain road that had several pedestrians. It was clearly in City A and is near the city center yet still so far from the hustle and bustle.

While Chu Yi felt it was beautiful, he couldn’t help but sigh, as expected of a place where rich people live.

But he didn’t get to enjoy this mood for long as his cell phone rang.

Chu Yi frowned and picked it up.

Xiao Zhan’s voice was very quiet, he said a very soft hello as if he was afraid that someone would hear.

Chu Yi: “What’s wrong?”

Xiao-Zhan said: “Boss, your father came to the studio.”

Chu Yi halted  and decelerated the car: “When did he come?”

stolen content if not on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Xiao-Zhan: “A few minutes ago, he said he wanted to see you, but I told him you’re not coming today and that you’re on a business trip.”

Chu Yi mn-ed as this was something he ordered, then said: “And then?”

Xiao-Zhan: “He’s not leaving, he said he’s waiting in the studio until you come.”

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Chu Yi parked the car on the side of the road.

Xiao-Zhan was worried: “Boss, it’s better if you don’t come today.”

Chu Yi thought for a bit then said: “Okay, later go to my office and send me the folder with today’s date.”

Xiao-Zhan: “Sure sure sure.”

Chu Yi: “Leave your phone beside you and leave the office door open. If he does anything weird, immediately call the police.

Xiao-Zhan: “Mn, he won’t do anything to us, but boss, you be careful at home.”

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Chu Yi: “I will.”

After hanging up the phone, Chu Yi buried his face in his arms.

In fact, he’s afraid of his father. When his father went to jail, it was because he called the police. Now his hooligan-like father has come to City A and is looking for him, Chu Yi’s afraid of his revenge.

Looks like he can’t go to the studio today. Fortunately, when his father followed him before, he only followed him to his apartment, so he doesn’t know where his mother currently lives.

After turning the car around, Chu Yi drove back to Zhen Jing.

This time, Chu Yi’s mood was not as good as when he set off and he felt stuffy in his heart.

After entering the residential area, he did not go home directly but went to the supermarket first.

Chu Yi was thinking that since Qin Yiheng is at home right now and he couldn’t make breakfast this morning, he might as well make lunch. Otherwise, if he goes back so dryly and Qin Yiheng ends up asking, Chu Yi wouldn’t know what to answer.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Thinking of four side dishes and one soup, Chu Yi quickly bought the ingredients and drove back. He unlocked the door with the password and went inside.

Qin Yiheng looked the same from when he went out. He was sitting on the sofa and looking at his computer, but the tea on the table was half empty.

Seeing that Chu Yi came back, Qin Yiheng looked up at him confused.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Qin Yiheng gave Chu Yi the feeling of home.

Chu Yi walked over and smiled, he lifted the ingredients naturally: “I thought of you being at home alone and wanted to make you lunch, how about trying my cooking?”

Qin Yiheng didn’t ask much, he lowered his head and continued to look at his computer: “Okay.”

Over here, Chu Yi went to the kitchen with the ingredients. Over there, Qin Yiheng picked up his phone and made a call.

“Come in the afternoon instead, 3 o’clock, mn, there’s someone making lunch, thank you.”

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yiheng very naturally glanced in the direction of the kitchen before slowly retracting it.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

It was still early, and the dishes Chu Yi planned on making were all simple dishes, so he didn’t plan to cook this soon.

Qin Yiheng was working so Chu Yi did not disturb him. Xiao-Zhan already emailed the files over, Chu Yi went to the bedroom and also brought out his computer. Qin Yiheng sat on the left side of the sofa, so he sat on the right, no one was disturbing no one.

In the folder are several pictures that need to be modified. Chu Yi logged into WeChat on the computer, put on the headphones, and started to work.

Chu Yi was engrossed in modifying the picture, it took nearly half an hour for one picture. After sending it to the client, he raised his head and stretched his waist, but from the corner of his eye, he seemed to see…

Chu Yi turned his head and found Qin Yiheng looking at him.

Chu Yi froze for a bit, then put his headphones down.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Qin Yiheng, who got caught, was not flustered at all. However, Chu Yi, who didn’t know how long he got stared at, his body became hot and his ears became red.

Qin Yiheng leaned slightly: “Are you free?”

Chu Yi nodded repeatedly: “Yes, yes.”

God, why is Qin Yiheng suddenly so gentle.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Qin Yiheng: “I’ll teach you how to water the flowers and how to feed the fishes.”

Chu Yi nodded: “Okay.”

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Qin Yiheng put his computer on the coffee table, Chu Yi also did so before standing up and following Qin Yiheng outside.

The sun was already leaning in and all the plants on the balcony were covered in sunlight.

Chu Yi didn’t observe so carefully in the morning, but now with the task in mind, he took a more careful look.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

There are many plants here that he has seen before as well as some never seen ones. There are also some flowers that seemed to be arranged by a specialist. So many different things are placed together, yet it is very beautiful.

“In addition to the balcony, there are a few potted plants in the living room,” Qin Yiheng looked at Chu Yi: “I’ll start talking now, do you want to note it down with your phone or with your brain?”

Chu Yi thought for a bit, so many things, and said: “Phone.”

After speaking, he took out his phone and opened the memo.

“These.” Qin Yiheng pointed to a range of plants: “Water once every two to three days.”

Chu Yi took photos, saved them into the memo, and wrote ‘once every two to three days’.

Chu Yi: “How much do I water?”

Qin Yiheng replied: “The appropriate amount.”

Chu Yi: “…Okay.”

Chu Yi has some plants in his studio, but most of them are taken care of by Rongrong. There is a pot in his office, which Rongrong chose for him. She said it’s very easy to take care of, it’s the type that won’t die even if it’s not watered.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Chu Yi wrote ‘appropriate amount’ into the memo, thinking of asking Rongrong next time.

“These.” Qin Yiheng continued: “Once half a month.”

Chu Yi nodded, this time he didn’t ask. He took some photos and wrote ‘appropriate amount’ onto the memo.

“These.” Qin Yiheng switched to another part: “It depends on the season. Look at the soil. If the top of the soil is dry, it means that it needs to be watered, usually half a year or more. “

Chu Yi earnestly nodded and earnestly noted it down.

“Lastly these.” Qin Yiheng pointed at a few: “They don’t need to be watered.”

Chu Yi ah-ed, then used his phone to take pictures.

As they talked and walked, Chu Yi arrived at a place that could relatively be outside. After Qin Yiheng finished appointing the tasks, he took his phone and matched the pictures with each plant one by one, making sure that nothing was missing before saving it.

“I got it all down, if you don’t have time in the future, you can leave these plants to me.”

Qin Yiheng mn-ed, then as if he remembered something, he asked: “You know how much to water?”

Chu Yi started to laugh.

Good question, Mr. Qin!

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Chu Yi: “I don’t know.”

Qin Yiheng’s tone was a little helpless: “Why aren’t you asking me if you don’t know?”

Chu Yi laughed: “I will know.”

Qin Yiheng tilted his head: “You’re planning on asking someone else?”

Chu Yi was shocked, Qin Yiheng, your associative ability is too good.

Chu Yi answered honestly: “My employee, her[1] mom opens a flower shop.”

Qin Yiheng frowned slightly: “Who? Male or female?”

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

Chu Yi: “Female, Rongrong.”

Qin Yiheng’s tone suddenly turned a little mean: “Why aren’t you asking me?”

Chu Yi paused.

This question is also a good question.

“Because I-.” Chu Yi felt that he couldn’t say it and could only restart: “Because her mom opens a flower shop.”

Qin Yiheng said in a dull tone, “Just look at the soil, if the soil is not dry, it’s enough if the water doesn’t overflow.”

Chu Yi immediately nodded: “Okay.”

Why does he slightly feel that Qin Yiheng is angry?

Although Qin Yiheng did say that during this marriage, he can ask him if he has any questions.

But…

It didn’t need to be this strict right?

Chu Yi coughed and could only smile foolishly at Qin Yiheng.

Qin Yiheng was facing the balcony door and looked down at him. When he smiled like that, their eyes met off guard.

It’s been so many days, it’s not like they haven’t met their eyes before.

But Chu Yi felt that it was strange, they should’ve been more and more familiar with each other, yet why did he become shyer the longer their eyes met.

He coughed again, wanting to say something, then he saw something on the balcony from the corner of his eye.

Chu Yi raised his head, pointed up: “The plants up there also need to be watered?”

Qin Yiheng’s position wasn’t very good. In order to see the place Chu Yi pointed at clearly, he took a step towards Chu Yi and looked in the direction that his finger pointed at.

Qin Yiheng retracted his gaze very quickly and looked towards Chu Yi, the “no” in his throat wouldn’t come out no matter what.

The man in front of him is now extremely close to him, the two had never been this close in broad daylight.

Chu Yi raised his head slightly, his eyes still on the pots of plants. His not long but bushy eyelashes made his eyes very beautiful, he looked like a little curious deer.

Qin Yiheng’s Adam’s apple moved unnaturally, and then Chu Yi lowered his head.

“Mn?” Likely because Qin Yiheng didn’t respond for a long time, Chu Yi asked again: “Do they need to be watered?”

When Chu Yi spoke, his lips moved. Qin Yiheng didn’t know what he said at all, he only saw the two lips opening and closing.

Chu Yi’s lips are dark pink and the corners of his mouth are naturally curved upwards. He looks like he is smiling even when he is expressionless. At this moment, because he was talking, his two front teeth were exposed from time to time, which looked nicely tight.

Qin Yiheng blinked.

Chu Yi also seemed to have noticed something was wrong. He looked back and found that Qin Yiheng was staring at him.

The moment their eyes met again, Chu Yi couldn’t help but lick his lips.

The lips that got instantly moistened made Qin Yiheng’s Adam’s apple move again.

please read on https://shanghaifantasy.com/novel/accidentally-married-a-man-full-of-vinegar/

And then he lowered his head and kissed Chu Yi.
