Chapter 272 - Bargaining with her body.

Even though the reporters didn't manage to get close to them, they still managed to click a picture of Chen K and Lady Chen together.

And this picture also appeared on the front cover page of a newspaper.

The news of this press conference immediately reached Liu Longwei ten minutes into it.

Listening to the reports, and then back to his happy wife roaming around the streets of India, he felt a headache coming.

As soon as he ended the call from Asst. Duyi, Chen Lihua looked at the worried look on his face and asked in concern.

"Why do you have that look on your face, did something happen?"

Liu Longwei shook his head while holding her hand and said, "Let's go."

Chen Lihua gave him a glance, so he smiled before assuring her, "Don't worry, nothing happened."

Seeing as he was tight-lipped, Chen Lihua decided not to bother with it.

So she smiled happily when she sighted a sweet store, and she immediately dragged Liu Longwei with her to go to the sweet store, while the four bodyguards followed them inconspicuously.

Chen Lihua spent an adventurous time in India with Liu Longwei for three days, before they left for Paris, the city of love.

And coincidentally, Paris fashion week was going on that week, so Chen Lihua pleaded with Liu Longwei for him to follow her to the show.

Chen Lihua's modelling agency contacted her some time back, asking her if she would grace the occasion, as a former Supermodel.  She had given them a vague reply back then.

She said that if she was in Paris within that period, she would definitely attend, and if not, she wouldn't be present.

And now that she was in Paris, she made up her mind to go for the show, but not without Liu Longwei.

"You can go ahead, I will just wait for you to return," Liu Longwei said to her.

Chen Lihua cajoled him in several ways, but he still refused to bulge, so she decided to go with her last card.

"Longwei, please follow me to the Paris Fashion Week, I promise I will give you what you want."

Liu Longwei glanced at her while asking, "how are you sure that you know what I want?"

"Don't you want to sleep with me?" Chen Lihua asked.

Liu Longwei sighed as he said, "Yes, I want to sleep with you."

"That's what I'm saying. You just have to follow me to the show, and then you can sleep with me," Chen Lihua said self-righteously.

"Are you bargaining with your body now?" Liu Longwei asked, not knowing whether to cry or to laugh.

He was supposed to have rights over her body, she was his lawfully wedded wife for crying out loud. But now, he was being extorted just to touch and do as he pleased with her body.

Where was this ever heard of?

"You can say that," Chen Lihua said without denying his words, as she looked at the henna designs on her palms.

"Oh. You seem to have healed a lot since you want to trade your body to me for my company," Liu Longwei said with a smirk.

This woman told him that he couldn't have s.e.x with her for some days, till she has healed completely. When he asked her how many days he had to wait in the morning, they were to embark on their honeymoon journey, she said two weeks.

He was indeed shocked by her answer, but he had no choice but to believe her. It wasn't like he would start making calls to find out if what she said was true, it would be very embarrassing if he did that.

But it totally slipped his mind to check the Internet when he had no option, so he allowed himself to be deceived.

But now, here she, Chen Lihua, was trying to trade her 'not healed' body for him just so he would accompany her.

Does this woman take me for a fool?

Who is she trying to play mind games with?

"It's not like I have healed. Am just doing this because I want you to escort me," Chen Lihua replied half-heartedly.

Liu Longwei stared at her for some seconds. Then he sighed before giving in to her, while calmly thinking if this woman would fulfil her end of the bargain.

That morning, Chen Lihua contacted her modelling agency. They told her that they would arrange for her to come to the fashion show the evening of the next day, which Chen Lihua happily obliged to.

And because she was a well-known supermodel, and favour was in her sight, Michael Cinco, a Dubai based designer, gave her a dress to walk the runway.

Chen Lihua would never refuse the opportunity to walk down the runway at this moment.

Dubai-based Filipino designer Michael Cinco is best known for his fabulous couture gowns. His innate creativity and masterful techniques have catapulted him to the front ranks of fashion.

He had cultivated a dedicated following for the luxe and intricacy of his designs, with their fresh, elegant, and detailed juxtapositions of fabric and Swarovski crystals.

Michael's celebrity clients include Beyoncé, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, and a lot more of them.

Chen Lihua was also one of his clients.

Michael Cinco and Chen Lihua's wedding gown designer, Delmas Andrien, had a thing for using Swarovski crystals for their dress designs.

The next day during the makeup section just before the show, Chen Lihua's palms were covered with a fancy glove that had crystals.

The hand gloves were made the previous day, so it would be able to hide the henna on Chen Lihua's palms.

The glove weren't supposed to be a part of the dress, but it just turned out well.

That was made possible by a fashionista.

Chen Lihua's model friends were so happy to see her after she quit her modelling career.

Gigi and Kendall were present, and they welcomed her happily. But they refrained from speaking about her wedding.

Chen Lihua had mixed emotions, seeing herself where she used to belong after so many months.

She kind of missed this aspect of her life, even though she had quit on her own.
