Chapter 235: Chapter 182 How Many Won Do You Have Exactly_3
Xiao ier gave Chen Cheng a look, “Xiao Chen, why don’t you escort Xiao ng.”
Turning to ng Wanning, she said, “Xiao ng, let’s et another day.”
“Okay.”
The two walked out of Wanbao Hall, the moon was bright, casting long shadows of them.
ng Wanning walked beside Chen Cheng and spoke quietly, “Mr. Chen, how many won do you actually have?”
Chen Cheng slowed his pace, “What do you an?”
ng Wanning stopped, “Sister ier, and that foreign girl earlier, who was talking to you at the door…”
“I can tell she’s interested in you.”
Chen Cheng stopped walking, turned around, and quietly looked at ng Wanning under the moonlight.
“So? What are you trying to say?”
ng Wanning took a deep breath, courageously staring into Chen Cheng’s eyes, and said word by word, “I want to know, with so many girls around you, and Sister ier is so nice, why would you still bring sunflower seeds.”
Chen Cheng was silent for a mont, “You’ve misunderstood.”
“Misunderstood?”
“I don’t understand opera, I didn’t even know what you were singing that day.” Chen Cheng answered straightforwardly, “Giving you sunflower seeds and saying that thing about Xue Liang, all those were taught by Mr. Jin.”
“Mr. Jin?”
ng Wanning was stunned for a mont, not expecting this answer.
“He taught you? Why would he teach you those?”
Chen Cheng smiled, “I don’t know either.”
Saying this, Chen Cheng paused for a few seconds, then added, “If my actions have caused you trouble, I apologize to you right here.”
ng Wanning smiled bitterly, “That’s true, I should have realized.”
“Realized what?”
“Nowadays, not many people understand opera. You obviously don’t frequent Li Garden, how would you understand it?”
She looked at Chen Cheng, “Mr. Chen, thank you for telling the truth.”
“As for those sunflower seeds, I’ve already given them to my master.”
Chen Cheng was curious and asked, “By the way, Miss ng, you’ve always ntioned your master, but on the car ride today you said you were from Shanghai Drama Academy…”
ng Wanning answered, “My master, Cui Xiaoling, she and Mr. Jin are old acquaintances.”
Chen Cheng raised an eyebrow, rembering that Jin Baogen once said he had countless female friends.
Listening to ng Wanning saying this, it seed the yet-to-et Cui Xiaoling was one of them.
Seeing an intriguing expression on Chen Cheng’s face, ng Wanning paused, then continued, “She took as her last disciple, then recomnded to the affiliated opera school of the Shanghai Drama Academy.”
Chen Cheng gave a thumbs up, “That’s pretty impressive.”
ng Wanning’s ride-share had arrived at the roadside. She checked the ti and said with a smile, “It’s getting late, I should go now.”
Chen Cheng nodded slightly, “Alright, be careful on the way.”
ng Wanning put her hand on the door handle, turning back, “By the way, Mr. Chen, you haven’t answered my question.”
“What question?”
“How many won do you actually have?”
Chen Cheng was startled for a mont, then smiled and asked in return, “Miss ng, how many do you think I should have?”
ng Wanning didn’t back down because of Chen Cheng’s evasion, after seriously thinking for a while, she said, “I think three.”
“You are quite accurate.” Chen Cheng replied.
ng Wanning bowed slightly, “Goodbye, Mr. Chen.”
Chen Cheng watched the ride-share leave until the taillights were out of sight before returning to Wanbao Hall.
“My husband, has Xiao ng left?”
Xiao ier, who was calculating the accounts at the bar, asked.
Chen Cheng poured himself a cup of tea, saying lightly, “Yes, she called a car herself.”
Xiao ier sped up her movents, quickly finishing today’s accounts, and walked out.
“Didn’t expect Xiao ng to be so caring.”
“Yes.”
Xiao ier: “Then shall we go ho?”
Chen Cheng looked at the clock on the wall, teasingly said, “It’s only 9 o’clock, heading ho already? Doesn’t sound like you.”
Xiao ier glared at Chen Cheng playfully, “You heartless man, I just want to go back early with you.”
Chen Cheng smiled, took Xiao ier’s hand, “Okay, let’s go ho.”
The two left Wanbao Hall and got into the car.
On the way, Xiao ier leaned on Chen Cheng’s shoulder, quietly enjoying this serene mont.
Back at their courtyard house in Houhai, Xiao ier prepared a cup of honey water for Chen Cheng, “Have so of this, you didn’t drink much tonight, did you?”
Chen Cheng smiled as he took it, “Not at all, I didn’t drink several glasses.”
Xiao ier gently tapped Chen Cheng’s forehead, “Clever you.”
Chen Cheng took a sip of the honey water, set down the cup, and pulled Xiao ier into his embrace.
“I haven’t taken a shower yet~”
Chen Cheng: “Together?”
Xiao ier blushed, “Naughty, you go first.”
“Waiting for you~”
“I know.”
In the bathroom, there’s a transparent skylight.
Although it’s not easy to see the stars in Beijing, life needs a bit of romance, just like cooking needs salt.
As Chen Cheng showered, his mind was filled with what Li Ya had said in front of Wanbao Hall.
But he was more concerned about Liu Zhiya.
Listening to Su Liya’s tone, the situation seed quite serious, but he couldn’t understand why Liu Zhiya hadn’t called or ssaged him.
“Even if I changed my number in Japan, there should be a WeChat ssage, right?” Chen Cheng thought to himself.
After much pondering, Chen Cheng decided to find an opportunity to ask tomorrow.
A chain of thoughts kept Chen Cheng so occupied that he didn’t notice Xiao ier’s approach.
When a familiar touch ca from his back, Chen Cheng finally reacted.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Chen Cheng slowly turned around, seeing her with her hair up, looking down, his gaze softened.
He gently lifted Xiao ier’s chin, and she smiled lightly, “Husband, you’re finally back.”
That single phrase spirited Chen Cheng.
Love is like nurturing a flower.
Chen Cheng of course wouldn’t let the gentlest Xiao ier down.
“In here…?”
Mhm~
Mhm Mhm~
The bathroom was filled with steam, Xiao ier finally reunited with the one she had been longing for.
