Super Soldier in the Chapter 542 - 554 Revealing to the Wife

Chapter 542: Chapter 554 Revealing to the Wife

The woman was from the rcenary organization run by Li Yifei, and her greatest skill was makeup artistry. This ti, when Yifei brought people over, she followed as well. He had originally wanted her to do sothing else, but given the planned birthday celebration for Lin Qiong’s father, he felt that they might need two Yifeis to show up, so he had arranged everything in advance. It turned out this really ca into play.

Xu Yingying and Lin Qiong both kept asking the woman if she was romantically involved with him, while Xu Shanshan hit the nail on the head with her guess. Yet, Yifei didn’t want them to know he had another force at his disposal. He smiled and said, "She’s not my subordinate, but my comrade-in-arms. We used to be in the sa military unit. Later, she went abroad, and just recently, she returned to handle so matters. It just happened that we t up, and I was just taking precautions."

Xu Yingying continued to gaze at Yifei, saying, "Husband, must you hide everything from ?"

Yifei t Yingying’s look, one filled with grievance and unwillingness, which made him feel sowhat uneasy. Many people knew about his affairs, but not his wife, which truly wasn’t fair to Yingying.

Glancing at Lin Qiong, he said, "Alright, I’ll tell you. She really is my subordinate. I have a company abroad, and she works for it."

ntioning the rcenary organization would definitely be unacceptable to Yingying, but talking about a company seed fairly normal.

"You have a company abroad?" Lin Qiong exclaid in surprise, but then she realized it was completely normal for soone as impressive as Yifei to have a company overseas. Seeing Yingying’s reaction, it seed she knew less about Yifei than she did, which gave her an indescribable sense of pride.

Yifei nodded and explained, "Yes, I have a security company overseas, but it’s not really mine. The original owner died in an accident and asked

to manage it for him. He was my friend, and at the ti, I couldn’t refuse his request. After managing it for a while and getting it back on track, I left, and now I don’t even hold a share in it. But the people there still respect

a lot, and if I need anything, they would still listen to ."

Xu Shanshan imdiately said excitedly, "Brother-in-law, you’re really so cool."

Xu Yingying pursed her lips and asked, "Then why didn’t you tell ?"

Yifei replied with guilt, "Wife, I didn’t an to keep it from you. When I married you, I wanted to live an ordinary life, to be your husband, to say goodbye to the past. That’s why I didn’t tell you about my past."

Yingying felt more comfortable hearing this but still said with a slight sense of grievance, "Then you could’ve told

about your past as stories, right? Now, it makes

look like a fool, knowing nothing about your past."

Yifei nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, that was my mistake. When we get ho, I’ll tell you my story."

Lin Qiong and Xu Shanshan spoke in unison, "I want to hear too."

After saying so, Lin Qiong felt a bit embarrassed—after all, it wasn’t her place to listen to stories under the covers between a couple. But she couldn’t help feeling sowhat slighted, thinking why Yingying could hear it and not her, since she, too, was one of Yifei’s won.

Fortunately, Yingying didn’t dwell on the implications of their words. The fact that Yifei was willing to share his past with her ant that their relationship was taking a step forward. She reproached him lightly, "Now you’re my husband, and since I’ve accepted you, I naturally have to accept your past. Haven’t you seen that I’ve even accepted Yifei? What’s there not to accept?"

Yifei really wanted to hold Yingying in his arms, but with Lin Qiong and Xu Shanshan present, he had to refrain.

That night, they stayed in the hotel. Yifei and Yingying shared a room, while Little Yifei was taken away by Yingying’s mother, who was quite fond of her new granddaughter. After all, in front of others, she didn’t want anyone to know the child wasn’t Yingying’s biological daughter.

That night, Yifei also told Yingying quite a lot about his rcenary work, though only about so security tasks. In reality, the most frequent assignnts the rcenary organization took on were those with a very high level of danger, but he feared worrying her by discussing such matters.

All this was completely new to Yingying, as she had not been exposed to these kinds of stories before. She listened with great interest, mainly because she could learn more about Yifei.

The next day, Yifei and the others bid farewell. Yingying’s parents also returned ho. They had wanted to take Little Yifei with them, but Yingying didn’t agree, knowing full well how much her parents loved children. If Little Yifei went with them, she’d surely be spoiled, which wouldn’t be good for her developnt, so she firmly declined the suggestion.

This made the elderly couple sowhat dissatisfied, but seeing that both Yifei and Yingying had decided, they had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

On the drive back, Yingying and Little Yifei, due to not sleeping well the previous night, fell asleep in the backseat, leaving only Yifei and Xu Shanshan in front.

Xu Shanshan lit a cigarette for Yifei, who naturally accepted and started to smoke. Shanshan chuckled softly and asked, "Brother-in-law, is it good?"

Yifei coughed dryly, and said, "It’s the sa old flavor."

"You’re lying; it’s clearly smoother than usual."

Yifei knew he had to play along with Shanshan, or she wouldn’t let it go, and so he conceded, "Yes, it’s smoother than usual."

"What exactly makes it smoother?" Shanshan continued to press Yifei, quietly asking another question.

Yifei glared at Shanshan and replied vaguely, "It has the taste of your lips."

Only then did Shanshan laugh satisfactorily, humming a tune, quite pleased with herself.

"What are you two talking about? It sounds so happy," Yingying’s voice suddenly ca from the back.

Both Yifei and Shanshan were startled, with Shanshan swiftly turning around and saying with a grin, "I was just talking to my brother-in-law about that fake Yifei."

Yingying yawned and said, "You two really should keep it down, Yifei has just fallen asleep. Don’t wake her."

Xu Shanshan busied herself, "I know, go to sleep, we’ll call you when we get there."

"Then you should chat with your brother-in-law, don’t let him fall asleep. If he’s tired, he should pull over at a rest area for a break."

"I got it, go to sleep. My brother-in law won’t fall asleep that easily," she replied confidently.

After Xu Yingying agreed with a nod, she closed her eyes again and soon fell asleep. Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan weren’t lonely, and Xu Shanshan was even lively and chatty, resembling a happy Little Swallow.

Back at ho, Li Yifei went to pick up Chu Xiaoyao. After staying away for two days, the girl had no complaints. But now that Xu Yingying’s parents weren’t there and she wasn’t allowed to return, she surely wouldn’t stand for it.

On Monday, Xu Shanshan was set to go on a business trip, and she pouted all evening, clearly unhappy.

"You silly girl, going on a business trip isn’t a bad thing. Are you really that bothered by it?" Xu Yingying couldn’t quite understand Xu Shanshan’s behavior.

"Anyway, I don’t like going on trips now," mumbled Xu Shanshan, and then turned to Li Yifei, saying, "Brother-in-law, you can’t give

foot rubs for the next half-month, so you’ll have to rub them a lot tonight."

Li Yifei laughed, "Okay, okay, I’ll rub your feet. Don’t look so glum. If sothing cos up, just call , and I’ll be right there to help you."

"That’s why I like my brother-in-law the best," Xu Shanshan finally smiled happily.

With a stern expression, Xu Yingying cautioned, "I’m telling you, don’t have your brother-in-law co over for trivial matters, and don’t wear him out like that." She knew her sister all too well; if Xu Shanshan beca upset, she might indeed call Li Yifei over, and since he indulged her, he couldn’t refuse. It was important for Xu Yingying to set the record straight in advance.

With a light laugh, Xu Shanshan replied, "I know."

That night, Li Yifei gave Xu Shanshan a lengthy foot rub until she fell asleep on the couch, and only then did he return to the bedroom.

"This Shanshan is all grown up and still acts like a child," said Xu Yingying, shaking her head with a look of resignation. She would have struggled to stay awake now, if she hadn’t napped in the car during the day.

"Being able to keep such a mindset is also a form of happiness. Isn’t it true that people are happiest when they’re immature? It’s only when you grow up that you have so many worries."

"That’s true. Shanshan is indeed happier than ; I’ve never seen her worried about anything."

Holding Xu Yingying close, Li Yifei spoke softly, "Don’t work too hard. Take it easy with the company stuff. We’re not short on cash."

But at the mont, Xu Yingying was staring at Li Yifei with a smile, inquiring, "You, mister, have run a company before, so you shouldn’t be poor, right? Co clean, how much are you really worth?"

Li Yifei hesitated for a mont before replying, "I have tens of millions, but... I’ve left a portion for Yiyi."

Xu Yingying’s expression beca slightly stiff as she asked, "You gave so to soone else?"

"No, honey, I’m giving the rest to you," he assured.

Though Xu Yingying felt a bit uncomfortable, she wasn’t greedy for Li Yifei’s money. It was just that the idea of her husband’s money going to another woman didn’t sit well with her. Fortunately, Li Yifei had only given it to Su Yiyi, and that was sowhat justifiable since Su Yiyi was indeed important in Li Yifei’s heart.

"Oh, you’re still quite rich. I’m just realizing that I’ve snagged quite a bargain," she said more light-heartedly, and Li Yifei finally relaxed, replying, "What’s mine is yours, but I feel that the life we’re leading now is quite good. I’ve never thought about using that money. Having too much of it doesn’t necessarily make one happy."

Her concept of money had changed considerably from the ti when she had just graduated, when she was especially keen on earning. Now that she was earning well every year, she naturally cared less about it, and said, "If you don’t want to touch it, then let it be. Save it for Little Yifei. Oh, and Yunzhu’s child too. You, as a father, should take responsibility."

Li Yifei chuckled lightly and asked, "What about our own children?"

Blushing, Xu Yingying scolded playfully, "I haven’t considered having kids so soon. Husband, do you really want

to have a child too?"

"Not really. But as a couple, we’re going to have a child sooner or later."

"Then let’s wait a few more years. I want to struggle a bit more, not for money, but as a sort of personal life goal."

"Alright, whenever you’re ready, we’ll have one."

"Yeah, since we already have Little Yifei, and soon there’ll be one more, you won’t lack for children to take care of as a father," she reasoned.

Xu Yingying knew about Li Yifei’s financial situation but didn’t demand his money. Tightening the reins too much would only create a breach between them, so she instead chose to indulge him.
