Every single reward increased Liu Qianqian’s favorability toward him, as if the system was forcibly trying to make sothing happen between them.
Couldn’t it give sothing more substantial?! He just liked money; getting more of it wouldn’t be a problem at all! If he encountered more girls like Liu Qianqian in the future, he had no idea how many romantic entanglents he’d end up with!
Could the system want to start a harem?! The thought was actually quite thrilling. But after thinking it over, Chen Zheng grew troubled. After all, "three won are enough for a play." If he really had that many won in his life, wouldn’t it turn into a palace drama?
As he thought about it, Chen Zheng grew increasingly vexed. As he left the poolside, he let out a sigh. This must be what it feels like to be blissfully miserable!
anwhile, Wei Zixuan watched his retreating figure, her heart growing tense. Did he really get angry?!
With that thought, Wei Zixuan hurriedly got out of the pool and followed Chen Zheng back to the living room. They were both in bathrobes. Chen Zheng was sitting on the couch, smoking a cigarette with a lancholy look on his face.
Wei Zixuan sat down beside him, took his hand, and said softly, "Chen Zheng, don’t be angry. I was just teasing you. Can’t a wife tease her husband anymore?"
Chen Zheng paused when he heard this, then quickly waved a hand. "It’s nothing, I wasn’t thinking about that."
With that, he stubbed out his cigarette and hugged Wei Zixuan.
Wei Zixuan kept pouting. After a long mont, she let out a soft sigh. "Actually, I’m not mad at you either. Even if sothing really did happen with that girl, I could accept it!"
Chen Zheng’s eyes widened instantly. "Wh... what’s going on?!"
Isn’t this a bit too open-minded? Is she encouraging to start a harem?!
Wei Zixuan pursed her lips. "n like you are bound to have more than one woman; that’s what my mother told . Besides, the more I try to control you, the more you’ll rebel, and that would just make things worse..."
Chen Zheng was utterly dumbfounded. Is my mother-in-law a little *too* open-minded?!
"So, what do you an by ’n like you’? Does your father also..."
Wei Zixuan puffed her cheeks. "What are you talking about? My dad certainly doesn’t!" After saying this, she exhaled. "Aren’t you an inheritor of the Traditional Wu Arts? You haven’t told , but I can find things out on my own!"
"When you went to the police station that day, did you spar with Li Yitong? She’s actually an inheritor of the Traditional Wu Arts, too! Ordinary people might not know, but my mother cos from one of those families!"
This really took Chen Zheng by surprise. He never expected that Wei Zixuan’s willingness to let him have a harem was because of the Traditional Wu Arts!
He scratched his head. "Since you’ve figured it out, I won’t hide it from you. I did indeed use the Traditional Wu Arts that day."
"Heh! I found that out a long ti ago!" Wei Zixuan puffed her cheeks again. "People like you, with such extraordinary abilities, are never restricted by the secular world."
However, Wei Zixuan suddenly grew serious. "But, Chen Zheng... while I don’t mind those things, there’s one condition: you can’t bring them ho, and you can’t go too far. I’m your wife, the one with the marriage certificate!"
A surge of complex emotions washed over Chen Zheng. He said nothing, simply holding Wei Zixuan tightly. She closed her eyes and leaned into his embrace.
In an atmosphere like this, if things had progressed naturally, the two of them would have made a smooth transition from the sofa to the bedroom in no ti. But things have a funny way of happening. Just as they were lost in their tender mont, with the air growing thick with affection...
GURGLE...
Hearing the sound, Chen Zheng imdiately felt awkward. He hadn’t had much for lunch, and after returning, he had only eaten so snacks while watching the movie. Now, he was starving!
I’m supposed to be an inheritor of the Traditional Wu Arts! How can I let my stomach grumble just from being a little hungry? I’ve ruined such a perfect atmosphere!
Wei Zixuan, however, covered her mouth and started laughing. "Chen Zheng, you’re too funny! Co on, let’s go eat out together!"
With that, Wei Zixuan went into the bedroom to change. She had used a flash delivery service to bring so of her clothes over the day before, just to make staying here more convenient.
Chen Zheng changed his clothes as well. Just as they were about to leave, he suddenly paused, looking at Wei Zixuan curiously. "Wait a minute... a second ago, on the couch, you took off your wet swimsuit, right?"
"Of course!"
His eyes went wide. Oh my god, so you were... completely bare underneath!
Wei Zixuan’s face flushed crimson. "Well, yeah! It’s not like I went into the bedroom to take it off before now!"
My... my hunger picked the worst possible ti to show up!
Chen Zheng rubbed his temples. He felt he had brought sha upon the inheritors of the Traditional Wu Arts. If he couldn’t even endure a little hunger, what great things could he possibly accomplish?
Wei Zixuan stuck her tongue out at him. "Let’s go, you scumbag! I’m hungry too, you know!"
Chen Zheng smiled helplessly and left the villa with Wei Zixuan.
The two found a private kitchen by the lake. For so reason, these high-end restaurants were always private kitchens that didn’t let you order à la carte. They only offered set nus with very few dishes. Chen Zheng ate his way through the entire set nu and still had to order an extra main course just to feel remotely full.
When the bill ca, with the damn service charge included, the two of them had spent over 7,000!
Making money off the rich is so easy!
After dinner, Chen Zheng dropped Wei Zixuan back at her house and then returned to the villa himself.
Lying on the sofa watching a movie, his heart grew restless. The night is so restless... maybe I should give Liu Qianqian a call? Chen Zheng scratched his head and picked up his phone from the coffee table. At the last second, however, he backed down. No! That would be too abrupt!
Torn by indecision, he soon fell asleep...
「anwhile.」
At the police station, Li Yitong was sitting by the window, staring at the leaves on the trees outside, lost in thought. Ever since that sparring session, she had been hoping for another round with Chen Zheng.
She scratched her hair. Agh... He has such amazing skills, so why doesn’t he like to spar?!
Then, she suddenly realized. Oh no, the Traditional Wu Arts! I completely forgot to tell my father about this!
Li Yitong imdiately dialed her father’s number and headed for the lounge area.
"What is it?"
