Capítulo 1226: Chapter 466: Enigma (2)
“Mm, awake.”
Zhou Wang nodded, his gaze swept over Xiao An’s waist where a bit of a tattered cloth still hung, and he couldn’t help but pause for a mont. Then he gently caressed Xiao An’s back, his fingers brushing over the mottled marks.
“Do these places… hurt? I’m sorry, it seems I lost control.”
“It doesn’t hurt, it’s just that my skin is a bit unusual, it bruises with just a little pressure.”
Xiao An quickly shook her head to explain.
Zhou Wang noticed that in the daylight, Xiao An had returned to her sowhat reserved state, so he imdiately pulled her into his arms, soothing her softly.
“When it’s just the two of us, you don’t have to be so tense, you can even call by my na…”
“How could I do that?”
Zhou Wang just casually said it, and Xiao An, already on the verge of tears with emotion, tightly hugged Zhou Wang, shaking her head repeatedly, “I know my place, Mr. Zhou, you don’t need to worry about my feelings, occasionally, just holding you like this, I’m already very satisfied.”
Zhou Wang was a bit emotional for a mont. Who says good won are getting rarer in this world? Looking at those around him… there’s practically an abundance.
Without any sense of pretension, Zhou Wang gently patted Xiao An’s smooth back and thought for a mont before asking, “By the way, what’s the situation with your ex-husband now? Did you have contact after leaving the school yesterday?”
“He called , he said he wouldn’t stop anymore, that I could handle the procedures anyti. Also, he asked to say a few kind words in front of you, saying he’d offer everything he has as a gesture, just asking you to spare him…”
Xiao An repeated Du Huai’an’s original words without much emotion.
Clearly, Du Huai’an was really scared, and he knew that if Zhou Wang wanted to pursue the matter, it was far from over…
Zhou Wang pondered, “What do you think?”
“His affairs are already irrelevant to , so Mr. Zhou, you don’t need to consider , you can handle him however you wish.”
“Alright, what about your parents?”
“They…”
Talking about her parents, Xiao An let out a bitter chuckle, “After knowing your identity, their attitude suddenly reversed, and they’re now urging to quickly divorce Du Huai’an, also… encouraging to maintain my figure with exercise, and if I can have another child, it would be perfect.”
“…”
Zhou Wang was speechless upon hearing this.
Having a child?
No need to say who it’s with, Zhou Wang truly didn’t expect there to be parents so pragmatic, or perhaps in their eyes, Xiao An was rely a “tool.”
“As always, no matter what, your life is yours, you just follow your own thoughts. If there’s anything I can help with, just let know anyti.”
“Thank you, Mr. Zhou, by the way…”
Xiao An first expressed gratitude, then suddenly seed hesitant as if recalling sothing.
“What?”
“It’s just… do you really want to divorce Du Huai’an?”
“What’s that an?”
Zhou Wang was montarily puzzled and asked, “Why would a matter like this need my opinion?”
Xiao An’s face flushed red again, she stamred, “If… if you find it more exciting that way, I… I can remain married.”
What the…!
Recalling Xiao An’s actions from last night, Zhou Wang’s heart involuntarily raced a bit, causing him to cough several tis before asking in a seemingly helpless manner, “Is this really your thought, or… was it proposed by Du Huai’an?”
“It’s my thought, but… Du Huai’an would likely agree too.”
Xiao An said with so irony, “Before, he was afraid I’d take away his assets. As for now, he probably wouldn’t dare reject any of my requests.”
“You…”
For a mont, Zhou Wang didn’t know what to say, so he thought for a while and said, “You should decide this yourself, but I think you should mostly consider it for your daughter and yourself, don’t think about unnecessary things.”
“Mm, I got it, Mr. Zhou…”
Xiao An lowered her eyelids, obediently responded, but it wasn’t clear what she truly thought.
“Also, there’s one more thing.”
Zhou Wang rembered sothing else, “Your ex-husband gave Director Wang a total of five hundred thousand, he probably wouldn’t dare ask for it back due to its unclear origin, and it can’t be added to the school’s accounts, so I’ll have it directly transferred to yours…”
“Ah, Mr. Zhou, this…”
“Don’t decline, take it, it’s Du Huai’an’s money, which technically is also yours. After all, since you separated, you’re basically walking away empty-handed. Truly, when it’s ti to divorce, you deserve far more than this, but that’s for you to consider. Yet this money ought to be his reasonable compensation to you.”
Zhou Wang waved his hand, “Even when considering it for your daughter, you should accept this money.”
Hearing Zhou Wang say this, Xiao An no longer argued, just silently nodded and tightened her grip around Zhou Wang’s chest.
Her face turned slightly red as she glanced sideways at Zhou Wang, slowly sliding down against Zhou Wang’s mature body.
“Cough, cough, hold on… it’s getting late, let’s just talk.”
Seeing Xiao An again wanting to initiate sothing inappropriate, Zhou Wang quickly stopped her, not because he couldn’t, but such things indeed require moderation… yes, that’s it.
After Xiao An obediently climbed back up, not moving recklessly, Zhou Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he rembered sothing.
“By the way, what brand is your perfu? It’s quite nice?”
“It was a gift from Miss Jiang when we t, it’s her favorite brand, supposedly called Roja Dove, I don’t really understand, but they say one small bottle costs nearly ten thousand yuan, the perfu na is ‘Enigma,’ which ans ‘mystery’ in Chinese…”
“Mystery?”
Zhou Wang lightly chewed on the word.
It fits the sort of atmosphere Senior Sister Jiang might have.
No wonder, he could sll that familiar scent from Xiao An, now it seems like it’s the sa perfu that Senior Sister has been using.
Only the scent from Senior Sister has already blended with her other natural aromas, forming her unique cold scent, making it quite different from the scent on Xiao An.
“How’s Jiang Mo doing lately?”
“Miss Jiang has been quite busy, mainly due to her agent, Miss Linda’s, planning. Her first solo performance is about to be held in Beidou, she’s been sleeping very little every day, no matter how much I persuade her, but she seems to be managing.”
After Zhou Wang opened the topic, he lit a cigarette while leaning against the headboard, listening to Xiao An’s gentle voice narrating Jiang Mo’s recent status.
He actually knew a lot about it already, since no matter how busy Senior Sister Jiang was, she always reported to him on ti every day, detailing everything.
But from Xiao An’s words, Zhou Wang could hear so things he didn’t know yet, like before he left, he arranged for Xiao An to help Jiang Mo find a personal bodyguard, and now she found one, but through a friend’s recomndation, not a headhunter.
“Her friend? What other friends does she…”
Zhou Wang frowned for a mont before realizing, as if enlightened, “Is it a girl nad Peining?”
“Yes, that’s Miss Zhai, Mr. Zhou, you know her too?”
Xiao An nodded, “She often visits Miss Jiang and brings her various gifts… Miss Zhai’s deanor doesn’t seem to be that of an ordinary person.”
Zhou Wang tapped Xiao An’s smooth thighs, feeling quite curious.
He knew Jiang Mo had made a close friend in the Cultural Troupe, but had yet to et the person, though from Jiang Mo’s occasional remarks, the person’s identity indeed seed complicated.
…
In the courtyard of Yihua Alley No. 55, a girl with an extrely heroic appearance and upright posture pulled the dazed-looking Jiang Mo out, then pointed in disbelief at the gallery inside where Su Yajing was curiously exploring.
“Are you saying that girl is… your husband’s girlfriend?”
“Mm…”
“You… is Jiang Mo out of her mind, or am I, or is the world?”
Unable to comprehend the relationship, Zhai Peining couldn’t help but shout, “My Senior Sister Jiang, do you even listen to what you’re saying?!”
