"Oh man, I didn’t sleep well last night and had dreams again. I need to catch up on so sleep quickly or I’ll start feeling drowsy later!"
Liu Zheng yawned, then got up, dressed neatly, and left the room.
After going downstairs, Liu Zheng arrived at the dining table.
He saw three dishes laid out on the table, and his eyes lit up instantly.
"Wow, what a feast!"
He was greatly surprised.
All these dishes were his favorites.
"This is sweet and sour ribs, this is hot and sour shredded potatoes, and this is stir-fried pineapple. It’s so rich; it’s just too much."
Liu Zheng remarked.
He made a round in the kitchen and eventually ca to the living room.
When he saw a stunning beauty sitting on the sofa, he was montarily stunned.
Chen Fei’er was wearing a black professional suit with a deep red skirt draped over it, her feet in high heels, making her look sharp and capable.
This was the second ti Liu Zheng saw Chen Fei’er dressed in professional attire, the first ti being right after Chen Fei’er had graduated.
Back then, Chen Fei’er was like a blooming rose, with seductive fragrance, making hearts flutter.
But today’s Chen Fei’er appeared sowhat more mature and alluring, yet still retained a bit of youthful naivety.
Seeing this, Liu Zheng’s eyes burned even brighter, nearly overco with the urge to pounce on her right there on the sofa.
However, he restrained himself.
"Good morning, Sister Fei’er!"
Liu Zheng greeted Chen Fei’er with a smile.
"Morning!"
Chen Fei’er responded with a smile.
Liu Zheng’s gaze remained fixed on Chen Fei’er’s body, like a starving wolf eyeing a fresh and juicy lamb.
"Ahem!"
Feeling uncomfortable under Liu Zheng’s gaze, Chen Fei’er coughed lightly and then asked with feigned calm, "Do you have any business to discuss today? Can we talk?"
"Talk about business..."
Upon hearing Chen Fei’er’s words, a flash of disappointnt crossed Liu Zheng’s eyes.
But he still kept smiling, "Of course! Sister Fei’er, ask anything you want, I shall be an open book!"
"It’s like this."
Chen Fei’er started, "As you know, so of my relatives and friends lead quite lively lives, they often gamble, and have racked up a significant debt. I would like your help to bail them out."
With a smile, Liu Zheng responded, "Sister Fei’er, no problem at all, I’ll go demand the money from them right now."
"Yeah, thank you for the trouble."
"It’s no trouble at all!"
Liu Zheng laughed, and then he left.
Watching Liu Zheng’s departing figure, Chen Fei’er’s gaze turned icy.
"Hmph, I’ll spare you for now. But if you ever look at with those eyes again, don’t bla for being unkind!"
Chen Fei’er’s lips were pressed tightly together.
"By the way, Liu Zheng..."
Just as Chen Fei’er was about to say sothing, her phone suddenly rang.
She looked at the caller ID—it was her husband—and she imdiately frowned.
Her husband calling at this hour, could sothing have happened?
"Hello, honey, where are you?"
"I’m at the office. Why aren’t you answering your phone? Is your phone out of battery?"
Chen Fei’er’s husband’s voice ca from the other end of the phone, but his tone was sowhat strange.
With furrowed brows and in a puzzled tone, Chen Fei’er said, "Oh, it’s nothing. My phone ran out of battery, so I didn’t hear it. Honey, is there sothing wrong?"
"Fei’er, our child is sick again and needs a large amount of blood plasma. Co over quickly; I really need blood plasma now, so..."
Chen Fei’er’s husband began to speak.
"Alright, I’ll head to the hospital right away."
Upon hearing her husband’s words, Chen Fei’er’s expression turned very serious.
"Okay, hurry up!"
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.
Chen Fei’er glanced at the phone screen, her face growing increasingly grim.
"Really just a bunch of useless people, can’t even take care of a child!"
Having said that, she quickly changed her clothes and rushed out the door.
...
At that mont, Liu Zheng had already arrived at the entrance of Lin Corporation, just as Lin Qian’er walked out of the parking garage.
"Liu Zheng!?"
Seeing Liu Zheng, Lin Qian’er was visibly excited.
"Lin Qian’er, long ti no see."
A hint of a smile appeared on Liu Zheng’s face.
"It’s been such a long ti since we last t, I thought you had forgotten about !"
Lin Qian’er playfully stuck out her tongue, then looped her arm through Liu Zheng’s as they headed towards the parking spot.
"Hehe..."
Liu Zheng chuckled, then said, "Of course not, you’re so beautiful, who could forget you?"
"Giggle... you’re always so sweet-talking."
Lin Qian’er covered her mouth and giggled, her face beaming with happiness.
...
After chatting for a bit, Lin Qian’er had Liu Zheng get into the car.
"Where are you taking ?"
"To my place, of course. Where else did you think?"
"But... I’m no longer the wife of the chairman of Lin Corporation, are you still taking back?"
"Of course!"
Liu Zheng said with a smile, "You’re my girlfriend, what’s wrong with taking you back ho?"
Lin Qian’er said with a grin, "You big rascal."
"Heh heh, it’s like the saying goes, ’A man chasing a woman is like climbing a mountain, a woman chasing a man is like piercing through a layer of gauze!’"
Talking and joking, the two made their way to Lin Qian’er’s ho.
"Ding Dong~"
Liu Zheng pressed the doorbell.
"Coming!"
Chen Fei’er opened the door, then greeted Liu Zheng with a beaming smile.
She was dressed in a white blouse, a black jacket, black trousers, and a pair of black knee-high boots.
"You’re here?"
Chen Fei’er looked at Liu Zheng, her eyes filled with joy.
"Of course I’m here, but... it’s so hot out, why are you dressed so lightly?"
Liu Zheng frowned as he saw how scantily Chen Fei’er was dressed.
"It’s okay."
Chen Fei’er said with a smile, "Although it’s a bit hot right now, wearing these clothes helps keep cool and also protects from mosquito bites!"
Liu Zheng heard this and chuckled, then entered the living room.
"Huh, why hasn’t anyone gone out shopping?"
Liu Zheng looked around and realized that there wasn’t a single person in the house.
"My parents are on a business trip, and my mom went traveling with her sisters."
"I see!"
Liu Zheng nodded thoughtfully.
At that mont, Chen Fei’er handed Liu Zheng a bottle of water from the kitchen, "Here, drink up!"
Liu Zheng took the water and drank a big gulp.
"Wow, that’s refreshing!"
He exclaid in appreciation.
Seeing him enjoy it so much, Chen Fei’er couldn’t help but laugh and said, "I’ll go get you so water!"
"No need!"
Liu Zheng stopped Chen Fei’er and went to the kitchen himself.
He opened the fridge and took out a can of beer.
Chen Fei’er stood at the door, her beautiful eyes watching Liu Zheng as he skillfully poured water and flipped things around, her smile growing wider.
"Liu Zheng, you can cook too?"
Hearing this, Liu Zheng stopped what he was doing and looked at Chen Fei’er, "What, you think I’m pretty amazing?"
"Amazing, incredibly so!"
Chen Fei’er said with a laugh.
She had personally witnessed Liu Zheng’s culinary skills.
Having stayed at Liu Zheng’s place for a few years, Liu Zheng’s skills had gradually improved, not only in cooking delicious dishes but also in making fine drinks.
All this she had seen with her own eyes.
Watching Liu Zheng busily moving around, Chen Fei’er’s smile deepened.
...
"Co, try the braised pork I made!"
Liu Zheng brought a plate of braised pork to the table.
"It slls so good!"
"Of course, it took a whole night to make this."
Liu Zheng said with a smile, "I am quite a diligent person."
"Mhm, you’ve got potential, keep it up!"
Chen Fei’er gave a thumbs up, then picked up a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks and started eating.
"Mmm... delicious, it’s so good, even better than what our chef makes at ho."
