Chapter 17 - The Love is as Deep as the Ocean (2)
Lu Li spoke her thoughts: “Because my husband is too lowkey, we shouldn’t stand together when taking a photo, and don’t walk together. You also won’t let me post about you on Weibo, for fear of being called out for showing off our love. You’re afraid that they will be too jealous of our sweetness and then do irrational things. But I think there’s nothing wrong with showing off every once in a while. You don’t want to be called as someone who likes to show off, but you can’t handle us being labeled as a fake couple, right?!”
Chi Chenyan was slightly startled and suddenly couldn’t speak.
Once again, he was impressed with Lu Li’s amazing brain circuit.
Lu Li nodded: “Why don’t I post on Weibo and say that we are them, and let those who talks nonsense to take a good look.”
Chi Chenyan hurriedly stopped her: “Don’t.”
Lu Li smiled arrogantly again: “No, I’m so ugly in that photo so I won’t admit that it’s me.”
Chi Chenyan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Li recalled Chi Chenyan’s profile in the photo, and then raised her head to look at him up close.
Lu Li said, “There are stars in my husband’s eyes.”
“Those who say that the stars are bright must have never seen my husband’s eyes.”
Chi Chenyan felt a little scratch in his heart, knowing that she was starting it again.
Lu Li: “How could there be such a superior features in this world? A Li wants to swing in her husband’s eyelashes, she wants to hide on her husband’s nose, and she wants to swim in her husband’s collarbone. A Li wants to…”
Chi Chenyan was thinking of telling her to stop talking when he suddenly felt a soft touch on his lips.
Lu Li straightened up and slightly kissed Chi Chenyan’s lips.
She kissed very lightly, stayed on his lips for a few seconds, and then let go. Her eyes were full of shyness, watery, and the corners of her eyes bloomed with peach blossoms.
Lu Li: “A Li wants to kiss her husband’s charming lips.”
Chi Chenyan was startled, as if he forgot to speak, and couldn’t help but recall the soft touch on his lips just now.
It is not that he and Lu Li have not kissed before.
The first time was at the wedding. After swearing to the priest, they kissed as the guests applauded, and then they silently counted the seconds in their heart, waiting for it to end.
Later, they also kissed when they were on the bed, full of lust.
Therefore, with this sudden kiss, Chi Chenyan couldn’t help but look at Lu Li again.
Lu Li looked shy, her eyes filled with love.
Chi Chenyan looked away, and just said: “It’s late, go to bed.”
Lu Li got off Chi Chenyan’s legs: “Okay~”
The next day was a weekend.
After Chi Chenyan returned to China, he finally found time to return to the Chi family’s villa.
Of course, he must bring Lu Li.
Chi Chenyan glanced at Lu Li in the cloakroom who was matching their outfits.
Only he and the doctor at the hospital knew about Lu Li’s current situation, and no one else knew anything about it.
Lu Li had changed her clothes. She deliberately wore a burgundy dress to match Chi Chenyan’s tie, and then came to hold Chi Chenyan’s arm: “Husband, let’s go.”
Chi Chenyan looked at Lu Li’s smile.
He also did not want Lu Li to make everyone know about her condition.
The two went downstairs where the driver was already waiting.
The car stopped at the gate of the Chi family’s mansion.
Different from their apartment at the heart of the city, Chi Mansion is an old house located at the quietest part of Jing’an District. It is a masterpiece of a famous British architect during the Republic o China era. Chi Mansion has been continuously maintained and renovated for over a century. Today, the plants in the garden at the entrance were still lush.
Before she married Chi Chenyan, Lu Li had a certain understanding of the Chi family.
Chi Chenyan’s parents died unexpectedly when he was sixteen ears old. Chi Chenyan was the only child and the successor to Shengjing Group.
It’s just that the story of the Chi family is much more exciting than her own. Although Chi Chenyan is an only child, there are several uncles and cousins who have been working on the different departments of Shengjing. When his parents died, Chi Chenyan was still studying and was not able to bear the responsibility of the entire company, so a few members of the Chi family were ready to move.
Fortunately, Chi Chenyan’s grandmother, who had lost her beloved son and daughter-in-law, came forward. The retired Grandma Chi regained the position as the Chairman of the Shengjing Group and suppressed a few members of the side branches who were ready to make their move. When Chi Chenyan graduated, she helped him sit at the position of Shengjing Technology’s president.
Grandma Chi had a problem three years ago. Chi Chenyan married Lu Li at that time. Although Grandma Chi has not stepped down as chairman, Chi Chenyan is in charge of everything in Shengjing.
In Lu Li’s impression, Grandma Chi has always been a very kind old lady. It is hard to imagine how the old woman decided to stabilize the problems when Chi Chenyan’s parents passed away.
