Chapter 121 Honeymoon Trip (2)
Chapter 121 Honeymoon Trip (2)
The two joked around for a while before getting dressed and going out for dinner. Yan Zuozuo found Chi Moqing's familiarity with the place strange and blinked, asking, "Have you been here before?"
Chi Moqing held her hand as they walked and said, "I used to come here often, so I'm quite familiar with this place."
Yan Zuozuo's eyes lit up, but she quickly pouted again, "Did you come with another woman? Tell me honestly!"
“Cai Qingqing is here.” Chi Moqing made no attempt to hide anything, which surprised Yan Zuozuo. Then she heard him say, “The place where she tried to scheme against me but ended up sleeping with another man by mistake is right here.”
Yan Zuozuo stared in disbelief, looking at Chi Moqing with some concern, only to see him remain calm and composed as he continued, "He hasn't come back since that incident."
"Are you sad?" Yan Zuozuo asked jokingly when she saw that he was alright.
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow: "If you're really sad, will you get jealous?"
Yan Zuozuo was annoyed. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said with certainty, "No way! You used to not come here when you were sad, but now you've come for me. I feel so great." As she spoke, she patted her round belly twice.
Chi Moqing looked at her amusedly and quickly stopped her, "Who would hit their own stomach when they're smug? My little lover is still inside."
Yan Zuozuo clicked her tongue twice and suddenly said, "Your little lover is hungry. Let's find a place to eat."
Chi Moqing affectionately pinched her nose. He wasn't not coming because he was sad; Cai Qingqing wasn't that charming enough to make him upset. It was just that he was getting busier and busier with work and didn't have time to come. This revisit was something he squeezed out of time, all to make Yan Zuozuo happy.
When you come to the seaside, you should eat seafood, but Yan Zuozuo is pregnant and can't eat it, so he took her to eat the local famous noodle specialty.
Yan Zuozuo smiled and looked around, chatting and laughing with Chi Moqing while waiting for the owner to bring over the noodles. No one noticed the woman at the table not far from them.
She smiled slightly, glancing at Yan Zuozuo and then at Chi Moqing. Her gaze wasn't intense, but she gripped her phone tightly. Yan Zuozuo, looking like a little bird nestled against someone, tilted her head and chatted happily with Chi Moqing, her eyes crinkling, appearing very happy.
She pursed her lips, quietly withdrew her gaze, turned her back to them, picked up her bag, and left. Years ago, Yan Zuozuo's mother killed her own mother, leaving her a motherless child; now her mother had actually married her father, while she herself was fortunate enough to marry Chi Moqing. Why did all the good things happen to Yan Zuozuo and her mother, while her mother could only rest in peace?
Mu Yaoqian clenched her fists, feeling a surge of intense hatred rising in her heart. She walked quickly, not wanting to see Yan Zuozuo's happy face, which would make her unable to resist rushing over to punish her without restraint.
While Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing were deeply in love, Lu Zhitu, upon learning that Chi Ran was going to take wedding photos with Lu Yaoyuan, was in an uproar. He kept calling Chi Moqing, but he had left his phone at the hotel and hadn't heard the calls at all.
Immediately afterward, Yan Zuozuo's phone rang. Presumably, Lu Zhitu couldn't find Chi Moqing and had to call Yan Zuozuo for help. Yan Zuozuo glanced at the caller ID curiously, "Brother Lu?"
"Zuo Zuo, is Chi Ran going to take wedding photos with you guys? Where are you? Tell me quickly!" Lu Zhitu was going crazy. Ever since he found out about Chi Ran and Lu Yaoyuan, he had been on the verge of exploding, as if he would explode at any moment.
The people in the company had never seen Lu Zhitu in such a terrifying state, and they all scurried away. In their eyes, the usually calm and composed CEO must have forgotten to take his medication, otherwise how could he have acted so erratically?
Yan Zuozuo, not knowing what was going on, could only hand the phone to Chi Moqing. Upon hearing Chi Moqing's voice, Lu Yaoyuan went berserk again, yelling, "Tell me where you are! I won't allow Xiao Ran to take wedding photos with Lu Yaoyuan!"
As he spoke, he grabbed his keys and walked outside. He used to be very concerned about his image, but now he looked so disheveled that he was practically a wild man.
Chi Moqing gave the address, and soon heard the sound of a car engine. He frowned and said, "Drive carefully, they haven't arrived yet. Don't let anything happen."
This was the first time Chi Moqing had ever seen Lu Zhitu act so recklessly, and she was somewhat apprehensive. However, Lu Zhitu didn't say anything more, but simply hung up the line and sped off. He was like a race car driver, weaving left and right, not slowing down even in areas with electronic surveillance, practically racing against time with his life on the line.
Yan Zuozuo roughly understood what had happened. Although their plan for a world of just the two of them had completely failed, it would be worth it if she could see Chi Ran find happiness.
After dinner, they returned to the hotel. Chi Moqing saw about twenty missed calls on his phone, all from Lu Zhitu. He narrowed his eyes and deleted them immediately. Now she's worried? Where was she before? Did she think his sister was someone to be summoned and dismissed at will?
Yan Zuozuo washed her hands and came out of the bathroom, still worried about Lu Zhitu. "The sound of his driving is terrifying. I hope nothing bad happens to him."
Chi Moqing's lips curled slightly: "He used to drive cars when he was young, he'll be fine, don't worry about it." With that, he called the front desk and booked another room. Although he was unhappy with Lu Zhitu's previous actions towards Chi Ran, the man was already here, and he couldn't very well sleep on the streets. Even if he were willing, he was afraid his wife would be too soft-hearted to agree.
Yan Zuozuo was tired after walking all afternoon, so Chi Moqing coaxed her to sleep, gazing at her peaceful little face with a smile on his face.
When Lu Zhitu arrived, Yan Zuozuo was already fast asleep. Chi Moqing opened the door for her and saw that he looked terrified. She asked anxiously, "Do you know where Xiao Ran is? I called her but she didn't answer, and she didn't reply to my texts. I don't know anything about her except that she was taking wedding photos."
Afraid that he would wake Yan Zuozuo, Chi Moqing pushed him out the door and then gently closed the door, saying, "They may not arrive for another two days. As for where Xiao Ran is now, I don't know either."
"Then call her! She doesn't like people who are far away. Are you just going to stand by and watch her be unhappy?" Lu Zhitu was in a state of frantic frustration the whole time.
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow, her gaze unusually serious as she looked at him. "Yaoyuan loves her very much. If he isn't Xiaoran's happiness, how can I expect anything from you, who only rejects her and hurts her?"
Lu Zhitu stiffened, pursed his lips and said, "I swear, I swear I will do everything I can to be good to Xiao Ran. I love her, I will make her happy. Please help me."
Chi Moqing looked at him indifferently. Suddenly, his phone vibrated in his pocket. It was a message from Chi Ran, saying that she would arrive first thing tomorrow morning. She also sent a picture of herself making a face.
He handed his phone directly to Lu Zhitu and said calmly, "I hope you're not just acting on impulse, but have really thought this through. Xiao Ran may seem carefree and doesn't care about anything, but she's fragile inside and can't withstand your repeated hurt. If you're just acting impulsively, go to sleep now and leave before she comes tomorrow."
"I didn't act on impulse!" Lu Zhitu retorted fiercely. "I've thought it through, I've thought it through very clearly. Feelings can't be compromised or exchanged. I love Xiao Ran, and even if it's unfair to Yao Yuan, I won't give Xiao Ran to him again. Let him hate me if he wants."
Chi Moqing stared intently at him with her sharp, eagle-like eyes, as if to confirm that he wasn't lying. Finally, she said, "Since you've made your decision, you can do whatever you want, but I have only one condition: you mustn't hurt Xiao Ran. If she's truly determined to be with Lu Yuanyao, I hope you can grant her wish."
Lu Zhitu clenched his fists. He had no idea what Chi Moqing had said. He was only thinking about how Chi Ran would come tomorrow, and no matter what decision she made, he would take her back.
"This is the key card for the next room. Go in and sleep now. Think things through, and we can talk about it when Xiao Ran arrives tomorrow." Chi Moqing gave the instruction, and Lu Zhitu followed suit. Only after Lu Zhitu entered the room did Chi Moqing return to Yan Zuozuo's side. Whether it was Lu Yaoyuan or Lu Zhitu, he would support Chi Ran's choice.
Yan Zuozuo was sleeping soundly, her mouth slightly open, making cute and innocent snores. He smiled, picked her up, and felt grateful to God for sending her to his side, sparing him from those ups and downs of hardship.
Perhaps his career won't be so smooth sailing, and there might even be a crisis. But as long as she's by his side, he has nothing to fear; even if he loses everything, he can start over.
She is the only one he cannot lose.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips. Perhaps feeling ticklish, Yan Zuozuo, who was fast asleep, moved her eyebrows, glanced at the time groggily, and asked in a hoarse voice, "It's already dawn, hasn't Brother Lu come yet?"
Chi Moqing smiled and said, "We've arrived. I'm sleeping next door. Xiao Ran is also coming today. It's still early, so you can sleep a little longer so you'll have the energy to take our wedding photos."
Yan Zuozuo rubbed her eyes: "Can the wedding photos still be taken?" If Lu Yaoyuan and Lu Zhitu have a huge fight over Chi Ran, this plan might have to be changed.
Seeing her furrowed brows, Chi Moqing reached out and gently smoothed them out. "Don't worry about them, let's just film our own stuff."
Yan Zuozuo chuckled softly: "Is that how an older brother should talk?"
“I’m just her brother. She should be responsible for her own life. The one I’m responsible for is you, our child, and our family.” He stretched out his long arm, pulled her into his embrace, let her rest her head on his arm, and whispered.
Yan Zuozuo nodded and gave a delicate yawn. Chi Moqing coaxed her, "Let's continue sleeping."
Yan Zuozuo nodded and nestled in his arms, falling into a deep sleep once more. When she woke up again, she saw a vivid and sensual scene: Chi Moqing, shirtless and wearing only a towel around his waist, stood handsomely in front of the mirror brushing his teeth.
Yan Zuozuo didn't rush to get up. Instead, she lay on her side on the bed, quietly looking at the man in front of her. His handsome profile, perfect figure, and strong muscles made her face flush red again as she recalled the sweaty movements they made in bed.
"Mrs. Chi, if you've had your fill of enjoying the show, may you get up and have breakfast?" Chi Moqing said with a smile, wiping the toothpaste foam from the corner of his mouth.
Now, Yan Zuozuo's face turned even redder. She covered her face with the blanket, denying that she had just been thinking about him.
After tidying up, Chi Moqing walked over with amusement, pulled back her blanket and laughed, "If you don't get up now, you'll miss breakfast."
Yan Zuozuo reluctantly poked her head out, pouting, and said, "You go out first, then I'll get up."
"How can that be? I still need to help the Empress Dowager change and wash up." With that, he picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.
Yan Zuozuo exclaimed in surprise and playfully slapped him, "You're so annoying, you scared me to death!"
Chi Moqing burst into laughter.
While taking a shower, Yan Zuozuo said, "I don't know if Xiao Ran and the others have arrived yet. If we really can't film, then so be it. Let's just say we came here for a vacation."
"My wife is so generous." With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
