Chapter 361 Chi Moqing is hers
In the Western restaurant, Chi Moqing asked, "Wife, where would you like to go after dinner?"
Yan Zuozuo took a big bite of steak: "I haven't decided yet. I'll tell you when I've thought it through."
Chi Moqing smiled and nodded, reaching out to wipe the stains from the corner of her mouth.
The handsome man and beautiful woman, their tender and considerate interactions, quickly attracted many people's attention. Especially the beautiful woman, seeing Chi Moqing's dashing and affectionate appearance, her eyes soon filled with hearts.
Yan Zuozuo felt helpless. Most of the heart-shaped bubbles that landed on Chi Moqing turned into sharp swords of jealousy piercing her, making her pout unhappily, "A handsome man is a source of trouble!"
Chi Moqing was taken aback: "Huh?"
"It's all your fault! Look how many girls are staring at you." She said through gritted teeth, pinching his waist. "I'm jealous. Why don't so many men look at me?"
Chi Moqing had been enjoying his wife's jealous gaze, but upon hearing these words, his face immediately darkened. "You're mine, who dares to look at you!"
puff!
Yan Zuozuo rolled her eyes. Did her husband even hear the point? But, people have eyes to look at, and it's a bit too domineering for President Chi to even interfere in this.
But seeing his jealous look, Yan Zuozuo actually felt warm inside, especially since his gaze was so affectionate. The girls around them were practically spitting fire with jealousy, and her vanity was greatly satisfied.
As they ate and chatted, Yan Zuozuo suddenly thought of their two little ones at home. "Honey, isn't it irresponsible of us to leave the kids behind and sneak out like this?"
Oh, you even have a child now? The pairs of peering eyes around you looked on with longing.
"It's okay, we have a nanny at home. My biggest responsibility is to take good care of my wife." As he spoke, Chi Moqing put a piece of steak into her mouth, his doting smile was so sweet it was almost unbearable.
Yan Zuozuo wolfed down her steak, pouting as she said, "Be careful the kids don't treat you well in the future."
Chi Moqing chuckled and reached out to take her hand. "Having you by my side is enough." The children will eventually grow up and start their own families, but the only one who can accompany her through this life is this charming little wife in front of her.
Her hand rubbed against his palm, tickling him. Yan Zuozuo's face flushed slightly, and she noticed the increasingly envious looks from the girls around her. Her little tail wagged higher and higher as she cut a large piece of beef and stuffed it into her mouth, then lifted her head and glared back.
There's no use looking anymore, Chi Moqing belongs to her alone!
"Wife, something else has gotten into your eyes," Chi Moqing whispered.
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback: "What is that?"
“Anything but me.” He said it plaintively, leaving Yan Zuozuo stunned. “Uh!”
"My eyes are only for you, but your eyes keep looking at other things." Chi Moqing's voice was low and somewhat resentful. "Is it because I'm not as attractive as others?"
Yan Zuozuo felt wronged, but she blinked and quickly understood.
Oh! My husband is jealous.
Her heart felt even sweeter, and she forked a piece of her steak and held it in front of Chi Moqing. "Husband, I was wrong. Please forgive me."
Chi Moqing smiled, took a bite, and then held the fork up to her. "Alright, I'll be magnanimous this once and forgive you. I'll eat too."
Yan Zuozuo opened her mouth and ate the piece that Chi Moqing had left. As she chewed, she said, "The taste is not bad, but it is far inferior to my husband's cooking. It's at most a 60 out of 100."
Upon hearing this, Chi Moqing's expression softened even more. "If you like it, I'll make it for you every day from now on."
"Then let's have a candlelight dinner at home tomorrow," Yan Zuozuo said, her bright eyes wide open.
Chi Moqing nodded indulgently, making Yan Zuozuo feel even sweeter.
Just as the two were finishing their meal, Chi Moqing's phone rang. It was Major General Zhan calling. His eyes turned cold, and he said to Yan Zuozuo, "You eat first, I'll take this call." With that, he walked towards the door.
Yan Zuozuo felt that Chi Moqing had been acting very mysteriously lately, and it seemed like he was making more and more phone calls that he couldn't do in front of her. She looked worriedly out the window at his tall figure, her brows furrowed.
Outside the restaurant, Chi Moqing had just answered the phone when she heard Major General Zhan's voice on the other end, "President Chi, long time no see, how have you been lately?"
“Very good.” Chi Moqing said simply, without intending to say more.
"That's good, that's good. I'm very satisfied with the gift President Chi sent last time. I haven't thanked you yet."
Major General Zhan was referring to the incident where Leng Yan's subordinates were captured last time. Chi Moqing's lips curled up slightly, "I suppose it's a matter of returning the favor."
"President Chi, you're being too polite, hahaha." Major General Zhan laughed a few times, paused, touched his nose and said, "I heard that President Chi met with that kid Shikun today. Young people are hot-blooded, so please be lenient with him, President Chi. If he does anything wrong, please forgive him for the sake of our long-standing friendship."
As expected, it was all for Huang Shikun. Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow. He had long heard that Huang Shikun's arrogance was inextricably linked to this Major General Zhan. Now it seemed the rumors were true; this brother-in-law was truly going to great lengths for his brother-in-law.
"Why would Major General Zhan say that?"
General Zhan was taken aback by Chi Moqing's question. After a pause, he said, "I heard that kid Shikun had a conflict with President Chi today. President Chi, we are all people who don't stand on ceremony, let's just let this small matter go. That kid doesn't know his place, I apologize to President Chi on his behalf..."
"Major General Zhan, you flatter me too much. After all, you are officials and I am a businessman. As a businessman, I have great respect for those in officialdom and would never dare to cause a conflict. However, I am apprehensive about receiving this call from you at this time. I am having dinner with my wife, so I will not disturb you any longer." Before Major General Zhan could speak, Chi Moqing hung up the phone, sneered, and turned to enter the restaurant.
Major General Zhan was utterly dumbfounded. He slammed the phone down on the table, wishing he could drag Huang Shikun over and give him a good beating. Chi Moqing's tone made it clear that he wasn't going to swallow this insult.
Having known Chi Moqing for so many years, I've known this man for his decisiveness and unwavering resolve, displaying the demeanor of a great general. He's never been one to fuss over trivial matters. However, there's only one situation that will make him absolutely ruthless…
That was about meeting his wife!
Everyone who knows him knows how much Chi Moqing cares about his wife. Heaven knows who Huang Shikun could have messed with but instead went and provoked Chi Moqing's wife. He's practically asking for death!
Major General Zhan slammed his fist on the table. He'd pulled so many strings to get Huang Shikun to take this case, spent so much money, and incurred so many favors, all to use this opportunity to win over Chi Moqing and later use him to climb the ranks. Who knew this idiot would cause such a mess on their very first meeting and completely offend him!
Back in the day, Chi Moqing was incredibly brave and invincible, with numerous military achievements, and he rose to the rank of lieutenant general at a young age. If it weren't for a little-known incident back then, who knows what position he would be in now.
Although this man was a retired soldier who went into business, strangely, he had always been secretly protected. While Huang Shikun didn't know the reason, he was certain this man was no ordinary person, and there was likely another reason behind the investigation. If Huang Shikun could get connected with Chi Moqing, it would be a huge boost to any career advancement the young man desired.
But that idiot offended Chi Moqing just like that, he was really stupid!
Major General Zhan felt like he was about to have a splitting headache, so he finally called Huang Shikun and said, "Shikun, why don't you find some time to apologize to President Chi?"
"Apologize? Brother-in-law, are you kidding me? It's Chi Moqing who needs my help, not the other way around. You want me to apologize? No way!" Huang Shikun yelled on the other end of the phone.
In his eyes, Chi Moqing was nothing more than someone who would be sent to prison sooner or later, while he was now the one who held Chi Moqing's life and death in his hands. Asking him to apologize was no joke.
Major General Zhan was well aware of Huang Shikun's intentions, but the problem was that things weren't that simple. He couldn't reason with him, which only added to his headache. If he had known this kid was so stupid, he shouldn't have used his connections to get him involved in the case.
“Shikun, just listen to your brother-in-law’s advice. Although Chi Moqing is under investigation, he’s definitely not as simple as you think. I’m your brother-in-law, would I ever harm you? Let me tell you, getting on good terms with Chi Moqing will definitely benefit you in the future.”
"Rely on him?" Huang Shikun scoffed. "Someone I almost sent to prison, you want me to rely on him? Brother-in-law, don't be ridiculous."
"What's wrong with you, kid? Do what I tell you to do. You just arrived in S City, so don't cause me any trouble!" General Zhan's temper flared up again. If they weren't far away, he would have loved to slap the kid a few times.
"Brother-in-law, you're boosting the enemy's morale while diminishing our own! I won't listen to you this time!" With that, Huang Shikun abruptly cut off the call, cursing under his breath. "You really think you're something special? If it weren't for my sister's sake, would I even have the right to yell at you?" What a spineless bastard! One Chi Moqing and he's scared him half to death? A soldier, indeed! What a disgrace! He holds Chi Moqing's life and death in his hands now. Ask him to apologize? That's a pipe dream.
Huang Shikun slammed his hand on the table. Just then, Li Minghua walked in. Seeing Huang's expression, he roughly understood what had happened and asked with a smile, "Who is so bold as to make our Assistant Huang so angry?"
"Chairman Li, you flatter me. I'm just brooding over it. We're soldiers, after all, while Chi Moqing is just a bandit. Why should we have to put up with his rudeness? I'm fine with it myself, but I feel sorry for Chairman Li. Hehe."
Li Minghua glanced at him, thinking that this kid really wouldn't admit defeat until he was faced with a fatal mistake. He sneered inwardly, but kept a cheerful expression on his face. "That's true, but I'm getting old and don't plan to offend anyone before I retire. You young people are still full of vigor, so I'll have to trouble Assistant Huang to handle this matter with the Chi family."
Huang Shikun was taken aback, not expecting Li Minghua to say that. He immediately became spirited and said, "Chairman Li, you flatter me. But when it comes to serving the country and eliminating treacherous officials, I, Huang, will definitely do my best. You can rest assured!"
Just thinking about how the massive Chi Group would roll into his pocket after he got rid of Chi Moqing made Huang Shikun grin from ear to ear. Naturally, he had to "handle this matter properly."
