Chapter 181 My Husband is Cow Dung
Chapter 181 My Husband is Cow Dung
Fisher chatted with them for a few minutes, then glanced at the time and said, "It's getting late. The new collection launch is in a couple of days, so I need to get back early. Zuo Zuo, get some rest. I'll have the whole thing recorded and show it to you."
"Okay, thank you, Director."
Fisher raised an eyebrow: "Call me Master."
Yan Zuozuo smiled awkwardly, stole a glance at Chi Moqing, and whispered, "Thank you, Master."
"good."
After Fisher left, Chi Moqing looked at Yan Zuozuo with a strange expression, as if he was deep in thought.
Yan Zuozuo looked at him, shrank her neck, and asked, "Are you unhappy that Fisher came to see me?"
Chi Moqing seemed somewhat annoyed: "I don't like him."
So straightforward?
Yan Zuozuo was also helpless. She pursed her lips and said, "We're just colleagues, at most mentor and apprentice. Don't overthink it. I assure you, in my heart, my husband is definitely the one I love the most."
Chi Moqing snorted coldly: "So there's a second love, a third love?"
"..." Yan Zuozuo's lips twitched. "I love the baby too, I love Mom and Dad, I love our family."
Chi Moqing seemed slightly satisfied, and flicked her forehead, saying, "You have a sweet tongue."
"What? I was just telling the truth," Yan Zuozuo pouted, grumbling in dissatisfaction. After a while, she suddenly exclaimed, "Ah, my theory exam..."
"The theory exam is still a few days away, I reckon you can make it after you're discharged from the hospital. It's okay, even if you don't make it, you can take it again next time," Chi Moqing said with a smile.
Yan Zuozuo felt a pang of sorrow. She had finally made up her mind to take the driving test, but then this happened. It was truly tragic.
"That's all I can do. I can use this time in the hospital to do more practice problems." Basically, she's a fairly optimistic young woman.
"My wife is really hardworking." Chi Moqing gently stroked her hair with his long fingers and chuckled, "Don't put pressure on yourself. My wife is so smart, she will definitely pass the exam on her first try."
Yan Zuozuo smiled and unconsciously leaned against his broad chest. "My husband is so outstanding, of course I have to be smart too, otherwise everyone will say that the beautiful flower is stuck in cow dung, and I am that pile of cow dung."
Yan Zuozuo sounded pitiful, and Chi Moqing immediately laughed, putting his arm around her and saying, "Even if you say your husband is cow dung, he's still cow dung. My wife will always be a beautiful flower."
Yan Zuozuo felt a sweet warmth in her heart as she hugged Chi Moqing.
Many people came to visit her after hearing about her car accident. Chi's mother also called and insisted on coming, but Yan Zuozuo quickly refused, "Mom, I'm really fine. You see, the child has already suffered a lot, so don't worry about me. The doctor said I'm fine. It's just that Mo Qing insisted that I stay in the hospital for observation, so don't worry."
Still worried, Chi's mother insisted that Chi Moqing answer the phone. Only after Chi Moqing had explained most of what Yan Zuozuo had said did she feel relieved and not come over, but she told Chi Moqing to take good care of Yan Zuozuo.
Just as she finished hanging up, the door to the ward opened again, and Park Sun-hee came in carrying flowers and fruit. Yan Zuozuo wasn't sure if she was seeing things, but she felt that Park Sun-hee's gaze was strange. She remembered what Chi Moqing had said and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
If Park Sun-hee simply liked Chi Mo-ching, she could accept it; after all, her husband was so outstanding that it was inevitable that many people would like him. But if Park Sun-hee had ulterior motives, she felt afraid.
What kind of woman could possibly hide her past so deeply? Yan Zuozuo couldn't figure it out. But whatever Park Sun-hee's purpose was, she'd better not target her family, otherwise she would protect them even at the cost of her life.
Fu Zixin came to see Yan Zuozuo, and there was a swollen patch on her face, which startled Yan Zuozuo. "What happened to you?"
Fu Zixin touched her face and said angrily, "I've never seen such a shameless man before. Don't let me see him again, or I'll beat him to death!"
Yan Zuozuo thought she was talking about Su Kang, and asked with wide eyes, "Did you two fight again?"
*Facepalm*, weren't they getting a divorce? How can they still be arguing?
Fu Zixin pursed her lips, coughed twice, and said, "It wasn't Su Kang. Come to think of it, he was the one who helped me..."
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, becoming even more curious, "What exactly happened?"
It turns out that Fu Zixin's blind date was a man with a girlfriend, and that girlfriend was a real shrew. They were caught on the blind date, and the shrew not only beat the man up but also slapped Fu Zixin. Luckily, Su Kang arrived in time; otherwise, Fu Zixin's life might have been taken by that burly woman's slap.
Yan Zuozuo's face darkened: "So what's going on between you and Su Kang now?"
Fu Zixin glanced at the doorway, coughed awkwardly twice, and said, "Someone shamelessly uses the excuse of protecting his daughter to stay at my place. What can I do?"
Yan Zuozuo chuckled softly, seemingly understanding what was going on. It seems the hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress trope is timeless, no matter the era.
Seeing her malicious smile, Fu Zixin almost slapped her. However, considering that she was injured, she spared her life.
Not long after, the door to the ward opened, and Su Kang entered carrying fruit. His expression was somewhat grave, and his first words were "I'm sorry." Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. She was never an unreasonable woman. Although Su Fei was his sister, she had nothing to do with Su Kang, and she didn't need to give him a hard time, especially since he was Fu Zixin's man.
She gestured for him to sit down: "If you want some water, pour it yourself. I'm not able to move, so I won't bother you."
"No need, we just ate," Su Kang said, glancing around. "President Chi isn't here?"
"He went out on something, he should be back soon." Yan Zuozuo thought that he must be talking about Su Fei's matter. Chi Moqing would definitely not let it go. If Su Kang asked her for help, should she plead with Chi Moqing?
She frowned slightly, clearly unwilling, but wondered what Fu Zixin would think. She stole a glance at her and saw that Fu Zixin's face was red, as if she was still arguing with Su Kang.
Chi Moqing returned quickly after finishing his business. Seeing Su Kang there, his expression darkened. Su Kang saw him, stood up to greet him, and the two men walked outside.
Taking the opportunity, Yan Zuozuo asked Fu Zixin what she thought: "If you want to exonerate Su Fei, I might consider it."
Fu Zixin peeled an orange, rolled her eyes, and said, "I'm not some saintly white lotus, why should I plead for that woman? It would be better to lock her up for life."
Hearing this, Yan Zuozuo finally breathed a sigh of relief. She chuckled and snatched half an orange from her, stuffing it into her mouth.
About ten minutes later, Chi Moqing came in, and Fu Zixin left with Su Kang.
Chi Moqing poured the prepared tonic into a bowl and fed her spoonful by spoonful. Yan Zuozuo ate two bowls in one go, and asked in confusion, "When did you make this? I didn't know." He had been with her at the hospital the whole time, how could he have had time to go back and make this?
“I prepared the ingredients and seasonings and put them in the pot to stew. I asked the nanny to watch it and call her if the heat was too high or too low.” He frowned as he spoke. “It still doesn’t taste right. I’ll stew it for you myself when you’re discharged from the hospital.”
Yan Zuozuo felt a warmth in her heart: "I just suffered a minor injury, it's not a serious illness, don't worry so much." He had developed dark circles under his eyes and looked haggard after spending the past few days with her, and he wasn't as handsome as he used to be.
"It's no trouble at all. The nanny bought all the ingredients. Getting better is the most important thing." Chi Moqing wiped her mouth and asked, "Do you want to eat more?"
Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Eat quickly. You have to work and take care of me. If you don't eat and sleep properly, even an iron body can't take it."
Chi Moqing smiled and said, "It's what a husband should do." He must have been really hungry, because he quickly finished the remaining tonics in the thermos and went into the small kitchen to wash the dishes.
The doctor came in, examined Yan Zuozuo, looked at the previous X-rays, and said cautiously, "President, Madam no longer needs to be hospitalized. She can go home and rest."
Yan Zuozuo was naturally happy to hear she could be discharged. She was getting tired of being in the hospital. But Chi Moqing was worried and asked with a gloomy expression, "Are you sure?"
The doctor nodded repeatedly, wanting to get rid of this troublesome person as soon as possible. Seeing Chi Moqing every day put him under immense pressure.
So, Chi Moqing took Yan Zuozuo home and wouldn't let her do anything, treating her like a porcelain doll, afraid she might break. Yan Zuozuo was exasperated, feeling increasingly like an unreliable wife.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Chi Moqing asked before leaving for work.
Yan Zuozuo blinked. It's too early to be thinking about dinner after just having lunch.
However, after finally being discharged from the hospital, she got tired of the tonics and suddenly craved something spicy. "Is anything okay?"
Chi Moqing met her bright eyes and smiled indulgently, "No spicy food."
Yan Zuozuo pouted and looked at him strangely, "Are you a tapeworm in my stomach? How do you know everything?"
Chi Moqing chuckled softly, "Even if it's for your health, can you just bear with it for now, hmm?"
Yan Zuozuo looked at him with a pitiful expression, as if she were very wronged. Chi Moqing sighed, "Acting cute doesn't work, let's try something different. I'll cook for you myself tonight, think it over carefully, and call me later."
"Okay." Since she couldn't eat the spicy food she wanted, Yan Zuozuo could only reluctantly agree. However, thinking of Chi Moqing's cooking skills, she started to look forward to it again. After a pause, she said, "Let's go grocery shopping together tonight, do you have time?"
Chi Moqing thought for a moment and said, "I'm free today, so I'll come back early."
Yan Zuozuo nodded. She had been thinking about what to have for dinner ever since Chi Moqing left. She felt that she had transformed from someone who wasn't particular about food into a proper foodie under Chi Moqing's influence.
After Chi Moqing left, Yan Zuozuo felt bored and was thinking about what to do when her phone rang. It was Fisher calling, saying that the video of the new clothing launch had been sent to her email and she could watch it now.
Yan Zuozuo was very excited and immediately turned on her computer, watching and praising, "It's such a pity that I couldn't go to the event."
“No rush, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” Fisher could almost picture Yan Zuozuo’s frustrated expression, and a doting smile flashed in his eyes.
“That’s true.” Yan Zuozuo smiled and said, “I’m almost fine now, and I can go back to work tomorrow.”
"Why are you in such a hurry? Rest for a few more days and let your injury fully heal before you come back. The company just held a new product launch, and there's nothing else going on for the time being, so just stay home and focus on recovering."
Yan Zuozuo felt guilty: "Okay then, you can continue with your work. I'll hang up now."
She hung up her phone and sighed heavily, feeling somewhat depressed. She sat alone in the living room, unsure of what to do. Suddenly, her phone rang again. This time it was Chi Moqing calling. "Wife, you just called?"
Yan Zuozuo glanced at the time. President Chi had only been gone for a little over an hour, so why was he calling back to check up on her?
