Chapter 155 The Surprise of the Lover's Chapter (2)
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow at her: "This is my Valentine's Day gift to you, how could it be a joke?"
Is this not a joke?
Yan Zuozuo stared at the two share transfer agreements in front of her. One was for half of the shares in this sushi restaurant, and the other was for the shares in the five-star hotel they had previously dined at.
She felt like a windfall had fallen from the sky and landed right on her.
She had no doubt that Chi Moqing could have arranged these share transfers without informing her; given his immense power, nothing was impossible for him.
"So, you were prepared all along?" She was still a little dazed, as if she'd been hit with a pie.
"It was all arranged a long time ago, but there just wasn't a suitable opportunity to give it to you." Chi Moqing looked at her, his eyes full of doting affection. "Zuozuo, I'm a businessman. I can't give you romance and poetry. This is all I can give you. I want to spoil you rotten, but this is all I can think of and do. Will you find it distasteful?"
Dislike? Yan Zuozuo felt that she should avoid being disliked.
"I was just thinking that since we're husband and wife, we're going to walk hand in hand for a lifetime. You can keep these things; there's absolutely no need for me. Besides, I don't understand these things, so you should keep them for now." The surprise was too great; she was afraid she wouldn't be able to sleep that night.
“It’s different. What’s given to you is yours. Women contribute more to marriage than men, so it’s fair that they should have more security. Even if you’re angry or sad one day and want to go out for a walk, you won’t have to make things difficult for yourself.”
A man's love for his wife is not just expressed through words, but also through actions.
Yan Zuozuo stared blankly at him. She had always been carefree and never thought things through or far ahead, but the man in front of her had thought of and taken care of all of this for her. A warm feeling washed over her, and she couldn't help but feel moved and her eyes welled up with tears.
Chi Moqing reached out and gently wiped away her tears, teasingly asking, "Did I say something that made you so sad?"
She shook her head, quickly wiping away her tears, and said, "No, President Chi, you trust me far too much. Aren't you afraid I'll abscond with the money?"
"Just remember to take me with you when you flee," Chi Moqing said with a smile, placing the share transfer agreement in her hand. He then said seriously, "You are my wife, Chi Moqing's wife. Everything I have is yours. This is just a Valentine's Day gift; you must accept it!"
His sharp, eagle-like eyes held a tenderness that stirred a thousand waves in Yan Zuozuo's heart. She gripped the document tightly in her hand and finally smiled, "Then I'll accept it. I'm quite wealthy now, so you'd better not mess with me, or I'll abscond with the money."
Chi Moqing smiled but said nothing, and then put some more food on Yan Zuozuo's plate.
Yan Zuozuo glanced at Chi Moqing, picked up the sake on the table and said, "I didn't prepare any gift, and I'm afraid I'll have to pay for this meal by credit card. I'll drink this cup as an apology." With that, she drank it all in one gulp.
Chi Moqing smiled and said, "How could you not have a gift..."
Yan Zuozuo thought the wine was delicious and was savoring it when she heard Chi Moqing speak. She was taken aback, "What gift?"
Chi Moqing reached out and gently pinched her chin, his lips landing directly on hers. He deftly pried open her lips, as if he were stealing a drink from her, until he was satisfied. Only then did he pull away, his voice hoarse as he said, "You."
Yan Zuozuo stared at him blankly, then her face flushed red when she realized what he had said. She gave him a coquettish look and muttered under her breath, "You rascal!"
Chi Moqing laughed heartily, his deep, pleasant voice ringing in her ear, "I've booked a room at the hotel, the scoundrels are still to come."
Yan Zuozuo was dumbfounded. Was this still the gentle, refined, and self-controlled man she knew?
Seeing her terrified expression, Chi Moqing laughed heartily again, "Are you full?"
Yan Zuozuo nodded, and then heard him continue, "Then let's go."
Yan Zuozuo paused for a moment: "Going home to see the baby?"
Chi Moqing turned his head to look at her, and chuckled as he flicked her forehead. "I already said I'm not going home tonight."
Yan Zuozuo's face flushed bright red, and she stared at him with a particularly strange look. So he was serious when he said he wanted a gift? Just thinking about his wicked words made her body feel hot.
When it came time to pay, Chi Moqing took out his wallet to pay, and Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. "Wait a minute, didn't we agree that I would treat you?"
Moreover, she owns half of the shares here, so he doesn't have to spend any money.
Chi Moqing chuckled, bringing his handsome face close to hers, and said in a low voice, "This meal is my reward for your hard work later."
Yan Zuozuo blushed at his words and playfully hit him, saying, "It's a deal, I'll treat you. I'll swipe your card."
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow: "I don't usually spend money much. Rather than keeping it for myself, I'd rather spend it on my wife to make her happy." As he spoke, he took out the money.
Seeing that she couldn't stop him, Yan Zuozuo could only say, "Okay, remember to ask me for money if you ever need it."
Chi Moqing's eyes sparkled with tenderness as he patted her head and said, "Okay."
Upon arriving at the hotel, Yan Zuozuo felt very uncomfortable. Although they were an old married couple, she still felt shy under Chi Moqing's intense gaze. Especially since he insisted on taking her into the bathroom, her mind was now filled with thoughts of intimacy.
Chi Moqing suddenly moved closer to her, his smile malicious. "What are you thinking about, wife?"
Yan Zuozuo was startled and exclaimed, "I... I think we should shower separately..." The thought of him wanting her to take the initiative made Yan Zuozuo's heart tremble.
"Wouldn't it be better to shower together? Honey, come in quickly, the rose petals and essential oils are all ready." Seeing that Yan Zuozuo didn't go in, he simply took her hand and led her inside.
Yan Zuozuo wanted to refuse, but Chi Moqing felt wronged, "Today is Qixi Festival, how can you bear to leave me all alone?"
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, and swallowed her words. She bit her lip and whispered, "I don't want to take the initiative."
"..." But I've been waiting for this for so long, my wife, can you bear to disappoint me?
Yan Zuozuo glared at him: "Otherwise, you can sleep by yourself, and I'll go back to keep the baby company."
Chi Moqing was seriously injured. Seeing Yan Zuozuo's expression as Liu Hulan, who was dressed as a sheep, he finally sighed helplessly and said aggrievedly, "Then I can choose the position?"
Yan Zuozuo almost vomited blood, but finally nodded silently with a red face.
Seeing her shy expression, Chi Moqing couldn't resist the urge to pick her up and carry her to the bathroom, whispering intimately in her ear, "Wife, are you shy?"
"Chi Moqing!" Yan Zuozuo struggled, feeling ashamed and indignant as she tried to get down.
Chi Moqing hurriedly apologized, but seeing her embarrassed look, he couldn't help but sigh again, hugged her tightly and said, "You don't have to force yourself to cooperate with me. If you don't like it, let's get some sleep. You've lost weight recently."
Yan Zuozuo was stunned for a moment, bit her lip, and after a long while said, "When did I say I didn't like it..." After saying that, she was filled with shame and indignation again, and kept pounding Chi Moqing with her small fists, "You got the benefit and you still act innocent, you're so annoying!"
Seeing her shy expression, Chi Moqing chuckled softly and carried her into the bathroom.
The next morning, Yan Zuozuo dragged her tired body out of bed. Chi Moqing had already prepared breakfast. Seeing her get up, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her and said, "Why don't you take the day off?"
Taking leave because of excessive indulgence? She couldn't bring herself to say it, even if you beat her to death. Looking resentfully at the radiant man in front of her, Yan Zuozuo felt a surge of injustice. He was the one who did all the work, so why was she more tired than him?
Chi Moqing touched his nose guiltily, then said, "Hurry up and eat breakfast. I've already had your clothes delivered. After breakfast, I'll take you to work."
Yan Zuozuo nodded, feeling no emotion at all, only a deep resentment towards someone who was like a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Yan Zuozuo returned to work, and the news of Fisher joining Fan Hua Design had spread far and wide, making everyone incredibly excited. It's said that another famous designer joined along with Fisher, becoming the deputy director of men's and women's wear respectively, alongside Lu Yaoyuan. As for Fisher, he naturally became the director of the entire Fan Hua Design.
As soon as Yan Zuozuo entered the company, everyone spread the news to her. She smiled slightly and walked towards the design director's office. Because of the personnel changes that had just been posted outside, she had become Fisher's assistant.
“Sweetheart… oh no, Zuo Zuo, you’re finally here at work! I’ve already chanted the spell 180 times over to your seat to make you come in quickly. We’re really telepathic.” Fisher looked aggrieved, and Yan Zuo Zuo really didn’t know what to say.
There was a knock on the office door. It was Zheng Yuyan, a renowned designer who had come to report for duty with Fisher. I heard that she had been Fisher's assistant for several years before becoming a full-fledged designer after coming here.
Zheng Yuyan looks like a proud and arrogant woman. She has exquisite makeup on her face, a tall figure, and is dressed in designer brands. Her expression is not changing.
"Master, here are the materials you requested." Zheng Yuyan's expression remained cold, as if she hadn't seen Yan Zuozuo at all.
Fisher nodded: "From now on, Zuo Zuo will handle these things. You just need to focus on design." With that, he stood up and introduced the two of them.
Yan Zuozuo reached out to greet her, and Zheng Yuyan seemed extremely disdainful. However, due to Fisher's presence, she reluctantly shook hands with her and then said, "If Master has nothing else, I'll head out now."
Fisher nodded, and Zheng Yuyan left quickly. Before leaving, she glanced at Yan Zuozuo, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction.
Yan Zuozuo found it strange; Zheng Yuyan seemed to harbor deep hostility towards her.
After Fisher officially started working, he seemed like a different person, becoming extremely demanding. He threw Yan Zuozuo's design in front of her, saying, "The idea is acceptable, but the skills are lacking. I have already made annotations on your design. In addition to completing the tasks I gave you, redo your own design according to my requirements."
Yan Zuozuo nodded respectfully and left with the materials. She carefully read Fisher's criticisms several times, and compared them with famous foreign designs. She discovered that Fisher truly had a pair of sharp, eagle-like eyes that went straight to the heart of the problem.
While Yan Zuozuo was revising the design, she saw Cai Keren sidle up to her and whisper, "Let me tell you, that Zheng Yuyan is not easy to deal with. I heard she used to be Fisher's assistant and had a crush on him. Now that you've ousted her, you'd better watch out for her making things difficult for you."
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. No wonder the woman had looked at her with such hostility earlier; there was such a connection. She smiled and said, "I understand. By the way, how's your design coming along? Let me see it."
Cai Keren felt a little guilty and chuckled, "I'll go back and work hard right away."
Yan Zuozuo glanced at her helplessly, picked up her teacup and took a sip of water. Her eyes inadvertently met Zheng Yuyan's, and she sighed inwardly, fearing that trouble was brewing.
