Chapter 06

Zuo Wen sighed, opened the door, rushed down the stairs, and grabbed Yu Younuan's elbow

After finishing the noodles, Zuo Wen got up to wash the bowl, and only then did he sit down to look at Yu Younuan

If it were someone else, they would probably be taken aback, but Zuo Wen merely cast a faint glance at Yu Younuan.

On the evening of the second day, at eleven o'clock, Yu Younuan arrived at Zuo Wen's apartment, dragging her suitcase and knocking on the door. At this time, Yu Younuan felt certain that Zuo Wen was home.

Yu You Nuan could not hear the conversations from the apartment across the way. However, she did not wait long tonight before Zuo Wen returned. Upon seeing her sitting on top of the suitcase, he frowned impatiently.

Zuo Wen ordered a pot of fish slice congee, a serving of stir-fried Chinese broccoli, and a serving of cucumber salad. The vegetables were very fragrant, and the fish slice congee was also quite delicious. However, Yu You Nuan's attention was drawn to the young couple at the next table.

Yu You Nuan shouted in anger and embarrassment: "What do you think I am thinking?"

However, Yu You Nuan knocked several times, but no one responded. She confirmed that Zuo Wen had not gone on a business trip, so she had no choice but to sit on the suitcase and wait for Zuo Wen to return

Yu Younuan turned around, still thinking that Zuo Wen had come to apologize, after all, no gentleman would say such things

Zuo Wen changed clothes and came out, seeing Yu You Nuan taking medicine, couldn't help but frown again, "You are not feeling well, why are you running around?"

Yu Younuan stood up and asked, "Do you always get off work this late?"

"Yu Younuan, this little bit of beer is nothing to me, you can stop your thoughts now." Zuo Wen's expression showed no signs of sarcasm, yet these words provoked Yu Younuan to the brink of fury.

"But they must have strong conditions, right? Tall, handsome, and with a driver, how could they not have good fortune with the opposite sex?" said the young wife

Yu Younuan was hungry and felt so aggrieved that she was about to boil over, yet she had no way to confront Zuo Wen.

There is a social engagement in the evening

What thoughts can I have? The young husband embraces his wife, but that man across from us is indeed quite fortunate in love

"Even if I were to get divorced, I would still serve the Yu family loyally. You need not worry. Mr. Yu has shown me kindness in the past, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life," Zuo Wen said, looking at Yu You Nuan.

Old Wang has arrived outside the community, I will escort you out. Zuo asked and hung up the phone, then picked up his coat

Zuo Wen did not refuse

Yu You Nuan smiled ingratiatingly and said, "You should give it a try."

Zuo Wen was probably really pushed to the edge by Yu You Nuan, "Yu You Nuan, I really want to throw you out of the window."

Yu Younuan withdrew her gaze and took a long breath. She knew that she did not enjoy such treatment here with Zuo Wen. Miss Yu's delicate hands, precious as they were, peeled the shrimp meat, yet the meat from the first shrimp was placed into Zuo Wen's plate.

The more Zuo Wenxuan wanted to pull his arm away, the tighter Yu Younuan held on. After several attempts, it was inevitable that they would brush against the softest parts of a woman. Yu Younuan's face felt as if it were on fire, yet she did not let go.

The young wife patted her husband's shoulder and said, "You are just attracted to her beauty, aren't you? You mentioned she is a rich and beautiful woman. Did you see her handbag? One handbag is more expensive than our car. You might as well give up on those thoughts right now."

Zuo Wen's hand was tucked into his pocket, and he didn't even want to glance at this scoundrel, Yu You Nuan.

Yu Younuan lowered her head, lost in thought, and finally raised it to say: "I am hungry"

Miss Yu is a tall individual who wears flat shoes, effortlessly sitting on the windowsill. "Alright, now poke me with your finger, and I will fall down. Go ahead and throw me."

Yu Younuan trembled all over with anger, unable to utter a single word. Grabbing her handbag, she rushed out the door. Scalding tears poured from her eyes. The fact that Zuo Wen could say such hurtful things indicated that she had indeed committed far too many wrongs in the past, to the extent that Yu Younuan felt insufficiently confident to even refute his words

Zuo Wen did not speak, but his eyes were too deep, as if they could read the things hidden in Yu You Nuan's heart.

Yu Younuan, enduring the temperament of a young lady, could only wait for Zuo Wen to finish his phone call

Zuo Wen opened the door and said irritably, "You spend all day doing nothing; you can go to work at the company. Sooner or later, you will have to take charge of the company's overall situation."

Yu You warmly and contentedly watched as Zuo Wen devoured the spicy shrimp, then filled Zuo Wen's wine glass to the brim, saying, "Let's ease the spiciness."

Yu Younuan observed it keenly, a surge of fire raging within her heart. She should have anticipated that Zuo Wen was being deliberate. How could someone who now commands the business world be so oblivious to human sentiments? He must have long since seen through himself.

I have made my words clear" said Zuo Wen coldly

When the spicy shrimp arrived, Yu Youhuan put on a pair of disposable plastic gloves, looking ready to indulge. However, she indeed had a low tolerance for spiciness, and as she hesitated while handling the shrimp, she glanced up to see the young couple beside her, with the man thoughtfully peeling the shrimp meat for the girl.

The night was cool as water, and Yu You warmly exaggeratedly wrapped her arms around herself. However, after waiting for a long time, she still did not see Zuo Wen drape the idle coat in his hand over her shoulders. She had no choice but to turn her head to look at Zuo Wen, then rubbed her arms, was this hint clear enough

Yu Younuan sat in Zuo Wen's car, her head turned towards the window. The cabin was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard. When the car arrived at the Yu residence, she got out without saying a word.

Isn't that man someone who starts relationships casually and then abandons them? This woman is clinging to him relentlessly? The young wife was extremely curious

"You cannot drink alcohol," Zuo asked

When they returned to the apartment after checking out, Yu You Nuan took the initiative to offer her assistance to Zuo Wen in going back to the room, only to see Zuo Wen gently push her hand away.

On the table of that couple, there was a dish that was bright red. Yu You Nuan carefully discerned and recognized it as spicy shrimp. The girl took a bite and kept fanning her tongue, while the man fed her beer to alleviate the spiciness.

Yu You Nuan looked at Zuo Wen with tears blurring her vision and said, "Zuo Wen, you are nothing but a cold-blooded creature"

The young wife across from the Zuo Wen apartment, after seeing Yu Younuan in the corridor through the peephole, softly said to her husband: "That woman came again yesterday. Hey, husband, what do you think their relationship is?"

How do you know he has a driver? Does someone with a driver really live in our community? The young husband felt a bit jealous, asking, "Are you dissatisfied with me for not earning enough money?"

I do not, I demand that you fulfill your marital obligations, the obligation of cohabitation as husband and wife said Yu You Nuan, thick-skinned.

Yu You Nuan said: "But you can drink it, that one looks very spicy"

Yu Younuan pouted and said, "But I haven't finished speaking yet." After a pause, Yu Younuan looked into Zuo Wen's eyes, showing no signs of evasion, and stated, "I want to salvage this marriage."

Yu Younuan removed her gloves and looked at the greasy residue on her hands with some disgust, realizing that the disposable plastic gloves had not completely shielded her from the chili oil. She vigorously wiped her hands with a handkerchief, then brought them to her nose to sniff, exaggeratingly wrinkling her lips.

Zuo Wen raised his eyebrows but said nothing, and opened the car door for Yu You Nuan.

Aren't you going to bring your wife to attend? Yu You Nuan asked directly

This is absolutely ignoring

Yu You Nuan withdrew her gaze and turned to the left, asking, "What is that dish? I see many people ordering it, and I would like to try it as well"

It is too late, I will take you back, unless you want to make headlines in tomorrow's society section. A beautiful single woman walking in tears in an area with less than ideal security at midnight could indeed encounter misfortune

Hurry up and get on the bus, and it won't be cold anymore, " said Zuo.

Yu Younuan turned around to look at Zuo Wen, her expression fragile and innocent, "I just don't want to lose you. If the mountain doesn't come to me, then I must go to the mountain."

Before answering the question on the left, his phone suddenly rang. Yu You was both anxious and angry, "Do not answer it."

Zuo Wen rubbed his brow and said, "I called Old Wang to pick you up"

Yu Younuan stopped in her tracks and looked at Zuo Wen. She asked herself, has she really fallen for this piece of wood? If so, wouldn't the days to come be too terrifying?

Yu You Nuan curiously asked, "Is the restaurant still open this late? I do not want to eat fast food"

The corners of Zuo Wen's lips curled slightly upward, "If you have needs, the monthly allowance I provide will be sufficient for you to sleep with the best public relations every night. If you are afraid of being discovered, you can fly abroad"

Zuo Wen coughed lightly twice and had no choice but to give up resistance

Zuo Wen stopped by the car, looking at the hesitation in Yu You Nuan's eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, not a smile, but a sarcastic expression

Yu Younuan's smile returned to her face as she quickly walked over and linked her arm with Zuo Wen's.

Yu Younuan was reluctant to leave, yet she feared that Zuo Wen might drive her away without regard for their feelings, which would be quite embarrassing. Moreover, one cannot rush to eat hot tofu; she merely intended to come over today to have a conversation.

Yu Younuan nodded slightly, observing the obvious sigh of relief from Zuo Wen, and felt a sense of discomfort rising in her heart

As Zuo Wen finished washing the dishes, he intended to enter the study, but Yu You Nuan quickly stepped in front of him, arms outstretched in a straight line, and said, "Let us have a talk"

A plate of spicy shrimp was almost entirely consumed by Zuo Wen, yet he did not touch a single one to peel. He drank a full half dozen beers without showing any signs of change in expression, leaving Yu You Nuan surprised at Zuo Wen's impressive drinking capacity

The young husband is playing games on his phone under the books, "Impossible, that woman is so beautiful, she clearly looks like a rich and beautiful girl. Which man would be willing to start and then abandon such a relationship?"

Yu Younuan straightened her back, lifted her chest, walked over, and stood in front of Zuo Wen, whispering: "If you do not give me the opportunity, I will strive for it myself"

Yu Younuan jumped down from the windowsill, sat down on the sofa, rubbed her stomach, and felt that the stomach pain seemed to be accompanied by a headache. She went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and took some pills.

Zuo Wen cast a glance at Yu You Nuan, then answered the phone

Yu Younuan looked curiously at the bustling food stall in front of her. It was already past midnight, yet it was still filled with lively voices and every seat was occupied. The seats for Zuo Wen and Yu Younuan were set up temporarily, as the owner unfolded a folding table he had brought out from inside the house and placed it on the street curb.

Zuo Wen looked at Yu You Nuan and said coolly, "No one is born a cold-blooded animal"

You cannot eat spicy food, " Zuo asked lightly.

Zuo Wen was almost amused by Yu You Nuan, so he simply ignored it and turned back to the bedroom

However, I suddenly feel like eating it. Yu You Nuan turned to call the boss, pointing at the spicy shrimp and said: "One order of that, um, and half a dozen beers."

No, not at all. Although that man is tall, rich, and handsome, his face is always cold and indifferent. Marrying him may not necessarily be a good thing. Wealthy people are like that; you have to spend your whole life watching their expressions. It is best to have a husband like you." The young wife wrapped her arms around her husband's neck. Their young daughter had already fallen asleep for a long time, leaving them with only intimate moments.

Yu Younuan pretended not to hear, "Have you been drinking? You still smell of perfume." Yu Younuan was quite familiar with the scent of that perfume; anyone who could afford it would not have poor economic conditions or taste.

Yu You Nuan retorted stubbornly: "Even if I have thoughts, it is because you have not fulfilled your responsibilities as a husband"

With a sigh, Zuo asked, who can do anything about Yu and Nuan, "Let's go."
