Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 146 President Chi's Flirting

The next day, when Yan Zuozuo woke up, Chi Moqing had already gone to work. After breakfast, she casually picked up the newspaper on the table and flipped through it. Suddenly, she froze as she saw the news about He Cangyuan's sentencing.

Ten years! By the time he gets out, he'll be over fifty.

Although I hate him, seeing his fate makes me feel a little bitter.

The phone rang at that moment; it was Chi Moqing calling. "Have you read the newspaper?"

"Hmm." Yan Zuozuo's voice was devoid of emotion.

"Then you..." Chi Moqing carefully chose his words, after all, he didn't know Yan Zuozuo's thoughts.

Hearing his hesitation, Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but laugh. "He's just someone I have no connection with. What can I do?"

Chi Moqing breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." After a pause, he said, "Yaoyuan called to ask me when you're going to start work."

Going to work...

Yan Zuozuo glanced at the crib, reached out and teased the baby a few times, then said, "Next Monday."

When Yan Zuozuo appeared at Fan Hua Design, the former employees all stared at her with strange expressions.

Yan Zuozuo also felt it was quite strange; she had just left here and was back again, which made her feel somewhat awkward.

When Cai Keren saw her return, she walked over excitedly and patted her on the shoulder, saying, "Welcome back! Having a child really changes you; you radiate a strong sense of maternal love."

One of the former employees laughed and joked, "Is it strong maternal love or strong breast milk?"

Everyone was amused by this and congratulated her, instantly creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Yan Zuozuo greeted everyone and then went into the director's office. Lu Yaoyuan was extremely excited to see her, his eyes sparkling, "Little sister-in-law, you're finally back at work! I've missed you so much!"

If it weren't for the fact that Chi Moqing was too abnormal, he would have reached out and hugged him long ago.

Is Yan Zuozuo's twitching at the corner of her mouth really that exaggerated?

She said, "I just arrived and I see that a lot of people have changed outside. Is this a major overhaul?"

Lu Yaoyuan poured her a glass of water with a grin and said, "The company isn't a charity. We naturally have to let go of people who aren't talented. A few capable designers will be coming over in a couple of days. I'll need your guidance then."

Yan Zuozuo laughed and said, "I'm just a novice, you're overestimating me."

"How could that be?" Lu Yuanyao smiled, chatted with her for a few more minutes, and then pushed an annual plan in front of her. "After the launch of the parent-child outfits, the response was very good. Although it wasn't our company that made the name for it, your design has been recognized by the market. So I've decided to set up a new design team specifically for designing parent-child outfits. As for this aspect, I'll leave it to you."

Yan Zuozuo glanced at his annual plan, thought it was quite good, and readily agreed. However, she still smiled and said, "At the company, please still call me by my name. I don't want people to think we're related, that wouldn't be good."

"Alright, I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration in the future, designer Yan Zuozuo." Lu Yaoyuan, true to his playful nature, said in a silly manner.

Yan Zuozuo smiled helplessly, and then Lu Yaoyuan continued, "As for the members of your group, you can choose any designer from Fan Hua Design."

“Okay, then I…” Before Yan Zuozuo could finish speaking, there was a knock on the door. Lu Yaoyuan’s secretary came in and said, “The president is here.”

"Let him in." Lu Yaoyuan said, then glanced at Yan Zuozuo with a mocking look: "Looks like someone's worried."

Yan Zuozuo blushed and looked up at the door. Sure enough, she saw Chi Moqing walk in, dressed in a sharp suit. When he looked at her, his originally cold and stern gaze softened instantly.

He walked over and asked in a low voice, "How's your first day at work?"

Yan Zuozuo glanced at the time on the wall. It had only been a little over an hour since she joined the company, so why was she feeling out of place?

Lu Yaoyuan, who was standing next to him, chuckled, instantly earning a cold glare from Chi Moqing.

He quickly raised his hands in surrender: "I was wrong, I was wrong, please continue."

Chi Moqing's gaze was fixed on Yan Zuozuo, as if checking if she was unhappy. Yan Zuozuo found it amusing; she had worked before, she wasn't a recent graduate, so what was President Chi worried about?

After a moment of silence, Chi Moqing said something surprising, "If you're not happy doing this, then don't do it. It's not like I can't support you."

Before Yan Zuozuo could retort, she heard Lu Yaoyuan yelling, "President Chi, you can't do this! I finally have a capable assistant, and you want to turn back at any moment? What do you mean by that?"

Chi Moqing ignored him, only concerned about whether his wife was alright.

Yan Zuozuo sighed and helped Chi Moqing straighten his clothes before saying, "I'm very happy here. Have you forgotten that design is my dream? Do you want to take away my right to dream?"

Chi Moqing pursed his thin lips, thinking it over and over and still felt that letting his wife go out to work was a very unwise decision. He wished he could take her home, lock her up, and just enjoy her by himself.

But he didn't want to see Yan Zuozuo unhappy, so he could only say, feeling wronged, "What if the baby misses you?"

“If the baby misses me, Mom will call me,” Yan Zuozuo said with a smile.

Chi Moqing was stumped. When using the baby as an excuse didn't work, she said, "What if I miss you and can't find you when I get home?"

Lu Yaoyuan got goosebumps all over. How come he never noticed that Chi Moqing had such a childish side? It was just... too cute, hahaha, he really couldn't help it.

Chi Moqing kicked him, and Daofeng glared at him. Lu Yaoyuan immediately surrendered and said, "You guys talk first, I have something to do, please go out first... Hahaha..." As soon as he entered the office, he burst into unrestrained laughter, which made the passing staff look strange.

Lu Yaoyuan realized he had lost his composure and quickly suppressed his laughter, resuming his serious demeanor. But once they reached a secluded spot, he burst into laughter again. This was simply the funniest thing that had happened to him recently, and he wanted to call the whole world to tell it.

In the office, Chi Moqing, unaware of the outrageous things Lu Yaoyuan had done, continued to plead, "Wife, why don't you come work for Chi's with me? If you like design, I can open a department just for you. It doesn't matter if it makes money or not, as long as you're happy..."

Yan Zuozuo felt that Chi Moqing had become increasingly clingy lately, but she only now realized that her perception wasn't deep enough. When Chi Moqing said those words, she was completely stunned. After a long moment of dumbfounded silence, she finally said, "President Chi, is it really okay for you to act like this as a president?"

She felt she should work hard so that if the Chi family fell into ruin one day, her family of four would starve.

"I am your husband now," Chi Moqing said matter-of-factly.

Yan Zuozuo smirked, "Then you absolutely cannot interfere with my work. I really like it here, and I want to work here. From now on, you're not allowed to use your official position to come and inspect my work or interfere with my job, understand?"

Chi Moqing felt very aggrieved, but he dared not disobey his wife's orders, so he could only say, "Then you have to have lunch with me every day, come home on time in the evening, don't work overtime, and don't forget me."

"Chi Moqing!" Yan Zuozuo gritted her teeth, so angry she wanted to kick him out.

When Chi Moqing saw that she was angry, he quickly hugged her, like he was comforting a child, and Yan Zuozuo was completely defeated. As you can imagine, Yan Zuozuo didn't even stay at the company for two hours on her first morning at work before Chi Moqing took her away for lunch.

When she returned to the office in the afternoon, Cai Keren looked at her with a half-smile and said, "I say, Zuo Zuo, you two are too sweet, aren't you? It makes everyone in the office so envious."

Yan Zuozuo touched her nose guiltily, determined to teach Chi Moqing a lesson when she got home, forbidding him from ever coming to see her again.

After a pause, Cai Keren said, "Zuozuo, I want to work under you, is that okay?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, feeling that Cai Keren seemed to have changed a lot. She used to dislike her, even hate her, but now she was being transferred to work under her. She stared at her strangely, remaining silent for a moment.

Cai Keren smiled awkwardly: "You're not still holding a grudge about what I did before, are you? I know I was wrong, I..."

"No, you're overthinking it. But our group is doing a matching family outfit series, are you sure you want to come?" Yan Zuozuo knew a bit about Cai Keren's designs. Her fashion sense wasn't great, and her designs were too flamboyant, so they were never outstanding. But it was precisely these flamboyant designs that catered to the needs of some couples, so bringing her over wasn't a bad idea.

"Then it's settled. Please guide me in the future," Cai Keren said with a smile.

Yan Zuozuo nodded, recalling what Chi Moqing had said about Chi's mother and Cai Keren's mother. If Cai Keren truly changed her ways, she felt it wouldn't hurt to keep her by her side.

To design a style that is widely accepted, you must first understand your clients' needs. In the afternoon, Yan Zuozuo spent some time in the office before going for a walk in the park, a popular spot for children and mothers, where inspiration often strikes.

She sat on the stone bench and saw a mother and daughter laughing happily in the distance. She couldn't help but think of her own two babies; if she weren't at work, she would have rushed into the courtyard to see them right now.

She took out her phone and looked at her screen, which featured an adorable picture of Chi Moqing holding two babies. She couldn't help but laugh out loud as she looked at it, and reached out to touch the three men she loved most.

"So it's true." A sudden voice rang out above her. Yan Zuozuo looked up and met Qi Jiahui's gloomy eyes. She pursed her lips. "What are you doing here?"

"I saw you coming, so I followed you in." Qi Jiahui stared coldly at her phone. "I heard you had twins." As he spoke, he reached for Yan Zuozuo's phone, his gaze towards the two children filled with anger.

Yan Zuozuo snatched her phone back, her brows furrowed, and said coldly, "What are you doing following me here? I don't remember having anything to say to you."

"Of course you have nothing to say to me, but I do!" Qi Jiahui's gaze towards Yan Zuozuo was devoid of any emotion, instead filled with malice. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Yan Zuozuo's arm. "Now my reputation is ruined, I've become a rat that everyone wants to kill. Are you happy? Are you pleased? Chi Moqing took the opportunity to take away my shares in Fanhua Design at a low price, leaving me with nothing. Yan Zuozuo, you're the one who caused all of this!"

Yan Zuozuo felt that Qi Jiahui was not only inexplicable, but also unreasonable. She forcefully shook off his arm and said in an icy tone, "I don't understand what you're saying. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."

"How could you not understand? Didn't you spread those rumors about me cheating and having affairs?" Qi Jiahui gripped her wrist tightly, his sinister eyes narrowing. "Even if it wasn't you, it was Chi Moqing who hired someone to do it. Yan Zuozuo, since you have no regard for our past relationship, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Yan Zuozuo looked at him warily, and sneered twice, "Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. This is what you deserve. No matter who did it, you are reaping what you sow. Can you blame anyone else?"

"you!"

"Am I wrong? You cheated on me with He Xinrui when you were with me, and cheated on me with Cai Keren when you were with He Xinrui. You're a scumbag, and you deserve to end up like this!"

"Yan Zuozuo!" Qi Jiahui roared, raising his hand as if to hit him again.

Yan Zuozuo suddenly remembered He Xinrui's accusations of domestic violence and shuddered. Just as Qi Jiahui's hand was about to strike, a mocking voice rang out, "What a scumbag, actually hitting a woman."
