Chapter 369 A Love Like a Collision of Mars and Earth
An Xiaoyue leaned back on the sofa, pounding her aching calves with her hands.
She's not used to wearing high heels, and today she wore them for five or six hours straight, which really took a toll on her.
"Let me see." Fu Shengyang lifted her foot and placed it on his thigh, massaging her with his long, slender fingers with just the right amount of pressure.
He pulled out a box of ointment as if it were a magic weapon. "When Grandpa was leaving, he gave me this. He said to scoop some out, put it in my palm, rub it to warm it up, and then massage it into my legs. It's very effective in reducing swelling and relieving fatigue."
An Xiaoyue took his hand, her watery eyes filled with love, "Thank you, Sheng Yang."
Fu Shengyang glanced at her, then lowered his head and continued massaging.
He spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, "Giving my darling wife a massage to relieve her fatigue is what I should do."
An Xiaoyue's love remained undiminished. "Thank you for letting me feel the sincerity and inclusiveness of love. I will work hard in the future to complete my studies and share the burden of family matters with you."
"There's none at home either..." Before Fu Shengyang could finish his refusal, his lips were sealed with a kiss.
An Xiaoyue pressed her slender index finger against his lips, her tone firm, "Home is the responsibility of both of us."
Family and responsibility.
Fu Shengyang's eyes were deep, his affectionate gaze tracing her eyebrows, eyes, and cherry lips...
After a long while, he leaned in and placed a kiss on her lips.
"Okay, it's all up to you."
An Xiaoyue was satisfied before inquiring about her father, Leng Shize, "How is Dad? Did you send him some hangover soup?"
Leng Shi drank quite a bit during the toasts today.
They accept all comers.
In the end, An Xiaoyue felt sorry for him and was worried about his health. After much persuasion, she finally convinced him to go and rest.
“Mom is taking care of him. I’ve brought him hangover soup and medicine,” Fu Shengyang explained. “Dad was just too happy, that’s why he drank so much. Don’t worry, the family doctor is also waiting at their hospital. If anything happens, he’ll be taken to the hospital immediately.”
"I'll rest for a while and then go see my dad."
Fu Shengyang always made such thorough arrangements, so she had nothing to worry about. On the contrary, it was his group of friends who were more of a concern.
"When we were toasting, I noticed something strange about Lingxi's table; the atmosphere seemed a bit off..."
An Xiaoyue couldn't find the right words to describe her feelings for a moment, paused for a few seconds, and then said:
"Everyone would glance at Zhen Zhen and Teacher Gao Qi from time to time, their eyes filled with gossip."
Fu Shengyang lowered his eyes, concealing the smugness in them.
He didn't know what Zhen Zhen was thinking, nor was he interested.
But Gao Qi's face was so sour; he must have been resentful.
He pretended to be completely unaware, "Really? I didn't even notice. Lao Xiao said he had something to discuss with me, so I didn't pay attention to anyone else."
That's what she said, but the more An Xiaoyue thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. "No, I have to go find Lingxi and ask her what the three of them were talking about while I was away."
"Hey, honey, what did Brother Chu want to see you about? Uncle Chu has been gone for so long, why hasn't Chu Ci made a sound?"
I heard the Shen family is short of money, so Chu Ci will probably cause a scene.
Fu Shengyang rubbed his hands together, looking quite troubled.
He didn't want his precious wife to know about these dark things.
"Honey, why aren't you saying anything?" An Xiaoyue pressed.
Looking into her clear and pure eyes, Fu Shengyang realized that it wouldn't be right not to tell her, since they had agreed that husband and wife should be honest with each other.
"Chu Ci's mother gambled and borrowed money from loan sharks. When she couldn't repay the debts, the loan sharks found Chu Ci, or more accurately, they kidnapped her."
"How is Chu Ci?" An Xiaoyue asked anxiously.
She didn't feel much sympathy for Chu Ci; it was just an instinctive reaction in the face of human life.
Fu Shengyang's Adam's apple bobbed as he thought of what Chu Xiao had said, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.
Those people are really inhuman.
Such cruel methods are worse than those of animals.
"already dead."
He used the final outcome to cover up the cruelty of the process.
Those people kept Chu Ci as a pet and auctioned off her body organs and flesh from different parts of her body on the dark web.
It was Chu Xiao who told him that he realized there were such dark places in the world.
Not content with just poultry meat, they also eat human flesh, with different parts of the body and feeding methods corresponding to different prices.
"what!"
An Xiaoyue was shocked.
After a few seconds, he muttered to himself again, "That's right, those people are all desperate thugs. If they don't get the money, they'll just kill the hostages to vent their anger."
"What about Chu Ci's mother? Is she no longer here?"
"Probably, Lao Xiao didn't say."
These findings were obtained during the crackdown on the dark web.
Chu Ci was the last victim, and as for Huang Xiu'e, her fate is indeed unknown.
However, the chances of dying are greater.
Fu Shengyang didn't want her to get stuck in her emotions, so he took the phone and tried to distract her, "Didn't you want to chat with Lingxi? Here, take your phone."
Recalling the strange atmosphere, An Xiaoyue opened her phone and sent a message to Zhong Lingxi.
Zhong Lingxi had just arrived home and was removing her makeup.
Otherwise, if Ji Yubai's mother sees this, she'll give him a good scolding.
There are rumors that you can't wear makeup during pregnancy, or that chemicals can cause birth defects.
She had checked the ingredients of the cosmetics and confirmed that they were perfectly safe for pregnant women to use.
However, it was not good to argue with Ji's mother, as it would put Ji Yubai in a difficult position.
Try to be understanding of them having children and grandchildren late in life. She should try to keep it a secret from them.
I rinsed the foam off my face, revealing a face covered in red pimples.
Zhong Lingxi's shoulders slumped, and she couldn't help but feel deflated.
The power of hormones is too great; they completely ruined her perfectly good skin.
Why did Xiaoyue's skin become even better than before when she was pregnant?
Just as she was thinking about Xiaoyue, the ringtone she had specially set for Xiaoyue came through her phone.
Just by listening to her voice, she knew it was Xiaoyue looking for her.
Xiaoyue: [Lingxi, did something happen while I was gone? I felt like you guys were acting strange when you were toasting.]
Zhong Ling smiled and thought, "Xiao Yue is indeed Xiao Yue. She noticed it in just a minute or two."
She replied:
[Zhen Zhen greeted Gao Qi, but Gao Qi didn't recognize her. Zhen Zhen was quite annoyed, subtly implying that Gao Qi lacked gentlemanly manners. We were puzzled, but after checking, we learned that Gao Qi was the technical advisor for Zhen Zhen's previous medical drama series, and the two had worked together for a period of time.]
An Xiaoyue stared blankly at the message on her phone for a few moments.
Gao Qi and Zhen Zhen worked together.
Given Zhen Zhen's personality, she certainly wouldn't let herself suffer a loss.
Therefore, it is perfectly normal for her to criticize Gao Qi for lacking gentlemanly manners.
However, Gao Qi is not a person with high emotional intelligence.
In the words of the elderly, they've become stupid from reading too much.
Just imagining that scene, An Xiaoyue knew how angry Zhen Zhen would be.
Gao Qi must have had a look on his face that said, "Women and petty people are the hardest to deal with."
Before she could reply, Zhong Lingxi sent another message.
Do you think Zhen Zhen and Gao Qi could have a relationship? Like those couples in old TV dramas, the bickering lovers who are always at odds but secretly deeply in love.
Both parties involved, An Xiaoyue, had contact with each other.
She imagined in her mind what it would be like for Gao Qi and Zhen Zhen to be together.
Neither of them is the type to suffer a loss.
Both of them are very career-oriented.
Both of them have straightforward personalities.
The two got into an argument, and the scene was... like Mars colliding with Earth.
tsk tsk~
An Xiaoyue slammed her hand down: Impossible.
Then click Send.
These two people can never be together.
Zhong Lingxi: [What a pity.]
An Xiaoyue: [Is love more important, or is breast hyperplasia more important?]
Dr. Gao Qi's personality has been praised all the way since he was a child. He has never suffered any hardship and naturally does not understand words such as humility.
The only people who can make him bow down are those who are more professional than him.
Zhen Zhen has been working her way up in the entertainment industry for many years, from a bit-part actress to the leading lady of a hit drama. Only she knows how many tears she has shed in between.
When the two of them are together, it's Zhenzhen who suffers.
Because she knows everything.
An Xiaoyue didn't want the people around her to suffer like this.
Moreover, Zhen Zhen has also said that she is not interested in men, she just wants to make more money and retire as soon as possible.
The two sisters engaged in a rational analysis, unaware that love is an emotion, not controlled by reason.
As night falls over Beijing, the city's prosperity extends beyond its lights; its bars also shine brightly.
