Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 437 No Soft Heart Allowed

In front of the television, a handsome man with an air of nobility raised an eyebrow and asked the woman beside him, "Is this the girl you were talking about?"

The woman nodded, nestled in the man's arms, and gently nodded as she lay on the luxurious sofa. "She's a very good girl. I've investigated her, and I like her very much. You know, regarding the design drawings, she's the victim. Don't make things difficult for her; please help her, okay?"

A thoughtful look flashed across the man's narrow eyes, but a smile quickly returned to his lips: "Help? Of course we should help. It's time to deal with that woman."

In a way, he should thank Yan Zuozuo. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have had a reason to break off his engagement with that woman and pursue the one he loved.

Helping Yan Zuozuo is also helping himself, so there's no reason to refuse!

The woman nestled in the man's arms smiled gently: "Helping her will bring you many benefits. She's Chi Moqing's wife, the head of a charity, and she also has another identity—Nodens's..." The woman whispered something in the man's ear, and his eyes lit up immediately. He burst out laughing, "Not bad, not bad! I'll definitely help her out!"

After the press conference, Chi Moqing was clearly very angry, but he couldn't bear to lash out at his wife. He could only sit there fuming, his eyes fixed on Yan Zuozuo.

Yan Zuozuo touched her nose and sat down in front of him in a conciliatory manner. "Honey, don't be so angry. I didn't lie to you. I'm just trying my best to get along with Mom. You should be happy."

"I promised you I would hold a press conference to clarify all the previous slander against you and give Mom a way out, but I didn't expect you to bow down and apologize!" Chi Moqing looked at Yan Zuozuo with a hint of disappointment.

His wife did nothing wrong, but she kept making concessions for him. How could he, as her husband, not feel sorry for her?

Yan Zuozuo bit her lip: "If I apologize first, wouldn't that be giving Mom a way out? Whether it's you or the two children, Mom works very hard to take care of them, and we should be understanding..."

"Has your mother ever been understanding?" Although it might sound unfilial to say this, her mother had really gone too far this time. "You should be punished for your mistakes. This is what I brought on myself!"

Yan Zuozuo frowned. "Huh? That's his biological mother. This scene is a bit strange." However, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. If he didn't deeply love her, he wouldn't be so angry.

Yan Zuozuo tugged at Chi Moqing's sleeve: "Harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things. Do you really want to sever ties with Mom?"

"It's Mom who wants to sever ties!" Chi Moqing's eyes narrowed. "We'll pick up the child in the next couple of days. From now on, if Mom wants to see the child, let her see someone else's!"

Yan Zuozuo exclaimed in surprise: "Honey, isn't this a bit too much...?"

"You're not allowed to be soft-hearted!"

"..." Yan Zuozuo was speechless. Whose biological mother is this anyway?

By the way, does Chi's mother know that she was the one who was accused of being a third party and "ruined" Leng Yan and Chi Moqing's relationship back then? If she knew about this, would she hate her even more?

Yan Zuozuo felt a pang of panic and instinctively gripped Chi Moqing's hand tightly.

Chi Moqing looked at her: "What's wrong, wife?"

"If Mom finds out that I'm the one... the one who caused you and Leng Yan to break up..."

"There's no Leng Yan, only you and me!" Chi Moqing glared at her. "Mom already hurt you once back then, and now she's doing it again. Wife, I'm warning you, don't be soft-hearted anymore, do you hear me?"

"Oh." Yan Zuozuo scratched her head and responded in a dazed and cute way.

In the Chi family home, Mrs. Chi sat on the sofa, watching Yan Zuozuo apologize to her in front of everyone on TV, her feelings a mix of emotions. She instinctively snorted coldly, wanting to accuse Yan Zuozuo of putting on an act. But when she looked up and saw Mr. Chi staring at her, she immediately reflected deeply, licking her lips meekly, "Honey, you already knew about this beforehand?"

"Mo Qing only told me she would clarify the hurt you caused Zuo Zuo, but she didn't say Zuo Zuo would apologize." Mr. Chi glanced at Mrs. Chi. "Do you know why Zuo Zuo did this? She's giving you a way out! It's not easy for a child to go to such lengths, and don't you even remember how you treated her before!"

Speechless after being criticized and lectured by Chi's father, Chi's mother obediently nodded, not forgetting the guarantee she had written.

"Go and issue a public apology tomorrow. If you have any other ideas, you should know the consequences!"

"Oh," Mrs. Chi replied, though she was still somewhat reluctant.

Mr. Chi knew that Mrs. Chi had always been proud and would definitely feel resentful about having to apologize publicly. He sighed and said, "The children are all so sensible; they don't want to put you, as an elder, in a difficult position. As the matriarch of the Chi family, shouldn't you also show the proper attitude? Otherwise, what will others think of you as a mother-in-law?"

Chi's mother was taken aback, then looked again at Yan Zuozuo's sincere words, and something in her heart seemed to soften. Putting aside the matter of Meng Xinyu and her daughter, and all the messy reports outside, this child was actually a really good kid. Especially remembering before their relationship deteriorated, this child was more considerate than her own two children.

How did they end up like this? Looking back now, it seems that she, as the mother-in-law, really didn't do a good enough job, and it's no wonder the old man was angry.

To be honest, Chi Moqing was angry because he felt sorry for Yan Zuozuo. But now, seeing his little wife looking so pitiful, he couldn't stay angry at all. His heart softened, and he reached out to hug her. "Can't you take better care of yourself? How can I be at ease if you're like this?"

Yan Zuozuo giggled and reached out to hug him. "I have a husband who cares about me. I just don't want you to feel at ease, so you love me a little more."

Chi Moqing affectionately pinched her nose: "No matter what you do, my love for you will not diminish in the slightest, but will only increase."

Yan Zuozuo smiled slightly and snuggled into Chi Moqing's arms. Her husband had already done so much for her; she couldn't help him much more, so she could only try not to make things difficult for him in such small matters.

Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she asked Chi Moqing like a curious child, "Honey, what exactly did Meng Yuanfei ask you for help with last time? You still haven't told me."

Chi Moqing enjoyed the rare moment of leisure, reached out and hugged Yan Zuozuo, stroking her long hair repeatedly. "It's not a serious matter. His older brother was in a car accident three years ago. The other party was the county magistrate's son, who managed to shirk all responsibility. His brother is still in the hospital. I contacted the police station, and they are reopening the case."

Yan Zuozuo blinked: "Huh, I didn't realize that Manager Meng would also use connections."

Chi Moqing smiled and said, "This is a wrongful conviction, we should help."

Yan Zuozuo nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, honey."

"fool!"

The night was enchanting, with bright lights and bustling activity. Tong Shili had drunk a lot and was staggering when she came out. She wanted to hail a taxi, but there wasn't one in the vicinity. She frowned and continued walking unsteadily.

Just then, a sleazy-looking man walked over, grinning maliciously, "Miss, need a taxi?"

Tong Shili stopped and squinted to get a good look at the man. He was fat, had a big head and ears, and a wicked grin on his face. She didn't recognize him!

She took a few more steps forward, and unexpectedly, the man followed her. He placed his hands, which resembled pig's trotters, on her waist without any politeness, and said with a lecherous look, "Where do you live, miss? It's not easy to catch a car around here. Why don't I take you home?"

Tong Shili felt nauseous, but she had drunk too much and didn't have the strength to push this pig away. Her eyes were glazed as she stared at him, "Let go, you pighead!"

The man wasn't angry at all; instead, his lewd expression was even more disgusting. He stretched his pig's trotter toward Tong Shili's face, with drool seemingly still at the corner of his mouth. "Girl, how did you know my nickname is Pighead? You haven't been secretly in love with me for a long time, have you?" As he spoke, he pulled Tong Shili into his arms.

Tong Shili struggled, her steps unsteady. "Get away from me, you pig, don't touch me!"

"Wow, she's a hot chick, I like her!" Pighead said, wiping his drool, his beady eyes gleaming with a lewd light. Anyway, this girl's drunk and can barely stand, might as well just hop in the car and have her first.

Thinking this through, the pig-headed man ignored Tong Shili's resistance and grabbed her, pulling her towards the car. Tong Shili was extremely dizzy and tried hard to stay awake, but she couldn't control her hands and feet.

Oh no, is she really going to be bullied by a pig like this?

Suddenly, an inconspicuous car stopped in front of Tong Shili. The window rolled down, revealing a handsome and aloof face. Although the car was unremarkable, the person inside exuded a unique and arrogant aura, coldly uttering two words, "Get in!"

It's an absolutely overwhelming and powerful aura!

The man was naturally unwilling to accept that the duck he was about to eat had flown away. But when he met the cold face of the woman before him, he actually cowered and didn't dare to say a word, just watching helplessly as the beauty flew away. Ugh!

In the car, even though the man in front of her had saved her, Tong Shili didn't give him a friendly look. However, Yi Fanxi's appearance startled her and made her much more sober.

Yi Fanxi gave her a cold look: "Drink less in the future."

"What does it have to do with you?" Tong Shili smiled sarcastically. Since he couldn't be with her, what did it matter to him whether she lived or died?

A cold glint flashed in Yi Fanxi's eyes as he stepped off the stage, and he suddenly slammed on the gas, accelerating the car. Tong Shili was caught off guard and lurched forward violently; otherwise, even with her seatbelt on, her head would have already hit the windshield.

She screamed in fright, "Yi Fanxi, are you crazy!"

Yi Fanxi ignored her and sped recklessly on the road. Tong Shili had already drunk a lot of alcohol, and his actions made her feel even more nauseous. "You, you stop the car... I'm going to throw up, ugh..." she said, her hand tightly covering her mouth.

With a screeching sound of brakes, Yi Fanxi pulled the car over to the side of the road. The next second, Tong Shili ran wildly toward the flowerbed by the roadside, vomiting violently. She sat weakly on the ground, too exhausted to move.

Yi Fanxi stood not far from her, coldly watching her.

Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Tong Shili gave him a weak glare and said, "Young Master Yi, do you have that much free time?"

"Don't you feel uncomfortable if you drink until you throw up?"

Tong Shili paused, a sudden surge of grievance welling up inside her. She forced back her tears and glared at him fiercely. "What difference does my life or death have to you? You're having a good time with Judy, what business is it of yours? Get out!"

Yi Fanxi let her stand up and throw a tantrum, then grabbed her arm and threw her into the car.
