Chapter 109 - Newlyweds (1/2)

He Yi braced herself and walked to the bedroom. The bedroom door was ajar, so she pushed it lightly.

Yi Liangze lay in bed looking at his phone. When He Yi came in, he didn’t look up.

He Yi looked at the clock on the wall. It was already one o’clock in the morning, so it was indeed a little late. She opened the closet and began to search for her pajamas.

Last night, she had forgotten how she fell asleep, so she did not wear pajamas. She searched the closet, trying to find more conservative-looking pajamas.

While she was focused on searching for pajamas, a strong arm wrapped itself around her slim waist and pulled her into a strong embrace.

He Yi did not expect him to suddenly attack her. He was angry at her because of what happened tonight, so why didn’t he pretend to be angry? He should at least put on some airs!

But she seemed to be overthinking it. This man did not intend to give her a cold war over those things, nor did he intend to waste the night in a stalemate. His attitude was very clear – He wanted to have a hot skirmish with her!

“You’ve been selecting pajamas for a long time, but you still haven’t found one that you like. Don’t wear it!” The man decided for her. He put one arm around her, closed the closet with the other, and then carried her to the bed.

“Yi Liangze.” He Yi couldn’t be intimate with him under such circumstances because she still had a lot to say. “About tonight’s matter…”

“It’s best to discuss with me in advance what to do in the future!” Yi Liangze didn’t refuse to communicate, but his hands weren’t idle when he spoke. He stripped her naked in no time. “Let’s move on from this matter. Don’t mention it in the future!”

This simple decision made her unable to argue with him.

She was indeed a little reckless this time! If it was not Yu Shujun who caused Qing Xing’s death, her asking Ji Xueshan to pretend to be Qing Xing to scare Yu Shujun was indeed a little too much. Fortunately, Yu Shujun was courageous. If she was scared out of her wits, she was indeed to blame.

“Uh!” She grunted. She did not expect him to go straight to the point without any foreplay. Her tears were so painful that they flowed out. She clenched her fists and punched him. “It hurts!”

She seriously suspected that he did it on purpose. He was using this to express his disappointment with her.

“I’ve been hungry for too long, and my eating style is a little ugly. Bear with it!” Yi Liangze was like a hungry person who had received a piece of bread. He chewed greedily with every mouthful, wishing that he could skin her alive and swallow her whole.

He Yi bit her lips lightly. She had no strength to struggle and could only passively endure it. However, the man was too intense. Her clenched teeth gradually loosened, and her groans overflowed.

She was frightened by herself. Could his not-so-gentle love make her react? She had always been filled with fear towards that rough night from a long time ago. It had only been two nights, and she had already gotten used to it!

Yi Liangze was doing all kinds of tricks, fully possessing her and enjoying flirting with her. He was not purely focused on his enjoyment. He paid more attention to her reactions and feelings.

“Do you like it this way?” He bit her earlobe and asked intimately.

He Yi closed her eyes and pretended not to hear him.

Suddenly, she curled up and heard him chuckle. “So you’re afraid that I’ll tickle you!”

He Yi really couldn’t do anything to him. This was an extremely mischievous man. He could think of all kinds of tricks and was full of energy. It was as if he didn’t know fatigue even after battling until dawn.

Gradually, she couldn’t hold on any longer. Yet his interest was even stronger. He didn’t have any intention of giving up.

“I’m tired,” He Yi pleaded. “Let me sleep for a while.”

“You can sleep.” Yi Liangze didn’t have any intention of stopping. He panted heavily. “Don’t worry about me!”

“…” It would be a wonder if she could sleep with him in this state!

“Yi Liangze!” He Yi couldn’t continue and decided not to take it anymore. “I want to sleep!”

Perhaps he finally heard the woman’s deafening protest, so he got it over with. He finished with her still unsatisfied and said in a slightly hoarse voice filled with desire, “I’ll go to the law firm with you tomorrow.”

He Yi’s head, which was about to be tied up, slowly cleared. Only then did she remember the important thing tomorrow. “This…”

“I’ll take you there. I’ll wait for you outside!” Yi Liangze knew what she wanted to say and quickly clarified.

He Yi thought for a while and couldn’t find a reason to refuse. Although Chu Tianyi didn’t allow her to bring Yi Liangze over, it wasn’t against the rules for her to let him wait outside. If Chu Tianyi used this as a reason to go back on his word, then there was no need to regret anything. It was just his excuse, which meant that he didn’t have the sincerity to return the He’s fortune.

Thinking of this, He Yi nodded in agreement. “Go to sleep!”

“What time are you going to set for tomorrow?” Yi Liangze didn’t relax at all.

“Ten o’clock… or later is fine,” these were Chu Tianyi’s original words. Chu Tianyi, who had always been very principled and arrogant, actually said that ten o’clock or a little more was fine. He could wait for her.

“Well, then we can let him wait a little longer!” Yi Liangze said.

He Yi wanted to refute, but she was afraid that he would not let her sleep, so she could only agree with him. “Sleep.”

Seeing that she did not object, Yi Liangze was satisfied and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her to sleep most intimately.

*

There was no alarm clock, and no one came to wake her up. He Yi still woke up on time.

Although she made love until late last night and was extremely tired, she still struggled to open her eyes in the morning because she had very important things to do this morning.

She opened her eyes and stretched out her hand. As expected, the pillow was empty. The man had already woken up.

Yi Liangze was born in the army special forces. He had the habit of waking up early and running in the morning, so he could not be swayed.

He Yi got up. Her whole body was sore and her head was dizzy. Looking at the time, it was already seven o’clock. Counting with her fingers, she had only slept for three or four hours.

Yi Liangze was taking her to the law firm because she could not drive at all.

She struggled to get out of bed and realized that she was naked. For two nights in a row, she was so desperate that she did not even wear pajamas. Shaking her head, she walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

*

After coming out of the bathroom, He Yi’s mental state was much better. She sat in front of the dressing table and picked up the powder box when she suddenly remembered something. She picked up the phone and dialed Sue’s number.

“Hello, Young Madam Yi!” Sue’s tone was a little panicked. “Last night… Young Master Yi must have been angry!”

It seemed that Sue was well-informed. She had probably inquired about what happened last night. Moreover, she had a premonition that she was in a bad situation.

Yi Liangze was angry, and it was inappropriate for him to be angry at his newlywed wife. If that was the case, then why would He Yi’s subordinates not become cannon fodder?

He Yi said calmly, “It’s nothing serious. Is it convenient for you to come over now? I need to put on some makeup. I’ll go out later!”

“Oh!” Sue heard that she had not been fired yet, and her spirits immediately lifted. Her tone became much happier. “I’ll be there right away!”

*

On the third day of their wedding, He Yi’s makeup was exquisite, like a white-collar beauty in the workplace. Gradually, she no longer had the grand appearance of a bride.

The children thought that their mother looked beautiful no matter how she dressed, but Yi Liangze was unhappy. “Sue, don’t you know that she’s newly married? What’s the meaning of wearing such plain clothes for her!”

“I have to go to the factory later to handle some business. It’s not convenient to wear a formal dress!” He Yi said. Seeing that the man’s handsome face had turned cloudy, she hurriedly said, “9:30, come to the factory to pick me up!”

Hearing this, Yi Liangze’s face slightly brightened. “Okay.”.

He Yi saw that he did not insist on taking her to Fu Xing Leather Factory. She knew that she was going to the company to handle business. During the days of marriage, of course, a lot of work was delayed.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He Yi suddenly realized that it was not bad for both of them to be busy with their careers. If one was very busy and the other was very idle, there would probably be conflicts.

This was just the honeymoon period. If long after marriage Yi Liangze was busy with the company’s affairs (she had experienced it herself), and she was idle at home, she would complain that he did not support her, or that she had to stick to him to do everything. He would probably be very disgusted.

Similarly, if Yi Liangze was very idle and had to stick to her at all times and escort her, she would also feel that she did not have freedom.

Even if the two of them formed a family, it was best for them to have their things to do. They would be busy and fulfilled, and not be idle with idle thoughts all day long.

“What are you thinking about?” Yi Liangze’s eyes and tone were full of care.

He Yi was stunned and raised her head. “I’m not thinking about anything!”

The moment she said that she regretted it. She seemed to have said the wrong thing because Yi Liangze’s expression turned from clear to dark again.

“I’m thinking about the things in the factory.” He Yi was helpless and could only patiently explain to him, “I don’t know what the factory looks like these few days! Can Wei Jiameng help me keep an eye on the factory?”

Sure enough, Yi Liangze’s attention was immediately diverted by her. “Ha, Wei Jiameng! You’re giving the factory to her?”

It was full of resentment and contempt. He Yi’s eyes were filled with sympathy for Wei Jiameng, but she could not refute it. Indeed, Wei Jia Meng was ill-prepared to shoulder heavy responsibility. To ask her to shoulder a heavy burden when she was not around, was like pushing a duck onto the shelf.

“There’s also factory manager Zhuo, but he has been staying in the laboratory. I’m afraid he won’t be able to take care of other things for the time being.” He Yi was most concerned about the progress in the laboratory. “I have to go and take a look!”

Yi Liangze curled his lips. “Woman, remember that you’re married. You have to keep a distance from other members of the opposite sex!”

“…” HeYi shook her head and stopped talking. She lowered her head and ate.

Yi Liangze’s expression relaxed a little — as long as she wasn’t thinking about Chu Tianyi!

Xiao Chi took her to Fu Xing Leather Factor. He Yi waved goodbye to him. “Tell Liangze to remember to pick me up on time!”

“Don’t worry, you don’t have to tell him that. He’s very punctual!” Xiao Chi winked and drove away.

“…” This bad boy had also learned to be mischievous. Oh, he had always been very naughty.

The corner of He Yi’s mouth curled up. She turned around and walked up the stairs, preparing to enter the office building. Just as she reached the door, she saw Wen Yongxiang running out with his face covered. He looked a little embarrassed.

“Eh?” He Yi looked up and down at Wen Yongxiang as if she was a little surprised. “Eating pot stickers again!”

Wen Yongxiang was very embarrassed. He took his hand away and exposed the five-fingered mountain watermark on his face. He covered his face to show that he had been hit, so he was in a dilemma. “Ahem, I’m just playing!”

“You have such a hobby!” He Yi was very busy, but this didn’t stop her from teasing him. She didn’t realize that her vacation had helped. She was no longer as nervous as before but had the leisure and interest to make fun of him. “You like to be slapped and played with!”

So.., Wen Yongxiang was a little embarrassed and angry. “What do you have to do with what I like? You have only been married for less than two days and you have already become a mother-in-law. What happened to being cold and aloof? Fang Yu kept saying that you were the ice goddess. I didn’t see how cold and aloof you were!”

“Fang Yu?” He Yi was startled and became vigilant. “Why did he mention me for no reason.”

Wen Yongxiang wanted to say something but held it back. In the end, he rolled his eyes and left.

He Yi also rolled her eyes. This second brother Wen was beaten up instead of being able to snatch women. When he got angry out of humiliation, he was angry at her. He was indeed worthy of being Wen Siling’s brother!

Zhuo Hongzhao was telling Wei Jiameng about today’s work. Wei Jiameng’s eyelids were as heavy as a thousand pounds. She dozed off as she listened.

“Did you hear that?” Zhuo Hongzhao asked unhappily.

“Oh, I heard it!” Wei Jiameng perked up and rubbed her slightly swollen eyelids. “Aren’t these things done every day?”

“I do it every day, but the content is different every day!” Zhuo Hongzhao was extremely dissatisfied with the state of work of Wei Jiameng. “With you like this, I really can’t trust you to do all the work!” He said to Ji Xueshan who had just walked in. “Secretary Ji, you’re in charge of today’s work!”

Ji Xueshan shook her head and said truthfully, “Later, I still have to accompany Sister He to the law firm.”

With no other choice, Zhuo Hongzhao could only call over the deputy manager, Zhu Chunrong, and recount the task.

After Zhuo Hongzhao left for the laboratory, Wei Jiameng heaved a sigh of relief. “Oh my God, I really can’t stand him! He only knows about work and works all day long. Am I a robot?”

As she spoke, Wei Jiameng took out a file and slowly rubbed her nails.

Ji Xueshan looked at Wei Jiameng’s slightly swollen eyelids and asked, “Did you quarrel with Fang Yu?”

Wei Jiameng pouted. “He’s always unwilling to reveal our relationship. It was fine in the past, but now that He Yi is married to young Master Yi, he still hasn’t changed or taken any action.”

Ji Xueshan turned on the computer and began to arrange the day’s work for He Yi. She knew that although Fang Yu admitted that Wei Jiameng was his only real girlfriend, he had never taken her to any public place. Especially at Yi Liangze and He Yi’s wedding, Fang Yu avoided Wei Jiameng and deliberately kept a distance, afraid that others would think that there was something between them.

Maybe Fang Yu was afraid of Empress Chu, or maybe he felt that it would be embarrassing for him to disclose his relationship with Wei Jiameng. After all, Wei Jiameng had a divorce, and she was an impediment.

“If this goes on, when will it end?” Wei Jiameng rested her chin on her hands, full of distress. “Look at how good young Master Yi is to He Yi! “He’s so devoted, and he even held such a grand wedding… I don’t expect him to marry me so soon. At least… He can stand with me in public! Others think that he’s single, and those women always shamelessly lean on him…”

Listening to Wei Jiameng’s mumbling, Ji Xueshan calmly focused on her work. Suddenly, she noticed something and quickly looked up. Only then did she realize that He Yi had come in. “Sister He, why are you here so early?”

As a newlywed, shouldn’t they be inseparable? She was able to arrive at the office on time at eight o’clock.

Wei Jiameng was also very surprised. She widened her eyes and stood up. Looking at He Yi, who was dressed in professional attire, she exclaimed, “Wow, bride, you’re back to work on the third day after your wedding!”

He Yi smiled. “I’m going to the law firm later, so I came over to have a look.”

Wei Jiameng could not help shaking her head. “There’s such a workaholic woman like you in the world?”

He Yi looked at Wei Jiameng and said, “When I was away, did you help manager Zhuo oversee the work?”

“Yes!” After Wei Jiameng said that, she realized something and quickly hid the tool in her hand. “But… I’m in a bad mood today… so I’ll recover my mood first!”

He Yi shook her head. “I’m not forcing you to work, but I want you to have something to do so that you won’t spend all your time on that Playboy!”

“He’s not a Playboy!” Wei Jiameng quickly defended Fang Yu.

“He’s already admitted that you’re his girlfriend. Why didn’t he bother to get close to you at the wedding? He even made it so clear as if he was afraid that you would touch him!” He Yi came to the factory to look at the operating situation, and the second reason was to have a few words with Wei Jiameng. “Jiameng, you should see clearly that he doesn’t have much sincerity toward you!”
