My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 66 A Remittance Slip 2

"I know." Li Yanan unhurriedly untangled the earphones that were twisted together; every item of his was meticulously organized.

"These past years..." He hesitated for a moment, seemingly considering whether to say it or not.

"Hmm?"

"I can never get warm enough to sleep."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhenxin was momentarily stunned, then her heart tightened and her nose tingled, feeling almost unable to control it.

"It always feels like I'm still in a freezer." Li Yanan smiled faintly.

In fact, this could be considered a psychological disorder, which Li Yanan knew, making it difficult for him to speak candidly to Lin Zhenxin.

"If you ever feel uncomfortable, just wake me up; it's not a problem."

Lin Zhenxin pretended not to hear the last sentence.

Since she didn't look up, she naturally didn't notice the emotion flashing in Li Yanan's eyes...

Nighttime.

Lin Zhenxin was, as usual, awakened by the warm embrace that was winding like vines.

After the onset of deep autumn, the air conditioner in the room would run at night; over time, it became dry and warm, coupled with Li Yanan's embrace...

No wonder she would wake up every night.

——If you ever feel uncomfortable, just wake me up; it's not a problem.

Lin Zhenxin's hand, which was drowsily about to push him away, paused.

Her sleepy eyes gradually became clear.

In the darkness, the silhouette of Li Yanan was distinct, even his breathing sounded so pleasing.

——These past years...

——I can never get warm enough to sleep...

——It always feels like I'm still in a freezer...

How could she bear to wake him up?

Lin Zhenxin sighed inwardly and, as if compromising, hugged him back and closed her eyes to sleep again.

Little did she know, at almost the same moment, the man who was supposed to be asleep smiled quietly in the dark.

Yao Lemon called Lin Zhenxin a week later.

Since that night, she had seemed to disappear, and Lin Zhenxin had called her a few times, only to find her phone turned off.

When Lin Zhenxin arrived at the agreed-upon café, she immediately spotted Yao Lemon sitting by the window.

She had lost weight.

In just a week, she was almost unrecognizable from the weight loss.

"Lemon." As Lin Zhenxin sat down, a glass of freshly squeezed juice was brought over, apparently Yao Lemon had ordered it in advance.

"Zhenxin, do you believe in fate?"

In Lin Zhenxin's memory, Yao Lemon always seemed carefree and happy.

Yet now, sitting across from her, she indeed looked like a parched lemon fruit.

"I do believe."

"I didn't believe before, but now I do."

Lin Zhenxin had only seen Lemon like this once before, after the news of her brother's death.

"Do you know who that Yaoyao is?"

Yao Lemon's question left Lin Zhenxin in silence. Given her question, that Yaoyao...

"Her full name is Gu Yaoyao."

The surname Gu? And for Lemon to have this reaction, could it be...

"Zhenxin, you're so smart, you guessed it right away..." Yao Lemon gave a slight smile, but it was a painful smile.

"She is Gu Daxiong's niece."

Gu Daxiong!

Lin Zhenxin sighed inwardly, as expected, it was really related to Gu Daxiong.

"Back then, my brother died saving him, and now his niece is stealing my man. Do you think I'm fated to clash with him?"

Yao Lemon smiled, but there was no warmth in it.

Lin Zhenxin's heart tightened; she wanted to say something to comfort her, but nothing came out.

The past was not something that could be explained in a few words.

But the name Gu Daxiong was the biggest taboo for Yao Lemon, not something to be brought up lightly.

"So, what are you planning to do?" Lemon seemed carefree on the surface, yet her thoughts were incredibly detailed. She was afraid she...

Would overthink it.

Yao Lemon was silent for a moment, stirring the drink in front of her.

"I wish I could kill those two." It took her a long time to say this.

Lin Zhenxin said nothing; with Lemon's character, she would not be incapable of such an action.

"But I'm not stupid; even if I did kill those two, what good would it do me?"

With a cold laugh, Yao Lemon's features were shrouded in shadow.

"Lemon, I'm really worried about you." Lin Zhenxin placed her hand over hers, the warmth finally pulling Yao Lemon out of her thoughts.

Yao Lemon smiled. Since her brother's death, she had been alone. After this happened, she had even thought about dying...

When did she become the kind of woman she despised the most?

Faced with men, she had no dignity, no limits, and not even... principles!

It's truly a terrifying thing!

"Zhenxin, if he bullies you, tell me, you are my best friend, and even if I have to give up everything, I will protect you."

Just like you protect me.

It took Lin Zhenxin a while to realize that the 'he' Lemon was referring to was Li Yanan.

"He's very good to me."

"That's good." Yao Lemon erupted into her first genuine smile of the day, softening her overly thin face.

"Lemon..."

"The wedding will continue." Changing the subject, Yao Lemon's expression turned stiff again.

Lin Zhenxin remained silent.

"I'm not resigned."

"For years, I've been spinning around Wu Feng like a top. Why should I be discarded as worthless before I've even enjoyed any return on my investment? What's more, yesterday Wu Feng knelt in front of me, Zhenxin, do you know what he said?"

Lin Zhenxin looked at her, still not speaking.

"He said he couldn't resist because I hadn't slept with him."

With a cold laugh, the sarcasm in Yao Lemon's eyes was overwhelming.

"Just because I hadn't slept with him..."

Although she studied adult products, deep down Lemon was quite conservative.

"Ironically, the matching results were out; my bone marrow was a successful match."

"Lemon..." Lin Zhenxin's expression turned serious.

This was no trivial matter, she hoped Lemon would think it through.

"I agreed to him, on the condition that... the wedding goes on, and he breaks off completely with Gu Yaoyao."

Lin Zhenxin abruptly stood up, startling the nearby customers.

"Zhenxin, do you really believe that a man who has tasted the thrill of infidelity can truly give it up like an addiction?"

Yao Lemon slowly raised her head, meeting Lin Zhenxin's gaze.

Lin Zhenxin seemed to sense something, her fingertips trembling slightly, while Yao Lemon simply drank her juice.

"Lemon, what do you want to do?"

"Zhenxin, I want to see them both ruined, disgraced!"

When Lin Zhenxin returned to the office, her colleagues were chatting about something.

Seeing her come in, they had mischievous smiles, and Sister Wang dragged her into the group.

After all, the show wouldn't start for a while.

Since that meal at Yunjing Restaurant, Lin Zhenxin felt she had become more integrated into the colleague circle.

Before, although people would chat and laugh, it wasn't as warm as it was now.

"What are you talking about?"

"Talking about well-endowed men who perform well, of course." Someone had brought up the topic again, and the chatter resumed.

After Lin Zhenxin got married, there were only two unmarried young women left in the office, and they both happened to be off duty today.

"I tell you, when I first got married, my husband stuck to me like it was something every night; now..."

The topics in the women's group inevitably turned to those discussions, and soon they talked about their night lives.

"Hey Zhenxin, how's your husband... in that regard?" Sister Wang nudged her with her elbow, smiling broadly.

It took Lin Zhenxin a long time to respond, her whole face flaring up, yet she couldn't say that even now she and Li Yanan...

Hadn't done anything yet.

Fortunately, someone walked in before she had to respond.

It was Shelley!

Since that day, Shelley hadn't appeared in front of Lin Zhenxin for a whole week.

Because of Shelley's entrance, the colleagues who had gathered scattered back to their seats, yet their eyes still peeked over the partitions at the two of them. free𝑤ebnovel.com

That day at Yunjing, Shelley had made such a fool of herself.

Even now, it was occasionally brought up as a topic of gossip.

"Lin Zhenxin, the interview time has been set, inform your husband."

Shelley still wore a face of thick makeup, her arms crossed in front of her chest.

"According to protocol, the station should confirm with Yanan first if he has time; but now you're issuing orders directly?"

Though associating with power is human nature, Lin Zhenxin really despised how they treated Li Yanan with such disregard.

"Is that necessary? Everyone knows that the illegitimate child of the Li Family has no authority, just plenty of time!"

Shelley's red lips curled; she was about to make a sarcastic gesture when suddenly the scene of Li Yanan setting her silk shirt on fire flashed through her mind.

Lin Zhenxin's face darkened instantly.

"Shelley, I thought after that night you'd grow a bit smarter."

Unfortunately, only for a week.

Hearing this, Shelley's face turned ashen and pale alternately; she had initially wanted her assistant to inform her, but she didn't want Lin Zhenxin to think she was scared of her!

"Lin Zhenxin, don't think just because you've married into a wealthy family, Li Yanan is merely a joke in high society! Just a dog of the Li Family!"

That night, Shelley had spent a whole thirty thousand helping her friend, and it still hurt to think about!

Lin Zhenxin said nothing, just silently watched Shelley, her surroundings exuding coldness.

The atmosphere between them made colleagues exchange worried glances.

As Sister Wang hesitated about whether to step forward and break the awkwardness, Lin Zhenxin suddenly smiled.

It was the first time anyone had seen her smile like that.

"Shelley, not every time you speak rudely do you not have to pay a price."

Shelley couldn't help but shiver, suddenly feeling the same sensation as that night when Li Yanan stood in front of her!

With a slapping sound, Shelley's face was turned sideways by Lin Zhenxin's slap.

The colleagues gasped in shock, seeming not to believe that the mild-tempered Lin Zhenxin would hit someone...

"It's currently 1:30 in the morning, and thank you to all the listeners who have stayed with me until now. Here's the last song for you, goodnight."

Taking off the headphones, she left the broadcasting room. Knowing Li Yanan would come to pick her up, she had packed everything before going into the studio.

"Zhenxin, you were too impulsive today." Sister Wang couldn't help but speak up.

If it weren't for the colleagues who helped separate them, with Shelley's temperament, she would have blown the matter up a long time ago.
