Chapter 31: We are already Married (2)
Translator: CokeZero Editor: Rainystars
The fact that Chu Yi Chen was the one who married Gu Xiao Xiao was something Chu Xiao Xi never could have imagined. Chu Xiao Xi had tried to introduce girls to Chu Yi Chen before but without exception, Chu Yi Chen had always said there was no need to do so. She could not believe that he had such a move up his sleeve and the move he made was such a big one.
“Put on your clothes, I’ll wait for you outside.”
After patting Xiao Xiao’s head, Chu Xiao Xi walked out of the bedroom. After a moment, Gu Xiao Xiao appeared in the living room.
Even with clothes on, she was holding herself as if she was cold. The color of her face also wasn’t too great. While her lips were curled, it was obvious that she was forcing herself to smile. It wasn’t hard to imagine just how much damage Jin Jing’s schemes caused her.
“Xiao Xi, do you want to go rest?” Sitting by Chu Xiao Xi, Gu Xiao Xiao suggested as she looked into her bloodshot eyes.
“I’m not sleeping! Why would I sleep? There is so much to deal with!” Honestly, when Chu Xiao Xi just returned, she was exhausted. But now, she was in high spirits!
“I have called in sick for you. Take a break and don’t overthink anything.” Chu Xiao Xi leaned against Gu Xiao Xiao lazily and did her best to distract her. “I got off the plane less than two hours ago and I haven’t eaten. I’m famished.”
“Alright, I’ll find you something to eat.”
Gu Xiao Xiao entered the kitchen right away as Chu Xiao Xi tilted her head and watched her go. She squinted her eyes and thought of Jin Jing and of how she would take care of that b!tch.
By the time Chu Yi Chen had arrived at the office, there were already several files waiting for him to sign. After finishing up the tasks on hand and going through with the meeting he pushed back that morning, most of the day had already passed.
Inside his giant office, Chu Yi Chen sat behind his desk and read over the documents Xu Ming delivered in silence.
“The identities of the two have been investigated. We haven’t let Shi Zi Jian go either. What are you planning to do?” Xu Ming stared at the silent Chu Yi Chen and asked in a whisper.
“Jin Fu Corporation just had its IPO recently didn’t it? Chu Yi Chen’s eyes flickered coldly. Normally, these kinds of newly public companies have a lot of dark secrets beneath the surface.
“I gotcha.” After hearing just one statement from Chu Yi Chen, Xu Ming had realized what game he was planning on playing. However…
Xu Ming didn’t really understand. This is the first time Chu Yi Chen is making a move ever since returning to this country. Is this all for Gu Xiao Xiao? Even if Gu Xiao Xiao is a great friend of Chu Xiao Xi’s, is this really necessary?
Xu Ming never left. Chu Yi Chen raised his head and gave him a look before he casually said, “Xiao Xiao and I are already married.”
Chu Yi Chen’s words made Xu Ming drop all the documents in his hand with a bang.
“As the general manager of Feng Yang, you can’t even handle news of that level?” Chu Yi Chen mockingly smiled.
“No, Yi Chen, you can’t joke about something like this.”
“Do I look like I am joking?” Chu Yi Chen’s words reminded Xu Ming of just how nervous he looked last night. “But, nobody knows about this. I haven’t even told my parents. Xiao Xiao doesn’t know who I really am and she doesn’t want anyone to know that she is already married. So, this is something you should keep to yourself.”
Chu Yi Chen’s words stunned Xu Ming.
He was married! A secret marriage even! The reason why it is a secret is that his little bride doesn’t want anyone to know!
Xu Ming found this extremely interesting. Living in a time like this, there were still people who would marry someone like Chu Yi Chen and not want to publicize it?
