After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 57



At this moment, Ji Fei was in Qin Xian's study, looking at the investment returns report he had brought back. Although she didn't really understand it, she pretended to supervise anyway.0

While supposedly examining the report, her gaze had already drifted elsewhere.0

The white bathrobe was slightly open, and the light from the crystal chandelier spread across the clearly defined muscle lines. The chest muscles, suppressing some kind of strength, rose and fell with each breath. His brow and hair, dampened by moisture, were like ink paintings. His profile, encircled by light, seemed as if through a filter.0

[Oh my, what a tempting sight! How does the CEO always have this lazy yet refined beauty when he takes off his suit? I'm less and less inclined to divorce him. It's nice just to have him here to look at!]0

Qin Xian's originally contented expression suddenly froze. Why was she thinking about divorce again?0

[But in two months, his First Love will be coming back. Then it'll be all kinds of push and pull, ambiguity, her feeling wronged, him misunderstanding, her suffering, him being reluctant to let go. And I'll be stuck in the middle as a prop for their drama. It's fun to watch other people's drama, but I don't want to be part of it myself.]0

Qin Xian took a deep breath! He really wanted to grab Ji Fei's head and tell her: Stop your divergent thinking.0

Where did she get all this from? Couldn't she just check his memories?0

Yes, Yu Zhi was his first love, but she wasn't his First Love at all!0

They just admired each other in college. Yu Zhi pursued him, and he didn't dislike her, so they naturally started dating.0

Because he was very slow to warm up emotionally and didn't particularly like intimate behavior, during their years of dating, apart from spending every day together in class, self-study, and academic activities, they didn't even share one passionate lover's kiss.0

But he had seen Yu Zhi hint to others about how sweet their relationship was.0

Secretary Jin heard a lot about it at that time, and the whole school ate up their 'couple candy'. It made it seem like they were deeply in love, when in fact, they weren't at all.0

Later, when Yu Zhi suddenly said she wanted to break up and go abroad, he very naturally accepted it and wished her well.0

He hadn't dated anyone since then because he was too busy taking over the family business. A CEO doesn't have time for romance every day.0

But everyone assumed it was because he couldn't get over his First Love, which wasn't true at all.0

Strictly speaking, he didn't even know if what they had could be considered true love, especially after seeing a few of his brothers and sisters act foolishly for love. It made him even more doubtful.0

Of course, given Qin Xian's personality, he couldn't bring himself to grab Ji Fei's little ears and strictly emphasize his situation to her.0

He always felt that Ji Fei was so gossipy, she would discover it on her own someday. Then she would be assured that he would never divorce her for an outsider, and she would be content being Mrs. Qin. Finally, they could... seriously work on their marriage.0

For instance, he was now following his parents' advice, learning to indulge Ji Fei's little hobbies when they were alone, to cultivate their relationship.0

But this girl mostly just irritated him.0

Actually, Ji Fei was quite wronged. She wasn't a privacy invader. Unless there was some juicy gossip, she would only pry a little. Otherwise, she wouldn't delve too deeply into anything.0

After all, Qin Xian was just an acquaintance who happened to fit her aesthetic tastes. At most, he could barely be considered a friend. They were bound to divorce sooner or later.0

If she understood too much, what if she actually developed feelings? That would be troublesome, after all, she did acknowledge Qin Xian's personal charm.0

Ji Fei was used to living alone before. She was a person who knew how to protect herself and avoid risks. So it was hard for her to truly care for someone, otherwise she wouldn't have remained single in her past life.0

Just as Ji Fei couldn't resist the urge to reach out and poke someone's abs, her phone vibrated.0

"Huh? Why does it feel like my recent financial luck is a bit unreasonable? Just because I ordered takeout, it's worth this much? Why are there even odd and even numbers?"0

Ji Fei instinctively showed the phone screen to Qin Xian.0

Qin Xian raised an eyebrow slightly, "She probably gave you all the change she had on hand. She's going to focus on painting at home to prepare for the exam during this time, so she won't need it. It's a way of eliminating her distractions, I suppose."0

"That's so embarrassing!"0

"She said it's her goodwill, so just accept it."0

Ji Fei happily replied with a 'Thank you, rich lady' sticker. Then she turned and transferred most of it to Qin Xian.0

Hearing the phone notification, Qin Xian's lips curled slightly, the anger stirred up by that annoying person earlier had disappeared without a trace.0

"Qin Rong is quite principled. She could have begged you for a chance to get her spot back. But she chose to rely on her own abilities to take the exam," Ji Fei said.0

Qin Rong felt that losing her spot meant it was really gone, that was the punishment for her foolishness. But now that she had come to her senses, she wouldn't easily give up on her dream.0

Without a guaranteed spot, she chose to take the exam herself, determined to enter her dream art academy.0

Even if the process was a hundred times harder, she was unwilling to give up.0

"It might not be a bad thing for her. The added difficulty will make her cherish it more, preventing her from being fooled by some punk again in the future," Qin Xian said, then added with a faint smile, "I believe she has the potential, because she truly loves painting."0

After Ji Fei went back, she couldn't help but think that everyone seemed to have their own dreams. In comparison, could her lack of dreams be related to not having money before and being too caught up in just surviving?0

If she had been born rich, would she also have something she really wanted to accomplish?0

Maybe she should also try to enrich herself and search for her own dream, after all, she had a bit of assets now.0

A few days later.0

[No, I regret it. Why can't a life of lying flat be considered a dream? I just want to strive to lie flat!]0

As the studio's relocation approached, Gao Hao finally remembered Ji Fei.0

So Ji Fei was dragged off by Qin Zhao and Gao Hao to the studio to arrange various courses, trying to disguise Ji Fei as a promising artist before they left, so they could trick a capable manager to come.0

According to their plan, they would first trick someone into coming, then promise a high salary, and give them the authority to recruit other artists, maintaining the studio. This way, Ji Fei could continue to slack off in their own studio.0

Ji Fei endured it for three hard days. On the fourth day, at 8 AM - 8 AM! Before the blissful second sleep could even begin! - she was again woken up by Qin Zhao's door-knocking.0

Sitting down for breakfast, Ji Fei was already lost in thought, once again repenting for ever thinking of giving up her wonderful life of idleness.0

Why couldn't she spend her whole life in debauchery and slacking off?0

Now she was considering simply giving up on making money in the entertainment industry.0

After finishing her self-deprecation, she looked up and realized that only Qin Zhao and Qin Rong were at the table. Qin Xian and Qin Yan seemed to have gotten up at 6 AM.0

Hmm... More excellent than ordinary people and working harder than ordinary people, no wonder they're rich!0

Qin Rong hurriedly finished eating, said goodbye, and ran off to seclude herself in the art studio.0

"Eat faster, we're just waiting for you," Qin Zhao said, exasperated at seeing her chew one bite of salad for ages, looking like she wanted to fall asleep on the table.0

Ji Fei had no outlet for her frustration. Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Strange, why are you here today?"0
