The Ancient Miss Transmigrates into a CEO’s Wife

Chapter 33

Zhengzheng took the pen and drew two strokes on the paper. When she turned around, the pen touched Shen Yin's arm. Shen Yin was wearing a white shirt and instantly felt she had made a wrong decision.

Seeing this, Xu Xiuhe laughed. He was completely oblivious.

"Zhengzheng, mother is angry. You got mother's clothes dirty. What should you do?" Shen Yin pretended to be angry and spoke to Zhengzheng expressionlessly.

Zhengzheng realized Shen Yin was angry and did not know what to do. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked to Xu Xiuhe for help.

"Zhengzheng, what should you do when you make a mistake?" Xu Xiuhe patiently taught her.

Zhengzheng blinked and said, "I'm sorry, Zhengzheng was wrong. Can Zhengzheng wash mother's clothes?"

This line successfully made Shen Yin break character and laugh out loud. Seeing Shen Yin laugh, Zhengzheng also revealed a few teeth in a smile. Xu Xiuhe was also affected by this atmosphere. It's so nice that Zhengzheng finally has someone who loves her.

The ringing of a cell phone broke this harmonious scene. Xu Xiuhe took out his phone which displayed an unknown caller ID. After thinking for two seconds, Xu Xiuhe still answered the call.

"Hello, may I ask what you are calling about?" After Xu Xiuhe answered, the other party did not make a sound.

"Hello?"

Still no reply. Faintly, Xu Xiuhe seemed to guess who was on the other end of the call.

Shen Yin had also been busy all day. Carrying Zhengzheng, she left the study, preparing to take a bath and go to sleep. There were still many things to do.

Ever since Zhengzheng returned from the crew, her small room had become purely decorative. She had to find her mother every night. Shen Yin also indulged her. After all, she was only two years old and had lacked maternal love before. Now that she had it, she had to cling to it properly.

Xu Xiuhe was still in the study, sitting at his desk handling documents, but he was still thinking about that phone call. So he sent a message to Xue Jingrui.

[Did you give her my phone number?]

[Did she really call you?]

Xue Jingrui’s reply had already answered what Xu Xiuhe wanted to know.

[There was an unknown number that called me. When I picked up, the other side didn't say anything.]

[Let me ask you one thing, please answer me truthfully.] Xue Jingrui sent out this message.

[Go ahead and ask.] Xu Xiuhe already guessed roughly what it was.

[You and Qi Yan have no future together, right?]

Xu Xiuhe had always known that Xue Jingrui liked Qi Yan. The two had known each other since childhood and could be considered childhood sweethearts. He and Xue Jingrui had been friends since childhood. However, coincidentally, he had only gotten to know Qi Yan in high school.

He found out that Xue Jingrui liked Qi Yan when they were in college. His and Qi Yan’s schools were close to each other, but Xue Jingrui’s school was far from them. Every time Xue Jingrui came to see him, he would bring food for Qi Yan.

Now Xu Xiuhe basically had no feelings left for Qi Yan. Time would dissipate everything. Now he felt that his current life was quite good. Zhengzheng was happy and carefree. He and Shen Yin respected each other, and their days were ordinary.

Having obtained a definite answer, Xue Jingrui felt at ease. Since Xue Jingrui still did not know Shen Yin’s current situation, he felt it necessary to let Xue Jingrui know that he and Shen Yin were doing quite well now. Although there were no feelings between them, they were decent life partners.

[Are you free tomorrow night? Come over for dinner at my place.] Xu Xiuhe replied.

[Great! I’ve long heard from Chang Zhiyuan that the dishes Shen Yin makes are more delicious than those made by a five-star hotel’s master chef.]

The message exchange between Xue Jingrui and Xu Xiuhe ended here. Xu Xiuhe looked at the time and confirmed Shen Yin hadn’t gone to bed yet, so he called Shen Yin.

When Shen Yin received the call, she thought it was preposterous. With only a wall separating them, that man had actually called instead of just knocking on the door.

"What's the matter? Zhengzheng is asleep already." Shen Yin asked.

"I'm looking for you. Do you have time tomorrow night? We’re having some guests over at home, and might need you to help entertain them."

Xu Xiuhe felt a little bad about troubling Shen Yin.

"Okay, sure." Shen Yin thought that as long as he told her to cook, everything else was her own time to be busy with. If Xu Xiuhe had said there were guests coming over for lunch, she would have definitely not agreed.

On the day the guests were coming over, Shen Yin was busy with some matters at her studio in the morning. In the afternoon, she went to the supermarket early to buy all kinds of fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs.

She didn’t know how many people were coming, so she thought she might as well make more just in case there wasn't enough food.

Thinking that she might be a little busy, she remembered Shu Yi had moved into Ziyue Ting but they hadn't had a chance to meet yet. It was just nice timing to ask Shu Yi to come over tonight to lend a hand and help look after Zhengzheng.

When Shu Yi arrived, she brought two bottles of red wine. Shen Yin joked, "Every time you come, you bring stuff. If you keep doing this, I'll feel too embarrassed to ask you over."

"No way! Shen Yin, I should be the one treating you to dinner. After we left the police station last time, I was busy promoting a movie I did previously in various cities. Like I told you, after sticking on the herbal patch for 10 days, I didn't get a chance to come back. But strangely, when I came back recently, I didn't feel any pain at all. I feel like my condition has improved a lot lately." Shu Yi's happy expression was written all over her face.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yin also felt quite amazing herself. She was just a half-baked amateur and had no confidence at all, yet she had succeeded.

"Let me take a look at you again."

Shen Yin took Shu Yi's pulse and said, "Not bad. The coldness has dissipated almost completely. Remember not to eat cold food, and try to minimize eating chilled stuff too."

Shu Yi happily gave Shen Yin a big hug, then felt she had overstepped her bounds and said "Sorry, I got too excited."

Dysmenorrhea had been so painful. Now that she was pain-free, she felt like the whole world had become better, and it was as if she had become a different person. "Shen Yin, you're too good, too amazing. If you were to open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, other clinics would go out of business."

"Hahaha, no way. If I opened one, patients would probably ask me to refund their medical fees."

Zhengzheng had been very well-behaved in the living room. Shu Yi played with her for a while and felt there was no need to keep her company, so she went to the kitchen to help Shen Yin.

"Wow, something smells so good!" Shu Yi smelled a tempting aroma as soon as she entered the kitchen. Shen Yin took out two jars from the bottom cabinet and opened them.

"Oh, so it's the wine."

The two jars contained peach blossom wine and osmanthus wine brewed by Shen Yin herself, filled with fragrance, making Shu Yi even more in awe of her.

"You're right, I shouldn't have brought red wine. Shen Yin, is there anything you can't do? In my eyes, you're practically omnipotent now."

Shu Yi was usually not very talkative, yet she seemed like a different person in front of Shen Yin.

Shen Yin started cooking, mostly dishes she specialized in, plus some dishes she had learned in this time period. In two and a half hours, there were 4 cold dishes, 8 hot dishes, a pot of soup and some snacks on the table.

Shu Yi marveled yet again, "I wonder how much good fortune your husband Xu accumulated in his previous lives to marry you."

Just as she finished talking, the door opened, and in came Xu Xiuhe, Chang Zhiyuan, Xue Jingrui, and an unknown woman.
