After Marrying Bigshot Vegetable Boss - Chapter 7
The next day when Yulan woke up and finished washing up, he opened the door and coincidentally ran into Xijun coming out of Chu Wang’s room.
Probably after checking Chu Wang’s condition, Xijun saw him and showed a gentler expression than yesterday: “Xiao Yu, you worked hard yesterday.”
She really didn’t expect Yulan to actually do a good job, not just casually dismissive or perfunctory.
Yulan’s eyes were still a bit hazy. He wanted to wave his hand casually and say, “It’s nothing,” but before his hand could extend, he suddenly became alert, immediately retracting his movement, shaking his head, and speaking softly and gently: “This is what a companion should do.”
“Oh Auntie, I also want to learn more about physiotherapy so I can better help Mr. Chu.”
Xijun looked very pleased: “You’re such a good child. Just having this intention is already good enough. You are joining us here, not applying for a job. I won’t mistreat you.”
“I’ve already informed the people at home. When I’m not here, you can try to take charge. Don’t worry, this isn’t the Yu family, nothing like that will happen here.”
Xijun remembered the grievances Yulan had expressed last night and felt heartache. He had really suffered too much before.
Yulan blinked, his lips trembling slightly, feeling pleasantly surprised: “Auntie, I, I…”
The more Xijun looked at him, the more he liked him, and the more he liked him, the more he felt sorry for him. So when he spoke again, there was even more affection: “Good child, from now on, you are part of our Chu family. Don’t feel too restrained, okay?”
Seeing this poor child, he probably hadn’t had many good days before.
Xijun was overwhelmed with maternal love as he looked into Yulan’s clear and beautiful eyes.
Yulan raised his head again, blushing slightly: “Then, then I…”
He twisted his fingers, looking shy: “I want to move into Mr. Chu’s bedroom. Anyway, that room is spacious, and the inner room’s big bed is also empty.”
Of course, the main reason was to facilitate communication with Chu Wang. After all, he was just a switch, so it didn’t matter much.
Strike while the iron is hot.
Xijun was taken aback: “But there has always been the sound of cardiac monitoring in Mr. Chu’s room. I’ve stayed there before and couldn’t sleep well.”
“It’s okay, I can overcome it.” Yulan looked at her with watery eyes, shy but brave as he fought for himself, “And Mr. Chu and I are already married. No matter what his condition is now, as newlyweds, there’s no reason to sleep separately.”
Yulan felt like he was saying something a bit strange halfway through, so he immediately pulled it back: “The key is, if I live with him in the same room, I can take care of him at any time and notice any changes in his condition in a timely manner.”
His words were sincere, almost making Xijun cry.
And behind the closed door, Chu Wang heard every word.
“…”
If it weren’t for yesterday’s experience, he might have believed Xijun.
He floated to the inner room and looked expressionlessly at the long-unused empty bed.
Before long, his room door was opened again.
Obviously, Xijun had been persuaded. Yulan hummed a tuneless tune and, passing through the hovering spirit, officially moved in.
Chu Wang’s father died early, and Chu Laoye was also saddened by this matter and went abroad. After the accident, it was basically Xijun and a few of his former confidants who were maintaining everything.
Originally, everyone thought it could be resolved, but it had been a year already, and there was still no sign of Chu Wang waking up. Internally, it was difficult to avoid other voices, and some senior executives had other thoughts.
Therefore, after having breakfast with Yulan, Xijun was about to go to the company. Before leaving, he explained the passwords and other important matters at home: “As usual, you can push Mr. Chu out to bask in the sun in the afternoon. However, the butler is off today. If you find it troublesome, you can wait for him to come back or wait for me to come back.”
Yulan noted everything down and, after Xijun left, went back to Chu Wang’s bedroom.
Instead of immediately going to Chu Wang’s bedside, he found the phone Chu Wang had given him last night.
Yulan didn’t feel any guilt in his heart: anyway, Chu Wang also needed rest, and there was no need to “turn on” so early.
He glanced at the caregiver and thought.
He didn’t hesitate for too long, after all, this matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later.
Yulan dialed the number. After about half a minute, the call was answered on the other end.
“…Hello?” It was a female voice, sounding somewhat hesitant.
Since Chu Wang’s phone hadn’t been turned on, Yulan also floated closer.
He didn’t expect Yulan to contact his secretary right now.
–
Chu Wang didn’t expect it, and Zhang Yan didn’t expect it even more.
Zhang Yan was stunned for a long time when she saw the number. She stared at it incredulously for several times. Hasn’t Chu Wang shown no signs of waking up for the past year? This is…
She was afraid that the other party would hang up, so she answered without much thought.
Contrary to her expectations, there was actually a boy’s voice on the other end.
“Hello.”
Clear and crisp, with a hint of weakness.
She quickly ran through this voice in her mind, very unfamiliar, not someone she knew.
And as far as she knew, her boss had not had any emotional entanglements with any women, so who was this boy?
Zhang Yan didn’t dare to be careless and remained extremely vigilant.
Just as she had already played out an entire drama of aristocratic love and hatred in her mind, almost thinking that the other party might be a long-hidden illegitimate child of the Chu family, Chu Wang’s own younger brother, or some other more outrageous identity, she heard the other person speak up clearly.
“I’m Yulan, the… “
“Mr. Chu’s new wife.”
–
Zhang Yan didn’t linger in the company for even a minute and hurried to Chu’s villa at the fastest speed.
She knew about this matter. At the time, she thought it was just a psychological comfort for Chu Laoye in a desperate situation, so she didn’t take it seriously.
Moreover, after hearing about the affairs of the Yu family, she just thought that the Yu family had found a scapegoat to throw over to curry favor, and she didn’t want to get involved in such boring and lengthy gossip. Plus, there were too many things to handle after Chu Wang’s accident, so she didn’t attend the wedding yesterday.
She knew this number, even Xijun and Chu Laoye didn’t have it, so how could he get it?
Out of caution, she had to verify it herself.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yan’s boss was hanging on the ceiling, watching Yulan finish the call.
Idle as he was, he carefully analyzed it. When Yulan spoke to Zhang Yan, it was different from when he spoke to himself, but it was quite similar to Xijun.
Chu Wang lowered his head and glanced at Yulan, who was still tidying up his clothes.
Perhaps it was a problem with his sleeping posture, as some of his hair on one side was sticking up, soft little curls swaying with his movements.
Chu Wang watched for a while, unable to speak up to remind him, but really wanted to reach out and fix that wavy hair.
Perhaps it was a manifestation of compulsive behavior, Chu Wang knew that he couldn’t touch anything, but still extended his hand, lightly touching Yulan’s head. The small curl of hair passed through his semi-transparent palm, still sticking up proudly.
Just as he found it interesting, Yulan suddenly sat up with a swish, that small tuft of hair rising abruptly, and then the whole person passed through Chu Wang’s body.
“…”
Zhang Yan arrived soon after, as she often came to see Chu Wang. The people at the door were familiar with her, so they took it for granted to see her go up to the third floor.
Yulan heard the knocking and hurriedly ran over to open the door.
Zhang Yan was dressed in a professional suit, looking competent and elegant. Her breathing was a bit fast at the moment, probably because she was too eager to know the outcome.
She saw the person opening the door for her, who was between adolescence and young adulthood, with features more exquisite and superior than anyone she had ever seen. He was extremely dazzling but not feminine.
Just entering autumn, he wore a thin hoodie, which seemed a bit oversized, making his figure appear even more slender.
Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment and couldn’t speak.
But it was Yulan who welcomed her in and closed the door.
Zhang Yan glanced around the room. The most familiar figure to her naturally was her boss who had been unconscious for a year. What was different from the past was that the ** which had been empty all along had some wrinkles, looking…
“You and Mr. Chu are staying in the same room?”
Yulan was waiting for her to ask this, but still hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly.
Zhang Yan always felt that there must be something she didn’t know, but now the most important thing was not this. She directly asked, “Mr. Yulan… why do you have that phone?”
Yulan took out the encrypted phone: “Is this it?”
Zhang Yan’s expression indeed showed incredible shock.
Yulan pursed his lips and continued, “He gave it to me.”
Zhang Yan still had a belly full of question marks: “But…”
Yulan remained calm and pointed to the cabinet where the phone was placed: “I got it from there.”
Zhang Yan was even more surprised, but professional integrity was more important. She asked seriously, “Then how did Mr. Yulan know about this?”
“Huh?” Yulan felt that this question was a bit strange, but after pausing for a moment, he still answered, “Ah-Wang told me.”
Chu Wang: ?
Zhang Yan: ?
Ah what?
Yulan silently repeated in his mind, “It’s okay, Chu Wang doesn’t know,” “It’s okay, it’s just acting, I’ll explain later,” and then said, “I knew Miss Zhang would be curious.”
“But I actually knew it a long time ago. Ah-Wang told me very early on that if he really had something, he could contact you using this phone.”
Chu Wang: …Very early?
Zhang Yan, who had received professional training, didn’t show too much surprise even if she was shocked: “Mr. Yulan, you and Mr. Chu…”
“I, I…” Yulan said, his nose slightly reddening, “When Ah-Wang had an accident, I never had a chance to come here. I couldn’t come to the Chu family. I waited for a year until yesterday, using the method and password he told me, I finally dialed this phone.”
Zhang Yan still widened her mouth slightly.
“Never mind, I’ll tell you.” Yulan seemed hesitant for a moment but decided to tell the truth.
“In fact, a long time ago, Ah-Wang and I had a… unknown secret affair…”
It’s okay, it’s okay, Chu Wang can’t see or hear anything now.
Yulan laid the groundwork for himself and continued softly, “This relationship wasn’t long, but I knew it was the warmest light in my life!”
“I, I am very sensible. I know we can’t be seen together, I know I’m not worthy of Ah-Wang. After we broke up, I never looked for him again. I originally thought this relationship would never have any sequelae. I decided to quietly be an ex, but, but Ah-Wang had an accident…”
“I stayed awake all night, under stress. I just hated why it wasn’t me suffering this pain! I prayed every night before bed, knocked on the electronic wooden fish every week to accumulate merit, but I didn’t expect to really move the heavens. I actually had the opportunity to reunite with Ah-Wang! Even if he continues to be like this in the future, I don’t mind. I don’t ask for anything. Just being able to accompany Ah-Wang like this forever is already enough for me…”
Zhang Yan’s mouth could swallow eggs: …
And Chu Wang watched this scene with his arms crossed, floating in mid-air.
His soul was being blown by the autumn wind, and his mind was shaken by these words.
Incredible.
