Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 197 The Controversy Caused by the Photograph (2)

Chi's mother paused, then looked at Yan Zuozuo, "Zuozuo, explain to Mom."

Before Yan Zuozuo could speak, Meng Xinyu's face turned pale, and she quickly said, "Auntie, of course she won't admit it, you can't be fooled by her!"

“Even in a trial, a judge would give both sides their side of the story. Zuo Zuo is my daughter-in-law, so of course I want to hear what she has to say,” Mrs. Chi said calmly, showing no favoritism towards either Meng Xinyu or Yan Zuo Zuo.

Yan Zuozuo glanced at Chi Moqing, explained her work meeting with Ou Luhan, and then said, "He did put his arm around my shoulder, but we're just friends, nothing more."

"You're talking nonsense! You're clearly having an affair!" Meng Xinyu retorted fiercely.

Chi Moqing glared at her sharply, and Meng Xinyu immediately shut up.

“Xinyu, should we ask other photographers to verify this? You know, your aunt has always liked you and trusted you, but I don’t like anyone taking advantage of my liking and trust to do whatever they want.”

Meng Xinyu's eyes flickered, and suddenly she burst into tears. "Auntie, cousin, I know I was wrong. It's all my fault. I was jealous of Yan Zuozuo. I was out of my mind to do that. Please forgive me, okay? I admit my mistake, I apologize..."

Chi Moqing remained silent, his eyes unfathomable.

Chi's mother sighed softly. Seeing Meng Xinyu crying like a baby, even though she was angry about what she had done, she was still her only niece and couldn't help but be a little biased. So she said, "Xinyu is still a child. She is young and doesn't know any better. I think we should let it go."

"So Mom means that Zuo Zuo deserved to be framed, and that as long as she says she's young, she can be forgiven for whatever mistakes she makes in the future?" Chi Moqing narrowed her eyes and said in an unhappy tone.

"Cousin, I'm your sister! Do you really want to hand me over to the police?"

Chi Moqing glared at her, his face ashen: "Is this your attitude of admitting your mistake?"

Chi's mother was also a little unhappy. How could her child, whom she had watched grow up, have become so unruly and willful?

"Auntie, I really know I was wrong, but look at my cousin's attitude! He's completely ungrateful after marrying his wife, it's too much!" Meng Xinyu was very flustered and could only rely on Chi's mother now, so she tried her best to smear Chi Moqing.

Mother Chi frowned, displeased with Meng Xinyu's words. "Mo Qing is my son. Whether he's estranged from his own family or not, I, as his mother, know better than you. You don't need to tell me."

Meng Xinyu stiffened, meeting Chi's mother's displeased gaze, and quickly said, "Auntie, that's not what I meant, I..."

"Alright, don't say anything more. I have a bit of a headache, I'm going upstairs to rest. You can handle the rest yourselves, don't bother me." With that, Chi's mother walked upstairs, clearly not intending to help Meng Xinyu.

As she passed by Yan Zuozuo, she smiled and said, "Zuozuo, the two children should be awake by now. Come with me to see them. They haven't seen you for several days and haven't come looking for you. Don't forget about your mother."

Yan Zuozuo nodded and followed Chi's mother upstairs.

In the nursery, the two children were still sleeping. Yan Zuozuo kissed them and watched them for a while before being pulled into the bedroom by Chi's mother, who said earnestly, "I'm sorry you were wronged just now, but if I hadn't done this, Xinyu would still have made a fuss. Now that's done, she knows she's in the wrong and will behave for a while. Don't blame your mother."

Yan Zuozuo then understood Chi's mother's good intentions. If she insisted on helping her, Meng Xinyu might not be convinced. With such conclusive evidence, she had no choice but to admit it.

"No, I should thank Mom for standing up for me and not doubting me." After a pause, she added, "Mom, Mo Qing and I are truly in love. I will never do anything to betray him in my life. You can believe me."

Chi's mother smiled: "Silly child, how could I not believe you? Alright, let's leave this matter alone and let Mo Qing handle it. Protecting his wife is his responsibility. Tell me, what have you all been busy with lately?"

When Yan Zuozuo saw that Chi's mother really didn't doubt her, she breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting with Chi's mother about recent interesting things. She also told her about Cai Keren's affair with the civil servant. It was clear that Chi's mother was very happy.

In the living room, Meng Xinyu stood there trembling, not daring to look Chi Moqing in the eye. "Cousin, I really know I was wrong. Please don't do this, I'm scared..."

"If you were really scared, you wouldn't have done this. You framed her. If my parents hadn't investigated carefully today, what would have happened to Zuo Zuo? I really didn't expect that my cousin, whom I watched grow up, would become so vicious!"

Meng Xinyu burst into tears. She had only been relying on her relationship with the Chi family to bully others, and now that even Chi's mother wasn't helping her, she was naturally terrified. She sobbed uncontrollably, "Cousin, I was really wrong! I was just jealous of her! We grew up together. You used to be so good to me, but after that woman came along, you stopped being so nice to me. I feel so unbalanced..."

"And then there's Young Master Ou. I like him so much, but he rejected me and smiled at Yan Zuozuo instead. Why is that? She's not as pretty as me, not as rich as me, and not as classy as me. Why does everyone like her and not me? I'm not convinced!"

"Because she's kinder and more content than you. Because you're vain, infatuated, and good for nothing except your family's money!" Chi Moqing said aggressively, his eyes filled with icy coldness.

Each word, each sentence, was like a knife slashing heavily into Meng Xinyu's heart. She suddenly realized that Chi Moqing was no longer the cousin who doted on her; his heart had long been stolen by that vixen Yan Zuozuo.

She gritted her teeth: "That's not true at all! You wait and see, I'll make something of myself and show you! I'm not completely useless!"

Chi Moqing snorted coldly: "I'm looking forward to it, but we need to settle accounts with you first for framing Zuo Zuo today."

"What do you mean?" Meng Xinyu froze, then suddenly burst into tears. "Cousin, please forgive me for being momentarily blinded by greed. I promise I'll never ruin your relationship with Yan Zuozuo again. I won't bother you anymore. Please, cousin, let me go..."

Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes. If she weren't his cousin, he would have already attacked her. He stared intently at Meng Xinyu, who was sobbing uncontrollably, and clenched his fists. Fortunately, his parents were reasonable; otherwise, how could Yan Zuozuo stay in the Chi family? Her apology could very well have ruined his marriage!

Chi Moqing just stared at her coldly until the nanny came over and said, "Madam's sister has arrived."

Meng Xinyu's mother...

By the time Yan Zuozuo came downstairs, Meng Xinyu had already left. She looked around curiously, wanting to ask her where she was, but remembering what had just happened, she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

That evening, they stayed at the military compound. After dinner, the two of them took a walk outside hand in hand. Yan Zuozuo then asked curiously, "Where's Meng Xinyu?"

Chi Moqing's face turned cold: "They were sent to the countryside for labor."

"Huh?" Yan Zuozuo blinked, somewhat incredulous. "What do you mean?"

"I've been spoiled at home and have never experienced hardship. It'll be a good opportunity to go to the countryside to toughen myself up and see if I can get rid of all my bad habits!"

This was a result Yan Zuozuo hadn't expected. Just imagining a rich young lady going to the countryside to farm and feed pigs was... hilarious.

Seeing her strange smile, Chi Moqing reached out and pinched her nose, saying, "You're still smiling? I've really offended Auntie this time. I bet she won't want to see me for a long time."

Yan Zuozuo chuckled, tiptoed, and planted a kiss on his lips. "Let my husband suffer, give me a kiss, mwah."

Chi Moqing looked at her amusedly: "Is that enough? Far from it!" After saying that, he kissed her lips, sucking and licking, his nimble tongue prying open her lips and teeth, the tip of his tongue going deep inside.

The heat rose as his tongue swirled in her mouth, and Yan Zuozuo quickly succumbed, collapsing limply into his arms, her body burning with desire. Chi Moqing was in no better shape, his body aching, and the next second he carried her home.

Along the way, Yan Zuozuo encountered several acquaintances, and felt extremely embarrassed. She buried her face in Chi Moqing's chest and pinched him hard, calling him a "big pervert!"

So, Chi Moqing diligently watered her again all night, but the next day she was still woken up by the sound of morning exercises outside, her whole body aching. So, she pinched Chi Moqing hard again.

Chi Moqing was also aggrieved. It wasn't just him who was enjoying it, so why did they always pinch him?

As soon as Yan Zuozuo arrived at work, Fisher handed her over to his office. She glanced at his desk and saw that instead of pancakes and coffee, it was roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and coffee. She was speechless, thinking, "Does this mean tomorrow's breakfast will be fried dough sticks and coffee?"

The master is indeed a master; he is so creative!

"What does the director want with me?" she asked, sitting across from him.

Fisher asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Yan Zuozuo nodded awkwardly, then asked, "Is the director taking this as a starting point and beginning to explore a fusion of Chinese and Western breakfast options?"

Fisher chuckled and waved the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) in his hand. "Let me tell you, it's actually quite delicious like this. I'm planning to have fried dough sticks and coffee tomorrow morning. As a designer, you have to know how to be innovative, hahaha."

Yan Zuozuo no longer wanted to talk. She felt that she might see all sorts of strange scenes in the future, such as steamed buns with coffee or dumplings with coffee.

After a pause, Fisher coughed twice and said, "What happened to Eight Carat yesterday?"

Fisher probably already knew, and she didn't hide anything, nodding and saying, "Yes, the director's friend got into a fight with my husband." Even now, she was still grinding her teeth in anger. How dare Ou Luhan fight with her husband? Didn't she know she was her husband's property? She deserved to be beaten!

Of course, her husband is also her property, and she refuses to let any other woman covet him!

"Oh, so who won in the end?" Fisher's eyes lit up, looking excitedly gossipy.

"..." Yan Zuozuo's lips twitched. "Director, you're very interested?"

Fisher was taken aback, quickly suppressing his overly excited emotions. He coughed twice and said seriously, "Since the problem occurred while you were working, of course I need to find out who won."

This undying gossip-loving heart.

Yan Zuozuo frowned: "No one won or lost, everyone got hurt."

"Huh? Young Master Ou didn't win? This guy even lied to me. Let's go back and give him a couple of kicks first!" Fisher snorted twice, and heard the crows cawing loudly above Yan Zuozuo's head.

"Director, you didn't call me just to ask about gossip, did you?" Yan Zuozuo asked irritably.

“Of course not, do you think I’m that kind of boring person?” Fisher immediately became serious and said, “I’m here to apologize to you.”

Huh? What do you mean?
