兔子助手

Chapter 224



Just as she was standing on her tiptoes, she suddenly felt herself being lifted up and held.

The familiar position felt completely different from last time. This time, Qin Xian exuded a sense of satisfaction, his body naturally holding her closer, more intimately.

And... more nervously.

Ji Fei was stunned for a moment, her heart skipping several beats. Despite the unsafe height, she felt strangely secure.

However, while other children were being lifted to see the excitement, she was the only adult being held up, which made her feel somewhat embarrassed. She wanted Qin Xian to put her down.

But when she looked down, she noticed Qin Xian seemed shy, his ears burning bright red, almost dripping with blood.

Ji Fei, perhaps in a moment of mischief, reached out with her hand that was draped over Qin Xian\'s neck and pinched his crimson earlobe.

Qin Xian reacted like a startled cat, suddenly looking up at Ji Fei.

Ji Fei felt guilty, let go, and pretended nothing had happened.

[I wasn\'t teasing him, I was just curious if his red ears were warm. But... being so red, was he embarrassed? Haha, who knew even a domineering CEO could be this cute? Is this what they call gap moe? So adorable!]

Qin Xian silently turned back, lowering his gaze, his whole body radiating heat...

"Hey, isn\'t that Ji Fei?"

"Yes, it is! The big star."

"And that man holding her is... so handsome, even more than Qin Chao... How can there be such a stylish man? And his strength is impressive, holding her so steadily!"

Qin Xian paused, hesitantly waiting for Ji Fei\'s reaction. Actually... he wanted everyone to know they were married, but he knew Ji Fei still wanted to work as an entertainer, so perhaps she didn\'t want others to know about her marriage.

[That\'s my husband, you\'re not seeing things wrong. He\'s just that handsome and strong... hehe, having such a husband really makes me proud.]

Qin Xian\'s heart lightened, and he couldn\'t help but feel happy.

Yes, he could make Ji Fei proud!

Obviously, those gossiping people also understood that since they came with Luo Fei, they must be important people, so they didn\'t dare to take photos. After some discussion, they changed the topic.

"Fan Shi is really lucky. Who would have thought that girl who had such a terrible time in high school would end up marrying into a wealthy family?"

"I think Luo Fei started feeling sorry for her back then, and pity turned into love. Men always like women who trigger their protective instincts."

"Although I don\'t like Fan Shi\'s overly weak personality that never fights back, she really did have it rough in the past. Being bullied by school bullies for so long, coming to school with injuries almost every day. At least now she\'s finally found happiness."

"Actually, it\'s been quite a while since those past events. I thought Fan Shi\'s personality would have changed somewhat when we saw her again, especially after being pampered by Luo Fei for so many years. But she seems almost the same as in high school, timid and fearful."

"More than that, it\'s her wedding day, but since the morning makeup session, she\'s had this gloomy, sad expression. Only someone with Luo Fei\'s sunny disposition could face her every day without being affected by her negative energy."

"I guess the shadows from school days really do follow you forever."

"Not necessarily, pregnancy hormones could also be affecting her."

These two were probably Fan Shi\'s high school classmates, which explained why they couldn\'t stop gossiping about the past.

As Ji Fei listened, she observed Fan Shi and indeed noticed something odd about her expression, even though Luo Fei was down on one knee, declaring his love.

Usually, brides either laugh joyously or cry tears of happiness.

But Fan Shi was different - her eyes were flickering, distracted, and her smile seemed very forced.

It was strange.

Before Ji Fei could think more about it, everyone started cheering. The wedding games were over, and since there were no family members from the bride\'s side, many ceremonies were skipped, and they went straight to taking the bride to the Luo family home.

At the Luo residence, Luo Fei wouldn\'t let Fan Shi walk, carrying her in his arms as they entered.

He clearly cherished his wife deeply.

Along the way, they naturally received many guests\' blessings.

"Congratulations!"

"Thank you, thank you."

"Congratulations..."

Suddenly, two figures appeared in the crowd.

Luo Fei heard the congratulations and said thanks, but his gaze paused briefly, somewhat surprised to see these two unfamiliar guests.

At that moment, he noticed Fan Shi suddenly starting to tremble uncontrollably in his arms.

"What\'s wrong?" Luo Fei asked worriedly.

Fan Shi shook her head, burying her face in Luo Fei\'s chest, seemingly not wanting him to see her expression.

Thinking Fan Shi was feeling unwell, Luo Fei quickened his pace, wanting to get her to the bridal chamber to rest as soon as possible.

He didn\'t notice that Fan Shi was secretly watching the two retreating figures through the gap in his arms, her eyes gradually becoming misty.

"Heh heh."

Wu Xingqing suddenly heard her boyfriend snickering and couldn\'t help but look at him curiously.

Tang Yu caught himself and quickly hugged Wu Xingqing, saying, "I\'m so envious, I want to marry you soon too."

Wu Xingqing immediately felt uncomfortable and said, "We can only discuss marriage after dating for more than two years."

A flash of impatience crossed Tang Yu\'s face as he mentally cursed her old-fashioned prudishness.

Just then, Tang Yu suddenly saw someone waving at him - it was Luo\'s Father\'s assistant.

Tang Yu\'s eyes flickered, and after making an excuse to Wu Xingqing, he left alone.

Seeing him, the assistant frowned slightly, "The boss wants to see you, follow me."

Tang Yu smiled and followed the assistant toward the Luo family\'s huge backyard garden.

After winding around for a while, hearing some dog barking, they finally found Luo\'s Father, wearing the father-of-the-groom boutonnière, in a secluded corner.

Before Tang Yu could speak, Luo\'s Father frowned and scolded, "What are you doing here? Who told you to come?"

"Dad, even if big brother doesn\'t know about my existence, he\'s still my brother. For such an important event as his wedding, I wanted to witness it," Tang Yu said earnestly.

Luo\'s Father was taken aback, "You\'re really not here to cause trouble? Your mother should have explained the situation to you. I can\'t publicly acknowledge your identity now, you can\'t cause me problems at an occasion like this."

"How could I? Dad, I even brought my girlfriend today, wanting you to see her - the Wu family\'s eldest daughter, Wu Xingqing."

"What! You\'re dating her? How did their family agree? You really..." Luo\'s Father was very surprised.

Tang Yu said, "Her father doesn\'t interfere with her decisions, regardless of background or status. As long as I win her over... although... given my current situation, even if we marry in the future, I might have to take her family name, so..."

Luo\'s Father couldn\'t help but frown, seemingly weighing something in his mind.

"I understand. Go back to your girlfriend for now, we\'ll discuss this later."

Tang Yu put his hands in his pockets, unable to suppress his smile as he turned to leave.

Passing by a man-high hedge, he heard dog barking again, though it seemed to stop abruptly, which was strange.

Tang Yu didn\'t notice, but behind the hedge were two people and three dogs.

Ji Fei had heard that Luo Fei had adopted several retired police dogs, and being bored while waiting for the bride to change, Qin Xian suggested taking her to see them. He knew she would like it, and sure enough, Ji Fei was delighted to go play with the dogs.

The butler had led them there and left, and while they were playing, they unexpectedly overheard the secret conversation.

Qin Xian\'s expression was displeased.

Ji Fei\'s mouth fell open as she held a dog\'s head with one hand, covering its mouth.

[Oh my goodness, what a scandal! Rich families really do have illegitimate children! I heard from Qin\'s Mom before that the Luo couple had a harmonious relationship, a rare case of true love in an arranged marriage, but who knew there was such a big secret! Men, really, hmph!]

[Luo Fei doesn\'t know about this yet. Now that we\'ve heard this, should we tell on them? We probably shouldn\'t say anything on such a joyous occasion. Wu Xingqing\'s boyfriend, that Tang Yu, judging from his voice-over, is clearly using Wu Xingqing as a bargaining chip to force Luo\'s Father to acknowledge him as a legitimate heir. How despicable. I barely know Wu Xingqing, but should I find a chance to warn her?]

While thinking about this, a conversation between Luo\'s Father and his assistant drifted over.

"Have someone keep an eye on that boy. Don\'t let him cause any trouble."

"Boss, don\'t you trust the young master?"

"I sent him and his mother abroad back then because of his fight with Luo Fei. It left someone disfigured and created such deep hatred. With his temperament, I doubt he\'ll easily let go of that old grudge. Today is an important day for our family; we can\'t have any embarrassing incidents."

[What? They fought? Weren\'t they strangers? Someone was disfigured? What\'s going on? Let me look into this.]

Qin Xian was stunned. A fight? Disfigurement? Tang Yu?

All the clues came together.

Qin Xian\'s eyes flickered with sudden realization as he remembered - that school bully from high school.

[What? What? WHAT?????!!!]
