The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

"Everyone sit down and shuffle the cards."

Richard knew that Bian Xiaoyue was really hurt by him. He had tried to send her messages these days, but all those messages fell on deaf ears. Bian Xiaoyue did not reply a single word. Richard's fear of the huge gap between their family backgrounds was replaced by another fear at that moment. That fear was that he might lose Bian Xiaoyue.

Regardless of whether Bian Xiaoyue paid attention to him or not, Richard finally took the initiative. He put the coat in his hand on Bian Xiaoyue without saying a word.

Bian Xiaoyue resisted at first and tried to pull the coat off, saying, "I'm not cold, you don't have to pretend."

However, Richard simply pressed Bian Xiaoyue's shoulder and reached out to touch Bian Xiaoyue's hand on the mahjong table.

The back of my hands are cold.

Bian Xiaoyue was upset by the touch for a second. She wanted to bite her nails again. She still hadn't gotten rid of this habit after all these years. When she put her finger to her mouth, Richard patted her shoulder again.

"Stop biting your nails. Didn't you say bare nails don't look good on camera?"

Bian Xiaoyue was depressed, and she didn't understand why this man understood her so well. He could see through everything she wanted to do. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and a fire was rising to her head.

I couldn't help but get angry and said, "When did I say that? I want to bite, so I bite. What's it to you?"

"You said this when you were a guest on a domestic talk show last year."

Richard mentioned this program very naturally, which even Bian Xiaoyue herself had almost forgotten.

After thinking for a long time, I realized that she had participated in this program. But how did Richard know about it?

Before Bian Xiaoyue could ask, Richard took the initiative to tell her everything: "I have watched that show. I have watched every show you have done."

Richard's words stunned Nie Zheng. She really didn't expect Richard to be so straightforward today. She felt relieved that the straight man finally got it.

This also made Bian Xiaoyue unable to do it. She wondered if she was dreaming. Her already hard heart moved again.

It's so annoying, I wouldn't have come if I had known...

On the other side, Chong Jianzhi had just come back from a phone call and was stunned when he saw Bian Xiaoyue sitting in his seat. Then he looked at his watch and asked her in confusion, "Didn't you finish the show at seven? How come you're here at eight?"

Bian Xiaoyue would never admit that she came here just to see Richard earlier, so she didn't even go back to the hotel after the filming and just took off her makeup.

“…It wasn’t far.”

Bian Xiaoyue was in a mess, and felt a little embarrassed when Chong Jianzhi asked her this question. She didn't want to lose face in front of Richard.

Nie Zheng was very thoughtful and had seen through everything. She quickly changed the subject: "Stop talking, stop talking. Do you still want to play mahjong?"

Chong Jianzhi had some work to do, so he went back to his room, leaving the four of them to play mahjong.

Nie Zheng was not really good at playing mahjong, but she had been forced to play a few times by her roommates in college. She did understand the rules, but that was just the extent of "understanding". Playing mahjong was all about luck, and counting cards did not exist for her.

Richard and Bian Xiaoyue had a great time. Bian Xiaoyue said that when they had no classes in the UK, they felt bored and so they formed a group to play mahjong.

"Chong Jianzhi never participates." Bian Xiaoyue's expression was extremely disgusted, "He would just rush out of the room and tell us to keep our voices down."

During the mahjong game, Nie Zheng discovered that Chen Hua was a bad player but loved to play. Although he played on his phone every day, he was not very good at it. He always threw a card out and took it back. Old players like Richard and Bian Xiaoyue knew what the other player had when they saw Chen Hua's operation.

How is this still playing?

Of course, the water was released.

The original purpose of playing mahjong this time was to make old man Chen Hua happy. Richard knew what cards he wanted, so he kept feeding them to him without saying anything.

"Five items."

Old man Chen Hua looked overjoyed: "Bang!"

"Grandpa, you are so lucky." I have to say, Bian Xiaoyue is really sweet. "I am so envious."

Old man Chen Hua smiled and said, "I am a little more lucky today."

Nie Zheng touched the cards, thought carefully about the cards that old man Chen Hua had just played, and threw the "50,000" in his hand away.

"Bullshit!"

As expected, Nie Zheng, Bian Xiaoyue and Richard looked at each other secretly. Those who did not win were happier than those who did.

"Grandpa, with this mahjong machine, you can play with your children and neighbors."

Bian Xiaoyue tried to find another topic to talk about, but as soon as she finished speaking, old man Chen Hua's face changed, as if something had touched his brow, and he no longer had the joy he had just had when he won the game.

Nie Zheng noticed: "Grandpa Chen, what's wrong with you? Is it a bit cold outside? How about we stop playing here today?"

Old man Chen Hua sighed deeply and shook his head, as if something sad was mentioned. He turned around and unplugged the mahjong machine.

Several people looked at each other, sitting in their seats feeling a little nervous, but not daring to leave easily.

"What difference does it make whether I have a son or a daughter? They won't come back to see me all year round, except when they come to me for help when something happens."

"They may be busy..." Richard's words of comfort sounded like a finishing blow.

A sneer: "My house in Bei'an was to be demolished at that time, and I didn't see how busy they were. They stayed at my house for half a month, fearing that someone would get less money."

"..."

Perhaps because he was enjoying playing mahjong, old man Chen Hua was not as resistant to the few people as he was at the beginning. He seemed to have a lot of grievances in his heart and a lot to say.

"Yixue is the eldest son's child. The eldest son went to work in Beijing a few years ago, so my husband and I took care of the child. We took care of him for 18 years. My husband passed away, and I never saw Yixue get into college. I retired early from school, and I always felt empty inside. Fortunately, I was working as a research and development consultant for your parents in Touyun at that time. They were both very nice people, always thinking about me, and they would come to play cards with me like this during holidays."

Nie Zheng had almost no impression of what Chen Hua said. Chong Jianzhi said that Chen Hua had been living in the suburbs of Ningjiang before. He didn't like to socialize with people, so his parents usually visited him during holidays.

"I'm actually very sad that your parents are gone. They were people who really loved fragrance, and they were kind and humane." Old man Chen Hua lit up a cigarette and smoked, "They are so much better than my unfilial children."

Nie Zheng felt a little sad when she heard Chen Hua mention his parents. She comforted the old man: "Fortunately, you still have a filial grandson."

Elder Chen Hua nodded. When he mentioned Chen Yixue, he couldn't suppress his pride: "Yixue is a good kid. He has a good job in Bei'an. He quit his job to take care of me."

Nie Zheng actually knew all this. Before returning to the village to shoot videos for old man Chen Hua, Chen Yixue had been running a traditional Chinese medicine clinic in Bei'an and had a considerable income.

Later, because Chen Hua fell down in the village, Chen Yixue was worried that he might have another accident, so she took him to Bei'an to live with him. But Chen Hua was used to staying in the village, and he couldn't bear to leave the flowers and plants he raised, as well as the open yard.

In the end, Chen Yixue compromised. He didn't want the old man to live such an unhappy life, so he closed his clinic in the city and returned to the village to take care of the old man wholeheartedly.
