Two-Faced Husband, Have Some Decency!

Panda Novel

Qi Chenglin was driving. He took a glance at Qi Chengzhi, but did not dare to speak out.

“All right then, goodnight.” Song Yu felt reassured now, but was reluctant to end the call.

Qi Chengzhi laid back on the chair, frowning. He rubbed the corner of his eyes, but when he spoke, there was no difference in his tone. “Is this the reason why you haven’t slept yet? You were waiting for my call?”

“Yeah.” Song Yu turned over, lying on her right side, putting her cellphone in between her ear and the pillow. She pulled her blanket up to her chin, burying the tip of her chin under the blanket. “You’re not here. So, I can’t sleep.”

Qi Chengzhi’s lips curled into a tender smile. It seemed that his body was feeling better now. Her words had made his heart melt.

“Why don’t I leave now to meet you?” asked Qi Chengzhi softly.

Qi Chenglin, who was sitting next to Qi Chengzhi, did not doubt his words. If Song Yu agreed to Qi Chengzhi, Qi Chengzhi would turn around instantly and drive to Song Yu’s house. He would definitely not go to the hospital.

“Don’t be silly. Get to bed early today,” whispered Song Yu. “I feel better now after hearing your voice.”

“Me too.” The smile on Qi Chengzhi’s face never left.

Song Yu had no idea that what he meant differed from hers.

“I’m ending the call then. See you tomorrow.” Song Yu moved slightly, adjusting herself to a more comfortable position. Before she ended the call, she whispered, “Love you.”

Qi Chengzhi smiled. Although Song Yu had ended the call, he spoke into the cellphone softly, “See you tomorrow.”

He put his cellphone down. Then, he realized that Song Yu would never wait for his reply every time she finished saying she loved him.

At the beginning, he thought that it was because she was shy. However, a few times later, he understood that it was because she had always been confident in him. She had never doubted his love, surely she did not need to hear him say it out loud.

On the other hand, she would never know how deep his love for her was at this moment.

Qi Chenglin stopped the car at the entrance of Chutian Hospital. When Qi Chengzhi got out of the car, he had already felt much better. He did not need Qi Chenglin’s support anymore.

While Chu Zhaoyang was waiting for him at the entrance, he had informed the doctor to get ready at the outpatient clinic.

When Chu Zhaoyang saw Qi Chengzhi and Qi Chenglin, he only nodded to them without a word. However, his expression was more serious than usual.

He had asked someone to prepare a wheelchair, but Qi Chengzhi took a glance at it and said, “I’m going to have my wedding tomorrow. It’ll be such ill-fortune to sit in this tonight.”

Chu Zhaoyang glanced at the wheelchair and nodded. He agreed sincerely. “True.”

After ascertaining that Qi Chengzhi had no problem walking himself, the three of them went upstairs.

The doctor, who had been woken up by Chu Zhaoyang in his bed, did a check-up on Qi Chengzhi. Other than that, he sent Qi Chengzhi for a scan. Fortunately, there was no serious injury.

Qi Chengzhi pointed at the gauze on his forehead which was wrapped by Aunt Yang and said, “Change it to a band-aid.”

The doctor had already checked on the wound. It was not big, not to mention that it was treated well too. However, one band-aid would not be able to cover it. Therefore, the doctor had to put on two band-aids for him. He knew that Qi Chengzhi was getting married tomorrow, so, he had different circumstances.

“This will do temporarily. However, after the wedding, you have to clean it immediately. Then, wrap it up with the gauze again,” said the doctor.

…

…

Qi Chenglin fetched Qi Chengzhi back to Viewpark Residence. However, Qi Chenglin did not leave immediately. After telling Qi Chengzhi to go upstairs and rest, he made a call to Cheng Dongge instantly and told him about tonight’s car accident.

Cheng Dongge called Chang Lai immediately. He told Chang Lai to send Qi Chengzhi’s car for an inspection, hoping that they would discover something. Other than that, he contacted some people to investigate the accident.

Cheng Dongge was also suspecting Jian Yi. He told them to look into Jian Yi too while conducting the investigation.

…

…

The next day, in the early morning, Qi Chenglin, Yan Beicheng and the others gathered at Viewpark Residence.

They did not drive the cars that they usually drove. As they were not twenty-year-old teens who liked to show off anymore, theirs were mostly sleeper cars. Even when their cars were all luxury brands, staidness was their main priority when buying a car. Plus, prices were insignificant in comparison to their considerable standing.

For example, Li Zhuoan usually drove a Maserati. On the other hand, Yan Beicheng, who had a bad boy figure, drove a Cherokee instead, which had only cost him a few million in total. This was because even cars could not be their symbol of status; their standing in the community was too high. Therefore, it was unnecessary for them to drive luxury cars just to show off amongst themselves. Plus, they were unconcerned about how grandeur their cars were, the fondness towards their cars was their first priority.

Consequently, due to today’s wedding, these people had to borrow their cars from their elders. The cars that they borrowed were normally kept in the garage by the elders and not driven regularly.

Qi Chengzhi borrowed a Rolls-Royce EWB from Qilin Technology as the leader-in-wedding car. Yan Beicheng came with a Mulsanne, whereas Chu Zhaoyang arrived with a Maybach. Wei Ziqi had even borrowed the Phantom from Wei Minghao.

Including Gui Zhiqian, Han Zhuoli and the other two of them from the Zhao family and Qin family, there were eight people in total. There were now four Phantoms and three Mulsannes in total.

As for the car models, Qi Chengzhi did not have any prerequisite. He did not require the cars to be similar. Therefore, after the discussion amongst the seven of them, they decided to drive the cars that had similar grades and represented staidness.

Aunt Yang followed Qi Chengzhi and went downstairs. She had also been invited to the wedding and waited at the Imperial Terrace.

To hide the band-aids on his forehead, Qi Chengzhi had even requested the hairstylist to style his hair.

Then, he got into the wedding car. This car was driven by Qi Chenglin.

Qi Chenglin took out his cellphone and clicked on Wechat. He opened the newly created private group chat which was created especially for the wedding. Then, he pressed on the “hold-to-talk” button and spoke, “Let’s go. Follow closely everyone.”

“Roger!” This was the voice of Yan Beicheng.

“Roger!” This was the voice of Han Zhuoli.

“Roger!” This was the voice of Gui Zhiqian.

“Roger!” This was the voice of Wei Ziqi.

“Roger!” This was the one from Zhao family.

“Roger!” This was the one from Qin family.

“…” There was only the sound of breath for this. It was Chu Zhaoyang.

There were eight cars in a row; it was not a big number. Nowadays, when ordinary people were getting married, the number of their wedding cars was also around this quantity.

However, the quality of Qi Chengzhi and his friends’ cars, was making the passerby’s heart skip a beat. The wedding car lead, which was the car that Qi Chengzhi was in, was a Rolls-Royce Phantom II EWB. That car alone already cost forty-five million. If they were to add up the value of the other seven cars, the amount would be in the billions. The rest of the few ten million could just simply be rounded up as zeros.

When this row of cars journeyed to Dynasty, all the passersby on the road hid away as far as possible. Although these eight cars were driving slowly, no one dared to go near and overtake them. They feared that they would accidentally scratch on one of them and would not have the ability to solve the problem.

If their character was not quite up to the mark, they would still not be able to afford the compensation even when they sold themselves off in a row.

Before Yan Beicheng and the others gathered in Viewpark Residence, the situation was better when they were driving alone. However, when they were rushing off to the wedding after the congregation in Viewpark Residence, every one of them did not have the slightest idea that their cars were terrifying other people. Their cars were arranged in a row like a gigantic monster, gaining a huge advantage while overtaking the others. Every driver who had been overtaken was frightened to death.

One of the drivers had even stopped his car by the side as he did not have the courage to continue his journey. His heart skipped a beat as he was frightened, mumbling with disapproval, “Geez! If I’ve gotten a scratch on the car I rented, I would still have to compensate the owner. Why in the world do you want to show off?!”

Therefore, though the eight cars were well-behaved on the road, none of the cars had the courage to follow behind still. The lane that they were driving on was having no hindrance too.

So, they drove into the neighborhood of Song Yu’s house eye-catchingly. From the moment they arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood, the residents had their eyes and mouths wide open. Watching the row of cars coming through, the young adults were screaming in excitement. All of them were rushing to take photos with their cell phones.

“What a scene! Whose family is having their wedding?”

“It’s the sixth building. The Song family. I heard that their daughter has met a rich guy.”

“Yo! Look at this! How rich is he? The age of the guy would not be young already, right?”

“I’m not sure about this. I’ve never seen the son-in-law.”

Qi Chenglin and the others parked their cars in the slots that Song Donglin and Yu Qianying had reserved. Obviously, Song Donglin and Yu Qianying had also not expected this. Though there were only eight cars, the length in total was long.

The parking slots that Song Donglin and Yu Qianying occupied were already very spacious, but it was still not enough.

Fortunately, there was no one parking at the back. Han Zhuoli, who was the last in line, succeeded in parking his car after adjusting its position carefully.

Then, Han Zhuoli got out of the car and wiped his forehead with the back of his hand. He was wiping the sweat away while flapping his collar. “It’s a real challenge to park in this neighborhood.”

Qi Chengzhi was the first to stride to Song Yu’s house. However, he was stopped at the entrance of the staircase.

One glance at it, Lu Nanxi was waiting at the entrance with Wei Ran. Lu Nanxi shoved a wireless microphone into Qi Chengzhi’s hand while carrying a CD player at the same time. She said, “Young Master Cheng, sing the song “Forever Love” here. Then, I’ll allow you to go through.”

Qi Chengzhi raised his eyebrows. At that time, when they were at the KTV, he did not sing in front of Yan Beicheng and the rest of them. However, now they were telling him to sing in front of all the residents in the neighborhood?

Wei Ziqi looked at Wei Ran, but Wei Ran raised both of her hands, showing her helplessness. She was telling him that Lu Nanxi was the one in charge now.

Now that Fang Boran was in Dynasty, Lu Nanxi was beyond their control. She was like a wild monkey that had just returned to the forest.

“Be quick! Don’t forget that you are doing this for your bride! Song Yu is waiting upstairs for it!” urged Lu Nanxi.

Qi Chengzhi cleared his throat and switched on the microphone. When Lu Nanxi noticed it, she played the music instantly.

“Love you, not only because you’re beautiful…

“I’m loving you deeper and deeper…

“Every emotion in your eyes touches my heart…

“Because you’ve helped me see forever…”

Song Yu listened to his singing through the window. He was singing downstairs but he was out of key. Lu Nanxi had played the one without lyrics, in which the accompaniment was louder. However, to her surprise, it was still unable to cover Qi Chengzhi’s tone-deafness. Plus, Qi Chengzhi was singing out of rhythm and tempo. It sounded funny, but maybe because it was Qi Chengzhi who sang it, Song Yu only took notice of the magnetic voice and the deep affections of his in his singing.

Suddenly, Song Yu became teary. Although they had already registered their marriage, but only after today’s wedding, would she be officially and truly married to him.

After a while, the singing stopped. She heard Qi Chengyue shouting outside the bedroom door, “Song Yu, my big brother is coming up!”

Not long after, she heard Yu Qianying’s cheerful talk outside, inviting the eight men into the house.

Now that the eight of them were standing in a row, the house seemed to be full of people.

Qi Chengyue smiled, forming dimples on both sides of her face. Her dimples were at the corner of her smile. She called out sweetly, “Big brother!”

“What do you have? Let’s bring it on!” said Yan Beicheng boldly while rolling up his sleeves.

“Hahahahaha!” Qi Chengyue laughed with a cunning look.

Immediately, Ruan Danchen brought out a trolley, shouting, “Excuse me! Please excuse me!”

A whiff of noodle soup entered the room. The eight of them saw that it was a two-tier dining trolley. There were ten bowls of noodles on each of the tier platform. The ingredients in the noodles were more than enough, not to mention that all of them were dining bowls too.

There was Choy Sum, poached egg, mushroom, and beef. Besides, there was this thick soup with a savory aroma, which was boiled with pork bones. All of them could not help but drool by the smell of it.

Yu Qianying, who was standing beside them, felt sorry for these men.

She could not do anything with the ladies. Qi Chengyue had insisted to help her out in the kitchen. Before four o’clock in the morning, she had already arrived with Ruan Danchen.

Qi Chengyue brushed her right hand across the bowls, showing them the noodles and said, “Do you want to enter the room? It’s easy this time.”

She took out her cellphone and clicked on the stopwatch. Five minutes was shown on the screen.

“If you can finish these twenty bowls of noodles in five minutes, we will instantly let you go in. They must be finished without any leftovers.” Qi Chengyue challenged them, eyeing the eight of them who stood in front of her. “Do you accept the challenge or not? Since you accept it, I will start the stopwatch now.”

Qi Chenglin could not help but glare at her. What kind of dirty trick was this?

He took off his suit and rolled up the sleeves, even loosening his tie. “Bring it on!”

One by one, the rest of them also loosened up their suits after Qi Chenglin. They had spent the entire morning dressing themselves up to look smart, but now they had to ruin it all with their bare hands. Every one of them was really upset about it.

Chu Zhaoyang threw his suit silently on the floor, he had even loosened the button of his collar. Luckily, he had not eaten anything in the morning as he had to leave early.

Qi Chengyue shouted, “Start!”

As soon as she started the timer, the men picked up the bowls and started to shove the food into their throats. They were eating without bothering about their image.

In the end, there were four bowls left. Each bowl was shared by two people. They gobbled them up together with their foreheads touching another.

Qi Chengyue took the opportunity to photograph all of their messy appearances. Every one of them had lost the reputation the members of The Great Eight Families should have. They had lost their elegant figures as gentlemen and the perfect reputation that they had given to the public was destroyed.

When the door was opened, Song Yu was only able to hear the endless burps that were coming from behind the door. “Burp… Burp…” It kept on going.

Qi Chengzhi put one hand on his stomach and tried to walk towards her calmly. However, after a few steps, he stopped.

Song Yu saw that he had moved to the wall without her notice and rested his hand on the wall furtively. His face was looking a little pale. It was the look of overeating and nausea.

“Are you alright?” asked Song Yu with concern. She was not allowed to get out of the bed at this moment. Therefore, she was anxious about his condition.

Qi Chengzhi shook his head, trying his best not to burp anymore. Then, he walked over to her. “Didn’t you say that you’ve told them to not embarrass me?”

“I did tell them…” whispered Song Yu.

“Big brother, we’ve only set up two levels for you. It was not difficult at all. Don’t you think that we’ve already gone easy on you?” Qi Chengyue stood by the door with both hands on her hip. She was disappointed that she could not have more levels. She had wanted to tease them more.

Qi Chengzhi did not pay attention to her. He lowered his head and looked at Song Yu. His expression became gentle instantly. While looking at the figure of her wearing a wedding dress and sitting on the bed, all he wanted now was to get her in bed.

“Big brother, you still have to find the shoes!” urged Qi Chengyue beside him. “If you keep looking at her, it’ll be too late then!”

Due to her words, Song Yu blushed.

Qi Chengzhi bent down and got closer to Song Yu. She had a light makeup on today and he loved it very much.

Since he had gotten close, he could see her flush on her cheeks. She looked tender and beautiful.

He asked quietly beside her ears, “Where are the shoes?”

Song Yu’s room was not large. There were only a few places that they could hide the shoes. However, Qi Chengzhi had overeaten just now and did not have the strength to look for it. To make it worse, while he was bending, his stomach felt like it was being squeezed and he was feeling uneasy about it. It was as if the food he had swallowed was being pushed up,, making his stomach feel upset.

Song Yu was also unwilling to tire Qi Chengzhi more. She said, “They are on top of the bookcase, hidden under the dress of the doll.

As soon as Qi Chengzhi heard her, he went for it right away.

He walked to the bookcase and looked up at the top of the bookcase. There was a doll wearing a fluffy dress gown. It was an eighteenth-century European fluffy dress gown.

He was tall, thus, he was able to reach the doll just by stretching his long arm. He lifted the doll, revealing the hidden shoes under it.

Qi Chengyue was feeling slightly irritated, but amused at the same time. She knew that Song Yu had given the answer to Qi Chengzhi in whispers just now.

It was an uncommon scenario – the bride helping the groom on the wedding day.

Qi Chengzhi held the shoes in one hand and knelt on one knee, silently lifting her wedding dress and revealing her fair feet.

When his elegant palm held onto her feet, a bolt of electricity went from his palm to her feet. She shivered.

Song Yu dipped her head and watched him. Suddenly, she took notice of the forehead behind his hair. There was something suspicious about it, the skin color of it was different from his skin color.

In an instant, she reached out her hand and lifted the hair that was covering his forehead. She saw two band-aids at the corner of his forehead.

“What happened?” Song Yu was worried immediately.

“It’s nothing.” Qi Chengzhi turned his head and pecked on her palm.

“Don’t you think that you can just avoid my question like this. You were in good shape yesterday. How did you hurt your forehead?” asked Song Yu while carefully stroking his hair. She did not dare to touch the band-aids because there was still some blood streak in between the band-aids.

“I accidentally hit the corner of the table when I was picking something up at home.” Qi Chengzhi raised his head with a serious expression on his face. “Now you know that I won’t be in good shape when you’re not at home.”

Song Yu stared at Qi Chengzhi for a long time. Then, she seemed to have accepted the answer he had given. She lowered her voice and said in embarrassment, “I’ll definitely accompany you at home in the future.”

After Qi Chengzhi had helped her with the shoes, he bent down and put one of his arms around her back, while sneaking another at the back pit of her knees. He was planning to carry her. “Come here.”

In fact, Song Yu did not believe the answer he had given. She put her hands on his shoulder and had no intention of locking her hands around his neck. She questioned, “Is it really alright?”

“No problem,” he promised.

Finally, Song Yu hugged his neck with her arms. She observed his expression carefully, but Qi Chengzhi carried her up calmly.

Qi Chengyue and Ruan Danchen followed behind to help out with the long train wedding dress.

When they were about to exit the unit, firecrackers were set off outside.

Song Yu saw that there were a lot of people gathering around the garden. They were all here to take a glance at the bride and groom. There were little children too, especially the ones who loved to join the fun and take a look at the beautiful bride.

“What a beauty! The bride is beautiful!” one of the kids shouted.

Shuai Shuai, who had had his shuttlecock hooked on the tree by Qi Chengzhi, also shouted, “Sister Song Yu!”

Song Yu looked at him. She smiled while waving to him.

“The wedding dress is beautiful,” said the high school and junior girls with envy. It was a school holiday today. When they saw Song Yu’s wedding dress, they longed for it. “I want to wear such a beautiful wedding dress when I get married in the future.”

Qi Chenglin trotted to them and opened the door of the car. Qi Chengzhi set Song Yu down in the car.
