“It’s even more unlikely that Big Brother Chengzhi would accept me now that my face is ruined like this! Waah…” Mu Sisi squatted down and cried while hugging her legs together. “It’s unfair, why must God treat me so unfairly? Why did he want to ruin my face?”

“Stop saying that as if the world’s going to end.” Mu Huaisheng’s patience was running out then and he was struggling to contain his temper. “Chutian Hospital is quite renowned for their plastic surgery. I’ve already asked them and they said your scar can be fixed. But as you said, it’s likely that your face can’t be restored to the point where the scar is completely unnoticeable. They’ll do their best to try and make it as close to your normal skin tone as possible. They guarantee that all the cracks from the scar will be gone and it’ll be smooth once again.

“Modern techniques are improving by the day. They used to insert things for plastic surgery, but now they just need to inject some hyaluronic acid to fill it. Who knows, after a few more years, they might be able to remove your scar completely. Almost everyone has some acne scar on their face. Can’t that be covered up using some makeup? Whatever that remains of your scar, why not treat it as acne scars and just apply makeup over it? As for the sunken areas, they’ll just top it up with some hyaluronic acid once it’s fully healed. By then it’ll be completely unnoticeable. What is there for you to shout about and cry for?”

“I…” Mu Sisi began to calm down, but she was still weeping in grief.

He toned down his volume. “Come on, get up. Now’s the time for you to take care of your body. When you were unconscious, I already made arrangements for you. I looked for one of Chutian Hospital’s most renowned plastic surgeons. By the time your scar heals, it’ll probably be your turn already. I’ve spoken with the doctors and the nurses. When they disinfect your injury and reduce the swelling, they’ll do their best to let your wound heal and reduce scarring as much as they possibly can.”

Mu Sisi was helped up by Mu Huaisheng, and surprisingly, she did not look angry at all. Docile and well-behaved, she was carried onto the bed and was left to lie down there.

Mu Huaisheng called the nurse to reattach the IV drip, then got one of the hospital staff to clean the room up.

…

When Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu were having breakfast, Qi Chengzhi received a call from Chu Zhaoyang. He answered, “Okay.”

Once he hung up, he turned to Song Yu and said, “Chu Zhaoyang said that someone smashed Mu Sisi’s head. There’s a big wound on her forehead, but it got infected because she didn’t take care of it properly. Even if the wound heals, there’s a possibility that it will leave behind a big scar. Because of that, she created quite a commotion in the hospital.”

Shocked, Song Yu blinked and asked, “Who was it that was brave enough to lay a hand on Mu Sisi?”

Qi Chengzhi pursed his lips and replied bluntly, “God knows who else she offended. I suppose this time she really messed with the wrong person. Whoever it was, it’s definitely someone who shouldn’t be provoked. I can find out for you if you want to know.”

“Don’t bother. I was just simply asking.” Song Yu had no interest at all in Mu Sisi’s affairs. Mu Sisi’s arrogant attitude, coupled with the fresh scar on her face, must have made Mu Sisi go crazy in the most unimaginable way.

Thus, the couple did not put too much thought on Mu Sisi. Neither of them wanted to be disgusted by her.

After the meal, Qi Chengzhi sent Song Yu to work. Since Song Yu already knew the truth behind her family’s bankruptcy, everything was out in the open and there was no longer any secrecy between the two of them. Qi Chengzhi’s heart felt particularly relaxed, and throughout the journey, he held Song Yu’s hand in an extremely cherishing manner.

His lips could not help but curl up when they were on the road. A relaxed smile was plastered on his face with Qi Chengzhi massaging Song Yu’s hand time and again.

She looked at him, fully aware as to why he was so happy. Turning her hand over to hold him, she too could not resist breaking into a smile.

Qi Chengzhi parked the car at Chengshi and said, “Don’t forget the celebration dinner tonight. I’ll get Chang Lai to bring over your clothes and pick you up.”

With the completion of Qilin’s hotel, the inspection went smoothly as well. Qilin decided to organize a dinner party at Shengyue, and Chengshi was invited to join in the celebration.

Song Yu nodded and kissed Qi Chengzhi before getting off the car. Qi Chengzhi grabbed her waist before her lips broke away from his. He pulled her deeper into his embrace, kissing her lips and stroking them slowly.

After Mu Sisi’s situation had been dealt with the day earlier, no one else disturbed them anymore and there was no longer a barrier between the two of them. Even though both of them knew the truth, they did not know the exact details of what each other knew.

It was only until the previous day that they actually laid everything out in the open. Finally, they were able to feel a burden being lifted off their hearts. Qi Chengzhi hugged Song Yu, but although he was silent, his lips and hands poured out his innermost feelings on her body.

Recalling the things that they did the night before, Song Yu’s face turned very red and she began shivering in his embrace. Being wrapped in his hug allowed her to feel his strength. She never once regarded herself as being the soft type, but that was precisely how she felt when she was enveloped in his arms.

Song Yu pushed him slightly, causing him to loosen up. When Song Yu lowered her head, his lips were directly touching the space between her eyebrows. He kissed her forehead slowly, then began moving outward. Softly and slowly, he kissed her temples, then traveled to the corner of her eyes.

The only thing her nose picked up was his fragrant scent which sent her mind into a frenzy.

Knowing that he was relieved of his worries, he loosened up happily as well.

She looked up slightly and kissed his lower lip gently. “I have to go up now.”

“Mm,” Qi Chengzhi responded, but his hands did not seem to have any intention of letting go.

One of his hands was on her waist, while the other crept slowly down her arm in search of her hand, kneading her while doing so.

“Are you going to let go or not?” Song Yu could not help but ask.

Qi Chengzhi gazed down at her reddened cheek and roaming eyes. How could he let go of her when she looked so affectionate? He lowered his head and kissed her cheek, causing her entire body to feel limp.

“I’m gonna be late,” Song Yu said softly. She felt weird to receive such passion when both of them were married and she was already pregnant with his child.

“Then I’ll wait for you at the office in the afternoon,” Qi Chengzhi remarked, finally willing to let her go.

Song Yu got off, and Qi Chengzhi waited for her to enter the main entrance before leaving.

At noon, Cheng Lai went to the shop and picked up the dress that Song Yu was supposed to wear that night. He later picked Song Yu up and brought her to have lunch with Qi Chengzhi.

After lunch, Qi Chengzhi told Song Yu to stay back and rest on the sofa inside his office.

Song Yu accepted his suggestion delightedly. She set an alarm in her handphone to ring one hour before Qi Chengzhi was due to be done for the day.

In the end, though, she woke up by herself before the alarm could ring. The room was dim and easy on her eyes when she opened them up sleepily. Not a single ray of piercing bright light was present at all.

However, she saw a face as soon as she opened her eyes.

“My goodness, you gave me a fright.” Song Yu punched his shoulder lightly.

Qi Chengzhi was kneeling beside the bed and staring at her as she slept. She did not know how long he had been watching, so when she opened her eyes, she was greeted by an up-close view of his steadily-gazing face.

He sat on the edge of the sofa and bent down to kiss her lips.

“Did I drool in my sleep?” Blushing, Song Yu asked anxiously. She was worried he would see how silly her face looked when saliva seeped out of her mouth as she slept. She felt particularly anxious when he leaned to kiss her since she was worried that he would notice her wet lips.

She touched her lips. They were dry and devoid of any suspicious water stain.

He leaned over, squeezing her as he spooned her on the sofa and pressed her body down slightly.

“How long did you look at me while I slept?” Song Yu’s soft fingers drew circles on his chest.

“I was just about to wake you up, but coincidentally, you woke up as well.” Qi Chengzhi kept a calm face and said.

“…” Song Yu was silent for a moment before finally saying, “As if I’d believe you.”

“When did our trust become so watered down?” Qi Chengzhi cocked a brow and asked.

“When you’re shameless, that’s when,” Song Yu said without hesitation and pushed his chest. “Lock the door.”

“What are you going to do?” He stared at her, with his gaze turning suggestive gradually. Qi Chengzhi seemed to be having some naughty thoughts because the corners of his lips were curled up suggestively. The way he looked at Song Yu made the latter feel like she was also thinking the same lewd thoughts.

Before Song Yu could explain, Qi Chengzhi kissed her, got up from the sofa, and locked the door.

He loosened his tie as he was walking back, and his jacket had been shed by the time he came back to the sofa.

“What are you doing?” Song Yu sat up and saw Qi Chengzhi loosening his belt.

“You wanted it, didn’t you?” Qi Chengzhi took off his belt, untucked his dress shirt, then began unbuttoning.

“…” Song Yu stood up immediately and took a step back. “When did I say that?”

“You’re the one who asked me to lock the door.” Qi Chengzhi’s handsome face feigned innocence and he stared dumbfoundedly at Song Yu.

“I wanted to change into the dress for tonight’s dinner. Who said I…wanted…” Song Yu blushed and protested.

Qi Chengzhi sighed. “Pregnant women are not only bad-tempered, but they’re becoming more and more stubborn, too.”

He made a show of being tolerant, and it angered Song Yu to the point where she let out a huff. “Who’s the one with the bad temper? Who’s the stubborn one?”

“Don’t make a fuss.” Qi Chengzhi put on a negotiating tone. “Look at me, I’ve already taken off my clothes. Let’s just have one round.”

“You’re the one who’s becoming more and more shameless.” Song Yu’s face turned scarlet and she pshaw-ed embarrassedly. She grabbed her clothes and made a run for the washroom. There was no way she would dare to change them in front of him.

Song Yu looked at herself in the mirror. With only her undergarments covering her, she looked at her body from the side and saw that her baby bump was beginning to appear. It was not obvious when she wore clothes, but from that angle, she did not find herself too attractive.

She felt dispirited when her attempts at retracting her stomach were in vain.

Even with that body, Qi Chengzhi was still as ravenous as ever. What in the world was he thinking?

She rubbed her belly, smiled, then mumbled to herself, “Oh, my dear child. Come out quick so mommy can get back her old body shape. Otherwise, plenty of other women will come seducing your father. It’s going to be tough for me to handle.”

“What are you mumbling about inside?” Qi Chengzhi’s rich and calm voice resonated from the other side of the door.

“Nothing! I’m changing, don’t rush me!” Song Yu grabbed the dress and put it on immediately.

“Aren’t you afraid something might happen to you since you’re all alone in the washroom?” Qi Chengzhi said from outside the door.

“Nothing’s going to happen. I’ll be done soon.” Song Yu zipped up the side of the dress.

She then heard Qi Chengzhi say from outside, “You’re not letting me come in?”

“…” Her thoughts became very lewd and she wondered if Qi Chengzhi had influenced her in a bad way. She felt that his words had a very suggestive undertone to them.

“What’s your purpose for coming in here?” Song Yu smoothed her dress and went out hurriedly.

When she opened the door, she saw him with his shirt completely unbuttoned. He was leaning forward on the door frame, and his look had her stomach in knots.

“What do you think is my purpose for coming in there?” Qi Chengzhi asked half-smilingly.

“Stop it. We have a dinner, right? You can’t be running late.” Song Yu’s gaze had nowhere else to go. The door was blocked and she could not go out.

“I already took off my clothes…” Qi Chengzhi’s voice was gentle as if he was trying to coax a kid with candy.

“…” Song Yu looked at him speechlessly. “Aren’t you supposed to get ready and prepare to head out?”

A look of unwillingness flashed through his face. Song Yu blushed, leaned over shyly, then lowered her head. Her scalp was numb and her ears were feeling hot. “If you want to…have one round, you’ll definitely go at it for a long time, since you last really long. By the time we reach the venue, it would already be midway through the dinner. Isn’t that a bit too rude?”

Qi Chengzhi cocked a brow and pulled her into his embrace. “So, if I last long, does that mean you’re really satisfied?”

Song Yu’s face was red-hot and she felt embarrassed to look at him. Both her eyes stared at his chest and she giggled. “I’m always satisfied, but…but you can’t…enter yet, right?”

“How many more days left?” Qi Chengzhi lowered his head, sniffed her cheek, then asked hoarsely.

“Go back and look at the calendar by yourself.” Song Yu lowered her head even more. Her cheek was hot due to his sniffing. “Aren’t you the one who’s been remembering it all this time?”

Qi Chengzhi chuckled. His sonorous voice was very appealing when it resonated in his throat.

“Well, then I took off my clothes for no reason.” Qi Chengzhi hugged her without letting go. His lips slid down her cheek and onto her lips. “At least touch me.”

Before Song Yu could move, Qi Chengzhi kneaded her waist and urged her on. Only then did her hand creep to his waist and slowly make its journey up toward his chest. She tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.

“Is that okay?” Song Yu asked softly.

“Wait for me to get ready, then we’ll go.” He kissed her, finally let her go, then began tidying his clothes.

Song Yu’s dress was wrinkled because of his hugs. She went back into the washroom and looked at herself in the mirror so she can smoothen out her dress. From her bag, she took out some makeup and applied a light layer on her face. Luckily for her, the dress was not too garish in color, so she did not need makeup that was too vibrant. Both her makeup and her dress were elegantly simple.

As the wife of Qilin’s director, she was calm because she did not need to vie for the spotlight with anyone else there.

Qi Chengzhi finished getting ready, then invited Qi Chenglin and Qi Chengyue to go to Shengyue together.

Since Qi Chengyue rode with Cheng Dongge almost daily, she did not drive, and on that day, she followed Qi Chenglin’s car to Shengyue.

Cheng Dongge arrived much earlier at Shengyue to make sure everything was in order. The celebration was going to be held at the buffet restaurant on Shengyue’s second floor. When it was about time for him to expect Qi Chengyue’s arrival, he went down to Shengyue’s entrance and waited there.

Before she arrived, however, the first thing he spotted was a red BMW Z4 stopping at Shengyue’s parking lot.

Cheng Dongge did not think much of it at first since a BMW Z4 was not considered an eye-catching car by B City’s standards. One look at the number plate though, and he decided to go back into the dining hall to hide away for a while.

Barely seconds after he turned around, he heard a woman’s voice calling her from behind. “Mr. Cheng.”

He had no choice but to give up those thoughts. When he finally came to his senses, he saw Jiang Xiyao wearing a one-piece dress. A pair of high heels adorned her feet and she was holding a bag while making her way over.

“Miss Jiang.” Cheng Dongge greeted her with a simple nod.

“Ever since that day, I’ve been waiting for you to contact me. If a woman is too eager, then the man would never know how to cherish her. But you didn’t get in touch with me at all. You’re selling yourself too high, aren’t you?” Jiang Xiyao stood in front of him and reproached him.
