My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 540: Wife, You Are Too Gentle

Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Wife, You Are Too Gentle

The matter was really difficult to broach, and Leng Ruobing naturally didn’t want to talk about it. She changed the subject and said, "Shall we talk here?"

Xiao Zheng was startled—was she suggesting they go into the room? That was impossible; there were still two stunning beauties in the room. If he walked in there, no matter how he explained it, he wouldn’t be able to clear things up.

So Xiao Zheng yawned and said, "Let’s just talk here, I’m really sleepy and want to go to bed."

Leng Ruobing looked at Xiao Zheng suspiciously and said, "Seeing you like this, are you hiding something from me?"

Xiao Zheng shook his head repeatedly, "How could that be? I’m truly tired and just want to go to sleep now. Whatever it is, just say it."

"Hmph."

Leng Ruobing crossed her arms, her gaze sharpening as she fixed her eyes on Xiao Zheng and said, "There’s definitely something fishy going on. Move aside, I’m going in."

Leng Ruobing, still clad in the outfit designed by Xiao Zheng, exuded a vigorous air, radiating the aura of a domineering CEO. With her speaking in such a manner, there really was a sense of pressure.

Xiao Zheng could only offer a wry smile of helplessness.

But Leng Ruobing was not merely talking. Having said her piece, she pushed Xiao Zheng aside and strode into the room, full of commanding presence.

Xiao Zheng was taken aback and didn’t react in time, letting Leng Ruobing walk in. He inwardly cursed at his luck and quickly tried to stop Leng Ruobing, but by that time, she had already reached the room’s door and opened it.

Xiao Zheng’s scalp tingled with anxiety. The beauty CEO was like a bomb; if she exploded, could anything good come of it?

"I see what you’re up to, hiding here all by yourself secretly sipping red wine," came Leng Ruobing’s voice from inside the room.

Xiao Zheng was stunned.

By himself?

He hurried into the room, only to find it empty, save for a bottle of red wine sitting on a table by the bed.

Where had the female reporter run off to?

Xiao Zheng wondered.

Then he couldn’t help but direct his gaze towards the wardrobe and sensed for a moment. Indeed, stuffed inside the wardrobe were two full-grown individuals.

Both stark naked.

"Well done, well done, these two ladies have good improvisation skills," Xiao Zheng praised loudly in his heart.

Then he responded to Leng Ruobing with a chuckle, "This bottle of red wine is from a good friend of mine; it’s very rare and delicious. Why don’t you try some?"

The female reporter inside the wardrobe couldn’t help but curse upon hearing that. What good friend? It was clearly brought by me, hmph!

Leng Ruobing shook her head, "I don’t feel like drinking right now. I’ve reserved a table at a restaurant; let’s go there."

"What?"

Xiao Zheng rubbed his ears, doubting he had heard correctly. In this situation... his beautiful wife was inviting him to dinner?

"What’s the matter? You don’t want to go?" Leng Ruobing saw Xiao Zheng’s astonished expression and got somewhat annoyed. Was an invitation to dinner from her really that surprising? It made her seem like she never treated anyone to a meal.

Xiao Zheng laughed and said, "How could I not? I’d love to, love to, a hundred and twenty percent yes."

Of course, he would not refuse an invitation from his beautiful wife.

"But, why the sudden invitation to dinner?" Xiao Zheng asked perplexedly.

Leng Ruobing lowered her head and said, "You helped Lan this time, and at the same time, you helped me. Because of the fashion design you created, my influence at this fashion show has greatly increased. Consider it my way of saying thank you."

In truth, this wasn’t the real reason.

While it was certainly delightful to have an enhanced status at the fashion show, Leng Ruobing’s personality wasn’t one to care too much about such things.

The real reason was that the outfit designed by Xiao Zheng was simply too fitting for her temperament. No one would believe it wasn’t custom-made for her. Deep down, Leng Ruobing was a little moved, which was why she had planned to invite Xiao Zheng for a meal.

As the two talked, Lan and the beautiful reporter inside the closet were in a great hurry. It was too cold, and they were not dressed, now nearly frozen stiff.

They didn’t dare to go out.

The two women exchanged glances inside the closet, feeling a shared sense of misfortune, almost crying.

At that moment, suddenly, Xiao Zheng’s phone rang.

It was Long Qie.

His expression instantly turned grave, and he said to Leng Ruobing, "Sorry, I might not be able to make it tonight, a brother is looking for me."

"Hmm?"

Leng Ruobing was stunned, as it was the first time she had seen Xiao Zheng with such a serious expression. She didn’t say much, being very understanding, "Then you should go. If there’s anything you need my help with, just tell me."

Xiao Zheng looked at Leng Ruobing with a bit of gratitude. At such a moment, any other woman would have been upset with their boyfriend for breaking plans and made a scene, but Leng Ruobing didn’t cause any trouble.

One should find a wife like her, someone who absolutely wouldn’t hold a man back.

Xiao Zheng sighed, then left the room. Long Qie calling meant there was certainly an urgent situation, so Xiao Zheng didn’t dare to delay.

As for Lan and the beautiful reporter, he had forgotten about them.

After he left, Leng Ruobing didn’t leave either but stayed in the room.

Inside the closet, Lan and the beautiful reporter were shivering, hoping Leng Ruobing would leave quickly. However, Leng Ruobing stood still, not moving an inch. They were in tears, forced to remain in the closet, while internally they raged, wondering what she was doing in the room without a man, planning to sleep there?

But at that moment, they heard a voice that scared them to death.

"Come out. I’ve known you were there all along. Aren’t you cold with the air conditioning on so high?"

Lan and the beautiful reporter looked at each other, their eyes filled with terror.

They had been discovered?

With no other choice, both women braced themselves, opened the closet door, and came out.

Leng Ruobing was stunned to see two bare bodied beauties emerge before her. She had sensed something off about Xiao Zheng’s demeanor, which had made her suspicious. But to save Xiao Zheng’s face, she had said nothing and planned to investigate later.

Leng Ruobing knew that men valued their pride above all else; no matter the situation, they shouldn’t be publicly embarrassed—that was part of a woman’s duty. Therefore, she had said nothing at the time.

Another reason was her trust in Xiao Zheng. Leng Ruobing believed in her judgment. A man like Xiao Zheng was certainly not someone who would forsake his principles for mere beauty.

Now that Xiao Zheng had left, it was the perfect opportunity to clear up the situation.

She had thought there was only one person hiding in the room, but to her surprise, there were two.

And one of them was Lan.

"Talk, what exactly is going on?" Leng Ruobing’s expression turned stern as she scrutinized the two women before her. With Qianqiu Group under her command, her authority was far beyond that of ordinary women. Even her calm words left no room for resistance.
