My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 558: Wife, do you love me?

Chapter 558: Chapter 558: Wife, do you love me?

Women’s intuition always seemed to be incredibly accurate; Leng Ruobing was hit by this thought and couldn’t shake it off.

Under Xiao Zheng’s guidance, they had quickly covered two-thirds of the mountain path and then spotted a pavilion.

The surrounding trees had also become sparse.

Walking into the pavilion and looking downward, they suddenly beheld miles upon miles of flat land stretching into the horizon, with a broad and boundless view beneath the clear, vast sky dotted with white clouds.

A gentle mountain breeze drifted by, bringing with it a hint of coolness. Having walked so far, they had grown somewhat warm, but this cool breeze instantly refreshed their whole bodies.

"Wang Anshi was right when he said ’The most secluded beauties are often found in the most remote dangers,’" Xiao Zheng, feeling the breeze on his face, laughed heartily, "Coming here with you today was definitely the right choice."

Leng Ruobing was just watching Xiao Zheng.

Her beautiful eyes steady.

Xiao Zheng felt that something was off, turned his head to look, and smilingly asked, "What is it?"

Leng Ruobing stated confidently, "You are Mr. Clown!"

Xiao Zheng’s heart tightened.

Had he been discovered?

His mind raced, replaying previous events repeatedly, but found no slip-ups anywhere.

How did Leng Ruobing find out?

"You’re so weird, what do I have to do with Mr. Clown?"

Although surprised and suspicious inwardly, he managed not to show any sign of it and adopted a look of astonishment.

"Hmph."

Leng Ruobing’s expression did not waver at all, "No need to deny it anymore, you are definitely Mr. Clown!"

Seeing Leng Ruobing’s utterly convinced look, Xiao Zheng became even more amazed, wondering if he really had made some slip-up that she had caught on to.

"You’re not joking with me, are you?" Xiao Zheng chuckled, "How could I possibly be Mr. Clown? It’s impossible in every way."

Leng Ruobing shook her head, resolute, "You are!"

Her expression was very firm.

Xiao Zheng’s heart pounded; Leng Ruobing’s look seemed to genuinely suggest that she had discovered his identity.

However, no matter what, he could not admit it—if Mr. Clown’s real identity were exposed, it would bring too much trouble.

So, Xiao Zheng laughed, "You say I am Mr. Clown, but what evidence do you have?"

Leng Ruobing replied, "Intuition."

"Pfft."

Xiao Zheng laughed, "So, you’re just guessing, then. Mr. Clown is a mysterious person; I haven’t met him, but from your and Xiao Ran’s descriptions, he must be an incredibly strong figure. Haven’t you known me long enough? Would I be that kind of powerful, mysterious, and dominant supreme being?"

Pausing, Xiao Zheng looked at Leng Ruobing seriously, "There’s only one possibility for your intuition."

Leng Ruobing asked instinctively, "What possibility?"

Xiao Zheng replied, "You’ve fallen in love with me."

Leng Ruobing snorted with laughter, "Don’t flatter yourself!"

Xiao Zheng shook his head, in a convinced tone, "No, no, no, this is a scientific, rational analysis. Living together with me, familiarity has bred affection, and you’ve fallen in love with me.

Once a woman falls in love with a man, she tends to magnify all his good traits.

And in your imagination, the most charming man should be like Mr. Clown, mysterious, strong, able to casually rescue you in a perilous moment.

"In order to imagine me in a better light, you attribute Mr. Clown’s traits to me."

"You see, I make sense, right?"

Leng Ruobing held her forehead, speechless.

This Xiao Zheng was too good with words.

It took her quite a while to recover, then she laughed and said, "No matter how many reasons you find, it’s useless, you are Mr. Clown, and I am not mistaken."

"First, your background is incredibly mysterious, and you still refuse to tell me your true identity, always displaying astonishing abilities."

"Second, every time Mr. Clown appeared, you were never by my side. Once or twice would be normal, but every time is not normal."

"Third, Mr. Clown seems to follow me around, and no matter when or where I encounter danger, he immediately appears. Could there really be such a master in the world, constantly guarding me? I thought about it, and every time I was in danger, you were by my side, so there’s only one explanation; Mr. Clown is you!"

Leng Ruobing’s logic was rigorous, and her analysis was very calm.

Xiao Zheng was stunned.

He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly, yet there were still these flaws.

But such a matter was something he could never admit to, even if it killed him, so he insisted, "All these are your speculations, without conclusive evidence."

With that, Xiao Zheng chuckled and said, "If you truly believe I am Mr. Clown, then so be it. Hey, Mr. Clown is your idol, your lifesaver. From now on, you should take good care of me."

At this moment, Leng Ruobing suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

"It seems you really aren’t him."

At this, she smiled brightly, "I was just bluffing you just now."

Xiao Zheng was completely speechless; it turned out she was bluffing him! That was close! He almost admitted it just now, but fortunately, he was resolute.

But he quickly caught on.

Damn.

What did Leng Ruobing mean just now? What does it mean, fortunately, I’m not him? Are you looking down on me!

Xiao Zheng looked intently at Leng Ruobing, smirked mischievously, "In these deep woods, you dare to bluff me, he he, girl, if I don’t teach you a lesson, I wouldn’t be a Zheng. Watch my Sky-shattering Dragon Claw!"

Leng Ruobing turned pale and yelled, "Big ruffian!" and hurriedly ran up the mountain.

"Hahaha, you can’t escape the palm of my hand." Xiao Zheng laughed loudly and chased after her.

The two playfully chased and frolicked until they arrived at a private villa atop the mountain. Leng Ruobing’s sister warmly welcomed them.

And when Xiao Zheng mentioned encountering the White Tiger on the mountain path, the beautiful woman was shocked, "You met it?"

"Why, you know about it?" Xiao Zheng asked.

He was also curious as to why there would be a white tiger on the mountain path.

The beautiful woman explained, "The White Tiger was brought by one of my guests, and it accidentally got lost yesterday. I’ve been arranging for people to look for it."

"Then you might be disappointed; it’s already a dead tiger," Xiao Zheng said with a wry smile.

Initially, he also found it strange; in a tourist area like this, it was impossible for there to be a tiger, especially a white tiger, the chances were nearly impossible.

Now he understood, it was brought by someone. As long as one has money and power, what’s bringing a tiger?

"Honestly, I can’t imagine that you actually killed a tiger barehanded." The beautiful woman was amazed.
