Chapter 720: Chapter 692: This is Slander!

"Qianqian, are you all right?"

Upon entering Wang Qianqian’s room, Li Chen, seeing her sitting at the head of the bed in a daze, couldn’t help but speak up.

"I’m fine..."

Startled by Li Chen’s voice, Wang Qianqian abruptly snapped back to reality, turned her head to look at Li Chen, and a smile appeared on her face.

"These past days, I’ve made you suffer, I’m sorry," Li Chen said, looking at Wang Qianqian with sincere eyes.

"I’ve already said I’m fine." Wang Qianqian suddenly stretched out her hand, and hugged the head of Li Chen, who was close at hand: "Besides, didn’t I say it before? I did it willingly, and I’m willing to do all this for you."

Li Chen, however, shook his head: "You may be willing, but I’m not. From now on, I don’t want to see such things happen again, okay?"

Yet, under Li Chen’s hopeful gaze, Wang Qianqian firmly said, "If I were given another chance to choose, I would still do the same."

Li Chen fell silent.

Looking at Wang Qianqian, his eyes flickered with something called ’emotion’.

This was a woman, just like Lin Yi, worthy of his love.

She was not good at expressing herself, but her silent love, compared to sweet nothings, preferred to prove itself through actions.

Just like that time in front of Stone Gate.

Unable to help himself, Li Chen stretched out his arms and hugged Wang Qianqian tightly.

"I’m sorry! I won’t let such things happen again!"

Wang Qianqian gently stroked Li Chen’s back: "Don’t say sorry to me again if you still love me."

Li Chen no longer spoke, but the hands that held Wang Qianqian grew even tighter, as though he wanted to merge this woman completely into himself.

...

"Are you having this so early in the morning?"

Lin Yi came downstairs and, seeing the busy Li Chen, couldn’t help but hurry toward the dining table, exclaiming in surprise when she saw the food there.

It wasn’t because there was too little, but too much.

"What, you’re not willing to eat when your husband personally cooks? There’s been a lot going on lately; it’s good to eat more and replenish yourself," Li Chen said with a smile.

"It smells so good!"

At that moment, another voice chimed in. Li Chen looked up to see that it was Wang Qianqian coming out of her room, too, immediately sniffing the air as she spoke.

"Come on, come eat breakfast!" Li Chen quickly gestured for Wang Qianqian to join them.

"Okay!" Wang Qianqian agreed, swiftly walking over to join them.

However, at that moment, Lin Yi suddenly spoke up: "Hubby."

"What’s up?" Li Chen looked up with an inquiring gaze at Lin Yi.

"I feel like having some soup, could you go make some for me?" Lin Yi said.

"Soup, huh..."

"Hmm?" Lin Yi glanced at Li Chen with a threatening look.

"Alright, alright, right away! Your wish is my command, my dear wife!" Li Chen quickly surrendered, striding toward the kitchen.

"Where’s Brother Cheen going?" At that point, Wang Qianqian came to the table as well and, seeing Li Chen suddenly leave, she asked Lin Yi with a hint of curiosity.

"You don’t need to worry about that. Now, let’s talk about us, shall we?" Lin Yi turned to look at Wang Qianqian and suddenly said.

"Our issue?" Wang Qianqian was taken aback.

What Lin Yi and Wang Qianqian talked about, Li Chen did not know.

Only, when he emerged from the kitchen, what he saw was Lin Yi and Wang Qianqian chatting and laughing together.

It seemed like their relationship was good, but it wasn’t quite this good, was it?

"Wife..." Li Chen walked over, handed the soup to Lin Yi, but before he could finish speaking, Lin Yi took the soup without even acknowledging him and turned her head to chat with Wang Qianqian again.

"Qianqian..." Li Chen shifted his gaze towards Wang Qianqian.

However, to his disappointment, this time, Wang Qianqian didn’t pay any attention to him either, and continued chatting with Lin Yi.

For a moment, Li Chen felt like he had become a glaring light bulb.

But, enjoying delicious food and watching beautiful women seemed quite enjoyable too... Li Chen consoled himself with this thought.

After breakfast, Li Chen saw Lin Yi drive off with Wang Qianqian.

"Hey! Wife... Wives, wait for me!" Li Chen yelled at the car that had already driven some distance away.

Then, Li Chen clearly heard a delicate scolding voice coming from the not too distant car.

"Scram!"

"Alright then." Li Chen scratched his head, still not clear about what exactly was going on, but he knew that the two women must have reached some kind of agreement.

Arriving at the company, Li Chen found that, for some reason, not only was Lin Yi ignoring him, but even the usually docile Wang Qianqian gave him a perfunctory look when she saw him.

After a frustrating day flipping through files, Li Chen left work early and returned home.

Lying on the sofa, Li Chen stroked his chin, deep in thought.

"What the hell are these two women up to?"

At that moment, there was suddenly the sound of a door opening from outside. Li Chen stood up reflexively and walked towards the entrance, wanting to ask what they were planning.

"I say, wife..."

Li Chen’s words had just left his mouth when he froze.

Because, standing at the door wasn’t Lin Yi, but Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Brother-in-law... What did you just call me?" Lin Xiaoxiao, seeing the suddenly dumbfounded expression on Li Chen’s face, said with a giggle.

"Cough cough!" Li Chen coughed forcefully twice: "I thought you were your sister..."

"Brother-in-law!"

Before Li Chen could finish, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly rushed over and grabbed his arm, then whispered in a lowered voice, "I’ve got something good to discuss with you."

"Something good?" Li Chen looked at Lin Xiaoxiao skeptically, and for some reason, he couldn’t feel happy hearing her mention something good.

When had this girl ever had something good to involve him in?

"It’s really something good!"

Seeing Li Chen’s skeptical look, Lin Xiaoxiao twisted her body and hurriedly said.

"I have a day off today! So, I want to go on a trip... but it’s so dangerous for me to be alone outside, you can’t just ignore it, can you, brother-in-law?" Lin Xiaoxiao said.

"I’ll send someone to protect you!" Li Chen declared grandly.

"No!" Lin Xiaoxiao quickly said: "I want you to accompany me!"

"Xiaoxiao, stop messing around, you might be off, but I still have to work," Li Chen said assertively.

"Pssh!" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Li Chen with disdain: "You call that working? Brother-in-law, let me ask you, how many times do you go in a month?"

"Uh..." Li Chen found himself at a loss for words, as he had indeed been away from the company more than he had been there recently.

"But..."

"I don’t care! I want you to come with me! Otherwise, I’ll tell my sister you harassed me, and that you called me ’wife’!" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Li Chen, her eyes squinting with laughter, as though she had grabbed hold of Li Chen’s weakness.

Li Chen’s face was full of grievance: "That’s defamation!"
