The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 94 - 94 94 The Tension of Chinese Valentine's Day

94: Chapter 94 The Tension of Chinese Valentine’s Day 94: Chapter 94 The Tension of Chinese Valentine’s Day Seeing the excitement and surprise on Su Qingyu’s face, Ye Shikai was also genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart.

This was exactly the effect he wanted.

The Luminous Pearl of Empress Dowager Cixi, a national treasure that was serendipitous but not sought after, even the wealthiest would treat it as a collectible, and yet, he simply regarded it as a gift.

It could truly be considered a gesture of spending a fortune to win a lady’s smile.

After being excited, Su Qingyu gradually calmed down.

Truly worthy of being called the Queen of the business world, no temptation could cloud her judgement.

She began to ponder who Ye Shikai really was, how he could have access to such an expensive gift.

At that moment, she grew curious about Ye Shikai’s true background.

Why did Su Pengzhan say that he couldn’t obtain his information?

Why did everyone around her think he was no ordinary man?

However, she wouldn’t take the initiative to ask.

She had just agreed to Ye Shikai; she would wait until the day he chose to reveal it himself.

Perhaps, just like he said, these experiences were beyond her imagination.

“Wife, you are under so much work pressure, this Luminous Pearl has the amazing effect of calming the mind.

From now on, placing it in your room will help you sleep,” Ye Shikai pointed at the pearl emitting a faint green light.

“Okay.” Su Qingyu smiled contentedly, put the Luminous Pearl back in its box, and carefully placed it in her bag.

At this moment, she was like a young girl, feeling extremely happy because of a gift.

Perhaps this was what love was.

“Hehe, wife, what gift have you prepared for me?” Ye Shikai changed the topic.

Since it was Chinese Valentine’s Day, of course, it was time for the exchange of gifts between men and women.

Now it was Su Qingyu’s turn.

Thinking of this, Su Qingyu suddenly remembered she too had to present a gift.

But staring at the Luminous Pearl, Su Qingyu felt a bit embarrassed.

Ye Shikai had given her a gift worth billions, while all she had prepared was a black coat.

Of course, it wasn’t Su Qingyu’s fault; who could have anticipated Ye Shikai’s extravagant gesture?

“What’s wrong, didn’t you say you prepared a gift?” Seeing Su Qingyu hesitate, Ye Shikai asked with a hint of confusion.

“It’s at home.

I’ll give it to you when we get back,” Su Qingyu said.

A coat was not something she could carry with her all the time, so she had left it at home today.

“Alright then,” Ye Shikai said with a hint of disappointment.

To be honest, he really wanted to see what gift Su Qingyu had prepared.

“I really want to know who you really are,” Su Qingyu muttered.

“Wife, what did you say?” Ye Shikai asked.

“Oh, it’s nothing.

Let’s continue eating.”

This year’s Chinese Valentine’s Day was particularly cool, but the couple sitting together were enjoying their hotpot with relish.

Today’s Su Qingyu was no longer the aloof CEO, and Ye Shikai was no longer the former Netherworld King.

The two were just like any other couple in love, no different from others around them…

“Hey, you’re here?” At this poignant moment, a familiar voice sounded by their ears, startling Ye Shikai so much that he almost swallowed the tripe in his mouth.

Without looking back, Ye Shikai knew who it was — the person he had been most dreading to see today.

When Su Qingyu saw her, her face clearly flickered with displeasure…

“What’s wrong, not talking to your sister?

Am I not pretty?” Yes, it was none other than Luo Shiqi, whom Ye Shikai had worried all day would come out to trouble them on Chinese Valentine’s Day.

He had been waiting until evening, and she did indeed show up.

Ye Shikai wasn’t surprised that she found this place, of course; it wasn’t a coincidence — she likely knew his schedule already.

Luo Shiqi completely ignored Su Qingyu and sat down right next to him.

Originally, he was sitting opposite Su Qingyu, but now Luo Shiqi had taken the seat next to him, making it look as if she was the girlfriend instead.

It seemed the situation was getting a bit complicated.

“Miss Luo, what a coincidence.

I didn’t expect Miss Luo would also fancy eating hotpot,” Su Qingyu spoke first.

She had always been prejudiced against Luo Shiqi, and now the two were genuine love rivals.

There was no need for Su Qingyu to flatter her anymore.

“Yes, it’s Chinese Valentine’s Day today, and I have no one to accompany me.

I thought I’d come to the hotpot restaurant to see if I could meet a boyfriend, and I didn’t expect to actually find one,” Luo Shiqi playfully poked her own head with her finger, making an excuse that was clearly meant to provoke Su Qingyu.

“Hey Miss Su, isn’t he your younger sister’s boyfriend?

Why is he dining with you?

Could it be that your sister couldn’t come and you, as her sister, are substituting for her?” Luo Shiqi’s words were already laden with a provocative tone.

She clearly knew her relationship with Su Qingyu but still said such things, obviously trying to upset Su Qingyu.

“You…” Su Qingyu really wanted to curse.

If it were in the past, and she didn’t know that Luo Shiqi was aware of the truth, she might not have been so angry.

However, now, knowing that they both understood the relationship, and still playing dumb here.

But Luo Shiqi couldn’t really be blamed for this since the words had come from Su Ziqing, and Su Qingyu hadn’t objected at the time.

If anyone was to blame, it was because Su Qingyu hadn’t acknowledged the truth.

Seeing the somewhat angry expression on Su Qingyu’s face, Luo Shiqi felt somewhat triumphant.

Su Qingyu herself couldn’t say anything, so she turned her gaze on him, staring fiercely as if to say, “If you don’t clear this up with her, you are dead.” Frustrated— a man still gets shot even when lying down…

“Alright, my wife already knows, so stop pretending,” Ye Shikai said somewhat helplessly to Luo Shiqi.

“What?

You told her?” Luo Shiqi seemed surprised, not expecting that Su Qingyu already knew.

“No, she guessed it herself,” Ye Shikai shook his head.

“Miss Luo, since you know he and I are husband and wife, I would ask that you please stop disturbing him,” Su Qingyu said flatly.

Now it was a war between two women, and Su Qingyu’s words were more like defending her sovereignty.

“Is that so?

Then why doesn’t Miss Su announce it publicly?

Why keep it so mysterious?

Could it be that you want to ‘hide your love away in a golden house’?” After hearing this, Ye Shikai nearly choked.

Luo Shiqi actually compared him to a hidden lover in a golden house; he was both amused and frustrated, although Luo Shiqi of course knew why Su Qingyu wasn’t going public with the news.

“I married him at my father’s wish, and the timing was very rushed.

There have been many things we haven’t had time to prepare for, and we were planning to make an announcement later,” Su Qingyu reverted back to her cold and tough CEO demeanor.

The two now were like negotiators at a bargaining table, neither willing to give in on the matter of momentum.

The gunpowder in the air of this year’s Chinese Valentine’s Day was gradually intensifying…
