Mr. Bigshot Is Obsessed with His Hidden-Marriage Wife
Chapter 40: Not a Waste of a Kiss

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Not a Waste of a Kiss

Ye Yan met his gaze, "Does Mr. Fu enjoy seeking abuse by rushing forward?"

Ignoring her sarcastic tone, the man’s hand caressed back and forth on her smooth thighs, gradually nearing the private area, "It seems Dr. Ye’s mouth is much less honest than this."

Hiss!

Ye Yan inhaled sharply and glared at him, "Fu Xingzhou, aren’t you going too far?"

"Say something pleasant, and maybe I won’t want to eat this, just have a meal instead." His gaze was scarily intense, and she didn’t doubt for a second that he would press her onto the dining table and go at it.

"What do you want me to say?"

"Don’t you have anything you want to ask?"

Ye Yan was silent for a moment, "Isn’t Meng Li your lover?"

"Heh, where did you hear that from?" Fu Xingzhou’s eyes lifted slightly, his expression teasing.

"It’s all over the news, with photos. When you were on Dangzi Island, she was by your side for three months." Back when she first saw these news articles, her feelings were completely different.

Back then, she’d forget after reading, but recalling them now, each image was vividly clear.

Where had things changed?

Fu Xingzhou suddenly laughed out of exasperation, "Dr. Ye, have you ever heard the phrase, ’Seeing isn’t always believing, hearing isn’t always deceiving’? You seize on a photo that shows only a hand and claim I slept with Nangong Yan; now you use a few gossip news articles to concretely claim I cohabitated three months with Meng Li on Dangzi Island. Not a single piece of solid evidence in hand."

Ye Yan suddenly felt somewhat guilty being questioned like this; truly a lawyer’s eloquent way of insisting on proof.

"Isn’t this enough? No one dares to install cameras in your room." Ye Yan refused to lose the argument, keeping at least her expression intact.

Her righteous and defiant expression suddenly made Fu Xingzhou feel less angry.

During his time on Dangzi Island, he knew how the media would spin stories about him and Meng Li, yet he didn’t intervene, wanting to see Ye Yan’s reaction.

Yet when he returned from Dangzi Island, she didn’t mention it, or rather, she knew everything but acted as if it was unrelated to her.

Little thing, learning to settle scores after autumn, huh.

"Feeling guilty?" Ye Yan caught him in a moment of distraction.

"I feel guilty about nothing." Fu Xingzhou kissed her lips viciously, his breath heavy with restraint, "The group’s resort project was on Dangzi Island, Meng Li’s crew rented the resort for filming, isn’t it normal for the media to capture photos of us together?"

That series would soon be broadcast on TVB, perfect for promoting the resort project. He received rental fees and free publicity by letting the media spin stories about him and Meng Li, which was a form of indirect promotional hype.

Though his attitude was somewhat harsh, it was enough to surprise Ye Yan, even leaving her somewhat flustered.

Was he actually explaining himself to her?

"I, Fu Xingzhou, might not be a good man, but I wouldn’t cheat inside a marriage." Fu Xingzhou pinched her slender waist, "Dr. Ye, remember this, since the day we got our marriage license, I only touched you."

"Did you hear me?" His words were through gritted teeth.

Ye Yan was dazed, not fully processing his words, much to his dissatisfaction.

After a while, she finally seemed to recover, but once she spoke, she wanted to slap herself.

"What about before then?"

Sure enough, Fu Xingzhou narrowed his eyes, his gaze swimming with indecipherable emotions, tinged with impatience and scrutiny.

It seemed he had given her too good of a treatment, emboldening her to overstep her bounds, questioning him so thoroughly.

Ye Yan hurriedly covered her mouth, muttering silently, "Can we eat now? I’m hungry."

Fu Xingzhou’s expression softened slightly, even though her change in topic was more rigid than her stubbornness.

Out of kindness, Fu Xingzhou let her go to eat.

Ye Yan appeared calm as she ate, but her emotions were tumultuous inside.

It seemed she needed to cut down on gossip news in the future and not speculate based on images; modern media, chasing after views, would capture any hint and weave the rest from nothing.

The truth among the truth and falsehoods was only clear to those directly involved.

She suddenly remembered the days when Fu Xingzhou had just returned from Dangzi Island, he was like a wild beast that hadn’t eaten meat for half a year, tossing and turning with her endlessly.

From the sofa lounge to the living room carpet, from the bathroom to the study, it was unrestrained, as if he could never be satisfied.

Her legs were weak for several days, so much so that she would tremble at the sight of him taking off his coat.

If he had really lived with Meng Li on Dangzi Island for three months, he wouldn’t have been so desperate.

In this regard, he always had a high demand and good stamina; he was not the type to only eat grass when he could have meat.

"Still lost in wild thoughts?"

Ye Yan abruptly came back to her senses, her eyes somewhat fixed as she looked at him, "From her demeanor, your relationship must have been good."

Meng Li had hugged his waist on sight, as affectionate as long-separated lovers.

"Wanting to ask if I touched her or kissed her?" Fu Xingzhou leisurely stared at her face.

"I didn’t ask, nor did I wonder." Ye Yan retorted stubbornly.

Fu Xingzhou smiled, "Then just use your imagination, as it’s quite rich. Perhaps in the future, you could consider switching from being a doctor to becoming a paparazzo."

She knew he was mocking her, so she fiercely bit into the meat in her mouth.

The meal was nearly finished when Fu Xingzhou received a call.

After hanging up, he elegantly wiped the corner of his mouth, "I have some good news."

Ye Yan’s eyes lit up, "Is it that the two cameras captured some useful clues?"

He didn’t speak, just stared steadily at her.

Ye Yan understood his intent; he liked her begging him, enjoying the sense of control as if sitting high above.

It was a nasty trait of men.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing the corner of his lips like a pleasing kitten.

If she could let go of her pride to plead with Lin Yihang for Ye Zhun’s sake, naturally she didn’t fear such a trivial display.

"Do I look that easy to appease?" Fu Xingzhou seemed like an unshakably virtuous man, completely unmoved.

"Can we go home?" Ye Yan asked softly.

In public places, she truly couldn’t handle such acts.

"You think of me as what, a stud?"

Ye Yan thought to herself, aren’t you?

But she didn’t dare say it aloud.

"You owe me a favor," Fu Xingzhou pressed on her plump lips twice. "Remember that."

Ye Yan nodded, sincerely acknowledging that she remembered.

Fu Xingzhou did not trouble her further but simply passed his phone to her: "This is within your field of expertise."

She didn’t know where he had gotten the medical report from, but he certainly had his ways.

Originally, the plaintiff had been involved in a car accident four years ago, which caused an intracranial hematoma. The hematoma was surgically removed, but it left complications.

After years of treatment, the complications had gradually lessened, but the damage initially caused made his brain tissue structure abnormal.

In other words, a regular person might recover quickly from such a hit with timely treatment and would not become disabled, but because the plaintiff had significant cerebral damage history, the injury worsened.

The odds of winning seemed much higher now.

Those kisses weren’t in vain after all.
