Mr. Bigshot Is Obsessed with His Hidden-Marriage Wife
Chapter 92:

Chapter 92: Chapter 92:

The butler brought over the ordering tablet, and each person ordered a juice.

"Are you a doctor?" Shen Wan’er reacted in surprise and admiration, "Doctors are the people I admire the most in life."

"What do you do for a living, Miss Shen?" Ye Yan asked, stirring the grapefruit pulp at the bottom of his cup.

"Dr. Ye, what did you just say?"

"Hm?" Ye Yan put down his spoon, somewhat confused.

Shen Wan’er suddenly swept her long hair behind her ears and inserted a white object into her delicate ear.

Ye Yan recognized the brand of the hearing aid—it was produced abroad and custom-made to fit one person.

"Actually, I only heard half of what they said just now," Shen Wan’er blinked. "I can catch some parts by listening and others by reading lips. You were looking down when you spoke, so I didn’t hear clearly."

"Is this a congenital condition or acquired?"

"Acquired."

Ye Yan thought for a moment and then began to gesture, "Actually, I know sign language; I can communicate with you using sign language."

"You know sign language?"

"Many of my patients are deaf and mute. During the hospital’s free clinic sessions, there were also older adults in the welfare institutions, so I learned sign language to communicate more easily with patients."

"Dr. Ye is really a dedicated and responsible doctor," Shen Wan’er gave a thumbs up. "When I was four, my parents died in an accident, and that also caused my ears to lose their hearing completely. Uncle Chen from the Chen Family, who was my father’s business partner, adopted me. In an effort to cure my ears, Uncle Chen took me to many places and saw many famous doctors, but to little effect. Last year, my brother got me this hearing aid, and finally, I can hear some sounds again. With this and lip-reading, I can communicate like a normal person. But this device is very uncomfortable to wear, it makes a buzzing noise in my ear, and it gives me headaches."

Ye Yan understood—Shen Wan’er was a child from someone the Chen Family had adopted, who had grown up with Chen Yiren.

They might as well be real siblings.

On the restaurant’s balcony, Chen Yiren was smoking with Fu Xingzhou, the smoke wafting between them, and the man’s eyes deepened, "It’s rare to see her open up to someone like this, your Dr. Ye is quite capable."

Fu Xingzhou smiled.

"Dr. Ye knows sign language?"

Fu Xingzhou took a puff of his cigarette, his gaze resting on a slender shadow, "Coincidentally, I just found out too."

His Dr. Ye really was a treasure trove of surprises, although beneath the cool exterior seemed to lie a bit of a rebellious spirit.

Did he forget my reminder before he left the house, daring to limp out like that?

Ye Yan, carrying Sijiu, tiptoed back to the room, intending to destroy the "evidence of leaving" before Fu Xingzhou returned. But upon entering, he saw the man sitting at the desk, busy with work.

It seemed he was in a video conference, with cautious and stern voices coming from the computer.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Ye Yan decided to fetch him a glass of water to make amends.

While Fu Xingzhou was listening to the senior management’s enthusiastic discussion, he saw a little rabbit hopping towards the kitchen, that innocent yet guilty manner made his heart itch.

Ye Yan hadn’t even filled the glass when someone picked him up from behind.

"Aren’t you in a meeting?" Ye Yan exclaimed, panicking and checking the computer, worried the camera was still pointed at them.

"Not anymore, I’ve put it on hold," Fu Xingzhou put the person down on the bed and dropped the drowsy Sijiu there as well.

Sijiu: I shouldn’t be on the bed, I should be under it.

"I have an injury on my foot." Ye Yan tried to save himself.

"I’ll be careful." Fu Xingzhou completely disregarded her defiance and kissed the lips that were still resisting.

Ye Yan pushed him away, "Guess who I just met?"

"Who?" Fu Xingzhou kissed her cheek, feigning ignorance.

"Shen Wan’er, Mr. Chen’s sister."

Her serious demeanor made Fu Xingzhou burst into laughter, "Dr. Ye is really naive. Do you actually believe they are siblings?"

"I know Miss Shen was raised by the Chen Family, they’re not biological siblings."

"They sleep in the same room, on the same bed." Fu Xingzhou enjoyed the variety of expressions on her face, "And you still think they are siblings?"

"Even if they’re not, they’re in love."

"Just a love that will lead nowhere." Fu Xingzhou pinched her cheek, "The Chen Family will never let Chen Yiren marry Shen Wan’er."

"Because she’s disabled?"

Fu Xingzhou did not deny it, "With the Chen Family’s wealth and status, even if they don’t need a marriage alliance, they would never let Chen Yiren marry a woman with flaws. This person represents the face of the Chen Family, and the Chen Family cannot afford to be the subject of gossip. The woman who marries into the Chen Family must be perfect in both looks and status."

"You mean, no matter how good Chen Yiren is to Shen Wan’er, he cannot marry her, right?"

"Yes."

Ye Yan’s face darkened. Previously unaware of their relationship, now that she understood, she realized why Shen Wan’er’s eyes shone like a young girl’s when she mentioned Chen Yiren, full of admiration, unreserved love, and deep-seated despair.

"What kind of ridiculous rules are these?" Ye Yan suddenly hugged the man, "The Fu Family doesn’t have such ridiculous rules."

Fu Xingzhou laughed, "Are you saying you’re lucky the Fu Family doesn’t adhere to such strict rules, so you could marry me?"

"Mr. Fu could be a bit thicker-skinned."

Fu Xingzhou touched her nose with his, and as Ye Yan giggled trying to escape, they created a lovely scene amidst their playful antics.

After a while, the woman on the bed was utterly exhausted, her eyelids heavy, barely able to open.

Fu Xingzhou stood up, fetched a warm towel to clean her, and she muttered reluctantly; he sternly warned, "Want to go another round?"

Ye Yan obediently stayed still, quickly falling asleep.

The computer conference reconnected, and the high-ranking executives who were abruptly adjourned earlier logged back online.

The next morning, just waking up, Ye Yan felt a chill on her ankle. Pulling back the blanket, she saw the wounded area had been properly medicated, but the man was nowhere to be seen in the room.

He always had abundant energy, capable of staying up late or rising early, seemingly a never-resting robot.

He was probably out running.

Soon after, the butler knocked and entered.

Breakfast was ready in the dining room; she had missed last night’s dinner, and continued absence would surely lead to misunderstandings.

Fortunately, after a night of recovery, her foot hurt less when touched, but Ye Yan still decided it was better to be cautious, hopping along as she walked.

When she appeared in the dining room, Shen Wan’er immediately came over to assist her.

Seeing Shen Wan’er reminded her of the relationship with Chen Yiren, filling Ye Yan’s heart with melancholy.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Ye Yan asked.

Shen Wan’er stared at her face for a moment, then tucked her long hair behind her ears, the hearing aid that should have been in her ear was gone.
