Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside
Chapter 177 Big Tail Wolf (Second Update)

Chapter 177: 177 Big Tail Wolf (Second Update)

The officer took the couple away.

Seeing there was no more drama to watch, the guests also left in twos and threes.

Feeling embarrassed, the salesperson stood in front of Su Xiaofeng and sincerely apologized, "Miss Su, I’m sorry, I testified without clarifying the situation, almost causing you trouble. I’m really sorry."

Unexpectedly, the other party knew Manager Yao, who even helped them call the police. Fortunately, she had quickly changed her statement. If she had insisted that the other party was guilty of assault, what would Manager Yao think of her?

Xiaofeng smiled at her, which was her way of accepting the apology.

She couldn’t very well tell the other person that they weren’t wrong, that Ye Cheng had indeed hit someone, and then explain that Ye Cheng was actually suffering from a condition, a condition where he couldn’t be touched by women.

She definitely couldn’t bring herself to say that.

"Alright, go back to work," Manager Yao waved at the salesperson and glanced at Ye Cheng, who was standing near Su Xiaofeng, "Your boyfriend?"

She was capable of independently taking over the factory. It wouldn’t be strange for her to have a boyfriend.

"He’s my older brother," Su Xiaofeng said bravely, "He was worried about me coming alone, so he specially accompanied me."

Ye Cheng’s complexion had greatly improved, and his eyes had returned to looking natural. He didn’t object to Su Xiaofeng’s introduction and extended his hand to shake with the other party, "Hello, Ye Cheng."

Feeling the strong presence of the other party, Manager Yao instinctively shook back, "Hello, Yao Yunnian."

"Because I am a year older than her, she calls me big brother."

"I thought so, you two don’t look alike at all." Being a man, how could he not sense the underlying meaning in the words, "Brotherly and sisterly affection, that’s what’s trending now."

Hearing Manager Yao’s words, Su Xiaofeng was inwardly furious, wondering where Manager Yao’s thoughts were wandering. She and Ye Cheng, that was definitely not a possibility.

Ye Cheng didn’t seem to mind.

"Go ahead and shop, I have some errands to run. Next time you come by, I’ll treat you to a meal," Yao Yunnian said, glancing at Ye Cheng again, feeling sure he had never met him before, yet he seemed familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

Xiaofeng whispered softly, "Ye Cheng, from now on, when we are out, I’ll just be your sister, your real sister, to avoid any misunderstandings."

It didn’t matter much to her; at most, it was taking advantage of Ye Cheng. Ye Cheng was different, such a fine young man, surely deserving a better woman in the future, right?

She had made up her mind to have the baby by herself and raise it alone, so she wasn’t too concerned about matters of lifelong commitment.

Listening to her, Ye Cheng extended his hand, "My dear sister, come, let your brother hold your hand."

A brother holding his sister’s hand, isn’t that a common sight?

Xiaofeng shook her head, "No, you forgot, you cannot..."

Before Xiaofeng could refuse, Ye Cheng grabbed her right hand and held it in his palm, "Let’s go, didn’t you want to buy clothes? Let’s look around."

Xiaofeng, her hand being held, felt her heart racing, wondering what Ye Cheng meant by this.

He— he—.

It took a while before he said, "You’re not disgusted by me."

She remembered, just moments ago, it seemed like he had a reaction because a woman touched him, and now he seemed fine.

"You already said, you’re my sister. You’re my sister, not some other woman. Even if I wanted to feel repelled, I couldn’t," Ye Cheng rationalized his action of holding hands, thinking that from now on, he might as well hold someone’s hand openly."

Xiaofeng: "...."

So that works too.

Walking in front of Ye Cheng, she looked at him dubiously, "So you’re really okay now, then what about just now?"

Just a short while ago, it seemed like he had two episodes.

"What happened just now is past, now is now," Ye Cheng obviously couldn’t say that the first episode was faked, "Of course, I can’t guarantee it won’t happen again. They say doctors can’t heal themselves, maybe it will happen again at some time."

"Let’s go, why think so much." Ye Cheng saw her frowning and thought she was going to say something, so he pulled her forward.

Su Xiaofeng, this woman, was good in many ways, but seemingly not very sensitive towards matters between men and women. She had even had lip contact with him, yet seemingly had no thoughts about him at all.

Was it that his charm was lacking, or was she just slow?

Xiaofeng looked at his figure, feeling that some things needed to be made clear to him; otherwise, she should have a chat with him when they got back.

Yes, she would have a talk with him when they returned.

When they came out of the shopping mall, Ye Cheng was carrying five or six bags, all Xiaofeng’s. Two sets were bought by Xiaofeng herself, while the rest were bought by Ye Cheng.

Don’t think they were fashionable clothes; they were just some loose clothing, saying she was pregnant, so of course, they had to be roomy.

"Sorry, we only have one room left." When Xiaofeng handed over her ID to the front desk, the staff member smiled apologetically.

"Then forget it, we’ll ask somewhere else." Xiaofeng took back her ID; one room definitely wasn’t enough.

"One room is fine." Ye Cheng took the ID from her hand, "You’re a pregnant woman, what could I possibly do to you? Besides, we’re siblings now, you need to keep your thoughts pure."

"No way." Xiaofeng stood firm, "We’re not real siblings, what would it look like to others?"

She was from the modern era, true, but she also had her principles.

Things and people she shouldn’t touch, she absolutely wouldn’t touch.

Ye Cheng’s mouth twitched, "Does artificial respiration count?"

Xiaofeng looked up, "What?"

Ye Cheng handed the ID to the staff, "One room, thank you."

The staff looked at the two of them, increasingly seeing them as a couple having a tiff, and soon returned the ID, "It’s ready, 305."

Ye Cheng got the key and took Xiaofeng’s hand, heading for the third floor.

Xiaofeng was still thinking about what Ye Cheng had said, what did he mean? He knew about what she had done to him.

"Ye Cheng." Xiaofeng stopped him, "You..."

Ye Cheng suddenly closed the door of the room, stood with his arms propped up, and encircled Xiaofeng, looking down at her from above.

Xiaofeng’s heart skipped a beat.

"Su Xiaofeng." Ye Cheng looked at her seriously, "When I fell ill earlier, I have no recollection of how you saved me. But just now, I wasn’t sick."

His words were clear enough.

Xiaofeng realized something and stepped hard on Ye Cheng’s foot, "So, you were just teasing me just now."

His kiss, and his illness, were all just...

"Wuu..." Xiaofeng wanted to say something else, but Ye Cheng’s head was already descending.

Xiaofeng wanted to reject him, but it was like eating candy, seemingly addictive.

The more she chewed the candy, the sweeter it became, making it irresistible.

Xiaofeng pushed Ye Cheng away, slapping him across the face, "Ye Cheng, what are you doing?"

Although she had been the initiator the previous times, her sole intention was to save him; she had had no other thoughts.

In her heart, she cursed Xiaoqi as well, blaming him for this terrible idea; how could she have thought to transfer any energy to Ye Cheng.

Now look, the man was never sick, and she had become the joke.
