Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me-Chapter 880 - 712: Love Spans a Thousand Mountains and Rivers, and a Lifetime of Devotion
A brief murmur and nagging.
Qiu Mingyan’s face was as cold as millennial ice and snow, and Li Zhi was surprised beside him.
Yu Yu was knocked out in this village? Almost had an accident? Qiu Mingyan just now started looking for those responsible to beat them up?
Li Zhi’s expression was extremely displeased, as colorful as a kaleidoscope.
Both Qiu Mingyan and Feng Chengyue felt a tremor in their hearts.
This was their greatest fear. The same incident viewed by two people from different standpoints would inevitably appear as entirely different situations.
To the Third Brother, Qiu Mingyan’s actions might seem commendable, very manly; he was willing to fight for Yu Yu. As for the accident... this society has too many accidents, who would look for trouble with nothing to do? As long as one has the capability to handle it, it’s fine.
But to Li Zhi, what she must be thinking at this moment is—what kind of terrifying environment is this, and how does Qiu Mingyan handle things? How could he let such a thing happen to Yu Yu?
People view others through the lens of closeness or distance, especially since Li Zhi always looked at Qiu Mingyan with prejudice, so...
Li Zhi adhered to the noble demeanor of a young madam from a prestigious family and wouldn’t gossip.
But the more she listened, the more her face drooped, tightly pressing her Lancome lipstick-filled red lips to express her deepest displeasure.
After Mai Shixiong finished speaking and left,
Li Zhi just asked, "Which guest room did Cheng Jin stay in when he came?"
Qiu Mingxin raised her hand and pointed.
Li Zhi picked up her LV bag, clipped it to her waist, and turned to enter.
Her tall, cold, graceful back was very gentle, yet it made people’s hearts tremble. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Soon, a series of bed sheets, duvet covers, and daily necessities were respectfully carried in by the deputy housekeeper for replacement.
The air swirled with the faint fragrance of the new bed linens, masking the original mountain dust scent.
Li Zhi waved her hand lightly in front of her nose.
It wasn’t that she intentionally wanted to stay in the room her brother-in-law had slept in, but Li Zhi knew that since Feng Chengjin came, the Qiu Family would naturally give him the best bedroom. Her trip to such a poor mountain village had refreshed the lowest limits of her life’s knowledge. She would find it hard to even bring this up in her future social circle; at the moment, further aggrieving herself was like letting this poor doctor’s life lower her standards!
However, what she found hard to articulate—
was as she walked in, the room still bore the slight refinements Feng Chengjin had arranged before leaving.
At least the wooden bed had an added roll mattress, the headboard was supplemented with a cushion and velvet pillow, and on the wooden table inside the room, there was a set of clean tea utensils, a thermos, and seemingly one day when Feng Chengjin was feeling idle and in a good mood, he found paper and pen and drew a sketch of the nearby landscape. Now it was clumsily framed by the third brother Qiu Mingjun and hung on the wall, with an aura and sentiment it should have.
But the condition here... was still far beyond her expectations!
Whose walls are simply painted over and considered done? Where are the wallpapers? The latex paint? If there’s no luxury decoration, where’s the basic decoration? What’s with these wooden beams? Are a few planks just laid out without being sealed at all? Wouldn’t dust fall at night? Wouldn’t there be tales of rats running overhead at night?
The main issue... such a small room, such shabby and ancient wooden furniture, how can one live in this?
Why on earth would Yu Yu choose this over a good match from a prestigious family, coming to this impoverished backwater to suffer such neglect?
Li Zhi’s brow had been furrowed ever since she entered the room, her heart continuously shocked like waves crashing one after another.
But she was a lady of an esteemed family, and had basic manners. She wouldn’t vocalize these thoughts and knew she needed to give Yu Yu face. She simply maintained a silence, showing her deep dissatisfaction with this marriage through her cold demeanor.
Outside the room, Gui Lanzhi heard Li Zhi’s earlier words and understood that the extraordinary man who came a few days prior really managed to convince the family to let the son marry this Feng Chengyue, feeling infinite emotion and gratitude.
But upon entering, and wanting to express her gratitude to the Feng Family members once again, she continually encountered Li Zhi’s expression, with each glance an unspeakable disdain.
Gui Lanzhi understood it all, silently lowering her head.
Wealthy families are always wealthy families. What she feared most still happened. Marrying into such a family means they’ll forever be under someone’s thumb, unable to lift their heads, right?
Gui Lanzhi withdrew in embarrassment and humility. Outside, Qiu Mingyan watched everything unfold, his hand veins bulging, face more unsightly, lips tightly pressed...
...
By evening, as the sun set in the west, the sun’s afterglow scattered the last trace of warmth on the earth.
