Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 692 - 688 Stop crying! Are you mourning?

----------------

"Enough, stop crying! Are you mourning?!" Zhou Yizhou collapsed gasping for breath, his mind a blank slate of confusion.

Seeing his once beloved and proud Yan Jinxian, at this moment, he no longer felt his wife’s beauty and nobility; instead, a deep-seated fear surged from within him.

How had his own body become like this? After adjusting for over a week, Zhou Yizhou had somewhat understood. It must be the ’wife’ crying in a bewildering mix of real and fake in front of him who had done it!

But he dared not show even a hint of clarity; relying on the last bit of rationality, he acted out a facade of irritation and anger, not even glancing at his wife, ranting and raving with annoyance and fury.

"Don’t bother me, get lost——" Zhou Yizhou couldn’t control the beast within him, feeling as if he couldn’t vent his rage unless he roared it out, a kind of intolerable pressure.

Yan Jinxian carefully watched her husband’s emotions and reactions and then, somewhat relieved, continued to coax:

"Husband, in a bit the ancestral home will hold the Lantern Festival banquet. If you behave, take your medicine to suppress your temper, shall we go with Dad and show our faces? Okay?"

"No."

Zhou Yizhou roared back, his eyes bloodshot, as if his eyeballs had been stained with blood, suddenly looked up at Yan Jinxian, leaping at her like a ferocious beast——

But Yan Jinxian, seemingly anticipating this, staggered to avoid it, and Zhou Yizhou collapsed heavily on the ground without feeling any bodily pain. Nevertheless, he did not get up again, still growling angrily:

"Get lost, get lost, or I’ll kill you!"

Zhou Yizhou felt the entire world was filled with clamorous noises that made his head ache, his thoughts utterly uncontrolled, unable to stop whatever his body wanted to do.

Yan Jinxian was indeed startled by Zhou Yizhou’s ferocious demeanor, a terrified scream stuck in her throat, but in the end she didn’t cry out. She just covered her small mouth, continuing to shrink in a corner until she was sure Zhou Yizhou had exhausted himself and fainted on the ground.

Yan Jinxian felt very conflicted, thinking those from the Wu Family truly harbored no good intentions. If the medication continued like this, Zhou Yizhou’s descent into madness was not far off!

Yet there was no turning back once the bow was drawn. If she wanted to regain some control, she could only continue with the plan!

As long as Yan Jinsu disappeared, her return to the Yan Family would be a matter of minutes. Let the world know Xie Jingchen is a man of questionable character, and once Xie Jingzi loses her support, it would be much easier for her to plot against those she truly desired to.

Yes! As long as she could become the daughter of the Yan Family again, as long as she wasn’t the one at fault, she would always have a chance to seize everything she desired!

At this thought, any hesitation that had briefly surfaced in Yan Jinxian’s mind vanished without a trace.

No matter what, as long as she ascended to the elite, the death of a few people was merely their fated calamity. It couldn’t be blamed on her heartlessness!

Composing herself, Yan Jinxian took out a syringe, located a vein on the shoulder, and completed the injection in five seconds. Then she found medication, making sure her husband swallowed it, before she strenuously helped Zhou Yizhou back to his room to rest.

When Zhou Yizhou awoke again, he would be tame. Only then could she attend the Lantern Festival banquet without a hitch.

Otherwise, as a young wife, she couldn’t always follow her father-in-law out. That would look too unseemly, and Zhou Guola wasn’t so old as to be immobile; she did not want to lose face.

For fear of getting hurt by Zhou Yilang, plus having just moved into a new home, Yan Jinxian’s house didn’t have much clutter, which made tidying easier. She just needed to clean up the broken wood, which was simple enough.

Having moved out, it wouldn’t look good for her not to lift a finger, but she was inept at cooking. Thinking of the money she still had, Yan Jinxian felt no financial pressure and decided that tomorrow she would hire a cook.

Sure enough, he was only too eager to find every excuse to keep people rooted to one spot, killing two birds with one stone. Why would she refuse such a convenient arrangement?

On the other side, Xie Jingzi was carried back to the room by her husband. After a playful scuffle on the bed, Xie Jingzi was finally helped up by her husband and given a gift box that had been handed over upon her previous return.

"Uncle, what’s this?" Xie Jingzi’s arms were tired out, having been held down earlier to complete the function of a five-finger exercise. Her hands were both soft and sore at the same time.

Even the interest in opening gifts while being held by Uncle had waned.

"My lady, this is the dress you will be wearing tonight." The wealthier the family, the more they enjoyed life.

The Zhou family’s fortune was substantial. After national policies were relaxed, talents who had been ’wandering’ abroad gradually returned to start businesses at home, bringing back a large amount of capital and resources.

This was the solid foundation supporting the continuous power of the Zhou Family, and coupled with the Zhou Family’s clear victory over the Wu Family in their behind-the-scene skirmishes, the development of the Zhou family was further bolstered.

It’s said that the country comes before the family, but the reverse is also true. The development of a family can propel the progress of a nation, making the country increasingly powerful.

Most notably, it has driven economic growth, with several key provincial capitals within the country undergoing enormous transformations over the past year.

Furthermore, Yan Jinsu’s fledgling pharmaceutical business has significantly enhanced the nation’s medical reputation on a global scale, enticing many from overseas, more inclined to return for development.

With the necessary conditions in place, those with wealth and power certainly spare no expense in their spending. After all, who would make life difficult for themselves by not enjoying the fruits of their capabilities when able?

Take, for instance, the extravagant evening gown in Zhou Zhenghui’s hands, not just anybody could afford such an expense. But of course, Zhou Zhenghui’s wife had every right to wear it.

"Wow, so beautiful!" Xie Jingzi hadn’t expected much initially, thinking it was just an ordinary item, but upon opening it, she found her eyes weren’t enough to take it all in—her little hands delicately picked up and shook out the gown.

"Do you like it?" Zhou Zhenghui held his little woman and watched her childlike and straightforward manner with even greater satisfaction.

He liked how his little woman made it clear what she liked, with no secrets hidden from him.

"I love it! Uncle, did you say this dress is for me?" Xie Jingzi gently caressed the fabric of the dress, it was just so silky, it must look amazing to wear!

"Of course. However, after you put on this dress, you need to add the mink coat your mother gave you before the New Year."

Zhou Zhenghui certainly liked his wife to look Meimei, but such beauty was definitely meant only for his own eyes.

With the additional mink coat, the dress would have no exposed areas. The gown was floor-length, draping down to the ankles, and Xie Jingzi, being tall enough, paired it with striking red high-heels. Zhou Zhenghui was aglow just thinking about how beautiful his wife would look dressed in it.

"Uncle, I’ll try it on!"

Because the dress was so beautiful, Xie Jingzi excused herself from her husband’s arms, taking the dress into the changing room to try it on.

The room was supplied with heating, so even wearing such a thin layer of a dress, Xie Jingzi didn’t feel cold. There was only a half-length mirror in the changing room, Xie Jingzi couldn’t see the full effect, so she came out and spun around in front of Zhou Zhenghui, excitedly asking:

"Uncle, do I look good?" After stepping out, Xie Jingzi realized that all she wore was the dress. Speaking, her face blushed as she looked up boldly at the man.

With such a beautiful dress, how could she not assert her presence!

"Hmm—" Inside, Zhou Zhenghui cursed silently: Devilishly beautiful!
