Chen Chen felt ashamed to be the first one to pa.s.s out while kissing, so she did not dare to look at Jiang Rui for many days. Luckily, the man had been busy these days. Every morning she waked up, he had been out and every night she fell asleep, he had not been back yet.
But… she could always sense her chest feverish and swollen these nights, so she calculated the date of her period which might come soon. Besides, it reminded her of the materials she once read before that it might be her b.r.e.a.s.t.s still growing.
“Mom, why have you been so happy these days while my dad’s away?” Tuan Zi was not so pleased because Jiang Rui sent a cook over to cook for them since he was busy. But Tuan Zi thought her dad much better than that cook.
When Chen Chen was secretly delighted at the thought that her breast might be up to 36D, she heard her daughter and glanced her with a complaint. “Bulls.h.i.t, how to you see I’m happy?”
“Your smile makes your eyes nearly invisible.”
“What about now?” Chen Chen asked seriously.
Tuan Zi curled up her lip corner, and said, “tomorrow, I’m going to attend Wen Zeyu’s birthday party but I don’t know if my dad will send me there.”
“Then you will go to school the day after tomorrow!” Chen Chen continued. Chen Chen calculated the date and realized she had been off school for a week. Now it turned out that Lu Qi’s death had nothing to do with Jiang Rui so the Bai family would not seek trouble, which meant she could go back to school and teach lessons.
“Don’t worry that the school will sack you,” Tuan Zi said. “My dad has asked leave for you. It’s OK even if you don’t show up at school.”
But Chen Chen was considering another thing. She had promised Ah Zi’s friend to make drugs for them. Later, being afraid of her ident.i.ty being exposed, Ah Zi persuaded her to stop. However, yesterday, Ah Zi said the danger might have pa.s.sed. So she decided to go back to school and in this way, she could find a chance to make the drugs.
In the office, Jiang Rui was hearing Bear’s report about the progress over the past few days.
“But I don’t know what Wen Pintang’s man has said, Ah Zi finally agrees to make a deal, but the price has been doubled.” Bear was excited but at the same time upset. What made him agitated was that he pretended to be that deceased guy to talk to Ah Zi. What was worse, though Ah Zi provided drugs to the black market, she did not know anything more.
Bear felt that Ah Zi must have been not so well. A girl was helpless and got no one to rely on, so she was forced to choose this path.
“I say, don’t put up a look to show you might have lost a comrade?” Xiao Si could not bear to see him being like that and he continued, “you’ve gone through the doc.u.ments about Ah Zi and she’s among the top ten of the globally wanted hackers. Will you still show pity for such a person?”
If not for this accident, Xiao Si would be mistake Ah Zi for a nickname. But out of expectation, it was her real name. “There is a surnamed called Ah…”
“Schedule the meeting as soon as possible.” Jiang Rui darted a glance at Bear and said, “You don’t have to take part in this task so that you won’t feel caught in a dilemma.”
Bear shook his head and said, “I’ll go and I won’t show up there.”
He was still worried if those coa.r.s.e soldiers might hurt Ah Zi.
The next day, Jiang Rui stayed at home so Chen Chen would wake up to see the man’s face. She moved awkwardly to make her smile more natural. She uttered, “Morning, why don’t you go to the army?”
“Not until afternoon.” Jiang Rui held her, thinking that staying in bed was so good. Then his hands rubbed under Chen Chen’s waist, only to find the woman in his arms got stiff again.
Lately, Chen Chen had viewed it on the Internet that a man was the most dangerous animal when it was in the morning. She could even felt the thing against her thighs got harder and harder, so she became huddled and motionless.
“Today, when you come to the Wen family, you don’t have to say h.e.l.lo to those you don’t like. Whoever picks a fight with you, you can fight back.” Jiang Rui gave her a contempt look and went on, “don’t lose my face for you’re my wife. No one can touch you except for me.”
These words did not sound good…
Chen Chen lifted her lips and said, “I’m going to get up.” When she had just thrown the quit off, she was held back again, under Jiang Rui’s body. “I’ve been busy lately, so you must take good care of yourself and Tuan Zi. Don’t let me worry.”
“I… I got it… You should get up.” Chen Chen flushed and cover her eyes to avoid seeing Jiang Rui. Seeing a naked chest of man, and hearing that flirting “emmm…” were so hard to resist.
Jiang Rui had kissed her on the lip for several times and finally rose from the bed. “Go brush your teeth.”
“Then why you kiss since it was smelly?” Chen Chen mumbled and ran into the toilet.
After getting prepared, the three of them set off by car. Jiang Rui began to find fault with Tuan Zi for she was so beautiful today, which one could tell she attached too much importance to this birthday party. Chen Chen showed contempt for his att.i.tude. But when they arrived, they found Wen Zeyu invited Tuan Zi only.
“Is this the so-called birthday party?” Jiang Rui’s face darkened while Wen Pintang’s smile was so amiable. “Right!” he answered.
Jiang Rui lifted Tuan Zi and was to leave, but Wen Zeyu stepped in front and said, “un… uncle…, please let Tuan Zi stay. I will take care of her!” The little child raised his head and looked at him steadily.
“What was that expression?” Jiang Rui really wanted to kick off Wen Zeyu. “Tuan Zi was my daughter. Since when she needed your care…”
“Don’t you have business to attend to! Go.” Chen Chen poked him and whispered to him, “it’s his birthday and he was only a child. Don’t be so rude!”
He reckoned there was a need to teach a lesson to this woman who was tried to help others. But when he saw Chen Chen roll her eyes so gracefully, he felt so comfortable, and even that annoying boy looked pretty much better.
“Well, you take care of yourself. Let them send you home in the evening.” Jiang Rui pointed at Wen Pintang and continued, “besides, don’t be reserved. Tell him if you have anything to eat.”
Xie Hong was laughing all the time by their side, and her laugh became deeper. “That’s for sure. Please don’t worry, officer Jiang!”
When Jiang Rui went away, Wen Zeyu finally felt relief. He checked his clothing and walked by the side of Tuan Zi. “Tuan Zi, shall we eat ice-cream?” he asked.
“Fine!” Tuan Zi smiled and handed a box over to him. “Happy birthday. It’s for you!” Tuan Zi said.
Wen Zeyu took it with surprise and said thanks with excitement. With great carefulness, he held it in hands and walked inside with Tuan Zi. At the sight of this, Xie Hong could not help but say to Chen Chen, “Look, what’s the point to have a boy? He takes no notice of me even so soon.”
“Zeyu was lovely and I’m so delighted that he would like to be friends with Tuan Zi!” Chen Chen did not think as much as Jiang Rui for she thought it was good for Tuan Zi to have friends.
Instead, Xie Hong felt guilty for her son already had feelings for their daughter, and his father even helped him to win her heart.
Although they did not know what Wen Zeyu led Tuan Zi to do, Tuan Zi’s giggles could always be heard. Xie Hong also introduced to Chen Chen all kinds of fashionable places to go. She gave her several VIP cards from many stores so that they could visit them together.
Having finished the dinner, Wen Pintang drove them home in person. Wen Zeyu went too. The two little friends were playing games on the back seat.
“Tuan Zi was brilliant. Send her off to school the next year for she won’t learn something new in the kindergarten.” Wen Pintang said seemingly casually. “The two of them can apply for the same school.”
Wen Zeyu was one year older than Tuan Zi and he would go to school the next year.
Chen Chen went into silence and thought that Jiang Rui had told her Tuan Zi was able to skip grades with her intelligence but they did not wish that for Tuan Zi. No matter what the future would be like, they should at least safeguard a normal childhood for the child.
“It can’t be counted as skipping a grade.” Wen Pintang seemed to know exactly what she was thinking and continued, “only to attend school a year early. Many children tried this nowadays.” He smiled and added, “of course, only advice. You need to hear Tuan Zi’s opinion.”
Tuan Zi said suddenly, “sure, I want to go to school early.”
“You would like to go?” Chen Chen turned around to asked.
“Yes, I’m sick and tired of staying at the Sinology Kindergarten!” she complained. “Dean Ouyang teaches me only for others are so stupid. But I still want to attend cla.s.s with them.”
Wen Zeyu looked at her sadly, “Tuan… Tuan Zi, am I stupid, too?”
“You’re not bad!”
“Huh, huh!” the boy chuckled.
Jiang Rui did not know Tuan Zi had been set up by Wen Pintang, that shameless hypocrite. Bear finally succeeded in deceiving Ah Zi and she admitted the transaction they made before. What to do next was to wait for her requirements for the meeting.
“Don’t arouse her suspicion.” Jiang Rui was in a good mood for there finally was some progress and plus he did not want Ah Zi to fail or they had to arrest her immediately.
Bear nodded and said, “don’t worry. I’ve told her to visit China and later Xiao Si will change the IP to make her believe that I stay in different cities.”
“Prepare some local products as presents.” Scar interrupted, “Should you redesign the plan? When we ask someone to kidnap her, you come out and save her?”
“Ah!” Bear was so excited and said, “This is good, perfect!”
Jiang Rui did not bother to care about their nonsense so he picked up his coat and prepared to go home. He always felt that Wen Pintang harbored evil thoughts, so he had to go back and check if Chen Chen was alright. Chen Chen was talking to Ah Zi on the phone right now.
“Let me tell you, that hacker called K was really boring. He hacked not only into my computer, but also the ones of the top ten master hackers.” Ah Zi said indignantly, “the computer of that man who bought drugs from us had also been hacked into.”
Chen Chen took a look at the watch and asked absent-mindedly, “So he is the most skillful one now?”
“How is it possible!” Ah Zi screamed. “The first is Zhen Ao whose level has made him a G.o.d.” A series of compliments came from the phone. That Zhen Ao was her G.o.d and her idol.
Ah Zi noted Chen Chen had no reaction to this so she shouted, “Are you hearing me or not?”
“Ah? What?” Chen Chen came to her senses and said, “I’m hearing. Aren’t you praising your G.o.d?”
“Well, well. You are missing a man and I’ll let you go,” Ah Zi minded her and said, “you must hurry to make the drugs. Since Hei Feng has not yet been exposed, we must make this deal.”
Chen Chen nodded and said, “I know. I will go back to school the day after tomorrow. If everything goes well, I will finish it within one week.”
Hearing the door opened, Chen Chen said instantly, “Well. Jiang Rui is back. I’ve gotta go.”
