Chapter 84: Cheap Thing (1)

Thanks to that drunken memory from her previous life, Ye Sui knew that she would talk to people out of her heart whenever she was drunk. Although there were no unpleasant events back then, she was not sure this time.

Especially when all her thoughts focused on Chen Shu. Ye Sui felt that she wanted to embrace him and would never let go of him. Then she would confess her feelings vigorously and say everything she wanted to tell him.

Ye Sui’s face began to get hot, and she could feel the heat reaching her face. She immediately stood up and said, “Let’s hurry home.”

On the other hand, Chen Shu’s attitude was different from Ye Sui’s flustered appearance. After getting drunk, he looked quieter than usual. He did what she said and followed her without saying a word.

After they bade goodbye, both of them got into the car.

They were sitting in the back row of the car, leaving a space between them. Ye Sui did not dare to look at Chen Shu.

Ye Sui opened the window, and the night wind blew quietly across the long street. The cold air in the early winter brushed her face, but it didn’t help.

The car stopped at the parking lot of their building. They got out of the car and entered the elevator. This time, Ye Sui felt dizzy. She went next to Chen Shu and leaned against the cold elevator behind her.

As the elevator went up floor by floor, no one else entered except Chen Shu and Ye Sui.

It was said that wine could strengthen a person’s courage, and Ye Sui was no exception. Her spirits went up, and her courage soared. She thought of doing things she wouldn’t do at ordinary times.

Ye Sui looked at Chen Shu from time to time, and the emotions she did not dare to express also came out at this moment.

“Chen Shu,” she suddenly called his name.

Chen Shu seemed to be drunk, and his reaction became slower than usual. After a few seconds, he turned to look at Ye Sui. “What’s wrong?”

Ye Sui leaned against him and stretched out her hand in front. Without any scruples, she spoke what she dared not say before.

“I want to hold hands.”

Because of drunkenness, Ye Sui’s voice was somewhat aggrieved, just like a child who could not get a toy.

If she were normal, Ye Sui would never say such a thing so blatantly. Instead, she would take the opportunity of being afraid of ghosts to hold Chen Shu’s hand.

Chen Shu did not hesitate at all. He immediately reached out and held Ye Sui’s hand. He then closed his palm and wrapped Ye Sui’s hand in his own.

Even though she took advantage of being drunk, she was still not satisfied with the current situation. Ye Sui frowned and beat Chen Shu’s hand away.

With a pa, Chen Shu’s hand was knocked off.

Chen Shu didn’t understand Ye Sui’s action, looking at her blankly.

“I want to hold it like this.” Perhaps she had searched too much information about dating on the internet recently. Ye Sui firmly remembered that a boyfriend and girlfriend didn’t hold hands this way. 

Holding hands meant interlocking each other’s fingers.

Ye Sui took the initiative to put her finger through the space between Chen Shu’s fingers and clenched it until she showed a satisfied smile. “This is the way.”

Seeing Ye Sui’s content appearance, he firmly held Ye Sui’s hand.

Hand in hand, the couple walked all the way back to their house. As soon as Chen Shu turned on the light on the porch, Ye Sui tugged on his shirt.

“Chen Shu, I am thirsty and want to drink water.” Ye Sui’s thoughts were full of Chen Shu, and she must do everything with him.

Chen Shu actually retracted his hand obediently. They stumbled towards the kitchen by using the light at the entrance since none of the lights on the top of the living room were turned on.

Chen Shu took a cup and bent down to fill it. Ye Sui also bowed slightly, watching him get the water.

Chen Shu handed the cup to Ye Sui. “Drink.”

Ye Sui took it with satisfaction. After drinking a big mouthful of water, she gave the cup back to Chen Shu. “Do you want to drink?”

Chen Shu didn’t care that Ye Sui had used the cup. He naturally held it and took a sip.

Chen Shu and Ye Sui, who did not know they had kissed indirectly, went to the sofa and sat down.

In the whole room, only the light at the porch was on, which made the living room dim. Ye Sui had to stay close to see Chen Shu’s face clearly.

“Chen Shu, do you think it’s a little dark here?”

 

Chapter 84: Cheap Thing (2)

Ye Sui frowned;; she couldn’t see Chen Shu anymore.

Chen Shu glanced around the house and wrinkled his brows. “The light is broken. I will find someone to fix it tomorrow.”

The two drunkards discussed the topic seriously while the lights were not turned on. If other people heard them, they would surely think that the couple had some problems.

A gust of wind blew inside, sending a chill over Ye Sui’s body and causing her to sneeze.

When Chen Shu heard the sneeze, his body immediately leaned toward her. He wanted to see Ye Sui’s face. However, the light was too dark, so he had to get close to her.

But neither felt uncomfortable in this awkward position.

Chen Shu said, “Did you catch a cold?”

Ye Sui shook her head. “Not cold, I…” When Ye Sui met Chen Shu’s dark eyes, she was stunned.

Looking at Chen Shu’s eyes, Ye Sui wanted to say something. So she spoke about her feelings without thinking.

“I think I like you. I like you more than you imagine.” Ye Sui spoke every word earnestly, fearing Chen Shu could not hear it.

Chen Shu paused for a few seconds. “Me too.”

Ye Sui was stunned. She then specifically emphasized, “No! I liked you first.”

Chen Shu denied, not acknowledging what Ye Sui said. “I liked you first.”

Ye Sui’s indomitable spirit surged up at this moment. “It was I who first wanted to be with you every day, to eat with you, to go shopping together, and to watch TV together.”

Fearing Chen Shu’s disapproval, Ye Sui chanted again, “It was I who liked you first. It’s me, me.”

A smile appeared in Chen Shuo’s eyes, and he immediately compromised. “Okay, you liked me first.”

Once Ye Sui’s small temper met Chen Shu’s tolerant behavior, she was dumbfounded. She looked at his smiling eyes and moved on instinct.

Ye Sui’s eyes were closed, and she inched closer to Chen Shu. She didn’t open her eyes until her lips touched someone else’s.

At the moment, the distance between Ye Sui and Chen Shu almost disappeared. She met Chen Shu’s eyes. The dry feeling was like warm and soft water, flooding her lips and reaching her heart.

Ye Sui’s cheeks were hot. This light kiss also had a slight alcoholic taste.

Ye Sui panicked, subconsciously tilting her head back and trying to back away. Just after leaving, she suddenly felt a force from her neck that pulled her forward.

Chen Shu wrapped his arms around Ye Sui’s neck, shortening the distance between the two again. Their lips pressed together as they entwined their hot breaths.

Ye Sui felt like she was about to suffocate, as if she was wrapped in a layer of invisible barrier. She couldn’t sense anything around her except Chen Shu’s warm lips.

In the dull light, the two seemed to merge together into the gentle darkness.

In the morning, the dazzling sunlight entered the room and fell on Ye Sui’s face. Her eyelashes moved, and she slowly opened her eyes.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Ye Sui let out a low growl as she pressed her temple. The severe pain made her head sink.

Ye Sui struggled to sit up from the bed because she had a splitting headache and a dry throat after drinking too much wine. She dragged her body step by step to the bathroom, trying to wash her face to clear her head. As she stood in front of the mirror, she suddenly noticed that the corners of her mouth were inflamed.

Ye Sui touched it with her hand and hissed. She looked at the mirror with a puzzled look. Did I bump it somewhere?

Ye Sui thought carefully about last night’s events, and surprisingly, her memory came to a screeching halt after leaving the Chen family, not remembering a single bit afterward.

What did she do after she and Chen Shu were sent home?

According to the current situation, she was lying on the bed obediently. She should have done nothing wrong last night, right?

At the same time, Chen Shu was also standing in front of the mirror in his room in confusion, his brow furrowed because of his drunken headache. He looked at his lips in the mirror. The corners of his mouth were stained a little red.

Chen Shu wiped it, and it was gone. Was it dirt?

 

Chapter 84: Cheap Thing (3)

Chen Shu didn’t even think about the lipstick. He couldn’t even imagine that it was the lipstick on Ye Sui’s mouth that had rubbed on his lips.

Because last night ‘s wine was too strong, when Ye Sui and Chen Shu broke off, they forgot all about their kiss last night, the things they argued about, and their love confessions.

Ye Sui and Chen Shu opened the door of the room at the same time. They said good morning to each other and then walked towards the entrance together.

Ye Sui carefully watched Chen Shu’s reaction. His attitude to her now was the same as before, without any change.

It showed that she really didn’t do anything last night and didn’t say anything.

After Ye Sui confirmed this, she was relieved.

As they passed the sofa, they stopped subconsciously. Their eyes fell on the sofa, and they frowned together, making the same expression.

What did this ordinary sofa have to do with them that made them stop?

Ye Sui and Chen Shu glanced at each other and noticed their incomprehension. Was there something important that they had forgotten last night?

However, the few glasses of strong liquor were enough to make them forget these things. They thought nothing had happened and left their doubts behind. Next, they walked out of the house one after the other.

********

Dior officials announced that Ye Sui was their brand’s new face and would endorse the latest collection of perfumes.

Then, they released the perfume advertisement. Ye Sui sat in a red retro sports car and smiled at the camera. Her smile was like bright sunshine, warming the early winter.

The ads were forwarded to various forums. Ye Sui’s performance in her first luxury ad was unexpected for everyone.

“When will the perfume be available? Is it too late to go to their branch tomorrow?”

“Am I the only one who wants to buy Ye Sui’s lipstick?”

“Girl, you are not alone. I also want to buy Ye Sui’s skirt. I’m begging the great goddess to disclose her lipstick color, eyeshadow…”

The broadcast volume of this advertisement was snowballing. Many netizens watched it again and again. For the first time, Ye Sui had attempted vintage style, and it was stunning.

Seeing Ye Sui appear in the camera and every detail of her full body, she had a bright smile and noble temperament. She had removed the cold taste of the past and was full of femininity.

Women who were obsessed with their looks were left with only one thought: buy, buy, and buy.

On the night that Dior perfume advertisement was made public, the brand requested Ye Sui to stream live on the internet for publicity.

After a busy day at work, Ye Sui told Chen Shu that she would stream live at home. The netizens would be watching, so he better stay in his room.

Fifteen minutes before the live stream began, Chen Shu was still strolling in the living room.

Ye Sui had already set up her cell phone, fully charging it, and was ready to start her live stream as soon as the time was up. When she was done preparing, she looked up at Chen Shu. “Are you still not going back to your room?”

Chen Shu shook his head and took a chair from the kitchen to sit down in the living room.

Ye Sui: “…”

Chen Shu moved the chair to a spot not far opposite Ye Sui, just where the camera wouldn’t catch him. He then asked tentatively, “How about this?”

Ye Sui had no idea what to do with Chen Shu, so she repeatedly stressed, “When it comes to the live stream later, you must not enter the camera or make any noise.”

Chen Shu agreed, leaned back, and stared at Ye Sui quietly. The light in the living room softened her eyebrows.

He closed his mouth and didn’t speak. Chen Shu was originally a man of few words, and when he was alone, he could go all day without uttering a word.

After the explanation, Ye Sui no longer cared for Chen Shu. She clicked on the live stream app and started streaming. Fans who were already waiting flocked in, and the number of people in the live broadcast room surged.

Ye Sui bent her lips at the phone and smiled.

“Ah, it finally arrived. A fairy has once again descended on earth! Can Ye Sui do live broadcasting more? You are really beautiful!”

“Front row seats! I want to monopolize Ye Sui. My wife, look at me!”

Seeing the two words on the screen ‘my wife’, Ye Sui paused for a second. Her mind flashed with Chen Shu’s previous words, and she couldn’t hold back a laugh.

At this time, Chen Shu’s sixth sense kicked in. He was super sensitive to the message she had received.

 

Chapter 84: Cheap Thing (4)

Chen Shu, who was sitting across from her, silently took out his cell phone and saw a bullet screen calling Ye Sui their wife.

His face slightly darkened as he immediately registered an account, entered a comment, and sent it out.

“She is my wife alone. I don’t allow any rebuttals.”

The comment on the internet looked similar to the above, but no one could see the bitterness contained in it.

The company’s president, Chen Shu, was among the netizens and could not see any difference between his tone and that of the other netizens. He just sat there by himself, eating stifled jealousy alone.

Ye Sui was looking down at her cell phone and didn’t find Chen Shu’s comment. In addition, she did not look at Chen Shu, who was sitting there. What if she had eye contact with him and the netizens discovered it?

As a result, Chen Shu’s remarks of swearing sovereignty over her were submerged in the bullet screen.

Chen Shu wouldn’t leave it at that, though. He kept repeating his comments during the live stream, pushing his presence up to attract Ye Sui’s attention.

“Ye Sui, your makeup looks good today. You really look like a goddess. Can you tell me what the red lipstick’s number is?”

“She is my wife alone. I don’t allow any rebuttals.”

“When will the new movie be released? Really looking forward to it! Can you spoil it a little?”

“She is my wife alone. I don’t allow any rebuttals.”

“What’s the matter with Ye Sui’s husband fan? It’s been brushing the screen and has seriously affected my viewing of the live broadcast! Stop talking and shut up!”

Ye Sui: “…”

Ye Sui pretended to be thirsty and took a look at Chen Shu while picking up the glass.

The next second, as expected, Ye Sui saw the grumbling in Chen Shu’s eyes. So he was the husband fan just now. He had become skilled at spamming.

Ye Sui smiled. Chen Shu was not her husband fan. He was a real husband.

Ye Sui was sitting on the edge of the sofa. Behind her was a small, high table with a vase on it. At this time, someone sent a question in the comments.

“Ye Sui, is that an antique behind you?”

The comment quickly swiped. When Ye Sui looked down at her cell phone, it was gone. After a while, someone mentioned the topic again.

“That vase is super beautiful. It seems to be a real antique.”

“Hey, are we talking about antiques now? But I’d love to know.”

It wasn’t until the focus in the bullet screen was shifted to the authenticity of the vase behind Ye Sui that she turned around suspiciously and looked at it.

The moment her eyes fell on the vase, Ye Sui thought of her previous experience of buying a vase in the antique market.

The ten vases were all purchased for Chen Shu, and after buying them, Ye Sui didn’t care anymore. She let him keep them at home, probably because he had put them here.

Chen Shu also saw the question from netizens. He looked at the vase behind Ye Sui.

Among the vases Ye Sui got, one was genuine, while the other nine were all fakes. Chen Shu bought the real thing at an auction.

He then replaced the fake vase with the real one and left it at home. The fake was then taken to his office and placed there, where it would be pleasing to the eyes every day.

If Ye Sui knew that he had replaced the vase she had bought, she might be unhappy.

He never understood the woman’s thoughts, and of course, he also couldn’t figure out Ye Sui’s. As a result, he planned to tell her about it later.

Ye Sui looked at the phone screen and continued her live stream. Chen Shu also withdrew his eyes and looked down at the phone silently.

In front of Chen Shu, Ye Sui opened her mouth with a smile and clarified, “What real antique? I just picked it up at the antique market.”

After listening to Ye Sui’s clarification, Chen Shu continued to hold the phone without changing his expression.

At the end, Ye Sui did not forget to emphasize the sentence, “It’s very cheap.”

A crack finally appeared in Chen Shu’s calm composure: “…”
