« Grosse femme je suis affamé ! »

Chapitre 26

Having piqued his curiosity, he then added with a wicked glint in his dark eyes, "And while you're at it, invite your assistant too. Yang, was it because someone's technique was so bad last night that she was scared?"

"You want to try it yourself?" Fang Weiyang gave his friend a wicked sidelong glance, but his mind was elsewhere.

He was indeed too rough last night, knowing she was a virgin, yet he repeatedly made insatiable demands, probably because he was too excited. It seemed... he chuckled to himself, that man named Lucky was nothing to fear. The only other thing was that brat born to the witch and the tomboy... wait, what was wrong with him? How could a woman who was a virgin just over ten hours ago give birth to a son?

Something fishy is going on here!

"I've already booked your plane ticket. You can leave tomorrow."

Pei Zaiyu's sudden words interrupted his thoughts. He frowned unconsciously, "Tomorrow?"

"You haven't forgotten the annual business report, have you?" Pei Zaiyu raised an eyebrow and said sarcastically, his tone full of teasing. "This time, the headquarters chose Hawaii, a resort paradise, with sunshine, beaches, and hot, passionate women—all your favorites."

He was more optimistic than anyone that Yang had found his true love, but could that carefree woman surnamed Feng really bring Yang happiness? He wasn't sure.

So it might be better to take this opportunity to let him calm down. Besides, Japan has already taken action, hasn't it? Rather than a painful standoff, it's better to avoid seeing him altogether.

"Do I really have to go?" Fang Weiyang still frowned, but this time it was purely for his friend's sake. "It's been seven years, can't you accept them?"

"Them?" He shook his head and smiled faintly.

“I have no more grudges, but you are,” Pei Zaiyu said with a hint of hesitation, “Zhuo told me they’ve arrived.”

"That lecherous Zhuo Hua is such a blabbermouth." Fang Weiyang chuckled and teased, "Did he mention that he ran into his ex-wife at his engagement party, and that the woman acted like she'd seen a ghost when she saw him, and that she even secretly gave birth to his five-year-old daughter?"

"Oh, really?" A graceful smile curved his lips. He thought with relief, did Yang's smile mean that the unbearable past was now a thing of the past?

"Okay, let's leave tomorrow!"

His smile hardened, and he stood up to leave. Well, there was no rush to confront the tomboy; he needed to give her some time to think things through. After all, they had a long life ahead of them, and he didn't want her sneaking away while he showered after their lovemaking. Besides, Jiro and Minako were there too; he couldn't give Minako any illusions. If he couldn't wait, Jiro would eventually confront Minako.

After all, this trip would last for a month.

One month later, at the Oni Building.

"Hello, I'm here to visit your Vice General Manager, Mr. Fang Weiyang." Speaking fluent Chinese, Minako Takahashi was still dressed in a white dress, her waist-length hair cascading over her shoulders, looking as delicate and elegant as a princess from a fairy tale.

"Do you have an appointment?" Even though she had been looking at it for almost a month, the saleswoman still stared wide-eyed with amazement and envy.

"No, but he will see me, please!" Although she couldn't hide her disappointment, a pitiful smile appeared on her exquisite and perfect face, captivating everyone present.

"Please." She bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle.

"Okay, I'll call and ask." Picking up the phone, still captivated by her gentle beauty, the receptionist glanced sideways and, upon seeing the two women rushing into the lobby, exclaimed with a mixture of surprise and delight, "Great! Assistant Feng, could you please come over here for a moment?"

Having just finished a shopping spree with Ye Zi during her lunch break, Feng Zi was so tired she could barely lift her feet. When she heard Ye Zi call her, she forced a smile and leaned over, "Is something wrong?"

"This young lady is looking for Vice President Fang," the counter clerk said urgently. On one hand, she felt a pang of sympathy for the beautiful woman in distress; on the other hand, seeing such a beautiful woman so devoted to the vice president might just dispel the rumor that he was gay. A win-win situation.

“You are…” She stared blankly at Takahashi Minako for a few seconds, then was suddenly jolted awake by the familiar coldness in her eyes. She remembered her—the woman with an unclear relationship with Fang Weiyang.

“Do you still recognize me? We met briefly at a dinner party hosted by the Zhuo family a month ago,” Feng Zi said eagerly. “My name is Feng Zi, and I am Fang Weiyang’s special administrative assistant.”

"A madman?" Lowering her eyes slightly to conceal the resentment and unwillingness in her heart, she said in a cold tone, "I know you."

She knew that Hideki almost killed someone for her sake, and she also knew about his indulgence and pampering of her, things that should have been her and Ruri's privileges.

madman?

Ye Zi, who had been silent to the side, raised an eyebrow. Judging from this woman's proficiency in Chinese, she was afraid that the grammatical error was a deliberate provocation!

"It's Feng Zi," the silly Feng Zi, unfazed by her hostility, pointed it out with a grin. She couldn't help it; she was just curious. What was the relationship between this woman and the Empress… uh, Fang Weiyang? Why didn't even Zhuo Se Gui dare to say? She was dying of curiosity.

Her innocent expression was like a knife, piercing straight into the old wound in her heart. How long ago was it that she, who was originally pure and innocent, became so vulgar and hurt others with words?

She turned swiftly, still maintaining her noble manners, and walked out with her head held high, unwilling to remain in the place that disgusted her. Behind her, however, came a graceful, delicate cry—

"The vice president is scheduled to return the day after tomorrow."

The day after tomorrow, Brother Hideki, would you be willing to see me, and poor Ruri? She paused, but left without looking back.

"You know her, or do you have a grudge against her?"

Carrying shopping bags of all sizes, Ye Zi finally spoke after stepping into the elevator.

In contrast, Feng Zi, who was empty-handed, grinned and made a face. "I don't know her. I've only met her once. But, you know, she might have a close relationship with Vice President Fang Weiyang."

"Then how can you still laugh?!" she yelled.

Since Fengzi's drunken escapade, her period indeed didn't come for a while. A hospital check-up revealed she was pregnant. So she and Lucky began to take meticulous care of her, afraid she would choke while eating, afraid she would fall while walking, and they went to great lengths to find the scoundrel who had taken advantage of her... Well, even though it was Azi who ran away first, shouldn't he have at least taken advantage of her innocent virginity without even saying goodbye?

Based on various signs and Pei Zaiyu and Zhuo Sepei's ambiguous attitude, she and Lucky privately believed that Fang Weiyang was the most suspicious. Therefore, she was furious when she heard that Fang had entanglements with other women.

"Why can't I laugh? You told Lucky that I should keep a happy mood so that I can have a healthy baby, and now you're scolding her!" She pouted, looking extremely aggrieved.

This is outrageous! It's clearly bullying!

She lifted her thick, fan-like eyelashes, and in an instant, her beautiful eyes were filled with a suspicious glint of water.

"You...you..." Ye Zi stared at her so hard her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Oh my god, is it happening again?

Ever since Ah Zi discovered she was pregnant, her emotions have become particularly sensitive and unstable. Often, a slightly raised voice or an unintentional cold look can set her into a fit of tears, driving even the most sage to despair.

Resignedly putting down the shopping bags, she stretched out her hands, then closed them, gently patting the back of the person who had thrown herself into her arms, and softly comforted her, "Don't cry, Azi, be good, don't cry..."
