Chapter 422 - You Want to Murder Your Husband

Chapter 422 You Want to Murder Your HusbandThe pick-up port had been surrounded by a lot of people. Shen Yan stood in the middle of the crowd, and Xia Yu could only follow behind in silence. Probably waiting for another ten minutes, there are tourists coming out from the inside with luggage successively. Someone was cheering in the pick-up port, and someone was running over to hug them.

Xia Yu didn’t know whom Shen Yan came for until he waved his hand to the crowd and shouted, “Mr. Huang!”

“Hey! Here!” Someone in the crowd responded.

Xia Yu cast her eyesight in the direction of the sound and found an old man coming out of the crowd. He was not tall, wearing an old-fashioned woolen felt hat, a gray plaid wool vest on the upper body, black pants on her lower part, with a suitcase in one hand, and an old sweater hanging in the other hand. He looked like a little old man who was working in the S city from a remote place.

But Xia Yu knew that he would not be an ordinary person, or Shen Yan would not personally come here and pick him up. She was not a person who liked to talk, so she kept standing aside.

Shen Yan came up to greet him and shook hands with him. “You must be tired. How is the trip?”

“It’s okay. The seat is spacious, but the food is not good. I’m so old to take such a long trip.” The old man’s tone was so hearty, looking like a very comfortable man.

Shen Yan smiled and immediately answered, “The plane meal is definitely not good, but I have already asked some people to prepare dinner.”

The old man listened to his words, and his countenance suddenly fell. He paddled his feet and came near to the ear of Shen Yan. “Have you prepared some wine for me?”

Shen Yan smiled and said, “Yes, everything is ready!”

Mr. Huang said, “Ha-ha! You are always the most sensible boy!”

Xia Yu kept smiling and watching them talking as if there were no other people aside.

Mr. Huang was a pleasant person. He said, “Shall we set off?”

Shen Yan took over the luggage from Mr. Huang’s hand and said, “The car is outside. This way, please!”

Mr. Huang couldn’t wait to turn around and saw Xia Yu who had been following Shen Yan all the way. It seemed that he just noticed her and said, “Who is this?”

Shen Yan smiled and said, “My fiancée!”

Mr. Huang deliberately glanced at Xia Yu with his face showing a very secret and profound smile. “Fiancée! Ah! Good, good!” After that, he left himself and walked forward.

Xia Yu was just going to greet him while he just walked away from her casually like this. How embarrassing it was! Xia Yu was stunned for a while and stood still in situ, looking at Mr. Huang’s back stiffly. She was guessing who he was on earth.

“Come on!” Shen Yan turned around and said.

They seemed to have an important thing. She was afraid that it was related to the Headquarters, so it was not appropriate for her to go along. Xia Yu still held the folder in her arms and said, “I will not go with you!”

She had already thought about it, and it was very convenient to take a taxi directly to go back from the airport. But Shen Yan narrowed his eyebrows and said, “If you don’t go with me, who will drive me when I am drunk after a while?”

So, she was his full-time diver!

On the way back from the airport, Shen Yan was driving, and Mr. Huang was sitting in the back seat. Xia Yu was sitting in the co-pilot. The old man had a lot of words, and he was having an amicable chat with Shen Yan. As for Xia Yu, she only needed to be quiet like a small piece.

The car was driven away from the airport for more than an hour, and they came to a remote place. Finally, it stopped at the door of a two-story residential building in the suburbs.

“We’re here.”

Someone in the house immediately came out to open the door for Mr. Huang and carry his luggage.

Xia Yu got out of the car by herself and roughly took note of the surrounding environment by moonlight. The small building had white walls and black tiles, and there was a small field at the door, surrounded by a fence.

Shen Yan led Mr. Huang in. It was a courtyard with a patio inside. The yard was not large. There was a large shelf made of bamboos. The shelf was surrounded by many green leaves, but whether there were vegetables and fruit or some flowers could not be differentiated for the obscure night. Under the shelf was a stone table with a stone chair, and there was a well in the corner not far away.

Across the yard, there was the main hall, where there were some old but well-painted square tables and old-fashioned wooden armchairs. On the wall hung a large ink painting. All the decoration and ornaments were a bit like the style of an old-fashioned house, but the light and the view were very good. If you sat in the chair, you could be able to see the moon hanging over the yard.

Shen Yan roughly introduced the situation of the house to Mr. Huang and said, “The house is cleaned up by someone contingently, and I have no idea whether you are satisfied.”

Mr. Huang walked around the hall and finally fixed his eyes on the ink painting.

“Little Shen, it’s very nice.”

Shen Yan smiled and said, “Not at all, Mr. Huang. Since you are willing to come over, it is the least I can do.”

After that, he asked the servers in the house to come out. He knew that Mr. Huang preferred tranquility, so he only arranged a driver and an aunt. The driver was responsible for driving the car and the procurement. The aunt was responsible for cooking and other household chores.

“Since time is in such a hurry, there may be something not considerate enough. Please just settle down first. If you are not satisfied, please tell me at any time!” Shen Yan was full of patience. Xia Yu looked aside and frowned constantly. Why had he never shown such a gentle and meticulous side?

Then they went to have dinner in another restaurant where a large glass window faced right towards the yard, and the dishes were also very refreshing, mainly vegetables, yam, crown daisy, steamed egg, plus some fish soup, and two kinds of wild vegetables.

The three people were sitting around the table. In fact, Xia Yu was completely unwilling to sit down, but Mr. Huang dragged her to be together, so she could only company them. She rarely had any food and only sat there quietly. On the other side, Shen Yan and Mr. Huang were chatting hilariously and drank a lot of wine.

It took only more than one hour for them to finish two bottles of crusted Maotai with high alcoholic content.

Xia Yu was stunned when seeing this. No one would drink like this, but anyway, Mr. Huang was so happy that he even poured a cup for Xia Yu and asked her to drink then. Xia Yu could not drink it and refused, waving her hand.

The old man seemed to be a little unhappy.

“Why? You want to make me lose face the first time we sit here together for drinking, right?”

Xia Yu was speechless, but fortunately, Shen Yan on the opposite side took the cup for her in time. “She can’t drink. Besides, if she drinks it, I can’t go back home later.”

“You have a driver!” Mr. Huang would not give in and said.

Shen Yan smiled modestly and said, “She really can’t drink, and I will drink it for her!” After saying that, he tossed off.

It seemed that Mr. Huang became more excited, so he filled up Shen Yan’s cup again. “What? Are you protecting her?”

“No, I just let her follow to be a driver for me!”

“You are now henpecked even before getting married?”

Xia Yu suddenly felt a little breathless.

Shen Yan’s countenance did not change, but he only reached out his hand to put on the back of the hand of Xia Yu on the table. Xia Yu wanted to hold back her hand subconsciously, but only to be grasped firmly by him.

“Mr. Huang, what a funny joke!”

The old man burst into laughter when seeing it and said, pointing to him, “You rascal!”

Xia Yu felt that her sweat was going to come down.

Shen Yan still had his face unchanged.

“So, please let her go because she can’t drink indeed!” While talking, he gently rubbed the fingers of Xia Yu, with the palm of his hand heated by alcohol. Xia Yu was like sitting on thorns, but she could not do anything on the spot.

Mr. Huang stared at Xia Yu for a while and then said, “OK, you drink for her! At least, three cups!”

Xia Yu’s heart trembled, and she even curled up her fingers. She wanted to speak, but Shen Yan pressed her wrist tightly.

“No problem, as long as Mr. Huang requires!” Then he finished the cup of wine in front of him after picking it up with one hand and then continued to drink up another two cups.

Xia Yu’s hand was trembling in his palm, so he rubbed it twice calmly and quietly and said, “Go outside and wait first. We have something important to talk about.”

She let out a breath of relief implicitly and immediately stood up to leave.

There was no one in the house where the wind was light, and the mood was bright. Then Xia Yu sat down under the bamboo frame. Some branches were hanging over the top of her head, and some scattered starlight passed through the cracks of the branches and leaves. Her nose was full of the smell of wet soil and plants.

She liked such a quiet place very much, which made her feel peaceful. She knew that it must be arranged in accordance with the preference of Mr. Huang. It could be said that the work was done with so much consideration.

She turned around and looked at the man. Through a glass window, Shen Yan was talking in the restaurant with Mr. Huang. His position was just facing Xia Yu. They should be talking about business, so he frowned sometimes and stretched sometimes. In good time, he smiled with one corner of his mouth upward.

The indoor lighting was very bright. In front of Shen Yan, there were bright wine bottles and cups. He probably drank too much. His cheeks were a little red, but his skin was not white, so it didn’t look obvious. He was still wearing a blue shirt but had changed into another style which was not so formal. Two buttons on the neckline were untied, and his sleeves were rolled up at will. The smooth arm line was visible when the wine glass was picked up.

Xia Yu thought of the touch when he held her fingers just now for no reason, and the palm of his hand was hot and dry. Such an action unexpectedly gave her a sense of stability on that occasion.

Seeing them lift their cups from time to time, Xia Yu’s eyes were fixed on the two dishes of wild vegetables just now. The taste was very good, so it should be very good to use them as vegetarian dishes.

The meal lasted more than two hours. Xia Yu almost fell asleep sitting under the shelf after midnight when there was a noise at the gate of the hall.

“No need to send me. Have your rest early!”

As Shen Yan’s voice came out, Xia Yu immediately stood up and saw that he had already walked out of the hall. Mr. Huang probably drank too much, so he was helped by the driver to stand in the hall. Shen Yan waved his hand at him again and then turned around. When he turned around, his smile on the face diminished completely, and he glanced at Xia Yu standing under the cane.

“Go and drive the car!”

The key had already been given to her in advance. Xia Yu immediately went out to the car which was stopped outside. She just went into the car and didn’t react when Shen Yan opened the door himself and sat on the copilot. As soon as he got into the car, he leaned back in the chair like a boss. He uttered a sigh and kept silent then. But he turned back as it was so quiet beside him after waiting for a while.

“Why not set off?”

“I have two hangover pills here.” Xia Yu extended her hand with two pills inside.

Shen Yan held her hand to come close to his mouth and took the pills. The car started, and the man in the front suddenly surrounded and hugged her, with his arms wrapped around her waist.

Xia Yu subconsciously leaned back and said, “What are you doing?” She quickly felt that the chair under her butt began to lift up after uttering those words, and the back was bulging forward. Soon, the seat was adjusted to the best vision.

Xia Yu was a little embarrassed, feeling that she was too nervous. Shen Yan just wanted to help her adjust the seat. She was just about to say thank you after opening her mouth when the man suddenly leaned towards her sideways and stuck her lips with his own lips while Xia Yu just relaxed and was not on the alert.

Xia Yu did not expect such a sudden intimacy. And she did not dare to let loose her foot on the brake. She could only tolerate the smell of wine and cigarettes emitted from Shen Yan’s mouth, and he kissed her for one minute. Only when his palm sweated did Shen Yan let loose her. He slightly straightened his body to give a gentle pinch to Xia Yu’s earlobe.

“Shen Yan, don’t be silly!” Xia Yu was so speechless since he lost his mind once he drank.

“Fasten your seat belt and then drive the car!” Shen Yan’s tone was hot and humid, and Xia Yu really wanted to swear at that time!

What the hell was that?

But Shen Yan had already got up and turned back to the leather chair aside. He closed his eyes and gasped.

Xia Yu was so angry that she even loosened the brake and stepped on the accelerator pedal. The 12-cylinder horsepower brought out a huge force, just generating a roar in the wilderness. Shen Yan was swayed so badly almost to vomit. What was the woman angry about?

“Hey, Mrs. Shen, do you want to murder your husband?” Shen Yan opened his eyes and stared at Xia Yu.

“I haven’t married you yet, so I’m not Mrs. Shen. You can rest assured. Even if you had an accident today, I would not be a widow.” Xia Yu simply ignored him and drove the car at the original speed.
