Chapter 291: Chapter 291 How to Bring a Stranger Over
The rational Qin Yanyang didn’t get angry with Yang Fei.
She suppressed the grievances in her heart and looked at Yang Fei, saying, "I will use my connections to help you look for Li Xuanyu. Don’t worry too much, as long as her body hasn’t been found, it means she’s still okay. Good people are protected by providence."
Hearing these words, Yang Fei felt much more at ease and nodded, saying, "Mm, thank you."
"I’m your wife. There’s no need for such formality between us," Qin Yanyang said.
Yang Fei looked up at her and saw the sincerity and concern in her gaze. Feeling warmth in his heart, he said with emotion, "Thank you, I... just now I was too worried about Li Xuanyu, so my attitude wasn’t good. I’m sorry."
Qin Yanyang smiled slightly, "Mm, I know, that’s why I wasn’t angry."
Yang Fei looked at her, his eyes full of guilt and gratitude.
The guilt stemmed from the fact that he had spent a lot of time with Tong Yunshu these past few days and had, without reason, blamed Qin Yanyang for not providing information about Li Xuanyu in a timely manner because he was worried.
But Qin Yanyang had been genuinely devoted to him.
In everything she did, she treated him as her closest person, yet he had hurt her.
Feeling guilty, he temporarily pushed aside his concern for Li Xuanyu.
Just as Qin Yanyang had said, as long as Li Xuanyu’s body isn’t found, there’s a chance she is alive.
With Li Xuanyu’s capabilities, it wouldn’t be so easy for her to die.
Feeling relieved, Yang Fei’s mood also improved a lot. He moved closer and took Qin Yanyang’s soft hand, saying, "Wife, I was not in a good state just now and I was in a terrible mood, which made you feel wronged. I am reflecting on this and will never do it again."
Although Qin Yanyang felt a little wronged, Yang Fei’s continuous apologies eased her anger. Besides, she was, after all, a rational person and understood Yang Fei’s earlier mood, so she hadn’t taken it to heart, and said with a smile, "I’ve told you it’s fine, don’t keep fussing over it."
"Generous!"
Yang Fei praised and couldn’t help but lean in to kiss her on the cheek.
Qin Yanyang dodged slightly but didn’t manage to avoid him, letting him be presumptuous for a moment.
"Hungry? Let’s eat first," said Yang Fei, pulling her to the dining table and sitting down. He then enthusiastically served her rice and dished out food for her.
After dinner, Yang Fei thought about it and said to Qin Yanyang, "I need to go look for her. Can you understand, wife?"
Qin Yanyang replied, "If her phone is unreachable, looking for her would be like searching for a needle in the ocean. And if you two are really that close, if she were alive, I believe upon hearing your words, she would definitely contact you, or even come back to Binhai to seek you out. I think it’s better to wait here for her than to go looking for her."
Yang Fei pondered for a moment and nodded, "Mm, you’re right. I’m too anxious. With her abilities, she shouldn’t be in trouble so easily. She will contact me sooner or later."
At eleven o’clock that night, Yang Fei received a text message on his phone.
It was a message from an unknown number: Safe, don’t worry!
Seeing those four words, Yang Fei immediately felt relieved.
Qin Yanyang hadn’t gone to sleep yet. The couple were practicing their exercises. Seeing Yang Fei relax after reading the message, she knew what was going on and asked, "Did she contact you?"
Yang Fei nodded, "Mm, she said she’s fine and nothing’s wrong."
He even showed Qin Yanyang the text message.
After a glance, Qin Yanyang smiled and said, "You’re not worried anymore, are you?"
Yang Fei grinned, "Not worried anymore, let’s continue."
Qin Yanyang snorted, her expression darkening as she grabbed the sheet and wrapped herself up to lie on the bed. "Not continuing, going to sleep."
Yang Fei was taken aback and then understood that she was angry.
He quickly moved to hold her and said, "Wife, are you angry? You said it was okay earlier, why are you angry now?"
Qin Yanyang snorted and ignored him.
Being rational and generous was her character and nature.
But having her husband show such concern for another woman right in front of her, even though he insisted it was friendship and not love, as his wife, she still felt uncomfortable deep inside.
I can understand you and comfort you with rational generosity, but I also need to vent the small grievances within my heart.
We are all first-time humans; who doesn’t have a temper?
So Yang Fei spent most of the night cajoling her with a combination of gentle persuasion and persistence.
It was his thick skin and relentless pursuit that made the real difference, and most importantly, Qin Yanyang, despite having a little grievance in her heart, wasn’t really angry with him. Otherwise, Yang Fei wouldn’t even have been allowed into her bedroom tonight, let alone have the chance to coax her.
The next morning, at around eight o’clock, Qin Yanyang emerged from the room with a flushed face and went to the washroom.
She couldn’t help but regret pretending to be angry at Yang Fei yesterday.
This guy was simply shameless.
He almost succeeded in his ruse.
Thinking about what he had done to her, her heartbeat quickened, and her face flushed with embarrassment.
What a scoundrel.
Pah!
Yang Fei got out of bed humming a tune, full of vigor and in high spirits.
’Blessing in disguise, indeed!’
He now wished Qin Yanyang would lose her temper at him a few more times, so he could try to push her limits when he placated her.
He’d win her over sooner or later.
Win her over?
Uh, Yang Fei extended his hand in front of his eyes.
If taken literally, he had already won, hadn’t he?
Qin Yanyang happened to come out from the bathroom, saw Yang Fei staring blankly at his right hand, and her face instantly turned crimson to the tips of her ears. She grabbed a pillow and hurled it at him, "I’m hungry, go make breakfast already."
Yang Fei caught the pillow and saw her running out of the room with a red face, he couldn’t help but chuckle.
Just after finishing breakfast, Sun Weimin called.
Yang Fei had already told Qin Yanyang in advance about accompanying Sun Weimin and his wife to the Tang Family, so he couldn’t spend this weekend with Qin Yanyang.
Qin Yanyang had already made plans with Yang Wen to visit some scenic spots for two days, so she didn’t need Yang Fei’s company.
Soon, Sun Weimin and his wife arrived at the villa in their car.
They had long known Yang Fei lived in the Binjiang Garden Villa District but had never visited before.
Having heard Sun Lei boast about his teacher’s wife being extremely beautiful, Sun Weimin and Tang Qian just laughed it off.
What does a child know about beauty?
At this moment, seeing the woman Yang Fei was holding hands with, both Sun Weimin and Tang Qian were stunned by Qin Yanyang’s beauty.
Especially Sun Weimin, as someone in a high position, he had seen countless beautiful women, but it was his first time encountering someone with such exceptional looks and demeanor as Qin Yanyang.
Upon meeting their own secretary, Qin Yanyang was even more casual than Yang Fei, to the point where Sun Weimin found it absurd that he felt an inexplicable pressure in her presence, as if he were somehow inferior.
Tang Qian was very outgoing. After a brief shock from Qin Yanyang’s beauty and aura, she immediately walked over with a smile and extended her hand, saying, "I’ve always heard Leilei talk about how beautiful and charming his teacher’s wife is, and I wasn’t convinced, but now that I see you, I realize just how badly I’ve lost."
Qin Yanyang smiled and shook hands with her, "Sister Qian, you’re too kind."
Sun Lei proudly said on the side, "Teacher’s wife, when I said you were beautiful, my mom wouldn’t believe it; she said she’s the prettier one."
Tang Qian playfully scolded, "You little scamp, how dare you sell out your own mother."
Their laughter filled the air.
Tang Qian and Qin Yanyang chatted for a while holding hands, exchanged contact information, and agreed to have a meal together once they were back.
At one in the afternoon, the four of them got off the plane and saw a young man in his twenties waiting at the exit with a sign.
Tang Qian walked over quickly and said with a smile, "Tang Yao?"
The young man hurriedly replied, "Yes, are you my auntie?"
With excitement, Tang Qian sized him up and nodded, "Yeah, I’m your auntie, Tang Qian. I didn’t expect my brother’s child to be all grown up; I... I..."
Tang Yao gave a slight smile and said, "The family has added quite a few members that my auntie doesn’t know about yet."
Tang Qian felt a thorn explode in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes almost immediately.
Sun Weimin, feeling sympathy for his wife, went over to support her shoulder and said to Tang Yao, "Let’s go, we can talk more at home."
Tang Yao gave Sun Weimin a glance, snorted without greeting him, as if holding some grudge.
Sun Weimin was so angry he could barely contain himself.
Tang Yao’s gaze then fell upon Yang Fei, frowning he asked, "Who is this guy, and why did you bring a stranger along?"
