Chapter 100: Husband, Stay Home Obediently  

Lu Yi placed the freshly fried egg onto a prepared plate. Hearing some movement, he turned around and saw Lin Zhizhi, dressed impeccably. She looked sharp and professional, clearly ready to go somewhere.  

A trace of confusion flickered in Lu Yi’s eyes as he carried the plate toward her. “Are you heading somewhere? Have breakfast before you leave.”  

Lin Zhizhi glanced at the beautifully presented egg on the plate, surprised by Lu Yi’s cooking skills. She checked the time and nodded before walking toward the dining table with him.  

“I have to attend a groundbreaking ceremony later. It was scheduled in advance.”  

After placing the fried egg in front of Lin Zhizhi, Lu Yi set a fork beside her hand. “Eat the egg first. There’s more breakfast in the kitchen—I’ll bring it out.”  

Lu Yi quickly brought out a bowl of plain rice porridge, another bowl of lean meat porridge, and several slices of whole wheat bread.  

The porridge had been freshly cooked not long ago. Knowing that Lin Zhizhi had stayed up late the previous night, Lu Yi had wanted her to sleep in. However, skipping breakfast wasn’t an option, so he had planned to wake her up in about half an hour, let her eat, and then send her back to sleep.  

Because of that, he had kept the prepared breakfast warm in the kitchen. But to his surprise, Lin Zhizhi had woken up early on her own.  

Lu Yi placed a warmed glass of milk in front of her and glanced at the table. “See if there’s anything you like. Do you prefer porridge, or would you rather have bread with milk?”  

Lin Zhizhi was already eating the rice porridge with the fried egg. After swallowing a bite, she took a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth before looking up at Lu Yi with a smile. “I like them all. Everything looks delicious. I didn’t expect you to be hiding such skills—turns out I’ve struck gold?”  

Hearing the compliment, Lu Yi raised an eyebrow. He didn’t bother with modesty and accepted it outright, his face full of undisguised joy. “Then you should eat more and savor it properly.”  

Seeing Lu Yi in front of her, openly expressing his emotions with sincerity in his eyes, Lin Zhizhi couldn’t help but smile. She nodded obediently while raising her spoon, playfully declaring, “Alright, Chef, I shall now properly taste your masterpiece.”  

Lu Yi chuckled at her teasing, his smile growing even wider.  

“After you finish eating, I’ll drive you there,” he offered.  

Lin Zhizhi shook her head while eating. “No need. Someone’s coming to pick me up—they should be here soon.”  

Sure enough, just as she finished speaking, her phone rang.  

Lin Zhizhi picked it up and saw that it was Secretary Li calling.  

She answered the call.

“Alright, I’m coming down now. Wait for me downstairs.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhizhi finished the last sip of her porridge and stood up, intending to check her appearance in the bathroom. As she walked, she casually told Lu Yi, “I’m done eating. I’m going to freshen up.”

A moment later, she stepped out of the bathroom and headed for the door. “I’m leaving now!”

Lu Yi followed behind her silently, watching as she prepared to leave.

Lin Zhizhi had just changed into her shoes and was about to bid him farewell again when she noticed Lu Yi staring at her intently. His gaze was so fixed that it made her feel as if she had done something wrong to him.

Look at those eyes, that expression—it was like he was a wronged little child.

Lin Zhizhi’s heart softened. Seeing her husband looking so pitiful, she decisively stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and hooked one hand behind his head. Without hesitation, she pressed her red lips against his thin ones.

Then, with an air of dominance, she let go of the back of his head. Her lips hovered slightly away from his, and she smirked in satisfaction as she admired his handsome face and the faint red mark left on his lips. She leaned in slightly and whispered, “Husband, be good and stay home. I’m off to make money and support you!”

With that, Lin Zhizhi turned around and left, her figure swaying elegantly, leaving behind a breathtakingly seductive silhouette.

As the door closed, Lu Yi stared at the empty space where her beautiful figure had just been. He absentmindedly touched his lips, then suddenly burst into a foolish laugh.

That single “husband” from Lin Zhizhi had acted like some magical stimulant, leaving Lu Yi in an unusually high-spirited and energetic mood for the entire day.

However, contrary to what Lin Zhizhi had instructed, Lu Yi did not obediently stay at home. Instead, he happily left for the company, working diligently.

After all, Lu Yi wanted to earn more money for his wife to spend. And of course, he also had a child to provide for now.

Inside the gossip chat group of Lu Yi’s company, the conversation exploded like never before. In just under a minute, the number of messages had piled up as if a whole building had been constructed from them.

Employee A: “Did President Lu take the wrong medicine today? He actually smiled at me!!! Wait… does that mean I messed up something?!”

Employee B: “He smiled at me too! But I didn’t do anything wrong… right? Unless he found out I was late and left early a few days ago?”

Employee C: “I mean… do you guys think President Lu might be going through something? He’s usually so cold and distant, but today he suddenly smiled. It’s kinda unsettling.”

Employee D: “I don’t think so. He smiled at me too, but it didn’t seem like a sinister smile. More like he’s genuinely in a good mood.”

Employee E: “Agreed! It feels like President Lu is on a whole new level of happiness today.”

Employee F: “+1.”

Employee G: “+1.”
