Chapter 21: Wife, I’m Sorry, I’m Late

“It’s okay, I have plenty of money. I don’t need a woman to treat me to dinner. Just keep me company.”

“Is that okay?”

Jian Hongyou smiled, her lips pursed.

Yu Nanzheng nodded.

“Tomorrow afternoon at 6pm, at the Flower Hotel.”

“Okay.”

Jian Hongyou released him and returned to the room across the hall.

The air still lingered with the scent of Jian Hongyou.

Yu Nanzheng inhaled it greedily.

It wasn’t perfume, it was the natural scent of Jian Hongyou, a faint, sweet fragrance, very pleasant.

The next day, Jian Hongyou received a call from Wang Jie, informing her that she had landed the role in the period drama.

Wang Jie was very excited.

She hadn’t expected Jian Hongyou to land a lead role so soon after joining Fengxing.

She had heard about the show, but the female lead had been undecided. There were rumors that the role would go to Fengxing’s leading actress, Zhuang Xiaohui, but Fengxing had not confirmed it.

Unexpectedly, the role went to Jian Hongyou.

This was a big surprise!

There wasn’t much for Jian Hongyou to do at the moment, everything was handled by Wang Jie.

Jian Hongyou could relax for a couple of days before going to the company for her costume fitting.

Jian Hongyou didn’t go out, she stayed at Tanxiyuan No. 1, spending her time communicating with Wang Jie about the show and exercising at the gym.

She wanted to present herself in the best possible condition to the public.

In the afternoon, Jian Hongyou took a shower, changed into a new outfit, and put on exquisite makeup.

She went to the enormous walk-in closet on the second floor and picked out a black Hermes bag.

Jian Hongyou realized that the walk-in closet in this room was the largest on the entire second floor, almost twice the size of the other rooms.

Moreover, the walk-in closet was designed by area.

After Yu Nanzheng bought those bags and they were delivered, the maids arranged them in a designated area.

The remaining areas were specifically for clothes, shoes, and jewelry.

Jian Hongyou hadn’t paid much attention at first, but later she accidentally went into another room and noticed the difference. She went back to check Yu Nanzheng’s room, but his walk-in closet wasn’t as big as this one.

She seemed to have accidentally chosen the master bedroom.

Jian Hongyou’s red Ferrari was parked at the entrance of the Fanghua Hotel, and an attendant came forward to take the car keys from her to park the car.

She walked into the hotel and slowly removed her sunglasses.

Some diners recognized her and whispered among themselves: “Isn’t that Jian Hongyou? She’s actually here for dinner? I heard her family went bankrupt and she owes a lot of money. How can she afford to come here? The average spending at the Fanghua Hotel is 10,000 yuan per person.”

“Heh, I heard she’s got a sugar daddy. As long as the sugar daddy has money, it’s fine.”

“I used to like her, but I didn’t expect her to fall to this level. Knowing that he’s married and still being with him, it’s kind of disgusting.”

How many unmarried old men are there? They all have red flags at home and flying flags outside.

Jian Hongyou looked at the few socialites, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, “You’re disappointed. My man is not old at all.”

The socialites were caught red-handed gossiping about her and exposed.

They coughed awkwardly and lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jian Hongyou.

Jian Hongyou scanned the room and chose a window seat.

She had beautiful features, a noble temperament, and a beauty that was very aggressive.

As she sat down, she immediately attracted the attention of the men around her.

Jian Hongyou looked out the window indifferently, exuding an aura of “keep out.”

“Senior?”

Jian Hongyou turned her head and saw Lin Yushan standing with Guan Huai not far away.

Lin Yushan pretended to be surprised, “Senior, it’s really you! I thought I was mistaken. Senior, are you alone? Or are you meeting with some big boss?”

Lin Yushan’s words were pointed.

The internet was full of rumors that Jian Hongyou had a sugar daddy, and she was trying to confirm it.

Guan Huai looked at Jian Hongyou intently, as if he was also waiting for her answer.

“Wife, have you been waiting long?”

A magnetic voice came from behind them.

Guan Huai and Lin Yushan subconsciously turned their heads, their eyes met Yu Nanzheng’s handsome and breathtaking face, and then his aggressive figure.

Lin Yushan’s eyes widened.

There was actually such a high-quality man in the world.

Yu Nanzheng didn’t give them a glance, he walked directly to the seat opposite Jian Hongyou and sat down.

“Wife, I’m sorry, I’m late.”

His tone was affectionate and gentle.

Jian Hongyou was stunned for two seconds before she reacted to Yu Nanzheng’s intention.

She said in a coquettish tone, “Husband, you’re so late, everyone thinks you’re a bald old man.”

“Who?”

When Yu Nanzheng said this, his voice lowered several degrees, giving people a chilling feeling.

The few socialites lowered their heads even further.

Yu Nanzheng turned his gaze to Guan Huai and Lin Yushan, who were standing awkwardly.

Guan Huai was stunned, a little dazed.

This man was the husband Jian Hongyou mentioned?

How was that possible?

Jian Hongyou must have hired someone to play the role with her.

Guan Huai didn’t believe that Jian Hongyou was actually married.

That’s right, the man on the phone the other day, wasn’t it this man?

The voice sounded very similar.

Guan Huai felt a sense of crisis, but he didn’t want to admit that Jian Hongyou was really married.

Jian Hongyou liked him, how could she accept someone else in such a short time?

Guan Huai looked at the two of them with suspicion.

Lin Yushan was still feeling a little giddy a second ago, but the next second she learned that the man called Jian Hongyou “wife.”

She was filled with jealousy.

She was also shocked.

“Senior, are you married?”

Jian Hongyou smiled brightly, “Yes, let me introduce you, my husband, Yu Nanzheng.”

Last name Yu?

Could it be the top-tier family in Beijing, the Yu family?

It was said that the Yu family had only one son for three generations, the only heir, and he was known as the “Prince of Beijing” in the upper circles. He had recently returned to China.

After returning, he immediately took over the Hengsheng Group, becoming the new head of the Yu family.

Looking at the man in front of her, he was about the same age as the rumored Yu family heir.

But how could Jian Hongyou marry the Yu family heir?

Impossible!

Lin Yushan didn’t believe that Jian Hongyou would have such good luck.

This man couldn’t be the “Prince of Beijing”!

Guan Huai’s eyes were burning.

“Jian Hongyou, where did you find this guy? If your fake marriage is exposed, it won’t be good for you, you might be banned by the entire circle.”

Yu Nanzheng leaned back in his chair, looking lazy, but his gaze towards Guan Huai was filled with disdain.

“Who told you we’re fake married? Get out, don’t interrupt my dinner with my wife.”

“You! Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that!”

“I don’t care who you are, get out with your woman, her two eyes are almost glued to me, I’m disgusted.”

Lin Yushan was so ashamed and angry that her face turned pale.

She pulled Guan Huai, “Guan Huai, let’s go.”

Guan Huai looked at Jian Hongyou unwillingly, Jian Hongyou was resting her chin on her hand, smiling and waving at them.

The smile made Guan Huai feel irritated.

After they left, Jian Hongyou said, “Yu Nanzheng, you’re really loyal, thank you!”

Yu Nanzheng said lazily, “You owe me another favor.”

“Yes, yes, I remember.”

Yu Nanzheng pursed his lips, feeling that Jian Hongyou was giving him empty promises.
