Chapter 55: A Big Romantic

Gao Ye walked over to him.

He said sarcastically, “You’re trying to get a hot face slapped with a cold ass, aren’t you?”

Yu Nanzheng glanced at him.

“It’s none of your business! I’m happy to do it!”

Gao Ye said impatiently, “Nanzheng, you’re the biggest romantic I’ve ever seen. You do everything for Jian Hongyou, and the key is, you still don’t get a response from her.”

“Who said that? She’s my wife now, and I even kissed her.”

“So what if you kissed her? She doesn’t even acknowledge it.”

Yu Nanzheng was annoyed, his heart hit by the truth.

“Gao Ye, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?”

Gao Ye pursed his lips, “As a good brother, I’m reminding you, don’t get too deep.”

Yu Nanzheng looked at him coldly.

“Whose fault is it that my wife still hasn’t fallen for me?”

Gao Ye was baffled, “Why are you looking at me like that? You can’t chase her, is it my fault? What does it have to do with me?”

“Heh, who said that if you want a girl to like you, you should just tease her?”

Gao Ye was completely clueless, he didn’t remember saying that.

But seeing Yu Nanzheng’s gloomy gaze, full of resentment, he asked, “Did I say that?”

“If not you, then who?”

Gao Ye was stunned.

It was too long ago, he couldn’t remember at all.

“Even if I said that, what does it have to do with you not being able to chase Jian Hongyou?”

“How is it not related? I listened to your words, I tried my best to tease Jian Hongyou, and then she successfully disliked me. If I used a different method, maybe I would have already chased her.”

Gao Ye scratched his nose.

“Who knew the person you liked was Jian Hongyou? I didn’t know you could interpret teasing in that way.”

Gao Ye only found out that Yu Nanzheng liked Jian Hongyou after they graduated from high school.

In high school, he was puzzled why Yu Nanzheng always went against Jian Hongyou, and even when he was beaten, he didn’t get angry.

It turned out this guy secretly liked her.

Gao Ye felt like he couldn’t take the blame for this.

Yu Nanzheng was furious.

Gao Ye whispered, “You didn’t really tease her, Jian Hongyou probably doesn’t even remember you. At least she remembers you because she dislikes you. You should thank me.”

Yu Nanzheng walked to the side with a black face.

Gao Ye looked at Jian Hongyou in the distance, who was scolding Tang Zazan with a look of disappointment.

He shook his head and smiled.

Tang Zazan wasn’t listening to what Jian Hongyou was saying at all.

Her eyes were on Gao Ye.

Jian Hongyou felt a pain in her chest.

“Tang Zazan, don’t go after Gao Ye, that guy is a playboy, he clearly doesn’t take relationships seriously, don’t be fooled by him.”

Tang Zazan didn’t care, “What could he possibly fool me about?”

Then she mumbled softly, “Even if he fools me, I’m happy to be fooled by him.”

“What?”

She spoke so softly that Jian Hongyou didn’t hear clearly.

Tang Zazan stuck out her tongue, “Nothing.”

She didn’t want to be nagged by Jian Hongyou, so she went to sit with Xiaoshui and eat.

Seeing that she didn’t go to Gao Ye, Jian Hongyou didn’t bother her anymore.

The ship sailed far out to sea.

Jian Hongyou saw a dolphin jump out of the water and exclaimed excitedly, “Dolphin!”

Tang Zazan and Xiaoshui: “Where? Where?”

“Over there!”

“Wow! So cute!”

The three girls huddled together, excitedly squealing.

Yu Nanzheng watched with amusement.

This was the first time he saw Jian Hongyou being so childish.

She usually gave off a big sister image, fierce and bossy.

Gao Ye took out a cigarette and offered it to him.

Yu Nanzheng shook his head and refused.

Gao Ye raised an eyebrow, “Why? Trying to maintain a good image in front of your wife?”

“Yes, I’m afraid she’ll find me smelly. I’ll quit smoking later, don’t give me any more. Also, stay away from me when you smoke.”

Gao Ye looked up at the sky, speechless.

He lit the cigarette and put it in his mouth, walking to the other side of the deck to smoke.

They stayed at sea until dusk before returning.

Gao Ye didn’t stay at the same hotel as them, he left as soon as they got off the ship.

Back at the hotel downstairs, Tang Zazan and Xiaoshui disappeared without a trace.

Jian Hongyou realized it only when she and Yu Nanzheng were left.

Yu Nanzheng said, “I’ll take you to dinner.”

Jian Hongyou was indeed hungry and nodded.

They got back in the car, Yu Nanzheng drove her to a high-end French restaurant, the environment was elegant and not crowded.

Jian Hongyou took off her mask and hat.

No one would take random pictures in this kind of place.

She could relax and have a meal.

They sat by the window, the restaurant was in a high-rise building in the city center, they could see the dazzling lights of the city center.

Jian Hongyou had a small appetite and was full quickly.

She took out her phone and browsed the news.

The news about her beating someone up had subsided, and netizens were mostly on her side.

She logged into her Weibo account and was surprised to find that she had gained 500,000 followers.

She only had 200,000 followers before.

The likes and comments on Yu Nanzheng’s comment had increased again.

Many comments were urging them to “feed us sugar.”

It was clear that these were all their CP fans.

Yu Nanzheng put down his knife and fork, elegantly picking up a napkin to wipe his mouth.

“I’m leaving soon.”

“Huh?”

Jian Hongyou had been focused on her phone and didn’t hear what Yu Nanzheng said.

“What did you say?”

Yu Nanzheng’s brown eyes held a hint of emotion, “I said I’m leaving soon.”

“Where to?”

“Haishi.”

“Oh.”

Jian Hongyou continued to look at her phone.

Yu Nanzheng gnashed his teeth, he was not happy.

“Don’t you miss me at all?”

Jian Hongyou looked up, “Why should I miss you? We’ll see each other in a couple of days when we’re back in Beijing.”

“You’re going to see me off.”

“Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

“Why not?”

“My status, if I’m recognized, it will expose your whereabouts.”

“I’m not afraid.”

“What if someone wants to shoot you? You’re so rich.”

Yu Nanzheng drew a black line, “Jian Hongyou, is this how you curse your own husband?”

“It’s blunt but true, I’m just thinking for you.”

“You just don’t want to see me off, you’re making excuses for yourself. You heartless person, I’m so good to you, I always protect you. It’s so difficult for you to see me off for a little while.”

Jian Hongyou helplessly put away her phone.

“Alright, I’ll see you off, alright? You’re like a child, so fussy.”

Yu Nanzheng smiled contentedly, stood up and took her hand, leading her out.

Jian Hongyou struggled.

Yu Nanzheng reminded her, “Don’t move, someone is taking pictures, if they catch you and me going our separate ways, they’ll think we’re not getting along as a couple, they’ll say you’re going to be kicked out of the house or something.”

Jian Hongyou stopped struggling, she still wanted to rely on Yu Nanzheng to make it in the entertainment industry.

It’s good to have a big tree to lean on, with Yu Nanzheng as this big tree, her resources would only get better.

The two of them walked out of the restaurant, hand in hand.

Soon, their hand-holding photo was indeed taken and posted online.

It instantly attracted a large wave of CP fans to watch.

Back at the hotel, Jian Hongyou followed Yu Nanzheng upstairs to get his luggage.

When they came down, there were two more people in the car.

A driver and Yu Nanzheng’s assistant, Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying got out of the car and opened the door for them.

Jian Hongyou said, “Thank you.”

Zhou Ying smiled.

Yu Nanzheng reached out and grabbed Jian Hongyou’s hand.

Jian Hongyou shook him off.

“There’s no one else here.”

“How can there not be? Aren’t they?”

Yu Nanzheng nodded towards the two people in the front seat.

Then he forcefully pulled Jian Hongyou’s hand into his.

“Wife, I don’t want to let you go.”
