Chapter 37: Keep It a Secret

He Yucheng stood there in a daze for a long time before his assistant called him back to reality.

After 26 years, he had finally fallen for a woman, only to discover that she already had a man!

He was somewhat distraught and wandered aimlessly to a bar to drown his sorrows.

His assistant cautiously followed behind, offering words of comfort. “Mr. He, don’t be discouraged! There are many good girls out there! Besides, I think you still have a chance with Ms. Sheng! If you put in more effort, maybe you can win her over! Or you could just silently watch over her. Loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean you have to possess them!”

The assistant rattled off a bunch of advice, unsure if his boss had taken any of it in. Sigh!

Meanwhile, Song Qing’an and Sheng Jinchu returned to the Song family estate. Song Qing’an’s face was sour.

Seeing his expression, Sheng Jinchu couldn’t help but chuckle. She touched his cheek and leaned in to kiss his lips, soothing him. “Husband, I didn’t even pay attention to him. Don’t be angry!”

Hearing her call him “husband,” his eyes lit up with joy. He held her close and kissed her passionately on the sofa, ignoring everything else.

Song Bo quickly sent all the servants away.

They kissed with such fervor, both panting heavily. Sheng Jinchu was completely limp, lying on the sofa, letting him take what he wanted.

The man murmured, “Wife, Chuchu, I love you. Do you love me?”

Sheng Jinchu wrapped her arms around his neck. “Husband, I love you too!”

They kissed and confessed their love for each other. Song Qing’an felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment, and Sheng Jinchu was also incredibly happy.

Song Qing’an kissed the little woman, almost losing control. But she was still on her period, so he had to hold back.

Finally, Sheng Jinchu whispered to him, “Husband, I’m hungry! I haven’t eaten anything all day.”

Song Qing’an rubbed her nose playfully and had to call the servants back to prepare dinner.

Sheng Jinchu was treated to a delicious meal by her husband.

After washing up, they went to bed.

He held her close, one hand resting on her waist. He spoke in a husky voice, “Wife, when will it end? This is the fourth day. I’m suffering.”

He finally had some meat to eat, only to have his wife’s period get in the way!

Sheng Jinchu was about to fall asleep when she heard him speak. “Usually about a week.”

She turned over to sleep, but he wouldn’t let her go that easily. He pinned her down and leaned down to kiss her, gently parting her lips to savor her sweetness.

Sheng Jinchu couldn’t sleep anymore. She wrapped her arm around his neck and responded to his kisses passionately.

She loved the way Song Qing’an kissed her.

He took her hand and pulled it towards his lower body…

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The crescent moon in the sky was occasionally obscured by clouds, then shone through with faint light, illuminating the intertwined bodies of the man and woman on the bed.

Finally, Sheng Jinchu fell into a deep sleep, exhausted. Seeing that she was truly tired, the man finally released her.

The next day.

Sheng Jinchu woke up early.

She had a few scenes to reshoot today. She sat up and heard the sound of water running in the bathroom, indicating that the man was still showering.

She got up and got dressed. When the man came out of the bathroom, he saw she was awake and asked, “Chuchu, why are you up? Don’t you want to sleep a little longer?”

Sheng Jinchu was applying skincare. Hearing his question, she replied, “I have a few scenes to reshoot today. I’ll go shoot them and come back.”

He heard that she was going to shoot again and, without showing his emotions, took out his phone and sent a message to Lu Xuyang, “Meeting postponed.”

He walked into the bathroom and put his arms around her waist from behind. “I’ll go with you today.”

Sheng Jinchu was confused. “Aren’t you busy with work today?”

He replied, “Work isn’t as important as you.”

They got ready, had breakfast, and then set off with a few people.

Sheng Jinchu got out of the car and went straight to the studio.

Thinking about how he had pulled her into a kiss in the car, her heart raced.

Li Jiameng got out of the nanny car and followed her, looking at her flushed lips and teasing her, “Chuchu, what kind of lipstick are you wearing? It looks weird. And why is it chapped?”

Sheng Jinchu glared at her angrily. “Li Jiameng, can you keep your voice down? There are people around!”

That man had kissed her fiercely in the car and even bitten her lips, leaving them chapped! She was so annoyed! She had to shoot an ad later!

That stinky man!

Han Bing and Leng Feng exchanged a silent look. They both knew that the man was asserting his dominance, just in case someone else got any ideas!

He Yucheng had arrived early and was waiting for Sheng Jinchu.

He Yucheng wanted to come and watch her today. Sheng Jinchu wasn’t surprised to see him and greeted him casually, “Good morning, Mr. He.”

“Ms. Sheng, here’s some breakfast prepared by the company. Have some before you work.”

Sheng Jinchu smiled at him. “I already ate at home. I need to finish shooting early and then go to Shenzhen for filming!” She finished speaking and went to get her makeup done.

He Yucheng felt that Sheng Jinchu was even more beautiful today than usual. He had never seen a woman so beautiful! Unfortunately, she belonged to someone else! He didn’t ask for anything, just a place as her friend.

What could he do about it? He could see how much the man from yesterday cared for her, just by his attitude. Even if he liked her, his good upbringing wouldn’t allow him to steal someone else’s love!

Sheng Jinchu walked into the makeup room. The makeup artist today was a beautiful woman. When she saw Sheng Jinchu, her eyes lit up with amazement. She was a fan who had switched from Wang Qi Wen to Sheng Jinchu. She hadn’t been happy about being assigned to do makeup for a minor celebrity, but it turned out to be Sheng Jinchu!

Seeing her idol, she felt a little shy. She was even more careful and meticulous when applying makeup. She noticed that Sheng Jinchu’s lip color was beautiful and asked, “Ms. Sheng, your lip color is so beautiful! It looks so pink and plump. What lipstick shade are you wearing? I want to buy some too!”

Sheng Jinchu blushed. “This shade was given to me by a friend.”

The makeup artist said, “Ms. Sheng, I’m your fan. Can you sign an autograph for me? To be honest, I used to be a fan of Wang Qi Wen, but after what happened to her, I realized the truth about her. We were all mistaken about you before!”

Sheng Jinchu didn’t expect the makeup artist to be her fan. She readily agreed to sign an autograph.

The makeup artist was overjoyed, her eyes sparkling with excitement!

After signing the autograph, Sheng Jinchu went to shoot the ad!

An hour later, the photographer was finally satisfied with the reshoot and called it a day.

They packed up their things and prepared to leave. At that moment, He Yucheng came over and said, “Ms. Sheng, let’s go together? My car is outside.”

They all walked out together.

The man in the car had just finished reading a file. He looked out the window and saw his wife and the man from yesterday walking ahead, chatting and laughing!

He Yucheng watched Sheng Jinchu, carefully concealing his emotions. “Ms. Sheng, can we be friends?”

Sheng Jinchu was taken aback and then smiled. “Of course, aren’t we already friends?”

He Yucheng smiled!

“Wife, let’s go!” Song Qing’an got out of the car and strode over, holding a glass of brown sugar water.

He walked to Sheng Jinchu’s side and brought the water to her lips. “Drink this. Did your stomach hurt again today?”

Sheng Jinchu obediently nestled in his arms and shook her head. “No, it doesn’t hurt anymore.” She took a sip of the brown sugar water from his hand.

He Yucheng was stunned by his “wife.” He looked at Sheng Jinchu in shock. “You, you two…”

Sheng Jinchu smiled at him. “Keep it a secret!”
