A Chance Marriage: Pick up a CEO to be a husband

Chapter 28

It was late at night in New York.

Su Xiaonian was already asleep. She was wearing his white shirt, and her slender fingers were intertwined with Ye Zechen's.

The white and bronze colors formed a stark contrast, but in Ye Zechen's eyes, it was just a light gray and a dark gray.

After some time, Ye Zechen took out his phone and took a photo of their intertwined fingers. He then posted it on the Weibo account that the company had registered for him.

He had accumulated tens of millions of fans since he opened his Weibo account.

Even though Ye Zechen hadn't done anything, his identity as the CEO of T.N.C. Corporation was enough to make people go crazy.

Ye Zechen had never used this account before. Even though he knew the account and password, it was managed by someone in the company, so he wasn't interested.

However, in the evening, Ye Zechen called and asked for the account and password.

As for the photo … he only sent four simple words, "My woman."

Almost at the same time, the Weibo notification sounds rang, and countless @ s and private messages flooded in.

Ye Zechen didn't even look at them. He just closed the page and threw his phone on the bedside table.

Suddenly, there was a sound at the door. Ye Zechen looked up slightly.

A delicate face suddenly appeared through the gap of the door. It was Su Tuantuan! He was also holding his favorite panda pillow in his arms.

Ye Zechen waved at his son.

Su Tuantuan walked to the side of the bed and looked at the spot between Su Xiaonian and Ye Zechen with envy.

Ye Zechen tilted his body slightly so that Su Tuantuan could successfully climb up.

As for Oscar, who had followed the little master in, he obediently lay on the floor.

"Daddy, Mommy, Tuantuan love you guys. Goodnight."

Su Tuantuan yawned and kissed Ye Zechen's face. His fluffy little head then burrowed into Su Xiaonian's arms.

His chubby little hand held one of Su Xiaonian's and Ye Zechen's fingers … Soon, he fell asleep.

Ye Zechen tilted his head and looked at the adult and child beside him. After a while … he said, "Goodnight."

When the busy day in New York began, it was night in J-City.

It was hot and stuffy, and it seemed like it was going to rain.

When Ye Chengtao found Tu Haohao, she was vomiting in the women's restroom, forcing herself to vomit the wine she had drunk.

He picked up the "Under Repair" sign and hung it outside the door. Then, he closed the door from the inside and locked it.

Tu Haohao straightened up when she heard the noise. When she saw that it was him, her expression didn't change.

She only took out a tissue to wipe her mouth. Her eyes were red from vomiting, and they seemed to be dripping with water.

She slowly walked to the washstand and turned on the tap.

"This is the women's restroom," she said.

Ye Chengtao looked at her straight back and for some reason, a surge of anger surged in his heart.

Soon, this anger turned into action.

He suddenly reached out and turned Tu Haohao around to face him.

But when Ye Chengtao looked into those eyes, he couldn't say a single word.

Tu Haohao just looked at him without any expression.

The sound of the tap running behind her became the only sound in the restroom.

"It hurts." Tu Haohao reached out and placed her hand on the back of Ye Chengtao's hand. It was cold, without any warmth.

Ever since her uterus was removed, her body would often be in such a cold state.

Ye Chengtao suddenly released his hand that was still on her shoulder.

"I'll send you back," he said.

Tu Haohao didn't seem to hear him and didn't respond. She turned back to face the mirror on the washstand and rinsed her mouth with water.

She felt that her body was a little light, but it was still within a controllable range. She didn't lose her composure.

She raised her head. Through the mirror, Tu Haohao saw the worry in Ye Chengtao's eyes.

For a moment, Tu Haohao's movements stopped. She closed her long eyelashes and hid all the emotions in her eyes.

"Ye Chengtao." Suddenly, she called out his name.

"Hmm?" Ye Chengtao responded. There was still an echo in the large bathroom.

He only heard a rumbling sound outside, accompanied by rapid thunder that split the hot and stuffy sky.

"It's going to rain."

Just when Ye Chengtao thought that Tu Haohao was going to say something, she brought up something completely unrelated.

Ye Chengtao subconsciously followed her gaze and looked out the window.

But in the next second, Tu Haohao walked in front of him and reached out her cold hand to pinch his chin.

She tiptoed and kissed Ye Chengtao's lips while he lowered his head in shock.

It was really just a simple kiss. Tu Haohao didn't do anything else.

But Ye Chengtao could still taste the white wine between her lips, and it seemed to be mixed with some red wine.

"Haha, I'm just kidding."

Tu Haohao took out a tissue and wiped her mouth. Her action was still not insulting.

Ye Chengtao, however, stood there stiffly.

The moment her lips came close to his, he subconsciously clenched his fists on both sides of his body. He quietly looked down at her and didn't say anything.

The two of them walked out, one after the other.

They didn't know when, but it was already pouring outside.

Although Ye Chengtao knew that it would rain, he didn't seem to think that it would rain so quickly. He put the umbrella in the car.

"I'll drive over."

Without waiting for Tu Haohao to respond, Ye Chengtao had already rushed into the rain.

Tu Haohao quietly looked at his back.

Suddenly, she took a step forward in her high heels. Half of her body was exposed to the wind and rain.

Her breath reeked of alcohol, but her eyes were very clear. She reached out and touched the raindrops falling from the sky, like a child who had found a new toy.

Step by step, she walked in the direction that Ye Chengtao had just gone.

The rain fell on Tu Haohao's body and quickly soaked her business suit. However, the corner of her mouth curled up into a faint smile.

Ye Chengtao, who was driving over, saw it. His heart suddenly tightened.

"Didn't I tell you to wait for me?"

The rain was very heavy. Ye Chengtao rushed in front of her and said in a low voice.

"Oh." Tu Haohao's gaze fell on him. After a long time, she only said this word.

"Will it affect your part-time job?" Tu Haohao seemed to have thought of something and asked again.

Screw his part-time job!

Ye Chengtao reached out and grabbed Tu Haohao's wrist, forcefully pulling her back into the car.

With a bang, he slammed the car door, blocking the wind and rain outside.

It was very quiet in the car. Tu Haohao's whole body was soaked in the rain. She sat on the seat, still a little cold, and her face was green.

However, she did not show any expression and only looked out of the car window.

"Let's go to your house."

Because of work, Ye Chengtao rented a bedroom and a living room outside.

His Adam's apple moved up and down, and he did not say anything for a long time.

Twenty minutes later, Ye Chengtao drove the car to the old neighborhood where he rented.

Without waiting for him to hold up the umbrella, Tu Haohao had already gotten out of the car and walked upstairs. She had the keys to his house, so she could open the door and enter by herself.

However, Ye Chengtao smoked a cigarette at the bottom of the stairs. He only went upstairs after he finished smoking one.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Tu Haohao casually took off her wet clothes and threw them on the floor.

When Ye Chengtao saw that, he bent over to pick them up and threw them into the laundry basket. Anyway, he had a change of clothes for her.

Soon, Tu Haohao walked out of the bathroom and stepped on the tiles with her bare feet.

She ignored Ye Chengtao and casually put on his T-shirt. She took out a can of beer from the fridge and sat in front of the television to watch it.

Ye Chengtao looked at her back view and turned to enter the bathroom.

When he was taking a shower, he accidentally saw the light blue underwear hanging on the rope. It was still dripping with water.

The apartment he rented did not have a balcony, so the laundry could only be hung like that.

When Ye Chengtao went out, Tu Haohao had just finished drinking her beer.

She raised her snow-white wrist and threw the can of beer into the trash can. With a click, it hit!

A rare childish smile appeared on Tu Haohao's face.

— — Just now you said that I was being cheap. Then tell me, during this period, did you really … not have any feelings for me?

Suddenly, that soft and trembling voice appeared in Ye Chengtao's mind.

He laughed self-deprecatingly, then walked over and sat down next to her.

The way they interacted was actually very strange. During the day, their relationship was that of superior and subordinate, but after work, she often came to his house.

There was no softness involved, perhaps it was just an occasional kiss.

"The bank has already decided not to issue loans to Tu Group," Tu Haohao said, but there was no disappointment on her face, only calmness.

"Looks like I need to earn more money to be able to support you," Ye Chengtao said half-jokingly as he placed both hands on the tile.

The television was broadcasting a variety show, and it was very lively.

Outside, it was pouring cats and dogs, pitter-patter.

Only between the two of them, after saying these words, they fell into silence.

"Ye Chengtao, I said before, no matter what happened between us in the past, you don't have to take responsibility for me anymore." She chuckled lightly, her voice carrying a hint of mockery.

"Tu Haohao, I want to support you." Ye Chengtao was silent for a moment, then his voice was very soft.

"I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first, good night."

Tu Haohao did not give him any response. She turned around and walked towards the only single bed in the room.

Very quickly, she wrapped herself in a thin blanket.

Just like that, Ye Chengtao looked at Tu Haohao's petite figure. Not long after, she spread out on the floor …

It was midnight, and it was still raining.

Tu Haohao, who was originally lying on the bed, was now sitting quietly by the side of the bed.

In the room, the television was not turned off, and the bedside lamp was not switched on either.

These were all things that Ye Chengtao had kept for her, according to her wishes.

He slept quietly, and Tu Haohao just looked at Ye Chengtao's face.

In five years, she had changed a lot, and he, too, had changed a lot.

Without the hedonistic personality that was ingrained in his bones, Ye Chengtao had matured a lot, as if he had been reborn.

The orange bedside lamp softened Tu Haohao's fine features, and the shadows of her long eyelashes fell on her face, adding to the cold feeling.

Suddenly, two streams of tears fell silently from her eyes. Without any warning, she cried silently.

Then, she got off the bed and sat beside him, quietly, and her shadow on the ground was very long.

After an unknown period of time, Tu Haohao lifted a corner of his thin blanket and lay down.

As if he had sensed it, Ye Chengtao, who was in a deep sleep, reached out and hugged her.

His handsome face was buried in her back, and Tu Haohao's back was facing Ye Chengtao, sharing a pillow with him …

Su Xiaonian received the call early in the morning. At that moment, Su Tuantuan was seriously brushing his teeth, going back and forth from left to right.

In Su Xiaonian's eyes, she felt that her son was deliberately acting cute.

If he had said this to Su Tuantuan, Su Xiaonian would not have needed to guess to know how he would reply.

— — Tuantuan was cute to begin with, Tuantuan didn't need to sell himself.

At the same time, her phone suddenly rang. Su Xiaonian thought that the call was from Ye Zechen, so she picked it up.

Unexpectedly, a sarcastic voice came from the other end of the phone. "Su Xiaonian, I really didn't expect you to be able to play me like a fool!"
