Chapter 201: Chapter 201 You’re Asking for It, Aren’t You?
Chapter 201 -201 You’re Asking for It, Aren’t You?
Ye Chuyi stiffened again.
She had already decided that she would absolutely not take walks with Sheng Tingyuan anymore. Probably every time he suggested it, he didn’t have good intentions!
With a bit of force, she pushed him away and, without bothering with him, started to jog.
Sheng Tingyuan chased after her, following at an unhurried pace.
After running for a while, Ye Chuyi realized that she had taken the wrong path. All the villas in this area had very similar exteriors, and the villa before her was not Sheng Tingyuan’s.
Sheng Tingyuan chuckled, “What, planning to stay at this one tonight?”
Ye Chuyi turned around and glared at him, “You knew I took the wrong path and you didn’t remind me? Haven’t got tired of the rain yet?”
Sheng Tingyuan smiled, stepped forward, and took her hand again, “This way.”
Ye Chuyi unwillingly let him lead her. After walking a big circle with him, they finally returned home.
By the time they entered the living room, he looked like a drowned rat, dripping water from head to toe.
Ye Chuyi fared slightly better because she had worn a hat and his waterproof coat.
Auntie Wang hurriedly offered two large towels, “Young master, Madam, dry yourselves quick. I’ve also simmered some ginger soup, have a bowl later!”
Sheng Tingyuan nodded at her, “Well done, you can get off work now!”
Auntie Wang agreed and took her large umbrella before leaving. She wasn’t as foolish as these young people, she knew to use an umbrella.
Ye Chuyi dried her hair and drank a bowl of ginger soup before taking a bath.
After coming out, she drank another bowl, felt the sweat breaking out all over her body, which was very comforting. Then she carried a bowl and went to look for Sheng Tingyuan.
Sheng Tingyuan was on the phone in the study. She knocked on the door and, hearing him say come in, she entered.
She placed the ginger soup on the table and said in a very soft voice, “Have another bowl, don’t catch a cold,” otherwise, she would feel like it was her fault.
After being married for so long, it was the first time Sheng Tingyuan felt his wife’s care. He stopped his phone call, took the ginger soup, and drank it in one gulp.
Ye Chuyi watched, dumbfounded. Wasn’t it hot for him?
Sheng Tingyuan looked at her. Her cheeks were rosy from her recent bath, and her hair was a bit messy from drying it. She looked adorably dazed.
He set down the bowl and smoothed her hair with his fingers, then touched her cheek.
Yes, just as smooth and soft as he had imagined, excellent to the touch.
He leaned in slightly, about to kiss her, but Ye Chuyi slipped from his grasp and ran away without looking back.
He shook his head and didn’t chase after her, picking up his phone to continue the call instead.
Ye Chuyi ran back to her bedroom, patted her cheeks, trying to dispel the unusual sensation of his touch, and stood by the window to watch the rain.
She couldn’t help but reach out to catch some rain, thinking cheerfully to herself, I wonder where Meng Li will stay tonight? If she has nowhere to go, will she seek help from Wen Nianyou?
Seeing Meng Li in such a foul state, would Wen Nianyou help her?
In the Wen Family villa,
Meng Li stood outside the gates, waiting for Wen Nianyou to come out.
Ye Chuyi wasn’t wrong; she now had nowhere to live, not even clean clothes to wear, and had no choice but to seek Wen Nianyou’s help because the rental place she had been living in was closest to her.
Yet, she had been waiting outside for a long time, and Wen Nianyou hadn’t come out.
Her teeth chattered; she was cold and hungry, and her stomach was in unbearable pain.
Shivering, she took out her phone and called Wen Nianyou again.
Wen Nianyou didn’t pick up, so she sent several texts instead.
After what felt like an eternity, Wen Nianyou finally came out leisurely with an umbrella in hand.
As she neared Meng Li, she instantly frowned, “What’s going on? Why do you stink? Fell into a manure pit?”
Meng Li was extremely embarrassed. She was drenched, and the rain couldn’t wash away the awful stench, even though she had changed her trousers; she still smelled bad.

She said through gritted teeth, “I was set up by Lin Chuyi, it’s all her fault!”
“She pushed you into a manure pit?”
“No, I met up with her for coffee today, I had the waiter slip her a laxative, but somehow she played some trick behind my back, and the waiter served me the drugged one, now my stomach is killing me.”
“A laxative? You have diarrhea?”
“I… yes.”
“So, you got what you deserved? You fool, can’t even drug someone right!”
