She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 124: The Groom Ran Away on His Wedding Night 35
In the morning, Ah Chen was sitting at the dining table enjoying a lovingly prepared breakfast.
Opposite her, Xie Yan was observing her expression and noticed she seemed as normal as ever, not a hint of tiredness. It was initially a bit fearful, but why did it seem different now?
Could it be that last night was just a dream? Was he too aggressive in the dream, but not in reality?
"Aren’t you eating?" Ah Chen looked up and asked with a smile.
Xie Yan hurriedly ate, his mind full of chaotic thoughts, filled with all sorts of suspicions, far from the usual solemn President Xie in front of others.
He was sure that last night wasn’t a dream.
But considering how strong he was, and Ah Chen was normal the next day, surely it wasn’t her problem. Was he actually not that great?
"Find me a professional fitness coach," Xie Yan instructed Yuan Zhicheng, "In the future, I need to schedule fitness training as well."
Yuan Zhicheng paused for a moment, "Boss, your physique is pretty good."
"Just find one, don’t talk so much," Xie Yan was displeased, not knowing if Sister Ah Chen would mind him.
Yuan Zhicheng suddenly understood, grinning slyly, he asked, "Boss, do you need any other supplements?"
Could it be that the boss only seemed fine but was actually weak?
Xie Yan’s face turned unpleasant, surely not?
Ah Chen noticed Xie Yan’s behavior these past few days and found a chance to ask him, "What have you been fussing over lately?"
Caught, Xie Yan had no choice but to honestly explain.
"You’re doing great," Ah Chen praised, "Didn’t I say you’re doing well? Why doubt yourself?"
Xie Yan didn’t dare to say that what if it was because Sister Ah Chen liked him too much and was just acting? There were stories like that, and he’d heard quite a few.
"I’m very satisfied with Ah Yin." Ah Chen kissed him on the cheek and turned to leave, "Come home early tonight."
Xie Yan wanted to grab her, but there were still many things to do today.
He handled everything quickly, finished work early, and rushed to their little nest after work, opened the door to find her, and pounced like a starving wolfdog.
"Stop giving me those unreliable suggestions. Someone like me doesn’t need medication," Xie Yan warned Yuan Zhicheng.
"And you too, being a family man now, keep yourself in check."
If he had any dissatisfaction with Yuan Zhicheng, it would be this.
But the other was sensible, wouldn’t bother him with such things at the office, and wouldn’t dare to make a scene or leverage his current position, otherwise, arrangements would have been made long ago.
In business, many men are like that, not just men, successful women can also be quite frivolous.
He naturally couldn’t control such things, aside from work, he wouldn’t have any interactions with them.
Yuan Zhicheng forced a smile, only daring to agree. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
It’s normal for men to appreciate beauty, he could only say he’d try his best.
Like the boss, that’s a rare breed among men, isn’t it?
But he’s someone who knows boundaries, fooling around behind the boss’s back is one thing, but to dare to mess about in front of the boss, not to mention the boss cleaning him up, even Lv Chen might do so. She hadn’t hit anyone all these years, but he still vividly remembered how she looked when she did.
"From now on, I’m going to live with Sister Ah Chen, Old Yuan, you’re getting older, you should enjoy life, spend more time with family. It’s been tiring following me around all these years," Xie Yan said, "Anyway, money isn’t an issue, do whatever you want, don’t need to keep running around with me. But, watch your limits, don’t do anything bad."
Yuan Zhicheng gratefully said, "Thank you, boss."
In fact, his abilities were limited from the start. The boss, remembering their past companionship, even shared some shares with him. As long as the boss was around, he’d be able to live comfortably for the rest of his life.
One night, Xie Yan and Ah Chen were watching TV in the living room.
Xie Yan’s phone rang, he picked it up and after hearing the news inside, was a bit dumbfounded.
"What is it?" Ah Chen asked.
Xie Yan couldn’t help himself, holding her face and giving her a kiss, Sister Ah Chen was his, he could never kiss her enough, then he said, "Yuan Zhicheng got into trouble, got his leg broken, and is currently in the hospital."
It turned out Yuan Zhicheng had flirted with a woman, claiming to be single when out playing, but the woman was married. Her husband was the one who broke his leg.
Ah Chen lightly shook her head; she knew back then that Yuan Zhicheng was cunning and eventually got caught up in this area, unsurprisingly.
Later, Ah Chen met Yuan Zhicheng’s wife, who wasn’t angry, carefully taking care of him in the hospital. She was a gentle and kind person. Ah Chen overheard her in the restroom, saying her husband gave her a hundred thousand a month, treating him like a boss, which was much better than working, and the boss had a good temper, occasionally cooked, and the food was quite good.
Ah Chen was momentarily speechless, but as long as they could get along, it was fine.
However, after that, Yuan Zhicheng did become more well-behaved, whether permanently or not was unknown.
During the holidays, the Lv Family in Wenshi Village remained the liveliest.
Even though Lv Ling and his wife, along with Ah Chen and Xie Yan, had set up their homes elsewhere, they would always return to Wenshi Village whenever they could. Dengtong Town was now bustling, with the surrounding towns also well-developed, with various public facilities gradually fitting in, making travel convenient.
It is worth noting that Liao Qian didn’t come back to develop herself.
Not to avoid the Liao Family, but because her major was better utilized where her university was located, so she stayed and worked hard there. Dengtong Town had special significance for her; it was a place of heartache yet also warmth, and she would return whenever she could.
The Liao Family did bother her, even coming to the Lv Family to cause trouble, and eventually, it ended up on a show.
The result, naturally, was a "group beating."
Liao Qian agreed to appear on the show, and not only that, those whom the Lv Family had sponsored, along with some good-hearted people from around here, went on to verbally thrash the Liao Family to the point of being drenched in spit, nearly drowned by it. They not only lashed out at the Liao Family but also criticized the program for not verifying facts and coming for the hype.
Not a few from this area had made it big, and after reporting the program, the procedure moved exceptionally fast, and it was soon taken down.
After that, the Liao Family lowered their flags and silenced their drums, truly not daring to stir up trouble anymore.
With the development of Dengtong Town and the surrounding areas, as long as one had a pair of hands, there was no fear of starvation, and one could even live better than people from many other places in the country, but many saw better opportunities and were unwilling, needing to stir things up to feel at ease.
Xiang Yue would occasionally visit Dengtong Town to see Xie Yan, though their relationship wasn’t as intimate as that of a typical mother and child, it was still quite good.
As for the Yun Family, they all ended up behind bars, taking quite a few years to get out, especially Yun Qing, who was sentenced to an even longer term.
Ah Chen hadn’t heard any news of Wei Menglan’s divorce, but she didn’t return to stay at the Shen Family, spending holidays at the factory instead.
Once, on New Year’s Eve, the Lv Family went to Yuan Zhicheng’s restaurant to support him, booking a table for the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Yuan Zhicheng had stopped fooling around, but found merely hanging out didn’t sit well, and weird thoughts would come up easily, so he started a restaurant. Because it tasted good, plus he didn’t lack money, he was devoted to it, and business thrived, earning a great reputation.
Ah Chen didn’t cook, and since there was ready-made food, she wouldn’t have Xie Yan cook either, simply ordering from the restaurant, as everyone was used to it.
Every time Yuan Zhicheng saw her order, he’d be all smiles and personally went to the kitchen, finding life much more fulfilling.
He thought maybe he was born to be a chef? Feeling uncomfortable if not cooking.
Later on, Yuan Zhicheng found the business too good and converted the restaurant into a private dining place, requiring reservations, yet orders continued to flood in.
But for Ah Chen and Xie Yan, they could always get a reservation whenever they wanted.
It was also on that New Year’s Eve that Ah Chen saw Wei Menglan and Shen Tong, mother and daughter, dining at Yuan Zhicheng’s restaurant for dinner.
