Chapter 26

No maintaining a safe distance from others, failing to uphold manly virtue! Major deduction!!

Humbly, Boss Xing is willing to accept all suggestions, and he opens a notepad, sitting in front of the webpage, reading the comments one by one.

First, maintain a safe distance from others.

Second, the best way to give your wife a sense of security is to be emotionally anchored at home and show your true feelings.

Third, pay the public grain.

How to show it, he can’t use sweet words, nor does he have the capital for flirtation; netizens suggest he wear certain clothes and light some candles, but these don’t seem to fit their situation, tsk…

Boss Xing falls into deep thought, while the beauty Tan is just as oblivious.

Even buried under the covers, kicking the blanket furiously, his usually well-managed long hair is a messy tangle from rubbing against the bedding, even a bit staticky.

Ah ah ah ah ah—

The key is, those online are all criticizing Boss Xing!

He just wanted to ask for help on how to make that green tea guy disappear, but the netizens firmly suggest divorce, saying this kind of man isn’t worth it.

What’s wrong with such a man? Sometimes Boss Xing is actually quite good…

As expected, just after he posted, “Sometimes he’s actually pretty good to me; I won’t divorce. It’s all that green tea guy’s fault. I just want them not to interact,” the floor was filled with 666 replies.

“So this is what’s known as pampered wife literature.”

“You’ve already been cheated on to the point of posting online for help and can still say you won’t divorce? I suggest locking your account.”

“Neurotic, how can you love this much? Just tolerate it. What help do you need…”

This was already the third time this month that Tan found himself thoroughly disappointed in the internet; why is everyone scolding him!! Boo hoo hoo, he didn’t do anything wrong!

However, a few serious suggestions in the posts about how to win back a man point out that the most important thing is the heart.

Men are creatures driven by their lower halves; wear some sexy skirts and be a bit gentler and more virtuous, no man can resist such a devoted wife!

Devoted wife?

Tan imagines himself in an apron cooking for Boss Xing, which sends shivers down his spine, so…

Far away in Germany, Qiu Jing is woken early by his incessant phone calls. The other party is silent, gritting his teeth: “Tan Zhiyu, if you’re calling to complain about your man’s divided heart, do you believe I’d fly back to kill you!”

Tan Zhiyu is sprawled in bed, holding the stuffed toy Boss Xing gave him: “Hey, am I not handsome?”

“Between me and Jiang Cheng, who is more handsome?”

“Aren’t you good at dating? Analyze it for me.”

Qiu Jing is sharpening the knife; he’s already extended his studies, this long three years is the longest in his five years in Germany, if he doesn’t graduate soon, he might forget he’s a rich second generation.

Recalling those wild days galloping through bars, Doctor Qiu almost shed tears of grievance, wiping his eyes: “What’s there to analyze? Brother, you’ve already fallen.”

“What charm did Xing Yang cast on you? He looks just average in photos…”

Very few know about their marriage, not even Tan Zhiyu’s parents, so on the wedding day, he only shared that photo with Qiu Jing and passionately cursed Boss Xing in a long post.

In less than half a year, everything has turned upside down.

Tan Zhiyu couldn’t help but roll his eyes at his words: “How can you be so superficial? Do you judge by looks alone?”

“What else? Tan Zhiyu, do you lack admirers? If you only like him for cooking and laundry, I suggest you get yourself a live-in maid; it’d save you the daily hassle.”

“Moreover, your pheromones match so well; how do you know it isn’t the gland’s effect leading to hormonal secretion that’s fooling you into liking him?”

“You’re 28, practically an elder in the entertainment circle. You’ve been working hard to maintain the single image for years and haven’t even had a relationship, yet he, Xing Yang, is only 28 in the business field, quite the young potential stock. How many people are sent to him at social gatherings? You think you can be his first love?”

“Wake up, old Tan! You’re being toyed with!”

“If Xing Yang is serious about you being in a contractual marriage, view him as a mere tool. If a beautiful woman daily needs you but requires no emotional commitment, you’d be happy just to be functional.”

Tan Zhiyu’s heart sank: “Impossible, how could anyone not love me?”

After all, he is Tan Zhiyu; the line of admirers extends all the way to Germany!

Qiu Jing: “…….”

“You’re talking nonsense. If he doesn’t like me, why would he give me roses? He loves me to the core; he just can’t express it. It must be Jiang Cheng messing things up, knowing he has a family and still trying to meddle. Should I buy some press releases?”

Qiu Jing: “Dude, are you sick?”

Everything he just said fell on deaf ears.

“Can’t you understand! He’s toying with your genuine feelings, it’s as easy as pie!! He might be secretly relishing the fact that this omega is truly crafty, in a few days, I’ll head back to confront this lunatic….”

Tan Zhiyu: “He explained to me about Jiang Cheng; he’s the brother of a partner.”

Qiu Jing: “Tell him to get lost.”

Tan Zhiyu: “Today he even specially returned home to make me a little cake; that’s a sign of affection, right?”

Qiu Jing: “You should just go too.”

Tan finds himself feeling a bit wronged; he wonders how Boss Xing could not have genuine feelings for him.

Am I really that bad…

He turns into a disappointed little cat, sitting at the head of the bed, feeling a bit sad thinking about the future divorce, imagining Boss Xing making cakes for Jiang Cheng, giving him roses, his heart feeling as if pricked by needles; his soft eyelashes tremble gently, the toy bear in his arms is also in a daze, leaving behind a lonely shadow in the scent of roses.

Three minutes later, the doorbell rings at Tan’s house.

Opening the door, Boss Xing is dressed in a black silk satin robe, lazily unbuttoned at the collar. What meets his eyes isn’t Xing Yang’s flushed face nor his awkward expression, but a bank card handed over by Boss Xing.

“This is for you.”

Tan Zhiyu frowns, scrutinizing the bank card; he can tell without thinking that the amount inside won’t be small.

What is he doing?

He comes all the way in the middle of the night just to give him money? Could this be his half of the assets after marriage? Is he going to — divorce!!

Tan Zhiyu feels like he’s been struck by lightning, his mind flashing back to Qiu Jing’s earlier words.

Seeing him hesitate to accept it, Xing Yang thinks his sincerity is lacking: “If this isn’t enough… I’ll go back to the company tomorrow and gather some more. All my properties and stocks and funds, etc….”

What they call paying public grain online, it should mean surrendering all assets, right…

Boss Xing speculates like this, believing having the money in his hands should provide him some sense of security?

While he’s thankful to himself for being truly smart and sincere, the beauty Tan across from him slightly trembles at the corners of his lips, his eyes blank like a deer abandoned by its owner, the corners of his mouth drooping despondently, blinking at him.

In that moment, their eyes meet.

Tan lets out his second wail of the day: “Xing Yang! Boo hoo hoo hoo— how dare you— toy with me!!”
