Heartwarming Aristocratic Marriage: Influential Master’s Wife-Chasing Strategy

During the lunch break, the capital of Yunjin was so quiet that you could hear the drop of a pin. Yan Chi had a wine party at noon and didn't get home until after two o'clock in the afternoon. He planned to ask Qiao Zhichu about something, but he sent a message in advance because he was afraid that he would take a nap.

[I’m not asleep, just come in. 】

When Yan Chi pushed the door open, he saw him holding the handle of the knife, "clang clang clang clang clang --" punching hard on a piece of waste stone. The stone was originally discarded, and he had poked holes all over it. Thin and dense.

He raised his eyebrows slightly. He seemed to be in a bad mood. He glanced at a piece of rabbit manuscript paper on his table and didn't pay attention to it.

Everyone has to keep pace with the times. A few years ago, Yutangchun also made some small gold and jade statues of Hello Kitty, which sold well. It’s also normal to have a cartoon bunny.

"Uncle." Qiao Zhichu put the knife down and looked at him.

"I want you to help me look at this picture." Yan Chi flipped through a few drawings and handed them to him, "What? Are you in a bad mood?"

"It's just that there is no polishing machine here, so we can only carve some semi-finished products, which is a bit uncomfortable." What Qiao Zhichu discovered was just his own guess. It was unconfirmed and there was no way to tell Yan Chi.

"But you're not going home."

Qiao Zhichu took his drawing and said nothing.

The other side

Chen Wangang met up with Duan Yiyan, rushed to a studio, took some additional shots, and then drove to northern Sichuan. When they arrived at the base, it was already around four o'clock in the evening. When they arrived at the guard, the uncle smiled and said, "We're back." ”

"Yeah." Chen Wan is not a talkative person, but he is the most famous one in this base.

"Your friend is here, the one you came out to pick up last time, so I let him in."

"How long have you been here?"

"It's been forty or fifty minutes."

Chen Wang nodded to him and drove inside. Apart from the Duan family, the only one who had been to his base was Qiao Zhichu. He and Duan Yiyan had just separated, so it must be...

As soon as he walked out of the parking lot, he saw Qiao Zhichu standing in the smoking area outside.

He held the cigarette with his fingers, and there was no wind in the air. The green smoke from the cigarette butt dispersed in the air and enveloped his body, making his slightly cold facial features appear softer.

"Why are you waiting here?" Chen Wan asked.

"Waiting for you." Qiao Zhichu raised his hand to put out the cigarette butt, and kept crushing the butt of the cigarette with his fingers, looking at him with eyes that became sharper.

After a few seconds, he walked out and broke out of the smoke circle. His facial features were clear and profound, and there was a slightly choking smell of smoke around him.

"I came here suddenly without making a call in advance." Chen Wan's expression was as calm as usual.

"I have something to ask you."

"Go to my dormitory?"

"I see that your teammates' training is almost over. They must all go back to their dormitories. Find a place where no one is around." After that, he added, "Somewhere more open!"

Chen Wan nodded and led him to the playground at the back, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of him rolling up his sleeves.

When there was no one around, Qiao Zhichu said, "Chen Wan, how long have we known each other?"

"Fourteen years."

"Although I have many friends, I don't really have many close friends. You are one of them." Qiao Zhichu rubbed his fingers, "I regard you as a close friend. Wouldn't it be unethical if you poached the corners of our family?"

Chen Wan looked at him. His facial features were clear and soft, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as innocent and harmless.

After learning chess for so long, he plays with a strategic attitude. Even if he is going to lose, he will not be timid at all. Therefore, he always has a look of leisurely clouds and wild cranes. I am afraid that Fu Chen will be here today, and his face will not be the same. There is a hint of color.

"You know our family's situation quite well, and you should know that there are too few girls."

"Your name is Chen Wan, but you can't be too arrogant when doing things, right? Our family is full of ruthless people, and you know this better than anyone else."

Chen Wang said softly, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Qiao Zhichu frowned. He originally wanted to deceive him. After all, he was just guessing at this time. A rabbit was not a solid proof. It would be best if he could deceive something. Seeing that he was silent, he took out his phone and found himself The painted rabbit was held up in front of him, "Is this... familiar?"

It's just that if ordinary people did something sneaky and shameful, they would have panicked or even denied it, but Chen Wan said it directly.

"Familiar. Fu Huan left this with me. I just returned it to her this morning."

"Before, at Fu's house, when I was taking her to school, she dropped the rabbit in my car. I had just arrived in Beijing that day, and there were many people in the car. I was not sure who the thing belonged to, and when I got it, The carrot that the rabbit was holding also fell off and was just fixed with glue."

"Last time I was afraid that you would knock off the glue, so I didn't let you touch it."

"Later I found out that it belonged to Fu Huan. I happened to be free today, so I gave the rabbit back to her. We met again in the morning. I originally wanted to ask you to come with me, but it was just a small thing, and it only took a few minutes. , I didn’t tell you.”

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"You just said poaching? What do you mean? You mean..."

"I want to chase your cousin?"

Chen Wanna's expression was too magnanimous and gentlemanly, while Qiao Zhichu frowned. Their identities and positions were reversed, and he instantly became the subject of questioning.

"How old is she? She's still in school. What can I do to her?"

"Besides, I came to the capital to compete, and I spend all my time training. I've been here for more than half a month, and I've only been out for a day or two. Even if I have the intention, do you think I have the time?"

Chen Wan choked softly, "I know you are worried about your sister, but..."

"Are you worried too much? If you don't believe me, just go back and ask her."

Chen Wan dared to say this because he was sure that Qiao Zhichu would not ask Fu Huan. If he could ask Fu Huan, he would not come to his place.

Qiao Zhichu frowned, maybe he was thinking too much.

If he went back to ask Fu Huan, with her temper, if it was nothing, she would definitely jump and say that he slandered her, and if he didn't make it, he would call Qiao Wangbei or Qiao Xiyan, and he would definitely have to go back to Wu Su.

"You really won't take action against Huanhuan?" Qiao Zhichu looked at him, as if he wanted a guarantee.

Chen Wan chuckled, "The competition is coming soon, do you think I have time?"

Qiao Zhichu raised his hand and pinched his brows. He was very sure in his heart that something must have happened to Fu Yu and Huai Sheng. Unfortunately, these two people still kept it secret, so when he thought of Chen Wan and Fu Huan, he took them for granted. Grouped into one category of people…

What happened to Fu Yu and Huai Sheng had nothing to do with him, and he couldn't get involved.

Besides, he really couldn't talk about this kind of thing casually. The tempers of Fu Sinian and Fu Yu...

It's hard to offend anyone.

"Have you stayed up late again recently? I see that the dark circles under your eyes are quite serious. People who lack sleep can easily have random thoughts."

"You came all the way here and found a deserted place just to talk about this?"

Chen Wana was calm.

Qiao Zhichu raised his eyebrows and said, "I was thinking that if you dare to admit it, I will beat you here until you don't even know your mother."

Although Chen Wan is a national Go player and looks like a member of the public, in fact he and Fu Huan are about the same age. They got a special admission quota at Beijing University in the summer, but their admission was postponed. The age difference between them is less than 3 years.

Chen Wan chuckled, his eyes falling on his calloused hands, after these few punches...

I'm afraid I won't even be able to participate in the competition.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to something to eat, but I only have a canteen here. The food is pretty good." Chen Wan said and led him towards the canteen, "Just because a rabbit thinks so much? Why don't you write a novel?"

Qiao Zhichu still felt something was strange.

But the evidence at hand is insufficient. If I come here like this, I might be a little bit alarmed.

…

In the cafeteria

No one dared to dine at the same table as Chen Wan, and besides, he still had guests. When his teammates came over one after another, they just said hello and went to sit down elsewhere.

Someone was a little too magnanimous, Qiao Zhichu kept staring at him, his expression never dropped, there was nothing unusual about him.

**

After seeing Qiao Zhichu off, Chen Wang stroked his cell phone and called Fu Huan.

Fu Huan was doing physics papers when he saw the caller ID and cleared his throat, "Hello——"

"My clothes are at your place."

"Well, how can I give it to you?" Fu Huan looked at the large team uniform on the bed.

"Come to watch my game, just bring it to me."

Fu Huan just checked his competition schedule, and it was all during the National Day.

"You come here early. I need to wear those clothes during the game."

"Game clothes?" In this competition, not only domestic players, but also foreign players are representing the country, so they naturally have to wear team uniforms.

This blocked Fu Huan's escape route and he had to go.

She knew that Song Feng was going to the party, but she was asked to bring her clothes there. She couldn't find a reason why Chen Wan's clothes were with her.

"Yeah." Chen Wan's voice was a little low. "I have to prepare for the competition with all my strength recently. I may not have time to teach you how to play chess. On the day of the competition..."

"I'm waiting for you."

Fu Huan didn't even know why his simple words made his heart tremble, and his fingers holding the pen were covered in a layer of hot sweat.

"Yeah." She nodded, feeling a little warm all over and her throat was a little hoarse.

"Your cousin came to see me just now. He seemed to have misunderstood our relationship. As expected of a sculptor, his observations are very detailed."

Fu Huan frowned, "Cousin..."

"It's the same rabbit, he's seen it at the base before."

Chen Wan spoke casually, chatted for a few more words, and hung up the phone.

Fu Huan's eyes fell on the rabbit, thoughtfully.

Speaking of which, my cousin has been in the capital for a long time, so he doesn’t miss his uncle and aunt at all? It's time to go home.

A smile suddenly appeared on her lips, she picked up the rabbit and pinched it twice, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.

**

Qiao Zhichu was driving out of northern Sichuan at this time. He passed by Jing's house and went in to say hello. He was thinking that Fu Huan liked crabs, so he asked Jing Hanchuan for some plump crab roes.

Before he arrived at the capital of Yunjin, his phone vibrated and he squinted his eyes.

Remarks [An irritable and authoritarian man with double standards].

His remarks about Tang Jingci were two simple and crude words: [mother].

"Hey, Dad -" He casually put on his Bluetooth headset and observed the traffic. There was a bit of a traffic jam.

"You've been out for a long time, right? You're quite embarrassed to have stayed at your aunt's house for so long and troubled her so much?"

Qiao Zhichu frowned, he hadn't provoked him recently, Hao Duanduan called him, and whenever he disagreed, he said he was thick-skinned.

"I still don't understand your thoughts? Do you think I'm annoying and don't want to come back?"

"Dad, I didn't." Qiao Zhichu smiled bitterly.

"Pack up your things and go back to Wusu tomorrow."

"No, Dad, I..."

"Beep——" The voice on the other side was blind.

Qiao Zhichu grabbed the steering wheel. What happened to his dad that he suddenly asked him to go back? baffling.

But Qiao Xiyan said so, so Qiao Zhichu naturally wanted to listen, and he had indeed stayed in the capital for too long. He originally wanted to go home after watching Chen Wan's game on National Day, but his plan couldn't keep up with the change.

He conveniently dialed Chen Wan.

"Hey, Chen Wan."

"Are you home?" Chen Wan didn't know that he had also gone to the Jing family. He estimated the time and thought he had arrived at the capital of Yunjin.

"Not yet. I'm going back to Wu Su tomorrow. I probably won't be able to watch you compete. You can do your best."

Chen Wan pursed his lips and said, "You're not a special person. Whether you come or not doesn't have much impact on me."

"Why are you such a mouthy kid!" Qiao Zhichu muttered.

It's normal for friends to joke around and dislike each other. Qiao Zhichuquan treated it as a joke and didn't take it seriously at all.

Little do we know that some truths are told through jokes...

After hanging up the phone, Chen Wang lowered his head to study the chess game in front of him, rubbing a white chess piece with his fingers. After a while, he suddenly laughed out loud...

Glancing at the corner of the table, I saw that the place where the rabbit had been placed was now vacant. The rabbit suddenly disappeared, which felt a bit strange.

Habits are really not a good thing!

I kind of miss that rabbit.

Little cousin, you are too impatient, really...

Okay now, your dad has asked you to go home.

I don’t know who informed Qiao Xiyan, and I dare not say.

Fu Huan: [Pinch the rabbit] ^_^
