I Married the Male Lead of a CP-free Novel

Chapter 23 — Selling houses. What’s going on with Wen Yu?

After eating, Chi Zhengzheng returned to her room, and Wen Yu went into the study.

After so many things happened this day, after a nice bath, Chi Zhengzheng went to bed.

She didn’t set an alarm clock, so when she woke up the next day, it was already ten in the morning, and the sky was already bright.

Pulling the curtains, the bright sunlight came in from outside, she smiled and stretched her back.

Downstairs, there was breakfast on the dining table.

But the house was quiet inside, apparently, Wen Yu had gone out.

She entered the kitchen with light footsteps, heated up the breakfast, and ate it slowly and methodically.

“Comfortable…”

This was life.

In her last life, she had to get up early to go to work, and every weekend she slept enough to get up, she ate breakfast slowly and was happy as she could play on her phone or catch up on dramas afterward.

This was the first time she had been so comfortable since she transmigrated.

After eating, she was not idle.

Today, she wanted to familiarize herself with the place she lived in, and then think about what work she could do since she had no money in her pocket, so she had to think of a way to make money.

She went out, within less than an hour, she ran back with a pale face.

Once the door was closed, she sat on the sofa with her neck shrunk, hugging a pillow and trembling slightly.

Her hands were shaking so badly that she couldn’t type, so she sent a voice-

“W-Wen Yu, are you coming back at noon today?”

At the other end, Wen Yu had just finished a meeting.

Secretary Ning and the female secretary who went to deliver the clothes yesterday were behind him, and Secretary Ning reported: “… These four contracts need the boss’s signature, and Manager Chen’s report has been handed in, so you need to read it…”

Wen Yu nodded his head.

After Secretary Ning finished, he clicked to play that voice.

The secretary Ning and the special assistant Gao, who were walking behind him, paused slightly while walking, then their faces returned to a calm state, but their eyes always glanced over at Wen Yu’s back.

After listening, Wen Yu frowned slightly.

What’s going on?

He could hear the uneasiness in Chi Zhengzheng’s voice, and he replied-

“What happened?”

Without waiting for a reply from the other end, he looked at Secretary Ning: “Give me all the documents to be signed, and leave the rest of the information in the office.”

“…. Yes.” Secretary Ning handed it to him.

He flipped it open while walking, and when he waited until he got to the office, he signed three copies directly on the desk, and threw one to the secretary, “Page two, article sixteen, there are revisions to be made.”

After saying that, he took out his phone again, and this time the opposite side texted-

[Nothing.]

[I’m just asking…]

Wen Yu didn’t reply, he put away the phone, and while walking out, he said, “Have the driver wait for me downstairs.”

“Yes…”

Wen Yu had disappeared, Secretary Ning hurriedly called the driver while the rest of the people looked at each other with a shocked faces.

Only Secretary Xu, the female secretary who delivered the clothes last night, was expressionless at the moment, looking at the others with faint contempt –

Tch, you guys know nothing about the boss’s love life.

Chi Zhengzheng was inside her room but couldn’t calm down, she wanted to go out, but didn’t dare to step out of the door of this house.

She wasn’t very brave, and now she was about to be scared out of her wits.

Even looking at the house where she had lived last night, she felt that it was so big and scary.

Such a large house, all empty, all on her own…

She’s the only one in such a big house…

At that moment, someone opened the door.

“Ah-” Chi Zhengzheng subconsciously screamed, throwing pillows towards the door.

Wen Yu, who hurried back, reached out to catch the pillows and saw her panicked face, he frowned, eyes showing worry: “Chi Zhengzheng, what happened? Don’t be afraid.”

He stepped forward and walked up to Chi Zhengzheng, his warm hand clasped her wrist that was trembling with nervousness.

After clasping it, he realized that her hand was frighteningly cold, and suddenly his brow furrowed even more.

Chi Zhengzheng saw that it was him, let out a long breath, and breathed with a pale face

She was already white, but also very thin, with a pale face, she was so nervous that her forehead had beads of sweat, eyes with a panicked look. It really made people’s hearts move.

Wen Yu’s other hand reached out, patted her back, softened his voice, and bowed his head to soothe: “It’s okay, Chi Zhengzheng is okay, tell me, what happened?”

Chi Zhengzheng stretched out her hand and grasped Wen Yu’s clothes tightly, with a bit of fear on her face: “I went out and looked around the community. No one. Not a single person. There was not a single person! ”

She originally wanted to see the neighborhood to see what kind of people lived around, but it turned out that it was empty everywhere, surprisingly she couldn’t see a single person.

There was no trace of anyone living in any house, all the outer doors were open, and there were no cars.

She was shocked and walked far away, hoping to see someone, but there was no one there!

She was alone in the neighborhood, except for the sound of her own footsteps, there was no movement whatsoever.

Chi Zhengzheng was stunned.

She wanted to get out of the neighborhood, but the neighborhood was too big and she didn’t find the entrance gate she came in last night.

This was a community, even if it was a villa area, it was impossible that there was no one in broad daylight ah!

“She didn’t dare to see anymore, and hurriedly ran back.

“It’s really scary, there’s not a single person!” Chi Zhengzheng took a deep breath while clutching her wildly beating heart.

When she rented a house in her last life, the neighborhood she lived in was very lively, and as long as she walked out, she could hear the sounds of children playing.

Even if the villa area was quiet, it wasn’t like this!

She ran back and closed the door, the large house was so quiet that she could not hear any movement.

Chi Zhengzheng was not originally a person in this world, and she didn’t even know what kind of existence she was. How could she not be afraid?

Wen Yu listened and understood.

He was slightly stunned, and then he laughed and gently reassured her: “Don’t be afraid, it’s normal that there’s no one, this neighborhood is not for sale, no one else lives in it yet.”

He liked silence, and he was never scared that he was the only one living in this community. He didn’t expect that when he forgot to tell her and it scared her like this.

His heart was immediately amused, but also a bit distressed.

Chi Zhengzheng smiled, blinked blankly: “Huh?”

It turned out that the community was not up for sale yet?!

Wen Yu patted her back, “Don’t worry about it, later I’ll let Auntie Wang and the others come over.”

She froze for a while before she got over the panic and fear she had just felt and let out a long breath, not refusing to let Auntie Wang stay over.

-She wasn’t a brave person.

She wouldn’t dare to live alone in this neighborhood.

After not being so frightened, she realized that she was still holding onto Wen Yu’s sleeve and hurriedly let go.

Her smile was a little embarrassed, scratching her head: “Uhm… I’m sorry for bothering you, I am not very courageous… “

Wen Yu also let go of his hand, reached for a cup, and poured her a glass of water, handing it to her: “It’s okay, it’s more convenient for Auntie Want and the others to live here.”

He himself didn’t like to have other people living here, but Chi Zhengzheng obviously didn’t like it. He was relieved when he asked Auntie Wang and the others to come over.

Chi Zhengzheng took the water and glanced at Wen Yu gratefully.

After taking a sip of water and wiping the cold sweat that had appeared from her forehead, she said, “Wen Yu, you have a lot of guts…”

He dared to live here alone, Wen Yu’s courage was really something she admired.

And even if she knew that the neighborhood was empty because it wasn’t up for sale yet, she was still scared.

“I’m used to it, there’s nothing to be afraid of.” Wen Yu said softly.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid, he didn’t know if there are ghosts in this world, but he never met any ghosts that harmed him, the people who harmed him were quite a lot, people could sometimes be much scarier than illusory ghosts.

He looked at Chi Zhengzheng, who was still scared next to him. He laughed and the corners of his mouth rose a little.
