I Married the Male Lead of a CP-free Novel

Chapter 38 — Blush

He and Wen Yu have always been at odds since they were young. Apart from the time he just arrived at the Wen house, they never had a fight, only when he just arrived at the Wen house, Wen Yu beat him because he grabbed his things.

But later, probably knowing that there was no benefit in hitting him, Wen Yu never hit him again.

He never expected that because of Chi Zhengzheng, he actually did it.

Looking at Wen Yu’s eyes, Wen Yiran had no doubt-

Wen Yu liked Chi Zhengzheng.

And now, Wen Yu wanted to kill him.

His heart inexplicably trembled, but it was soon covered up by anger again.

With force in his hands, Wen Yiran propped himself off the ground and got up, with a smile at the corner of his mouth taunting: “Wen Yu, how long have you been Chi Zhengzheng’s fiancé? Before that, she has been my fiancée, she liked me for so many years, do you think you can really have this woman?”

Wen Yu’s hand trembled slightly, the veins on his forehead throbbed, and he gritted his teeth.

At that moment, violence was rampant in his eyes.

“Don’t go near her again.” Wen Yu said.

“Why? Wen Yu, you aren’t worthy of Chi Zhengzheng, she likes me, and now that she has succeeded and I’m also attracted to her, do you think you still have a chance?” Wen Yiran’s face was full of mockery, the pain in his cheek made him feel humiliated and angry.

Wen Yu’s teeth clenched tighter, he thought of Chi Zhengzheng’s years of liking Wen Yiran…

Wen Yu lowered his head and looked at Chi Zhengzheng with fear in his complicated eyes, and his voice was hoarse: “Zhengzheng, let’s go.”

After saying that, he wrapped his arms around Chi Zhengzheng, and then he was about to leave, panicking.

– Wen Yu didn’t dare to think about what it would be like if Chi Zhengzheng left him. How could he let go of the warmth he had held in his hands for such a short time?

– Feeling the warmth and then losing that warmth, made him even more uncomfortable than being killed.

Chi Zhengzheng could feel the slight trembling of the man holding her, she said: “Wait!”

Wen Yu didn’t stop. For the first time, the hand holding her arm was so hard, as if he wanted to forcibly take her away as if he was afraid that she would say something that would scare him.

– This is the first time that Wen Yu had known what fear was after living for more than 20 years.

“Wen Yu! Do you think you can get her just because you took Zhengzheng away?! That’s impossible, what doesn’t belong to you, will never belong to you!” Wen Yiran shouted.

Wen Yu stumbled on his feet and finally stopped.

Chi Zhengzheng looked up, Wen Yu was also looking at her, his expression was… desperate?

She was a little surprised, she didn’t understand what Wen Yu was afraid of, she patted his arm, then turned to look at Wen Yiran.

Wen Yu opened his mouth, but couldn’t make any sound.

Behind her back, Wen Yiran was also looking at her, and when she saw her turn her head, there was a proud smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chi Zhengzheng looked at him and took a deep breath: “Wen Yiran! Can you stop being narcissistic?” I’ll tell you again, I don’t like you. I don’t like you at all. I used to be blind and muddled. Now I’m awake. Seeing you makes me feel bored. How could I like you? I beg you not to be so narcissistic, can you stay away from me?”

The smile at the corner of Wen Yiran’s mouth froze, and he looked at her in disbelief.

Wen Yu was also taken aback, looking closely at her who was in his arms.

Chi Zhengzheng seemed to be about to finish saying what she was holding in her heart at once, and continued: “Seriously, even if every man in this world were dead, I wouldn’t like you, such a narcissistic, cocky, short-lasting and lacking in quality man! Also, don’t mock Wen Yu anymore. Every time you mock him, I think you are like a fool. You can’t even compare a strand of Wen Yu’s hair. Who was the one who gave you the confidence to make you so proud?”

The phrases “short-lasting and lacking in quality” were back, and she even added “narcissistic and cocky” to it.

Wen Yiran’s breathing became rapid, his eyes widened, and he looked at her in disbelief.

Wen Yu was taken aback, but then the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

There was some distance between Wen Yiran and them, therefore, her voice wasn’t small, not far away, Wen Sisi heard it all.

The corners of her mouth twitched and she silently covered her face.

Uh, a moment of silence for her cousin Wen Yiran.

She had long learned how poisonous Chi Zhengzheng’s mouth could be, and today it was her cousin’s turn…

Not far away, Chi Zhengzheng, who was done scolding, took a deep breath and said the last sentence.

“So, Wen Yiran, please get to know yourself better, be less narcissistic, be more self-aware, and stay away from Wen Yu and me, could you? ”

Could you?

Could you?

Could you?

These words echoed in Wen Yiran’s mind, like a big stick, a stick that knocked him dizzy and almost unstable.

When Chi Zhengzheng was done speaking, she looked at Wen Yu: “Let’s go.”

She didn’t forget that she was still wearing a house of Wangjiang Manor around her neck!

For a person like Wen Yiran, she actually didn’t want to talk nonsense with him, after all, every time she saw him, she sighed at the original owner – what kind of blindness was it?

Even if you didn’t know the plot of the original novel, Wen Yu, who was so good-looking and so silently considerate and always appeared when she needed it most, the one who beat the proud and narcissistic Wen Yiran?

But when Wen Yiran provoked Wen Yu, she couldn’t stand it.

The person I had a crush on, such a perfect person, why the f*ck was he using words to discredit him?

Yes, in Chi Zhengzheng’s opinion, whatever Wen Yiran said about Wen Yu was discredit and slander! It was jealousy!!

Facing her gaze, Wen Yu came back to his senses, his pursed lips raised higher and higher, and his eyes were showing endlessly gentleness, like the frozen ice that melted instantly.

He slowly spoke: “Okay.”

And then, he gently held her hand and walked towards the car parked not far away.

Behind his back, Wen Yiran’s body flashed, and he was almost hit to the ground. He stared at the backs of the two of them and gritted his teeth.

Wen Sisi walked over, with a careful voice: “Brother Yiran…”

 “Get lost-” Wen Yiran waved at her and said angrily.

Immediately, he angrily walked away in the other direction.

Wen Sisi curled her lips but didn’t chase after him.

At this moment, Wen Yiran was like a cannonball, why should she follow him to be scolded?

Her eyes looked in the direction that Chi Zhengzheng and Wen Yu left, and she couldn’t help grinning, but she cursed under her breath –

“Chi Zhengzheng, if you ruin Lao Tzu‘s birthday party, you have to make up to Lao Tzu later!” (t/n: Lao Tzu is an arrogant way of saying I/me)

Chi Zhengzheng sat in the passenger seat, next to Wen Yu who was in the driver’s seat.

The car wasn’t on yet, and the atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Chi Zhengzheng just burst out straightforwardly and felt very pleased, but after calming down, she thought of Wen Yu who was next to her, the root of her ears slowly became red, her face also slowly turned red…

Ah, she was so rough and so vicious just now, wasn’t she too unladylike ah?

Would Wen Yu… like her if she was like this?

She covered her face and stammered: “That… I’m actually… Actually, not like this, it’s just… it’s just that he’s such a nuisance…”

 Wen Yu didn’t say anything.

Chi Zhengzheng’s heart thumped.

It was over, Wen Yu really didn’t like her like this!

Woo woo woo, she burst out so straightforwardly, was the consequence the crematorium?

“I’ll never do it again…” Chi Zhengzheng’s voice was mosquito-like and her head hang down.

Wen Yu still didn’t make a sound.

She couldn’t help but turn her hand-covered face sideways toward Wen Yu, her fingers slowly opened two slits, and her gaze… happened to meet Wen Yu’s smiling pair of eyes which were looking at her.

 Huh?

“Chi Zhengzheng.” Wen Yu said suddenly

“Huh?” Chi Zhengzheng looked at him.

 “Let go of your hand.” Wen Yu said.

“Oh…” Chi Zhengzheng slowly let go of her hands and showed her somewhat red cheeks.

Her fair cheeks were a shy peachy-pink color, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

She obviously felt that Wen Yu’s pupils shrank, and his eyes became sharper, with… aggressiveness?

She blinked, and the aggressiveness in Wen Yu’s eyes disappeared, only the bottomless darkness as if it was just an illusion.

And then slowly, he raised his hand, gently rubbed her head, his voice was very soft: “Chi Zhengzheng, I like it, no matter how you are, I like it.”

It wasn’t just that he liked her, but that he was suppressing the beast in his heart, he didn’t dare to let it out indulgently, because… it would scare her.

Chi Zhengzheng: “…” Huh?

She blinked, her big clear eyes looked straight at him and her red ears moved slightly.

So he liked it?

Was it that type of like?

 “Chi Zhengzheng.” Wen Yu spoke again.

This time his voice was hoarse, but this hoarseness was different from before. It seemed to be suppressing something, with a hint of… ambiguity?

His eyes were even more terrifying as if he was about to eat her in one bite.

When she heard Wen Yu just now call her “Zhengzheng”, he didn’t know why he lowered his voice and called her “Chi Zhengzheng”. There was a unique warmth that belonged to just them.

Umm… anyway, it made Chi Zhengzheng blush.

She didn’t hold back, she raised her hand and covered her face again, this time showing her big watery eyes, and as she looked at Wen Yu: “Huh? What’s wrong?”
