I Married the Male Lead of a CP-free Novel

Chapter 46 — Welcome reception

Chi Zhengzheng was reading a book.

She was lying on the sofa with the book in front of her while Wen Yu was also nestled on the sofa holding his laptop.

Liuzhu was originally in the middle, but Wen Yu felt he was an eyesore and kicked him to the floor.

“Woof!” Liuzhu barked at Wen Yu feeling unhappy and then jumped up again, this time he rested on Chi Zhengzheng’s shoulder, not allowing Wen Yu to kick him.

Sure enough, Wen Yu glanced at him coldly and then stopped paying attention to him.

Liuzhu wagged his tail feeling proud of himself and lay down next to Chi Zhengzheng.

After a while, Wen Yu said: “Zheng Ye will be back tomorrow, we’ll be holding a welcome reception for him tomorrow.”

After a pause, he said: “You should also come along.”

“Huh?” Chi Zhengzheng was taken aback.

She was confused as to why she had to go, but Wen Yu thought she was confused as to who Zheng Ye was.

So, Wen Yu explained: “Zheng Ye is my former classmate. He has been helping me deal with affairs abroad in the past few years. Excluding Secretary Ning and Manager Hao, he can be regarded as my most capable assistant.”

“Oh…” Chi Zhengzheng blinked.

“Zheng Ye is the future heir of the Zheng family, but he has ambitions and he isn’t willing to stop there. He said he was more optimistic about Yu Ding, although the Zheng family is also moving up, the business structure is only so big. The head of the Zheng family is Zheng Ye’s father, he can also keep going, so he’s in Yu Ding helping me develop Yu Ding’s future.” Wen Yu said.

Of course, Zheng Ye’s choice is actually very smart.

He obviously saw Wen Yu’s talent doing business. The future of Yu Ding was certainly far from what the Zheng family could be compared to. Compared to going back to guard the Zheng family, Zheng Ye obviously wanted to witness Wen Yu’s business empire, so much so that he was helping add bricks and tiles.

As far as business was concerned, this was an attractive thing for a young man to do.

Moreover, it was beneficial for him to help Wen Yu, at least Yu Ding wouldn’t make things difficult for the Zheng family, when they meet in the business world in the future, the Zheng family can still be taken care of by Yu Ding.

If it weren’t for Zheng Ye’s outstanding ability, Wen Yu wouldn’t be comfortable using him.

Chi Zhengzheng suddenly realized: “Oh~”

She understood very well, how could fewer powerful younger brothers be flocking around the male lead?

If not, that would be unscientific!

If this weren’t a CP-free novel, the male lead would have no shortage of female confidantes around, which was the standard male route.

However, Wen Yu was also quite good to Zheng Ye, he wasn’t a person who liked to socialize, but he was going to hold a welcome reception for him and even pulled himself into a large venue with lots of people.

Tsk tsk.

“Okay, let’s go together then.” Chi Zhengzheng nodded, leaned back down, and continued to flip through the book.

The corners of Wen Yu’s mouth were slightly raised.

Holding a welcome reception for Zheng Ye?

Heh, was he a person with such a relaxed frame of mind?

When Zheng Ye talked about the welcome reception, Wen Yu relentlessly refused, but then Zheng Ye said –

“Brother, you really won’t bring sister-in-law for us to see?”

He was older than Wen Yu but calling him “brother” was a way to address him respectfully.

Sister-in-law?

When Wen Yu heard these words, his heart was inexplicably itchy.

So, he said, “Time and place.”

So like this, Zheng Ye would hold a welcome reception, and Wen Yu would bring Chi Zhengzheng to attend.

Thinking about things in his head, Wen Yu stretched out his hand to pick up the jacket next to him and put it on Chi Zhengzheng’s shoulder. He said: “Don’t catch a cold.”

Chi Zhengzheng subconsciously trembled a bit and shook it off: “I’m hot, it’s already June, so I don’t need to wear a jacket.”

After saying that, she realized it was Wen Yu who put it on himself.

This…

She turned her head to look at Wen Yu, but the other party didn’t have any other reaction. He just lowered his head, picked up the jacket, put it back by her side, and urged: “If it’s cold, remember to put it on. The weather hasn’t completely warmed up yet.”

– He was truly like a father, worrying endlessly.

“Okay…” Chi Zhengzheng answered.

She then couldn’t sit still, she simply looked at the time and stood up: “I have an appointment with Auntie Wang to make some cookies, I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare first.”

After saying that, she smeared oil on her feet and slipped away.

Wen Yu looked at her back and couldn’t help smiling and shaking his head.

She baked lots of small biscuits, there were all bite-size pieces, fruit-flavored, milk-flavored, yogurt-flavored, and all kinds of flavors. Chi Zhengzheng was very satisfied.

“Wen Yu, try it?” She packed some in a box.

She made it all by herself!

Wen Yu looked down. They were all very small, in all kinds of shapes, and they were quite…cute.

It was something that only Chi Zhengzheng could make.

Chi Zhengzheng put it on the coffee table for him and then went to the kitchen to watch the chef cook, feeling very happy.

– Watching what’s like having a professional chef at home.

Chi Zhengzheng: Happy.

Wen Yu reached out and took a small cookie, he didn’t like these, he always felt they were too sweet, but the small cookies made by Chi Zhengzheng weren’t sweet, and… she made them herself!

Lots of “fish” shaped cookies were inside, and Wen Yu ate this shape first. (t/n: 鱼 yú, same sound as Wen Yu’s name)

There are few other shapes, but “fish” was the most abundant.

He ate a piece, took another piece, and then took another piece…

By the time it was lunchtime, the box of cookies was finished.
