The Ancient Miss Transmigrates into a CEO’s Wife

Chapter 84

Shen Yin entered the bedroom, and Zhengzheng was lying on the bed with her eyes open. When she saw Shen Yin come to the bedside, she said in a childish voice, "Mommy's face is red."

Shen Yin touched her own face and said shyly, "Mommy just went out. It's very hot outside, and the sun made mommy's face red. What should Zhengzheng wear today? Let me find something for Zhengzheng."

Shen Yin went into the dressing room and found a little fisherman's hat in Zhengzheng's wardrobe. She took it in her hand, then grabbed a pair of khaki overalls shorts and a yellow T-shirt.

After dressing Zhengzheng and helping her wash up, when they came out, Xu Xiuhe had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the table.

"We can eat breakfast now."

"Eat food, grow tall, eat meat, get fat," Zhengzheng hummed to herself.

Xu Xiuhe heard her and said, "You can grow tall, but you can't just eat meat. Come and eat some vegetables."

Xu Xiuhe picked up Zhengzheng and put her in the high chair, then pulled out a chair for Shen Yin to sit. They ate the meal quietly. After finishing, when Xu Xiuhe was about to leave, he brazenly asked Shen Yin to kiss him. Shen Yin couldn't refuse and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Call me husband."

Zhengzheng, who was watching from below, looked puzzled and asked, "What is a husband? Zhengzheng also wants mommy to kiss." She stretched out her arms, signaling Shen Yin to pick her up.

"Zhengzheng, you've grown up. Mommy can't carry you anymore," Xu Xiuhe brought up this issue again.

"Wife, don't spoil him. You worked so hard last night, get some rest today."

"Stop." This man still had the nerve to say that.

"Stop, bad daddy," Zhengzheng chimed in, her little expression stern.

Xu Xiuhe just stared at them...

Zhengzheng called him bad, but he could be even worse. An idea crossed his mind, and he looked at Zhengzheng meaningfully, saying, "Yeah, daddy is bad."

Shen Yin didn't understand what Xu Xiuhe meant until later that morning when a furniture company truck stopped in front of Qinghe Villa. That's when Shen Yin realized the meaning behind Xu Xiuhe's look.

A brand new set of children's furniture – a wardrobe, nightstand, but Shen Yin was stunned when she saw the bed. Could Xu Xiuhe not afford a bigger bed? That bed was truly a child's bed. Shen Yin estimated it was only about 1.5 meters long and 1.2 meters wide.

As Shen Yin was directing the movers to take the furniture up to the third floor, her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and was surprised to see "Husband" displayed.

When did she set that contact name? Or was this a scam call?

After much hesitation, Shen Yin answered.

"Wife, the furniture should have arrived."

"Xu Xiuhe?"

"Call me husband," Xu Xiuhe said with a smile from his office, twirling a pen in his hand.

"Why did you buy such a small bed?" It was too small. Did he think Zhengzheng wouldn't grow taller? This bed really opened Shen Yin's eyes.

"Children should sleep in children's beds," Xu Xiuhe replied. He definitely wouldn't admit that he had looked at several options before choosing this one intentionally. He wasn't foolish – if he bought a bigger bed, he might end up having to sleep in it himself. So a small bed it was, only big enough for Zhengzheng.

Shen Yin hung up the phone.

Xu Xiuhe...

Shen Yin was really tired. Last night was exhausting, and she woke up early this morning. Walking was uncomfortable too, and she really wanted to sleep for a bit.

The phone rang again with an unfamiliar number.

"Yin Yin, how have you been after all these years?"

Shen Yin paused, "...Who is this?"

"Yin Yin, don't you remember me? It's Man Man. I've missed you so much these past two years."

"Sorry, I'm not Shen Yin. You have the wrong number," Shen Yin said calmly.

"That's impossible! This is the right number." The woman on the other end questioned her skeptically.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but you really have the wrong number," Shen Yin said before hanging up. She wasn't lying – she truly wasn't the original Shen Yin. Zhou Man was looking for the original owner of this body, not her.

But why did Zhou Man know her phone number? And what was the relationship between Zhou Man and Yang Cui? Why did Zhou Man call her? Question after question came to Shen Yin's mind, and she knew she needed to be more vigilant.

"Boss, do you think this fabric is suitable for making this dress?"

Chen Nuan held up a length of silver fabric and asked.

Shen Yin took the fabric and felt it. It was quite smooth. "Yeah, it'll work. Just tell Jiang Meiyan and the others that this fabric might be a bit tricky to cut and sew, so they should be extra careful."

"Be careful," Zhengzheng imitated Shen Yin's words, making everyone laugh.

Shen Yin held Zhengzheng's hand and started walking up the stairs. Her inner thighs were still uncomfortable, so carrying Zhengzheng up the stairs was a bit difficult.

"Zhengzheng is a little man. Why don't we practice climbing the stairs together?"

Before, either Xu Xiuhe or Shen Yin would carry Zhengzheng up the stairs. But now Zhengzheng could already run on flat ground, so climbing stairs shouldn't be a problem.

Zhengzheng tightly gripped one of Shen Yin's fingers with her hand. "Zhengzheng, slow down. Let's take it one step at a time. Don't try to skip steps, okay?"

Chen Nuan and Li Huanhuan saw them reaching the second floor and commented, "Look, the leading actress from Yanxi Biography is also playing the role of Zhengzheng."

"So young, and she's already earning money for milk powder. Zhengzheng is amazing."

"I wonder why they agreed to let Zhengzheng act, given how wealthy Xu is."

"Who can understand the world of the rich?"

"That precious Zhengzheng is so adorable in the show. I really love her. I wanted to pinch those rosy little cheeks - she probably still has that milky scent. She's too cute, I couldn't control myself."

"Huan Huan, if you can't control yourself, go ahead and pinch her cheeks next time."

At the top floor office of Huanyuan Group, Xu Xiuhe was in a cheerful mood as he called Xiao Li'er.

Xiao Li'er was startled when she saw the caller ID and didn't dare breathe.

"Li'er, why aren't you answering?" Yang Mo reminded her from the side.

Xiao Li'er took a deep breath and answered the call.

"Come in for a bit."

As Xiao Li'er passed by Liu Bo's office, he looked puzzled about why she was being summoned again. He then started blaming himself, feeling that this whole situation was probably his fault.

"About the divorce last time..." Xu Xiuhe had barely started speaking when he saw Xiao Li'er's tears streaming down her face.

"I haven't finished talking. Why are you crying?"

Startled, Xiao Li'er swallowed the rest of her tears.

"The divorce from last time is in the past. I'll give you a raise."

Xiao Li'er was stunned. Was she dreaming? A second ago, she was teetering on the brink of being fired, and now she was getting a raise?

"There's one more thing you still need to think about - what can I do to gain my wife's favor?" As soon as Xu Xiuhe finished speaking, Xiao Li'er felt dejected again.

Mustering her courage, she said, "Boss, could you please stop threatening to fire me all the time? Assistant Liu said that if I get fired, he'll marry me."

"Oh, is that so?" Xu Xiuhe immediately became interested.
