Chapter 89 Greeting the Boss in Pajamas
Su Yingxue slowly woke up; she had slept for two hours.
After waking up, she lay lazily in bed and casually picked up her phone to browse.
Suddenly, a news report about a terrorist attack on South Bank Road came into view.
A picture in the news made her heart clench.
The picture clearly shows Tan Zhengchu's iconic Huawei car.
The car body was severely deformed, the surrounding area was a mess, flames and thick smoke intertwined, the scene was like a living hell.
The visuals are incredibly impactful; every detail feels like a heavy hammer blow to Su Yingxue's heart.
Su Yingxue sat up in alarm, a look of fear flashing in her eyes, her breathing becoming rapid.
Her hands trembled slightly as she quickly dialed Tan Zhengchu's number, but no one answered.
She refused to give up and dialed again and again, but all she got in response was the monotonous beeping sound.
Her face grew increasingly pale, and she was extremely anxious. "No, I have to go to the scene."
She muttered to herself as she threw back the covers, her movements as she got out of bed appearing somewhat flustered.
Wearing pajamas and slippers, Su Yingxue clutched her car keys tightly and hurriedly ran to the garage.
Just then, a maid saw her and hurriedly asked, "Madam, what's wrong? Why are you running out in your pajamas?"
Su Yingxue continued walking as if she hadn't heard anything.
The maid called out from behind, "Madam, you should at least change your shoes!"
Su Yingxue ignored him, her only thought was to find Tan Zhengchu as soon as possible.
As soon as Su Yingxue ran to the square in front of the main building, she heard a huge roar.
She looked up and saw a small car slowly come to a stop.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Tan Zhengchu jumped down from it, his movements agile and incredibly handsome.
His hair was a little messy, but that only added to his unruly charm.
Su Yingxue's eyes instantly reddened, and she ran towards Tan Zhengchu without hesitation.
Then she hugged him tightly, her voice trembling with tears: "I'm so glad you're alright, I was so scared."
At this moment, the third brother also jumped off the car.
Seeing Su Yingxue's attire, he chuckled and teased, "Sister-in-law, it's quite unique of you to greet the boss in your pajamas!"
Tan Zhengchu ignored the third brother's teasing. He looked at Su Yingxue, who was only wearing pajamas, and frowned slightly.
He quickly took off his coat and gently draped it over her shoulders, his eyes filled with concern: "Why did you come out dressed like that? Don't do that again, it's so cold! What if you get sick?"
Su Yingxue gripped Tan Zhengchu's arm tightly, her voice trembling with tears, and said, "I saw on the news that your car was blown up, and I thought something had happened to you."
Tan Zhengchu spoke up before the third brother could, saying, "Don't listen to those news reports, they're all fake. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine."
Su Yingxue frowned, her eyes filled with doubt.
She muttered to herself, "Did I really see it wrong? The cars and the scene in the news looked so real. Was I just too nervous and saw it wrong? Or is the news fake?"
She looked at Tan Zhengchu and the third brother, her eyes full of questions.
Tan Zhengchu remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips, as if nothing had happened.
The third brother's eyes darted around, glancing at Tan Zhengchu one moment and looking elsewhere the next, not daring to meet Su Yingxue's gaze.
Tan Zhengchu knew in his heart that this matter was too dangerous, and he absolutely could not let Su Yingxue know the truth, otherwise she would live in constant fear.
He deliberately acted relaxed, patted Su Yingxue on the shoulder and said, "Honey, those media outlets just like to create sensationalism. They'll make up any fake news just to grab attention. Don't be fooled by them."
The third brother opened his mouth, about to speak.
Tan Zhengchu glared at him fiercely, his eyes full of warning.
The third brother pursed his lips helplessly and swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
In the end, he could only shut his mouth in frustration, thinking to himself, "The boss doesn't want his wife to worry, but how long can he keep this a secret? This matter will be exposed sooner or later."
Seeing the two people's strange reactions, Su Yingxue's doubts deepened.
She always felt that things weren't that simple.
The third brother looked at Tan Zhengchu, feeling utterly helpless.
He knew all too well his boss's tendency to only report good news and not bad; if he said anything more, he might get a scolding.
Well, he could only swallow those words and mutter to himself, "Boss, you'd better keep it from your wife, or something bad will happen."
Su Yingxue felt very comfortable wearing Tan Zhengchu's coat.
The warmth was like the winter sun shining on her, cozy and comforting, penetrating deep into her heart, filling her with peace of mind.
The coat was just too big, wrapping her up completely.
It looked just like a little kid who had stolen an adult's clothes; it was incredibly funny.
Tan Zhengchu looked at her, his eyes full of smiles.
He gently put his arm around Su Yingxue's shoulder, and the two walked towards the villa.
When they walked together, the atmosphere was so sweet it was like honey flowing from a honeycomb, filling the air around them.
The three returned to the villa.
As soon as Su Yingxue entered the living room, her gaze fell on Tan Zhengchu's dirty shirt.
She frowned and scolded, "Zhengchu, look at your shirt! It's so dirty! Go change into something else; it must be so uncomfortable wearing this."
Tan Zhengchu looked down and replied with a smile, "Yes, it is quite dirty. I'll go change it right away."
As he spoke, he turned and walked upstairs, leaving Su Yingxue and the third brother alone in the living room.
The third brother's gaze followed Tan Zhengchu and Su Yingxue, his eyes filled with envy.
He thought to himself, "The relationship between my boss and his wife is truly enviable. When will Qianqian and I be able to be that sweet?"
Just as he was thinking this, he looked up and found Su Yingxue staring at him.
Feeling a little embarrassed, I scratched my head, trying to suppress the awkwardness.
Su Yingxue looked at the third brother, a slight smile playing on her lips, and teased, "Third brother, your expression gives you away. Are you thinking about Qianqian? How have you two been lately? Anything fun happening?"
The third brother paused for a moment, then grinned and replied somewhat embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law, what could I possibly be thinking about? Hehe, I just couldn't help thinking about her."
Well, we're just average, nothing special, but I find it quite interesting.
Su Yingxue raised an eyebrow. She was very perceptive and immediately sensed the subtle tension between the two.
The third brother paced back and forth in the living room a few times, as if encouraging himself.
Finally, he stopped in front of Su Yingxue, scratched his head, and said with a hint of shyness, "Sister-in-law, there's something I'd like to ask you."
Su Yingxue asked curiously, "Hey, why are you being so polite today? What's up? Tell me quickly."
