Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2544: Chapter 348

Wen Ziyang felt a little heartache for his own little sister.

But he only kept it in his heart. His handsome face wore a warm, gentle smile as he raised his brows and said, "No problem, this kind of small matter your brother can handle. I’ll give it to him today."

"Bro."

Wen Qinghuan bit her lips, her eyes filled with hesitation.

"Anything else?"

Wen Ziyang asked with a smile.

"How about I draw a portrait for each of Feng Yize and the others too?"

"Sure, they’re getting a bargain, having my genius-artist sister draw for them."

"Sister Momo saw this portrait before too." Wen Qinghuan softly explained the reason. She only painted a portrait of Chu Junming, and was afraid it would cause misunderstandings.

It wasn’t that she was afraid people would know she had feelings for Chu Junming.

She was afraid of ruining the brotherhood between Chu Junming and Feng Yize. Qinghuan was smart and kind; she knew that with Feng Yize liking her, her feelings for Chu Junming could only ever be a bitter one-sided crush.

She didn’t want to hurt anyone.

Chu Junming had no interest in her, and there was no way he’d hurt his sworn brother because of her. In the end, it might only earn his disgust.

Saying she wasn’t sad would be a lie.

This was the first time she’d ever fallen for a man.

The bitterness spread through her chest. Her body was pulled into Wen Ziyang’s arms for a comforting hug. He lightly patted her head and smiled, "You just need to focus on painting. I’ll help you deliver them."

"But, not now. For now don’t think about anything. Go back to your room and change clothes first, we’ll go see the studio."

Wen Qinghuan wanted to open her own studio, and Wen Ziyang, this sister-obsessed maniac, overbearingly took care of everything—decorating the studio and all the preliminary procedures—for her. He wouldn’t even allow Mo Ziye and the others to show their support.

Just like Gu Kai back in the day, he was afraid that if they did too much, he wouldn’t be the "best brother" anymore.

Everyone was speechless about this, but they stopped fighting him over it.

The studio’s decoration and all related matters had been completed yesterday. Today he was taking Qinghuan there for a walkthrough, and if there was anything she wasn’t satisfied with, they could tweak it a bit.

Of course, the most important thing was to give her a surprise.

Qinghuan nodded, the smile on her small face turning bright and radiant. "Of course the studio comes first. I’ve been looking forward to it for so long, I can finally meet my studio."

Wen Ziyang said proudly, "Our cousins still don’t know anything yet. After you’ve seen it, we’ll tell them."

"Sister Momo and Ye Zhan will be back at noon today."

"Mm, I know."

The siblings chatted as they went downstairs. Qinghuan went back to her room to change, while Ziyang took the portrait back to his own room.

Once inside, he unfolded Chu Junming’s portrait again and looked at it for a while, then took out his phone and dialed Chu Junming’s number.

A moment later, Chu Junming’s gentle voice came through. "Hello, Ziyang."

"When do you have time? I want to send you something."

Wen Ziyang got straight to the point, with no fake pleasantries.

After the competition ended, Chu Junming and the others were still in the group chat, no one had kicked them out. It counted as everyone tacitly accepting these outsiders.

"I’m at Haochen all day today. What are you sending me?" At the end, there was a hint of amusement in Chu Junming’s tone.

Staring at his portrait, Wen Ziyang pressed his tongue against his lower jaw and said mysteriously, "You’ll know when the time comes."

At the airport, Ye Zhan held Momo’s hand as they walked out of security. His secretary was already waiting there.

Because he’d been delayed a few days by the trip back to the Imperial City, Ye Zhan had been looking through documents the whole way home. Momo sat quietly beside him, admiring the way he looked when he was focused on work.

Ye Zhan lifted his head from the documents and met Momo’s gentle, intent gaze. He couldn’t help reaching out to rub her head, the corners of his lips hooking up as he asked, "Is it boring?"

"Not at all. I like watching you work. You keep going, don’t mind me."

When Momo saw him close the file, she thought he was going to put work aside to talk with her, and quickly reached out to stop his hand.

Ye Zhan chuckled and caught her hand, wrapping it in his palm. His other hand still closed the file as he teased, "I’m not some muddle-headed emperor, what are you worried about? After I finish this one, I’ll move on to the next."

"..."

Momo pouted. She’d misunderstood, and he had to laugh this hard?

"So annoying, go focus on your work."

Momo pushed Ye Zhan away with a mock glare. The secretary was still driving up front—did this man not care about his own image at all?

The secretary silently expressed that he was very focused on driving and absolutely did not dare eavesdrop on his boss and his girlfriend flirting in the back. From the moment he got in the car, he’d turned his ears off.

Ye Zhan wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her against his chest. With one hand flipping through the documents, he said solemnly, "As long as you don’t distract me, I can concentrate."

Momo was speechless. She was the one being held hostage in his arms, and he actually said she was the one distracting him.

How had she ever thought this man was all gentle grace and a gentleman like warm jade?

"I need to go to the hospital and get my eyes checked."

"What’s wrong with your eyes, do they hurt?"

Ye Zhan didn’t understand that Momo’s words were just her inner thoughts slipping out. He thought her eyes were really uncomfortable.

He immediately put down the file, his big hand cupping her cheek as he asked with concern, "Momo, which eye hurts, hmm?"

Momo blinked. Seeing him so anxious about her made her heart feel warm and a little moved.

She let out two mischievous chuckles, brushed his hand away, and said, "Nothing hurts."

"Then why do you need your eyes checked?"

Ye Zhan frowned. The usually sharp and shrewd Young Master Ye actually had a confused moment.

Momo arched a slender brow, her smile fading into haughty sass. "Of course I need to check what’s wrong with my eyes, that I actually thought you were a gentleman like warm jade back then."

"..."

There seemed to be a laugh from the front.

Or maybe it was just her imagination.

When Ye Zhan glanced forward, he only saw his secretary’s shoulders trembling slightly.

Ye Zhan’s briefly tensed heart relaxed again. He curved his lips and said, "If you’ve got more to say, say it all at once."

"That’s all."

Momo shook her head. That was as far as her thoughts had gone.

Ye Zhan hummed. "Then I’ll help you add on?"

"Sure, you definitely know yourself better than I do." Momo smiled charmingly. She was curious to hear how he’d evaluate himself.

Up front, the secretary silently pitied Miss Mo. How could Little Red Riding Hood beat the Big Gray Wolf? His boss was all righteous coolness and unmatched brains and methods when it came to business.

As for the rest...

Ye Zhan let out a low laugh and said to Momo, "Don’t you also think that in the daytime I’m all proper and gentlemanly, and at night I’m a total beast in a suit?"
