Chapter 18 Qin Yanyang Asks for Help
Many people from Dragon and Tiger Hall had stayed up all night to help Yang Fei cover up the truth.
As a result, the underworld of Binhai was shocked, and many people connected to the Chen Family and Dragon and Tiger Hall couldn't sleep.
Yang Fei was unaware of all this. He only returned to the Binjiang Garden Villa a little after ten o'clock at night.
First, he had Ma Zhao drive him to the parking lot outside Binhai University to pick up his car, and then he drove home.
The lights were on in the villa, and when he returned to the garage, sure enough, Qin Yanyang's car was also there.
Yang Fei parked his car and went upstairs, seeing Qin Yanyang sitting on the sofa reading a book.
This reminded Yang Fei of the first time he had seen her.
Back then, she sat earnestly reading a book by the window of a coffee shop, the sunlight hitting her, making her look so pure and touching.
She seemed to really love reading and enjoyed this peaceful and quiet solitude.
So much so that Yang Fei couldn't bear to disturb her.
Qin Yanyang closed her book and looked up at Yang Fei and said, "You're back."
Yang Fei said, "Mm, when did you get back?"
Qin Yanyang replied, "A little after nine, just a short while ago."
Yang Fei smiled and said, "I bought some groceries earlier, planning to cook dinner at home, but then something came up, and I had to go out."
Qin Yanyang nodded, smiling as she said, "You don't need to explain it to me."
Yang Fei was momentarily taken aback before regaining his composure.
Yes, he had indeed been making a point to explain it specifically to her.
"Ahem, well, how about something to eat?" Yang Fei, unsure of what else to say, casually asked.
Qin Yanyang's mouth curved slightly upwards as she smiled and said, "Sure."
Yang Fei had just said it casually and hadn't expected her to agree.
Shouldn't girls be concerned about their figure and avoid eating late at night?
He gazed at Qin Yanyang, and she looked back at him.
From her eyes, he could only see deep anticipation.
"Alright, just wait a moment."
Yang Fei said, then turned around and went downstairs.
He had bought groceries in the afternoon, including beef, so he made braised beef noodles for dinner that night.
When Qin Yanyang was eating, she appeared very elegant, yet her pace was not slow. By the time Yang Fei finished, she had also put down her chopsticks.
Seeing Yang Fei looking at her, Qin Yanyang's face blushed slightly.
It was really too delicious, she couldn't help but eat quickly.
Could it be too embarrassing?
Thinking this, she grabbed a bowl with each hand, ready to clean up.
Yang Fei said, "I'll wash them. You've already taken a shower, and getting your hands dirty again isn't good."
Qin Yanyang was in her pajamas. After returning home and seeing that Yang Fei was not home, she had taken a shower and changed her clothes.
"How could that be okay? You cooked the noodles, so I should wash the dishes, that's only fair," Qin Yanyang argued.
Yang Fei smiled and said, "Girls should try to do less dishes and things like that, it's not good for the skin on your hands. Besides, as a husband, it's only right for me to let my wife do less housework and spoil her a bit."
Hearing him use the terms husband and wife made something stir inside Qin Yanyang.
Yet she still insisted, saying, "Even if we are husband and wife, there should be mutual respect, mutual …"
"Mutual respect in terms of personality and character, sure, but being overly polite about such small household matters is just being strangers," Yang Fei gently said.
Qin Yanyang was taken aback and released his hand.
Yang Fei said with a smile, "Was I too hasty?"
Qin Yanyang quickly shook his head, "No, it's... it's me who wasn't thoughtful enough. You're right, since we're married and genuinely don't dislike each other and want to try to get along, we should act naturally."
Yang Fei smiled and said, "That's right."
As he spoke, he stood up to go wash the dishes in the kitchen.
Suddenly, Qin Yanyang's gaze flashed as he looked at his collar, "Are you hurt?"
Yang Fei was startled, then looked down and saw the bloodstain on his collar and cursed himself for his oversight.
"I'm sorry, I was so busy I forgot about it. I found a job today, just nearby at the Li Xuantong Medical Hall as a consulting physician. This afternoon, an injured person came in, and while dressing his wounds, I must have accidentally gotten some blood on me, I'll go take a shower and change right away."
It was indeed unsanitary and impolite to come home wearing clothes stained with a patient's blood; he had been neglectful.
Qin Yanyang's eyes lit up slightly.
Regarding this man she had married willingly after a blind date, without much fondness, she hadn't held great expectations.
Unexpectedly, he had found a job in a big city like Binhai within just a day, and at Li Xuantong Medical Hall no less.
Although it was a private medical hall, Li Xuantong was a renowned doctor in Jiangnan. Being hired by Li Xuantong Medical Hall meant her husband had genuine medical skills at least.
"It's fine, I'm not that fussy," Qin Yanyang saw that Yang Fei seemed to feel a bit guilty, so she quickly said. ThegenuinearticleresidesonM|V|L&EMPYR.
Seeing her say this, Yang Fei felt relieved. It was good that he had already found a job; otherwise, explaining this blood might have been problematic.
He had been careless. He needed to be more careful about such matters in the future.
After washing the dishes and going upstairs, Qin Yanyang was still in the living room.
Thinking about today's events and what his master had said about finding a solution to his problems through Qin Yanyang, Yang Fei became somewhat eager.
China truly was the most mysterious country globally; in terms of martial artists, it probably had the most in the world.
Today, his first encounter with the martial world had him meeting so many, including not a few masters of dark energy.
If he met an internal master with deep Inner Strength, he would have to mobilize his True Qi, which might likely push him past the critical danger point and trigger his hidden ailment.
Therefore, he wanted to find a solution to his health issues sooner.
According to his master, Qin Yanyang was his chance, so he needed to get to know her better and make more contact.
Yang Fei was pondering how to break the ice with this seemingly approachable but inherently aloof and beautiful wife when Qin Yanyang spoke first, "Yang Fei, could you do me a favor tomorrow afternoon?"
Yang Fei felt delighted inside.
This was like someone offering a pillow when one wanted to sleep.
Just as he was thinking about how to get closer to her quickly, the opportunity had presented itself.
"You tell me," Yang Fei was secretly thrilled, yet he kept a calm facade.
Qin Yanyang said somewhat embarrassingly, "Tomorrow is the birthday of an elderly professor, and a colleague has invited me to his celebration. I can't refuse."
Seeing her expression, Yang Fei knew it wasn't that simple and said, "If it's just attending a birthday celebration, although I'm your family, it might not be appropriate for me to go. You must have another reason for wanting me there."
"Yes, the professor has a nephew who is also a teacher at Binhai University. He has been pursuing me, and although I have sternly refused, he is the type of person who won't give up until he's faced with the inevitable, so..." Qin Yanyang didn't hide her true reason.
Yang Fei smiled, "So, bring me along to make him completely give up and stop bothering you in the future."
"Would that be okay?" Qin Yanyang felt a bit embarrassed.
Yang Fei grinned, "It's my duty. We're husband and wife, and if someone else is chasing my wife, how can I just stand by and watch."
Seeing Yang Fei readily agree, Qin Yanyang laughed.
She actually had many ways to make those suitors back off, but she chose this method.
Because she also wanted to understand more about her hastily-wedded husband.
