Master Duan’s Beloved Wife: A Lovely Spendthrift - Chapter 21

“Mr. Duan, bad news!” Duan Weiqi’s another special assistant Feng Yu, with a grim look on his face, suddenly appeared at the door of the tea room and reported to Duan Weiqi.

“Mr. Jin made a call. He said he would undersell all his stocks if you did not answer the phone.”

This bad news increased Duan Weiqi’s anger. Having no time to question He Yueyu, he turned around in a rush and left the tea room with heavy steps.

He had made a decision that he would not let He Yueyu leave him in any case, even if she loved Ling Xiaoran the most.

She belonged to him, and could only belong to him in her whole life.

If she dared to leave him for Ling Xiaoran, he would deal with him at all costs.

He Yueyu, who did not know the truth, looked at his stiff back and felt distressed with her eyes turning red. She thought she was the reason causing such a heavy blow to the company.

To make Duan Weiqi withdraw the lawsuit, Jin Moli’s father threatened him to undersell his stocks. This really went too far. Duan Weiqi became emaciated these days, with his face thinner and eyehole hollowed deeply.

His health would be ruined if he continued like this. So she decided to do something for him.

“Aunt Mei, this is Yueyu!”

She thought for a long time and finally figured out what she could do. She intended to make… no, no no, to buy tonics for her beloved Weiqi.

But before doing this, she had to consult Aunt Mei about what kind of tonics were good for Weiqi.

“Oh, my lady, how come you did not come back home? Three young masters all missed you so much…”

“Eh, Aunt Mei, I’ll spend a few more days abroad before going back. Could you please tell me what tonic are good for people staying up late?”

In those days, Duan Weiqi stayed up late almost every day, and also worked in holidays.

However, she, as his assistant, was ordered to work and rest on time. He could only sleep for three hours on average every day, which distressed her.

But she could do nothing to help him except for quietly caring for him.

In the past, when her three brothers stayed up late working, Aunt Mei would stew nutritious soup for them and keep them healthy.

“A lot of tonics are proper, such as Fish Soup with Pachyrhizua Angulatus, Lean pork Soup with Lotus Seeds and Lily Bulbs, Pork Kindly Stewed with the Bark of Eucommia…”

“Oh…” He Yueyu recorded the names on the note pad with her fountain pen, and decided to buy these tonics in the most famous Tonic Diet Store later.

“Eh, my lady, do you often stay up late these days? It’s not good for girls to… ” Aunt Mei fussed.

He Yueyu rolled her eyes, “Not me, it’s one of my friends…”

Aunt Mei always cared for her too much.

“Mrs. Mei, time to have an injection…” A clear female voice came to Yueyu’s ear through the telephone receiver at the moment, then was Aunt Mei’s voice.

“Wait a sec, sorry, I’m on the phone…”

He Yueyu immediately asked with anxiety, “Aunt Mei, what’s the matter with you? How come the nurse are giving you an injection? You got ill?”

“Just a minor illness, it doesn’t matter. Don’t worry, my lady. People always suffer some illness when getting old…”

“Aunt Mei, which hospital are you in? Are you admitted to a first-class ward? Are there best doctors and nurses taking care of you?” He Yueyu asked several questions continuously.

“Yes, yes, your eldest brother insisted on making me stay in the first-class ward of Health General Hospital. It’s just a minor illness. I should not spend so much money on it…” Aunt Mei talked endlessly about spending too much money.

“You must take a good rest and some nourishment to regain your health!” He Yueyu repeatedly advised Aunt Mei, who raised her when she was young, like a big momma. Aunt Mei was the second mother in her mind.

Duan Weiqi finally solved the consequences caused by Jin Moli framing up He Yueyu. He withdrew the lawsuit against Jin Moli, and Jin Moli’s father had to compensate for the loss caused to the company due to this event.

They also reached an agreement that Jin Moli was forbidden to appear in the company in the future.

At the moment, Duan Weiqi sat down weak and limp, feeling like a puddle of mud.

It was getting dark and lights went on outside the window, but he kept his body unmoved in the dark room.

With the beautiful smile of He Yueyu occurring to his mind, he foolishly wondered what she was doing.

He still remembered how she looked when she talked with Ling Xiaoran on the phone in high spirit, and the intimate tone she used to say “I love you most” to Ling Xioran.

All of a sudden, he sneered in the dark.

How foolish he was! Even though he knew that woman’s heart was partially occupied by another man, he still crazily wanted to possess her.

He wanted to possess her, not only her body, but also her identity.

With a malicious and insidious look appearing in his bright eyes, he decided to make her totally owned by him.

He suddenly stood up and left his office, then directly bought the top-one diamond ring from a jewelry store and a large bunch of red roses from a flower shop.

When he went back home and opened the door, He Yueyu rushed to him like a gust of wind, “Weiqi, you’re back. Eh? What beautiful flowers, is it for me?”

She looked at the bunch of flowers in his hand with her sparkling eyes. He never sent flowers to her before, so she expected it a little bit.

He gave the bunch of flowers to her, “Yes, I bought it for you!”

“Really! Thank you!” He Yueyu rejoiced with wild excitement, then stood on tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek, “I know you love me most, how beautiful… ”

She fondled admiringly the flowers, “Where should I put them?”

“Yueyu… ” He held her shoulders and called her name in a low voice.

“Uh?” He Yueyu raised her eyebrows and could not help holding her breath when catching the sight of the look in his eyes.

She wondered what made him send her flowers and look at her with such intoxicating eyes.

“Yueyu… ”

He suddenly held her shoulders, with eyes blurred, “recently I feel my house was too big, so is my bank deposit. I was always invited to some parties, but I usually brought no date, so… ”

He saw He Yueyu listened carefully with her eyes becoming brighter, “I think I need one person to make my house warmer, help me spend my bottomless supply of money, accompany me as Mrs. Duan when others call me Mr. Duan… ”

“Weiqi… ”

“So, Miss He Yueyu… Will you marry Duan Weiqi, and be his legal wife?”

She was stunned by how he proposed to her. As a girl having countless wealth, spoiled like a princess, regarded as the fortunate lady by her friends, she had owned too many good things in her life. But she didn’t realize the real happiness and satisfaction until love came to her.

Almost without thinking, she threw herself into his arms with her hands around his robust waist.

She sniffed the fascinating smell from his body, “I certainly forgot to tell you that I wanted to be the hostess of the house long long ago, and I eagerly wish to spend all the money in your bank, and… ”

She raised her beautiful face, “I have coveted the title of Mr. Duan for a long time!”

Duan Weiqi lowered his head and looked at her lovely face, feeling his heart completely melted.

Then he put a pretty ring on her thin finger, just like belaying his love in this life.

He decided not to bother about the relationship between she and Ling Xiaoran anymore only if she tamely stayed by his side as Mrs. Duan.

“Weiqi… ”
