The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 278
News spread like wildfire in the Heaven Company, from first floor to the topmost floor of the executives. Soon, it spread out to the media and made into headlines.
“The CEO’s Lovely Wife: Pregnant?” This was what the headlines on most of the media.
“The Wife of a Young Tycoon Finally Revealed”
“Young Madam of the Heaven Company Introduced”
Now, it was already known that the City D’s notorious CEO who was rumored to have a secret marriage just recently had now introduced his wife to all of Heaven Company with another nuclear bomb he dropped, announcing that his wife was already pregnant with his wife.
It immediately arouse suspicions regarding this controversy. To think that the scarcely seen CEO whom businessmen both admire and fear would be so open about this joyous event.
To the people who loves to gossip and in love with “love,” the notorious CEO with the looks and background but indifferent to the opposite s.e.x had his ice-hardened heart melt as he fell in love with his rumored wife. However, for those who think otherwise, with a dark mind and jealous heart, this supposed “wife” had seduced the CEO with underhanded means. Added to the fact that the CEO himself said that his wife was already pregnant just fueled their wild minds and their hatred grew.
In a restaurant just across Heaven Company, a little boy sat on his chair looking thoughtful and clever. His back was straight, hands on his l.a.p, and face almost blank. If not because of his eyes that were clear, shining, and lively, one would say that he was a doll.
“Baby, what do you want to eat? Do you want some deserts? Well, you could have though only after eating your meal.” Peizhi attentively asked his son with a gentle hanging on his lips as he scanned through the menu glancing at Longwei from time to time.
“Anything is delicious as long as father is the one who ordered for me.” Longwei cleverly replied. It was the truth though. He was not a picky eater since he remembered. However, if you want to know his true feelings, he does not know which he liked or not.
Peizhi’s eyes sparkled and faced flashed a proud look.
‘My son truly is the most behaved and thoughtful child. Unlike that ungrateful btch.’ As soon as his daughter, October, flashed across his mind, he had on an irritated, dark look. ‘No matter, I’ll finally deal with you.’
Then, a devious smile so small crept on the corner of his lips.
“Daddy?” Longwei called when he noticed the peculiar look his father had. He could not understand what expression, blinking his eyes at him.
“Nothing.” Peizhi immediately removed his dark thoughts as he gave Longwei a pat on his head and smiled, “Let’s order.”
After that, Peizhi ordered the restaurant’s best dishes and ordered parfait to be served after their meal.
During their meal, Peizhi talked a lot of things to Longwei such as asking about his studies, what he was doing during his breaks, where he went, what games he was playing. It was all those sorts of things. Somehow, during their conversation, Longwei asked something that Peizhi had eagerly anticipated.

“Dad, what kind of games does my big sister liked when she was around my age?” He asked.
Peizhi felt like his heart jumped up his throat. He was waiting for his son to mention October in their conversation. This is to not make it obvious that he was being deliberately. Although he felt guilty of using his son, but this thought was immediately overtaken by the urgent matter regarding his business.
‘Yes. What I’m doing right now is for my son’s future too.’ He thought, convincing himself.
“Your big sister is quite the charmer herself. She tends to go out with her mother in the park and play all day long.”
“Oh.” Longwei thoughtfully nodded his head when he noticed his father with a downcast look on his face. “Daddy, is there something wrong?”
Peizhi let out a sad smile and said, “I don’t know where it went wrong. She used to be so energetic, full of life and smiles, and such a bright young kid. But now…”
He let out a sigh as if his heart was aching in pain. He was acting as a father that was heartlessly tossed aside and forgotten by his daughter.
“But what, Daddy?”
“But now…*sigh* never mind. You are still a small child so you would not understand. When you are little older, you will understand me.”
“But I’m not a small child anymore. I’m already 5 years old!” Longwei sternly said with his elegant brows furrowed. He was a little irritated because of the fact that his father treats him like a little kid who only knows how to play.
Hearing this cute argument from his son irrupted a roar of laughter from Peizhi. Then, he looked outside from the window of the restaurant when his phone vibrated on his trouser pocket. He pulled it out. A glint of light flashed across his eyes in a second as soon as he recognized the number. He read the content of the text, replied, and put it on top of the table.
“Mother?” Longwei asked when he saw his father on his phone. When he saw him nod, he then thought of something.
“Daddy, can I visit big sister?”
“Why ask this all of a sudden?”
“I…I just missed her.” It was true that he missed his sister. Though he just recently got acquainted with her, he does not feel any discomfort around her; instead, he felt relaxed and warm. The other reason was also because he wanted to fix the somewhat odd relationship his father and sister had.
‘If Daddy and big sister is close, that would mean that she can visit me often at the mansion.’
“Hmm…” Peizhi seemed to be in thought before pointing at the building across the street, saying, “You see that building over there? That’s the company your big sister’s husband, your brother-in-law, works. I hear that your sister is there right now.”
“Really?” Longwei, who usually always smile, now had a bright and eager smile with eyes sparkling. He quickly finished his parfait and wiped his mouth from stains, and jumped down from his seat. “Daddy, I would like to visit my sister there. Can I?”
“What? You want to go visit her now?”
“…yes.” Longwei nodded after a short pause. He looked at his father, a little troubled, since he would be leaving him here just to go to his big sister.
“Do you want me to go there with you?” Peizhi suggested. Though he said this, he never really thought of really doing it since Lexus would most probably block him just by the entrance of the building. That would just be too embarrassing.
Longwei shook his little head and looked straight at Peizhi with a serious look on his face. He even straightened his back more and chin raised, to try and look tall before his father.
“No, I can do it myself. I will only ask Ben (the driver) to help me cross the street.” He said with finality before heading out of the restaurant.
Peizhi looked at the little back walking further and further away from him.
‘Yes, I’ll be counting on you son. I hope you’ll do well.’ Peizhi thought, looking really pleased at himself. With this, the first phase of that btch’s fall is done.
