 Chapter 34: Wife, Your Husband is Here

Nian Lian stood at the door, his dark eyes flicking over the hands of the two people inside who were holding each other. His expression was cold and his heart was in turmoil.

"... "

Outside the door, Manager and Lu Zhui were both there, looking at the scene inside, but no one dared to speak.

The atmosphere froze, almost turning into ice.

"Lu Zhui."

The man shook, immediately understanding, and stood in front of the manager, not letting him interfere with the conversation between the three.

The door was closed.

Nian Lian strode forward with his long legs, his tall and slender figure towering over the two sitting figures in front of him.

Ning Qing trembled with her lips, wanting to say something, but Nian Lian spoke first.

He glanced at the dishes on the table, his face filled with a cold and distant air, as if warning strangers to stay away.

"You seem to be in a good mood, Mr. Yan."Yan Sichen naturally let go of Ning Qing and placed his hand, which was adorned with a delicate watch, on the edge of the table, lightly grasping it.

He tilted his head slightly and met Nian Lian's gaze.

His tone was not inferior.

"Mr. Nian is also quite young."

Nian Lian grabbed a chair and pulled it over, sitting down and crossing his long legs naturally, leaning back against the back of the chair.

"Mr. Yan is an old acquaintance of my wife, so you are naturally my friend as well."

"... "

He lit a cigarette, holding it between his fingers, and exuded an air of authority and coldness like an emperor.

Ning Qing leaned towards him, but she could not feel any warmth or friendliness coming from him.

His cold eyes glanced over her face, and Ning Qing unconsciously lowered her eyelids to avoid his gaze.

The coldness emanating from Nian Lian became even more frigid.

"What were you two talking about just now? Speak up and let me listen."

His arrogant attitude made Yan Sichen unsure how to react for a moment.

Ning Qing disliked his attitude, her clear eyes filled with a chill. "Don't talk to us in that tone."

"Us?"

The tone lifted slightly, and Ning Qing's back tightened.

Nian Lian sneered, "Wife, have you mistaken the person? Your husband is here."

"... "

Ning Qing trembled uncontrollably, not because of the sweet term "wife" but because she heard his threat and warning.

The cigarette butt burned halfway, the ash fell on the wooden ground, shattered into dust, and disappeared.

A thin, cold smile hung on Nian Lian's lips. "No more to say? Then come with me."

He changed his face so quickly, stood up, crossed the distance, and grabbed Ning Qing's arm with a rough, merciless movement.

Ning Qing's face turned pale.

Yan Sichen suddenly stood up and grabbed Nian Lian's arm, firmly stopping him. "Nian Lian!"

"... "

"You hurt her!"

Nian Lian's smile became even stronger, and a slight madness flickered in his deep and beautiful features, even a bit twisted.

"She is my woman, and whether she is hurt or not is my concern. Does Yan Young Master have nothing better to do than interfere with my wife?"

Ning Qing was shocked. He... how could he say such offensive words!

"Nian Lian, what are you saying?"

While feeling suffocated and wronged, tears welled up in her eyes.

"In your eyes, is everyone who gathers together for that kind of shameful thing?" Ning Qing gave a wry smile, "That's right, if you even doubt your own wife, who else can you trust?"

He said harshly, "If you really consider yourself my wife, you should know your place."

Ning Qing retorted, "Did you consider yourself my husband when you were having numerous affairs outside?"

Nian Lian clenched his teeth, and anger turned his black pupils red. "Then what do you think of him?"

"A good person," Ning Qing defined firmly, "better than you."

"... "

Nian Lian closed his eyes tightly.

He knew that if he continued speaking, he would not be able to control himself.

When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with coldness.

He looked at Yan Sichen, who remained silent, and said maliciously, "He was meeting with several women in a hotel in the morning, and now he is meeting you here. Ning Qing, you have excellent taste."
