How to trap a beautiful wife

Chu Ci knelt on the bed, put his right hand behind his back reflexively, and stretched out his left hand to take the watch from Chen Xun. The movement was so fast that it could almost be described as snatching.

He turned his back, put on the watch first, and then heaved a long sigh of relief, then turned to face Chen Xun, and said embarrassingly, "I thought I lost it."

Chen Xun didn't seem to notice his abnormality, and his tone was still gentle: "It fell on the ground outside the study, is the strap loose?"

Chu Ci's eyes didn't settle, and he responded indiscriminately: "Maybe."

Chen Xun didn't speak any more, raised Chu Ci's chin, leaned over, and pressed another kiss on his forehead, but this time he stayed longer.

Chu Ci closed his eyes, and his chaotic emotions were miraculously soothed.

"Go to sleep." Chen Xun walked back to his side of the bed and lay down, and turned off the light after Chu Ci fell asleep.

The room was dark, but no one was in the mood to sleep.

Chu Ci lay on the bed, comforting himself with his eyes closed. Judging from Chen Xun's reaction, he probably didn't notice the scar on his wrist. The scar was long and thin, and the color was light, so he wouldn't notice it unless he looked closely.

Thinking of this, Chu Ci's heartbeat slowly calmed down, he opened his eyes, and after adapting to the darkness, he turned his head to look at Chen Xun beside him.

In fact, only an outline can be seen, but Chu Ci feels very at ease.Probably because he stepped on the ground with bare feet just now, he was still a little cold, so he subconsciously approached the heat source.

As soon as Chu Ci moved, Chen Xun, who was already asleep, stopped pretending to be asleep: "Can't sleep?"

Chu Ci said "hmm", with a nasal voice, which sounded like a baby: "I can't sleep."

After being silent for a while, Chen Xun took the initiative to lean over, touched Chu Ci's hand under the quilt, and held it in his palm to warm it up: "Would you like to run around in slippers next time?"

"Don't dare." Chu Ci said, and defended in a low voice, "But I will forget when I am in a hurry."

"No hurries?"

Of course I was in a hurry to find you.

Chu Ci thought in his heart, but he didn't say it out, and just moved closer to Chen Xun.

In the darkness, Chen Xun hooked the corner of his mouth, put a hand on Chu Ci's waist, and pulled him directly into his arms.

When his nose hit Chen Xun's chest, Chu Ci was still a little dazed, wrapped in a familiar breath, making him feel like he was dreaming.

It must have been hit hard, and my nose was a little sore.

Chen Xun took him into his arms: "Is it still cold?"

Chu Ci's voice was as thin as a gnat: "It's not cold anymore."

After a few seconds of silence, Chen Xun asked, "Why are you squatting at the door of the study, why didn't you knock?"

Chu Ci found a comfortable position in his arms, and half closed his eyes: "I'm afraid to disturb you. I heard who you were talking to."

Chen Xun frowned. Although he felt that Chu Ci didn't mean that, but to avoid misunderstanding, he still said, "I'm calling Zhou Ran. The company... has something to do."

Chu Ci hummed: "Well, being your assistant is really hard, and you have to work at night."

Chen Xun thought of another thing: "Did I squat at the door of the study when I couldn't sleep before?"

If he hadn't heard the movement, would Chu Ci have been squatting outside?

Thinking of this, Chen Xun felt a little distressed.

Chu Ci seemed unwilling to answer this question, and buried his head in Chen Xun's shoulder.

This posture was too intimate, and it instantly brought him back to six years ago, when Chen Xun's embrace was always warm, and it was his safe haven.In this embrace, he can pretend that the things in the dream never happened, he can pretend that he is still a child.

Chu Ci bit his lips, holding back the tears that were about to burst into his eyes.

Fearing that Chen Xun would notice, he tried his best to suppress his breathing, but the subtle movements were still magnified infinitely in the silent night.

Chen Xun's heart was tightened by an invisible hand. He didn't ask, but quietly hugged Chu Ci, and waited until Chu Ci's breathing became less chaotic before asking, "Do you want to hear a story?"

"Huh?" Chu Ci raised his head, his hair brushed against Chen Xun's chin.

A little itchy, Chen Xun rubbed his chin on the top of his hair, and asked again.

"What story?" Chu Ci asked, "Can it be played on demand?"

Chen Xun smiled: "I'm afraid not, my brain memory is not that big."

Chu Ci was also amused by his metaphor: "Then do whatever you want."

As long as it's what Chen Xun said, he won't pick it.

Chen Xun calmed down, as if he was thinking of telling a story.After a while, Chu Ci yawned, feeling that he was about to fall asleep without listening to the story, so he urged him: "Have you figured it out yet?"

"Think it over." Chen Xun tightened his arms and hugged Chu Ci even tighter, feeling his chest was burning, "Do you want to listen to "The Little Prince?"

The scenes of the past were uncovered, and Chu Ci's eyes were red again.He replied in a muffled voice, and then closed his eyes in Chen Xun's deep voice.

-

In the next few days, Chu Ci kept carefully observing Chen Xun's reaction.Chen Xun's attitude towards him and the tone of his speech were the same as usual, there was no difference, so Chu Ci was completely relieved.

He thought that Chen Xun probably didn't notice the injury on his wrist.

One afternoon, Chu Ci went to the watch repair shop to change a new watch strap to prevent the pin buckle from loosening again, and the watch did not know where it fell.

After changing the strap, he put the watch back on, tightly covering the scar on his wrist, and let out a long breath.

Passing by a flower shop on the way home, Chu Ci thought of what Chen Xun said, so he went in to have a look.

The flower shop is warmly decorated and the flowers are fragrant, which reminds Chu Ci of his original flower house.

After the accident at home, he couldn't take care of himself, so he didn't have the time to take care of the greenhouse. Those flowers and plants would have withered long ago and turned into dirt and dust.

The store manager is a very cute girl, she came up to her and asked, "What flowers do you want to buy?"

Chu Ci thinks that Chen Xun usually only buys candy snow mountains because he likes them, but he doesn't seem to know what flowers Chen Xun likes.

Seeing him, the store manager looked puzzled: "Who are you giving it to?"

Chu Ci was embarrassed to say that it was for her husband, but thought for a while: "For her boyfriend."

The store manager laughed: "A batch of peonies just arrived today. I haven't had time to display them in the back. Would you like to have a look?"

The store manager walked in, followed by Chu Ci, and his eyes were immediately attracted by a large handful of pink peonies on the operating table.

The buds are very large, with layers of petals, not yet fully bloomed, wrapping the flower core inside.The petals are speckled and have a strange frosted texture.

The store manager followed his gaze: "You have a good eye. This flower has a nice name, it's called Exclusive Memory."

Chu Ci smiled: "Then take this."

He made another request: "Can I do the pruning and flower wrapping myself? I have raised flowers before, so I know a little bit."

"of course can."

In front of the console, Chu Ci picked up the scissors to trim the rhizomes.When I was young, when my grandfather or Chu Rong celebrated his birthday, he would pick the best flowers from the greenhouse, trim and wrap them himself, and send them out as gifts.

The corners of his mouth slowly curved into a smile, and Chu Ci suddenly realized that he didn't object to remembering the past at all, and also realized that this was the first time that Chu Rong appeared in his memory with a smile.

His eyes were a little wet, he stopped what he was doing, faced the air, and called "Mom" softly.

After the flower package was finished, Chu Ci hesitated between taking it home and sending it to Chen Xun's company, and finally decided to send it to Chen Xun's company, but he was embarrassed to deliver it himself, so he added some money to ask the flower shop owner to help. trip.

He didn't want to admit that he wanted to take the opportunity to swear his sovereignty.

In addition, he also left a card with simple blessings written on it.The name of the flower has already expressed his mood, so there is no need to say anything else.

On the way home, Chu Ci kept looking at his phone, and couldn't help but picture Chen Xun's expression when he received the flowers in his mind.

-

DB Corporation.

Not long ago, the lady at the front desk received two instructions from Chen Xun through Zhou Ran:

One is that in the future, if someone sends flowers again, they will not accept them.

Second, if Ji Yao comes over, please ask him to leave immediately without talking nonsense.

The lady at the front desk followed the instructions of the boss, just persuaded the flower delivery boy to leave in the morning, and young master Ji came to the door in the afternoon.

Backed by the boss, the lady at the front desk, who had received Ji Yao's stares before, suddenly became angry. After persuasion to no avail, she called the security guard to "escort" Ji Yao downstairs. After Ji Yao left in a panic, she hurriedly shared it in the group.

Unexpectedly, when he looked up, it was another flower delivery man.

However, unlike the gaudy red roses in the past, this time the flowers are a variety she has never seen before, but they are very warm and healing at first glance.

She confirmed to the sender: "Who is this flower for?"

"To Mr. Chen Xun." The flower shop owner said.

"Who sent it?"

"Mr. Chu." The flower shop owner said, and quickly added when he thought of something, "By the way, he is Mr. Chen's boyfriend."

"Boy friend?!"

The lady at the front desk didn't dare to make her own claims, so she quickly contacted Zhou Ran. After Zhou Ran arrived, she accepted the flowers without saying a word, and turned around to go to Chen Xun's office.

The young lady at the front desk held him back, her expression was so surprised that she couldn't be more surprised: "This Mr. Chu is really..."

This is Chen Xun's private matter, Zhou Ran didn't dare to disclose it without authorization, so he quickly made a gesture of silence: "Don't talk nonsense."

Zhou Ran didn't dare to delay, and walked to Chen Xun's office with the flowers in his arms. The bouquet was very eye-catching, no matter how much he covered it up, it was still seen by many people.

Almost at the same time he entered Chen Xun's office, there were already discussions outside.

You know, besides Ji Yao, many people gave Chen Xun flowers and gifts before, but they didn't even pass the front desk, without exception.

Everyone craned their necks to know who the only exception was.

When Zhou Ran knocked on the door, Chen Xun was looking at Chu Ci's photo.

He had just finished a long meeting and didn't want to get into work right away, so he took out his wallet and looked at Chu Ci's photo during this spare time.

Looking at it, it was inevitable that Chu Ci looked for his watch in a panic a few days ago.

Gently stroking the photo with his fingertips, Chen Xun couldn't help but flicked his fingers on Chu Ci's forehead: "I'm so afraid, do you know?"

In fact, he already knew it, and he could probably guess what Chu Ci had experienced.

He once contacted a hospital in Chicago to obtain information about Chu Ci, but the hospital refused on the grounds of protecting the privacy of patients.

After all, Chu Ci still didn't trust him enough, whether it was six years ago or now.

Chen Xun also sent an email to Professor Smith, who was said to be Chuci's tutor at school.Out of caution, he did not disclose his identity, but said that he was a collector, liked Chu Ci's works very much, and hoped to learn more about the story behind the work "Sunrise on Mont Blanc".

Unfortunately, the email fell into the sea and there was no reply.

Chen Xun sighed, and at this moment there was a knock on the door, he put away his wallet: "Please come in."

The scene in front of him was beyond his expectation. Zhou Ran explained the situation and handed over the flower. Chen Xun saw the card inside the flower at a glance. After he opened it, he saw that it said——

【Send you a spring. 】

Signature is CHUCI.

Although Chen Xun joked that he asked Chu Ci to send flowers, when he actually received them, the feeling was still too wonderful to describe in words, but it was enough to keep him in a good mood for the next week.

"He said he was my boyfriend?"

Zhou Ran swallowed: "That's what the owner of the flower shop said."

Chen Xun raised his eyebrows. Although he was still a little closer to her husband, it was already a great improvement for Chu Ci to admit that he was his boyfriend.

Zhou Ran also handed over a piece of paper: "This is from the flower shop."

Chen Xun glanced and smiled when he saw the name of the flower "Exclusive Memory". His eyes lingered on these four words for a long time before continuing to read the maintenance instructions of the flower.

He put down the paper and asked Zhou Ran, "Is there a vase?"

Zhou Ran was stunned for a moment: "No, I'll go buy it now."

Chen Xun vaguely remembered seeing an empty vase on an employee's desk, so he left the office and walked to that employee's desk in person.

Chen Xun asked: "Can you lend me the vase, and I'll buy you a new one."

The employees were flattered: "Mr. Chen, you don't need to buy me a new one if you use it."

Under the agitated eyes of his colleagues around him, he raised a finger: "Can I ask you a question?"

Chen Xun was in a good mood: "You ask."

The employee swallowed: "You are the one who sent you flowers..."

Chen Xun smiled. Although he didn't answer, the smile said everything.

In fact, Chen Xun is not a strict boss. He is young, rigorous, intelligent, and technically savvy. He will not act superior in front of his subordinates. As long as he does not touch the bottom line, he will communicate calmly even if he makes mistakes in his work.

But that doesn't mean he's close.

At least no one had ever seen such a gentle expression on his face.

Back in the office, Chen Xun arranged the flowers one by one. There were clusters of pink peonies. He pinched a petal and imagined Chu Ci's face.

But someone just wanted to spoil the atmosphere.

Liang Xiangcong moved his head closer, took an exaggerated "sniff", then turned to Chen Xun and said, "The flowers that Chuci sent are different."

Chen Xun withdrew his hand, his eyes were a little unfriendly.Liang Xiangcong "cut": "Isn't it just smelling your fragrance, as for being so stingy."

Chen Xun spat out two words: "As for."

Liang Xiangcong choked, completely convinced: "I'll go now, okay? I'll come and tell you, don't forget about the appointment to play tomorrow."

After Liang Xiangcong left, Chen Xun thought about it and called Chuci.

Hearing the sound of closing the door at the other end, he asked, "Go home?"

"Yeah." Chu Ci clamped the phone between his head and shoulders, and put on slippers, "Just arrived."

Chen Xun stood up and walked to the window: "I received the flowers, I like them very much."

"nice! You love it."

"What's the name of this flower?" Chen Xun asked knowingly.

"Hmm..." Chu Ci pretended to be stupid, "I don't know, I just bought it because it looked good."

Chen Xun called a little villain in his heart, and stopped teasing him: "Liang Xiangcong asked to play tennis together tomorrow, are you going?"

"Are you inviting me?"

With a brisk tone, Chen Xun could imagine Chu Ci tilting his head and smiling on the phone.He took a deep breath: "Yes, Chuci, I'm inviting you."

Chu Ci remembered the man he met downstairs in Chen Xun's company that day, and paused for two seconds: "Well, I'll go."

-

Liang Xiangcong booked a venue at the club, and as Chu Ci guessed, the person he met downstairs at Chen Xun's company last time was also there.

Chu Ci remembered that the other party was called An Sinan.

After changing his clothes, Chu Ci came out of the locker room, and Chen Xun was already waiting by the side of the field.

In terms of appearance, Chen Xun is actually not a muscular type, on the contrary, he is a bit skinny, but he changed into a sportswear with short sleeves and shorts, revealing his wheat-colored skin, and his arms and calves are covered with muscles, full of strength.

Chu Ci took a look and quickly looked away.

"Warm up first." Chen Xun said.

Chu Ci warmed up and looked at the environment of the venue by the way.They were in the indoor pavilion, and the three venues were connected together. Liang Xiangcong and An Sinan were in the adjacent venue, and there was still a vacant venue.

Although he hadn't played tennis for many years, his muscle memory was still there. After a few rounds, Chu Ci found the feeling. He barely drew a tie with Chen Xun in the first two rounds, but he knew that Chen Xun was making trouble for him.

When Chu Ci saw Chen Xun play basketball in college, he never knew that Chen Xun could also play tennis, and he was so good at it.He wanted to ask Chen Xun when he learned it, but he swallowed the words again.

Regarding the unfamiliar traces on Chen Xun's body, his instinctive reaction was to avoid them.

After two rounds, seeing that Chu Ci was exhausted, Chen Xun proposed to take a break.

Chen Xun walked to the sidelines, took out a drink and a box of chocolates from his backpack, peeled off the packaging and put them into Chu Ci's mouth.

Cheeks puffed up, Chu Ci slowly felt the taste of sweetness melting in his mouth, and lightly raised his eyes from under the wet forehead, the eyes soaked in sweat shone like gems.

Chen Xun couldn't stand his eyes, and deliberately rubbed his hair: "Is it delicious?"

Chu Ci licked his lips, his voice was a bit vague: "It's delicious, not very sweet."

Unlike candy, he likes chocolates that are a little bit bitter.

Chen Xun reached out to wipe off the chocolate on the corner of his mouth, and handed over the juice: "I'll buy it for you next time if you like it."

"buy what?"

Liang Xiangcong and An Sinan also just finished a game, walked over, saw the chocolate with sharp eyes, and snatched it from Chen Xun: "Isn't that... the brand?"

Liang Xiangcong pronounced the English name lamely.

Chu Ci drank the juice.After exercising, his cheeks were flushed, and his lips were even redder than usual. He bit the straw lightly with his white teeth, and occasionally poked out the tip of his tongue to fiddle with it. The strong visual impact made Chen Xun breathless.

Chen Xun ignored the chocolate, stood in front of Chu Ci calmly, and wiped his sweat with a towel.

At this moment, Liang Xiangcong had already opened the chocolate box, and An Sinan also came over: "This brand seems to be quite difficult to buy."

"Isn't it?" Liang Xiangcong raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly, "Isn't I chasing after a starlet recently? I wanted to eat this brand by name, and I wondered if it was chocolate, how hard it is to buy, but I drove over to see it, and there was a queue There were more than one person. That time I queued for two full hours, but it was still very cold, so I caught a cold when I went back.”

An Sinan smiled: "Actually, many of the people in the queue are invited by the store itself, deliberately creating a very popular appearance to attract customers."

Liang Xiangcong shook his index finger: "This is really not the case, the taste is really good, even I, who usually doesn't eat chocolate, ate several pieces."

As he spoke, he reached out to take it, but was slapped away by Chen Xun before he touched it.

Liang Xiangcong let out a long "Oh" with an interesting expression on his face: "It seems that I bought it specially for Chu Ci, so I really dare not eat it."

Chu Ci was blocked by Chen Xun, so he couldn't see anything and could only hear the conversation of a few people.

Liang Xiangcong continued: "What time did you get up this time? Or did you not sleep at all and go to queue in the middle of the night?"

Chu Ci's heart sank, and he poked his head out from behind Chen Xun.

Liang Xiangcong had found someone to confide in, and immediately wanted to pull Chuci into his camp.

"Chu Ci, do you know?" Liang Xiangcong poured out his bitterness, "Before you returned to China, Chen Xun often stayed up all night, drove around in the car, and dragged me up several times at night to accompany him crazy. It took me several days to recover. come over."

"It's really crazy, you're not happy if you don't bring yourself to sudden death, right?"

The last sentence was addressed to Chen Xun.

"Really?" Chu Ci immediately looked at Chen Xun, "Aren't you sleeping?"

After finishing speaking, he suddenly realized, no wonder Chen Xun would go to the study at night, and get up before he woke up.

At first he thought Chen Xun was avoiding him on purpose, but he didn't expect...

Chen Xun looked at Chu Ci, his gaze changed from sharp to gentle, but he didn't answer.

Seeing this, An Sinan came out to smooth things over, and then turned the topic back to the chocolate: "This chocolate looks delicious, Chu Ci, would you mind if I try a piece?"

Chu Ci really wanted to say that he minded, and he didn't want to share it with anyone, but out of politeness, he still said, "How come, you can eat."

An Sinan ate one and said with a smile, "It tastes pretty good."

He picked up the racket and said to Chen Xun, "It's been a long time since I played with you. I lost to you so many times before. I've been practicing hard recently. Do you dare to play?"

Chen Xun didn't want to touch his face, so he responded and said to Chu Ci: "You rest first."

Before leaving, he gave Liang Xiangcong another warning look.

Chen Xun and An Sinan walked on the field side by side. Chu Ci looked at their backs and bit the straw in the drink bottle hard.

Liang Xiangcong on the side snorted dissatisfiedly, sat down on the chair, and said to Chu Ci: "Leave them alone. They beat them, let's talk about ours."

Chu Ci didn't know what he and Liang Xiangcong had to talk about, but he still sat down on the chair, looking at the field from time to time, responding to what Liang Xiangcong said.

Seeing the heated atmosphere of the game, Chu Ci couldn't help but ask Liang Xiangcong, "Is he... familiar with Chen Xun?"

"You mean An Sinan?" Liang Xiangcong replied thoughtlessly, "I'm familiar."

Chu Ci pursed his lips.

Liang Xiangcong looked at Chu Ci's expression, and suddenly laughed: "You don't think they..."

Chu Ci was overwhelmed, so he bit the bullet and denied: "No."

Liang Xiangcong laughed loudly, and the laughter even attracted the attention of the two people on the field. An Sinan made a pause gesture, walked to the sidelines, picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and asked, "What is so happy?"

Liang Xiangcong almost rolled off his chair with laughter, Chu Ci suspected that his face was about to steam, and stared at Liang Xiangcong, but still couldn't stop the gossip man from saying, "Chu Ci thought you and Chen Xun..."

An Sinan is also a smart person, so he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "Why do you think so, it will be troublesome if my boyfriend hears about it, he is a jealous vat. Besides, Chen Xun's workaholic plus People who are not interested, I have no interest."

It was only then that Chu Ci realized how outrageous his misunderstanding was.It may be that after Ji Yao's incident, everyone looks like a potential rival in love.Fortunately, Chen Xun didn't come over, otherwise he would really have to find a crack in the ground to get in.

An Sinan returned to the court to play, Chu Ci looked down at his phone to hide his embarrassment.But his embarrassment didn't last long, because Liang Xiangcong's gossip gene started to make trouble again.

Liang Xiangcong said: "Actually, there are indeed many people chasing Chen Xun. We did it when we were studying abroad, and even more after returning to China to start a business. Almost every reception has a lot of people asking me if he is single."

Chu Ci's heart sank, he raised his eyes from the phone, and couldn't help sending his ears over again.

Liang Xiangcong pouted: "It's the man named Ji Feng you met at the reception last time. His younger brother Ji Yao has been chasing Chen Xun. He should be the one who has been chasing Chen Xun for the longest time. He came back from New York and is very persistent. He doesn't believe Chen Xun. Xun is married, sent flowers to the company yesterday, and went to the company to block people in person."

Liang Xiangcong shrugged, deliberately did not say that Chen Xun didn't want the flower, and he didn't say that Ji Yao was invited away by the security guards without even seeing Chen Xun's face.

Part of the facts are still facts, Liang Xiangcong thought, whoever made Chen Xun show affection in front of him every day, now even has to haggle over every piece of chocolate with him.

Liang Xiangcong said it as a joke, but Chu Ci's ears made him extremely bored.

The air in the stadium suddenly became thin, Chu Ci felt out of breath, he urgently needed fresh air.

"I'm going to buy a cup of coffee." Chu Ci stood up from the chair and asked Liang Xiangcong, "Do you want to drink?"

Liang Xiangcong said no to drink, Chu Ci left.

As soon as Chu Ci left, Chen Xun signaled An Sinan to pause, walked up to Liang Xiangcong and asked, "Where did he go?"

Liang Xiangcong snorted, his scalp was numb from Chen Xun's stare, and he said angrily, "Go buy coffee."

Chen Xun glanced at Chu Ci's cell phone that had fallen on the chair, and his heart sank.Chu Ci didn't bring any money, if he really bought coffee, why didn't he bring his mobile phone.

"What did you say to him again?"

Liang Xiangcong put his arms around his chest, and gave Chen Xun a sideways look: "Every time you blame me, why don't you find the reason on yourself?"

Chen Xun didn't bother to pay attention to it. He put down his racket and was about to go out to find Chu Ci. At this moment, Chu Ci's cell phone rang suddenly. It was a request for a video call.

"Gu Qi'an." Liang Xiangcong leaned over and read out the name on the screen, "Who is it? Why does it sound so familiar?"

Hearing this, Chen Xun's face suddenly darkened.

The author says:

There is one more, the next chapter of Chuci will be stunned;
