DTBS - Chapter 128
Chapter 128: Okay Wifey
"CEO Tao, the meeting minutes for today will be sent to your email by Secretary Zhang once they are ready. It's three o'clock now. At four this afternoon, we need to head to the airport. You are flying to Mingyang tonight to attend an exchange conference there. I have already booked the hotel."
Secretary Zheng held a tablet and walked beside the elegant woman with steady steps, her tone measured and orderly: "The documents you need to sign next have been organized and placed on your desk. Once you've finished processing them, we can rush to the airport."
"Secretary Zheng," Tao Qiuyun, dressed in a pink and white suit, was clearly in an extremely good mood, a smile lingering in the corners of her eyes, "Are you really okay? I told you to rest more. I could have had Secretary Zhou accompany me on the business trip."
"CEO Tao, I'm fine. You only rested for two days when you were sick, and I've rested for a whole week," Secretary Zheng said seriously. "Besides, Secretary Zhou is still following up on the current project progress and probably can't spare the time. It's better if I go with you. Please rest assured, I'm completely recovered, strong enough to wrestle a bull."
Tao Qiuyun was amused by her and, uncharacteristically, teased her, "Then Chunjin's next target is ranches, and you'll be in charge of the follow-up."
"Ah, well."
"Just kidding, Secretary Zheng, no need to panic. You'll still be responsible for matters related to new technology." Tao Qiuyun walked into her office, sat down at her chair, and began flipping through a document.
The woman had beautiful eyes and clear brows, full of charm, yet without the worldly air of a businesswoman. She was more like a refined person who had read extensively and possessed an elegant temperament.
"When I first came back, everyone was saying that after your two-day leave, CEO Tao, you seemed to have much more energy," Secretary Zheng said with some emotion. "I see it now too. It's rare for you to be in such a good mood. No wonder people say being in love makes you radiant. It seems it's true."
"Being in love…" Tao Qiuyun was momentarily lost in thought.
These past few days of work had almost made her forget how happy she was being with Qingshang.
"CEO Tao, during my leave, the internet was full of news about you and Miss Qin. Now Director He Zhiwei has posted on Weibo welcoming Miss Qin back, and everyone is saying you two will be separated again," Secretary Zheng shook her head, feeling a bit regretful.
Actually, she really hoped Miss Qin would visit CEO Tao at Chunjin, but what a pity!
Actors and CEOs are both extremely busy professions, especially actors, who have to travel everywhere and are out of sight for several months once they join a production.
"Yes, we'll be separated again," Tao Qiuyun put down the document and rubbed her forehead, feeling a little down.
She never found it this hard before. Why now did she want to be with her every moment, every second?
The woman looked up at Secretary Zheng, "What's my schedule like recently? Organize it, give me an estimate, and send it to my email."
"Are you planning to visit the set?" Secretary Zheng understood her hidden meaning.
"I have the thought, but it's not certain I'll implement it," Tao Qiuyun's reply was still conservative. "Let's look at work first, then talk about whether there's time to visit."
"CEO Tao," Secretary Zheng stared at her fair hands, "I have a question, please don't mind me being nosy. Actually, when I came to work today, I heard colleagues discussing you and Miss Qin."
"What were they saying?" Tao Qiuyun clasped her hands together, looking like she was listening.
"Everyone finds it quite strange," Secretary Zheng pursed her lips, then finally spoke, "After all, it's one thing that you and Miss Qin were secretly married before, but now that you've gone public, your hand is still empty… So they were wondering, are you not planning to wear your wedding ring?"
Wedding… ring?
Tao Qiuyun was startled.
That's right, there's also the wedding ring!
And not just the ring, she and Qingshang hadn't even gone to look at wedding dresses!
They hadn't followed a single step of the normal wedding process!
"CEO Tao?" Secretary Zheng called out to her.
"It's nothing," Tao Qiuyun smiled and casually picked up her pen. "Secretary Zheng, are you all very curious why I don't wear a wedding ring?"
"Not exactly," Secretary Zheng considered for a moment, then finally said, "Actually, it was discussed during a dinner among the secretaries. They said that after the CEO and their celebrity wife in novels announce their marriage, they can't wait to put on their rings, so we were guessing if you, CEO Tao… would also wear a ring."
Actually, it wasn't a guess, but a bet among them!
Clearly, she had won the bet! CEO Tao wouldn't wear a ring!
After all, she was the one who helped them book the appointment at the Civil Affairs Bureau for their marriage half a year ago! She was an insider!
"You said it yourself, it's a novel," Tao Qiuyun lowered her eyes to stare at her fingers. "Naturally, you can't compare novels and reality. It's meaningless."
"CEO Tao is right."
"I…" Tao Qiuyun hesitated.
She really wanted Secretary Zheng to help her find a suitable place to customize wedding rings, but she didn't want people in the company to know that she and Qin Qingshang didn't have wedding rings. So she kept quiet and just told Secretary Zheng to get back to her work.
After the dedicated Secretary Zheng left, the woman finally took out her phone and sent two messages to Qin Qingshang:
【Don't Believe Her: Wife, I miss you so much. Can you message me back after you finish filming?】
【Don't Believe Her: (cat emoji peeking)】
Qin Qingshang wasn't filming right now, so she quickly replied:
【Big Cat: Hmph! You miss me? Then tell me honestly, what part of me do you miss?】
Tao Qiuyun was stunned, seemingly completely unprepared for her wife's reply to be so provocative. She stared at the screen and slowly typed:
【Don't Believe Her: …I miss all of you】
【Big Cat: (cat emoji on fire) Then what do those six dots before mean!】
【Don't Believe Her: They are ellipses】
【Big Cat: ?】
【Big Cat: Tao Qiuyun!】
【Big Cat: (cat emoji punch)】
【Big Cat: (Can't stand it anymore, punches the earth into oblivion)】
It was clear that the woman on the other side of the screen was very angry, seemingly wanting to slap her to death. Tao Qiuyun didn't dwell on why she was angry and got straight to the point.
【Don't Believe Her: Secretary Zheng asked me today why I wasn't wearing a wedding ring, so I wanted to ask you, when should we go to a store to customize one?】
【Big Cat: Oh~ I see, you want to make up for the wedding for me, right? (cat emoji covering mouth laughing)】
【Don't Believe Her: Yes】
【Big Cat: I haven't even been courted properly, and I somehow ended up with a daughter with you and even got a marriage certificate with you. What do you say we should do? Shouldn't you compensate me? (cat emoji proud)】
【Don't Believe Her: Isn't it good that we became mothers painlessly? I've always believed that with the current level of technology, unless it's a union between two healthy women ensuring the excellence of both genetic factors, pregnancy is still somewhat risky for the mother. After all, the quality of genetic factors is very important. Even so, at the current level, there are still certain deficiencies in post-operative recovery treatment for pregnant women. The next step in new technology is to continue promoting biological and genetic technology】
This was a plan she intended to push forward after studying Su Qingxiang's paper that day.
【Big Cat: (cat emoji dizzy) Stop! I'm not discussing such a deep topic with you!】
【Don't Believe Her: Okay, wife】
【Big Cat: You said the union between two healthy women is best, are we not healthy?】
【Don't Believe Her: We are naturally very healthy. I've always admired you for going out even with shaky legs】
【Big Cat: Tao Qiuyun! You're so mean! Don't mention that again!】
【Don't Believe Her: Okay, wife】
【Big Cat: (cat emoji glaring)】
【Big Cat: So we can get pregnant and have a daughter normally~】
【Don't Believe Her: I don't have that plan. Whether I get pregnant or you get pregnant, I don't think it's necessary】
【Big Cat: (cat emoji deep thought) Is it because of Qinqin?】
【Don't Believe Her: Yes】
【Big Cat: Are you afraid Qinqin will be unhappy if she has a sister?】
【Don't Believe Her: A person's energy is limited, Qingshang. One daughter is enough for us. I don't want your attention, Qinqin's attention, or my attention to be divided among others. A family of three is just right】
【Big Cat: (cat emoji suspicious) Are you serious?】
【Don't Believe Her: I'm serious. Qingshang, so we won't get pregnant, okay? From now on, when I use that position, we'll take medicine promptly, okay?】
【Big Cat: You bastard… big bad guy! Big pervert! I'm not talking to you anymore!】
【Don't Believe Her: So when are we going to look at wedding rings? If we're customizing, you need to be there in person, after all, we need to measure your finger. We can also make a few extra sets, just in case you get fat later】
【Big Cat: ?】
【Big Cat: I get fat?】
【Big Cat: Tao Qiuyun! Where am I fat!】
【Don't Believe Her: I mean in the future】
【Big Cat: What do you mean! Do you think I'll get fat in the future? Or my fingers will get fat? Tao Qiuyun! You bad person, I'm telling you, if you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'll fly back to Tianhua tonight and kill you!】
【Don't Believe Her: Is there such a good thing?】
【Big Cat: ?】
【Big Cat: You're a pervert!】
【Big Cat: Someone is looking for me, I'll chat with you tonight. You're making me so angry!】
【Don't Believe Her: [Voice message]】
The cat was fuming, and subconsciously clicked play.
The woman's clear and gentle voice came through, the end of her tone slightly raised, carrying a hint of unbearable ambiguity: "Waiting for you to kill me tonight, Qingshang."
Ming Siwen, who was in the same lounge, heard this sentence, and the script in her hand instantly fell to the ground.
Oh my god! What did I just hear?!
And her assistant, Xiao Li, immediately blushed on the spot, not knowing where to look. She simply turned around to face the wall and stammered, trying to cover up, "Sister Ming, this wall sounds good… No, this voice looks good."
Ming Siwen: "…If you can't talk properly, don't talk."
Qin Qingshang: "…T^T"
"Okay, Sister Ming. I'm sorry, Sister Qin, I really didn't hear anything," Xiao Li quickly apologized and added, "My hearing has always been bad."
Seeing Ming Siwen's teasing expression, Qin Qingshang immediately blushed, clutched her phone, and turned to leave the lounge: "I, I'll go see who's looking for me, Teacher Ming, you can take your time with the script."
"Okay, Qingshang," Ming Siwen tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, staring at the cat's red ears, and said thoughtfully, "I won't come to rehearse lines with you tonight, don't worry."
"Tao Qiuyun won't be here tonight!" Qin Qingshang waved her hand to explain, "She's still far away in Tianhua. Why would she come to Mingyang for no reason? And she doesn't even know I'm in Mingyang, she still thinks I'm in the mountains."
"I understand, I understand," Ming Siwen smiled knowingly, "I won't disturb the wife-wife's nighttime phone game."
The cat suddenly realized, her cheeks flushed, and she stiffly left the room.
Bastard, bastard!
Tao Qiuyun, that bad person, is she perhaps planning to coerce and entice me during the video call tonight? Does she want to watch me do it to myself? To satisfy her craving from these past few days?
No, no! I absolutely cannot indulge her!
The cat's expression was firm…
The experience of the previous two days and two nights kept reminding her:
You cannot let Tao Qiuyun, that big tiger, succeed!
Moreover, you can't beat her. She even handled you with just one hand!
"Bad person!" The cat couldn't help but stare at their chat interface and muttered softly.
The new alias she gave her, "Don't Believe Her," was indeed accurate. This woman is full of nonsense and cannot be easily trusted.
Tonight, she will completely shatter Qiuqiu's beautiful dream!
The cat clenched her paws.
