Chapter 46 - Your Man Would Be Mine

Ji Ruoyun had been waiting for this question, so she grinned carelessly, “Nothing special. Today I just dropped by to trouble my cousin-in-law Qin Zhenyang to do me a favor. Is he not at home today?”

‘Cousin-in-law? It sounds like she is familiar with Qin Zhenyang.’ Ji Xiaoli didn’t know what her cousin Ji Ruoyun’s intention was, but Ji Ruoyun’s wandering eyes showed that she wouldn’t discuss serious business with Qin Zhenyang. Ji Xiaoli said miserably, “He is not at home now. I wonder what he could do to help you. Maybe you can tell me, and I’ll see what I can do.”

Her relationship with Qin Zhenyang hadn’t been made public among her family and friends, and they had not yet held a wedding ceremony. But Ji Ruoyun seemed to know everything, and even went to her house to visit Qin Zhenyang. Even if Ji Ruoyun didn’t explain how she learned about Qin Zhenyang, Ji Xiaoli could guess the reason, ‘It must have something to do with Ji Xuewei.’

Qin Zhenyang didn’t know Ji Xiaoli’s cousin Ji Ruoyun. But Ji Ruoyun came here to see Qin Zhenyang, and she seemed to be very familiar with Qin Zhenyang. She came directly to find her cousin’s husband Qin Zhenyang without considering her cousin Ji Xiaoli’s feelings.

Ji Ruoyun saw Ji Xiaoli seem to look her up and down. ‘Before I say anything, Ji Xiaoli is hostile to me. She’s too mean and petty.’ She frowned, “You are different from my cousin-in-law Qin Zhenyang. Cousin Xiaoli, your social circle is much smaller than that of Mr. Qin Zhenyang. I heard his family is quite powerful. I come to ask him to introduce a man to me. I’m twenty-two now. My family is worried about my marriage, but they only introduce those bad-looking men to me. So I hope my cousin-in-law can introduce an eligible man to me.”

‘It turns out that she wants my husband to introduce a man to her.’

Ji Xiaoli was puzzled, ‘Cousin Ruoyun is so stupid. Ji Xuewei’s husband is also from the Qin family, who has the same family background as my husband Qin Zhenyang. But Ji Ruoyun wants my husband to introduce a man to her. Ji Ruoyun and Ji Xuewei must have been secretly plotting against me.’

Ji Xiaoli sneered in her heart and said coldly, “My husband is busy with his work. Although his social circle is not small, he usually contacts very few people. You might as well ask your cousin Xuewei’s husband Qin Zheng to introduce a man to you. He is a businessman with a wide social circle. Tell him what kind of man you’re looking for. Maybe he can help you find your ideal man.”

‘Cousin Xuewei’s husband Qin Zheng?’

Ji Ruoyun never coveted Qin Zheng. Qin Zheng was also a busy man. She met Qin Zheng once. At that time, Qin Zheng was rushing back to his company for a meeting. But she didn’t really put her mind on Qin Zheng. The first reason was that she preferred military officers. The second reason was that Cousin Xuewei was so kind to her, so she certainly couldn’t covet Qin Zheng.

Ji Ruoyun drank two mouthfuls of tea and smiled disapprovingly, “I’ve told my Cousin Xuewei about it. Now I come to ask your husband to introduce a man to me. Isn’t it better to have two strings to one’s bow?”

Ji Xiaoli showed the whites of her eyes to Ji Ruoyun speechlessly. She had long been impatient with Ji Ruoyun and showed her tiredness, “Well, I got it. I’ll tell Zhenyang about it when he comes back. Let him introduce a man to you.”

Ji Xiaoli had never bonded with her Cousin Ji Ruoyun, and her aunt, Ji Ruoyun’s mother, had been indifferent to her since she was young. She didn’t want to meddle in this business. But she had to say so because Cousin Ji Ruoyun came to her house to ask her for help.

As for more, she was willing to help but unable to do so.

After hearing this, Ji Ruoyun knew that her Cousin Xiaoli was obviously hinting that she had overstayed her welcome. She was a little upset and stood up again and went toward the stairs, “Cousin Xiaoli, I’m here for the first time. I envy you for marrying a good man and living in such a high-class villa. If only I could marry a rich man one day. Just now that old lady of your family stopped me from going upstairs, and she said it was the rules of the master’s family. But we are cousins. Can I not abide by so many rules?”

Ji Ruoyun looked at the second floor. It seemed that if she was not allowed to go upstairs, Ji Xiaoli would be a sinner who committed serious crimes.

Ji Xiaoli didn’t know what the scheming her cousin was thinking about. But she intuitively thought Ji Ruoyun couldn’t go upstairs, so she said coldly, “Aunt Wang is right. It’s not that I stop you from going upstairs, it’s that my husband is a neat freak. So the guests are usually staying on the first floor. And my husband will come back soon. He might be mad if he sees you on the second floor.”

At this time, she could only stop Ji Ruoyun from going upstairs by making an excuse that Qin Zhenyang was a neat frak. She didn’t find anything wrong with that remark.

“Are you kidding me? Besides, I put on your slippers. And I just took a bath last night. Can I still make the ground dirty?” She thought Ji Xiaoli was too petty, and she didn’t like Ji Xiaoli very much. She thought Ji Xiaoli didn’t want her to go upstairs, so she made up the excuse.

But it didn’t matter. Just now she seemed to hear Ji Xiaoli say that Qin Zhenyang would be back soon. By then, Ji Xiaoli would not be able to stop her from going upstairs.

Ji Ruoyun was a little excited. Although she didn’t know what her cousin-in-law looked like, she intuitively thought that Qin Zhenyang must be a handsome and tall man. So even if she was upset at that time, she didn’t mind. She leaned on the sofa arrogantly, “If you don’t let me go upstairs, I won’t go. I’ll just sit here for a while.”

Ji Xiaoli was a little hesitant, ‘What is Ji Ruoyun going to do in my house? It’s almost six o’clock now. Is she going to stay at my house tonight? We have never been in contact for long and suddenly she dropped by. She must be up to something this time.’

At the next moment, she was more suspicious of Ji Ruoyun because Ji Ruoyun asked what kind of person Qin Zhenyang was.

‘Ji Ruoyun asked what kind of person my husband was without any reason. Is this a question that normal people should ask?’ Ji Xiaoli sneered inwardly. Thinking of Ji Xuewei, she understood the purpose of Ji Ruoyun coming here.

‘She didn’t ask Qin Zhenyang to introduce a man to her at all, but coveted my husband.’

Ji Xiaoli understood Ji Ruoyun’s intention. Naturally, she was not afraid of her tricks. She smiled, “I’m not sure what kind of person your cousin-in-law is. After all, I’m his wife, and in my opinion he’s perfect. Otherwise, I will not marry him rashly.”

This words from Ji Xiaoli had profound meaning, which was a warning to Ji Ruoyun. But Ji Ruoyun was already obsessed with her cousin-in-law Qin Zhenyang, so she would not give up so easily. She frowned, “My cousin-in-law is excellent. But you haven’t even got a job yet. You have no income, and in time your whole fortune will be used up. What if one day he doesn’t love you? All men are fond of the new and tired of the old. You have to prepare yourself in advance.”

Aunt Wang in the kitchen heard what Ji Ruoyun said, and she frowned coldly. She had felt that the girl looked odd from the very beginning. She was dressed like a slut with heavy makeup. At first, She thought that the girl really had something to discuss with the young madam, but she didn’t expect that the girl was coveting the young master.

‘It is a pity that she is injudicious. Our young master is the most faithful to his wife, and he likes pure and simple-minded women. He won’t like girls like this Ji Ruoyun.’

While Ji Xiaoli hadn’t answered yet, Aunt Wang had given a sharp answer, “Miss Ji, our young madam can understand our young master best. How can a girl like you, who is not married, understand a man’s mind so well? Is it because that you are often dumped by men so you think in this way? I’ve been with the young master for so long. I don’t think he is fond of the new and tired of the old. I don’t know anything else, but I can be sure that he will never like a woman dressed in a voluptuous way.”

Aunt Wang was talking about a woman like Ji Ruoyun.

Naturally, Ji Ruoyun knew that Aunt Wang was talking about her, and she immediately became angry, “What are you talking about, old witch?”

“Ji Ruoyun, watch your mouth. Do you forget what I said to you just now?” Ji Xiaoli could allow her to say anything but insulting Aunt Wang. The old man who took great care of them deserved all respect.

Ji Ruoyun said angrily, “I didn’t want to scold her, but what she said was rude and mean.”

Aunt Wang didn’t look angry, but smiled, “Let’s not discuss whether my words are rude or not. Is my remark aimed at Miss Ji? If not, why are you angry? Do you also think that the person I mentioned is actually you?”

Aunt Wang used to be not only a soldier in the army, but also a telephone operator. So few people could beat her in eloquence.

Looking at Ji Ruoyun’s embarrassed appearance, Ji Xiaoli felt very satisfied. To avoid this embarrassment, Ji Xiaoli said, “Ruoyun, it’s not early. It’s time…”

Ji Xiaoli wanted Ji Ruoyun to leave her home soon. Ji Ruoyun knew that Ji Xiaoli really ordered her to leave this time, but she would not leave before she saw Qin Zhenyang. So she said with a smile before Ji Xiaoli drove her away, “Cousin Xiaoli, Do you want me to have dinner here? I didn’t plan to eat at your place. But since you ask me to eat here, I’ll have dinner before I leave.”

‘Ji Ruoyun is so annoying.’ Ji Xiaoli and Aunt Wang looked at each other helplessly. Both of them were quite speechless to this importunate cousin, but they couldn’t really drive her away. At that time they could only hope that she could leave after eating.

Aunt Wang had met many annoying people before. But Ji Ruoyun was the most knavish she had ever met. She thought that if Miss Ji dared to come again, she would not open the door for her. She had already felt guilty about letting Ji Ruoyun into the house this time.

“Aunt Wang, let the chef prepare dinner. Cousin Ruoyun should be hungry. Let her eat first.”

Ji Ruoyun quickly waved her hand, “No, I’ll have dinner with Cousin Xiaoli. Cousin Xiaoli, are you waiting for my cousin-in-law? Let’s wait for him together. I’m a guest. How can I eat first?”

‘What a joke!’ Ji Ruoyun hadn’t seen Qin Zhenyang yet. How could she leave right now?

Ji Xiaoli had determined that this cousin was coveting her husband Qin Zhenyang. She wasn’t worried that her man would really fall in love with other woman. After all, a man who could be seduced by a woman was not worth her love.

However, she already felt a little sick and dizzy that day. She didn’t have the energy to deal with Ji Ruoyun. She was really upset. She wanted to drive Ji Ruoyun away, but Ji Ruoyun insisted on staying here.

“Since you insist on waiting for him, it’s up to you.” Ji Xiaoli said to Ji Ruoyun indifferently. No matter what attitude she had towards Qin Zhenyang, she always felt uncomfortable when a woman wanted to seduce her husband suddenly.

She lied on the sofa, squinting her eyes, and speculating that Qin Zhenyang should be back soon. And Ji Ruoyun looked around with excitement, seeming to be observing carefully every corner of this villa.

“Cousin Xiaoli?”

Ji Xiaoli heard her call, but she was too lazy to answer. She pretended to be asleep without saying a word.

Ji Ruoyun said scornfully, “You’re sleepy so early. You usually don’t work. You’re so lucky to…” Before she had finished speaking, she stood up from the sofa and walked around on the first floor. And Aunt Wang, who came over, looked at her viciously and monitored her wherever she went.

“Hey, where is the washroom? I’m going to the washroom.”

Aunt Wang ignored her and turned straight away from her. Ji Ruoyun stamped her feet angrily. ‘It doesn’t matter.’ She could find the washroom anyway. Although the villa was big, she had plenty of time to search one room after another, till she found the washroom. Finally, she found the washroom on the right corner.

As soon as she entered the washroom, Ji Ruoyun locked the door of the washroom. She took out a box of Pheromone perfume from her handbag, which was sent to her by her Cousin Xue Wei. It was said that this bottle of perfume was originally bought by Ji Xuewei from Gang City.

The smell of this perfume was also very special, different from the ordinary perfume. Spraying it on the body was mainly to arouse a man’s libido. So she sprayed a lot of perfume on her neck and thighs and behind her ears. The smell was not strong. But as long as the man smelled it, this man would be tempted by the woman who wore this perfume.

After doing all this, she opened the door of the washroom with confidence, expecting Qin Zhenyang to appear in front of her.

Ji Xiaoli did not know that her Cousin Ji Xiaoli’s means were so insidious. After lying on the sofa for a while, she felt a little refreshed and stretched herself. Then she heard the man at the gate coming in and chuckled in a loud voice, “Are you tired?”

Qin Zhenyang knew that his wife Xiaoli was preparing to set up a studio recently. In fact, even if she didn’t work, he could support her. He had enough money for her to spend a whole life. But since his wife Xiaoli insisted on having her own studio, he could only respect her choice.

As soon as he had finished speaking, he heard a delicate female voice from a corner, “Is my cousin-in-law coming back?”
