My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 184

The problem is that she is both Venus and Yan Chu. She didn’t know how to make of her complicated emotions.

“Forget it.” She thought to herself. “You must remember you are Yan Chu! You are not Venus! The important thing is to save the kid!”

For the rest of the journey, Kerry kept saying nice things to her, hoping to get her forgiveness. Every time she showed interest in some kind of souvenir, he would ask her whether she wanted him to buy it or not. But her answer is always no. “I don’t like it.” “It’s too ugly.” She would say.

There was nothing Kerry could do. He stopped her and put on a sorrowful expression. He said in a soft voice: “Please stop being angry. I know I was wrong.”

“What did you do wrong?”

“I shouldn’t have kissed you in front of so many people.” Kerry answered.

“It has nothing to do with the environment! You shouldn’t have kissed me! That’s what truly matters!” Venus said angrily.

“But I did it. What should I do to make you forgive me?” Kerry said in a naughty way.

Venus rolled her eyes and said: “Go back to those shops and buy every single thing I showed interest in.”

“Every single thing?” Kerry was surprised.

“Yes! Every single thing! If you don’t miss anything, I will forgive you.”

“Deal! Just wait here.” Kerry said. He then turned back and walked towards those shops. He is a very smart person and he has a sharp memory. So it was not a difficult task for him.

Venus sat on a stone seat and waited for him. People passing by cast glances at her from time to time, especially these men who were traveling alone.

A bold man walked directly to her and asked: “Young lady, are you traveling alone?”

Venus glared at him and said: “No. I have company!”

That man walked away with disappointment.

She knew her exceptional beauty could make her a target for these single men. So she wore a cold expression, indicating that she didn’t want to be bothered by anyone. But her strategy proved to be useless. Because soon, another man walked to her and tried to flirt with her.

“Are you here to travel?” He asked. He wore a pair of glasses and he had a big backpack.

Venus looked at him coldly. She didn’t say anything, thinking: “What else could I possibly be doing here?”

The man didn’t give up. He said: “If you are alone, we can be partners. It’s dangerous for a girl to travel alone.”

“I have a partner.” She said. She noticed Kerry came back with lots of big and small bags from the corner of her eyes.

“You have been sitting alone here for a long time. Where is your partner? You are lying.”

Venus then looked at Kerry and smiled. That man followed her gaze, and he saw a tall and strong man with very handsome features was walking towards them. Kerry’s presence was so formidable and that young man escaped in an instant.

“Here are the things you want. Did I miss anything?” Kerry smiled and put the stuff on a stone table.

Venus looked at the goods carefully. Apart from all the things she wanted, Kerry also bought some snacks.

“You didn’t miss anything.”

“Can you stop being angry?” Kerry asked.

Venus didn’t answer him. A flicker of a smile crossed her face and she said: “I’m hungry.”

Kerry noticed her smile and he sighed with relief. He said: “Let’s go. I’ll take you to the best restaurant here.”

“Sure.”

They had a sumptuous meal. Venus felt much better. They strolled along the street, which was washed so clean by the rain.

“Where are we going tomorrow?” Venus asked.

Kerry said: “We will have a good sleep. Then I will take you to the street that is known for its various kinds of snacks.”

“That sounds great!” Venus stretched herself and said: “I’m so tired. We walked a long way. Don’t wake me up tomorrow morning. I will sleep till the noon.”

“Sure. You can sleep as much as you want to.”

They arrived at the hotel and they went back to their rooms. Venus took a shower and went to sleep.

......

It was very early in the morning. But someone called Venus and she was wakened. She grabbed the phone and answered it.

“Who is it?”

“Director Chu. It’s about our project! The supplier of the equipment for our amusement park wants to raise the price all of a sudden. They said the price we give is too low.” It was Shixuan Tang’s voice.

“Why are you telling me this? What do I know about the business?” Venus said. Her eyes were half shut.

“The point is that we are not familiar with the situation here in this city, and we don’t want to get scammed. Luckily, this supplier was introduced to us by a friend, or we will need to pay more money.”

“So what do you want me to do?’

“I heard you and Director Ye are traveling. Can you ask him for some advice? Our company is responsible for this project but he is also a partner of ours. So he will help.” Shixuan said.

Venus finally opened her eyes and said: “Fine. I’ll give it a shot.”

“I’ll send all the materials to you, and also, I’ll be waiting for you at the entrance to the highway.”

“Alright.”

Venus hung up the phone. She stayed in bed for a few minutes and then dragged herself out of it. Her identity was the second daughter of Chu Family, so she must be responsible for the family’s business.
