After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 128: An Unexpected Encounter

Jiang Lingxi thought that asking Shen Yunqing for help in finding a house would be faster than asking Tong Yue, but she didn’t expect it to be this fast.

This time when the call came in, she answered it, but she had just gotten up.

"I brought breakfast."

"... Come up!"

The doorbell rang, and Jiang Lingxi grabbed a washcloth, wiped her face, and walked over to open the door.

When she saw the tall, elegant figure outside the door and the familiar food box, she asked, "Was it on purpose?"

Yesterday, she hadn’t even woken up by this time, but today she was up fifteen minutes earlier.

Did he time it so perfectly knowing she had just gotten up and hadn’t had breakfast yet?

Shen Yunqing naturally didn’t dare to nod, "I made fresh crab roe buns, they won’t taste good cold."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

She succumbed to the temptation of delicious food.

And so, the scene before the dining table repeated itself exactly as it did yesterday morning.

Except this time, Jiang Lingxi hadn’t finished eating when the doorbell rang again.

Just as she was about to put down her chopsticks, she saw Shen Yunqing already standing up and walking toward the door.

Seeing this, she stuffed the remaining half bun into her mouth.

The door opened and Lu Zhengzheng rushed straight in with a big box, not even lifting her head, "Zhengzheng sister, I’m here to deliver the clothes the brand sent to the company. I thought you weren’t up by this time yet. It smells so good, you’ve even started breakfast. Can you still eat the breakfast I brought?"

"What breakfast did you buy?"

Lu Zhengzheng paused, raised her head, and met the eyes of Jiang Lingxi seated at the dining table.

"Zhengzheng sister?"

Sister Zhengzheng was sitting at the dining table, so who was the person who just opened the door for her?

Realizing this, Lu Zhengzheng awkwardly turned her head back to look at the doorway she had just come through.

The man was wearing a well-tailored dark gray suit with a subtle pattern, tall and handsome, like a timeless, elegant painting just by standing there.

He was gently closing the door, then walked toward them.

Lu Zhengzheng felt her knees go weak, "Mr. Shen?"

Shen Yunqing nodded slightly and looked at the box in her hand, "Need help?"

"No, no need." Lu Zhengzheng quickly shook her head and stammered, "Just a few clothes, I’ll organize them in Zhengzheng sister’s wardrobe."

After saying this, she turned and made a quick exit, forgetting to put down the breakfast placed on the box.

After she had placed the box down in the wardrobe, she looked at the breakfast meant for Zhengzheng sister and nervously scratched her fingers.

Should she go out and give it to her now or wait a bit?

But Mr. Shen is outside!

Wait, why is Mr. Shen in Zhengzheng sister’s house?

You can’t blame her for being so surprised; she had never seen Mr. Shen in this apartment before. If she had known he was here, she would have notified Zhengzheng sister before coming instead of barging in like that.

Fortunately, Jiang Lingxi made the decision for her.

"Zhengzheng, where’s my breakfast?"

Lu Zhengzheng turned her head to see Jiang Lingxi standing at the wardrobe door and felt relieved. She quickly handed over the breakfast, "I bought you the beef rice rolls and taro cheese buns you like lately."

Jiang Lingxi weighed the food box, "Did you not have breakfast either? Is this for the two of us?"

Just as Lu Zhengzheng was about to shake her head, her stomach growled first.

So she shut her mouth again.

Jiang Lingxi couldn’t help but laugh and cry, pulled her by the wrist and said, "Let’s eat before we get busy."

"I-I’ll eat in the guest room."

She couldn’t imagine eating breakfast in front of Mr. Shen.

"Afraid of him?" Jiang Lingxi gestured toward the dining table.

"N-not really afraid, just nervous."

"Shen Yunqing," Jiang Lingxi called out as she gestured toward the living room, "Why don’t you go sit on the sofa and watch some TV?"

Lu Zhengzheng watched in stunned silence as Mr. Shen obediently stood up, walked to the living room sofa, picked up the remote from the coffee table, and turned on the TV, then switched to the morning news.

Jiang Lingxi didn’t expect him to like the same programs as her. However, the dining table was a bit far from the TV, "Turn up the volume a bit."

She could hear it.

The TV volume soon increased a little, "Is this volume okay?"

"It’s fine."

Faced with such an everyday scene, one she often saw at home back in the day, Lu Zhengzheng didn’t know how she managed to sit at the dining table.

Jiang Lingxi had just finished the crab roe bun Shen Yunqing brought her. She only tasted a few bites of the rice rolls and taro cheese buns brought by Lu Zhengzheng before standing up. When she saw Lu Zhengzheng was about to stand up as well, she placed a hand on her shoulder, "You finish eating. I’m heading out later; you can organize the clothes after breakfast."

Lu Zhengzheng nodded vigorously like a pecking chick. When Jiang Lingxi had walked a few steps, she remembered Tong Yue’s advice, "Zhengzheng sister, Sister Tong said on the day after tomorrow, during the fitting, you can choose from the outfits I brought. I’ll hang them at the front of the wardrobe later."

Jiang Lingxi gestured, "Sure, noted."

When she came out after changing in the master bedroom’s wardrobe, the dining table was clean, and the wardrobe door outside was closed.

Shen Yunqing noticed her gaze, "Your little assistant just finished breakfast and went back in."

Jiang Lingxi went to the wardrobe door and knocked; the door cracked open, revealing Lu Zhengzheng’s small head.

"We’re heading out now."

Lu Zhengzheng nodded hurriedly, "Okay, Zhengzheng sister, don’t worry about me. I’ll head back once I finish up here."

Inner thought: Finally, they’re leaving!

Even with a door between her and Mr. Shen, she couldn’t stop feeling nervous!

Wait, will Mr. Shen be living here from now on?

After all, they did get a marriage certificate.

If that’s the case, does it mean even if she stays late, she can’t sleep in the guest room anymore?

No, that’s not right. Mr. Shen should be staying with Zhengzheng sister in the master bedroom!

As Jiang Lingxi turned to leave, her sleeve was tugged. She turned, seeing Lu Zhengzheng ask in the smallest voice, "Zhengzheng sister, will Mr. Shen be staying here from now on?"

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

She couldn’t help but flick the girl’s forehead lightly, "What are you thinking? This is a special case. We have something to do together."

Meanwhile, she added in her mind: He probably wouldn’t even care for this small place; his courtyard alone is bigger than this entire apartment!

Lu Zhengzheng, one hand covering her forehead, quietly shut the door.

With a sigh of relief, also a bit of a small letdown.

Honestly, it’s normal for married people to live together; living separately is what’s unusual.

As for why they lived apart, she didn’t dare to ask.

Hearing the front door close, she sighed lightly, shook off random thoughts, and started organizing the clothes earnestly.

Downstairs.

After getting in the car, Jiang Lingxi noticed a small cargo van following shortly thereafter, "Who’s that vehicle behind us?"

"It’s for carrying luggage."

Jiang Lingxi: "...You really think of everything!"

"You’re welcome."

Recalling the plans made yesterday, Jiang Lingxi decisively shut her mouth.
