Two-Faced Husband, Have Some Decency!
chapter-336

After she removed her shoes and walked to the dining table, Ruan Danchen took the tiny folder and opened it. Qi Chenglin’s driver’s license was indeed in the folder. She looked at his license as she walked out of the apartment, and she felt that Qi Chenglin looked very handsome in his license picture.

Although his look in the picture was slightly different and less handsome than the actual person, it was much more good-looking than others’ ID photos.

She looked at the information printed below the photo and she saw Qi Chenglin’s birthday—May 22. Unexpectedly, that man’s horoscope was Libra. No wonder he behaved so peculiarly sometimes.

She found out that this month was his birth month, and she had to figure how to celebrate it as soon as possible.

Ruan Danchen walked out of the door with Qi Chenglin’s license and entered the elevator. She continued looking at his license since she had nothing else to do. Suddenly, she felt that it was unusual for him to leave his license on the dining table. He would often keep his license in his car, so why would it appear on the dining table this morning?

“…” Realization struck Ruan Danchen that he did not forget to take his license. Instead, he left his license on the dining table on purpose so that she would find out about his birthday.

Seriously! He could have told her directly if he wanted a birthday celebration.

Ruan Danchen got back in the car and gave him the license. Qi Chenglin took it with a cool expression without a word spoken. However, Ruan Danchen felt like his movements were quite pitiable as he kept away his license.

Nevertheless, she would still celebrate his birthday with him no matter what, so Ruan Danchen said, “Is this month your birth month?”

With raised eyebrows, Qi Chenglin turned his head and asked in astonishment, “How did you know?”

Still acting!

Ruan Danchen was speechless for a while before she said, “It’s stated on your driver’s license, I saw it just now.”

“Mhm,” replied Qi Chenglin before he turned his head and continued driving. She was unsure whether she saw it wrong, but she thought that she saw his lips curled slightly upward. Although he still maintained a cool expression, she felt like he was delighted.

Ruan Danchen took the sandwiches from the little boy. She ate the sandwich while taking out her phone to look at the calendar. “May 22 happens to be a Sunday. Since there’s no gathering at the old mansion, let’s celebrate your birthday at home.”

“Mhm.” She heard Qi Chenglin replied to her faintly.

…

…

Most of the students of Jixia School were from wealthy families and were sent to school by cars. The management of Jixia School considered that during the establishment of the school, hence a parking lot was built by utilizing a piece of land beside the school.

Qi Chenglin parked his car in the parking lot before he got out of the car and brought Qi Youxuan to the school’s entrance with Ruan Danchen. Parents were not permitted to enter the school compound unless activities were held in the school or during Open Day.

When they were walking toward the entrance, they saw many children who were also new students. The boys were wearing Zhongshan suit whereas the girls were wearing blue blouses and black skirts similar to the girls’ school uniforms during the early years of the Republic of China.

They stopped at the entrance. Qi Youxuan took out his Totoro kid’s phone and used his chubby little hands to hold it. He was using the phone’s screen as a mirror under the sunlight. After checking his appearance for a while, he raised his head and said, “Dad, Aunt Ruan, is my appearance okay?”

Qi Chenglin did not feel like responding to him—his narcissistic behavior bored him.

Ruan Danchen smiled at him and reassured him, “You look wonderful. I think you’re the most handsome boy among all the boys we met during the walk here.”

“I think so too.” Qi Youxuan grinned so happily that the corner of his mouth almost touched his ears.

“You should get moving. Aren’t you planning to make new friends?” urged Qi Chenglin.

Qi Youxuan hurriedly looked at the clock and waved his adorable hand at them. “Bye, Dad. Bye, Aunt Ruan.”

Ruan Danchen waved at him too. When Qi Youxuan turned his body around and walked toward the entrance, he bumped into Dai Zhiyao who was attending Ji Xia School too.

They stared at each other angrily because they were rivals in love. Qi Youxuan snorted rudely at him and looked away from him straight away. It was obvious that Qi Youxuan was ignoring him.

“…” Dai Zhiyao was speechless for quite some time before he turned his head and politely greeted Qi Chenglin and Ruan Danchen. He called them Uncle and Aunt.

Ruan Danchen had met him before when she fetched Qi Youxuan at the kindergarten previously, so she was familiar with him.

She then saw the little boy waving at them again from far away. He met a few old classmates from kindergarten and they were chatting happily as they walked together.

Ruan Danchen felt quite sad and tears welled up in her eyes when she saw Qi Youxuan’s figure became smaller as he walked further away from her.

Noticing that her mood had dropped all of a sudden, Qi Chenglin held her hand and lowered his head to ask, “What happened to you? You were alright just a moment ago.”

Ruan Danchen sniffed and held back her tears. She sobbed, “I feel that he’s growing up very quickly. Just now when I saw him walking toward the school, I feel that he’ll be a grown-up soon and will be an independent man. He’ll never depend on me and be so clingy like he is anymore. I truly hope that he’d never grow up and could stay by my side forever. I’m really afraid that after he grows up, we won’t be so intimate anymore.”

“Don’t think too much.” Qi Chenglin clutched her hands tightly. Qi Youxuan was already out of sight so he brought Ruan Danchen back to the car.

He took out some tissues from the glove compartment and gave them to Ruan Danchen to wipe her tears. Then, he said, “Why are you thinking so much now? Even if he grows up, has his own life and stops relying on us like he does now, that will only happen after many years. He’s only a six-year-old kid now, he’ll still be clingy and needs you to look after him. He still wants you to hug him while he’s asleep and tell him bedtime stories. We still have to wait for at least seven to eight years before he reaches a rebellious age.”

Qi Chenglin saw Ruan Danchen’s gloomy face and sighed. He carried her to his seat and kissed the corner of her eyes, then he teased her with his deep and husky voice, “Maybe we can give birth to another child if Youxuan stops being clingy in the future so that you still have his sisters and brothers to look after. The thing you regretted the most is that you missed the first six years of his life. You didn’t have the chance to see him when he was still a baby. During that time, he had the cutest appearance throughout his life. We can give birth to another child and let you have the chance to witness it.”

“That child will be different from Youxuan,” said Ruan Danchen quietly, no longer saddened. She raised her head to look at Qi Chenglin, never anticipating that he had thought about having another child.

Qi Chenglin was staring at her seriously with glowing eyes. “I’m serious,” he assured with his deep and mellow voice.

Ruan Danchen’s ears turned red and numb. She buried her face into the pit of his neck like an ostrich hiding from its predator.

Qi Chenglin smiled and hugged her for a while more. Then, he looked at the clock and said, “Do you want to leave now? You’re going to be late for work.”

After he said that, Ruan Danchen hurriedly checked the time and asked Qi Chenglin to let go of her.

Qi Chenglin pinched her softly and pecked her lips before letting go of her. He then started the car and drove to Chengshi.

When Ruan Danchen entered her office, she was almost late.

…

…

On May 22, it just so happened that Qi Chenglin had to work overtime at his company because some clients from S City came for a meeting. When he was leaving for work, he was very unhappy because he planned to stay at home and see how Ruan Danchen prepared for his birthday celebration.

“Just go quickly, the meeting will finish earlier if you go earlier. If you can’t make it at noon, then we can celebrate at night,” said Ruan Danchen at the doorway.

Qi Chenglin and Qi Youxuan had stayed in her small apartment for such a long time. As a result, they were used to it and had stopped feeling that her apartment was too cramped.

Qi Chenglin glanced at her unhappily and suddenly said, “I heard someone said that you were the one who gave Song Yu suggestions on how to celebrate Valentine’s Day and the celebration made my brother very happy?”

He did not know how exactly they celebrated it because Qi Chengzhi would never tell Qi Chenglin such intimate things, even though they were brothers.

However, when he met Qi Chengzhi on the next day after Valentine’s Day, Qi Chengzhi was rejuvenated, refreshed, and in a buoyant mood.

Qi Chenglin did not think too much about it at that time, merely asking a little curiously when they were chatting, “Did you enjoyed your Valentine’s Day celebration yesterday?”

Qi Chengzhi’s ebony eyes were filled with happiness. He glanced at Qi Chenglin delightedly and said proudly, “Mhm, Song Yu put a lot of effort into it.”

He found out it was Ruan Danchen’s idea when Song Yu unintentionally told others about it.

Ruan Danchen felt embarrassed when she recalled her idea.

In fact, she gave Song Yu very bold suggestions because Song Yu was the one who would carry out her plan, so she had no pressure at all.

When Qi Chenglin mentioned it, Ruan Danchen knew that she would not dare to carry out her own plans.

She heard Qi Chenglin asking again, “What did you suggest Song Yu do actually?”

“Nothing special, stop asking. Anyway, I already have some ideas for your birthday.” Ruan Danchen blushed and pushed him away. She then pulled his body toward her and stood on tiptoes to kiss him. As she could not reach his lips, she kissed his chin instead. “Drive safe.”

Qi Chenglin stared at her quietly and lowered his head to whisper beside her ears with his deep and hoarse voice, “I want a big present at night anyway.”

Ruan Danchen blushed immediately as Qi Chenglin turned around his body and left.

…

…

Since Qi Chenglin’s birthday fell on a school holiday, Qi Youxuan slept in. He woke up at around ten o’clock. Ruan Danchen prepared breakfast for her. After having breakfast, she told him that she was going to the supermarket to buy things for Qi Chenglin’s birthday celebration. Qi Youxuan immediately said he wanted to follow her.

He was more interested in supermarkets than in the playground now. There was so much delicious food sold there and he could shop the whole day. It was difficult to make him leave after he entered a supermarket.

Qi Youxuan intended to ask Ruan Danchen to buy him more tasty food when Qi Chenglin was not around as she would not have the heart to refuse.

Ruan Danchen agreed to bring him to the supermarket. When they were at the courtyard, they met Aunt Wu there who just came back from a grocery store and was dragging a small trolley filled with groceries. They greeted her.

Aunt Wu was startled for a while when she saw Ruan Danchen and Qi Youxuan holding hands.

Ruan Danchen’s neighbors had found out that Qi Chenglin and Qi Youxuan were staying at Ruan Danchen’s place, but Aunt Wu was curious why they were staying in Ruan Danchen’s cramped apartment like some poor guys if the Qi family truly owned Qilin as Qi Youxuan claimed in front of her.

Although she saw Qi Chenglin drove his Benz every day, maybe he was just living beyond his means.

She greeted Ruan Danchen and left without saying anything further.

Ruan Danchen brought Qi Youxuan to a supermarket and bought the ingredients needed to cook a meal for Qi Chenglin. She also bought some junk food for Qi Youxuan. Of course, Ruan Danchen did not pamper him by purchasing everything that he asked for. She stopped buying things for him when she thought she had bought enough.

Qi Youxuan was still in first grade now and the school had just started, so he did not have a great deal of homework. He was just idling at home today.

After they came back home, he saw Ruan Danchen took out the ingredients that she bought online for making a cake from a cabinet. He put down his toy and ran toward her and stared at her curiously.

Ruan Danchen explained, “I’m going to make a cake for your dad.”

“I’ll help you with it,” said Qi Youxuan. His eyes were still staring at the heap of fresh fruits and canned fruits continuously.

Ruan Danchen could not help but smile. She took a bowl and put all the fresh fruits and canned fruits into the bowl together and gave it to Qi Youxuan. Then, she let him taste one spoon of the cake that she was baking. “Here you go.”

The cake was being baked in the oven. Ruan Danchen was stirring the butter with an electronic egg beater, Qi Youxuan observing her actions by her side. After she finished stirring the butter, he could not help but extend his little arm to take some of the butter with his fingertips and put it into his mouth now and then. He narrowed his eyes delightedly due to the fragrant, sweet taste and the smooth texture of the butter.

After the cake was baked and cooled, she started decorating it with Qi Youxuan.

After thinking for a while, Qi Youxuan used a pastry bag filled with chocolate paste to draw three tiny people on the cake. It looked like a piece of abstract art as he only drew a few simple lines. Ruan Danchen could barely discern the appearance of three people from his drawing. One of the people had two straight lines at each side of the person’s somewhat elongated head, so Ruan Danchen guessed that person was a woman.

Then, he drew three chocolate dots on the face which represented the person’s eyes and mouth.

“…” Ruan Danchen felt that Qi Youxuan had many excellent qualities, but he was certainly not artistically talented.

Ruan Danchen could guess that he was drawing Qi Chenglin and her without needing him to tell her. The four crooked lines which were joined together represented them holding his tiny hands.

Ruan Danchen was touched and she stroked his tiny head. She could claim that Qi Youxuan also helped with baking the cake because she let Qi Youxuan complete the decoration of the cake even if it might not look all too charming in the end.

…

…

Qi Chenglin had lunch with his clients at noon. After they left Shengyue, his clients wanted to go to another place for some drinks, so Qi Chenglin asked Jiang Yuan to keep them company.

“Director Qi, let’s go together,” said one of his clients with a grin.

“I’m very sorry, today’s a special day because it’s my birthday. My family is waiting for me at home,” said Qi Chenglin nonchalantly.

“Really? Happy birthday, Director Qi. We don’t know about it, we won’t ask you to accompany us. Do return now,” said the client hurriedly.

Qi Chenglin nodded and asked Jiang Yuan to accompany them. He drove back to Prestige Residences.

He did not drink any alcohol at noon because his clients dared not force him to drink.

…

…

It was already three o’clock when he reached Prestige Residences. Ruan Danchen kept his cake in the refrigerator.

Qi Chenglin felt genuinely at peace as he entered the house. He was used to staying here so he did not feel that the house was small anymore. He thought that it was heart-warming for them to live in a cramped house as a family.

Ruan Danchen was taking an afternoon nap with Qi Youxuan. She woke up when she heard Qi Chenglin opened the door.

She glanced at Qi Youxuan, the little boy still sleeping soundly. The skin of his little face was rosy and his eyelashes looked so long when he closed his eyes.

She got out of bed quietly. She saw Qi Chenglin changing his shoes the moment she walked out of her room.

Qi Chenglin saw her half-awake face with a pair of drowsy eyes. After Qi Chenglin changed into a pair of slippers, he extended his arms to embrace her and kissed her especially soft lips because she just woke up.

“You were sleeping?” asked Qi Chenglin.

“I’m taking an afternoon nap with Youxuan.” Ruan Danchen blushed. She noticed that he did not smell of alcohol. “You didn’t drink any alcohol?”

“Aren’t you all going to celebrate my birthday?” Qi Chenglin still remembered. “I don’t want my body to smell like alcohol.”

“Go and get some rest first, I’ll cook dinner in a while,” said Run Danchen.

“What did you prepare?” Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows. He could not stop wondering about it throughout the day.

“I’ll tell you at night,” said Ruan Danchen but Qi Chenglin already dragged her into the bedroom.

The moment he closed the door, he pressed his body against her until her back touched the door. His usual honorable face was now smiling wickedly as he pressed his body against her forcibly. “At night?”

His lips curled into a sexy curve and he kissed her lips. “What surprises are you giving me at night?”

“Please talk properly, it’s not what you think it is.” Ruan Danchen was blushing.

“What did I say? I was just asking how you will celebrate my birthday at night?” said Qi Chenglin as he resisted the temptation to smile.

Ruan Danchen did not believe that Qi Chenglin was thinking that only, glaring at him unhappily. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Then, they heard Qi Youxuan talking outside. “Aunt Ruan, what are you doing? I saw an extra pair of shoes at the doorway, is Dad home?”

Ruan Danchen hurriedly tried to push him away but Qi Chenglin refused to let go of her, even kissing her lips straight away.

Ruan Danchen turned her head sideways so that she could talk, but Qi Chenglin conveniently started to kiss her neck as she turned her head after he rubbed his blisteringly hot and tender lips against her lips.

Ruan Danchen trembled as her skin was feeling extremely numb after being kissed by him.

She saw that Qi Chenglin did not intend to reply to Qi Youxuan, so she could only try hard to maintain a steady voice and said, “Mhm, he just came back. He’s changing his clothes now.”

As she was talking, Qi Chenglin suddenly retreated and stopped kissing her.

“Oh,” replied Qi Youxuan and he walked away to do something else.

Ruan Danchen heaved a sigh of relief. When she looked at Qi Chenglin, she found out that he had removed his shirt in such a short while. His muscular upper body was revealed and he was taking off his pants.

“What are you doing?!” asked Ruan Danchen with a reddened face as she opened her eyes wide.

“I’m changing clothes, isn’t that what you told him?” Qi Chenglin’s pants dropped to the floor as he talked.

He was just wearing a pair of underpants now. He had broad shoulders and slim bottoms, his six-pack very distinct and firm. He had a pair of long legs that looked straight and powerful. His sexy physique was extremely masculine.

Ruan Danchen felt that even male underwear models were not as attractive as him. She could see his underpants were filled with something eye-catching.

She blushed furiously and her heart was beating rapidly. She really wanted to throw herself at him and tear off that last piece of cloth!

Ruan Danchen dared not stay in the room any longer because this guy was exceptional in seducing her. She turned around and opened the door and ran out of the room.

Qi Chenglin did not stop her. He smiled involuntarily and changed into leisurewear.

After she ran out of the bedroom, Ruan Danchen went into the washroom and used her hands to fan her face as she looked in the mirror. She was very embarrassed when she recalled that she almost failed to get out of the room. If she stayed for a while more, she would throw herself at Qi Chenglin even if he did not take the initiative.

She looked in the mirror and stuck out her tongue in disdain. “So horny!”

After she calmed down a little, she went to the kitchen and drank a large glass of cool water. Then, she started to prepare dinner.

The sky had turned dark by the time she finished cooking dinner.

Ruan Danchen asked Qi Youxuan to ask Qi Chenglin to come to the dining hall, who then came and sat at the dining table. It felt inharmonious as he sat in her cramped dining hall with his proud expression.
