My Wife Is Dominant

Chapter 48



Chapter 48 A Family Party Ahead of Time
After work, Wang Weixi drove to pick up his wife. When she saw him, she jumped for joy like a child.

“Honey, I’ve learned how to make scrambled eggs today~” Chen Kexin burrowed her head into Wang Weixi’s chest the moment she walked out and said proudly.

Wang Weixi touched her hair and said gently, “Honey, you’re really brilliant.” In the meantime, he wondered, “Why does it take her a whole afternoon to learn how to make such a simple, easy dish?” He chose not to speak his thought as he did not want to hurt his wife’s pride.

When Chen Kexin nodded smilingly at Wang Weixi, Lan Xiao stepped out. Wang Weixi did not feel hostile toward him after the meeting at noon. They greeted each other cordially, and Lan Xiao smiled even more brightly when seeing Chen Kexin in Wang Weixi’s arms. “Kexin has never cooked before, so when she said that she wanted to learn pork ribs soup, I refused. I just taught her a simple dish today, hehe,” Lan Xiao said gently.

Wang Weixi looked at Chen Kexin, his eyes full of love. “Um, thank you. Kexin is a little clumsy. I used to teach her how to cook, but she got burned accidentally. This accident made me feel guilty for quite a long time,” said Wang Weixi.

Upon hearing that, Lan Xiao thought, “No wonder Chen Kexin came with a wounded thumb when she first met me.

“I tried my best to appear calm on the surface at that time, but I did feel somewhat upset inside. I thought that Wang Weixi had forced her to learn something that she didn’t like, but now it looks like that was not the case.

“Otherwise, how can she look so happy now?”

“Honey, I’m smart and capable, aren’t I?” Chen Kexin asked in a sweet voice.

“Yes, you are. Well, let’s go home. I’ll cook for you,” Wang Weixi said smilingly.

They said goodbye to Lan Xiao, got into their car and left.

Lan Xiao stood in the place, seeing the car speed away. Somehow, he felt much calmer than before. He even thought that it was ridiculous for him to felt jealous and unhappy with Wang Weixi.

“They look happy. That’s enough,” thought Lan Xiao.

He turned around and saw a group of housewives walk toward him. Some of them began to gossip.

“Mr. Lan, who’s that girl? Is she married? Is that man her husband? I nearly mistook her for your girlfriend,” a woman came up and asked.

Lan Xiao smiled embarrassedly. The housewives gazed at him, giving him lots of pressure.

“Mr. Lan, you’re still single, aren’t you? If so, my sister still has a chance~”

“Mr. Lan, how come a handsome and successful man like you is still single?”

This was the first time that Lan Xiao had regretted having started this female-oriented business.

“Mr. Lan, I heard that you own several very famous French restaurants beside this business. Is that true?”

“Mr. Lan, my sister is pretty and she’s also a very nice person.”

Lan Xiao could only smile embarrassedly at them again and again.

Soon enough, it was evening.

The moment Wang Weixi and Chen Kexin reached their door, they got a call from Chen Derong.

After talking with Chen Derong on the phone, Wang Weixi looked grim. “Honey, what’s up?” Chen Kexin asked with curiosity. “What did my dad tell you?”

“Your Dad asked us to go to his villa right now,” replied Wang Weixi.

“Why?” Chen Kexin asked, her eyes full of surprise.

“Uhm, he said that as all your aunts have arrived by now, the family party will begin ahead of the scheduled time,” replied Wang Weixi. He felt somewhat worried about Chen Kexin when he thought of her reaction when she first heard Chen Keren tell her about this family party.

Chen Kexin remained silent for a moment and then said smilingly, “Well, let’s go.”

Wang Weixi frowned slightly and asked, “Are you okay with it?”

Chen Kexin shook her head and said, “I’m alright. I’m just worried that my aunts will give you a hard time. If they do, honey, please keep calm.” Now she did not look so simple and naive like before. She seemed to take this very seriously.

Wang Weixi nodded to her, and then they left their apartment together.

The wind was cold in the evening. Wang Weixi drove the car while listening to Chen Kexin telling the stories about her aunts.

Chen Kexin’s grandfather was a famous entrepreneur and the owner of an A-share listed company, which occupied a leading position in the services industry. He had five daughters and a son. This son was Chen Kexin’s father Chen Derong.

As the only son of the family, Chen Derong could have inherited his father’s enterprise. However, he had lost this chance and nearly gotten cut off by his father because he insisted on marrying Chen Kexin’s mother Ni Ya.

Back then, all his five sisters had chosen to support their father. They disapproved of Chen Derong’s marriage and refused to attend his wedding. In the end, their father let his five daughters inherit his hotels after his death and left Chen Derong only a sum of money.

After inheriting hotels from their father, Chen Kexin’s aunts still refused to let her mother off. They despised this poor woman and thought that she brought their brother bad luck. They tried their best to make things difficult for her. In the beginning, Chen Derong did everything possible to protect her, but later when he became increasingly busy in his business and heard too many slanderous talks about her, he began to hate her as well. In the end, Ni Ya committed suicide, and Chen Derong became a very different person.

When Chen Kexin talked about these unhappy memories, her voice was absolutely toneless. She sounded as if she was talking about a mere trifle, such as a newly-opened noodle restaurant on some street. Despite that, Wang Weixi could still tell that she was sad, since she had never talked about anything in such a tone in front of him before.

It made Wang Weixi’s heart ache to see Chen Kexin behave like that, and now he finally understood why Chen Keren always called her father by his name Chen Derong instead of calling him “Dad”. He felt somewhat sad as he wondered, “Does that Keren still have a grudge against her father?

“Kexin and Keren have gone through so many difficulties since childhood. Is that the reason for Kexin’s Self-abandonment? (Well, she’s really good for nothing.) And is the hatred toward her father the reason for Keren’s strong will to make herself strong? Is that why she chose to leave her father and live on her own?”

“I’m afraid that my aunts will give you a hard time. Honey… If you’re really upset, you can talk back. I’m okay with it. I don’t care about my aunts at all!” Chen Kexin clenched her fists and said grumpily.

Wang Weixi could not help but giggle. “I’ll be alright, honey. Don’t worry about me,” he touched Chen Kexin’s head gently and said.

Chen Kexin lowered her head and remained silent, looking unusually somber.

After a while, Wang Weixi said gently, “If you have time, let’t go to visit your mother’s grave someday.”

Chen Kexin was stunned and turned to look at Wang Weixi, who was driving intently at the moment. Somehow, she felt that her heart was warmed. “Okay,” she nodded and said smilingly.

Wang Weixi’s lips curled into a smile.

When they reached Chen Derong’s villa, Wang Weixi watched the spectacle, mouth agape.

Right in front of the villa parked six luxury cars. Chen Keren’s car was also among them. Beside Chen Keren’s Volvo, the other five cars were all Lamborghini.

Wang Weixi felt quite embarrassed to park his car beside those fancy cars. “So are all Chen Kexin’s aunts super rich? That’s quite a lot of pressure,” he thought worriedly,

Upon seeing those cars, Chen Kexin said with contempt, “I hate those women. They always act so ostentatiously wherever they are.” She did not know much about cars but was familiar with her aunts’ cars, as they always flaunted their cars in front of her and scoffed at her life and tastes. They often said that Chen Kexin was as frumpy as her mother Ni Ya.

Wang Weixi parked his car and thought, “Well, as long as I come, I have to face it. I never want to compare myself to them, and as they despise Kexin’s mother so much, they won’t like me no matter what I wear or drive.”

With this in mind, he felt much calmer.

“Let’s get into the villa,” Wang Weixi held Chen Kexin’s hand and said gently.

Chen Kexin nodded, and then they walked into the main hall of the villa together. The atmosphere there was quite awkward.

The moment he stepped into the hall, Wang Weixi saw Chen Derong sit at the top of an extra long dining table and his five sisters sit on both sides of the table. To his surprise, he did not see Chen Keren there.

Chen Kexin frowned slightly and asked, “Where’s Keren?” Wang Weixi turned his face to glance at her. She looked like a different person at this moment.
