  • Everyday, Boss Is Pretending To Be Weak

    Chapter 6 Returning home to meet the elders

    He Zhou sat at the balcony, absorbing the essence of the sun that had just come out of the horizon. Warm and harmonious Inner Xi slowly flowed, continuously forming his veins and bones. 

    Footsteps sounded behind him and he withdrew his aura and turned around to see Wen Renyi facing him. A ray of light passed through the French window, plating a mandarin orange color on his face, Wen Renyi looked calm as he informed him. “Breakfast is ready.”

    Speaking of this, He Zhou felt a bit embarrassed.

    Yesterday night, when he helped Wen Renyi relieve some pain, Wen Renyi suddenly woke up abruptly and his eyes were different. Faint purple mist lingered under his white cataracts and when He Zhou was about to ponder why, that purple mist suddenly disappeared.

    Wen Renyi knit his brows. “Sorry, did I disturb you?”

    He Zhou did not want to stir any trouble so the two people soon lied down in silence. As daylight quickly approached, He Zhou quickly got off the bed silently for the sun’s purple cloud (T/N: auspicious portent in astrology), and wanted to go to the balcony to practice martial arts. Afterwards, Wen Renyi was startled awake and seeing him already up, he simply went to make breakfast. 

    How could He Zhou let a blind person cook? So he offered to do it but when he was faced with a modern set of kitchen utensils, he felt helpless in the face of crisis.

    Wen Renyi seemed to have noticed his predicament and walked into the room with ease and started working. “You woke up early to practice right? Then just let me handle this.”

    “Do you have some time today?” Wen Renyi wiped his mouth. “The family head wanted me to bring you home.”

    “For what?”

    Wen Renyi stood up and lightly said. “They just wanted to see you. If you’re not willing to, I will refuse them.”

    He Zhou thought for a moment. He found out from the original body owner that this world was not safer than the world he came from. He needed to control more information to secure his own safety. Looking at Wen Renyi’s expression, he seemed to dislike the Wen Family. As Wen Renyi’s legal partner, he definitely had to accompany him back to keep up appearances. After all, the secular world had a saying that the bride had to return to her parental home, this time, accompanying him home must be in compliance in this sense.

    “I’ll go back with you then.” He Zhou saw that he was about to collect the dishes and hurriedly stopped him. “Let me do it.”

    The two people’s fingertips touched. Wen Renyi couldn’t help but take a step back and lowered his eyebrows. “Alright.”

    He Zhou glanced at his ear, it seem to have flown into a blush.

    He set the bowl into the kitchen and couldn’t help but laugh, having such a shy wife didn’t feel bad.

    He Zhou finished washing the bowl and headed back to the bedroom. He saw Wen Renyi already dressed neatly. He donned the usual suit and tie and his hair was combed with spirit, revealing a good-looking forehead. Hearing He Zhou enter the room. He “looked” at him and said. “I’ll go out first, you change your clothes.”

    He Zhou’s identity was still a student so he didn’t dress as formally and only donned a short sleeved T-shirt and casual jeans, looking very youthful.

    The Wen Family’s home was built on a hill outside Jing City and the reason why it was built here was because the previous owner felt that the mountain was far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and could therefore practice martial arts in a more peaceful manner.

    The car went went around several large circles only to finally stop at the Wen Family’s doors.

    He Zhou got off the car and quickly walked around to Wen Renyi’s side. He helped him open the door, before extending his hand to him and said. “Be careful getting off.”

    The driver and bodyguard at the side were a bit stunned. Wen Renyi sitting inside the car was also startled for a moment, this feeling of being cared for and protected was strange but not annoying. 

    He stretched his hand out and placed it on He Zhou’s.

    That hand was white and slender, the joints distinctive and exuded a pampered aristocratic atmosphere, He Zhou squeezed it slightly, his right hand leaning on the roof of the door as he supported Wen Renyi off the car.

    “Cousin really found a good husband, such meticulous care really makes me envious.”A few people came from the mountain road came across this scene. The person who spoke out was a 30 year old guy who looked handsome but his words sounded really sour.

    “Didn’t I say so before, even though Cousin can’t practice martial arts but he can still mix well with people, Master He also can’t practice martial arts but he knows how to take care of people.” Another 20 something year old youth echoed, his gaze scratching He Zhou’s face, 

    Wen Renyi’s hands moved slightly.

    He Zhou squeezed them in place and facing the other party’s cynicism, he slowly said. “The Wen Family’s manners are really something to learn from. Ah Yi exhausted his thoughts and ingenuity to allow you to wear brand names and drive luxury cars but in my eyes, he has been feeding a group of white-eyed wolves.”

    He Zhou rarely got angry but seeing Wen Renyi bullied by these people, he could not help but feel displeased in his heart. 

    The bodyguards as well as the Wen Family people heard this and their face showed cracks. Ah Yi? Who the hell is that? Who didn’t know that Wen Renyi’s natural disposition was apathetic, icily arrogant and could not stand dust in his eyes. He was never close with anyone.  Before, when he was proud and high up, he practically did not even give them a look, now that Wen Renyi was without martial arts, all they did was spit a few sour words to seek comfort. 

    But looking at the situation now, the always cold-hearted Wen Renyi actually pretended to be weak in front of He Zhou, making it seem like they were evil tyrants bullying the weak.

    “I’m fine.” Wen Renyi turned around to “look” at He Zhou, and using his fingertips to rub his palm.

    He Zhou looked at his expression of pretending not to care, and he didn’t know why but there was a sour taste in his heart. However, this was still the Wen Family’s place so he couldn’t say much. “Then let’s head right in.”

    The Wen Family home was built simply and elegant. Once He Zhou entered the courtyard, he felt a quiet calm like entering the Pure Land. Although the difference with the Shen Yun Sect was large, but compared with the He Family’s position, it was better by a lot.

    The two people entered the hall, followed by the Wen Family sons who then dispersed, going back to their respective fathers’ side.   The situation in the hall fell into He Zhou’s eyes, as he stared at the white haired old man sitting in the middle. He looked hale and hearty in spirit. He Zhou’s godly senses swept through him and sensed that he was already in the Xiantian Early Stage Realm.

    On the old man’s left and right sat the other elders of the Wen Family, their gazes fell on He Zhou and Wen Renyi’s figures, carrying a measuring and inquisitive look.

    Everyone here were practitioners. Their ears were sharp and their eyes clear. They had heard everything that happened outside clearly. Wen Renshi looked at Wen Renyi, “Ah Yi, don’t put their words to heart.”

    Wen Renyi replied with “En.”

    He Zhou looked at those people triumphantly looking at himself, as if to say his fight for justice was completely meaningless. He looked towards Wen Renyi, whose face was calm with not a single hint of loneliness, sadness or any other emotion. Had he been hurt so much he had gotten used to it?
