This is chapter 4 in the raws and it continues directly after “chapter 12” that someone else did.
Chapter IV
Yi Yang and Xu Xinyi just came out of the library, and Butler Chen walked in with a smile.
Butler Chen had been working for the Yi family since he was young. Now, he had stuck with the Yi family until all of his hair turned white. It could be said that he watched Yi Yang grow up.
Mrs. Yi was sitting on the sofa, rubbing her eyebrows. She had just said those words to the couple, and now her brain was bursting with pain.
Ridiculous!
“Butler Chen, you have Yi Yang and Xinyi’s room cleaned up. When Old Master comes back, they will stay at home for a while.”
“That’s good,” Chen said with a loving smile. “The Old Master will be glad to know. I’ll arrange it now.”
“Wait a minute!” Mrs. Yi stopped Butler Chen, who wanted to go out, and thought for a moment, “before the Old Master comes back, you need to throw away all the entertainment magazines in the house. Not one of them is allowed to appear in front of the Old Master. Do not allow the Old Master to know all the news about Xinyi on TV.”
Xu Xinyi had a terrible reputation in the entertainment circle. Everyone in the Yi family knew that except the Old Master, who had been secluded and recuperating for the past two years.
“The Old Master just recovered and the doctor said that he can’t get too much stimulation. Please pay more attention to it. Don’t let the rumors outside spread to the Old Master.
Before her words even fell, Yi Yang’s angry and out-of-control voice thundered from the hallway: “Xu Xinyi!!!”
The two paused for a moment, stunned.
However, Butler Chen quickly regained his composure and said with a smile, “It sounds like the young master and the young madam are playing again.”
Mrs. Yi sighed and gnashed teeth, “Those two! Are they enemies? Nevermind, you go. “
Butler Chen left with a smile.
————
That night, Yi Yang and Xu Xinyi stayed in the Yi estate.
They had lived in the Yi estate when they were just married to keep the elders company. Later, when the Old Master fell ill and secluded himself at the sanatorium on the mountain for recovery, the couple moved to an apartment in the city center with the excuse that it was more convenient for work.
And, although the couple lived together, Yi Yang was always busy with work while Xu Xinyi was filming outside all year round. She was often absent for a month or two at a stretch. So while the couple lived together in name the actual amount of time spent together was not much.
Now, being forced to live together at the Yi estate, Yi Yang was, of course, unwilling, and whatever unwillingness he feels it can be said that Xu Xinyi was feeling double that amount. But she couldn’t show even a little resistance, on the contrary, she had to show an appearance of ecstasy and expectation.
This made Xu Xinyi very sad.
Fortunately, Xu Xinyi was not a person who courted unnecessary trouble. She had been here for two years already. It was OK to endure a little more.
It’s just that she found the situation a little strange. Since Yi Yang was ready to split up his property and had the divorce agreement in hand, why did he suddenly back out just before signing the papers?
“Xiao A, why do you suppose that bastard suddenly went back on his words? In theory, he shouldn’t do such a thing. “
I don’t know that either. But I suggest to the host to refrain from swearing, it’s not good.
“Don’t get me wrong. I don’t swear in ordinary times.” Xu Xinyi removed her makeup in front of the mirror and looked at the charming face inside. Seeing her beauty, her mood was very good. “Except for Yi Yang, this asshole, only someone of his level is worthy of my special treatment.”
After taking off her makeup and taking a bath, Xu Xinyi made a slow turn in front of the body-length mirror.
She sighed. Such a good figure and face were wasted in front of Yi Yang’s cheap eyes.
When she stepped out of the bathroom, Xu Xinyi saw Yi Yang, who was sitting on the sofa and seemed focused on reading, he was wearing casual home clothes, and his hair was still slightly damp from the shower. Xu Xinyi couldn’t help but think that this Yi Yang, who had taken off his suit, was less domineering and invincible as compared to the Yi Yang who swaggered about during the daytime, and even seemed more affable.
Xu Xinyi thought it out in an instant.
No divorce, no divorce? He doesn’t want a divorce? Well, she has these two days to make him regret, right?
What’s the trouble?
To make a person, or more specifically, a man hate her, that was really the simplest thing, wasn’t it?
She walked up quickly and nimbly snatched the magazine he was reading from Yi Yang’s hands and sat down on Yi Yang’s thigh before quietly tugging at her sleeve and half-exposing her fragrant shoulder.
Xu Xinyi used all of her ability as an actress, pinched her throat, and said coyly. “Husband, what are you looking at?”
When a man hates you, everything you do is wrong.
Let alone such bold and explicit behavior.
Xu Xinyi was such a beautiful girl, if she acted so coquettishly in front of other men, then nine of ten men just wouldn’t be able to resist, but Yi Yang was not an ordinary man. This man had a heart of stone and had hated Xu Xinyi for a long time.
Although Xu Xinyi had not yet worked out why Yi Yang disliked her so much.
But that didn’t matter.
“Get down.” Yi Yang didn’t touch her at all, his expression was stoic, and his tone was so cold it made Xu Xinyi feel as if she was plunged into a world of ice and snow.
Xu Xinyi could feel the anger and rage that he was forcibly suppressing under his expressionless face.
I will not move if the enemy does not move, she thought impishly.
Xu Xinyi lazily opened the magazine and spread it out on his thigh. It was an academic magazine and she couldn’t understand the English contents at all. But she saw a photo of a scholarly woman wearing glasses printed inside.
“Husband, are you looking at her? Then, do you think she is beautiful or I am? “
A great scholarly beauty would tend to only use beautiful words and flowery verses to indirectly ask such a question, but Xu Xinyi is really superficial and can only say it out directly.
For Yi Yang, who reads academic magazines, this type of unrestrained question will only cause his disgust and disdain for Xu Xinyi to deepen.
Yi Yang didn’t want to talk to her at all, so he reached out and mercilessly lifted her off of his body and tossed her to the side.
Xu Xinyi stumbled and collapsed onto the sofa in a heap. The posture she suddenly found herself in was completely without any image or dignity. Angrily, she glared at Yi Yang.
But thinking of all the water in Yi Yang’s brain, she decided she didn’t care about him.
“Honey, don’t do that. Just now, mother talked to me. She said that grandpa was not in good health and she wanted us to let grandpa hold his great-grandson earlier.” Xu Xinyi spoke in an ambiguous tone and sent him a sultry wink – her meaning very obvious.
——“Quickly, quickly push me away, point to my nose and scold me severely, and say,” Xu Xinyi, don’t think I will touch you if you bring my grandfather’s name out. I will not touch you even if I have no children or grandchildren in my life “! Then push the door and walk away, have a big fight with your mother, and threaten with the relationship between mother and son. You must divorce me! “
While Xu Xinyi was waiting joyfully, Yi Yang’s face had turned blue.
He didn’t know why Xu Xinyi could predict his thoughts so well, and before he heard Xu Xinyi’s thoughts, he had really wanted to do so. But when he heard Xu Xinyi’s thoughts, he calmed down inexplicably, rubbed his forehead where a headache was raging and wanted to crack, and just stepped away and said: “you just stand there, don’t come here, just stand there and don’t say anything.”
——“Why doesn’t this bastard play according to common sense?”
Although she thought so in her heart, her mouth was caring and attentive, “honey, are you ok? Is it a headache? Do you want me to rub it for you? “
“No!” Yi Yang took a deep breath and looked at Xu Xinyi’s face that was plastered with “worry” and ill-concealed excitement and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Although he didn’t understand why Xu Xinyi was so abnormal, Yi Yang was not in the mood to understand too much.
The Old Master would be back soon and he was not in good health and couldn’t be stimulated too much. Moreover, with the Old Master’s love for Xu Xinyi, he would never stand for it if Yi Yang brought up divorce.
Thinking of how his mother scolded him today plus how the Old Master would react, Yi Yang felt helpless. Since no one in the family is willing to see them divorce except themselves, it seems the marriage will have to remain for the time being.
And that being the case, he wanted to see what the hell Xu Xinyi was doing!
The clock slowly pointed to half-past nine.
The Yi’s old family estate was located in the famous Shuiwan villa area, surrounded by lakes and mountains, far away from the urban area, and the surrounding environment was very quiet.
So, the whole room was only filled with the quiet rustling of the pages of Yi Yang’s book.
After the first round of both provoking and seducing failed, Xu Xinyi held the quilt and decided to continue to work hard.
“Honey, it’s late. We should go to bed.”
She slipped into the quilt, briefly ran her fingers through her long hair, then “accidentally” lifted the quilt on one side, and exposed a section of her white and delicate thigh. The move was sexy and provocative.
These two days, it seemed that Yi Yang’s patience was frayed and it was nearing his bottom line, but who was Yi Yang? As a young man, he had followed his experienced grandfather around the upper society that was like a battlefield. Which one of those women he met in that past was not a thousand-year-old fox? His patience was different from an ordinary man’s.
But since Yi Yang can bear so much, Xu Xinyi really wanted to see exactly how much he could endure.
And when he finally can’t bear it any longer, that will be the day of their divorce!
Despite the magazine he was reading, Yi Yang couldn’t help seeing the “fragrant” scene on top of the bed. His eyes slightly darkened, his eyebrows felt strangely heavy, and his cool palms suddenly heated up inexplicably, like he was holding a fire, it burned quickly from his palms, up his arms, and then swept out, spiraling and spreading all over his body.
But only for a moment. With his iron will he forced himself to look away.
“Put your clothes on.”
Xu Xinyi smiled, “what clothes does a person wear to sleep?” She patted her side and winked.
She could almost guess what Yi Yang was thinking.
——“The son of a bitch must be thinking, “even if I sleep on the ground, on the sofa, or on the windowsill today, I will never share a bed with Xu Xinyi!” ‘or’ is this woman shameless enough to seduce me? Woman, I won’t be fooled by you! “
During two years of marriage, Xu Xinyi and Yi Yang had been together less and had been separated more. In addition, Yi Yang had always disliked her and was prejudiced against her. He was unwilling to sleep in the same bed with her.
She remembered the first night after their marriage, Yi Yang had looked at her calmly and had told her that he would never love her nor touch her for his whole life. Then he had left. That night, he worked all night in his study.
Later, after moving out of the Yi estate, Yi Yang would always rather sleep in the guest room than in the master bedroom, or he would stay in a hotel rather than coming home, as if she were some sort of scourge, always avoiding her and leaving her to live like a widow.
But now, at present, there was only one bed in the room.
According to Yi Yang’s style, he should be going to another room to sleep.
——“Don’t you always dislike me? Get angry! Then go to the guest room to sleep.”
Her feelings are actually very simple. Yi Yang is not happy, she is happy. Yi Yang is happy, she is not happy.
Hearing Xu Xinyi’s thoughts, Yi Yang stepped forward slowly and stood on the edge of the bed, he gloomily looked at her in a silence that stretched out uncomfortably long.
Their four eyes stared unswervingly into each other and, after thinking for about five seconds, Yi Yang resolutely pulled open the quilt, then climbed into the bed.
He also took away most of Xu Xinyi’s quilts.
Xu Xinyi’s body was mostly naked. When the cold wind blew, she shivered.
There was silence in the room.
“!!!”
Xu Xinyi didn’t expect that Yi Yang’s aversion to herself seemed to have decreased? For the first time in two years, he was willing to sleep in a bed with her? But, looking at him, his face was crumpled and he looked as if he had eaten a fly.
How could he tolerate it?
“Husband…”
Yi Yang opened his eyes. “Sleep.” He commanded.
Then he closed his eyes.
Xu Xinyi lay down timidly.
It was a little cold.
Xu Xinyi held a corner of the quilt and pulled it over herself little by little.
The pulled quilt carried the faint warmth of a man.
Of course, she didn’t really care about sleeping with Yi Yang, but…
——“It’s said that young men are energetic and vigorous. This bastard hadn’t had women for so many years, what if he suddenly becomes enlightened at night and then wants to make a move on me?”
——”He won’t suddenly become a beast will he?”
——”But if there was such a beast, what should I do? Should I resist? Or…?”
——”…no, I can’t let this man spoil my pure body.”
Xu Xinyi held the quilt and quietly scooted away from Yi Yang.
Warning: Host’s “deep love” character setting is about to collapse, please remedy!
“……” Xu Xinyi stealthily scooted back to her original position.
If the enemy doesn’t move, then I won’t move. So be it.
As long as Yi Yang doesn’t do anything, I can just sleep.
And if he really dares to do something…
Xu Xinyi’s eyes flashed and fell on the bedside table lamp. Should work as a bludgeon in a pinch, so she should be fine.
But just as she was drifting off to sleep, the quilt was suddenly flung open.
Xu Xinyi was shocked at first, then she sat up with the quilt in her arms and looked at Yi Yang with frightened eyes.
——“I knew it! Here comes that son of a bitch, he finally couldn’t hold back!”
——“But when it’s over… What if I get pregnant? The divorce will definitely disappear. Then, when I have the baby, I’ll lose my figure and my beauty. Meanwhile, the dog man will continue to flirt outside, only thinking to come home when he wants to beat me, scold me, and humiliate me! “
——”No, no, I can’t be wronged like this!”
——”He’s a beast! A beast in clothes! “
Yi Yang stood up without saying a word and turned his back to Xu Xinyi. His face was pale and taut with anger where Xu Xinyi could not see.
Listen, is Xu Xinyi thinking human words?
She’s really thinking too much?
Is she crazy?
Does he really seem so hungry?
Yi Yang regretted it. He should have divorced Xu Xinyi as soon as possible. He should not have let his curiosity get the better of him and cause him to procrastinate!
There was no movement for a while.
“Are you…?” But after letting those two words slip, Xu Xinyi felt a little ambiguous, so she swallowed that thought and asked: “husband, what’s the matter with you?”
“You said, you don’t want to divorce me, do you?”
Xu Xinyi nodded unconsciously, “yes.”
Yi Yang turned around and forced his anger down. His eyes were dim and gloomy as he stared at Xu Xinyi.
Since he was standing he towered over her and she felt pressed down by his large shadow. Yi Yang’s eyes glinted and showed their sharpness. He looked her up and down, quietly calculated for a while, and said, “well, let’s make three rules.”
Xu Xinyi faintly felt a bad premonition. It seemed that Yi Yang’s eyes are hostile. There was no way he was up to anything good.
Her reason told her she can’t agree, and Yi Yang shouldn’t be allowed to go on. But she couldn’t stop him.
“Three rules?” she whispered
“First, you are not allowed to take any roles with bed scenes, kiss scenes, or any scenes where you have an intimate relationship with a man.”
Xu Xinyi was surprised and hurriedly refuted, “no, honey, I’m an actor. The most important thing for an actor is their professionalism. The script is written by the director. I have to do what the director wants me to do. Besides, the kissing and bed scenes are harmless in the film and television circle. Everyone…”
“I’m not asking for your advice. I’ll go through your scripts later.”
——“I will endure!”
Yi Yang raised his eyebrows. “Second, you are not allowed to get too close to other actors and stars in the future. You should be careful. Please remember that you are 27 years old.”
——“…… Killing is against the law, killing is against the law, Xu Xinyi, you should be calm. You must not fall short at this time. For a gentleman, ten years isn’t too late for revenge. Don’t argue with a 28-year-old man! Don’t get excited, don’t get excited! “
“Third,” Yi Yang’s eyes were fixed on her, just like a cheetah’s eyes fixed on its prey, watching her every move, “no swearing!”
Xu Xinyi countered subconsciously, “when did I swear?”
——”Is this son of a bitch deliberately messing with me?”
——”Son of a bitch, I’ll scold you every day of your life! What’s the matter! “
Yi Yang closed his eyes and endured, again and again, he gnashed his teeth and forced out one word at a time: “If you agree, then I can consider not divorce you for the time being.”
With a smile on her face, Xu Xinyi asked Xiao A, “Can I knock on this bastard’s head off?”
No, in front of your husband, you can’t break the “deep love” character setting.
Xu Xinyi endured again and again, and finally, in front of Yi Yang, she smiled and gave thanks, with burning feeling in her heart that she wanted to crack this man’s dog head, she accepted the Treaty of Humiliation and with a warm smile on her face and barely audible grinding of teeth.
“OK, honey, I promise you everything. As long as you don’t divorce me, I will promise you anything!
——“Is there anything in the room that I can use to crack this son of a bitch’s head?”
Xu Xinyi’s eyes wandered around the room, she looked at a vase on the table and thought about the possibility of picking it up and smashing it down on his dog head.
Yi Yang’s face sank as he watched her staring at the vase.
“Besides, like I said, I’m not interested in you. Your body is no different from the auntie at the food market, so please don’t flatter yourself.”
His eyes fell on Xu Xinyi’s semi-exposed shoulders. Her shoulders were white and round and her collarbone was beautiful and tantalizing with the collar down. The sight was more than a little provocative.
Xu Xinyi choked.
——“Such a pitiful bastard. He’s blind at a young age.”
——”If you have ability, then go and sleep with the food market auntie. You bastard!”**
Yi Yang’s eyes darkened and he shook his head. “I’m going to the guest room to sleep.”
But after he opened the door, outside the door stood a smiling servant, who asked: “Young master, young madam, the madam sent me to ask you, do you need a midnight snack?”
——“Have a snack! Ha ha, son of a bitch! Go eat shit!
Yi Yang raised his voice and said angrily, “Won’t eat!”
**I had no idea about this line. I looked at the MTLs from a dozen different sites and diced the Chinese characters up a dozen different ways and nothing remotely makes sense. In the end, I don’t speak Chinese so… sorry. UPDATED(5/24) Fixed with the help of commenter ‘月凤‘ thank you to them!
Well, there it is, one chapter machine “translated” by me.
Please continue translating this. I think the translation was quite smooth
Thank you for this! Really funny!
I didn’t notice this was mtl 😮
it looks good, I started this novel today and I’m liking it so far, thanks for the chapter *praying for more*
Your translation was smooth.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for picking this up. I find the central premise of this novel interesting, but the ML is truly, deeply, pissing me off. He is a complete and utter jerk and I hope he changes soon. Some authors mistake ‘inconsiderate psycopath’ for ‘dreamily dominant’ and I don’t yet know if this is one of them.
Thanks for the translation!
扑街 seems to mean “f*ck you” or “go to h*ll”, so she’s basically just cussing him out.
那你有本事和菜市场大妈睡觉啊你个死扑街 >> If you have ability, then go and sleep with the food market auntie. You bastard!
Thanks so much for your input. Sorry it took so long for me to approve your comment, WordPress marked it as spam at first and I didn’t see it.
Wow this story seems super great so far!! I LOVE the MC! But the ML is way too much, his requirements are so restrictive…
Would never love or touch her??? 😂 Well, EAT 💩 man, that would backfire.
Hahahah ack
Hahahha. I cant stop laughing hahahhaha. I love the MC. Thanks for translating
So he can’t hear her conversing with the system at all??? She’s been close enough for him to catch it this time
To those who said he was being restrictive or something, haven’t you forgotten that he read her mind wanting to do that?so of course he would not allow her no reason but purely to annoy her, kind of revenge with how much she swore on him
