My Wife is a Beautiful CEO

C597 The Most Familiar Stranger



C597 The Most Familiar Stranger

Yang Chen finally calmed down when he saw Qiangwei's cowardice. However, after this flirtatious conversation, the haze around Qiangwei's injury was swept away. He started to carefully think about what he should do.    

    

But when he thought about it more carefully, Yang Chen realized that he really didn't have much of an idea. He was usually lazy and lived his days without any special hobbies. He had spent the past years in darkness and malevolence, and he had no young romance.    

    

Qiangwei seemed to notice Yang Chen's headache, she smiled and said, "If you can't think of it, then let's just take a stroll. People like me, who rarely go out, would actually find anything very interesting."    

    

Only then did Yang Chen remember that other than attending a few underworld occasions, Qiangwei almost never left her house. He then drove the car towards the city center in relief.    

    

After aimlessly strolling around the Zhonghai City Center, Qiangwei got off the car only once. She went to a video store on the ground floor of the building to buy a CD of Adele, a British female singer.    

    

After putting the CD into the car and playing it, the entire car began to fill up with this young female singer's unique, slightly hoarse voice that was filled with explosive power.    

    

Yang Chen was surprised that Qiangwei would think of buying music CDs to listen to. As he drove out of the city, he said, "I didn't expect that my Qiangwei would also like European and American pop music."    

    

Qiangwei smiled lightly and glanced at Yang Chen, "I stay at home almost every day, except to see if the investment industry is doing well. The rest of the time, it's either exercise, TV, movies, or no good movies, so I can only listen to music."    

    

Yang Chen nodded. He remembered that when Qiangwei was still at the back of the bar in the past, there was always a computer in her bedroom.    

    

"Actually …" Qiangwei suddenly said quietly, "It's been over a year since we first met, but we haven't really spent much time together. You don't know what I like, and it's just like I don't know it."    

    

These words were said easily, but Yang Chen didn't feel comfortable listening to them. He knew that this was Qiangwei's resentment towards him for not being able to spend time with her.    

    

Even though she didn't say it out loud, it didn't mean that she didn't have it in her heart.    

    

Previously, Tang Wan had accused him of not knowing enough about Lin Ruoxi. But now, it seemed that it wasn't only Lin Ruoxi — he didn't even know a single one of the women around him.    

    

That was strange. Other people might not even be able to come to a conclusion after a few years of being in a relationship. As for him, he did not even know what his favorite female hobby was. He had already reached the final step.    

    

If such a thing were to be revealed, many men would be envious. However, Yang Chen knew clearly that if this carried on, there would be too many unnecessary troubles sooner or later. Since he was determined not to give up on any woman, there was still a long way to go. He couldn't just roll into bed every time he saw them. You can't always come "hero save beauty" every time, moving women. It was necessary to understand each other in life.    

    

It was time for him to care about the lives of his lovers. Thus, he started listening to the music, saying, "I don't listen to much music, although I can sing some songs, but I don't have any special interests in music, so tell me why you like this singer. Since you often listen to songs, you can at least tell me some knowledge about music."    

    

Qiangwei pursed her lips and thought for a moment. "I only blindly listened to them and chose whatever song I felt was nice. I don't really care about the singers and the country, much less any knowledge. This singer has a song that makes my heart ache, but it also attracts me, so I've been listening to it all this time. "    

    

"Which one is it?" Yang Chen asked.    

    

Qiangwei did not have a high education and could not speak English, so she could not say the name of the song. Thus, she had to choose one song after another.    

    

Hearing the melody of one of the songs, Qiangwei said sweetly, "It's this song. I've listened to it dozens of times in the past few days and I still like it a lot. However, I don't know English and I don't have the habit of checking lyrics, so I can only listen to the melody."    

    

Yang Chen looked at the title of the song on the screen, "SomeoneLikeYou".    

    

The melodious sound of singing came out. Adele's voice was like a soul stirring, capturing that trace of softness in people's heart. Gradually, Yang Chen also became intoxicated by this sad melody.    

    

When she heard the lyrics in the song repeated a few times, Qiangwei asked in a daze, "Hubby, what does this English mean? Every time I hear it, my heart hurts …"    

    

"Sometimes, love can become eternal, but sometimes, love can be so hurtful …"    

    

Yang Chen naturally understood every word of the lyrics. It was precisely because of this that he, who already had a heavy heart regarding matters of the heart, felt especially touched by this song.    

    

Qiangwei recited it a few times with sadness flashing across her eyes. Finally, she pursed her lips and laughed, "Although I don't understand English, but even if I translate it, it would still be beautiful. But I think Adele meant that even if love didn't last forever, even if it hurt someone, she wouldn't let go. "    

    

Yang Chen turned his head and looked at the sad Qiangwei. He frowned and caressed the woman's hair, "Don't let your imagination run wild, this song should be for the unscrupulous. I'm not that kind of person, we can definitely turn it into an eternal one."    

    

Qiangwei giggled and rolled her eyes at Yang Chen, "You are indeed not a heartless person, but you are a playboy."    

    

Yang Chen embarrassedly shrugged, stepped on the accelerator, and the car got on the highway, starting to drive towards the business district of the suburbs of Zhonghai City.    

    

The two of them chatted as they listened to the song. In the past, when they were together, they would either go to bed or discuss matters related to the underworld. There wasn't even much time for them to talk about love. As for the time he had taken Qiangwei out for a sightseeing trip, that was the only time.    

    

Now that they spent so much time chatting and laughing together, the two of them realized that they both had things that the other didn't know.    

    

When he mentioned how Qiangwei had dropped out of school after being criticized by her teacher for helping girls beat up boys in high school, Yang Chen was greatly moved. He had not expected that such a charming and graceful woman had such a heroic side to her.    

    

Yang Chen had nothing to say about the time at school. He hadn't even gone to kindergarten and certainly hadn't gone to high school either, so he had to tell her about the murders in the Amazon and the ambush in Siberia. To Qiangwei's ears, these stories were thrilling and filled the woman's eyes with a twinkling light.    

    

Time flowed like water. The car ran for more than two hours. Yang Chen was surprised to find that the oil lamp had lit up, so he had to drive into a gas station.    

    

When they finished filling the tank and headed out again, the two of them fell silent.    

    

For some reason, after saying so many things that had not been mentioned in the past, the two of them had some strange thoughts and felt a little awkward. They did not know how to continue.    

    

Qiangwei's face flushed. She glanced at Yang Chen and whispered, "Why do I feel like I'm a little unfamiliar with you?"    

    

An unfamiliar person? Yang Chen finally understood what his abnormal emotion was. Indeed, he felt that Qiangwei beside him was very different, with many hazy colors that he didn't understand.    

    

"What should I do?" Yang Chen said seriously: "I actually slept with an unfamiliar woman, now I can't protect my pure and pure body."    

    

Qiangwei pinched Yang Chen's arm viciously like a normal girlfriend pinching her boyfriend, as if this was the natural instinct of a woman, "Damn husband, you're so shameless! I'm serious with you, and yet you're still spouting nonsense. "    

    

Yang Chen laughed and said, "To be honest, proper chatting is actually quite useful."    

    

"What do you mean?" Qiangwei was puzzled.    

    

"Darling, think about it, if the two of us become strangers, then when we get into bed together, it would be like being strangers in the same situation. I would become a person who collects wild flowers, and you would become a woman who cheats. This is …"    

    

Without waiting for Yang Chen to finish, Qiangwei slapped Yang Chen a few times in embarrassment, "Yang Chen, go to hell! "You're the one who stole the men!"    

    

Seeing Qiangwei scratching herself, not caring about her manners, Yang Chen laughed crazily and felt a sense of warmth in his heart.    

    

In the past, because Qiangwei wanted to be the chief of Red Thorn Society, she naturally had to raise her own prestige and posture, and could not do too many immature actions. In other words, she always wore a mask.    

    

However, at this moment, Qiangwei, who had unloaded her heavy burden and opened her heart, was just like a young girl her age, acting coquettishly and making a ruckus while laughing and cursing.    

    

After playing around for a while, Yang Chen almost ran his car into the fence.    

    

When the car drove into a commercial district, Qiangwei, who had been laughing for quite a while, was puffing and blushing.    

    

Yang Chen blinked his eyes at the woman, "Mr. Chairman, after fighting for so long, are you thirsty?"    

    

Qiangwei also realized that she was losing control a little, but it didn't matter since the person beside her was her man and not one of her subordinates. As the real Qiangwei, she was still enjoying herself. After talking so much, she was thirsty, so she nodded.    

    

"What would you like to drink?" Yang Chen saw that the sky had already dimmed down, so he decided to have a drink. Then he accompanied Qiangwei to find a restaurant for dinner.    

    

Qiangwei looked around at the shops on both sides of the street. Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she pointed at a delicately decorated restaurant in front of her. "Go there!"    

    

Yang Chen took a look, everyone on Earth could recognize that blurry trademark. It was a Starbucks.    

    

"Qiangwei, why did you suddenly think of having coffee?" Yang Chen had always felt that a woman like Qiangwei wouldn't choose a fast food dish.    

    

Actually, it was because Yang Chen had been overseas for too long that he didn't know that, within the China, Starbucks could be considered a small capital-level company — far more than the fast food and drinks overseas.    

    

Qiangwei pouted her red lips and said, "I've seen it often in the commercials on TV. I've always wanted to try it, but I didn't know how to buy it, so I've never tried it. I'm very curious …"    

    

Yang Chen was speechless. He wasn't surprised that Qiangwei hadn't drank Starbucks that could be found all over the world. In fact, he had only been there once with Lin Ruoxi.    

    

"In that case, I'll take you in and have a look, even though I've never had much of this shop's coffee." Yang Chen scratched his head and started to park.    

    

Qiangwei understood the meaning of his words and asked curiously, "Hubby, don't you drink coffee while you're overseas? Starbucks should be very popular abroad. "
