SM Notebook - Married Life (Part 22)

Sun-Mei intended to have dinner with Xiang-Zhe but since he was busy as usual, she decided to treat Zhao-Di to dinner instead. They went to Cream Restaurant, where Xiang-Zhe had always brought her...

At the counter, as Sun-Mei was footing the bill, she smiled to Zhao-Di, "Congratulations, once again!"

Zhao-Di hooked up her arm through her arm, "Thanks! Sun-Mei, I admire for this point, you are always such a buddy." She was satisfied with the food though, they tasted excellent!

"But that was weird, I was the one who treated you to dinner when I became the broadcaster. Yet now you become the official dubbing artist, dinner is still on me?" The more she thought, the more puzzled she got.

"You little imp! Don't you understand the 'you help me, I help you' theory?"

"This doesn't refer to that..." Sun-Mei stopped in mid-sentence...

Xiang-Zhe had just walked into the restaurant with a beautiful lady. She was the current most celebrated movie actress. Despite a little thick make-up, she was really pretty!

Zhao-Di stared at the scenario with wide-opened mouth, Oh my goodness! She thought, this could be the biggest gossip ever! My prince charming Director had openly gone on a dinner date with a famous actress, and he was such a gentlemen to pull the chair for her... What was more frustrating, they were chatting happily...

"Oh my God! What had happened?" Zhao-Di finally managed to speak, still not believing her eyes, "Come on! Let's go over to them..."

Sun-Mei pulled her back, "What do you intend to do?"

"Catch them in the act! We have to give that shameless woman a lesson she won't forget!"

"Aiyo, have you gone mad? The situation isn't as you had imagined, let's leave now..." Sun-Mei dragged Zhao-Di out of the door.

"But..." Zhao-Di kept turning back to look, couldn't believe what Sun-Mei had done. Having a husband that handsome could really cause problem!


The dinner tonight was held with the intention to change the mind of this movie queen on returning to the television screen. Television Director Lee and Xian-Da were slightly late, but things went as planned eventually. Furthermore, she seemed exceptionally interested in the drama script and soon they were discussing the contract issue. After which, television director Lee sent her home...

Staying behind for a while longer, Xiang-Zhe said to Xian-Da, "Really have to thank you." All thanks to his connections.

"Oh, that was nothing! We knew each other for years now." Xian-Da suggested, "What do you think? Should we change the venue for another drink?"

"Maybe next time." He just wanted to return home to his wife, not wanting to leave her alone at home.

Xian-Da read his mind, "Going home to keep your darling wife company?"

Xiang-Zhe lowered his head, couldn't find an excuse to deny.

"You haven't answered my question." Again, Xian-Da brought up the old familiar issue, "What do you really like about Sun-Mei?"

"She..." Talking about Sun-Mei, he couldn't hide his happiness, "loves to cry, obstinate, blur and sometimes behaves like a child. Actually, I have no idea what I like about her."

"But from your tone, you seemed to have fallen for her short beings!" Xian-Da replied unthinkingly.

Was it so obvious? "Then why bother to ask since you knew the answer?"

"Everyday in the office, we have to work according to your serious and demanding self, only the mention of Sun-Mei can extinguish that identity," Xian-Da said arrogantly.

Xiang-Zhe joined in the laughter. That was a fact and one thing, which he couldn't work on because Sun-Mei was his weakness...


Upon reaching home, Sun-Mei took a comfortable shower and dressed in her casual clothes. However, images of Xiang-Zhe and the actress chatting merrily, kept playing in her head. Although she had 100 percent of faith in xue zhang, she felt irritated. Just as Zhao-Di had said, xue zhang was too attractive, women were drooling at the sight of him...

What a hateful Yin Xiang-Zhe! "Why are you that handsome?" She thought and stared at her own image in the mirror, annoyed.

Suddenly, a pair of strong hands grabbed her waist from behind, "Talking about me...?" Xiang-Zhe exchanged glances in the mirror.

"Xue zhang? How come you are back so early?" She was surprised, "Why had the dinner ended so soon?"

"Soon? I thought that was slow enough. You should know that I don't like this sort of dreary business dinner," he said with a sigh.

With a sour expression, she said, "How could it be? Having dinner with such a gorgeous lady, how could dinner be dull?"

"How did you know?" He looked at her light-heartedly, "Have someone been reporting on me?"

She turned around, "Of course not. I saw you with her myself."

"Zhen Sun-Mei! You aren't telling me that you saw me in a public place and you pretended not to know me, are you?" He wasn’t happy for a fact.

"I..." From what he pointed out, why did it seem like it was my fault? Unwilling to be defeated, she snapped, "but both of you were talking 'happily', enjoying each other's company."

He leaned towards her cunningly, studied her jealous expression. "Oh, you are jealous?" He was overjoyed at the discovery.

Refusing to admit, she said, "Hey, don't too highly of yourself. I thought it was nothing so I didn't interrupt you."

He merely loved her stubbornness. "And? You decided to become a generous wife?" He teased her, "Then...in future, I can date any women openly, maybe bring them to movies or have dinner?"

"To movies? Who would talk business in movie halls?" She widened her eyes, what does he take me as? Stupid?

"Em, you aren't that dumb after all," his eyes filled with amusement and added, "with such a tigresses at home, would I be that daring to fool around?"

"What tigresses?" She gave him a shove angrily.

Her action made him realized his bliss, "Doesn't this respond resemble a tigresses?"

"Doesn't matter actually..." She pretended not to care, "Anyway, I have promised a date with another man."

"What are you talking about? Who have you promised the date?" He frowned iUmmediately, now his turn to be anxious.

"En..., with the company's..." She struggled her hand free from the firm grip and walked away haughtily, "...dumb director!"

He stood stunned for seconds, unbelievably this little woman had checked mate this time, "Zhen Sun-Mei...!" and ran after her.

The end of this chase was just the beginning of another loving scene......
