Chapter 30: The Wife of the Fifties (30)

  Chu Shenyu felt guilty. He had face blindness to the opposite sex and made a lot of jokes when he was a kid. He couldn’t even recognize his deskmate when he changed his clothes.

  In fact, he didn’t have high expectations for marriage. He felt that getting married and having children was like working, a necessary task in life. Because of this, he wanted to put it off as long as possible.

  When he met Zhu Yun and had physical contact with her, he felt that getting married and having children was acceptable and he even found the fun in it.

  Especially since she had a dark face and was very recognizable, and she could cook, and he happened to take advantage of her, he also began to care about getting married.

  After all, she was his wife, and they would raise the next generation together and be his lifelong partner. Chu Shenyu treated her very seriously.

  But now it seems that he still didn’t take her seriously enough. Otherwise, why didn’t he recognize his wife when she turned white!
  The more Chu Shenyu looked, the more he found that the image of his wife in his mind became vivid. The dark face disappeared, replaced by a white and smooth one, and the facial features were particularly clear and beautiful, even more perfect than the mechanical parts he fiddled with!
  "Wife, wife," his face flushed instantly, "You, you, you have become white, so beautiful." Like snow-white tofu pudding, reflecting the morning light, making people want to take a bite...

  The two of them spoke in low voices, and what others saw was that the new factory flower whispered a few words to the factory grass in anger, and the factory grass stared at him stupidly, and after staring for a while, his face turned red first, and he looked like he was trying to please, which was far from his usual coldness!
  So the two of them took their things and left side by side...

  "This, Engineer Chu is going to make a mistake!"

  "And on the second floor of the cafeteria in front of Chef Xiao Zhu..."

  "Even if that female comrade is very beautiful and dazzlingly white, but Engineer Chu is already in a relationship, how can he still have two girlfriends at the same time? He doesn't even give others a chance..."

  "It's a waste that Chef Xiao Zhu thinks about his kindness every meal. He just made eggs for him to cook for him. As a result, he just came back from a business trip and he has a new love..."

  "I originally thought that Engineer Chu was a good person who focused on inner beauty, but I didn't expect him to be so superficial and irresponsible! No matter how good his work ability is or how high his education is, he can't cover up his bad character!"

  Everyone unanimously condemned Chu Shenyu, but silently prayed in their hearts that Chef Xiao Zhu would not bring his emotions to work. They have been spoiled by their mouths, and they don't want to go back to the hard days of eating from the same pot.

  Mrs. Qian and Xu Xiaohui looked at each other, a little amused. Although they were also surprised that Chef Xiao Zhu had changed so much, they clearly remembered that Chef Xiao Zhu came in the morning dressed like this!
  In order to prevent the spread of rumors, they had to patiently help explain: "Everyone misunderstood, the one who was with Mr. Chu just now was our Chef Xiao Zhu."

  This sentence made everyone's brains run out, "No, Sister Qian, what did you say? The female comrade who was as white as snowflakes was your Chef Xiao Zhu?" It

  was so funny, wasn't it? It wasn't that they disliked Chef Xiao Zhu's dark skin, but ordinary female comrades working in offices or in the art troupe rarely had such good skin color and looks, how could it be Chef Xiao Zhu?
  Everyone gave Chef Xiao Zhu face and tried hard not to laugh, but it was hard enough to hold back the redness on their faces.

  "Why don't you believe it?" Mrs. Qian couldn't help but get anxious: "Chef Xiao Zhu herself is not dark, but she suffered a lot in the past, and her skin was badly damaged. In the past month or two, she has been paying attention to maintenance, so it is normal for her skin to be in good condition."

  "And Chef Xiao Zhu is really good-looking, otherwise she wouldn't have the bad luck to be chosen by the Wang family and delayed for seven or eight years!"

  "Besides, Engineer Chu has worked in our factory for several years. Everyone can see what kind of person he is. He is not a fickle person."

  Xu Xiaohui also explained: "Yes, Chef Xiao Zhu came in this morning, and many of our colleagues in the kitchen saw it."

  The chef and the kitchen helper at the next window nodded dizzily, "Indeed, an aunt praised her clothes for being beautiful and wanted to buy one for her daughter who was getting married."

  Everyone looked at each other, this was the fact, but why couldn't they convince themselves to believe it?

  In fact, Chef Xiao Zhu seemed to have a different mind!
  ***
  Chu Shenyu kept turning his head to look at her along the way. He used to think she was distinctively dark, but now she is surprisingly white.   

  Zhu Yun has been eating well in the past two months. She looks like a dead tree sprouting green buds in spring, stretching out branches, and then the eyes are full of green vitality.

  Her face is white and oval, which makes her look a little soft and sticky. The charming and bright fox eyes weaken her, making her look particularly soft and lovely.

  "Why," Zhu Yun raised her eyebrows with a little anger on her face, "I look too superficial, you can't appreciate it?"

  Chu Shenyu coughed and said seriously, "I suddenly realized that I am actually a vulgar person, quite superficial, I just like you to be white and beautiful!"

  Zhu Yun couldn't help laughing and glanced at him, "Can't you have a little backbone? No wonder you are so quiet, you look good, and if you are so slick, I'm afraid you can hold a flower viewing banquet when the peach blossoms are in full bloom."

  "Then I will only talk to you in the future?" He laughed too. "Come sit at my place for a while? I have something for you."

  Zhu Yun nodded, and the two walked side by side, winning 300-400% of the turning heads of the employees and their families.

  "Mr. Chu, are you back from a business trip? Who is this?" Those who were curious came forward to ask.

  Chu Shenyu smiled faintly and said, "This is my girlfriend." Fearing that others would misunderstand, he added, "Chef Xiao Zhu!"

  This sentence was no less than a bomb, and everyone looked at the smiling Zhu Yun.

  What? This lesbian, who was almost the whitest in the audience, was the black-faced chef?
  Could it be that the sun in the sky was too dazzling, causing them to hallucinate and hear things?

  However, the two did not stop and explained all the way home.

  Chu Shenyu took out the key and just inserted it, the person opposite heard a noise and opened the door.

  Lin Jin was four months pregnant, and she was only wearing a white dress with yellow floral patterns, which slightly outlined her pregnant belly.

  "Oh, Engineer Chu is back?" Lin Jin said with a chuckle, "My husband Wang was still talking about you. You've been out for a month, right?"

  "I think you shouldn't go to the cafeteria to eat at night. Eat at home with your colleagues in the engineering department and have a couple of drinks to relieve your fatigue." "

  Hey, who is this female comrade?"

  She seemed to have just seen Zhu Yun.

  The Chu family is in the education system, and there are family compounds of various systems around them. The Lin family also lives nearby. She knows all about the influential figure Chu Shenyu.

  Such an outstanding girl is definitely not a relative of Chu Shenyu. Looking at the interaction between the two people's eyebrows just now, it is obvious that something is wrong!
