Chapter 31: 31

Ruan Jiu Jiu recently became addicted to GKART. In the name of learning how to park, she played so much she forgot to eat and sleep. On weekends, she woke up early to start grinding quests, and by the afternoon she was still playing and hadn’t gotten out of bed. You could say that she was extremely dedicated to her work.

White Dragon Horse hadn’t seen Ruan Jiu Jiu online for days. Depressed, she sent her a DM.

[Jiu Jiu what are you up to these days? Why haven’t you come online?]

Ruan Jiu Jiu’s response was quite calm: I’m practicing driving, busy with IRL stuff.

White Dragon Horse: Practicing driving???

Ruan Jiu Jiu: Yeah, for my commute.

She lied with a straight face. Her face didn’t even turn red, and her heartbeat was normal. She easily fooled White Dragon Horse into going along with her.

White Dragon Horse: Oh yeah, in a few days we’re planning to have a meetup IRL. Do you want to come? It’ll just be the few of us you know.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: Nah, I’d better not.

She was a bit afraid that if these online friends turned out to know the original owner of her body, they’d dig out some of the original owner’s messy affairs. That wouldn’t be too good.

White Dragon Horse: It’s just a small gathering, five or six people max. How about this, the meetup is scheduled for next next weekend. You just think it over first. Even though I really want to meet you, I don’t want to force you to do something you don’t want to do.

Ruan Jiu Jiu: Sure, I’ll think about it some more.

Saying this, Ruan Jiu Jiu suddenly recalled that she didn’t know if Cheng Jun had gone to his alumni reunion or not.

She quickly brushed her messy hair and tied it up. Then she opened the door to check on what Cheng Jun was up to.

“…”

Ruan Jiu Jiu said with a dark look on her face, “Don’t tell me you’re fasting again?”

Cheng Jun’s little “mhm” of approval lightly floated over. He was just a step away from finally ascending to the heavens and achieving immortality.

One meal had restored Cheng Jun’s personality back to normal. His eyes no longer had that lifeless look, and now had a bit more spirit in them. With a look of helplessness, Ruan Jiu Jiu sat next to him and asked, “Hey, are you going to your alumni reunion?”

Cheng Jun slowly responded. “No.”

At that, Ruan Jiu Jiu immediately envisioned thousands of ways that Cheng Jun had been violently bullied at school. She gentled her voice and said, “If you don’t want to then don’t go.”

Cheng Jun cast a sidelong glance at Ruan Jiu Jiu, his entire face written with “What ridiculous things are you imagining?”

As the most illustrious graduate of the school, representing the most influential figure among his year, he was the most sought-after person to attend the anniversary of the school’s founding. But Cheng Jun didn’t like to join in the hubbub so instead he directly donated 1 million to his alma mater, making them pleased beyond belief.

On the other side, Ruan Jiu Jiu’s mind continued to churn out tragic scenarios. She looked sympathetically at Cheng Jun, trying to think of something to say to comfort him.

Cheng Jun: “My goosebumps are about to appear.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “???”

As expected, she shouldn’t think too much of this bastard.

……

Lately, to allow Cheng Jun to go to the office these few days, Tu Nan armstronged Ruan Jiu Jiu into taking a vacation.

Well, it wasn’t really a vacation but it was more like preparing slides at home. In a few days, she would attend a work conference.

With her gone, Tu Nan and the others finally welcomed their boss who they hadn’t seen in ages. Tu Nan and Jiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief. It was like they were finally free. They circled Cheng Jun like a few chirpy birds.

“Boss! You finally came!”

“I missed you so much!”

Cheng Jun shot a glance at his disgusting employee, and that look finally made Tu Nan stop his revolting behavior. He obediently sat on one side, waiting for Cheng Jun to start the meeting.

Jiao Fan rubbed his temples and said with a doubtful look on his face, “Boss, I kind of don’t get it. Why can’t we let Sister-in-law find out you’re here?”

Cheng Jun calmly responded, “Because she doesn’t know I’m the CEO of Jiacheng.”

The others: “Wha?!”

Fu Zi Cheng had a complicated expression. “Boss, you aren’t being honest. You’re already married, so why are you keeping your own wife in the dark?!”

Jiao Fan: “Yeah, people need to have limits to their behavior.”

Tu Nan: “Boss, I really didn’t expect you to be like this.”

Faced with a group of people criticizing him one after the other, Cheng Jun calmly continued and turned on his laptop. “Therefore, the main focus of our discussion today is the following issue—”

On the screen was written very clearly:

<How to Quickly and Effectively Reveal the Truth to my Wife, Such That She Can Accept Her Husband’s Real Identity>

The others: “…”

Perhaps, he was scared to tell Sister-in-law?

They instantly fell into depression.

Nowadays, without even needing to mention women specifically, who wouldn’t like money? Finding out that your husband was a big boss, and even the boss of a company that you admired, wasn’t this virtually as good as a meat pie dropping out of the sky onto your lap? Exactly what part of this was so hard to say?

Tu Nan casually said, “Don’t worry and just reveal your true identity. At most, she’d get mad at you for not telling her earlier. She’ll have her little fit and then start happily shopping to her heart’s content. If she’s still mad, you can just buy Sister-in-law an entire house of pretty clothes and bags. By then she’ll definitely be out of steam. Plus, no matter how unhappy Sister-in-law is, what’s the worst that can happen, divorce?”

Cheng Jun’s faint response: “Indeed.”

Tu Nan: “…Sorry for the disturbance, pretend I didn’t say anything.”

This relationship issue was not just a household crisis. Tu Nan was already thoroughly defeated by the logic of women.

After an hour of heated discussion passed, everyone unanimously agreed that immediately revealing the truth to Ruan Jiu Jiu was probably too abrupt. They had to do things step by step, first leaking some rumors, and then gradually letting her figure out more things.”

The group efficiently listed out plan A, B, and C. Every bullet point had three or four lines of suggestions, skillfully transforming a simple issue into a business case.

You could say that they were extremely efficient.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Tu nan: “Enter!”

The door was slowly pushed open and a figure walked in. Shockingly, it was the originally-supposed-to-be-at-home Ruan Jiu Jiu.

She held a design file in her hand, her steps brisk. Then instantly, Ruan Jiu Jiu stopped in shock.

She stared blankly at a group of people sitting in the office around Cheng Jun. The top of the laptop was pushed wide open, but before Ruan Jiu Jiu had time to make out what was written on it, it was slammed shut.

“…”

“…”

A deathly still conference room.

“Sister-in-law how’d you get here?” Tu Nan blabbed without caution, letting out her true address. Immediately, he slapped a hand over his mouth. “Sorry, I take back what I said.”

At that, the others, who were just talking animatedly, were immediately struck dumb. Apparently pretending they didn’t know what was going on, they dropped their heads, too scared to meet Ruan Jiu Jiu’s eye.

Only Cheng Jun was very calm.

Extremely calm.

So calm, he forgot what to say.

“How come Cheng Jun’s here?”

Ruan Jiu Jiu felt even more stupid.

“Am I disturbing your meeting?”

With a hand pressing the top of the laptop closed, Cheng Jun said, “We’re just casually going over an issue with my work.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “…But why are you sitting at the head of the table where the boss sits?”

Cheng Jun: “…”

The other people were even more frightened. If Ruan Jiu Jiu continued her line of questioning, everything would be for naught. Their agreed-upon detailed business case was useless now. Their agreed-upon plan to slowly reveal the truth step-by-by was now thrown out the window.

“Sister-in-law, our boss said to hide things from you!”

“I beg of you, please resolve your relationship problems yourselves!”

“Yeah yeah, it’s best that we don’t stay here any longer.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “?? Wait, wait. What do you mean? Don’t run away!”

As her words fell, those people scampered away without a shadow to be seen. They left her and Cheng Jun alone in the conference room. It was quiet and awkward.

Ruan Jiu Jiu wasn’t an idiot. She long had suspicions about how warm and cordial Tu Nan and the others were to her. Now, she could finally connect the dots. The doubts she had towards Cheng Jun’s indefinite location and the close familiarity with which he interacted with Tu Nan and the others, finally had an explanation.

Ruan Jiu Jiu let out a long breath of air.

“So that’s how it is, I just knew. No matter how impressive, you were only an already-retired big-name esports player, so why would all these top bosses treat you so kindly and respectfully? No wonder you guys took care of me so much.“

Cheng Jun remained silent.

“You’re actually Jiacheng’s CEO?”

Even Ruan Jiu Jiu herself found it a little hard to believe.

Where could you find a big company’s CEO that lived in such a shabby old house, leisurely living their days as a NEET in such obscurity.

Ruan Jiu Jiu was a little dazed. Her reason told her that this was a logical decision, but she was a little unable to accept it in her heart.

Cheng Jun stood up and walked to face her.

“I don’t need you to be responsible for any business or household matters. I only need you to do the work you like. Just spend money to your heart’s desire.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu was a bit startled. “You’re gonna support me?”

Cheng Jun: “En.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “…”

Sorry but he sounded too much like one of those overbearing CEOs just then.

Ruan Jiu Jiu’s mind was jumbled. She stumbled back and said, “Let me cool down for a bit.”

Only

Originally, she just wanted to be a happy little rich lady. Now that she had money, Ruan Jiu Jiu suddenly realized that from the very start, Cheng Jun was never at her level. He was Jiacheng’s CEO, and was once the heir to Cheng Corporation.

As for herself…

Ruan Jiu Jiu sighed. “I think, it’s best that we…”

He lowered his head and suddenly grabbed Ruan Jiu Jiu. He was like a beggar that had nothing.

His voice was low.

“Don’t go.”
