The Villain's Wife Chapter 532 Respect and Honor

The Villain's Wife 532 Respect and Honor

After Zhou Jingren and Lily went to see the house they immediately told Yang Mi to find a very good place to purchase some furniture.

Zhou Jingren only shook his head when he heard Lily mentioned that she is only planning to bring his piano and their clothes. She is planning to buy new furniture for the house.

"I wanted to invest in beautiful pieces so it will last longer. Something that would still exist twenty years from now." Lily said as she instructed Yang Mi to always chose quality over the price. "This will be our home. A place where we raise our children and maybe grandchildren. We should invest in very good furniture. She made a deliberate pause when she realized that she should stop convincing someone like her husband.

Zhou Jingren is the type of man that would agree to anything that she says. With this in mind, she could not stop the smile from blooming on her face. "Jingren, do you have a request? I am planning to make two rooms as our offices. Then one as our bedroom. We should also create a separate room for a butler. Or the people that will take care of the mansion."

Zhou Jingren couldn't help but smile as he heard Lily babble about her future plans. Her words seemed too sweet, that he wondered if this was a hallucination. Was he really this lucky to have a woman like Lily stand by his side until he grows old?

"Alright… I really want to pick furniture in person. I don't want to judge things base on a presentation. So maybe… we could find a decorator and schedule a day to pick the type of wood that I want for the furniture. Rosewood would be nice and oak too. Maybe we could include some mahogany. What do you think?" Lily's question brought him back from his stupor.

"Everything you say is fine." He nodded. "You can do what you want." He added before giving her a gentle smile.

Lily beamed in response before she went back to talking about her plans in the mansion.

.........…

When Lily arrived in Sky City, she immediately asked Yang Mi to give her updates about what had been going on lately. To be honest, Lily was not that interested in the issues anymore as it does not affect her in any way. Moreover, she is planning to use another cla.s.sic move that she learned from her grandmother.

'Use absence to increase respect and honor.'

Create value through scarcity. This was a cla.s.sic move from her grandmother's teachings. First, establish yourself in the business world. Then withdraw and keep your silence. This will make people talk, make people a.s.sume that you are planning something.

Make people fear your absence. It will keep the enemies wondering if you are scheming against them. It will give them suspended terror. Something that is essential to maintain your air of unpredictability.

In the first place, too much presence in the news does not necessarily mean that it will bring her profits. So why tire herself when she won't benefit from it?

However, all this plan seemed to crumble and turned into ashes when she heard Yang Mi's words.

"A scandal?" her mind went spiral. Zhou Jingren's face immediately flooded her head. "Can you give me the tablet?" Lily had been limiting her time with her laptop and tablet as Zhou Jingren insisted that the radiation is bad for her and their child's health.

Lily chose to comply as she knew Zhou Jingren was just concern about her health.

When Yang Mi gave her the tablet, Lily immediately checked the news. It wasn't really hard to find as it was still trending. Her mouth flew open. She was speechless! Zhou Jingren was ruthless and direct, ah.

He instantly destroyed someone's career in less than a day! Seeing Lily's reaction, Yang Mi immediately cleared her throat.

"Mr. Qin Yuanfeng was the one who tracked the hacker who released those photos." Yang Mi said. "President Zhou said that this is only the start. I think… I think he is planning to kill Miss Qiao." Yang Mi said with a straight face. "She deserves it."

Lily s.h.i.+fted her gaze to her secretary and saw the disgust in Yang Mi's eyes. "Death is too easy." She said.

"An untimely death is actually us saving them from themselves." For the first time, Yang Mi decided to tell Lily her thoughts about the matter. "Their stupidity is astounding. We are only saving the planet from people like them."

Hearing this, Lily let out a burst of boisterous laughter. Who would have thought that Yang Mi's thinking is very direct too? She then gave Yang Mi and a knowing look. Now that she is pregnant, it is possible that Yang Mi is also stepping up on her game and decided to go all out in protecting her.

"Then… let her do what he wants." Lily smiled. "Their deaths have nothing to do with me." She said as her lips curled into a sinister smile. "What about Cindy Hao?"

As if on cue, Lily's phone vibrated. When she saw the caller ID, Lily immediately answered it.

"Hmm?" she gave the tablet back to Yang Mi as she rose from the couch and walked towards Zhou Jingren's piano.

"Miss Lily… I… I am calling you because I want to thank you." Cindy's voice trembled. It was clear that the younger woman was trying to gather all the courage that she had to utter those words.

"Thank you?"

"Yes. I want to thank you for finding out the truth about the bullying scandal." Cindy added.

"Oh…"

"Miss Lily… thank you for believing that I would not do such a thing. I originally wanted to have a press conference to clear this up. But our CEO did not agree with my sister's request. He also forbid me from commenting on this matter. I really apologize for causing all this drama."

"It's alright," Lily said. She could feel the grat.i.tude flowing from the younger woman's words. A smile hung on Lily's lips. "I understand." She added.
