Chereads / Back From The Dead / Chapter 6 - The King

Chapter 6 - The King

While waiting for her food to come, Tang Yazhu once again opened the ziplock bag. Taking out the phone and immediately turning it on, she then found out that it had already reached its limit, causing it to shut down right after she powered it on.

"Miss Ren, please wait for a while. Boss, will come back soon," Fu Chao said when he entered the room.

"Uh… Assistant Fu, could I request you to charge my phone for me? I don't have a charger with me," Tang Yazhu asked while waving her phone that she was holding in her hand.

"Sure, wait while I grab a charger for you," Fu Chao accepted and left the room right after entering.

"Sigh… So… I'm Ren Bao now. I need to get used to it. Tang Yazhu has already died. It's time to live and lead the life that you always wanted," Tang Yazhu silently committed to herself.

In this life, she would make sure that she lived for the better and be an especially good and caring housewife for her future husband.

"Hold up… What the fuck! Long Ning!? The king of the business empire!?" Tang Yazhu exclaimed quietly.

Out of all the ordinary people she could have chosen to marry, did she have to choose the most out of the ordinary? Why the hell was she so slow to remember who he was!?

A thousand years ago, there were only seven continents in the world, Continent A, Continent B, Continent C, Continent D, Continent E, Continent F, and Continent G. At the very least, not until the eighth continent was discovered. It just so happened that her Class Z mission was located in Continent H, the eighth continent. Before the discovery of the continent, there were not that many people who knew it existed. However, it was not until the Yi Country stood out by bringing flourishment to the continent, making it the number one nation in the entire continent, that many people finally started to recognize Continent H.

Though this new continent consisted of only five countries, the continent was incredibly huge, about the same size as Continent A. Not only that, Continent H was unlike any of the other continents. The technology in this continent was much more advanced and there were more resources, enticing people from many parts of the world to migrate to this continent. It was also for this reason that there existed so many socialites and wealthy people, more than any of the other continents.

The ancestors of Long Ning were also one of those that brought the continent to fame. For the longest time ever, they held this place, making them the number business as their businesses were so widespread that they were all scattered around the entire world. However, it was also this huge wealth that attracted an incredibly huge amount of enemies.

Fuck! My future husband is so fucking rich!

While internally sweating, Tang Yazhu thought, 'Good thing I always stay in the Intelligence Network when I'm not busy.'

Whenever Tang Yazhu was not busy, she would run to the Intelligence Network, an area privileged to someone like her and the people who worked there and gather intel on the things in Continent H.

Well, since he has such good resources, she must make use of them to investigate the matter of her origin. She felt that there was more between herself and Ren Bao, so for their sake, she must definitely find the truth about them both. Not only that, her guts were telling her that she needed to do this, and she always trusted her guts. It was this form of trust that enabled her to save herself during her missions, except for the last mission that she took on to leave the organization.

A little while later, her food finally came, with Fu Chao following behind with her fully charged the phone and her future husband coming back, too.

"Are you really Long Ning? The king of the business empire?" Tang Yazhu asked while eating the beef and corn soup that the nutritionist made for her.

It was a good thing that she was left-handed for it was her right arm that fractured.

"Yes, I'm Long Ning. Why are you asking? Don't tell me...you're questioning my identity?" Long Ning replied while putting down the book he was reading to peel some oranges for her.

"No, that's not...what I mean is that-you! An important man of this country is here with me, peeling oranges for me! Isn't that weird? Also, not a single person knows what you look like! Some people even say that because you're so ugly, you don't want to show up to events!" Tang Yazhu explained herself while taking the orange that he had just peeled and ate it, unaware of his aura that became completely dark.

Well, she was speaking the truth. Despite her high position, she did not get to see his picture even with all the info gathering that she had done on him. Only the higher-ups in the business field have seen him, and this was the same for her organization.

From all the information she got of him...he was only twenty years old when he took over the CEO position, being the youngest billionaire ever! Also, there were rumors that stated that he was a very ruthless, cold, monster!

"Not only am I responsible for what happened to you, but you're also my wife. If I'm not here, where else should I be? Besides, those are pointless rumors that don't need any attention to," Long Ning addressed as he started peeling some red apples for her.

"Hm… Okay!" Tang Yazhu hummed out, eating all the fruits that he peels for her.

On the other side of the room, Fu Chao was once again on the verge of fainting again.

The boss that he has accompanied for ten years is peeling fruits! Not only that, they were acting so lovey-dovey, like lovers who have known each other for a super long time!

'I must stay strong or else my heart will jump out of my chest from this discovery!' Fu Chao mentally calmed himself down as he was basically ignored by the couple.

(A/N: Stay strong, Fu Chao! There is more for you to see!)

Suddenly, a ringing sound ended the lovey-dovey atmosphere of the room.

"Miss Ren, someone is calling you," Fu Chao said as he handed the phone to her.

'Someone is calling me? Who could it be?' Tang Yazhu thought, trying to go through a list of people, but she was basically unfamiliar with everyone.

When she received the phone and looked at the caller ID, it was Yin Nuyin. From her memories, Yin Nuyin was also a sous chef and her co-worker from the restaurant that she worked at.

"Hello? I'm sorry. My phone powered off since I couldn't charge it. I was in an accident, you see… Can you tell the boss about it? Yes! Yes! Thank you so much!" Tang Yazhu spoke to the person on the other side of the phone, leaving the room in a weird silence as the two men stayed silent.

"Who was it?" Long Ning asked while looking at the phone she was still holding in her hand.

"It was Yinyin, my co-worker at the restaurant. She didn't know that I was in an accident and that the boss was looking for me since I disappeared for so long," she answered while tapping on the phone to look at all the messages sent to her while she was in a coma.

"You should stop working at the restaurant. After you recover, you can just stay at home," Long Ning told her as he put the knife down, realizing that he has almost peeled all the fruits in the tray.

"Hm… Yeah, you're right! I should just cook and take care of you! That's so much better!" she exclaimed.

Besides, it would be easier if she stayed at home to investigate. If she investigated while working, it would be too hard, and also in the case that the organization found her, it would be even more troublesome, especially since they had the same face, leading to a huge misunderstanding. Well, it was not that huge since they were definitely the same soul.

It was too bad that the body was different though, so she would never admit to being herself. Not only that, by not working, she could lead a low-key life. This would be even more beneficial to her.

Long Ning was slightly taken back when he heard her exclamation. He only planned and wanted her to rest while he worked for the family, but he did not expect her to voluntarily cook and take care of him. Though, there was nothing wrong with it because she was his wife and he really liked the idea of it.

"Hm… Assistant Fu, go to her workplace and arrange her resignation," Long Ning ordered as he continued to take care of his soon-to-be wife.

Well, Fu Chao already knew that he had no choices to choose once again.

Ever since the lady woke up, he could not even count how many errands he had run for her in just one day.

Instead of running errands for the company, here he was running errands for another person instead. Well, she was the future Young Madam, so he knew that there would definitely be more errands to come.
