My Evil Genius Wife

“You….are you playing some kind of prank on me?” He frowned and looked at her sternly.

He was talking about such a serious matter yet she was playing a prank on me in the middle of this.

Xu Nuan chuckled seeing him taking her words as a prank. “Do you remember I once told you that I am not Xu Nuan but Jiang Yue while I was chasing you and begging you to date me?”

Han Zihao pursed his lips when he remembered about it. She did tell him about it when they hadn’t started dating at that time.

However, she said it so casually, and out of nowhere, how can he take her words seriously?

“Aye! What do you mean by begging to date me? I wasn’t that bad at that time. You did persuade me but my feelings were also mutual for you.” He said while trying to make her feel better about it.

His feelings were indeed mutual for her. However, at that time he needed some time to deal with his complicated feelings due to which he had to push her away at first.

Xu Nuan scoffed to see him comforting her and said, ” Forget about it. If we start discussing this matter, I am sure we will end up fighting. Because my POV is different from yours. You will not understand it.” She shook her head and tried to clear her mind which was filled with many other things.

.....

If they continue talking about it, they should start fighting about it. Rather than discussing the other important things, she will end up crying then.

Because pregnancy hormones and mood swings are no joke!

Han Zihao pursed his lips and nodded obediently upon hearing her cold words. Rather than fighting, it’s better to not talk about this matter.

Her hormones at this stage of pregnancy are taking a toll on her mental health and he was worried that their conversation might erupt into a big fight.

“Anyway, even at that time when I told you the truth about my identity, you took my words as a joke and called it not funny. You’re doing the same thing again.” She pointed it out.

“Don’t come later and blame me for not telling you the truth. Because I just did.” Xu Nuan said in a stern voice, feeling distressed about the whole situation.

She wanted to tell him the truth in a calm manner. She started this conversation in a relaxed manner but her hormones were playing with her emotions once again, making her angry for no reason.

To calm herself, she took a deep breath three times and even took a sip of water again to control her overwhelming emotions.

It wasn’t even his fault, then why is she getting angry at him?

Han Zihao didn’t say anything as he allowed her to calm down before they could continue this conversation. However, while Xu Nuan was drinking water to calm her emotions, his calm expression turned troubled upon hearing her remarks.

She doesn’t seem to be joking about it this time.

“Then….are you serious about it? However, isn’t your company named HJ Entertainment? How can this cyber security company be yours?” He asked a series of questions after Xu Nuan seemed to have calmed down.

“Ah! Do you mean that you have invested in this new company? Is that what you’re trying to say?” He clapped his hands in delight when he realized what was going on.

That’s right. She can still say that this company is partially hers if she has invested in it. That must be the case.

“However, as long as I remember, this company doesn’t take investments from others. It’s not open for public investment as of yet.” He said with disappointment and puzzlement in his voice.

After seeing their skills and professionalism, Han Zihao also wanted to invest in this new cybersecurity company. He even asked Feng Sheng to make a proposal about it.

However, they failed to do so because after taking the project, they only contacted them through pop-up emails to give them the evidence which soon disappeared into thin air as if they never existed.

They’re surely a techno-savvy company if they can pull such stunts. That’s why he was even more disappointed when he failed to get an opportunity to invest in their skills.

Because they’re gaining so much popularity when they’re new in this field. What will happen if they stay in this industry for a few more years?

Even if she had somehow managed to invest in that company, how did she find out about the truth beforehand? To what extent?

___

“Xu Nuan, stop playing with words and tell me honestly. How did you find out about the truth and how did you find out about this company?” Han Zihao asked straightforwardly, as his brain couldn’t bear to solve any more puzzles.

Xu Nuan smirked to see him getting dispirited after brainstorming about some random theories. She patted his shoulder and decided to put an end to this torture.

” Since you worked hard to find the truth, I will not keep the suspense for longer and will tell you the truth. However, promise me that even after finding the truth, you will not get angry at me.” She said and tried to make a promise beforehand.

Because what she is going to reveal is not a small thing after all. Not everyone knows how to hack computers and take this hobby to the next level by establishing a cyber security company.

Han Zihao squinted his eyes and looked at her with a suspicious gaze. “Have I ever gotten angry at you for anything?” He asked her in return.

Xu Nuan didn’t respond to his question and waited for him to make the promise to her. “Alright. I will not get angry at you. Now, will you tell me the truth?” He sighed and promised her to not get angry at her just like she wanted.

She was pleased and rubbed her palms nervously together before starting, ” It’s the truth that the eagle eye cyber security company belongs to me.”

” Not that I invested in the company, but I am the CEO of the company.” She said while trying to control her smile.

It was feeling strange because it was the first time that she was revealing to someone about her second company which she started before HJ Entertainment. Although it was never the main business for her and she established it to support her entertainment company with initial funds only, eventually it worked well for her and was still rising high in popularity in the industry.

Han Zihao: “.....”

Han Zihao was baffled as he couldn’t believe his ears. The cyber security company belongs to her. How is it possible?

Xu Nuan pursed her lips to see his shocked expression and continued to give him an explanation. ” I know it might sound crazy but I started this company as a secondary plan to acquire funds to start my entertainment company.”

“Since this kind of work doesn’t need many funds other than a room and a computer system, it was easier for me to start with this work and start the entertainment company when I acquired enough funds for the starting period.” She explained.

Han Zihao was speechless as he never imagined that the person who is the owner of such a genius company was none other than Xu Nuan.

“So….you were aware from the start when Feng Sheng reached out to your company to hire them for this work?” He asked cautiously. He was still in shock that the company he reached out to for help belonged to Xu Nuan.

So they were hiding the truth from each other all this time?

Xu Nuan pursed her lips guiltily and nodded. ” Kind of…Yes. I was the one who agreed to take on the project after seeing the name of Mr. Secretary. That’s why they ignored all the people in the line and gave you the green card.” She finally revealed.
