My CEO Husband Can Hear My Inner Thoughts

Chapter 4

Yi Qingju was given a fright by this milky and tender yell.

The next second, her previously limp body suddenly regained its strength.

Before she could examine this in detail, Auntie Zhang walked in with a strange look on her face. When she saw Yi Qingju, she quickly called out, “Madam!”

As soon as she finished speaking, a little bean sprout came out from behind her leg.

A pair of grape-like black eyeballs were embedded in his fair and clean little face. His hair looked very soft and slightly curly. He wore a black suspender suit and white socks that went up to his ankles, looking like a cartoon child that had walked out from a comic.

He stared at Yi Qingju for a long time before wrinkling his nose.

“How could Little Uncle marry such a shriveled woman?” The little milk bun muttered in a dissatisfied tone.

Auntie Zhang quickly said, “Little Young Master, you can’t say that. No matter how shriveled Madam's figure is, she was still married to Master through proper matchmaking!”

The little milk bun contemptuously pursed his lips. “Don’t think I don’t know that Little Uncle doesn’t even like her.”

Yi Qingju looked at the little milk bun in front of her who only came up to her kneecap. She craned her neck to peek behind Auntie Zhang.

【Where is the male lead?】

The system softly and stickily said, 【Isn't he right here? Look down!】

Yi Qingju lowered her gaze.

Standing in front of her and craning his head upwards, the little milk bun said in a milky voice, “Hey woman.”

“Are you a mute? Why don’t you speak, are you playing hard to get with Young Master?”

Yi Qingju raised her eyebrows.

【Is this little guy the male lead!?】

The system bashfully said, 【Yes, isn’t he very handsome?】

【He is quite handsome, with a foolish kind of handsomeness】

System: 【.....】

Having encountered the young male lead, Yi Qingju retracted her gaze and said to Auntie Zhang, "Auntie, I'm going to sleep now." She then went upstairs.

Little Bun was shocked.

"Is she...is she ignoring Young Master?" With teary eyes he looked up at Auntie Zhang. The little bun had an unbelievable look on his face.

Was this the vicious stepmother in TV dramas that emotionally abused children?

Where are you, my light, Di*ga!?

Completely unaware of whatever the little bun had imagined, Yi Qingju closed the door and plopped down onto the floor.

It was true that Qi Weiran had a nominal son. He was Little Uncle’s elder brother’s child, born before his brother passed away.

The child lost his father as soon as he was born. Qi Weiran then adopted him into his name.

Though nominally father and son, they were actually uncle and nephew.

The child had always been raised elsewhere. Yi Qingju didn’t know why Qi Weiran had suddenly brought him back.

【Qi Xinian, the male lead, only had a materially satisfying but emotionally cold Little Uncle since he was young. Due to the lack of affection in childhood, his personality became distorted as an adult and he became a paranoid man】

【The still immature male lead, if intentionally approached by the transmigrator, would surely affect his future feelings towards the female protagonist】

【You must have read those novels where people transmigrate as vicious female supporting characters, make the young male lead fall for them, so we have to stop them】

The system silently clenched its fist.

Listening to this, Yi Qingju nearly dozed off. She yawned and said 【Then where do I find the transmigrator? I don’t even know the original plot】

The system answered, 【Don’t worry, the transmigrator will take the initiative to approach the male lead. I’m very familiar with the full story. As long as someone’s identity seems suspicious, I’ll be able to recognize them】

Yi Qingju looked at it doubtfully, narrowing her eyes.

Could it really be so easy?

Lifting her skirt and pulling down the pants bunched up around her knees, Yi Qingju distastefully took off the white dress. In a few moves she put on her sports hoodie and flopped onto the bed.

【Since you’re inside my body, what happened to the original system?】 Yi Qingju couldn’t hide the excitement in her tone.

Unfortunately, the system regretfully told her in a soft voice, 【It’s still there】

【My energy isn’t enough to make it completely leave your body. I can only suppress it and stop it from electrocuting you. But you still have to maintain your image in front of Qi Weiran, otherwise the omnipresent transmigrator may notice something wrong】

【Only by driving the transmigrator away and gathering enough energy can I eliminate that system, and you’ll be able to truly be free in this world】

Yi Qingju’s eyes glimmered as she pondered this.

She had been suppressed by the system for too long, she had almost forgotten her original disposition of not passively waiting for death. Taking initiative and resolving problems quickly was her style.

With this in mind, she crawled out of bed.

【What do you call yourself? Calling you System all the time makes it hard to differentiate】 she hesitated.

Hearing this, the system happily said, 【Then give me a cute and soft name!】

Yi Qingju confidently smiled, 【I’m very good at this】

【From now on I’ll call you——】

【Xiao Jiji】

System: 【.....】

【Saying this name out loud doesn’t sound very elegant, does it?】 Its voice sounded like it was about to cry.

Yi Qingju coldly evaluated, 【A dirty mind sees dirt in everything】

Seeing that she got out of bed, Xiao Jiji couldn't help but ask, 【Where are you going?】

Yi Qingju put the hair tie in her mouth and gathered up her overly long black hair, 【We can’t just wait for that transmigrator to take our bait. I’ll go bring that little bun up to ask if there's anyone suspicious around him recently】

Xiao Jiji: 【......】

Aren’t you the most suspicious?

Just as it wanted to advise its host that it was better not to startle the snake in the grass, the phone that Yi Qingju had casually thrown onto the ground suddenly rang.

The sound in this quiet and spacious room was exceptionally jarring.

Yi Qingju was stunned. Because of her special identity, in order to ensure privacy, she was using a custom model developed by Qi Enterprise.

She didn’t have many social connections or friends, and normally couldn’t even receive spam texts.

And at this time, it wasn’t when the male lead did his broadcasts.

A perplexed look on her face, she picked up the phone with the screen cracked to pieces.

She unlocked it.

A text from an unknown number instantly popped up.

Unknown: Miss you baby, hope you’ve been well recently!

Xiao Jiji’s surprised voice rang out, 【If I'm not wrong, this is definitely the transmigrator!】

Yi Qingju calmly replied.

Yi Qingju: If you miss me then send money. The more you send the more you miss me.

Unknown: o

Yi Qingju: Don't lay eggs, send money.

Xiao Jiji: 【......】
