His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Wang Che was drinking alone in his study after getting the news from Zhong Feng that Shun was fine. He looked through the window into the dark night before taking another sip of his old red wine. Unfortunately, he could not even enjoy it. 

He thought about his fight with Shun. 

No, he had not stopped thinking about it. Every moment replayed like a movie on repeat. Or perhaps it was more of a bad sitcom rerun. Either way, the details repeated over and over and over. It was like he was stuck in purgatory, reliving his sins. 

The irony of the entire thing was the fact that he knew the reason the fight occurred. He understood why he was wrong, and he even knew how he could fix it. But he just could not. He was trapped in a nightmare and could not break free. 

If he could describe his current situation, he would say that it was something like sleep paralysis. 

He could see everything about his relationship with Shun clearly, but he could not move to fix it. He was just stuck in a bad cycle. And all he could do was watch as everything crumbled into pieces. 

It was almost hilarious how he could even analyse the cause of his emotional problems. What had Shun called him? Oh, emotionally constipated. 

He laughed to himself before pouring more wine into his glass. 

His problems began way before he got control of his life and became the Wang Che who was respected in Supreme City and beyond. Back then, he was like every pitiful child of a typical aristocratic family. And every decision he made had driven him closer and closer to the abyss. 

When he was a child, he was a typical middle child. Sure, he had other siblings stuck between him and his brothers, but they were girls. They were not too bothered with the internal fights in the Wang family. After all, they stood no chance to inherit. 

His eldest brother was the one who stood the highest chance of inheritance. While he was not exceptionally smart, he had the kind of manly spirit that his father valued above a good brain. His father would praise him constantly, especially when he got into fights. 

"A real man does not allow any disrespect, son!" He would say while tapping his son on the shoulders. "If someone comes at you, you must respond with a show of strength. Beat them down until they cannot stand. And no one will stand in your way in the future." 

Wang Che grew up while seeing his father all but egg on his brother to be a bully. Moreover, their father never encouraged them to learn. Even his advice about running a business did not involve any financial know-how. 

"Son, most business deals are not made in conference rooms. If you cannot close a deal in a club, your files will not help you." His father once told his brother. 

Unfortunately, Wang Che liked reading and learning. He would put a lot of effort into school since childhood. Perhaps, he did this because he got attention from his teachers. And maybe, even then, he knew that he would never meet his father's approval. 

When the youngest son was born, he became the baby that everyone lavished with love. Wang Che and his sisters were particularly fond of him. They would take time to play with him before and after school, and they would use their allowance to get him lavish gifts. 

The only person who did not like the child was the eldest brother, Wang Lu. He did not like the threat that the child presented. He did not consider Wang Che a threat because his parents did not pay attention to him. 

However, the youngest one, Wang Ning was like a treasure to everyone, even his father. 

Therefore, Wang Lu also started focussing on his youngest brother. While he was not a book-smart guy, his street smarts were unrivalled. He could not be tripped up by a child. He could come up with a way to deal with him. 

The plot he chose was spoiling him. It was not the usual kind of spoiling with gifts. Rather, Wang Lu encouraged him to be audacious. The boy was completely unruly by the time he joined kindergarten. He never put anyone in his eyes. 

As a result, he ended up offending some children of other important people in Supreme City. The Wang parents had to sacrifice a lot to repair the messes. Eventually, his family lost faith in him. He was no longer the golden child. 

As for the eldest brother, he became the crown prince again. 

Unfortunately, because Wang Lu overlooked Wang Che, he did not notice how excellent he became. He was always a low-key character. He did not try to be the most popular guy. Rather, he had a close-knit group of friends. 

Usually, he hung out with Qi Han and Mo Ge. Neither of them seemed like they had a good future in Supreme City, so Wang Lu did not bother with him. He did not have time to waste on a minor character who could not even get their parents' attention. 

But his oversight became costly. 

When Wang Che was fifteen, he won a major competition that involved preparing a business proposal for the city. The project was open to students, but the project was to be awarded to the company the winning student chose. 

Naturally, Wang Che chose his family. 

His parents saw him in a new light immediately. The change was so sudden because his parents no longer ignored him as they always did. 

Wang Che was no longer the forgotten middle child, but the future of the Wang family. He became the source of pride in comparison to his eldest brother who was flunking his college exams and being a nuisance in the city by hanging out with suspicious characters. 

When Wang Lu learned of what was happening, he felt like he was at risk of losing everything. So he acted. And his actions were cruel, beyond cruel. The beauty of the plan was that no one could suspect him because of the nefarious nature of his plot. 

As Wang Che was reminiscing, his phone rang. He snapped out of his morose thoughts and looked at his with hope. But it was not Shun calling for reconciliation. Of course, it was not Shun.

"What's wrong?" He asked. 

"Hey, hey!" The person said. "Why are you being so snappish? Shouldn't you be enjoying a blissful life?" 

"If you have nothing to report, I am hanging up." Wang Che said gruffly. 

"Ugh! Why do I even try to be nice to you?" Caterina asked with annoyance. "Anyway, I reached out to an old friend to comb through the surveillance again and review our data for that day. And they were able to identify the culprits." 

Wang Che put down his wine glass. His hands shook slightly at the exposure of the new information. He could not believe that something could be found after so long. 

"How is that possible?" 

"My friend is very good," Caterina said proudly. 

"What did you find out? Have you identified the culprit?" Wang Che asked. 

"Slow down. I did not find a magician. The thing is, the people who tampered with Furukawa Shun's car were guns for hire. The two people can be traced back to Supreme City, so the person who sent them is likely from there." Caterina said. 

"How did they get in?" Wang Che asked. 

"Well, that is the fun part. They were posing as valets during the wedding. I have reviewed the information and found that some additional valets were hired during the event. Since there were too many guests, the in-house valets could not handle the work efficiently." Caterina explained. 

"I am aware of this. The Summit manager used a reputable company that provides elite staff for special events. How did this happen? I will deal with them." Wang Che was beyond angry. 

"Slow down, cowboy. The company is owned by Cherry Blossom. You should know him. He is not an easy guy to deal with, but I was able to charm him for more information." Caterina was proud, almost preening, as she said these words. 

"I do not care about his identity. If he had any part in the accident, I will deal with him." Wang Che was fired up. Not only was Shun hurt, but their relationship was also deeply fissured due to that unfortunate event. 

"He did not have anything to do with it, strictly speaking," Caterina said. "It turns out that a week after the wedding, two employees were found dead. Their bodies were discovered when they washed up on a beach. It looks like the culprits used their identities to get into Clarion Extreme." 

"Has your friend identified them?" Wang Che asked. 

"Yes, but the bad news is that they are also dead. Each had a shot to the back of the head. Execution style. I guess they knew too much, and their master could not take the risk." Caterina sighed. "I know it does not help you much, but I thought you should know." 

"No, the information was helpful. Thank you, Caterina." Wang Che said before he hung up the phone. 

He looked into the deep night again. The people that attacked Shun were from Supreme City, and he had a clue about the identity of their master. He could not be sure about the specific person who had acted, but he knew one thing. 

It was time he reconnected with his family.
