Zhao Ningchu sighed heavily: "Ji Xiuran, I find that you always like to lie to me!"
Ji Xiuran subconsciously defended: "Absolutely not!"
Zhao Ningchu pushed her away and said coldly: "Okay, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask you questions again."
**
After returning from Fengcheng, Ji Xiuran discovered a huge problem.
It's just that his wife seems to be indifferent to him and very cold.
In just two days, Ji Xiuran was already feeling tormented.
He looked at Zhao Ningchu who was sleeping next to the bed, leaned over and kissed her gently, and sighed: "In the past two days, I have only been good when I was asleep."
After saying that, he put his hand on Zhao Ningchu's abdomen. There was his own little cotton-padded jacket here. Thinking of this, the smile on his face became even bigger.
When Zhao Ningchu woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning. She yawned and turned over on the bed, without any intention of getting up.
Zhao Ningchu blames the fact that she always sleeps in late on the bed, which is better suited to the winter.
The bedroom door was pushed open from the outside, Ji Xiuran walked in, smiled and said: "Are you awake?"
Zhao Ningchu was a little surprised when she saw him. Ji Xiuran had been leaving early and coming back late every day for the past two days. Today, at this hour, he was at home for the first time.
"Why are you still here?"
Zhao Ningchu glanced at him.
When Ji Xiuran heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
"Are you so unhappy when I'm here?"
Zhao Ningchu was stunned for half a second, then stood up and yawned and walked towards the bathroom.
Ji Xiuran sighed silently, followed her, and said softly: "I made you your favorite dish, go downstairs and have some!"
Zhao Ningchu said calmly while brushing his teeth: "I understand."
Ji Xiuran felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Zhao Ningchu's cold look. When they were in Fengcheng before, they had brushed their teeth carefully because of a kiss, but now.
In the two days since Fengcheng came back, Zhao Ningchu wouldn't let him kiss or hug her. Unless she was asleep, he would kiss her and hold her to sleep for a while.
After Zhao Ningchu finished washing, she walked directly past Ji Xiuran and walked downstairs. Ji Xiuran followed behind with some annoyance.
When she came to the kitchen and looked at the dishes on the table that suited her taste, Zhao Ningchu sat down and ate by herself, ignoring the dark-faced Ji Xiuran beside him.
"Wife!"
Ji Xiuran sat opposite her and spoke pitifully.
Zhao Ningchu raised her head, glanced at him, and said calmly: "Aren't you going to the company at this time?"
"I noticed that you are so cold to me. Do you want to take advantage of me and run away with the child secretly again?"
Zhao Ningchu was a little speechless, but did not explain too much: "Go to work!"
"I've been home very late these past two days, and you didn't even ask me what I was doing?"
"Don't ask!"
"Why?"
Zhao Ningchu sighed: "Isn't it bad to believe you?"
"I don't think you believe it at all. You don't care about me anymore. No matter what I do outside, you don't care anymore, do you?"
Zhao Ningchu put down her chopsticks and looked at him: "I want to have breakfast quietly, is that okay?"
Ji Xiuran was so angry and helpless that he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his own mouth, got up angrily and left the villa.
Zhao Ningchu heard the slamming of the door, got up and walked towards the balcony. All she saw was the rear of Ji Xiuran's car.
Not long after Ji Xiuran left, Gu Ran came.
Discuss marriage with her.
"Ran Ran, are you really not going to invite someone from your family to get married?"
Gu Ran shook her head without thinking: "We broke off the relationship five years ago, why bother."
Zhao Ningchu sighed, reached out to hold her hand, and encouraged: "It's okay, I am your mother-in-law."
"That's necessary."
"By the way, where is your hotel located? Has the wedding room been decorated?"
Gu Ran nodded: "The hotel is the Tenglong Bay Hotel under Ji's name. Su Yang said that the wedding room has been renovated a long time ago."
'It seems that he has long been planning to marry you home.'
When Gu Ran heard this, a smile appeared on her face.
"Maybe!" After Gu Ran finished speaking, she suddenly thought of Zhao Ningchu and hurriedly said: "By the way, I haven't asked how you and your family are doing, Mr. Ji? The misunderstanding has been resolved. Where is your proposal? Have you asked for it?"
Zhao Ningchu sighed and shook his head slightly.
Gu Ran looked worried and said, "What's wrong?"
"I always feel a little uneasy, I don't know why?"
"Why do you feel uneasy? Is it because Ji Xiuran doesn't give you enough sense of security or is there something going on?"
"Ran Ran, I found out that Ji Xiuran did something without telling me, but he didn't tell me."
When Gu Ran heard this, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was something big.
"He won't tell you, just ask him."
"He just doesn't say anything."
"Will it be a surprise?"
Zhao Ningchu shook his head: "I no longer expect him to give me any surprises. As long as he doesn't end up like last time and can't contact anyone for a few days, I'll be fine."
"You, don't think too much! Communicate properly if there is anything going on. It's not easy for two people to get together."
Zhao Ningchu was a little depressed: "I know it too, but I just can't help it. I don't know why?"
"I feel that your current state is like that of Su Yang's sister. She has been very emotionally unstable since she became pregnant. You can't be pregnant, right?"
When Zhao Ning first heard this, he was stunned for half a second, and then denied it: "How is that possible!"
"Why don't you buy a pregnancy test stick and try it, so you can feel more at ease."
"It's impossible, we all have measures in place."
"Condoms are not 100% sure. In case your boss Ji is playing tricks on you, go and test it."
Although Zhao Ningchu said it was impossible, he was already thinking about where there were pharmacies around the community.
After sending Gu Ran away, Zhao Ningchu turned around and went to the drugstore to buy a box of pregnancy test sticks.
She sat in the bathroom, looking at the box in her hand, hesitating.
If she was pregnant, would Ji Xiuran like it?
He is always clamoring for some little cotton-padded jacket.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ningchu put the box away and planned to try it when Ji Xiuran came back.
But until after ten o'clock in the evening, Ji Xiuran did not come back.
Zhao Ningchu was a little angry and took out his cell phone to call Ji Xiuran. The phone rang for a long time before he was answered.
Zhao Ningchu said with some displeasure: "Ji Xiuran, you don't plan to come back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's voice came from inside: "Well, hello, Mr. Ji is going to the bathroom now. Wait for him to come back..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu hung up the phone directly.
woman!
So this point is to find a woman.
I really feel like I’m going to be lawless if I don’t ask questions.
Dog man!
On the other side, Ji Xiuran came out of the bathroom, and the assistant sitting next to him said, "Mr. Ji, your phone rang just now."
Ji Xiuran said indifferently, without even asking who called.
The assistant hesitated for a moment, then continued: "I saw that the call was from your wife. I thought it must be something urgent, so I helped answer the call."
When Ji Xiuran heard this, he quickly picked up his phone and opened the address book. When he saw the call history, he felt a little happy.
Sure enough, he still cared about himself, so he called me at ten o'clock.
Suddenly, when he thought of something, Ji Xiuran turned to look at the new assistant and said with a cold face: "You answered my call without permission?"
The assistant was startled. Before he could explain, Ji Xiuran's cold voice came over: "Go directly to Su Yang tomorrow."
After saying that, he stood up suddenly and said to the people present: "Sorry, I'm going back first!"
When the people around him heard this, they quickly spoke to persuade him to stay.
'Mr. Ji, it's rare to come out for a gathering, why did you leave so quickly?'
Ji Xiuran picked up his suit jacket, put it on, and said, "My wife is urging me. I'm going to be late when I get home. I'm going to be kneeled down."
Ji Xiuran's words stunned everyone present.
Those present were all well-known people from Yanjing, either business leaders or political leaders. Behind his back, the red flag at home was not falling, but outside he was flying colorful flags.
When they heard Ji Xiuran say this, they were all surprised. They didn't expect that the dignified CEO of the Ji family was a strict henpecker.
“It’s a rare gathering, and there’s still another one!”
Ji Xiuran smiled: "I can't help it, my wife has strict control. Let's meet again after the new year!"
After saying that, he left the private room.
When Ji Xiuran returned to the villa, it was already half past ten. He stood outside and waited for the smell of alcohol on his body to dissipate before entering.
Arriving at the bedroom, Ji Xiuran reached out to open the door and found that the door was locked from the inside.
He sighed helplessly.
The door was closed again.
Ji Xiuran reached out and knocked on the door, and said softly: "Honey, I'm back. Open the door."
At this moment, Zhao Ningchu was leaning on the bedside, playing with his tablet in his hand, as if he didn't hear the knock on the door.
Xiaobai, who was lying aside, turned to look at her and whispered: "Mommy, daddy is knocking on the door. He is back."
"Ignore him. If he wants to be happy outside, let him be happy as much as he can. Baby, you can sleep with mommy tonight and not your dad."
Xiaobai heard this and closed his eyes obediently.
Zhao Ningchu put away the tablet in his hand and kissed Xiaobai gently on the cheek: "Good night, baby!"
It was so late, Xiao Bai was also sleepy, and he fell asleep soon after closing his eyes.
The knocking on the door outside continues: 'Honey, open the door. There was a misunderstanding just now. Please open the door and I will explain to you, okay?'
At this moment, Zhao Ningchu was furious. Based on her previous experience in Fengcheng, it was impossible for her to open the door for Ji Xiuran.
I simply pretended not to hear it and slept with my eyes closed.
Zhao Zhenguo, who was downstairs, got up to pour some water. Hearing the noise, he curiously went upstairs with the water glass.
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Ji Xiuran sitting at the door, quietly calling Zhao Ningchu to open the door.
Seeing that he was drunk like this, Zhao Zhenguo couldn't help but stepped forward with some concern: "Xiuran, have you been drinking?"
Ji Xiuran turned his head and glanced at Zhao Zhenguo, then nodded slightly: "Well, I drank a little."
"Hurry in and take a rest. What are you talking about sitting on the corridor?"
"Xiao Chu is angry and won't let me in!"
Zhao Zhenguo sighed: "Why did you offend her?"
"Maybe she got angry because she came home late!"
When Zhao Zhenguo saw Ji Xiuran sitting at the door, there was nothing he could do, so he reached out and knocked on the door of the room.
"Xiaochu, I'm dad, what do you mean by letting people in and shutting them up at the door?"
Zhao Ningchu's voice came from inside the room: "Dad, go to bed and leave him alone."
"If there are any problems between husband and wife, please communicate. You open the door first. I think Xiu Ran is drunk."
Zhao Ningchu said nothing.
Zhao Zhenguo continued to persuade.
When Ji Xiuran saw this, he always felt that something was going on, so he followed Zhao Zhenguo and said, "Wife, can you open the door? I can explain it to you. Don't be angry. Don't worry dad, okay?"
Zhao Ningchu ignored him and continued: "Daughter-in-law, I'm drunk and I feel so uncomfortable now."
Zhao Zhenguo on the side saw that Zhao Ningchu had not opened the door, so he suggested: "Xiuran, how about you sleep in the guest room tonight, and I will cook you sobering soup?"
Ji Xiuran shook his head and refused.
"No, she will open the door in a moment. You can go and rest first. It's very late."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bedroom door was opened, and Zhao Ningchu glared at Ji Xiuran with an unhappy expression.
Ji Xiuran saw this and grinned: "Daughter-in-law, I know you can't bear for me to sleep at the door."
Zhao Ningchu glared at him and said mockingly: "What? What are you doing here when you have a woman by your side?"
Ji Xiuran heard this and smiled: "My wife is here, of course I want to come back."
He knew that his wife cared about him, otherwise she wouldn't be jealous and shut him in the door.
Zhao Ningchu rolled her eyes at him: "Who is your wife?"
Ji Xiuran pointed at her: "You, you are my wife!"
After saying that, he rushed towards Zhao Ningchu and hugged him.
"Daughter-in-law, why haven't you let me hold you for the past two days?"
It was okay not to say it, but Zhao Ningchu got angry and pushed him away.
She felt that she didn't use much strength, but Ji Xiuran was pushed to the ground by her.
Ji Xiuran tried to get up, but he couldn't get up, probably because of drinking.
Zhao Ningchu looked at his slightly embarrassed look, couldn't help but sigh, stepped forward, and reached out to help him up.
"Next time you dare to drink, don't come back."
Ji Xiuran put his hand on her shoulder and looked at her: "Achu, you care about me, right?"
Zhao Ningchu didn't say anything and directly helped him to the bathroom.
Ji Xiuran continued to ask: "Tell me, you care about me. I can explain tonight. That woman is Su Yang's new assistant. I have fired her. Please don't be angry, okay?"
Zhao Ningchu sighed.
That's not why she was angry.
She believed that Ji Xiuran's feelings for her were angry because Ji Xiuran was not honest enough with her.
"I'm not angry."
"Really?"
"Well, go and wash up, and I'll make you sobering soup!"
When Ji Xiuran heard that she wanted to leave, he hugged her and said coquettishly: "No, don't leave."
Zhao Ningchu looked at his coquettish look and felt a little dumbfounded.
She reached out and rubbed his hair: "I'm going to make you some sobering soup. Also, you're very heavy leaning against me."
"I'm drunk and can't stand still."
Zhao Ningchu looked at him directly: "Are you sure you are drunk?"
Ji Xiuran nodded.
"You drove back home by yourself when you were drunk. Are you driving under the influence?"
When the lie was exposed, Ji Xiuran smiled awkwardly.
"Actually, I'm not that drunk. I came back to find a driver, not a drunk driver."
After saying that, he quickly walked towards the bathroom.
Zhao Ningchu heard the rustling sounds coming from the bathroom, sighed silently, turned and walked downstairs to prepare sobering soup for Ji Xiuran.
When Zhao Ningchu finished it, Ji Xiuran came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe.
Zhao Ningchu handed him the bowl in his hand: "Drink."
Ji Xiuran obediently reached out to take it and drank it all in one breath.
He put the bowl aside and looked at Zhao Ningchu intently.
"Daughter-in-law, are you still angry?"
"angry!"
"I can explain, tonight I really..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu interrupted: "It's not because of tonight, it was before."
Ji Xiuran thought for a moment and said, "Is it that night in Fengcheng?"
After Zhao Ningchu expressed his doubts, he felt a lot more relaxed.
The more she thought about it these days, the more uncomfortable she became.
Especially since Ji Xiuran hasn't told her yet.
Ji Xiuran thought for a while and said, "I really didn't go shopping that night, I went to do something."
Zhao Ningchu rolled her eyes at him: "Have you ever gone for a walk and been covered in blood?"
"I went to find Zhang Feng that night."
When Zhao Ning first heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
Ji Xiuran continued: "I found someone to tie him up, beat him up, and help you get out."
"You, why are you so impulsive?"
"He bullied you like that. I promised you that I won't let anyone bully you."
When Zhao Ning first heard this, her nose felt a little sore and she was very touched, but she still turned her head away from her arrogantly.
Ji Xiuran stepped forward, hugged her in his arms, and murmured: "In this life, you are the only one I have, Ah Chu, thank you for staying with me."
"Go to bed, it's very late."
Ji Xiuran shook his head: "No!"
Zhao Ningchu pushed him away gently and looked up at him: "What do you want to do if you don't sleep?"
