Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 250 This time the misunderstanding is huge (3)

Yan Zuozuo looked at him and said, "I should be the guest, shouldn't I? Please do as you please, so as not to spoil your fun."

No matter how ashen Chi Moqing's face was, Yan Zuozuo left without looking back. She knew she was being willful and rude, but she simply couldn't bear to sit there and watch Chi Moqing and Tong Shili being intimate.

If Chi Moqing intended to force her to leave using this method, then he had indeed succeeded. She originally thought she was inferior to Tong Shili in every way, but at least she still had his love. But now she wasn't so sure. The thought of the aloof CEO Chi suddenly showing affection to another woman made her unable to find a better explanation than that he was interested in her.

As she walked out of the coffee shop, she glanced back and saw Tong Shili feeding Chi Moqing a piece of steak. This woman was clearly seducing him. Yan Zuozuo's heart skipped a beat, and she nervously watched Chi Moqing's actions.

Chi Moqing frowned in disgust, intending to refuse. However, upon seeing Yan Zuozuo's gaze, he ate it without a second thought.

Yan Zuozuo's heart was utterly broken; her last shred of hope had vanished without a trace. It was time for her to leave. She wished them well…

She turned and left without looking back.

Chi Moqing had expected Yan Zuozuo to storm in angrily, but to his surprise, she turned and ran away. Damn it, what had he just done? Hurting her was never something he wanted to do, yet he had just done it!

He hated himself, yet he was heartbroken that he and his beloved wife had ended up like this.

Seeing that Chi Moqing had eaten the steak she had brought to his mouth, Tong Shili offered him another piece, but Chi Moqing refused it. Her face darkened as she said, "I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. You guys eat, I'll be going now."

Tong Shili stared wide-eyed in astonishment at Chi Moqing's departing figure, a hint of embarrassment flashing in her eyes. She opened her mouth to call out to him, but was interrupted by Fisher, "The Tong Shili I know isn't someone who can't read the room."

Tong Shili's face turned cold: "What do you mean by that?"

“It didn’t mean anything, I was just reminding you that your eating manners were quite poor.” Fisher elegantly ate a piece of steak, looking at her with a half-smile. “You can’t tell that President Chi was just deliberately trying to anger Mrs. Chi?”

Tong Shili retorted angrily, "So what? If you want to get what you like, you have to know how to seize opportunities. Isn't that what you're doing?"

"But I know when to stop, when to stop. Shili, don't blame me for not reminding you, the more eager you are to push your luck, the more likely you are to be disliked. Everything is about knowing when to advance and when to retreat, understand?"

Tong Shili was taken aback for a moment, then smiled elegantly, "So you're planning to form a united front with me?"

Fisher smiled and shook his head: "I'm just giving you a reminder. Believe me, President Chi is just jealous tonight. He definitely doesn't have the affection you think he has. You'd be more attractive if you continued to maintain your elegant and proper facade."

"Are you mocking me?" Tong Shili said unhappily.

Fisher raised his glass, smiled, and said, "How could I dare?" He took a sip of red wine. "I'm just giving you a dose of reality now and then, to keep you sober."

Tong Shili frowned slightly, somewhat unable to fathom Fisher's thoughts. If he liked Yan Zuozuo, shouldn't he join forces with her to sabotage their marriage? Why did she get the feeling that he was giving her a warning?

She narrowed her eyes. A warning to her? Does Fisher deserve it?

Yan Zuozuo came out of the coffee shop and wandered aimlessly through the streets. She didn't want to go home, didn't want to go back to that warm place, which was full of her beautiful memories with Chi Moqing, and it was not suitable for her current sad mood.

She didn't know where to go, just wandering through the crowd, watching others pass by in pairs, while she remained all alone. Perhaps this would be her life from now on; she should learn to adapt slowly.

She used to take all of Chi Moqing's pampering for granted, assuming he wouldn't be so affectionate with other women. But now she realized she was wrong. She had taken everything for granted and forgotten that Chi Moqing would treat other women the same way when she wasn't looking.

He was being affectionate with Tong Shili in front of her today; wasn't he trying to tell her what he meant? He has another woman in his heart; it's time for her to leave him...

She lowered her eyes, and tears welled up without her realizing it. Although she hadn't initially held out hope for this marriage, over the past two years, she had fallen in love with him and begun to look forward to a long and lasting relationship. But she never expected...

A pang of sadness welled up in her heart!

Perhaps she shouldn't have had any hope from the very beginning. No matter how deep the love of youth and ignorance may be, it can't withstand the wear and tear of daily life. Perhaps in just two years, they had already reached the seven-year itch that most people experience.

It's time to leave...

Yan Zuozuo closed her eyes, clenched her fists tightly, and then suddenly relaxed. Some things are not something she can possess forever no matter how hard she tries. If he wants to leave, no matter what, she can't keep him.

Why don't you just let go?

Her conversation with Fisher had initially led her to decide to be honest with Chi Moqing about everything, but now it seemed unnecessary. Since she was leaving, why should she upset him further? Leaving perfectly was also a good ending.

When Yan Zuozuo got home, Chi Moqing was already there. He was sitting in the living room smoking, looking very angry. Seeing him like this, Yan Zuozuo felt a little suffocated. Was he still angry about her rudeness earlier that day, for abandoning Tong Shili?

She smiled wryly, quietly changed her shoes, and went upstairs.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Chi Moqing had been waiting for her at home for two whole hours. During that time, he was worried sick, afraid that something had happened to her. He called her, but her phone was off; he went out to look for her, but couldn't find her. He was frantic with worry, but when she came back, she didn't say a word.

Yan Zuozuo's breath hitched. Did he want her to apologize for her rudeness just now?

She pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper today. If you think I did something wrong, I'll call Ms. Tong later and apologize to her."

Chi Moqing froze. What was she talking about? When did he ask her to apologize to Tong Shili?

He turned around, staring intently at her. "Where did you just go?"

"I'll just wander around. Don't worry, I'll be on my own." Yan Zuozuo felt exhausted and heartbroken. She just wanted to be alone and didn't want to argue with him. But her words ignited Chi Moqing's anger: "You!" He clenched his fist. "Fine, I'll ask you, why did you lie to me today?"

Yan Zuozuo glanced at him with a sorrowful expression: "If I hadn't lied, I might not have known that you could be so gentle with other women..."

Chi Moqing's breath hitched, and he stared at her for a long while. "Is this your explanation?"

Yan Zuozuo stared blankly at him: "Chi Moqing, I'm really tired today. Please, I'm begging you, can you just leave me alone?"

Are you running away?

Startled by Chi Moqing's outburst, Yan Zuozuo looked at her in astonishment, tears welling in her eyes. So this was the difference between love and indifference? She felt a heart-wrenching pain.

She clenched her fists, not wanting to look into his cruel eyes, and ran back to the bedroom. Was it because of Tong Shili that he was becoming increasingly impatient with her? How could he do this? How could he be so cruel to her when she had fallen in love with him? She collapsed onto the bed, crying her heart out.

Chi Moqing was locked out of the room. Hearing the crying inside, his heart clenched, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He slowly closed his eyes and slammed his fist against the wall.

The moment he saw Yan Zuozuo and Fisher together, he wanted nothing more than to kill Fisher. He was truly angry and jealous. The deeper his love for Yan Zuozuo, the less he could tolerate other men getting close to her. So, he deliberately staged that scene in front of her, wanting her to experience the taste of jealousy.

But what exactly did his wife misunderstand? What did she mean by apologizing to Tong Shili? What did she mean by him being gentle with other women? Didn't she know he was jealous? That damned little woman!

He desperately wanted to rush in and shake her awake, but seeing how upset she was, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Her tears extinguished his raging anger, but they also tore at his heart.

He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how; his mind was blank. However, the thought of her not being honest with him filled him with resentment. He was her husband, her man. Why would she rather ask Fisher for help than be honest with him and let him share her burden?

He was her everything, her husband!

Chi Moqing was torn by a mix of emotions, and in the end, he didn't go back to his room to sleep. He stayed in the study all night.

Zuo Zuo had been waiting for him to appear. If he came into the room tonight, she would be honest with him and tell him everything. No matter how he treated her, she would accept it.

However, Chi Moqing didn't step into the room all night. She felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears welled up uncontrollably. She wiped them away again and again, but couldn't stop them.

This was the first time in two years that they had argued and gotten this angry. She bit her lip hard, feeling a salty, fishy taste filling her mouth.

A drop of blood slid down the corner of her mouth and onto the snow-white sheets, followed by a second, then a third. The stark contrast between red and white was jarring, and she was utterly devastated...

When she woke up the next day, Chi Moqing was no longer home. Breakfast was still on the table, but she had no appetite and didn't eat it. She simply grabbed her bag and went to work.

Tong Shili has arrived. She is in the same group as Yan Zuozuo. Nominally, Yan Zuozuo is the group leader, but in reality, there is no particular title; everyone just calls each other by their names.

At this moment, in Fisher's office, Tong Shili sat across from Fisher with a cup of coffee. "I have nothing to hide. I came here for only one purpose: to see what kind of woman Yan Zuozuo really is, so that I can prescribe the right medicine and get everything I want."

Fisher smiled slightly: "You should know that honesty has always been what I admire most about you."

"Should I thank you for the praise, Director?" Tong Shili asked with a half-smile, taking a sip of coffee. "So, are you interested in working with me?"

"Cooperation? What do you mean?"

“You get your Yan Zuozuo, and I get my Chi Moqing.” Tong Shili’s lips curled slightly. Seeing that Fisher was about to object, she spoke up first, “Let’s not play games. You know Yan Zuozuo is married, yet you still make all sorts of excuses to ask her out. Isn’t that blatant coercion and power struggle?”

“Hahaha!” Fisher laughed. “I say, Shiri, sometimes you’re really not cute enough when you’re being honest.”

"Thank you for the compliment." Tong Shili took another sip of coffee. "Tell me, should I agree?"

Fisher narrowed his eyes slightly: "As a sign of sincerity in our cooperation, shouldn't Shili also reveal her identity? Otherwise, if I were to be assassinated one day, I would die with my eyes open in disgrace."

Upon hearing this, Tong Shili's face suddenly darkened.
