C17 Zhong Qing's Got Something on Me

I composed myself, put on a smile, and attentively said, "Hubby, after such a long meeting, you must be hungry. I brought you lunch."

I opened the lunchboxes and placed them out one by one. I handed the chopsticks to Lih Shaojue in an ingratiating manner. Seeing that Lih Shaojue didn't respond, I shouted again, "Hubby?"

Lih Shaojue glanced at the food on the table indifferently. With a splash, all the food was swept into the rubbish bin.

His tone was as cold as the weather in North City in December.

"Zhao Nanqian, don't do useless things to please me in the future. Get out."

The last two words were almost shouted out.

I didn't react for a long time. Although I knew that Lih Shaojue was uncertain, this was the first time I saw him so angry. Every word he said shook my head until it buzzed.

He had eaten an explosive packet.

Looking at Lih Shaojue's cold face, I gripped the chopsticks in my hand tightly.

After being yelled at like this, everyone has a temper. How many people would dare to throw a tantrum in front of Lih Shaojue?

I gritted my teeth and really wanted to suppress my anger. In order to make a living, I gave too many people smiles, but when I saw the food in the trash can, my anger rose.

I didn't even eat a single bite. When I lived in the basement, I was always hungry and couldn't even afford bread. When I was imprisoned by Zhao Nanqian, I was also hungry for a meal. At that time, don't talk about such good food. Just give me a rotten meal. I can swallow it.

The anger in my heart grew bigger and bigger, and I immediately shouted back, "Lih Shaojue, don't you think you don't know what's good for you. Who do you think you are? I'm willing to support you now, and you are my lord. If I'm not happy, what are you?"

Lih Shaojue was stunned by my shout. Even Emily, who followed Lih Shaojue in, stood at the door and didn't dare to enter.

I broke the chopsticks in my hand and threw them at Lih Shaojue's feet. At that moment, I couldn't care less about my original plan and left the office.

It's too difficult to make Lih Shaojue fall in love with me.

Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger.

I really regret not giving him the medicine yesterday and making him suffer to death by himself.

Downstairs, Lih Liancheng chased after me and called out to me, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Shaojue got angry in the office just now. Don't be angry. Shaojue wasn't angry at you. There was a problem with a project in the south, so he was in a bad mood."

Lih Shaojue was a person who would be affected by the project?

"Big brother, you don't have to speak for him. Who in the Lih family doesn't know that he doesn't like me?"

Even Old Madam Lih knew that Zhao Nanqian slept in separate rooms with Lih Shaojue. Perhaps the entire Lih family knew about it.

What did Zhao Nanqian rely on to marry into the Lih family? And what did she rely on to keep the title of Young Lady Li? If the outside world didn't know, how could the people of the Lih family not know?

Lih Liancheng smiled warmly, "That's Shaojue's character. I can see that you really like Shaojue. It is his fortune to be able to marry a wife like you. Oh right, let's go back to the old residence for dinner tonight. Grandma just called and said it herself. "

The real Zhao Nanqian might really like Lih Shaojue. As for me, Lih Shaojue's temper is so weird. I like anyone on the street better than him.

Since Old Madam Lih said so, she naturally had to go back.

"Okay, I will go over tonight." I said, "Big brother, I won't disturb your work anymore. I will go back first."

Lih Liancheng stood at the entrance of the company and watched me leave.

Ruan Qingtian sent me a message and asked me out for dinner. She promised the old mistress that she would be there for dinner, so Ruan Qingtian had no choice but to reject.

But if I had known that something would happen to Ruan Qingtian tonight, I wouldn't have rejected it.

I returned to the pear garden, but I didn't return to the villa. Instead, I went next door.

Perhaps Lih Shaojue didn't know that this villa was under Zhao Nanqian's name. She used this villa as a cage and locked me up for an entire year.

Zhao Nanqian pressed on the face recognition door. The moment I stood there, the door opened.

When I knocked Zhao Nanqian out and escaped, even though I was so close, I had never come in here before.

The hit I hit her with was not fatal. She should have woken up a long time ago, but she suddenly disappeared. This allowed me to stably pretend to be "Zhao Nanqian" and stay in the Lih family.

I also thought about where Zhao Nanqian went and when she would come back.

I pushed open the door of the wine cellar. There was still a stench coming from inside. The blood that flowed out when I gave birth had already dried up and turned black. Even the umbilical cord was still on the ground and there were chains hanging on the wall. It was this that Zhao Nanqian used to lock me up.

When I returned here, the images of those days of being imprisoned surfaced in my mind. Hatred also began to grow in my heart.

Suddenly, there were sounds of footsteps outside.

"Who is it?"

I became alert and immediately walked out. There was no one in the empty villa.

Did I mishear just now?

I didn't think too much about it. The furniture had already been covered with dust. No one had come here for a long time, and Zhao Nanqian wasn't here either.

I quickly left and at night, I brought Nannan to the old residence.

When I arrived, Lih Shaojue had not yet returned and Old Madam Lih and Liu Fen were playing with Nannan. Lih Youlan was not at home and heard that she went to study at a branch company. This time when she came back from overseas, Lih Zhenhua wanted her to help manage the company.

Before dinner time, I would walk around in the backyard of the old residence to avoid Old Madam Lih asking some questions and exposing myself.

There was a pavilion in the garden. I was just about to go over and take a seat when I realized that there was already someone inside.

It was Zhong Qing.

I turned around and walked to the other side. Zhong Qing called out to me, "Sister-in-law."

Zhong Qing walked over, "Sister-in-law, why did you leave when you saw me?"

I smiled and pretended to have just seen her and said in surprise, "Sister-in-law, so you are here too."

I also don't know what kind of relationship Zhong Qing has with that man. If that kind of relationship was between a man and a woman, she would have cheated on Lih Liancheng, but I bumped into her. Zhong Qing would definitely remember me.

I don't want to cause such trouble.

Zhong Qing frowned and explained, "Sister-in-law, the man you saw at noon was my old classmate. We are not the kind of relationship you think we have. I went to his place to see a doctor."

Carefully smelling it, Zhong Qing's body really had a faint medicinal smell.

Zhong Qing explained to me. I was quite surprised.

"Sister-in-law, you are worrying too much. You and Big Brother are lovey-dovey, why would I think that way?" I asked, "Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Do you want to go to the big hospital to take a look?"

"It's a small illness. There's no need to go to a big hospital. Just take a few doses of medicine and you'll be fine." Zhong Qing wanted to say something but stopped herself." Sister-in-law, you saw me at noon. Can you not mention it in front of grandma? "

This was strange. Zhong Qing was not worried that I would tell Lih Liancheng. Why was she worried that Old Madam Lih would know?

I did not care about Zhong Qing's reason and nodded in agreement, "Rest assured sister-in-law, I will not speak nonsense."

I agreed so readily and Zhong Qing was stunned.

I almost forgot Zhao Nanqian's temper. She is not a person who is so easy to talk to.

I know Zhao Nanqian but I am unable to pretend to be Zhao Nanqian at all times.

Just as I was about to say something, Zhong Qing suddenly asked me, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you divorce second brother? He doesn't love you. I know that you don't really love him. You only do it for the title of Young Madam Li. I once saw you enter the hotel with someone. "
