The husband I got is actually the heir to a wealthy family

Cheng Jingjing's cold tone immediately changed Zhao Yu's mood from joy to depression. She came to see me so late, Beichen must have said something to her.

Realizing that Cheng Jingjing didn't come to see him on her own initiative, Zhao Yu's mood instantly dropped. He sat up from the bed and looked at Cheng Jingjing. He asked calmly, "What are you doing here so late?"

In fact, Cheng Jingjing herself couldn't explain why she came to the Zhao Mansion. The moment she got in the taxi, she had only one thought in her mind. She wanted to see Zhao Yu and ask him if he went to Nanhu Square tonight. She also wanted to ask him if he had seen her and Xie Tianyi together.

But at this moment, when facing Zhao Yu, especially facing his unusually cold expression, Cheng Jingjing did not dare to ask the questions she wanted to ask.

"I heard from my cousin that you called him, so I thought of coming to see you, but I didn't expect that you would be sick when I got here." In a panic, Cheng Jingjing used Huo Beichen as a shield.

It turned out that it was Beichen who asked her to come.

After hearing what Cheng Jingjing said, Zhao Yu's heart fell to the bottom.

"You have already seen the person and the mission has been completed. You can go home." Thinking of this, Zhao Yu's tone became even colder.

Zhao Yu, who always obeyed her, had never spoken to Cheng Jingjing in this tone. Cheng Jingjing was a little at a loss and stood there with the bowl in her hand.

Seeing that Cheng Jingjing didn't move, Zhao Yu said again: "I'll send someone to take you back."

"No need. Just drink this bowl of medicine and I'll leave." Cheng Jingjing came back to her senses, handed the bowl in her hand to Zhao Yu, and said lightly.

Zhao Yu stared at Cheng Jingjing for a few seconds, took the bowl of medicine, and drank it in one breath.

Putting the medicine bowl back into Cheng Jingjing's hands, Zhao Yu said expressionlessly: "This time, your mission is completely completed, and you can really leave."

After saying that, he turned around and faced Cheng Jingjing with his back.

"Do you think that I came to see you and brought you medicine just to complete the task?" Cheng Jingjing asked in disbelief.

Cheng Jingjing couldn't stand Zhao Yu in front of her.

"What else?" Zhao Yu asked back, still with his back to Cheng Jingjing.

"I..." After saying the word 'I', Cheng Jingjing became hesitant. There were some things she didn't know how to say.

Zhao Yu became even more disheartened by Cheng Jingjing's reaction. She was unwilling to even tell him a lie. It seemed that Cheng Jingjing really didn't take him seriously.

Recalling the scene when he saw Cheng Jingjing and Xie Tianyi together at Nanhu Square, Zhao Yu felt a pain in his heart.

"Go back. I'm a little tired and don't want to talk." Facing Cheng Jingjing, Zhao Yu couldn't say any hurtful words. After weighing the pros and cons, Zhao Yu once again ordered her to leave.

His attitude made Cheng Jingjing even more unhappy.

Putting the bowl in her hand on the bedside table, Cheng Jingjing sat on the bedside and said unconvincedly: "You said I came to see you to complete a mission, so every time you treat me well, isn't it to complete a mission?"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yu was excited when he felt Cheng Jingjing sitting beside his bed just now. Now, hearing Cheng Jingjing say this, Zhao Yu's mood became depressed again.

Cheng Jingjing snorted coldly and said indignantly, "We grew up together. Friendship and family affection are better than love. The kindness you show to me is just the kindness of an older brother to a younger sister. How could there be love between us?"

"Is this what you think?" Zhao Yu was so angry at Cheng Jingjing's words that his head started to hurt again.

Cheng Jingjing hummed softly and responded: "I don't want you to do something you don't want to do for the sake of so-called marriage."

"Jingjing, do you want to dissolve your marriage with me?" Zhao Yu turned around abruptly, stared at Cheng Jingjing, and said with a gloomy face.

Frightened by his eyes, Cheng Jingjing sat on the edge of the bed without any reaction.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Zhao Yu sighed, and said listlessly: "I want to rest, you go back."

Zhao Yu's words were like a pardon. Cheng Jingjing nodded, stood up and quickly walked out of the bedroom.

Looking at Cheng Jingjing's back getting farther and farther away, Zhao Yu felt unwilling: Jingjing, how I feel about you, don't you understand? But why do you still think that way? Is it really all my wishful thinking?

After walking out of Zhao Yu's bedroom, Cheng Jingjing closed the door and leaned against the wall in a daze.

Cheng Jingjing seemed unable to take the next step with Zhao Yu, but she also seemed unable to really cancel the engagement with Zhao Yu.

Cheng Jingjing didn't understand when she became so hesitant.

Recalling what Huo Beichen had said on the phone before, Cheng Jingjing hated her own behavior very much. The longer she dragged it out, the greater the harm to both of them. She really should have made a decision earlier.

Cheng Jingjing stood there for a while before walking downstairs.

As soon as she went downstairs, the housekeeper came up to her and looked at Cheng Jingjing and said, "Miss Jingjing, the young master asked me to send someone to take you home. He said it's too late now and it's not convenient for a girl like you to go home by car alone."

Hearing the housekeeper say this, Cheng Jingjing couldn't help but look upstairs where Zhao Yu was, then turned back and smiled and responded: "Okay."

Ning Xi is right, Zhao Yu is really good to me.

Sitting in the Zhao family's car, Cheng Jingjing thought that Zhao Yu did not forget her safety even when he was angry. She felt mixed emotions and believed more firmly in what Mu Ningxi had said before.

In the middle of the night, Mu Ningxi on the bed suddenly became restless. She twisted her body and murmured to herself, "No, don't come over here, all of you go away."

Huo Beichen, who was sleeping next to her, was awakened by Mu Ningxi's voice. He reached out and hugged her in his arms, asking, "Ningxi, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Ningxi in his arms did not wake up and could not hear what Huo Beichen said. She continued to talk to herself, "Bad guys, you are all bad guys."

As he spoke, Mu Ningxi pulled his hands out of Huo Beichen's arms and waved them in the air.

"Mu Ningxi, it's me, I'm Huo Beichen. Don't be afraid, I'm by your side now, and no one can bully you anymore." Mu Ningxi realized that she must have had a nightmare and was bullied in the dream. Huo Beichen hugged her tightly again and comforted her.

"Huo Beichen, who is Huo Beichen?" Hearing Huo Beichen's words, Mu Ningxi stopped struggling, opened her eyes, looked at the man in front of her, and asked.

You are such a heartless person that you even forgot your own husband.

Huo Beichen was angered by Mu Ningxi's words. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Mu Ningxi speak first: "Oh, I know, Huo Beichen is my fake husband in name only."

Without waiting for Huo Beichen to respond, Mu Ningxi approached Huo Beichen and said mysteriously, "Let me tell you a secret. Huo Beichen is not only my fake husband, he is also my boss, a ruthless workaholic."
