The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO
Chapter 170 I Lied to You
The two of them just had a quarrel, but there was no tension as before. Nie Zheng even doubted whether they really had a quarrel.
Aunt Wang, who had been busy in the kitchen, finally showed up. She walked over to Nie Zheng and patted her shoulder gently, which brought her back to her senses.
As if waking up from a dream, Nie Zheng asked Wang Ma: "Do you know why my brother went to the hospital today?"
"For some reason, the young master's stomach problem recurred today. The doctor asked him to have a regular checkup every six months. Because of Touyun's matter, he put it off for more than two months and only went to the hospital today."
After saying this, Nie Zheng felt extremely regretful. She sat on the sofa and looked at the bowl of soup that Chong Jianzhi had placed on the coffee table. She didn't drink much of it, and the soup had already gone cold.
"Xiao Zheng, if you have anything to say, just talk to me nicely. The young master is not unreasonable, he just cares about you too much."
Nie Zheng knew it clearly and thought that Chong Jianzhi must be feeling uncomfortable right now, so she no longer cared about her face. She trotted to the kitchen, scooped a bowl of boiling hot soup from the pot, and went upstairs with the soup.
When Nie Zheng had walked halfway through the distance, she received a message from Chong Jianzhi.
No long words, just two words: stomachache.
Well, he gave in.
Chong Jianzhi used these two words to save face. He never showed weakness, so he had to find some excuses to make the other party feel sorry for him.
Just after sending the message, Nie Zheng knocked on the door.
Chong Jianzhi was originally standing, but when he heard the knock on the door, he immediately took off his slippers and lay down on the bed, leaning against the head of the bed, with the quilt covering his chest, looking pitiful.
"Come in."
As soon as Nie Zheng came in, she saw Chong Jianzhi leaning against the head of the bed, his hands pressed tightly on his stomach, looking like he was enduring pain.
This made her feel very sad. She quickly took the soup to the bedside and sat down. She apologized as soon as she opened her mouth: "I'm sorry, brother. I lied to you today, but Qiao Li and I are just friends. There's really nothing else."
Chong Jianzhi pondered how to reply, but finally nodded: "I understand, you can see Qiao Li in the future, but don't lie to me, okay?"
Nie Zheng nodded hurriedly, thinking that the other party had already given her a way out, so she naturally couldn't be awkward anymore.
"I saw that you didn't even touch your soup, so I brought you another bowl."
Chong Jianzhi looked at the bowl of soup in front of him but didn't take it. Nie Zheng understood and scooped a spoonful of soup with a spoon and fed it to her brother's mouth.
It was really disgusting. Chong Jianzhi was happy as he drank the soup, but he felt that he was becoming less and less like himself. He became extremely hypocritical.
The two of them reconciled, and Nie Zheng felt relieved and started to think about business again.
Regarding Old Man Chen Hua, Nie Zheng collected some more information during the day and asked his subordinates to buy some incense for Old Man Chen Hua.
"You can tell a person by his scent. Just like Liu Feng, whom I met at the Fragrance Expo, his scent is complex and has an exaggerated fragrance, which shows that he is not a noble person. Elder Chen Hua's scent is light and distant, and you can tell at a glance that the person who made the scent is not interested in fame and fortune. Elder Chen Hua has retired in recent years, and many companies must have approached him, but he has not come out. There is probably some hidden reason. It must be very difficult for us to hire him."
Chong Jianzhi nodded: "This time I want to talk to his grandson first. Old man Chen Hua lives with his grandson now, and his grandson should have a say in many decisions."
Nie Zheng fell into deep thought and felt that Chong Jianzhi's idea was not wrong, but he was solving the problem according to the usual way of thinking of a businessman. Facing old man Chen Hua, this method might not work.
They had no choice but to give it a try, so they immediately booked plane tickets and prepared to go to Bei'an.
Chong Jianzhi had already asked Richard to contact Mr. Chen Hua's grandson in advance. The other party did not object to the visit and readily told them the specific address of Mr. Chen Hua's current residence.
At least the beginning is good.
Chong Jianzhi originally bought tickets only for himself and Nie Zheng, and did not plan to bring Richard along. He had just gifted the other party shares a few days ago, and there were still many things to be dealt with in the handover of overseas companies. Chong Jianzhi wanted Richard to concentrate on finishing this matter and put other things aside for the time being.
But when Richard heard that they were going to Bei'an, he immediately lost his composure and insisted on buying a ticket and going with them.
Mingli said that as a special assistant, he should accompany the boss on business trips, but Nie Zheng had already seen that Richard did it for Bian Xiaoyue.
Bian Xiaoyue joined the crew to film, and went straight into the mountains of Bei'an. She was gone for half a month without any news. Since that meal, Bian Xiaoyue seemed to have really given up on Richard. In the past, even in the UK, when they were in different places, Bian Xiaoyue would always contact Richard, but this time they really lost contact.
Maybe this is how people are. When they realize they are about to lose something, they become anxious and afraid.
Before going to Bei'an, Chong Jianzhi called Bian Xiaoyue, who picked up the phone quickly. Chong Jianzhi told her the news and also specifically mentioned that Richard would go with them.
When Bian Xiaoyue heard the news, she was not very happy. She just said "OK" in a faint tone.
Richard looked nervous. After Chong Jianzhi hung up the phone, he thought for a long time before asking, "What did she say?"
"Nothing said."
Nie Zheng sighed in her heart. What Chong Jianzhi said was not wrong. Bian Xiaoyue did not say anything. Seeing Richard's visibly disappointed expression, Nie Zheng felt that Chong Jianzhi might as well not make the call.
The plane took off and needed to get off the plane for a stopover. Richard walked over to Chong Jianzhi and Nie Zheng and asked after a long pause, "Mr. Chong, why did Bian Xiaoyue answer the phone immediately when you called her, but when I called her it kept saying the user was busy?"
"Is there a possibility..." Nie Zheng only hated Richard for being a blockhead, "She blocked you."
Richard was a little dumbfounded. He scratched his head and said to himself, "Really?"
"Don't think about it. Wait until you go over and ask her in person."
……
The few people landed on the plane. They had originally agreed that Bian Xiaoyue's crew would come to pick them up today because they were on holiday, but there was no sign of her for a long time. After Chong Jianzhi turned off the flight mode, he found that Bian Xiaoyue had sent him a message saying that the crew's schedule had been temporarily adjusted and they had to reshoot a scene, so they really didn't have time to come, so they asked them to go directly to Mr. Chen Hua's house.
Richard had originally thought that he would be able to meet her, and he had even thought about how to say hello to her thousands of times in his mind. But in the end, he didn't meet her, and he was so disappointed that he didn't say a word on the way.
After nearly three hours of traveling, they finally arrived at the village where old man Chen Hua lived. His grandson Chen Yixue was waiting at the entrance of the village. After recognizing the license plate number of the group, he came up to greet them enthusiastically.
Nie Zheng was still the same. She would feel drowsy whenever she took such a long-distance bus. After the bus stopped, Chong Jianzhi woke her up. She wiped her mouth in a daze and got off the bus half leaning on Chong Jianzhi.
There were no street lights in the village and the flashlights were dim. Chong Jianzhi had been holding Nie Zheng and his attention was all on her. He didn't notice the shallow puddle in front of him and almost slipped.
Chen Yixue took the three of them to the dining place. It was already evening when they finally got out into the light. Chen Yixue discovered that Chong Jianzhi's clothes were dirty because he was splashed by the puddles just now. Seeing that the other person's coat was quite expensive, she couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
"I'm so sorry. If I had known, I would have brought a bigger flashlight."
Unexpectedly, Chong Jianzhi waved his hands and said calmly, "I wasn't splashed."
