The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

Chapter 297 If you can't stand it...

"I have nothing to explain."

Nie Zheng was not good at acting, and her deliberately pretended indifference was actually very poor. Her hands, hidden in her sleeves, were trembling slightly.

But Chong gradually realized that he was overwhelmed by anger and was unable to calmly deal with everything in front of him.

"Nie Zheng, I'll give you one more chance to explain it to me."

"I've already said it. There's nothing to explain." She tried her best to remain calm. "You have no right to restrict my freedom. Who I drink with and what time I go home are my own business. There's no need to explain to you."

"Do you know that he has other feelings for you?" Chong Jianzhi asked her, keeping his last bit of rationality.

"so what?"

Chong Jianzhi looked at her in shock, unable to understand how she could be so self-righteous.

In fact, what hurt him the most was her cold expression, as if his anger at the moment had nothing to do with her.

He reached out to grab something and touched a transparent crystal vase. He raised his hand and wanted to throw it to the ground. Even if he heard a noise, he would feel better.

The next second, she remembered that she had chosen the vase when they were shopping in a home furnishing store together last month. The transparent crystal wall had delicate patterns on it, and she loved it very much at that time.

Thinking of this, he suppressed his temper and put the vase down again.

I reached out and touched it again. It was her incense burner, her incense tube and the silver leaf stand... They were all her treasures, and I couldn't let any of them fall. She would definitely feel bad if I dropped them, and if I bought her another one, she wouldn't be used to it...

Chong Jianzhi felt that he was crazy. He just wanted to vent his anger, but he started to think about all kinds of things and became timid.

At this time, Zhizhi ran in through the crack in the door. It didn't know that the two were arguing, so it looked at him and then at her with its big curious eyes.

Chong Jianzhi finally touched something that felt good in his hand. It was the sheep doll that Nie Zheng had grabbed when she was playing with the claw machine.

This thing can't be broken, Chong Jianzhi evaluated in his mind. In fact, he had just spent half a day considering it, and the fire was almost over.

Nie Zheng was lying on the bed with her head down, keeping silent. Her nightgown was wrinkled from sleeping, her hair was messy, and she looked inexplicably... cute.

Chong Jianzhi thought she was cute, but he was also angry. This time, he was no longer angry at Nie Zheng, but at himself.

He clearly felt that he had changed, becoming indecisive and even a little fussy.

He grabbed the stuffed animal next to him and threw it to the ground.

He didn't use much force, but as luck would have it, Zhizhi happened to pass in front of him and the plush doll hit Zhizhi's tail.

"Meow meow!"

The kitten was frightened and jumped directly onto the bed with its fur standing up.

Nie Zheng was also startled, and hurriedly picked up the kitten and rubbed its back.

"I……"

"Meow meow……"

The pitiful squeaking sounds continued to be heard, and Chong Jianzhi suddenly felt a little at a loss. He looked at the man and the cat opposite him, then looked at the doll on the ground, and stood there in a daze.

"You can get angry with me, but can you not take it out on the cat?" Nie Zheng looked at her brother and added, "Why do you always involve innocent people and things?"

She said the second half of the sentence on purpose in order to anger her brother and make the argument get out of control. Perhaps in such a situation, she would be able to say the word "break up" naturally.

"Nie Zheng, you are being unreasonable with me."

Chong Jianzhi spoke in a low voice. The atmosphere between them had reached a freezing point. A quarrel was about to break out. Even if he had a good temper, he couldn't stand her deliberately targeting him like this.

"Innocent people and things are implicated." She clearly pointed out that it was Fan Minzhe. She was actually defending him. Those old things were brought up again, and she had not forgotten them.

"That's just how I am. If you can't stand it, let's break up."

She uttered these words with difficulty, her tone was very stiff, and the baby in her arms meowed twice in response.

Chong Jianzhi felt that everything was a mess. It was just a simple quarrel, so why did it escalate to the point of breaking up?

"Say it again."

Nie Zheng gritted her teeth and repeated, "If you can't stand it, let's break up."

Chong Jianzhi felt a breath stuck in her throat. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood. Her back teeth were about to break. The hurtful words she wanted to say were finally swallowed back into her stomach.

He knows very well that one should learn to be silent when one is not calm.

So, before the conflict got out of control, he left the room.

Aunt Wang downstairs heard the noise, looked out worriedly, saw him coming down, and hurriedly asked the two what happened?

Chong Jianzhi was filled with rage and grievance. He didn't understand what he had done wrong and why she treated him so coldly.

Wang Ma silently poured him a cup of tea: "It's like this when two people are together. They need to keep getting used to each other in order to have a deeper understanding."

Chong Jianzhi sighed deeply, and when she thought of the scene when Fan Minzhe sent her back last night, her eyes were filled with sadness.

On a weekday, the two went to work separately. When they arrived at the company, Chong Jianzhi wanted to take the initiative to talk, but Nie Zheng didn't give her the opportunity at all.

She left early in the afternoon. Today was the anniversary of her parents' death and she wanted to go see them.

More than ten years have passed, and her impression of her parents has become increasingly vague. Even if she looks at photos again, she can hardly remember them. The way they looked at that time, those originally vivid memories engraved in her mind, seem to have rusted.

She hated herself for being so forgetful. Although she was just a little girl under five years old at that time and it was normal for her memory to be vague, those memories were the only things her parents left behind.

The memories of her parents are becoming increasingly vague, but she remembers clearly every moment she spent with her adoptive parents.

It made her feel like a betrayer.

Can people really let go of everything and start over?

She looked at her father and mother's tombstones and asked herself silently in her heart.

Unfortunately, no one could answer her question. Suddenly, it started to rain. She looked up at the sky and knew the answer.

When she returned home, Chong Jianzhi was actually sitting in the living room. When he saw her come in, he stood up from the sofa.

"Nie Zheng, I'm sorry."

The apology caught her off guard. The quarrel that broke out last night was still vivid in her mind. Chong gradually realized that he had done nothing wrong and he shouldn't have apologized.

Nie Zheng didn't dare to look into his eyes. If their eyes met, she was afraid that she would become weak, like a deserter who had abandoned his weapons and armor.

"I can."

He said this without any context, she didn't understand what he meant and was a little confused.

"what are you saying?"

Chong Jianzhi walked up to her and wiped the rain off her face.

"You said last night that if you couldn't stand it..." He omitted the second half of the sentence, "I've thought about this problem seriously. I can stand it."

She remained silent, her hands trembling slightly.

"A lot of things happened during this period. Today is Uncle Tang and Aunt Nie's... memorial day. I was so busy that I forgot about it. You must be very sad. It was my fault for not noticing your emotions."

"..."

"If drinking makes you happy, you have absolute freedom. But I hope that when you want to drink, you can tell me and let me accompany you, okay?"

His tone was so gentle, as if he was comforting a grumpy little girl.
