The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

If there was no surveillance video, Chong Jianzhi would never have thought that it was Qiao Li. He and Nie Zheng had only met a few times and had never even spoken to each other.

Qiao Li, like himself, is an out-and-out businessman who weighs the pros and cons before doing anything. How could he help Nie Zheng escape for no reason?

Without time to think further, Chong Jianzhi quickly asked the driver to drive the car to the bottom of Lixing Building.

At this moment, Nie Zheng had already gotten into Qiao Li's car and arrived at a private residence that the other party had purchased in Anlan Yayuan.

This property is located in a remote area, and he originally wanted to settle a woman there. Since the woman left, Qiao Li has rarely come to the house again.

"You can stay here first. After the temporary ID card is processed, I will have someone take you to Zhanzhou."

"No need, I can buy the ticket myself, and Mr. Jian will pick me up at the station." Nie Zheng declined politely, fearing to cause unnecessary trouble to Qiao Li.

"Nie Zheng, I advise you to honestly admit your mistake to Chong Jianzhi. You have fled to Zhanzhou now. Even with the help of your Mr. Jian, do you think Chong Jianzhi will allow you to register and enroll smoothly?"

"…He won't listen. I'm at my wits' end."

Nie Zheng was hit in the sore spot by Qiao Li. He was right. It was only a matter of time before Chong Jianzhi found her. With Chong Jianzhi's personality, he would never let her out of his sight and go to school in Zhanzhou.

"Okay, now I just hope Chong Jianzhi won't let the fire fall on me." Qiao Li shook his head, looking helpless, "Otherwise, I will be at a great loss."

"No, you are Miss Qiao's brother. He won't do anything to you."

"Are you stupid? Do you really think my unfortunate sister has such a high profile?"

"Isn't it?"

There was a hint of frustration in Nie Zheng's tone, which she didn't even notice, but was caught by Qiao Li.

"I'm leaving now. You should get some sleep. You didn't get much sleep last night."

"That..." Nie Zheng pointed at Qiao Li's scabbed arm, "This is the scratch from my coal ball... Just now when you were driving, I saw that the wound accidentally opened again. How about I help you disinfect and bandage it?"

Qiao Li had almost taken a step forward, but when he saw Nie Zheng's childish face and those eyes... which were 70% similar to hers, he turned around and sat back on the sofa.

"Remember not to get water on your wound."

Nie Zheng pushed the dazed Qiao Li. She always felt that there was something wrong with the way he looked at her, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Okay, I got it. Stop talking nonsense." Qiao Li woke up as if from a dream, a little annoyed that he had seen another person through Nie Zheng's face just now. "I'm leaving first."

Just as they were about to part, Qiao Li's cell phone rang. The vibration was particularly harsh in the empty room, and Nie Zheng seemed to sense it, and her heart suddenly tightened.

It turned out to be Chong Jianzhi who called.

When answering the phone, Qiao Li mouthed "Don't be afraid" to Nie Zheng.

"Boss Chong, are you back from your business trip? How come you have time to call me?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds.

"Qiao Li, where are my people?"

Qiao Li laughed dryly twice: "I don't understand what Mr. Chong is talking about."

Hearing Qiao Li pretending to be confused, Chong Jianzhi lost his patience. He looked down at the watch on his wrist and said, "Two hours to send Nie Zheng back, or else—"

"otherwise?"

"I heard that the canary that Mr. Qiao had been keeping ran away with someone else. How about I send someone to catch her and skin her in front of Mr. Qiao? What do you think?"

Qiao Li's face changed. He never expected that Chong Jianzhi would use the woman who had betrayed him to threaten him.

"It doesn't matter. It's up to you."

Qiao Li hung up the phone. He was already distracted and his hand holding the phone was shaking slightly.

"what happened?"

"……fine."

Qiao Li felt like a poisonous snake whose weak spot was held by Chong Jianzhi. He was unwilling to be threatened by Chong Jianzhi like this, and the bargaining chip used to threaten him made Qiao Li feel even more humiliated. But at this critical moment, he had no choice but to... be controlled by him.

——Anlan Yayuan, come and pick someone up.

After sending the text message, Qiao Li's heart was already in a mess.

But Nie Zheng asked him stubbornly: "Mr. Qiao, why are you helping me?"

He didn't want to answer the question, so he pretended not to hear it and remained silent.

Did he help her? Qiao Li felt guilty. Not only did he not help her, he might have harmed her...

Not long after, the quiet atmosphere was broken by a rapid knock on the door.

Chong Jianzhi is here.

Nie Zheng suddenly became alert. Looking at Qiao Li's dazed and guilty expression, her heart sank to the bottom of the sea.

The door was kicked open.

The man's face was filled with rage that he could hardly contain. He passed Qiao Li, grabbed Nie Zheng's arm, and dragged her away with all his strength.

"I won't go back!" Nie Zheng refused to give up and started struggling using her hands and feet.

"Nie Zheng! Don't force me." Chong Jianzhi's eyes were red, and his whole body was shaking slightly because of anger. He had no time to care about the outsiders around him. He directly pinched her chin and warned, "Do you really think I dare not touch you?"

"Alright, alright, Mr. Chong, you——"

"I hope Mr. Qiao won't interfere in my family affairs." Chong Jianzhi glanced at Qiao Li with a warning look that was terrifying. "We'll settle our accounts later."

After saying that, Chong Jianzhi tightly grasped Nie Zheng's wrist and dragged her away from Qiao Li's house.

The door was slammed shut with a bang, and the world fell silent.

Seeing Nie Zheng being taken away, Qiao Li suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of guilt in his heart... When Nie Zheng returned, he would inevitably be tortured by Chong Jianzhi again. He looked down at his bandaged arm and was speechless for a long time.

Why did he help Nie Zheng? Qiao Li didn't want to admit it, nor did he dare to admit it.

Because Nie Zheng looks so much like that woman.

Chong Jianzhi found out that the canary in his mouth was someone else, the woman who betrayed him - Yao Ran.

Nie Zheng had a pair of eyes very similar to hers, and he noticed it the first time they met, so he couldn't help but approach her and pay attention to her silently.

Nie Zheng is not Yao Ran. Qiao Li knows that clearly, but he also feels sad for himself. Even though she is only somewhat similar to Yao Ran, Qiao Li cannot just leave Nie Zheng alone.

He was in too deep.

……

The sound of breaking glass broke the originally dull afternoon.

The room was in a mess. Nie Zheng huddled tightly in her chair, as if she was extremely afraid of the man in front of her. She didn't dare to say a word from beginning to end.

"Nie Zheng, do you think you will be better off without me?"

Chong Jianzhi's eyes were red, he was extremely angry, but his tone was still calm.

Too divisive.

Nie Zheng felt that Chong Jianzhi was too scary, because she was not sure whether the man still had his sanity at this moment. Perhaps he had already lost control of his anger and might pounce on her and bite her to death in the next second.

"answer me!"

"You keep saying you won't leave me... We are siblings, family members, but even so, you don't have to tie me to your side all the time and make me your puppet..."

And... do you really need me?
