The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

"After we get married, we two old guys will retire. Chongshi and Lixing will have to rely on you young people to continue to make a difference."

"Grandpa, you are still young. It's too early to talk about retirement."

Qiao Xing and Qiao Zhenting sang in unison and laughed from ear to ear.

The calmest person at the table was Chong Jianzhi. He seemed to be out of the loop. When Qiao Xing was joking with the two old men, he kept his head down playing with his phone. Richard was afraid that he would be bored, so he shared a webpage with him. Click to input photos, and AI will change faces and make a photo album.

Chong Jianzhi was indeed too bored, so he actually clicked on the webpage to do some research.

Following the instructions to input the photo, Chong Jianzhi successfully replaced his and Nie Zheng's faces with those of a celebrity couple. The program was not perfect and still had some flaws, and anyone could tell that it was photoshopped, but Chong Jianzhi found it interesting and never tired of replacing his and Nie Zheng's faces in photos and videos.

"Jianzhi, what are you doing? Why are you always looking at your phone?"

"Work." Chong Jianzhi still didn't look up.

"What kind of work is so important? Why are you so rude, kid?"

"A 500 million dollar business."

Chong Jianzhi still didn't look up, and when the people present heard that Chong Jianzhi was busy with a business worth 500 million yuan, they all fell silent tacitly.

Soon he had collected twenty photos, and Chong Jianzhi even subscribed to membership, which enabled him to generate an album with one click, download it, and save it in his mobile phone album.

Looking at the poor quality and distorted photos, Chong Jianzhi felt something in his heart and couldn't help laughing.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, some people thought that the business deal was going well, so the scene became lively again.

"This weekend is Jianzhi's birthday, in Roman's Purple Gold Hall, Old Joe, you must come."

Every year, Chong Jianzhi holds a birthday party, which is a rare high-profile occasion for him who has always been low-key. The purpose is not to celebrate his birthday, but to continue to maintain relationships with potential partners and expand business cooperation.

"Of course, of course. It's my grandson-in-law's birthday, so of course I have to go!"

“Grandpa Qiao, I have no plans to get engaged to Qiao Xing at the moment.”

Seeing the right opportunity, he made his position clear. After all, this was the purpose of returning to the old house today. He wanted to let these people know that their marriage was not something that could be controlled at will by others.

"How do you talk, kid?"

"be honest."

After saying this, Chong Jianzhi glanced at his watch, feeling that he had given these people enough face, so he stopped sitting there and wasting time, and took the opportunity to leave, making the excuse that he had something to do at the company.

Richard had already parked the car outside the old house, and Chong Jianzhi got in the car as soon as he went out. In the car, Chong Jianzhi was still fiddling with the small program on his phone, watching the synthesized intimate video with Nie Zheng, he seemed to have gained some kind of compensatory comfort, as if he was really in the video.

When they got home, Lou Fan was playing Landlord with Wang Ma and Nie Zheng. When they saw Chong Jianzhi coming back, they both threw all the playing cards in their hands on the coffee table, as if they wanted to distance themselves from the playing cards.

"It's like the devil has come. Lao Chong, please reflect on yourself. Why can't I play poker after you come back?"

Chong Jianzhi ignored Lou Fan. He kept his eyes on Nie Zheng. When he saw that the other person's expression became obviously more restrained when looking at him, he felt a little hurt.

The two of them have lived together for so many years, but they are still not as good as Lou Fan, a stranger they just met not long ago.

"Hey, Lao Chong, I saw a report in the news that you and Miss Qiao are getting married soon? Why are you keeping it a secret and not even telling me?"

"fake."

After saying this, Chong Jianzhi went upstairs without looking back.

This false sentence actually made Nie Zheng breathe a sigh of relief. The faint and inaudible sigh of relief was actually caught by Lou Fan, who had sharp eyes.

"Are you unhappy that your brother is getting engaged?"

"No."

Nie Zheng was still being stubborn. She thought she could hide her feelings completely, but no matter how deeply she hid them, she still couldn't suppress the feeling of loss that was emanating from her heart.

Lou Fan saw through it at a glance, but didn't say anything. He didn't understand where the ambiguity between the two of them came from. They were obviously brother and sister, but there was a twisted ambiguous atmosphere between them.

Such a relationship is dangerous.

But the more dangerous it is, the more exciting it is.

These days, Chong Jianzhi took Nie Zheng to work. She had nothing to do, so she sat on the sofa and continued to build a box of Lego. Chong Jianzhi was very busy and barely stayed in the office all morning. It was almost noon, and Nie Zheng was still in the office waiting for the busy man to come back and take her to lunch, when an uninvited guest suddenly opened the door.

It’s Qiao Xing.

When the two met, they were both a little surprised to see each other in Chong Jianzhi's office.

"Why are you here?"

She didn't like Qiao Xing's arrogant attitude, so she replied bluntly: "You should ask my brother, not me."

"I do plan on asking your brother. Having Richard in the office is noisy enough."

Nie Zheng didn't say anything and continued to concentrate on building Lego. Qiao Xing didn't leave either, and waited until Chong Jianzhi finished his work and returned to the office, holding the lunch he bought for them.

"Jianzhi, why did you come back just now? I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"what's up?"

"Grandpa made two dresses for me to wear at your birthday party. Can you help me see which one looks better?"

"Whatever you want."

Chong Jianzhi was still very indifferent, but his hands kept moving. He took out the lunch from the plastic bag and box, and did not forget to sharpen the disposable chopsticks in front of Nie Zheng. Because Nie Zheng did not have this habit, she had once scratched her lips with the wooden thorns on the disposable chopsticks.

"I want you to help me make a decision."

The lunch box was opened, and Chong Jianzhi pushed the food to Nie Zheng: "Eat quickly." Then he said, "I sent someone to make two dresses for you. Try them on and see which one you like."

Nie Zheng almost thought that he did it on purpose. Talking to her like this in front of Qiao Xing, and talking about the dress, wouldn't Qiao Xing be pissed to death?

"Any one is fine." Her tone was gloomy, in stark contrast to Qiao Xing's eagerness, "I won't try it."

"Jianzhi!" Qiao Xing's voice was already filled with obvious anger.

"Anything will do."

When had a rich girl like Qiao Xing ever suffered such an injustice? Facing Chong Jianzhi's cold attitude, she stopped trying to please him and turned away. When she passed by Nie Zheng's pile of Lego, she pretended to stretch her legs and kicked down the half-finished model.

The Legos were scattered all over the place, and the parts that had been assembled had become broken pieces and were in disarray.

Looking at the mess in front of her, Nie Zheng frowned slightly and didn't react for a moment until Chong Jianzhi beside her tapped the lunch box lightly with chopsticks, and she came back to her senses.

"I'll have Richard put it back together for you this afternoon."

Seeing Chong Jianzhi's indifferent look, she felt a little suffocated in her chest again.

She realized that she had unrealistic expectations of Chong Jianzhi, and he would never be able to fulfill those expectations. All he could do was to weigh the pros and cons and let Richard clean up the mess that his fiancée asked him to leave behind.

Those expectations will eventually be dashed, and all Chong Jianzhi can give her is just one mirage after another.
