The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

Chapter 71 Zheng Zheng, You Don’t Have to Feel Psychologically Burdened

"...How did you deal with the matter between you and her?" Nie Zheng regretted asking, "If it's inconvenient, don't tell me."

"It's not inconvenient. She was in a divorce lawsuit with Shanda's Tan Xiao. She asked for 200 million yuan. She thought she was smart, but she was actually stupid. In the end, Tan Xiao had someone tie her up and almost threw her into the high seas to feed sharks. I found someone to rescue her."

"Is he okay now?"

"It's nothing. He just gets crazy intermittently. He wants to reconcile with me."

Qiao Li started the car and watched Nie Zheng's expression through the rearview mirror, trying to see some of the emotions he wanted to see on her face.

"Then what do you think?"

The setting sun was a bit dazzling. Qiao Li pulled down the sunshade above Nie Zheng's head while waiting for the red light. He said indifferently, "What can I think? This is not a shelter. Can she come here whenever she wants?"

"Um……"

"I originally thought I still had some feelings for her, but after seeing her, I touched my chest and I didn't feel any excitement at all. All that was left was that I felt sorry for her. Who in the industry doesn't know about the disgusting habits of Tan Xiao from Shanda? She has suffered a lot in the past few years, and I know it all. I think it's true that I'm not willing to bear it, but it's impossible for me to continue to be with her. I don't love her anymore."

Qiao Li drove the car into the underground garage of a shopping mall in the downtown commercial district. The surroundings gradually darkened, and the two of them did not speak to each other in the car. The darkness lasted for about a few dozen seconds, no more. Qiao Li's hand, which was originally holding the steering wheel, suddenly reached down in the darkness. He opened his palm and held Nie Zheng's hand.

When she was held, her heart suddenly trembled. In the few seconds when she struggled to break free, what flashed through her mind were the four years that Qiao Li and she had spent together.

Qiao Li is a very good man, one in a million. If you put him in a crowd, he is the kind of man you would fall in love with at first sight. Even if Nie Zheng didn't, after four years of living together, it's been such a long time, so there must be some feelings from the heart.

Nie Zheng's heart was in a mess, with the words "love grows over time" circling in her mind, but after a few seconds, she subconsciously broke free from Qiao Li's hand.

After darkness, the car drove into the underground garage. As if nothing had happened, Qiao Li put his hands on the steering wheel again. He stopped the car, turned to Nie Zheng and said with a smile: "I found a delicious dry pot restaurant. I'll take you to eat bullfrog."

During the meal, he saw that she was worried and thought that his actions were too abrupt and caused her to feel burdened. He apologized naturally, "I was too anxious, Zhengzheng, you don't have to feel burdened."

"No, I'm just in a bad mood. It has nothing to do with you."

As soon as Nie Zheng said this, he felt something was wrong.

In the past, he could feel that Nie Zheng was a person who was particularly good at absorbing emotions. She almost never complained to others, and rarely confided her negative emotions to others. After suppressing them for a long time, endurance seemed to have become a habit.

In a situation like today, it goes without saying that she must have encountered some great difficulties.

"What's going on? Tell me about it."

Nie Zheng lowered her head and thought for a long time. She wanted to talk to Qiao Li, but she didn't know where to start. She was not good at expressing grievances. After holding it in for a long time, she only said to Qiao Li: "Some things about work."

"You don't want to tell me?"

"No, it's not a big deal. I can handle it myself."

Qiao Li picked up some food for Nie Zheng and half-jokingly said, "If you're not happy in Zhengyue, why don't you come to Lixing? You know Lixing also has incense shops. You can do what you want without having to deal with Chong Jianzhi, the difficult boss."

Staring at the food Qiao Li picked for her, she somehow felt she had no appetite. She put down her chopsticks and inexplicably thought of Chong Jianzhi. When she thought of him, her heart felt sour and swollen.

"I'm doing fine in Zhengyue. If I'm really wronged, I'll tell you."

Qiao Li agreed, but he didn't believe it at all. He picked up his phone and contacted his assistant, asking him to check what happened to Zheng Yue recently and what happened to Nie Zheng's department.

After dinner, Qiao Li asked Nie Zheng to accompany him to the mall. There was no reason to refuse, but her promise was interrupted by the vibrating phone call.

It was Richard. When she picked up the phone, the first thing the other party asked was where she was.

"I'm eating out, what's going on?"

Richard started with a few pleasantries: "Did the monitoring go smoothly today? Have you solved your problem?"

Nie Zheng's expression froze, but she pretended to be cheerful: "Of course it's solved."

"Miss Nie Zheng, when will you be back? It's the rainy season now and the weather is bad. Please come back as soon as possible after dinner."

This concern was indeed a bit inexplicable. Nie Zheng was puzzled, but still responded: "I will be back soon, you don't have to worry."

"Zheng Zheng, what do you think of this skirt? Do you like it?"

At this time, Qiao Li was holding a white dress and gesturing to her: "I think this dress suits you very well."

After just two words, Qiao Li's voice was transmitted through the phone. Richard immediately turned off the hands-free function of the phone. He looked back at Chong Jianzhi, who was sitting at the table with his arms folded and silent, and realized that Nie Zheng was in trouble again.

After hanging up the phone, Richard secretly observed Chong Jianzhi's expression and spoke at the right time: "Mr. Chong, Miss Nie Zheng just went out to have a meal, actually-"

"You go out first."

The calmness that Chong Jianzhi tried so hard to maintain was completely broken the moment Richard left the room. He clenched his fists tightly, and his nails left bloody marks on his palms. The pain came over him, and the more obvious the pain was, the more powerless he felt.

"Nie Zheng, what should I do with you?"

Qiao Li originally wanted to hang out with Nie Zheng for a while longer, but she became distracted after receiving the phone call. Qiao Li didn't want to embarrass her, so he decided to send her home first.

While in the car, Richard called again, asking about the lost files on Nie Zheng's computer.

"Is the matter resolved?"

Nie Zheng didn't want Richard to make any more noise. The rumors about her had already spread all over the forum. If Richard got involved again, it would only make it more and more difficult for her to gain a foothold in the department.

"solved."

Richard didn't quite believe it and continued to ask, "How did you solve it?"

"He apologized to me. It's no big deal, forget it."

Richard didn't say anything else. He just told her to go home quickly and hung up the phone.

Qiao Li, who had been driving beside her, knew from the fragments of conversation that the other party must have been wronged in the office. He did not continue to ask, but said after she hung up the phone: "If you are being bullied, tell me, I can help you solve it."

"Okay." She kept looking out the window, seeming a little absent-minded.

After returning home, Nie Zheng found that Chong Jianzhi's computer was placed in the living room, but he was not there. She changed her shoes and instinctively walked towards Chong Jianzhi's computer.
