Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2241: Chapter 45: If You Can’t Bear It…

Qin Qingqing’s topic jumps too quickly.

Tang Jinchen, sitting beside her, couldn’t understand what she meant, and looked at her with a confused and puzzled expression.

What does it have to do with the Shi Family?

He stared at Qin Qingqing, meaning for her to explain.

But Qin Qingqing only glanced at him indifferently, not intending to explain.

Instead, she bit her lip and gripped her phone tighter, listening to the faint breathing of the man on the other end.

“No.”

Mo Ziye understood the meaning in her words.

After a slight hesitation, he calmly denied it.

He didn’t want Qin Qingqing to know certain things.

Given her temperament, knowing too much wouldn’t be good.

“I understand.”

Qin Qingqing ignored the disappointment in her heart and the feeling like something was blocking her.

Her voice softened a bit, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.”

“Alright, good night.”

“Good night.”

“Qingqing, what did you mean by what you asked Mo Ziye just now?”

As soon as she hung up the phone, Tang Jinchen asked with concern.

Although he didn’t understand, he clearly felt that Qingqing’s mood had plummeted because of that sentence.

“What do you mean?”

Qin Qingqing feigned ignorance and asked back.

Causing Tang Jinchen to be slightly displeased, “Qingqing, are you treating me like an outsider, what kind of riddle were you speaking with Mo Ziye just now?”

The snacks in her hand were snatched away by Tang Jinchen.

Qin Qingqing’s eyes slightly changed, “Alright, I’ll tell you.”

Her brows knit lightly as she spoke, “A few days ago, Aunt Wen told me that Brother Ziyi has been investigating the person who caused my mother’s death all these years, also saying that last time when he accompanied Shi Xi back to the Imperial City, part of the reason was because Uncle Qingyang had found some clues…”

“So, your point was to ask if Mo Ziye being with Shi Xi is because of suspicion that the mastermind behind the death back then is the Shi Family?”

Tang Jinchen straightened his expression and looked at her seriously.

At the same time, he returned the snacks to her.

Qin Qingqing took them, but did not continue eating, instead tightly pinching the bag, “I don’t know, I’ve been abroad for years, neither my father nor grandpas told me anything, nor did they let me interfere…”

“Qingqing, Aunt’s revenge will definitely be carried out, you shouldn’t overthink it. Mo Ziye dating Shi Xi has nothing to do with the Shi Family. He just fell for another woman after breaking up with you.”

Tang Jinchen said with a trace of discontent flashing in his eyes.

“It’s late, you shouldn’t eat anymore, go to sleep.”

Qin Qingqing was not interested in the topic of Mo Ziye liking another woman, she stood up from the sofa and walked toward the stairs.

Behind her, Tang Jinchen watched her back for two seconds before catching up, going upstairs with her, “Qingqing, come back with us to the Imperial City tomorrow, living here all alone is so lonely, it’s much more lively in the Imperial City.”

“I have to work.”

“If you want to work, you can work in the Imperial City too, your grandparents aren’t in good health, don’t you want to go back and accompany them?”

“I will, I definitely will visit often.” Qin Qingqing said with a light smile.

“I meant going to the Imperial City and not coming back to G City, not like now, going back for a few days and then returning.”

“Cousin, I will go back.”

Qin Qingqing suddenly curbed her smile and said softly, “I’m considering this issue, maybe one day I’ll return to the Imperial City and never leave, then you, the local overlord of the Imperial City, must look after me.”

“Protect you? Even if I can’t, isn’t there Ah Zhan? With the current capabilities of the Ye Family, if he’s looking after you, how would that Shi Xi dare to be arrogant in front of you.”

Speaking of which, the Shi Family has risen rapidly in recent years.

Much of it is because Old Man An and Old Man Qin stepped down, allowing Shi Family members to rise up.

Yet even so, they can’t compare to the foundation of the Ye Family.

Qin Qingqing said with amusement, “Even without Ye Zhan looking after me, Shi Xi wouldn’t dare be arrogant in front of me, I’m not a pushover.”

“Really? Then how did she manage to bully you even at the company?”

Tang Jinchen shook his head as he spoke.

Qin Qingqing scoffed, her tone mocking, “She went looking for trouble, at my office, she didn’t gain any advantage, tomorrow she’ll have to come and apologize, cousin, if you didn’t have to leave tomorrow, I’d let you see how Shi Xi apologizes to me.”

“Ah Zhan and I have an eight o’clock flight, you can make Shi Xi come to your house to apologize at six.”

Tang Jinchen’s eyes flashed with a dark gleam, his lips curling up into a joyful arc.

“Do you really want to see?”

“Of course, I do.”

Upon reaching the second floor, Tang Jinchen stopped climbing to the third and rested a hand on the railing, smiling charmingly at Qin Qingqing.

Afraid she wouldn’t agree, he added, “Originally I wanted to help you get revenge, but Ah Zhan said since Shi Xi didn’t gain anything, and this is G City, it’s best to wait until back in the Imperial City where there are plenty of chances… But now that she’s bringing herself to you, brother doesn’t usually hit women, but scolding her a bit for your sake is possible.”

“Alright.”

Qin Qingqing hesitated for just a second.

A brilliant smile blossomed across her delicate brows, as she pulled out her phone to call Mo Ziye.

Shi Xi provoked her first, and now volunteers to come over.

She certainly had no reason to show mercy.

Seeing her dial Mo Ziye’s number, Tang Jinchen raised his brow. Qin Qingqing, spoiled by Mo Ziye for eighteen years, had absorbed part of his personality, both arrogant and unwilling to suffer losses.

When the call connected, Mo Ziye’s low voice came through, “Qingqing, is there anything else?”

Qin Qingqing glanced at Tang Jinchen who was watching her, and said cheerfully, “Brother Ziyi, let Shi Xi know that if she wants to apologize to me, she should come to my house at six tomorrow morning.”

“Qingqing, so early, won’t you sleep in?”

Mo Ziye’s voice carried a hint of surprise.

As he continued, his tone took on a faint amusement and a hint of imperceptible indulgence.

He hadn’t intended to make Shi Xi come over so early to apologize.

Qin Qingqing replied nonchalantly, “I won’t sleep in, I’m suddenly very interested in how Shi Xi will apologize to me, Brother Ziyi, if you’re reluctant for her to come early, you can pretend I never said it.”

“There’s no reluctance, I’ll tell her in a bit, to be ready to come over at six tomorrow morning to apologize to you, sleep well, so you won’t wake up tomorrow with dark circles and end up being laughed at.”

Hearing Mo Ziye’s tone suddenly cool, Qin Qingqing’s smile became even more radiant, with his indifference, she cheerfully wished him good night, then hung up.
