Chapter 76: Jealous

“Madam?” Ah Xiang saw that Bei Qingqing was rooted to the spot, so she called out softly.

“Ah, it’s nothing. Then I’ll go up and rest for a while,” Bei Qingqing said slowly.

Bei Qingqing did not know how she got back into the room. She only felt that her entire mind was in a mess.

She did not think that Chen Jiazhi would go out with Lu Yao alone.

In the past, Bei Qingqing never cared about Lu Yao’s existence because she never thought that Lu Yao would really be together with Chen Jiazhi.

That was why she did not care about Chen Jiazhi and Lu Yao’s relationship. Nor did she care that Lu Yao had feelings for Chen Jiazhi.

However, now, she could not act as if nothing had happened. After all, she and Chen Jiazhi were husband and wife, and she had truly given her heart to Chen Jiazhi.

So when she heard the news, Bei Qingqing felt a wave of sadness and bitterness in her heart. She lay on the bed and began to wait for Chen Jiazhi’s return.

Time passed by minute by minute. Bei Qingqing had never thought that time would pass so slowly. It was as if one minute had turned into two minutes.

She waited until night, but Chen Jiazhi still had not returned. Bei Qingqing’s heart sank bit by bit. At that moment, she was not sleepy at all. She lay on the bed but could not close her eyes.

Finally, she heard the sound of Chen Jiazhi going upstairs. Bei Qingqing quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

She hoped that Chen Jiazhi could explain what he did and why he came back so late.

However, after Chen Jiazhi came back, he quietly went to take a shower and then lay on the bed.

Bei Qingqing’s heart was very bitter. She tried hard not to show her sadness.

Chen Jiazhi lay next to her. Looking at Bei Qingqing’s blinking eyelashes, Chen Jiazhi leaned over and kissed Bei Qingqing’s cheek.

Bei Qingqing slowly opened her eyes, hoping to get Chen Jiazhi’s explanation at this time. She did not expect Chen Jiazhi to explain in detail, but at least she wanted him to tell her where he went.

However, Chen Jiazhi still did not say anything. He just wanted to ask for a kiss. Bei Qingqing immediately dodged.

Bei Qingqing gently pushed Chen Jiazhi away, stared into his eyes, and slowly asked, “Where did you go today? Why are you only back now?”

Chen Jiazhi was stunned for a moment, then did not answer.

Bei Qingqing was extremely disappointed in the silence between the two of them. She gently turned around and said, “I’m tired. I’m going to sleep first.”

Bei Qingqing gently pulled the blanket over her and covered herself.

She began to suspect that Chen Jiazhi did not like her at all, but liked Lu Yao instead.

She was just a substitute, how could he have feelings for her? The passion of the past few days might just be the heat of the moment. Bei Qingqing thought that when the passion faded, Chen Jiazhi would definitely choose Lu Yao, who was multi-talented and matched with his family background.

On the other side, when Chen Jiazhi saw Bei Qingqing’s attitude, his heart also dimmed.

He silently turned around, thinking whether this kind of life was what Bei Qingqing wanted. After all, Bei Qingqing did not want to marry into the Chen Family back then.

In other words, Bei Qingqing did not like him at all. At that time, she only married him because she had no choice. Chen Jiazhi thought of the way Bei Qingqing and Gu Yunhai talked and laughed today, and he felt a little bitter in his heart.

Perhaps a man like Gu Yunhai was the type that Bei Qingqing really liked.

The two of them held their own thoughts, and the air in the room became colder.
