Depressed wife runs with the ball

The phone rang and she walked to the room to look for her phone.

"I'll be back a little later. Yes, I still have some unfinished work." A male voice came, and Chu Yue was surprised to realize that he was still there.

"Why are you still here?" She stood at the door of the room, watching him hang up the phone, and asked in surprise. She closed the door silently.

"Waiting for you." Zhou Xingzhi put the book on the cabinet, sat up from the sofa, rubbed the bridge of his nose with his index finger and thumb, picked up the glasses on the bookshelf and put them on.

Chu Yue returned to her room and checked her phone. It was past five o'clock.

"Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat." Zhou Xingzhi stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen to get her something to eat.

"I'm not hungry, you... Actually, it's okay to wear this outfit home, right?" Chu Yue wanted to find his bag, but he felt that there was no need to dress too formally when he went home on such a weekend, and the color combination was not too outrageous.

"I want to talk to my dad about work. This outfit is too casual." Zhou Xingzhi looked at her flustered look and actually found it a little cute.

Chu Yue thought, he was from a wealthy family, and he had a brother and sister-in-law above him. Maybe there was some competition or some kind of family feud. "Let's go, maybe we can make it before 7 o'clock."

She carried her bag and changed her shoes at the entrance, urging him on. Take money from others and help them get rid of disasters.

Zhou Xingzhi calmly cleared the leftovers from the table and put them into a cooler bag. He looked up and saw her watch on the cabinet, so he gave it to her. He changed his shoes, put his slippers in the cabinet, closed the door, and said, "Let's go."

Chu Yue stretched her head to look into the house, then looked at the bag in his hand. She was not sure whether he had taken her slippers with him, so she did not dare to ask. After hesitating for a long time, she gave up.

When I went downstairs and saw the security guard, I gave him a resentful look.

It seemed like the first time Zhou Xingzhi saw her looking so lively and anxious. She was wearing a simple white T-shirt, school pants from a few years ago, sneakers that needed lacing, and a denim canvas bag on her back. She looked anxious and helpless, young and beautiful, like a student who had not yet graduated.

After getting in the car, fastening his seatbelt and starting the car, he said, "Let's go to my house. It's too far to go to the company now. I asked my aunt to prepare a meal for you. After you finish eating, I will ask the driver to take you back."

So there was a driver. "Isn't that inconvenient?" She was already uncomfortable going to someone else's house, let alone a man's. "I can take a taxi home after I choose the clothes. Besides, your aunt probably doesn't know what I like to eat."

"It's not inconvenient. There's only one cook at home, so I'll go back to the old house to eat. Take a look first, and if you don't like it, ask Auntie to cook it. Be obedient."

Chu Yue's eyes widened. "Be obedient? Uh...what the hell is this?"

"Your brother's name is Jin Yue? Is he studying at Harvard?" he asked about her family.

No one knew she had a younger brother, but he not only knew, but also knew which school he was in. This person, investigating herself? "How did you know?"

"Don't get me wrong, I checked it when I rescued you and needed to confirm your household registration information." He secretly glanced at her face out of the corner of his eye, and after listening to his explanation, his vigilance slowly subsided.

"Yes." She didn't want to talk more about her family, nor did she want to reveal more information, so she lowered her head to play with her phone.

"Did you rent that house?" Seeing that she was unwilling to talk more about her family, Zhou Xingzhi had to change the subject.

"I bought it." Chu Yue still looked down at his phone.

"The salary Ji Yan gave you is not low." He was thinking about what rank he should give her if Qucho was acquired.

"really."

"If, I mean if Xinghui acquires Qucho, do you think Ji Yan will agree?" He looked at her reaction through the rearview mirror.

Chu Yue smiled lightly, shook his head, and said: "Qucho has three partners, Uncle Jia might agree, but it is absolutely impossible for me and Ji Yan."

It turned out that she was also a partner. He hadn't had time to look at the information Jiang Tao had given him. Hearing her speak so confidently, the two of them standing on the same front, his heart inevitably felt sour, and his hands on the steering wheel couldn't help but tighten a little.

When they got home, the aunt handed Chu Yue a pair of women's slippers. She asked enthusiastically, "Mr. Zhou said Miss Chu has a light taste. I prepared a few side dishes and a fish. I wonder if it suits Miss's appetite."

Chu Yue bowed slightly and responded politely: "Thank you, Auntie."

Zhou Xingzhi turned to his aunt and said, "Auntie Tian, ​​could you please go out and buy me a cake? I'll bring it back to the old house later."

The aunt was a little stunned, but seeing that the man looked like he really wanted to take it, she quickly nodded and said yes, then went out with her wallet and keys.

Chu Yue stood at the entrance, feeling a little lost.

Zhou Xingzhi grabbed her wrist, went to the cloakroom, and gently closed the door.

When Chu Yuechu was dragged away, his breathing quickened. When he arrived at the cloakroom, he began to observe the decoration there.

"It looks like..." She was just about to say that the designer of this house had good taste when a pair of big hands suddenly held her face, and Zhou Xingzhi's warm lips swallowed all the words on her lips.

The scent of cedar after the rain invaded her brain from her lips and teeth. Her heart seemed to skip a beat, then beat again eagerly, stimulating a sense in her body. Their breaths mingled, and the room was filled with the rich scent of hormones.

Chu Yue opened her eyes wide, staring at that face, wondering what had gone wrong. It seemed Shen Yaolin had pushed himself this way before. Suddenly sensing danger, she reached out to push his chest, feeling his powerful heartbeat and the warmth of his skin through the fabric.

"Um... Zhou Xingzhi... what are you crazy about?" Chu Yue frowned and tried to push him away.

It was no use. He easily grasped those hands, biting them greedily, invading them, leaving her with no way to retreat.

"Zhou Xingzhi...you bastard..." Chu Yue struggled in vain and shed tears. She wanted to hit him, but he restrained her hands.

Zhou Xingzhi let her go, wiped her tears with one hand, and grabbed her face with the other hand as she was about to slap him.

"I'm crazy. Chu Yue, the moment I rescued you from the sea two years ago, you took root in my mind, but you don't remember anything."

She was trembling, but still turned her face away, stubbornly refusing to look at him.

"You are always polite and distant to me, but every time you mention Ji Yan, you always understand each other tacitly and have countless common memories. When you looked at Guo Tongchu, your eyes were affectionate and full of expectations. Even though he had a girlfriend, you could still stand there and wait. I was jealous to the point of going crazy. Why can they do it, but I can't?" He pinched her chin and made her look directly at him.

"Or is this just a way for you to keep others hanging?"

Chu Yue was so angry that her whole body was shaking and tears kept flowing. Looking at that big face, the scarlet eyes, and the legs that trapped her, she felt scared.

"You...let me go!" She wanted to break free and escape.

Zhou Xingzhi's expression softened, and the hand holding her wrist gently led her to hug his waist, as if admitting defeat, or compromising.

Holding her in his arms, he took a long breath in her ear and said, "Okay, okay, I won't force you." He stroked her back gently to comfort her who was still trembling.

Chu Yue calmed down and was full of contempt and disdain for his behavior. Was he too frivolous or had he always been so confident?

She broke free from his embrace, wiped her tears, walked to the door, sniffed, and said, "Zhou Xingzhi, I'm not a female student who hasn't graduated yet. I know there is a class gap between people. Even if we ignore family background, aesthetics, and world outlook, we can't talk about it. What you do to me is nothing more than lust."

Chu Yue knew all too well what people like them were like. They were simply itching to get what they wanted. Going crazy was a result of unsatisfied primal desires and the resulting anger and humiliation driven by competitive consciousness.

She emphasized the last four words, opened the door to the cloakroom, and said, "In terms of character, you are far inferior to Ji Yan and Guo Tongchu."

After saying that, she left, leaving Zhou Xingzhi sitting dejected on the floor of the cloakroom. In her heart, she was afraid that he never wanted to see her again.

She went downstairs, took a taxi, and went home, all in one go. She opened the shoe cabinet and found the pair of men's slippers lying quietly there.

Chu Yue didn't pay much attention to it. She just changed into her slippers, threw her bag on the sofa, and continued with her unfinished painting.
