The Clingy Contract: My CEO Husband Won't Stop Spoiling Me

”Pretty good...”

Pretty good, considering he’s my enemy.

This Qi Mo really makes her think of that ”Sha”.

Seems like he’s a killer too.

She just doesn’t know if what he usually says is true or not.

She doesn’t log into the system that often, she has no clue about a lot of their chats.

But she can check the logs.

If Qi Mo equals Sha.

Then things get interesting.

”Yue Guangxi, you don’t seriously like that kind of man, do you? You’ll be bored to death.”

”I don’t know, depends on fate...” Yue Guangxi tugged her arm. ”The guy you used to like is here too, want to go say hi?”

”No!”

”How about I go with you?” Yue Guangxi suggested.

Her waist had taken a bullet last time, but she gets injured all the time; as soon as she’s a bit better, she stops treating her body like it’s a body at all.

It clearly hurts, yet there’s still a smile on her face.

”Really no need. What, am I supposed to go over there and tell him I’ve turned gay?”

”You could.”

”I’m not about to go up to him first.” Shi Qingqing said, a little surprised.

She didn’t go over, but Chen Zhinan came over himself.

”Qingqing, I have something I want to talk to you about.”

”I don’t have anything I want to talk to you about.” Shi Qingqing’s faint smile dropped in an instant, her expression turning sour.

Chen Zhinan bent down and grabbed her wrist. ”Miss Shi, I’m certain there is something you want to talk to me about.”

”Chen Zhinan! Let go of me!”

”Chen Zhinan! Who gave you the right to grab me!”

”Let go of me!”

People at the banquet glanced over a couple of times, but no one said anything.

Watching the two of them leave, Yue Guangxi quietly left as well.

From beginning to end, she never came face to face with Qi Mo.

Shi Qingqing and Chen Zhinan stood at the end of the hallway.

She started walking out, unhappy.

It was already winter now, and she was dressed thinly.

She had just stepped outside when Chen Zhinan pulled her back in again.

”It’s freezing out there, do you want to catch a cold? Is this how you’ve been taking care of yourself these four years?”

”You’re a funny man, you know that? How I treat my own body—does it offend your eyes or something? Even if I catch a cold, it’s my cold, not yours.”

”Shi Qingqing! Do you have to be this stubborn? You tell me, dating that many boyfriends, or catching colds all the time—how does any of that do you any good?” Standing above her, Chen Zhinan looked down. The mildness in his eyes had clearly been stained with anger.

”Mr. Chen, do you realize that no matter what you say, I can shut you down with one line?” Shi Qingqing’s voice was soft as she leaned back against the icy wall. ”And that is—none of your damn business.”

”Shi Qingqing!” Chen Zhinan’s voice shot up.

”Did I say anything wrong? Do you want to boss me around as my former teacher, or as the almost-hired housekeeper you once tried to be? Or just as yourself? I don’t need anyone managing me, I’m not some three-year-old kid. Besides...”

”If you really want to control me, wait until you fall in love with me, become my boyfriend, then you can manage me all you want and I’ll listen. Right now, Mr. Chen, you’re in my way.”

Shi Qingqing easily pushed his body aside and strode off.

She knew perfectly well that Chen Zhinan didn’t like her now, so he shouldn’t dangle himself in front of her, shouldn’t put on that parent or boyfriend posture and bark at her.

He had no such right!

As if he’d actually feel sorry for her.

Shi Qingqing walked away step by step, graceful and composed; even she had to admire herself.

But once she stepped into the elevator, all that strength and all that armor were just an act.
