Chapter 77: They Slept on Separate Beds
The atmosphere was getting colder and colder. Bei Qingqing could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.
She felt that being next to Chen Jiazhi made her feel uncomfortable.
“I’m going downstairs to sleep,” Bei Qingqing said faintly, then got up.
After she got up, Bei Qingqing glanced at Chen Jiazhi’s back, her eyes filled with disappointment.
If Chen Jiazhi could turn around and coax her at this time, or turn around and explain where he had gone and what he had done, then she would be able to calm down and stay.
However, when Bei Qingqing got up and walked to the door, Chen Jiazhi seemed to have fallen asleep. There was no reaction at all. It was as if he did not care about what had happened tonight at all.
Bei Qingqing was extremely disappointed, so she closed the door and walked downstairs.
There were still a few guest rooms downstairs. Bei Qingqing did not disturb Ah Xiang. Instead, she tidied up one of the guest rooms and went in.
Lying on the bed, Bei Qingqing’s eyes were red with disappointment. Chen Jiazhi was a meticulous person. Bei Qingqing felt that it was impossible for him not to notice her anger.
The only explanation was that Chen Jiazhi did not care at all and did not want to coax her. That was why he chose to go to sleep even though he knew that she was angry.
At this moment, Chen Jiazhi slowly opened his eyes after Bei Qingqing left.
He caressed the spot where Bei Qingqing had left, which had a lingering warmth. He felt a wave of disappointment in his heart.
The next morning, Bei Qingqing got up early and went to school. She ignored Chen Jiazhi and turned around to leave on her own.
Chen Jiazhi was a little depressed, but he still did not follow Bei Qingqing. He called someone to secretly follow Bei Qingqing.
After Bei Qingqing left, he turned around to take a look. When he saw that Chen Jiazhi did not follow him, she felt angry.
During class, Bei Qingqing was not in the mood for the whole day, and she could not listen. After class, she returned home.
Bei Qingqing wanted to pretend that she did not care, but she saw that Chen Jiazhi was not at home, she still cared a little.
“Ah Xiang, where did Chen Jiazhi go?” Bei Qingqing could not help but ask.
Ah Xiang shook her head and said, “I don’t know. Young Master left very early. He didn’t say where he was going.”
Bei Qingqing was extremely puzzled. She looked at Chen Jiazhi’s number and struggled for a long time. She wanted to call Chen Jiazhi, but she did not want to take the initiative to give in.
After struggling for a while, Bei Qingqing still made the call. She thought that at worst, she could just pretend that she had dialed the wrong number.
Chen Jiazhi picked up quickly.
However, Bei Qingqing clearly heard the woman’s voice.
“Brother Jiazhi, are you listening to what I said?”
Bei Qingqing heard Lu Yao’s voice and hung up in a panic. For a moment, Bei Qingqing felt like her world had collapsed.
She did not expect Chen Jiazhi to really be with Lu Yao.
Chen Jiazhi only came back when it was time for dinner. It was the same as yesterday. Bei Qingqing did not wait for his explanation. The two of them were still the same. They looked at each other speechlessly.
Bei Qingqing felt very uncomfortable in his heart. She felt that he was a joke. What wedding? It was simply a joke.
Therefore, Bei Qingqing said lightly, “I’ve already thought about it. Let’s put the matter of our wedding on hold for now. I don’t think now is a good time.”
Chen Jiazhi was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Bei Qingqing to change her mind so quickly and decide not to hold a wedding. Anger suddenly rose in his heart, but he had no way to vent it. He said sharply, “If you don’t want to hold a wedding, then so be it.”
Chapter 78: The Wedding Was Postponed
Their wedding was to be put on hold. It was announced to the public that Chen Jiazhi’s body had not recovered yet, and he still needed some time to recuperate. The time for the wedding to recover was yet to be determined.
Upon hearing the news, some people were sad, while others were happy.
Lu Yao’s mother, Liu Jing, was very happy.
After hearing the news, she quickly ran to Lu Yao’s side.
“Oh my daughter! God is giving you a chance. As long as the two of them haven’t had a wedding, then you have a chance! Don’t let this great opportunity go to waste!” Liu Jing said earnestly to Lu Yao.
Lu Yao nodded and said, “I want to, but now that brother Jiazhi’s soul has been stolen by that woman, what can I do?”
Liu Jing hurriedly said, “There must be a way, right? You just have to think carefully. You have to seize the opportunity. Strive to be with Chen Jiazhi! What’s wrong with being the Young Madam of the Chen Family? Do you have a better candidate?”
Her mother’s words reminded her of what she once wanted. Indeed, she had tried to get in touch with some other men, but she still thought that Chen Jiazhi was the best.
After all, it was not easy to find someone as handsome and rich as Chen Jiazhi.
“Okay, mom, I will think of a way myself.”
Lu Yao made up her mind. She would use this time to show her charm to Chen Jiazhi. She would make Chen Jiazhi see how different she was and make him fall in love with her.
...
At this moment, Chen Jingzhi also felt that he had a chance.
After all, the two of them were so in love. There must be an inside story behind the suspension of the wedding. Chen Jingzhi guessed that the two of them must have quarreled. He was also very happy. After all, this was a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
So he called Bei Bei and asked her to think hard about this. They could not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Bei Bei thought for a long time at home and finally called Bei Qingqing.
“Sister Qingqing, are you busy today?” Bei Bei tried to sound as friendly as possible.
“Yes?” Bei Qingqing asked, puzzled.
“Aiya, didn’t we say that we were going to hold a banquet for you last time? There are some details that we want to confirm with you,” Bei Bei said.
“No need, you guys can do whatever you want,” Bei Qingqing refused.
“How can we do that? Mom and dad may look like they don’t care, but they actually really cared about this banquet. They also hoped to hold a grand banquet for you. Come over and we’ll discuss it together!” Bei Bei said as sincerely as possible.
Bei Qingqing paused for a moment. When she heard Bei Bei’s words, she actually felt a little bit of anticipation in her heart. Thus, she agreed to it.
Not long after, Bei Bei sent her the address. Bei Qingqing took a look and saw that it was actually a bar.
Bei Qingqing frowned. She had never been to a bar before and only felt that it was not a good place. Thus, she had always been somewhat resistant.
At first, she did not want to go, but when she suddenly thought of Chen Jiazhi, she became a little angry. Hence, Bei Qingqing decided to go to the place that Bei Bei had told her about.
Bei Bei was very excited when she saw that Bei Qingqing had really come. After all, if she was willing to come, then half of her plan had already succeeded.
“Sister Qingqing, come and sit down quickly. I’ll tell you about the banquet.” Bei Bei. She was very happy because Bei Qingqing was finally going to fall into her hands.
Bei Qingqing thought that with so many people around, Bei Bei would not do anything to her, so she sat down.
