Chapter 432: You must learn to be my good wife.

“Don’t come to the office anymore.”

She froze at his words.

If I don’t stop coming to the office for work, then what should I be doing?!

She reflexively raised her voice at him. “The hell?! You made me come to work, and now you’re telling me not to do so! Which is it, then? Make up your mind, will you?”

He smirked when she scowled. “I’m not done yet. Why are you flaring up already?”

She almost choked to death over his nonchalant attitude.

Pursing her lips together, she glowered at him and spoke in a hush tone. “Then, CEO Ji, please continue with your speech.”

“It’s ‘Ziming’.” He corrected the way she addressed him.

“… We are at work,” she mumbled disgruntledly. She did not want people in the company to know of their relationship as there would surely be endless trouble!

“This is my office, and there’s just the two of us here.” He cocked his brow.

“Alright, Ziming. What else do you want to say? Please say it all now.” She looked at him resignedly.

“Your treatment of me seems to have changed a little.” He did not grant her request and, instead, pointed out the change he noticed in her. She was somehow more outspoken with him than before.

He realized that this change had started after their spat in the car.

She paused and then shrugged. “I’m currently your pretend wife; it’s a given that my way of interacting with you will change a little. Unless you prefer my old self?”

“Mhm. This is just fine. This is good.” He shook his head at her suggestion.

He liked the her who was not shy to show her true self before him and the her who would not go against him.

“Oh.” She lowered her lashes, effectively hiding the emotions swirling in her eyes.

“You told me not to come to the office anymore; what do you mean?” she asked softly.

“To be my good wife, you are far too lacking in qualities. That’s why I want you to learn the things any wife of mine should know,” he explained.

She was struck dumb by his words.

“What do you want me learn?”

Isn’t it just being a shield? I still have to study that? What do I need to learn with being a shield?

“Hur… You’ve got plenty to learn.” He chuckled at how silly she looked.

“Can you give me an example?” she requested perplexedly.

“Basic social etiquette for one.”

While the man did not elaborate more than that, she had this strong gut feeling that she had numerous things to study.

“I’m just a shield. Do I really have to learn those that only a real wife should be required to know?” She sighed lightly. She felt that she had just jumped into a huge pit.

His lips involuntarily curled up at the corner at her look of death.

Perhaps, he himself did not realize that, after their quarrel and her change in attitude, he had been smiling a lot.

“I don’t wish you to throw my face away,” he reasoned. There was yet another smile in his eyes when he said that.

“Tsk! If you are worried of me bringing you shame, then you should just find someone more suitable for this position to sign that contract.” She nudged her lips unconcernedly.

The smile in the man’s eyes promptly disappeared at her dismissive tone.

“Pei Ge!” he warned as he glared at her.

“Fine, fine, fine. I know; I know. You dislike me the most and just want to make my life miserable by choosing me as your shield! I get it; I really get it.” She grinned at the man, who was emitting freezing air in rage.

Tsk! This annoying fellow is as annoying as ever. He’s so unpredictable and temperamental he’s worse than a woman on period!

He inexplicably felt uncomfortable at her playful words.

Although those were his exact words to her, he still felt discomfited when they were repeated to him.

“… It’s good that you know this.” He acknowledged coldly and, after a pregnant pause, pursed his lips.

“You don’t need to show your face in the office this afternoon.”

“So soon?” She looked at him in shock, not expecting that she would start not coming to the office today.

“Yes. I’ll formally introduce you to my parents a few days later.” He lowered his head to focus on the documents on his desk instead of her round and fair face.

The hell?! He isn’t even giving me time to prepare! Is he serious about introducing me to his parents immediately?!

Thump, thump! Her heartbeat accelerated due to her nervousness.

She was clearly a shield – a fake wife – yet she still felt very nervous when he told her that.

“CE—Ziming, why do I have to meet your parents? Is it not good enough to just tell them about me?” she inquired softly, suppressing her anxiety.

Honestly speaking, we already have our marriage certificate. All this annoying fellow needs to do is show it to his parents, no?

There’s totally no need to have me, this unpresentable shield, meet his parents, right? Something feels so off about this.

The man’s movements paused at her suggestion, his eyes turning blank and vacant.

But since his head was lowered, she did not see the emotions playing on his face.

“Alright. You may leave now.” He chased her out without answering any of her questions.

“Oh.” She could only leave his office with all her questions unanswered.

However, unbeknown to her, once she exited his office, the man grew pensive.

That’s right. I don’t need to bring her to my parents. Why… do I want to do that?
