Chapter 1942: Disheartened

Zhai Sheng did not reply but he did react. Zhai Sheng was tall and muscular and he simply hooked the door with his foot and pulled on it with his hand. With a click, the door was closed.

Once Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan got in the car, Xiao Xu, who was driving, had an expression that was only slightly better than Qiao Nan’s. Through the rearview mirror, Xiao Xu stole glances at Qiao Nan’s hand in Zhai Sheng’s from time to time. His heart leaped with joy. They were holding hands! He had seen the chief holding Sister Qiao’s hand from the moment they stepped out of the door! YES!

Although Xiao Xu’s reaction was not obvious, Qiao Nan was sensitive. Since she was sitting in the back with Zhai Sheng and was too embarrassed to interact with Zhai Sheng, the only person she could place her attention on was Xiao Xu.

It was only when a third party like Xiao Xu looked toward her hand did Qiao Nan realize the situation she was in. Looking down, her face flushed red and she pulled her hand away while coughing to remind Zhai Sheng.

After having held her hand for a few minutes, Zhai Sheng, who had enjoyed that feeling, finally released Qiao Nan’s hand with a little regret. When their hands were finally separated, the two men were filled with nothing but regret, whereas Qiao Nan secretly heaved a sigh of relief but felt a little lost.

Of course, that feeling dissipated the moment she alighted from the car. Zhai Sheng had alighted before her and had even opened the door for her. No sooner had Qiao Nan heard the door close did her hand get grabbed by Zhai Sheng again.

Before Qiao Nan could say a thing, Zhai Sheng said frankly, “It seems like there’s a festival going on here today. It’s really busy here in Qingshui Town. We’d better hold hands so that we don’t lose each other. It’ll be easier for us to work together and pick out a present together. Otherwise, who will I ask if we get separated? Also, I hold you so that you don’t get injured because of the crowds. I brought you out, so I have to take responsibility for you.”

Qiao Nan blinked blankly. It was just a crowd. She was not a three-year-old child who needed someone to hold her hands. Why did he have to talk about taking responsibility? Wasn’t this too over-the-top?

Qiao Nan felt that holding hands was too strange, but there was someone else who had been watching this scene unfold and thought that it was even stranger. It was so strange that her expression darkened. Qiu Chenxi had known that Zhai Sheng had been recuperating in Qingshui Town. Afterward, the entire Zhai family had returned to Ping Cheng because of Zhai Hua.

In comparison to the courtyard in Ping Cheng, it was easier to stay close to the Zhai family’s old villa in Qingshui Town. Qiu Chenxi had taken a gamble that Zhai Sheng would eventually return to Qingshui Town after settling Zhai Hua’s divorce. As such, Qiu Chenxi had returned to Qingshui Town after the new year, intending to repair her relationship with Zhai Sheng.

After she had failed to get Qiao Nan’s help the first time, Qiu Chenxi had been so infuriated that she had refused to meet that caretaker, Qiao Nan, a second time. She was unwilling to meet Qiao Nan, but she still cared about Zhai Sheng. As expected, Zhai Sheng had returned to Qingshui Town. Before she could think of a way to approach Zhai Sheng and make Zhai Sheng’s heart soften toward her, Zhai Sheng had gone out again.

This was a huge opportunity for Qiu Chenxi!

Besides the Zhai family’s old villa, wherever Zhai Sheng visited was a public area. That meant she could visit that place as well. Then, there would be no one who could stop her from getting close to him. Once she got close to him, she would then be able to confess her feelings for him!

Qiu Chenxi was truly determined. Because she had decided on staying in Qingshui Town, she had signed a long-term lease on an apartment, and she had even driven her car from Ping Cheng to Qingshui Town so that it would be more convenient for her to go out.

As such, when Zhai Sheng had gone out to find Qiao Nan in Xiao Xu’s car, Qiu Chenxi had found her way to Qiao Nan’s apartment since she had been there before, even though she had lost sight of Xiao Xu’s car. It was just that she had not driven into the complex.

While she was in her car, Qiu Chenxi was confused. What kind of relationship could Zhai Sheng possibly have with a caretaker like Qiao Nan, who had only taken care of him for two days? Could it be that Zhai Sheng had specially gone to thank Qiao Nan for saving Jiajia? If that was the case, she could only hope that Zhai Sheng had another destination for the day. Otherwise, she would have made a wasted trip.

Perhaps, he had heard Qiu Chenxi’s prayer for Qiu Chenxi saw that Xiao Xu was not headed toward the Zhai family’s old villa! But before she could get her hopes up, she could make out the silhouette of another person in the car and that person was a woman with long hair! At that, her expression soured.

In the three years that she had been married to Zhai Sheng, Zhai Sheng had never touched a strand of her hair. Even if he was at home, Zhai Sheng would always move away when she tried to sit next to him. When they went to sleep at night, Zhai Sheng would always leave some space between them. Every time she heard Zhai Sheng sleeping soundly, Qiu Chenxi questioned whether Zhai Sheng treated her as a woman or as a fellow soldier. Was that why Zhai Sheng did not feel anything or any impulse even when they slept next to each other?

Of course, Qiu Chenxi had also suspected that Zhai Sheng, who was already so accomplished at his young age, had been injured. If he had been injured in that area, he might not be able to do what normal men could. But that conjecture was quickly overturned.

Zhai Sheng was a soldier and had the habit of waking up early. Qiu Chenxi, on the other hand, was a typical urbanite. If Zhai Sheng was not around, Qiu Chenxi was a night owl who went to bed late and woke up late. As such, by the time Qiu Chenxi woke up, almost half of Zhai Sheng’s day had already gone by.

To figure out whether it was because Zhai Sheng did not have feelings for her or whether there was something wrong with Zhai Sheng’s body, Qiu Chenxi set an alarm for five o’clock in the morning. It was then that Qiu Chenxi realized that Zhai Sheng was a normal man, after all. Zhai Sheng had morning wood just like any other man. There was nothing wrong with his body.

That evening, once Zhai Sheng laid down, Qiu Chenxi deliberately stripped off her clothes under the blanket, threw herself in Zhai Sheng’s embrace, and looked seductively into Zhai Sheng’s eyes. She did not believe that a normal man like Zhai Sheng would ignore a naked beauty in front of him.

But the truth humiliated her badly. Even with Qiu Chenxi’s naked body in front of him, Zhai Sheng did not so much as move, much less reach out toward Qiu Chenxi. All he did was look indifferently at Qiu Chenxi. That gaze caused Qiu Chenxi to be disheartened. Zhai Sheng knew exactly why Qiu Chenxi had done so, and that was why he had not tried to avoid it. He wanted to let Qiu Chenxi know the consequences so that she would never dare to do it again.
