Chapter 27 I Don’t Want It

The man's words stunned Chi Yuan.

"What's wrong with me? I'm not feeling well, how can I show any expression?"

From the way he spoke, it seemed as if she had made a huge mistake.

Qi Wang approached her and said, "You look like you're half dead. What will others think? They don't know your physical condition."

"Why would I care what others think? If it weren't for you, would I have attended the banquet while sick? I got sick because..."

Chi Yuan spoke a little hurriedly, and her already red cheeks turned even redder.

But there are some things...she is not qualified to say after all.

What good will it do to say it?

If Qi Wang cared about her, he shouldn't have left last night.

"Why?"

Chi Yuan looked like he was worried, which made Qi Wang inexplicably irritated.

But she only said half of the words.

"If you're fine, don't act like that. It's as if I've wronged you." He said this in an impatient tone, but he pulled out a tissue and gently wiped away her tears.

The action was quite gentle, but Chi Yuan, who was immersed in grievance at the moment, did not notice it.

"You also heard what Qi Yu said just now. My eldest brother is going back to his country. You look like that. Those who know you know that you are not feeling well. But those who don't know you think you are still thinking about my eldest brother!"

Chi Yuan's eyes widened, tears welling up in her eyes. She tried hard not to let them flow out: "I don't miss him! Believe it or not!"

Everything can be linked to Qi Ye.

Although she was not sure what had happened back then, Qi Ye's attitude at that time made her extremely heartbroken. Four years later, she could occasionally think of some details of the scene that she had overlooked. Even if she didn't say it deliberately, she knew it in her heart.

Being sad is one thing, but it doesn't mean that she will continue to like him.

Qi Wang didn't answer her, his tone was somewhat helpless, and he pulled out another piece of paper.

"Close your eyes."

Chi Yuan quickly shook her head and tried to wipe away her tears with her hands, but the man grabbed her wrist first.

The movement was a bit too big, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes. Qi Wang quickly wiped them away with his other hand.

"Okay, there's nothing to feel wronged about. Now that we're here, let's go home immediately after the banquet."

Qi Wang meant to let the matter go, but Chi Yuan felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Wasn't it because of him that he ended up like this? Who was he to blame himself?

Chi Yuan took a deep breath and calmed down some of his impulses: "When we get home, I have something to tell you. You must return to Guibai Road tonight."

Even if we still have to divorce later, it's good to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings now.

Qi Wang naturally agreed, and the two of them tidied their clothes and prepared to leave the lounge.

Chi Yuan suddenly noticed the man's tie, and after confirming the style, his pupils contracted sharply.

It was exactly the same as the one she chose!

"What happened again?"

Qi Wang lowered his head following her gaze and understood.

Chi Yuan opened and closed his lips, and asked in a very thin voice: "Who gave you this tie?"

She thought of the tie she hadn't given away yet.

If I hadn't been so impulsive at that time, would he have worn the one I gave him at the party today?

Chi Yuan knew the chances were slim, but at that time, she could still fantasize.

"How do you know it was a gift from someone else and not something I bought myself?"

Qi Wang answered smoothly, and seeing the unwillingness in her eyes, he felt inexplicably happier.

"You have so many ties in your closet, all the same color, it's impossible for you to buy this specific style even if you do."

Could it be Ye Ranran?

Just thinking about her, Chi Yuan felt that the tie was extremely annoying and even wanted to destroy it on the spot.

But what if it wasn't? Maybe Qi Wang just dragged someone to buy it.

"It seems like you know me very well?" Qi Wang just chuckled, and suddenly lowered his head, breathing close to hers. Chi Yuan subconsciously wanted to hide, but was immediately pulled back by the back of his head: "What are you hiding from?"

"You...speak properly and don't get so close to me."

A hint of amusement flickered in the man's eyes. "So what if I get closer? I want to be closer to my wife. Is that a problem?"

How come this person...

Chi Yuan felt very uncomfortable and asked quickly, "You haven't answered my question yet. Who gave you the tie?"

The moment she asked again, she denied herself.

Even if you haven't gotten an answer yet, deny yourself first. When you really get the answer, the gap in your heart won't be too big.

Qi Wang saw that she was looking elsewhere and his expression darkened a little.

"It's from an important person, and you seem to care about it."

Important people...

Even though she had anticipated the outcome, when she actually heard it, her heart felt as if it was being tightly gripped, making it hard for her to breathe.

"Chi Yuan, what are you angry about?"

The man approached again forcefully. Chi Yuan tried to dodge, but his back hit the door.

"I...why do I care? I'm not angry. Who gave you the gift has nothing to do with me!"

If she had known this, she would not have asked any more questions, knowing that the person could not be her!

Qi Wang seemed unwilling to let her go, and his tone seemed to deepen because of her words.

"I told you, Chi Yuan, if you want something, just say it directly. If you're like this, you won't be able to catch anything."

In an instant, she felt as embarrassed as if the man had seen through her.

He seemed to know what she was thinking, but he didn't say it clearly.

Chi Yuan gritted his teeth and shot back: "What does what I want have to do with you? Besides, I told you what I thought, do you care?"

My brain suddenly became much clearer.

He was already feeling aggrieved when he set out today, and now he was being teased by him time and time again. Chi Yuan had already reached his limit.

"You said you would stay home last night, but you went to Ye Ranran's house anyway? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be sick at all!"

Looking at the man's tie, Chi Yuan found it more and more annoying. Not knowing where he got the courage from, he grabbed the tie with both hands and bumped his forehead against his.

Qi Wang felt pain, so she pulled off her tie and ran straight to the trash can.

"It's a gift from an important person, and you're so proud of it? It's amazing that someone cares about you!"

As soon as she raised her hand, her wrist was grabbed.

Chi Yuan was already furious, and when he saw that he was being stopped, he slapped him in the face.

This slap stunned Qi Wang and also calmed Chi Yuan down a little.

She felt her palms tingling, her chest heaving, and her whole body sweating, but it was no longer as uncomfortable as when she first came.

The fever-reducing medicine worked.

Chi Yuan looked at the wrinkled tie in his hand, and a sense of sadness arose in his heart for no reason.

What is she doing? Qi Wang won't pay any more attention to her because of this.

"Give it back to you! I don't care about anyone else who's more important than you!"

Chi Yuan crumpled his tie into a ball and threw it hard at the man, trying to escape, but Qi Wang grabbed his wrist.

"you……"

At the same time, there was a knock on the door. It was the waiter.

"Second Young Master, Second Young Madam, the master wants you to go over immediately."
