In the evening, when Cheng Jiawen came to pick up Xu Qianjiao, he was stared at by everyone. He frowned slightly, feeling a little confused. Why were they looking at him so strangely? It seemed like they were looking at him with sympathy, but also with ridicule...
But he didn't think much about it, just stood quietly by the side waiting for Xu Qianjiao to get off work.
When it was time to get off work, Xu Qianjiao saw Cheng Jiawen standing at the door waiting for her, and she felt a little uneasy. She lingered in her seat for a long time before leaving.
As soon as they went out, Cheng Jiawen reached out to take her bag, then took out a pack of biscuits from his pocket and handed it to her. Xu Qianjiao opened it and said, "Hmm, it's chestnut biscuits. They smell so good."
She looked at the chestnut cake in her hand, feeling a little guilty for once. She handed the chestnut cake to Cheng Jiawen's mouth and said, "Here."
Cheng Jiawen pushed his bicycle and felt the chestnut cake beside him. Without hesitation, he took a bite. "It's rare. She gave me the first bite tonight. Usually, she eats a bite herself and then passes it to him, letting him eat the rest. Why is she acting so abnormal tonight?"
Combined with the looks from her colleagues just now, the strange feeling in her heart became even stronger. He calmly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so nice to me tonight? Did you do something to let me down?"
"No, no." Xu Qianjiao, who was hit on the point by his words, stammered and retorted.
Hearing her guilty words, Cheng Jiawen parked his bicycle aside and stared at her. "Tell me, what's going on?"
Xu Qianjiao stirred the corner of her clothes and glanced at him cautiously, "I...I told you not to be angry."
Cheng Jiawen took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'm not angry. You can say it." Looking at Xu Qianjiao's cautious look, he felt a little sour and painful in his heart.
When had she, the fearless little princess, ever been so cautious in front of him? Thinking of this, his tone couldn't help but soften, "Tell me, I promise I won't be angry with you."
Xu Qianjiao carefully observed his expression, confirming that what he said was true, and then whispered, "I...an aunt came to see me today, and we chatted for a while. She asked me how we get along. I...I didn't know what to say, so I just said the way my parents get along."
"Well, what's next?"
"My colleagues were present when he asked, and I...they all heard it, and that's...that's it." Xu Qianjiao finished her story hesitantly.
Of course, she also concealed the fact that this matter would be in the newspaper. She still had a glimmer of hope in her heart that maybe it wouldn't be in the newspaper, so she decided not to tell anyone about it.
After hearing her words, Cheng Jiawen took a deep breath and silently convinced himself, "It's not a big deal. Only a few people know about it anyway, and I have no connection with them, so it's no problem."
Seeing Xu Qianjiao's anxious look, he couldn't help but reach out and touch her head, gently comforting her: "It's okay, it's not a big deal. It makes you so cautious."
It turned out that the strange expression on her colleague's face when he came to pick up Xu Qianjiao today was because he sympathized with him for keeping Xu Qianjiao under control.
Seeing that he showed no signs of anger, Xu Qianjiao quickly hugged him and asked, "Are you not angry?"
Cheng Jiawen tightened his arms and hugged Xu Qianjiao into his arms, "Do I dare to get angry? If the little crybaby starts crying again, I won't be able to comfort her."
"I'm sorry..." Hearing him say this, Xu Qianjiao felt even more guilty.
"It's okay. I'm not angry anymore, but you still have to make it up to me..." Cheng Jiawen said ambiguously in her ear, "Tonight...listen to me."
"Boom~" Xu Qianjiao's ears turned red when she heard his words, but she still nodded and said shyly, "Okay."
-------------------------------------
The next morning, after Cheng Jiawen sent Xu Qianjiao to work, he happily rode his bicycle back to the police station to work.
As soon as he entered the door, he felt the unusual atmosphere in the police station today. As soon as he entered the door, he instantly became the focus of the whole place, and everyone's eyes fell on him vaguely.
Ridiculing, sympathetic, pitiful...everything.
He frowned, wondering, "What's going on? Why are people suddenly like this? Did his wife's conversation with her colleagues at the station yesterday get here?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Ziwen suddenly came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Brother, you have worked hard, I didn't expect..."
"What did you not expect?" Cheng Jiawen was a little confused when he heard his words. Seeing that he was still confused, Jiang Ziwen couldn't help but handed him the newspaper in his hand. "Look, brother, we all know what you've been through. Don't worry, we will take good care of you in the future."
After saying that, he left immediately, leaving Cheng Jiawen standing there holding the newspaper.
He opened the newspaper and saw this eye-catching headline: Shocking! Crime-solving hero Cheng Jiawen is actually henpecked.
Small body, big strength. According to Cheng Jiawen's wife Xu Qianjiao, to control a man well, you have to speak loudly and treat him seriously. If a man is disobedient, just yell at him. Only in this way will he be obedient.
After reading the entire report, Cheng Jiawen's mouth twitched. He looked at the expressions of the crowd without any expression on his face, but the red mark on his ear betrayed him.
He pretended to be nonchalant and sat back in his seat, but after a while, everyone's teasing looks made him unable to sit still, so he had to hurried out for patrol, trying to escape everyone's teasing gazes.
As soon as he got to the door, he met Officer Liu. He looked at Cheng Jiawen with a smile and teased him, "Hahaha, Jiawen, now you're famous, everyone knows you. Tomorrow night, my wife wants you to bring your wife to my house for dinner. My wife wants to meet your wife."
Cheng Jiawen pulled the corner of his mouth and forced a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, sister-in-law. We'd better not disturb you anymore."
"Okay, then I'll go back and tell my wife that you have something to do tomorrow night." Officer Liu said immediately when he heard him say this.
He doesn't want his wife to have too much contact with Cheng Jiawen's wife. What if his wife also learns from Cheng Jiawen's wife? What will he do?
He stepped forward and patted Cheng Jiawen on the shoulder. "Hey, brother, you've worked hard. It's okay. You won't be free tomorrow night, so I'll treat you to lunch at the state-owned restaurant today. We can eat by ourselves and not tell my wife at home."
After saying that, he put his arm around Cheng Jiawen's shoulder and walked out.
