Ever since Jiang Yao saw Shen Qingchen and Jiang Zhi's happy appearance at their wedding, she'd felt like she was being gnawed by a million ants. Her mind was filled with Shen Qingchen's gentle, affectionate gaze, but it wasn't directed at her. Jealousy, like poison, slowly fermented in her heart, gradually eroding her sanity.
On this day, Jiang Yao learned that Shen Qingchen was working overtime alone at the company. She dressed up carefully, wearing the red dress that she thought best highlighted her charm, put on exquisite makeup, and even sprayed on the perfume that Shen Qingchen had praised. She came to Shen Qingchen's office with a seemingly important document.
Jiang Yao knocked on the door gently and heard Shen Qingchen's low voice: "Come in." She took a deep breath, pushed the door open and walked in. Shen Qingchen was busy at his desk. When he heard someone come in, he looked up and saw that it was Jiang Yao, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Brother Qingchen, are you busy? I happened to pass by today and remembered that I had a document to show you." Jiang Yao's voice was soft and sweet. As she spoke, she walked towards Shen Qingchen's desk, but her eyes inadvertently looked at Shen Qingchen.
Shen Qingchen smiled politely and said, "Jiang Yao, thank you, but it's so late, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Jiang Yao placed the documents on the table and sat down on the chair opposite Shen Qingchen. She gently touched her hair and said, "I just finished my own work. Brother Qingchen, you've been working so hard overtime. What's the big deal about me?"
Shen Qingchen nodded slightly and began to look through the documents. Jiang Yao sat opposite, but her eyes never left Shen Qingchen. After a while, as if she suddenly remembered something, she whispered, "Brother Qingchen, I've noticed that Sister Jiang Zhi seems to be behaving strangely recently."
Shen Qingchen frowned, looked up at Jiang Yao, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Jiang Yao pretended to be hesitant and said, "I don't want to doubt Sister Jiang Zhi, but I've seen her meeting with mysterious people several times. They seem sneaky, and the places they meet are always very remote."
Shen Qingchen's heart moved, but he quickly shook his head and said, "Maybe you misunderstood, Jiang Zhi is not that kind of person."
Jiang Yao was secretly delighted. She knew that even though Shen Qingchen said this, she must have had some doubts in her heart. She continued to exaggerate, "I also hope that I misunderstood, but I once saw her meeting a man near an abandoned warehouse. The man was dressed in black and didn't look like a good person. They talked there for a long time. I was far away and couldn't hear what they were saying, but Sister Jiang Zhi looked very nervous."
Shen Qingchen's brows furrowed even more, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Jiang Yao saw his expression and knew that her words had worked, so she continued, "Brother Qingchen, I know you love Sister Jiang Zhi very much, and I don't want to see any misunderstandings between you. But her behavior is really suspicious. I wonder if she is hiding something from you?"
Shen Qingchen was silent for a while, then said: "Jiang Yao, thank you for telling me this, but I believe Jiang Zhi will give me a reasonable explanation."
Jiang Yao was a little disappointed. She had expected Shen Qingchen to be furious with Jiang Zhi, or at least show more suspicion. But she still did not give up and continued, "Brother Qingchen, you can't be so naive. Today's society is very complicated. Some women appear kind on the surface, but in fact they have hidden secrets. I am just worried that you will get hurt."
Shen Qingchen looked at Jiang Yao, his expression becoming serious. He said, "Jiang Yao, I know you mean well, but we can't just speculate without evidence. Jiang Zhi is my wife, and I trust her."
Jiang Yao's heart tightened. She knew she couldn't continue talking, otherwise it would arouse Shen Qingchen's disgust. So she quickly smiled and said, "Brother Qingchen, you are right. I may really be overthinking. I hope I am wrong. Sister Jiang Zhi is a good person. Then I won't disturb you from working. You can get busy."
After saying that, Jiang Yao stood up and walked out of Shen Qingchen's office with a twist of her waist. After she closed the door, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, replaced by a look of resentment. She cursed in her heart: "Jiang Zhi, don't think you can get happiness so easily. I will definitely make you lose everything."
Shen Qingchen sat in his office, looking at the documents Jiang Yao had sent him, but he couldn't concentrate. Jiang Yao's words kept echoing in his mind. Although he didn't want to believe that Jiang Zhi had any problems, Jiang Yao's description made him unable to let go. He decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Jiang Zhi after returning home.
Jiang Zhi was preparing dinner at home at this time. She cooked Shen Qingchen's favorite dishes and carefully arranged the table. She was waiting for Shen Qingchen to come home with joy, but she didn't know that a small storm was about to come.
When Shen Qingchen returned home and saw the happy smile on Jiang Zhi's face, he felt guilty. He didn't know whether he should tell Jiang Zhi what Jiang Yao had said. He didn't want to ruin the warm atmosphere, but he felt that hiding it from Jiang Zhi was not a solution to the problem.
Seeing that Shen Qingchen looked a little absent-minded, Jiang Zhi asked with concern: "Qingchen, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter any troubles at work?"
Shen Qingchen hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Jiang Zhi what Jiang Yao had said. He looked into Jiang Zhi's eyes and said, "Zhizhi, Jiang Yao came to the company to see me today. She said she saw you meeting some mysterious people. What's going on?"
