Zhou Jingxing stared in astonishment at Chen Zhou's retreating figure.
My wife yelled at me!
He actually yelled at me because of another man!
Zhou Jingxing felt incredibly wronged. He chased after him, saying, "I didn't distrust you."
Actually, there is one point, well, there are many.
"I just think he seems like he's the kind of person who'll cause trouble. He hurt you last time, and I'm afraid you'll get hurt by him again."
And he looks like a scheming, innocent girl who's just trying to steal someone's home!
Chen Zhou stopped and turned to look at him. "Do you have paranoia? What happened last time was just an accident. Besides, what kind of injury could you get from going out for noodles with colleagues?"
Seeing that he had finally paid attention to him, Zhou Jingxing was so happy that he started talking nonsense. "Who knows? Gas cylinder explosion? Fire?" He lied through his teeth. "Maybe he's a shill, deliberately tricking people into going to the noodle shop."
Chen Zhou laughed angrily, "A restaurant scammer who tricks people into spending no more than three figures? Do you think that's reasonable?!"
Zhou Jingxing shrugged. "Who knows? The economy is bad right now, and there are so many scammers."
"I can't be bothered to talk to you." After saying that, Shen Zhou really ignored him and walked away. Zhou Jingxing hurriedly chased after her, "Wife, I was wrong, please don't really ignore me!" He clung to Shen Zhou like a puppy desperately trying to please its owner after doing something wrong, "Don't be angry, I won't do it again."
Without turning his head, Chen Zhou asked, "Then tell me, what did you do wrong?"
Zhou Jingxing said bitterly, "I shouldn't have spoken so rudely to your assistant in person."
I'll talk about it behind your back next time.
"I shouldn't have made things difficult for you in front of your colleagues."
I should find a way to get rid of him and make sure he can't be your colleague.
Chen Zhou looked at Zhou Jingxing, who was clinging to him with a wronged expression. "And you don't trust me, you're always so suspicious." He nudged him with his elbow. "If you do this again, I'm really not going to talk to you anymore!"
Zhou Jingxing smiled and put his arm around his shoulder, saying nonchalantly, "I know, thank you for being so magnanimous and not holding it against me."
"...I've told you many times not to call me 'wife' in public!"
Seeing that no one was around, Zhou Jingxing leaned close to Chen Zhou's ear and whispered, "What should I call you? Can I call you 'Baby'?" Chen Zhou got goosebumps. "No, that won't do either! I'm 31 already. It would be too weird to call me 'Baby'."
Zhou Jingxing pouted, looking aggrieved, and said exaggeratedly, "This won't work, that won't work, you always reject me, I'm so sad." He smiled mischievously, "Wife, you have to make it up to me."
Chen Zhou asked warily, "Compensation for what? Huh? Where are you taking me?!"
Zhou Jingxing pulled Chenzhou onto a path leading to the artificial hills. After walking a few quick steps, once they were completely away from the crowd, he pinned Chenzhou against an antique-style pillar of the viewing pavilion.
Perhaps because he had just exercised, Zhou Jingxing's lips were very hot, and Shen Zhou felt as if his tongue was about to melt from the heat. Knowing that someone might come at any moment, he unconsciously whimpered, weakly resisting by placing his hands on Zhou Jingxing's chest, and turning his head back.
Sensing his resistance, Zhou Jingxing simply grabbed his head with one hand, deepening the kiss, his large hand roaming freely around Shen Zhou's waist, as if trying to penetrate the sportswear and press directly onto his delicate skin.
"Hmm..."
The passionate kiss was so intense that Chen Zhou's head was spinning, and he could hardly breathe. In his daze, he gripped Zhou Jingxing's clothes tightly, like a drowning man clinging to a piece of driftwood.
Zhou Jingxing looked up and grasped Chen Zhou's waist, looking at him with satisfaction as he stared blankly. He couldn't help but kiss those rosy lips again.
"Thank you for the compensation, my wife."
Shen Zhou, her cheeks flushed, leaned against Zhou Jingxing's chest without saying a word. Zhou Jingxing, feeling smug, began to reflect on his actions, realizing he had been too careless when facing Bai Lian!
Being too aggressive not only failed to deter the enemy, but also put him in a predicament where he would be blamed by his wife.
Zhou Jingxing thought he still needed to pull himself together! He couldn't let his growing feelings for Shen Zhou make him lose all his fighting spirit. With such a charming wife, he would encounter all sorts of rivals in the future, and if he didn't deal with them properly, he would be eliminated.
Just like a scumbag with kidney deficiency.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jingxing's eyes darkened, and he hugged Chen Zhou even tighter.
Shen Zhou was unaware of his inner thoughts. After a long while, he came to his senses and looked up to ask Zhou Jingxing, "Our department is organizing a team-building activity this weekend. We'll be spending two days at a nearby farm, and family members can come along. Do you want to come?"
"Company team building activities sound so boring."
Chen Zhou poked his chest. "That's why I asked you to come with me. Don't worry, there won't be any awkward icebreakers or team-building games, and the company will cover the expenses."
Zhou Jingxing thought of Bai Lian, "Is it mandatory for everyone to go?"
Shen Zhou nodded. "Yes, it reflects the company culture."
Zhou Jingxing thought to himself, "Is this some kind of forced culture?" He nodded in agreement, "I'll go. But I'm really socially awkward and I hate meeting strangers, so you'll have to come with me."
Chen Zhou patted his face, "You're still socially anxious?" Then he laughed, "I know, I'll always be there for you."
On the day of the team building event, Zhou Jingxing looked resentfully at Chen Zhou, who was busy as one of the organizers, and a sentence suddenly popped into his mind: "A man's words are deceitful."
They weren't with me at all!
Shen Zhou was busy contacting vehicles and hotels, and notifying company staff. He even only ate a couple of bites of his meal before rushing off to check the headcount with the manager.
After lunch, it was free time, and Shen Zhou finally had some free time. He rushed back to his room without even having time to eat anything – he had neglected the puppy all morning and wondered if the puppy would be angry.
Zhou Jingxing was sitting on the sofa playing games with his headphones on when Chen Zhou quietly sat down behind him and reached out to hug him.
"Sigh!" Zhou Jingxing took off his headphones. "You still know how to come back."
Chen Zhou laughed, "Such a big grudge." He pinched Zhou Jingxing's cheek, "I was busy with work then."
Zhou Jingxing grabbed his mischievous hand. "If it weren't for this, I would have lost my temper long ago." He complained, "You said you would stay with me the whole time before we left, but look what happened, you've been busy all morning and I haven't seen a trace of you." He then asked Chen Zhou, "Are you all done with your work now?"
Chen Zhou felt a little guilty. "Everything's done. How about I stay with you from now on?"
Zhou Jingxing asked him, "Did you eat anything after that? You left right after you sat down at lunchtime without eating anything."
Shen Zhou did not answer his question directly, "I'm not hungry."
Zhou Jingxing looked at him disapprovingly. "I knew you hadn't eaten." He got up and went to the table to bring back a box. "I had some scallion pancakes that the hotel made themselves for lunch and thought they were pretty good, so I went to buy some for you." He handed the box to Chen Zhou. "Try them."
Seeing that Chen Zhou had started eating the pancake, he opened a bottle of water for him. "Eating only pancakes might be a bit dry. The chicken soup we had at noon was good, but it was sold out when I went to buy it. You'll have to make do with some water."
Shen Zhou swallowed the biscuit and drank water from Zhou Jingxing's hand. Zhou Jingxing's heart itched at his obedient appearance, and as soon as his lips parted from the bottle, he kissed him. Shen Zhou hugged Zhou Jingxing tightly, obediently taking his kiss and whispering, "How can you be so good?"
Zhou Jingxing immediately pushed his luck, "If you think I'm good enough, marry me. We'll have the wedding on the beach in Sanya, and I'll buy you a huge diamond engagement ring." He got more and more outrageous, "Your wedding dress will be custom-made in Paris, and our kids will go to international high school..."
Shen Zhou chuckled, "Stop, stop! What would a man like me wear in a wedding dress? And how could the two of us possibly have a child? Surrogacy is illegal."
Zhou Jingxing said in a serious tone, "How can you get married without wearing a wedding dress? If you don't like it, then I'll wear it."
"And children, I've always hoped you'd give me one."
Shen Zhou laughed and collapsed onto the sofa. "How am I supposed to give birth? This isn't an ABO mpreg story, I don't have that skill."
Zhou Jingxing rolled over and braced himself against the back of the sofa, looking down at Chen Zhou. "That's because I haven't tried hard enough. Don't be discouraged. Your husband will give you more, and I'll get you pregnant sooner or later."
Shen Zhou smiled as she looked at Zhou Jingxing, but was stunned by the expression on his face. Zhou Jingxing looked extremely serious, even stern, as he stared at Shen Zhou's belly, as if studying how to fit a child inside.
What the heck? The art style suddenly turned bizarre!
Shen Zhou quietly moved back a little, silently swallowing. Zhou Jingxing looked so serious that he felt inexplicably nervous.
Zhou Jingxing suddenly reached out and stroked the skin on the back of Chen Zhou's neck. "The novel says that you have to bite here during that time to inject pheromones, and you will get pregnant after the mark is completed."
Shen Zhou shuddered involuntarily, like a rabbit being targeted by a hyena. "But, but that's all fiction in novels. There are no pheromones at all."
Zhou Jingxing continued to stroke that patch of skin with regret. What a pity. If only it were truly an ABO world, he would permanently mark Chen Zhou, imbuing him with his own scent inside and out, making him unable to leave him for the rest of his life.
Zhou Jingxing's calloused fingertips caressed Shen Zhou's smooth, delicate nape, sending shivers down his spine. Shen Zhou turned his head away, trying to avoid his hand.
Zhou Jingxing finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked Chen Zhou, "Wife, are you full?"
Shen Zhou nodded. "Mm."
Zhou Jingxing smiled. "Honey, I'm a little hungry. Can you feed me?"
"There are still cookies in the box, you can have them yourself, um..."
Words were lost in the kiss, and Zhou Jingxing, who had been listening to Chen Zhou's ingratiating groans, got up and supported himself on top of her, completely enveloping her.
His gaze lingered on Shen Zhou's chest, his eyes intensely piercing, yet his tone remained gentle and polite, "Is that alright?"
Shen Zhou was dizzy and subconsciously nodded. The next second, he realized something was wrong and couldn't help but moan softly, "No! Not here..."
Zhou Jingxing looked up, his gaze filled with confusion and grievance. "But you just promised me." He insisted domineeringly, "You nodded, which means you promised me, and if you promised, you have to do it." After saying that, he lowered his head again and acted recklessly.
"Mmm..."
Chen Zhou's voice changed, as if he had also found comfort in this behavior that he originally rejected.
After a long while, Zhou Jingxing finally released Chen Zhou. He reached under Chen Zhou's knees and easily lifted him up, placing him on the bed.
Looking into his aggressive eyes, Shen Zhou belatedly felt afraid. He turned around and tried to jump off the bed, but someone grabbed him and held him down.
Zhou Jingxing leaned down and lightly touched the skin on the back of his neck with his lips. "It's here, your gland." He then blew a breath in that spot. Chen Zhou got goosebumps and instinctively sensed danger. He tried to get up but found that Zhou Jingxing was holding both his shoulders down and even his legs were pinned down by strong, long legs.
"ah!"
The next second, Zhou Jingxing bit down on the back of Shenzhou's neck, his teeth sinking into the skin, and Shenzhou cried out in pain.
Zhou Jingxing only bit once before letting go. He licked his teeth marks and said, "Wife, is this the mark? You'll be pregnant with my child."
He's actually thinking about having children!
Shen Zhou didn't know what had gotten into him, but following his train of thought, he said, "Besides marking, you also need to form a knot, which means you..." He realized something was wrong and quickly shut his mouth, but it was too late. He heard Zhou Jingxing chuckle softly, "Then you'll have to open it up a bit later."
Zhou Jingxing said happily, "I want to tie the knot inside."
