"oh…"
This tone made her sound even more aggrieved.
He Zhao was also raised on fish and meat when he was young, but he went abroad for eight years and spent the first few years hanging out with thugs. He used all his savings to buy medicine and had no money to eat fish.
So he had a strong obsession with fish, while Qiao Zhen knew nothing about it until one day He Zhao suddenly threw down his chopsticks and left the dinner table.
Qiao Zhen watched him leave with a cold eye.
Moral character.
They've all been spoiled.
She looked at the large amount of meat, fish, and shrimp in front of her, and then at the vegetable porridge in front of He Zhao. Sigh, the contrast was a bit too stark, it really was a bit excessive. Qiao Zhen put down her chopsticks and planned to go upstairs to coax him.
Qiao Zhen quietly pushed open the study door and poked her head in. "He Zhaozhao, little He Zhaozhao, are you in there? Kindergarten is over, the hide-and-seek game is finished."
He Zhao looked coldly at Qiao Zhen, his eyes filled with the word "naive".
Qiao Zhen pushed open the door and entered, feigning surprise as she said, "Wow! He Zhaozhao, you're actually here! Qiao Zhenzhen only found you at the very end."
He Zhao continued to look at her coldly, which made Qiao Zhen unable to continue her act. She took a breath, pulled up a chair, and sat down opposite the desk. "Sigh, you can't be that serious, can you?"
He Zhao still did not answer.
Qiao Zhen cupped her face and looked at He Zhao, who was engrossed in his work, and advised, "Eat something. Today is the fourth day. If you only eat porridge for a week, I'll let you eat something else, okay? Don't give up halfway."
He Zhao ignored him.
This step is not enough.
Qiao Zhen sighed, went downstairs to bring up some vegetable porridge, and held the spoon to He Zhao's lips, "Please, give me some face and eat a little, for Madam He's sake."
He Zhao opened his mouth and ate the porridge.
Qiao Zhen fed him bite after bite, and then wiped the corners of his mouth, saying, "Good boy."
He Zhao blushed slightly.
Qiao Zhen didn't want to tease him and annoy him, so she tactfully took the bowl and left.
After a week had passed, He Zhao began to frantically hint to Qiao Zhen that he wanted to eat fish.
Qiao Zhen didn't see through the hint at first, but the system reminded her, and she understood He Zhao's hint. So the He family started having 360 different ways to eat fish every day.
Fish soup, steamed fish, braised fish, sweet and sour fish, all kinds of fish.
He Zhao was very content and became more and more amiable towards Qiao Zhen. Qiao Zhen also took great care of him. Occasionally, she would throw a tantrum or run away from home, but He Zhao would always have someone bring her back.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and the two's relationship had warmed up to a certain extent. While He Zhao was setting a trap in the study, Qiao Zhen was monitoring him through the system.
He Zhao, that idiot, actually revealed his whereabouts three days later to a foreign mafia, and that mafia was He Zhao's mortal enemy abroad.
City people know how to have fun.
These days, the chosen ones are really arrogant and reckless, courting death. Why are you even trying to stop them?
Qiao Zhen, who was supposed to cooperate with his performance, decided to cooperate as well. She was afraid that He Zhao couldn't carry the whole movie by himself, so she also joined in, after all, she was also an award-winning actress.
Three days later, just as Qiao Zhen had predicted, He Zhao was kidnapped by the mafia and imprisoned on a ship, and Qiao Zhen was also forced to stay with He Zhao.
Both of them were given anesthesia. When Qiao Zhen woke up, He Zhao was still tied up next to her, his life hanging in the balance. "Husband?! Husband?! Wake up!"
He Zhao made no move.
Using her flexibility, Qiao Zhen untied the ropes binding her and then helped He Zhao untie them as well.
Every second was torture.
"Hmm..." He Zhao rubbed his forehead against the ground, slowly waking up. He opened his eyes and saw Qiao Zhen sitting blankly beside him. "Wife, where is this?"
Qiao Zhen said in a trembling voice, "I don't know either. We were here when I woke up." She frantically tried to help He Zhao up, but just as He Zhao was about to sit up, she pretended to be weak and let him fall back onto the cold, damp ground.
She cursed inwardly, "Serves him right."
"Ugh!" He Zhao groaned urgently, and then sat up again with the help of Qiao Zhen.
Although He Zhao's face was a little pale, he still squeezed Qiao Zhen's hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid."
Qiao Zhen shook her head and broke out in a cold sweat. She said weakly, "I'm fine, just a little weak. Maybe the medicine hasn't worn off yet. Honey, are you alright?"
"fine."
When the two were both starving, a blond, blue-eyed man pushed open the door and came in. He took off his black leather gloves and said, "Hey, it's been a long time."
Although He Zhao's body was limp, his breath was weak, and his face was pale, well... no buts, he was now just a piece of fish on someone else's chopping board, no, two pieces.
Qiao Zhen moved forward, blocking He Zhao's path. "Which little Japanese devil are you?"
"Your wife and you have such a good relationship, but I have some things in my possession. I wonder if your wife will still be so protective of you after she sees them." The man ignored Qiao Zhen, a hint of wickedness in his upturned lips.
Qiao Zhen looked at him warily, her body shrinking back, yet she still stood firmly in front of He Zhao. "What do you have in your hands? Just hand it over. Why are you dawdling and waiting for dark to get things done?"
The man squatted down and lifted Qiao Zhen's chin with his fingertips. "Tsk, nothing special."
He reached out and took a document from his subordinate, then slapped it onto Qiao Zhen's arm. "Being sharp-tongued is useless. You should take a good look at what's inside."
A sudden pain shot through her arm. Qiao Zhen picked up the documents from the ground and opened them without hesitation. Inside were records of money her biological parents had given to the He family, as well as information about their adoption of her. The documents included everything that happened before she lost her memory, whether she knew it or not. She just looked at He Zhao in disbelief, "Is all of this real or fake?"
