The tycoon's wicked wife from the era of literature has been reborn.

Chapter 17 Pushed Back onto the Haystack
Gao Qingmiao, who witnessed everything from the side, blushed and her heart pounded. She coughed twice.

I reminded the older sister to finish her practice quickly.

Otherwise, he couldn't guarantee what Zhou Zhenghua, with his fists clenched and eyes blazing, would do.

Gao Qinghe slowly pulled her hand away from Jiang Baohai's tight grip, took two steps back, and waved.

Jiang Baohai suddenly came to his senses and glanced at Zhou Zhenghua's green face.

I suddenly felt extremely happy.

He looked at Gao Qingmiao: "I just suddenly realized that I do need a bodyguard. Do you want to come?"

Gao Qingmiao was overjoyed and was about to agree.

Gao Qinghe pulled him behind her and gave Jiang Baohai an apologetic smile.

"I suddenly realized that I was too abrupt just now. Miaomiao is still young, so I won't let him cause you any trouble."

Jiang Baohai asked the question on a whim.

He wouldn't go out of his way to make a fool of himself if Gao Qinghe refused.

It was as if he cared about her a lot.

Depress the clutch, shift gears, release the handbrake, release the clutch again, lightly press the accelerator, and speed away.

Gao Qingmiao never expected that her eldest sister would just give away her immense wealth like this.

Confused, she asked, "Why did you refuse, sister? This is such a great opportunity!"

Gao Qinghe watched the red car disappear into the distance until it was completely out of sight before turning her gaze away.

"I have my reasons for refusing."

"The situation has changed, and we need to change our strategy as well."

"Strategy?" Gao Qingmiao didn't understand. Wasn't today very successful?
Although they were unable to bring the marriage certificate home.

But the fact that Boss Jiang personally brought them back speaks volumes.

Gao Qinghe smiled faintly, her cunning as a fox.

He glanced sideways at Zhou Zhenghua standing beside him, signaling to his younger brother that they could discuss the matter in detail when they got home.

Gao Qingmiao understood that the siblings were about to leave after bypassing Zhou Zhenghua.

Zhou Zhenghua took a deep breath.

"Qinghe, can I speak with you alone for a moment?"

He suddenly realized that Qinghe in front of him seemed different from before.

If he doesn't take action this time, he might regret it for the rest of his life.

The siblings stopped in their tracks.

Gao Qingmiao raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you see my sister has a boyfriend?!"

Ignoring him, Zhou Zhenghua suppressed the turmoil in his heart and stubbornly looked at Gao Qinghe.

Gao Qinghe read in his eyes a determination to never give up until the goal is achieved.

I figured it was better to make things clear so I wouldn't have to deal with him later.

Chong Gaoqing raised her chin and said, "You go home first."

Gao Qingmiao gave Zhou Zhenghua a worried look, warning him not to do anything reckless.

Otherwise, don't blame him for being rude to him!
Zhou Zhenghua smiled bitterly. He didn't know how he had become someone that Gao Qingmiao needed to be wary of.

"Don't worry, I just want to say a few words to your sister."

Gao Qingmiao thought to herself, "You're smart enough to leave," and then she left.

Only Gao Qinghe and Zhou Zhenghua remained on the stone bridge.

Gao Qinghe: "Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Zhou Zhenghua wanted to explain what happened at the county hospital that day, but Gao Qinghe impatiently interrupted him before he could even open his mouth.

“If that’s what you’re talking about, then there’s nothing to say, because you don’t need to explain it to me.”

Her face was cold, and even her eyes looked at her with disgust, as if she were looking at a fly.

Zhou Zhenghua couldn't help but recall the expression on her face when she had just faced Jiang Baohai.

She was shy and affectionate, her bright eyes filled with stars, brimming with joy from the bottom of her heart.

In the past, she would only do this to herself.

When Zhou Zhenghua recalled what had happened in the county town, he suddenly understood why she had suddenly become so cold towards him.

It turned out that during the time he was away from the village, she had fallen in love with someone else.

He wanted to question her about how she could do such a thing.

I suddenly realized that I had no right to question them at all.

Who is he to her?

He is nobody!
A surge of jealousy suddenly welled up in Zhou Zhenghua's heart, burning so intensely that his blood was sizzling and crackling.

"Qinghe, do you really like him?"

Gao Qinghe: "Why don't you like him?" "That guy doesn't look like a decent person. Rich people like him just play around with women and don't take it seriously."

Gao Qinghe shrugged: "What's it to you? You're just my neighbor!"

Neighbor.

It turns out she still cares about what happened in the county town last time.

Hope rekindled in Zhou Zhenghua's eyes. "Qinghe, if you're still angry with me because of what happened last time, then let me tell you now, I've thought it through. You're the person I care about most. From now on, you can do whatever you want."

Zhou Zhenghua quickly glanced around, clenched his fist, as if he had made a momentous decision.

He said with difficulty, "If you want to go public, I'll tell everyone right now that you're my girlfriend and I like you."

Gao Qinghe was so frightened that she took three steps back.

Who cares if he likes it!

Zhou Zhenghua anxiously reached out to pull her arm.

Didn't she want to go public?
He should go public now and let everyone know that he and she are together.

Gao Qinghe was truly terrified this time.

Over the years, Zhou Zhenghua has never even held her hand once.

She used to think it was because she was young and embarrassed.

In addition, there are many people in the village, and it wouldn't be good if the adults saw us.

Later, when Gao Qinghe wanted to take the initiative to hold hands, she discovered that Zhou Zhenghua was actually an old-fashioned and conservative man.

Let alone holding her hand, even if there's no one else around, he'll keep at least an arm's length distance from her.

Even in the sweltering summer, he would button his shirt all the way up to the top.

So now Zhou Zhenghua takes the initiative to reach out and pull her, even if it's just his arm.

That was enough to make Gao Qinghe's expression change drastically.

Gao Qinghe flung her arm away, "Don't touch me!"

A fleeting look of hurt crossed Zhou Zhenghua's eyes.

"He can touch you, but I can't? What did I do wrong to deserve this!"

Gao Qinghe cursed him, "You're crazy."

Turn around and leave.

Zhou Zhenghua's eyes darkened slightly, and he reached out again, grabbing her wrist.

Gao Qinghe tried to shake him off, but failed.

Zhou Zhenghua gripped her wrist tightly with his large hand, veins bulging on the back of his hand, and dragged her aside.

Gao Qinghe shouted angrily, "Let me go! Zhou Zhenghua, do you want to die?!"

She raised her foot to kick him, but he suddenly pulled her and pushed her down onto a haystack in the field.

Gao Qinghe hissed as she struggled to her feet.

Zhou Zhenghua immediately lunged forward.

A seemingly slender yet surprisingly broad chest blocked her way, and a large hand forcefully pressed down on her shoulder.

Gao Qinghe looked up and met the man's deep, scarlet eyes.

He clenched his jaw, veins bulged on his forehead, and his body heaved violently with each breath.

Her sweat-dampened hair trembled, and the corners of her reddened eyes gradually became moist.

The person who has always been ascetic and rigid now looks like a tempting, unripe fruit.

Gao Qinghe swallowed hard, trying to reason with him.

"Zhou Zhenghua, let's pretend the past never happened. From now on, we'll go our separate ways. You go your way and I'll go mine. Let's not get in each other's way."

Zhou Zhenghua lowered his eyes and stared at that unreasonable face, not wanting to hear what she was saying at all.

A surge of emotion he had never felt before welled up inside him, making his heart ache and leaving him unable to distinguish whether it was resentment or affection.

Hatred rose in her flushed eyes.

Zhou Zhenghua suddenly bent down.

Gao Qinghe raised her hand and slapped him across the face!

With a sharp "snap," Zhou Zhenghua turned his head to the side, his eyes still somewhat dazed.

"Secretary Zhou, mind your place!"

Gao Qinghe secretly shook her numb hand while Zhou Zhenghua was in a daze.

She shoved him away and ran!

Blood flowed from the corner of Zhou Zhenghua's mouth.

Watching the agile figure running quickly into the distance, his eyes gradually regained their clarity.

He raised the back of his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, lowered his head in remorse, and said, "I'm sorry."
