Zhu Jiangci had long known that Su Qiao An was going to pick Li Quan up.

So he did not go to the company, but waited at home. He wanted to see when Su Qiao An would return.

She returned home earlier than he expected. Seeing her enter the house, Zhu Jiangci asked, "Why are you back so early?"

"I'm just going to pick someone up, not a date. How late am I going to be back?" She rolled her eyes at Zhu Jiangci. If she didn't understand what this man was thinking, then she would really be an idiot. "If I return too late, would you be happy?"

This man usually left for the company at this time of the day, but today he was still staying at home as usual.

When she went out, Zhu Jiangci had no intention to leave.

Just like this, if she still didn't know what Zhu Jiangci was thinking, then her reaction would be too slow.

"Why am I unhappy? You're just seeing a friend. "

"Heh." She sneered. "You also know that I'm only going to see a friend. You're so nervous, how can you not believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but that I don't believe in myself." He confessed his thoughts.

He finally knew what it was like to be alone at home, alone, with no one in the house to accompany him, and no one to listen to what he was about to say.

He yearned to see the sky outside, but he didn't know what he would do if he went out.

Was Su Qiao An's life like this?

Every day, he would linger around in endless anticipation, with no end in sight and no path to escape.

It had only been a few hours, and he couldn't bear it.

This was how she spent every single day during the months when Su Qiao An was pregnant.

Zhu Jiangci vaguely saw her sitting by the window and staring blankly out of the window. Not only did he not respect and care for her, he even brought her home when she was pregnant.

It was more despair than disappointment.

"You can do whatever you want in the future. I won't stop you." He no longer wished to lock Su Qiao An in a sealed off space and watch her wither.

"Mr. Chu, it can't be that you chose to ruin everything just because I said so, right? "Don't force yourself, it's still too late for you to take back what you just said." She didn't believe in Zhu Jiangci.

If Zhu Jiangci was really so easy to talk to, she wouldn't have to stay at home and do nothing for a few months.

"I'm speaking the truth. I know that the life you wish to lead is not just to be a vase at home. You can do whatever you want and I won't stop you." Worst case scenario, he would just have to trouble himself and have more snacks to look at her.

Su Qiao An stared at him for a moment, then chuckled: "This is what you said, don't regret it."

"No regrets."

She nodded and threw her bag onto the sofa. Then, she sat down on the sofa as well, "What are you still standing there for?" You don't need to go to work at the company? "

"Not today." Since she was back, and Fu Yanzhi had gone to school, it was a rare opportunity for the two of them to be in a different world, so he naturally had to make the best of it.

Su Qiao An pinched her shoulder, her eyebrows knitted slightly.

Seeing that, Zhu Jiangci sat down beside her, gently massaging her neck and shoulders, "Is it sore on your neck?"

"I think so. I don't know if it's because I didn't sleep well last night, but I've been feeling a bit uncomfortable since I woke up this morning." She had her back facing Zhu Jiangci, and was enjoying his massage service.

After thinking for a moment, he continued, "I've met Li Quan. He seems to be more haggard than before he left." She didn't know how to explain it, but she felt that Li Quan seemed to have a lot of things on his mind after coming back this time.

Although he had confessed to her what he had to do when he returned, but …

She felt very uneasy.

This uneasiness came from god knows where, and was purely because Li Quan seemed to have something to tell him.

"Is there something on your mind?" Zhu Jiangci asked.

She froze for a moment, then shook her head, "It's not that I have something on my mind, but I feel that Li Quan is trying to do something that might harm himself."

It was a strange feeling, and she couldn't figure out why.

Even though Li Quan had a mischievous smile on his face, she still felt that something was amiss after just a short ten minutes.

"Li Quan is a normal grown man. He knows how to protect himself."

"That's what I say, but there are times when people can't do anything about it. I can't do anything about it, can there? Li Quan, he... " He really didn't look too good.

Was it because of his grandfather? She remembered that Li Quan had said that his grandfather was an extremely tyrannical and arbitrary person, so how could such a person tolerate the disobedience of one of her subordinates?

"Do you think that in the eyes of someone with absolute control, there are no feelings of kinship and other emotions?" All they needed was an obedient puppet. They didn't need any family members.

"No matter how selfish a person is, there will always be a soft, soft, and untouchable feeling in the bottom of their heart." Zhu Jiangci held onto her shoulder, and answered with a deep voice, "Let's see if you can find his weakness then."

There must be a reason behind why no one can be unstoppable, whether it is selfish or cold. As long as the right medicine is applied to the patient, all pretense will cease to exist.

He was the one who thought things through, and wanted to reveal Su Qiao An's identity to the public so that he could explain himself. She was never the type of person they were talking about.

He almost forgot, if he did that, he would only push Su Qiao An to the extent of never being able to recover from it.

If he was so arrogant as to expose his weak point in front of the eyes of the world, it was very likely that those with intentions would try to do her in.

If that day came, he would never be able to stay calm as he had been when she was kidnapped.

"What is your weakness? Your brother? " She remembered that whenever she mentioned her brother, Zhu Jiangci's emotions would change slightly.

"No."

"Eh — isn't it?" Su Qiao An turned around and looked at him, "I thought your brother was your weak spot, I remember you two brothers had a good relationship with each other."

"Stop guessing randomly, are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat, eh? " As he spoke, he pinched her nose.

Su Qiao An slapped his hand away and rubbed the bridge of her nose that was hurting. She realized that Zhu Jiangci really liked to move her hands and feet, either pinching her face or pinching her nose, and either pinching her nose or pulling her ears.

"I'm not hungry."

Just as she finished speaking, a rumbling sound came from her stomach.

Su Qiao An subconsciously covered her stomach, her face slightly red.

"Not hungry?" Zhu Jiangci was in an extremely good mood as he went forward, "Your stomach is already protesting, Mrs. Chu really knows how to speak lies with his eyes open."

She raised her hand to push away the face that was right in front of her.

Zhu Jiangci took her hand, and kissed her palm with extreme gentleness and care, "Just wait obediently, I'll go cook."
