PFC Chapter 55 Are you jealous?
Chapter 55 Are you jealous?
Upon hearing Zhu Ziqing's question, Tan Haoyu felt a surge of dissatisfaction.
Without hesitation, he reached out and gently cupped Zhu Ziqing's head, then kissed her passionately once more.
This time, his kiss carried a hint of domineering, as if declaring his loyalty to Zhu Ziqing.
Tan Haoyu stared intently at Zhu Ziqing, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
His voice trembled slightly, carrying a hint of undisguised pain: "You really don't trust me that much?"
Looking into Tan Haoyu's affectionate eyes, Zhu Ziqing's heart was in turmoil, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Her mind involuntarily conjured up those scandalous photos of Tan Haoyu and Aimee, and she began to have deep suspicions about Tan Haoyu's behavior.
However, when she saw Tan Haoyu's sincere expression, she couldn't help but think that perhaps she was overthinking things.
However, the painful experience of being betrayed by Wan Qingsha in the past is like a deep scar that constantly pierces her heart.
She was afraid—afraid that history would repeat itself, afraid that she would once again fall into endless pain and despair.
In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, and to stop the losses in time before I get too deeply involved and have too many attachments.
Zhu Ziqing gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
Zhu Ziqing took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
She spoke in a rational and clear-headed tone:
Tan Haoyu, I have to admit that I do lack trust in you.
Our marriage had no emotional foundation; it was a hasty union from the very beginning.
I know this might sound hurtful, but it's the truth.
Although her voice was calm, her heart was in turmoil.
Looking at the almost perfect man before her, she felt a pang of regret.
Hearing Zhu Ziqing's blunt and cold words, Tan Haoyu felt a surge of anger that instantly engulfed him like a raging fire. His eyes widened, filled with disappointment and rage as he stared at Zhu Ziqing.
Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Zhu Ziqing's head tightly, then kissed her fiercely without hesitation.
The force was so great that it even bit Zhu Ziqing's lip until it bled.
He sucked her blood like a vampire out of control.
The tense and exciting atmosphere seemed to freeze the air in the entire room.
Zhu Ziqing endured the excruciating pain in her lips.
There was no fear in her eyes; she remained calm.
She gently pushed Tan Haoyu away, looked him straight in the eyes, and said firmly:
Tan Haoyu, doing this won't solve anything.
We need to face all of this head-on, not run away from it.
I want a clear answer from you, instead of this kind of confrontation.
Looking at Zhu Ziqing's calm, almost indifferent attitude, Tan Haoyu's anger grew even stronger.
He was trembling with anger and shouted, "Zhu Ziqing, how can you be so calm? Don't you take my words to heart? Have you forgotten our agreement?"
After saying that, he coldly left those words behind and strode towards his study.
Zhu Ziqing was left standing there blankly.
Zhu Ziqing stared blankly at Tan Haoyu's departing figure for a long while.
She suddenly recalled what Tan Haoyu had told her shortly after their marriage: "In this marriage, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we should not easily suggest breaking up, because it will be a deep hurt to both of us."
She began to ask herself repeatedly, "Am I really overthinking things?"
Perhaps the figure in that rumored photo just happened to resemble Tan Haoyu.
Yet the details in the photo are so real.
She was caught in a deep dilemma and confusion, not knowing what to do next.
Zhu Ziqing watched Tan Haoyu's angry departure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
She slowly took out her phone, her fingers trembling slightly as she tapped the Weibo icon.
She decided to double-check whether the figure in the scandalous photo was indeed Tan Haoyu.
Zhu Ziqing clearly remembers that Aimee's gossip entertainment news was the top trending topic that morning, firmly occupying the number one spot on the hot list, and her colleagues in the office were discussing it enthusiastically.
But now, when she enters relevant keywords into the search bar...
To everyone's surprise, Aimee's entertainment news had vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared on Weibo.
Zhu Ziqing frowned deeply, her heart filled with confusion.
She muttered to herself, "What's going on? Did I see it wrong this morning?"
She began to wonder if she was hallucinating because she was too nervous and concerned.
Just then, Tan Haoyu's cell phone, which was on the desk in his study, rang urgently.
He picked up his phone and saw that it was Yang Piaoliang calling, so he quickly answered.
On the other end of the phone, Yang Piaoliang's voice came through clearly: "President Tan, Aimee Tan Xiaoxuan's entertainment scandal has been cleaned up by our Sunshine Group, and there will be no further negative impact."
Tan Haoyu was slightly taken aback after hearing this.
He immediately realized that he had been tricked by that girl Tan Xiaoxuan.
However, he soon understood why Zhu Ziqing had misunderstood him.
After hanging up the phone, Tan Haoyu slowly walked out of the study.
He walked straight up to Zhu Ziqing, noticing that she was still holding her phone, and asked with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, "Did you misunderstand me because you saw Aimee's entertainment news?"
Zhu Ziqing raised her head, looked directly into Tan Haoyu's eyes, and asked suspiciously, "Is the male protagonist in that scandalous photo really you?"
Tan Haoyu sighed softly and patiently explained, "It wasn't me. The girl in the scandal, Aimee, is actually my younger sister, Tan Xiaoxuan. She's always mischievous, and she must have deliberately created this scandal to annoy me. I didn't expect you to misunderstand."
After Tan Haoyu finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Ziqing and suddenly asked, "Are you so concerned about this because you're jealous?"
Zhu Ziqing's face turned bright red, down to her ears.
She lowered her head awkwardly, nodded sheepishly, and admitted, "Yes, I misunderstood you. I felt very upset when I saw the photo."
Zhu Ziqing suddenly realized what was going on.
She realized that she had doubted Tan Haoyu because of a misunderstanding and had said so many hurtful things.
She felt incredibly ashamed.
She slowly approached Tan Haoyu, gently nestled in his arms, and held him tightly with both hands.
But she never dared to look him in the eye.
Tan Haoyu gently stroked Zhu Ziqing's back and comforted her tenderly, "Silly girl, I know you're suspicious of me because you've been hurt before, and you're afraid of being hurt again. I don't blame you."
