Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 230 Should I Confess?

Yan Zuozuo felt that Chi Moqing definitely wanted to murder her so that he could marry Tong Shili. The way he hugged her was practically killing her. She tried to push him away, but he only held her tighter.

She felt like she could barely breathe, and bit him hard on the shoulder. "Are you trying to suffocate me?"

Chi Moqing was startled by the pain and quickly loosened his grip, but still didn't let go of her. He pursed his lips, deciding to be honest, "I met Tong Shili while I was abroad, and then we flew back together..."

Yan Zuozuo felt a pang of jealousy and muttered to herself, "What a coincidence."

Chi Moqing smiled wryly, lowered his head, kissed her lips, and said, "I had a terrible stomachache as soon as I got off the plane. Later, my assistant and Miss Tong took me to the hospital. When she came to see me at noon, I was just about to be discharged. She asked me to treat her to a meal as a thank you gift, and I agreed. And then, as you saw..." As if worried that Yan Zuozuo would misunderstand, he blurted it all out in one breath, then stared intently at her, "Wife, that's how it is. I really didn't lie. Please don't be angry, okay?" He looked at Yan Zuozuo with pitiful eyes, afraid that she would misunderstand.

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback and looked at him nervously. "Your stomach hurts again? How are you now? Has the doctor discharged you? Why didn't you call me?" As she spoke, she touched Chi Moqing's stomach.

Chi Moqing smiled and said, "It's probably because the food on the plane was too hard and made your stomach upset. You'll be fine after the IV drip, so don't worry." Seeing that her face had turned pale with anxiety, he quickly reassured her.

"Really?" Yan Zuozuo looked at him suspiciously. "No, I'm not comfortable with that. You have to come to the hospital with me for a checkup."

Chi Moqing smiled wryly, finding his wife utterly adorable. One second she was saying she wanted a divorce, and the next she was concerned about his health. He hugged her tightly, took a long breath, and said, "Wife, I'll do whatever you say, just don't leave me, not even by saying it!"

Yan Zuozuo bit her lip, feeling a little sad. That's because you don't know what happened yet. When you find out, husband, will you still be so determined to have me?

At Yan Zuozuo's insistence, Chi Moqing went to the hospital for a full check-up. The doctor explained the precautions he should take and said that everything else was fine. Yan Zuozuo finally breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Chi Moqing tightly. She had been really scared when he told her that he was hospitalized for stomach problems, worried that it was the same as before, that he had stomach bleeding.

Now that she was sure he was alright, she finally felt relieved. She nestled into Chi Moqing's arms and said seriously, "From now on, drink less alcohol and eat on time, do you hear me!"

"I heard you, but my wife has to keep an eye on me all the time, otherwise I'll be very undisciplined," Chi Moqing said jokingly when he saw Yan Zuozuo's mood brighten.

Yan Zuozuo rolled her eyes, but a hint of sadness quickly flashed in her eyes. "Even if I'm not by your side, you have to take care of yourself. You still have your parents and our baby. You are the pillar of the family. You must not fall down because of a fit of anger..." She became more and more upset as she spoke, and her eyes reddened slightly.

Chi Moqing stared at her sad face, narrowed his eyes, and lifted her chin to ask, "Wife, is something on your mind?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, then quickly shook her head, before putting on a smile and saying, "I don't have anything on my mind. I'm just angry that you don't take care of yourself. Listen to me carefully, whether I'm by your side or not, you have to take good care of yourself!"

Chi Moqing felt that Yan Zuozuo was acting strangely, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He suppressed his confusion and smiled, saying, "I refuse to accept it. If my wife dares to leave me, I will abuse myself and your son. I don't believe you won't feel sorry for me and will be willing to leave us."

Yan Zuozuo was stunned, her eyes reddening even more. "How could you be so awful? I'm telling you, you're not allowed to! If you dare to do this, I'll torture myself in front of you and see if you feel sorry for me."

Chi Moqing laughed heartily, affectionately pinching her nose, "As long as neither of us leaves the other, and neither of us mistreats the other, isn't that enough?"

Yan Zuozuo remained silent, throwing herself into his arms, her heart aching terribly.

After a while, she climbed out of his arms, as if she had thought of something, and asked in a panic, "You just came out like this? What about Miss Tong?"

Chi Moqing looked at her amusedly: "What do you mean, 'what to do'? Do you really want to give me to her and wish us happiness?" He said through gritted teeth, biting her earlobe hard. "Wife, we'll have some scores to settle when we get home!"

Yan Zuozuo flinched, thinking, "I'm doomed!"

The car quickly stopped in front of the villa. Chi Moqing insisted on carrying her out of the car, but Yan Zuozuo was naturally embarrassed and refused righteously.

Chi Moqing's face showed a hint of sorrow: "Wife, I haven't seen you for half a month. I miss you so much. Let me hug you a little longer."

During the days he didn't sleep with Yan Zuozuo in his arms, he suffered from insomnia almost every night. Even when he occasionally fell asleep, he would wake up very quickly. After more than ten days, he was severely sleep-deprived.

Yan Zuozuo looked up and saw the deep darkness in his eyes. Her heart softened, and she reached out to help him out of the car. Nestled in Chi Moqing's arms, she finally felt a precious sense of security and warmth.

But his love for her will soon be over, won't it? Once he finds out what happened, he'll probably leave her.

Because she loved him, she left without hesitation.

In the bedroom, the passion had just subsided, and Yan Zuozuo lay in Chi Moqing's arms, closing her eyes to enjoy his tenderness.

"Wife, I'm sorry. I didn't think things through and made you suffer..." Chi Moqing gently stroked her face again and again. Just thinking about how sad Yan Zuozuo looked just now made his heart ache.

Yan Zuozuo shook her head, feeling guilty. "It's all because I was too petty. Miss Tong helped you a lot, and I treated her like that. I'll apologize to her in person next time I invite her to dinner."

Chi Moqing tightened his grip on her arm: "No need. I like it when you're stingy with me. It lets me know that my wife cares about me. It's my fault. I'll be more careful in the future."

Will they even have a future?

Yan Zuozuo felt a pang of sorrow in her heart. She wished Chi Moqing wouldn't treat her so well, otherwise, she would only feel more heartbroken when he left.

Just as Yan Zuozuo was drifting off to sleep, the phone rang. Chi Moqing kissed her forehead and said, "You go to sleep first, I'll go out to answer this call."

Yan Zuozuo nodded, turned over, and drifted off to sleep again. Not only had Chi Moqing not slept well these past few days, but she hadn't slept well at all without him. Now that he was finally back, she wanted to get a good night's sleep.

The call was from Chi's mother, whose tone was very unpleasant. Chi Moqing frowned as she listened to what she said, and finally said, "I understand. I will go back with Zuo Zuo after get off work tomorrow."

He hung up the phone, climbed back into bed, and pulled Yan Zuozuo into his arms. His complicated eyes were fixed on her, and he didn't sleep a wink all night.

The next day after get off work, Chi Moqing and Yan Zuozuo went home. As soon as they entered the door, Yan Zuozuo felt a gloomy and oppressive atmosphere. Her heart tightened. Could it be that the secret had been exposed?

Mrs. Chi sat on the sofa with a tense expression, while Mr. Chi remained the same, leisurely sipping his tea. They placed the gifts on the table and greeted each other respectfully, "Dad, Mom."

Chi's mother asked them to sit down, then looked at Yan Zuozuo with displeasure and asked bluntly, "Zuozuo, did you go to report the case?"

Yan Zuozuo's heart tightened, and she bit her lip, saying, "Yes, Mom."

"Then why didn't you tell me you were coming back?"

Yan Zuozuo shrank back slightly: "This isn't a good thing. I was thinking, I shouldn't let Mom worry..."

"Is it because you don't want me to worry, or are you afraid I'll protect Xinyu?" Chi's mother pressed, her eyes filled with disappointment as she looked at Yan Zuozuo. Yan Zuozuo's heart skipped a beat. "Mom, I really didn't mean that..."

Yan Zuozuo was surprised that not only did Chi's mother know, but she also had such thoughts. She was flustered and at a loss, not knowing how to explain.

Seeing that she didn't seem surprised, Chi Moqing quickly said, "Yes, Mom, how could Zuo Zuo have such thoughts? You're overthinking it. Besides, telling you this won't help, will it? In the end, we'll just have to bother the police anyway." He held Yan Zuo Zuo's hand, comforting her.

Chi's mother was angry, feeling that Yan Zuozuo had distanced herself from her. Although she was somewhat biased towards Meng Xinyu, she could still distinguish right from wrong on such important issues. She could not possibly protect Meng Xinyu without any bottom line.

Seeing that her mother was angry, Yan Zuozuo lowered her head and quickly apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't think things through and ignored your feelings. But I really didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry, Mom."

"You..." Mrs. Chi, who was always impulsive, opened her mouth, about to speak, but then she heard Mr. Chi say, "I also think Zuo Zuo doesn't have that intention. Don't you know what kind of person she is and what kind of personality she has? Did someone say something that upset you?"

Mrs. Chi's expression changed, a hint of guilt in her eyes. She had indeed received a call from her sister yesterday, saying that Yan Zuozuo had done something shameful and even called the police, causing Xinyu to be taken away by the police for questioning. Adding fuel to the fire, she added that avoiding her was either a sign of a guilty conscience or a lack of trust in her as her mother-in-law…

In short, Ula Ula said a lot, which made Chi's mother suspicious, so she called them back for questioning. But now, seeing everyone protecting Yan Zuozuo, she thought about it carefully and realized it made sense. After being with her daughter-in-law for so long, what was there to distrust? She was truly furious.

She paused for a moment, then said, "Zuo Zuo, don't be angry with your mother. If something happens and you don't come back to tell us, but go directly to the police, your mother will inevitably overthink it. Don't take it to heart."

She is able to admit her mistakes and correct them; that's just her nature.

Yan Zuozuo quickly shook her head, bit her lip, and said, "Actually, it's all my fault. If I hadn't accidentally caused this, there wouldn't have been so many misunderstandings. Mom and Dad, I'm sorry, I've made you worry again."

Chi's mother smiled and said, "We're all family, so let's not talk like family. But tell us what really happened. With your parents backing you up, let's see who dares to bully you."

Yan Zuozuo was stunned, her face turning deathly pale. Did she really have to tell the truth?

Chi Moqing noticed her unusual behavior and frowned slightly. It seemed that quite a lot had happened while he was away. He turned to his mother and said, "Mom, let me talk to Zuo Zuo about this ourselves. If there's anything we can't resolve, then we can trouble you and Dad."

Seeing Yan Zuozuo's uncomfortable look and Chi Moqing's protective expression, Chi's mother paused for a moment and said, "Alright, you two deal with it first. If it really doesn't work, you must tell me and your father. I want to see who dares to bully my daughter-in-law."

"Okay, don't worry." Chi Moqing smiled and took Yan Zuozuo's hand, leading her towards the bedroom.

Yan Zuozuo was very flustered. She knew very well what Chi Moqing meant by taking her to the bedroom, but she didn't know whether she should confess or not. She was in a state of panic and her heart was pounding.

Upon entering the bedroom, the moment Chi Moqing closed the door, she felt a chill run through her body.
