Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 229 Divorce

"Team leader, this is the work you assigned me to finish. Take a look." Meng Xinyu looked indifferent, slammed the file in front of Yan Zuozuo, and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Yan Zuozuo glanced at the documents on the table and called out to Meng Xinyu.

Meng Xinyu turned around and said irritably, "Is there anything else?"

Just as Yan Zuozuo was about to speak, there was a knock on the office door, and then Cai Keren walked in with a smile on her face. "Team leader, please sign here."

Yan Zuozuo smiled and said, "Stop joking around, just call me Zuozuo."

"You're just saying one thing and meaning another," Meng Xinyu sneered, speaking in a sarcastic tone.

Cai Keren glanced at Meng Xinyu, already knowing this woman was no pushover, but she hadn't expected her to be so arrogant and domineering. She raised an eyebrow, "Zuo Zuo, this is your assistant? Oh, she's disabled. You're so kind."

Meng Xinyu was taken aback, then immediately began to shout, "Who are you calling disabled? Who are you calling disabled? You're the disabled one!"

Cai Keren shrugged innocently: "Did I say something wrong? Their eyes are all on the top of their heads, what else could it be but a disability?"

"you!"

"What about me? Ugh, you even stutter. You're only lucky that Zuo Zuo took you in. Be grateful. I really don't know what's wrong with Fan Hua Design these days. They take in all sorts of cats and dogs." Cai Keren said casually.

"You dare to scold me?"

Cai Keren looked at her amusedly: "I didn't insult you. If you insist on taking it personally, there's nothing I can do."

Meng Xinyu's face turned ashen with anger: "Fine, fine, you're all bullying me, you just wait!" With that, she slammed the door and left. Cai Keren made a face at her and deliberately said loudly, "Who are you throwing a tantrum at? If you don't want to work here, you can get out."

Meng Xinyu was absolutely furious. She stomped angrily into her seat in her high heels. They thought she desperately wanted to work here? If it weren't for needing to find something on Yan Zuozuo, she wouldn't have come even if they begged her. It was infuriating!

Cai Keren closed the office door, immediately changed her tune, and grinned at Yan Zuozuo, "So, my dear Mrs. Chi, did you have a good time last night?"

Yan Zuozuo was taken aback, confused. "What do you mean by 'moisturizing'? What nonsense are you spouting so early in the morning?"

"Hey, stop pretending! I saw President Chi come back when I went to pick him up at the airport yesterday. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, how could it not be wonderful? Tell me, how many times did it?" Cai Keren poked her in a gossipy way.

Yan Zuozuo stiffened, looking at her with a strange expression. "You mean Chi Moqing came back last night?"

"Yeah, and he's got a beautiful girl with him, a secretary, I guess. I'd better watch out, the president and his secretary... tsk tsk, and they're quite pretty..." Cai Keren teased, oblivious to Yan Zuozuo's unusual expression.

Yan Zuozuo smiled awkwardly, signed the document, and said, "Okay, go to work."

"Shy? Looks like President Chi really exhausted you." Cai Keren winked at her ambiguously, then turned and left.

The moment the office door closed, Yan Zuozuo slumped weakly into her chair.

Chi Moqing came back last night, and with a beautiful woman, no less?

His secretary is a man, and she's even met him before, so how could he be a beautiful woman?

She shook her head, secretly not believing that Chi Moqing would betray her. But why did he come back last night but not go home? It had been three whole days, and he hadn't called her once. And at this critical juncture, she really couldn't control herself from overthinking.

She couldn't concentrate on work all morning; her mind was in turmoil, and she couldn't find a reasonable excuse to explain herself to Chi Moqing.

At noon, she had no appetite, but her stomach felt uncomfortable if she didn't eat, so she went to a porridge shop across the street to have a bowl of porridge to tide her over. However, she didn't expect that things would turn out so coincidentally that she would run into Chi Moqing and the beautiful woman Cai Ke had mentioned at the porridge shop.

Actually, the beautiful woman was not unfamiliar to her; she was Tong Shili, whom she had met once before. Standing outside the glass, she saw Tong Shili chatting and laughing, while Chi Moqing nodded from time to time, rarely speaking.

The handsome man and beautiful woman are truly a perfect match.

She stood there, her mind a jumbled mess, a chaotic jumble of thoughts flooding her mind. Even though Chi Moqing had returned, he hadn't gone home. Did he really know what had happened, and now he thought she was dirty, and didn't want to contact her or go home to see her?

Maybe, just maybe he's already planning to get a divorce, but he's too embarrassed to bring it up, so he doesn't go home, waiting for her to take the initiative to leave? Has he already built a love nest with Tong Shili, just waiting for her to make the first move?

Yan Zuozuo felt increasingly agitated the more she thought about it, and the more likely it seemed. She stared at Chi Moqing and Tong Shili interacting, her mind blank, unsure how to react.

She had thought she was prepared to leave, and that seeing Chi Moqing with another woman wouldn't hurt her. However, when it actually happened, she realized just how much pain she was in.

She stood there blankly, not knowing how long she had been standing there, when suddenly, as if possessed, she crossed the road and walked towards the porridge shop. She didn't know what she wanted to do, and walked straight up to Chi Moqing.

Chi Moqing was stunned when he saw Yan Zuozuo. When he met her despairing eyes, his heart clenched suddenly. "Wife?"

Yan Zuozuo pursed her lips, glanced at Tong Shili sitting opposite Chi Moqing, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say. Who was Chi Moqing? He was never short of women. She was just a woman with a stain on her reputation; what right did she have to criticize him?

She looked down, suddenly feeling like she was making a fool of herself. Chi Moqing hadn't even told her he was coming back from his business trip; what was she still hoping for?

She remembered that when Qi Jiahui and He Xinrui got together, she was the last to find out. It wasn't unusual anymore, so why was she being so dramatic and accusing the man of infidelity?

"Wife, are you here for dinner? Sit down, let me introduce you to this Miss Tong..." Chi Moqing reached out to pull her, wanting to explain. But Yan Zuozuo silently pushed his hand away, just standing there, staring blankly at him.

Chi Moqing suddenly seemed to realize something, his heart filled with fear. He tensed up and said in a low voice, "Wife, sit next to me!"

Yan Zuozuo remained motionless, while Tong Shili chuckled, "Mrs. Chi wouldn't be such an insecure person that she doesn't even dare to sit down, would she?"

What a simple and understated statement!

However, those words caused Yan Zuozuo's mind to go blank, and she looked at her with icy eyes. Yes, what right did she have to sit next to Chi Moqing? Those recordings, those photos—hadn't she long since lost that right?

Since she was leaving anyway, leaving before Chi Moqing knew anything about it might leave her with the most beautiful memories. Perhaps this was her chance, perhaps even fate was hinting that she should leave.

Yan Zuozuo smiled blankly: "I am not qualified to sit here. Miss Tong thinks that you are the most qualified, don't you?"

Tong Shili was somewhat embarrassed by Yan Zuozuo's bluntness. She paused for a moment and said, "I was just joking. Why is Madam Chi so petty? Isn't it a bit mean to be so narrow-minded?"

“Yes, I’m not qualified, and I’m petty. I’m certainly not as magnanimous as Miss Tong. Fine, I’ll grant your wish. When it’s convenient for President Chi, come and sign the divorce papers with me, and you two can live happily ever after.” After saying that, Yan Zuozuo turned and left.

She walked away calmly and indifferently, but as soon as she left the porridge shop, she started running wildly, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart. She kept running and running, and she didn't even know how long she ran until she had no strength left. Then she squatted down in a secluded corner, and tears fell like beads from a broken string.

Chi Moqing deserves a better woman, a woman without blemishes, not her, a woman who only makes him a laughingstock and brings him embarrassment.

She knew he loved her deeply and how much he cherished her. But this time was different. What man could accept his wife sleeping in the same bed with another man, having another man change her clothes?

It's time for her to leave. Before her stain affects him any further, she should leave. Although it hurts deeply, and perhaps it will hurt even more later, some things she can bear alone…

Let her be the bad guy alone!

Just as Yan Zuozuo was feeling desperate and heartbroken, her phone rang. It was Chi Moqing calling. She was stunned for a long time before pressing the answer button. Chi Moqing's breathless voice came through the phone, "Wife, where are you?"

"You don't need to worry about where I am. Go back and spend time with Miss Tong. I'll take good care of myself. You...you must be happy..." Her voice choked up, and she quickly covered her mouth, afraid that Chi Moqing would hear her.

"Wife, don't misunderstand, and don't overthink it. I can explain. Come out here, I'll explain it to you right now, okay? Come out!" Chi Moqing said urgently as he searched for her.

Yan Zuozuo bit her lip and remained silent, only curling up on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.

It hurts so much, her heart aches so much!

Just thinking about giving up on Chi Moqing, leaving him, and never seeing him again made her feel like she couldn't breathe.

She squatted on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, when suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of her. She was startled and looked up to meet Chi Moqing's tense eyes.

“Wife…” He squatted down beside her and reached out to wipe away the tears on her face.

Yan Zuozuo bit her lip and brushed his hand away. Chi Moqing reached out again, and she brushed it away once more. After several attempts, Chi Moqing simply pulled her into his arms, and she could even feel his trembling body.

"Wife, I was wrong, please don't be angry, okay?" Chi Moqing said in a muffled voice.

Yan Zuozuo didn't know what was wrong with her. Just being held by Chi Moqing made her feel incredibly wronged. An overwhelming sense of grievance washed over her, almost drowning her. Suddenly, she started hitting him, repeatedly striking his back while sobbing.

She was like a wronged child, hitting him repeatedly, "Chi Moqing, I hate you, I despise you, you bastard, you're awful, I never want to live with you again..."

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I'm a bastard, I'm awful. I apologize to my wife, but please don't leave me. I'll change, okay?" Chi Moqing said weakly.

Yan Zuozuo just cried, cried and cried, sobbing uncontrollably. She cried for a long, long time before finally stopping her sobs, looking at him with teary eyes, "When did you get back?"

Chi Moqing was taken aback. Since his wife asked this, she must know the truth; no wonder she was so angry. He reached out and wiped away her tears, sighing involuntarily, "Yesterday afternoon..."

That's really honest!

"Have you been with Miss Tong the whole time?" she asked, sniffing.

Chi Moqing looked embarrassed. How was he supposed to answer that?

"I knew it... you betrayed me, you bastard, I want a divorce!" Yan Zuozuo accused, tears streaming down her face again.

"No!" Chi Moqing roared, pulling her tightly into his arms. "Yan Zuozuo, I'm warning you, from now on, you're not allowed to say those two words to me again!"
