Chapter 224: I Am Your Wife, Not Your Prisoner

 

Can’t go out?

Zhuang Nai Nai widens her eyes in surprise, “Why?”

“No reason, really,” he replies in a final tone.

That man is simply unbearable and unreasonable!

Zhuang Nai Nai’s chest heaves heavily out of anger.  She just got reprimanded by his employee because of the phone call that he made which broke the rule that he instated, and now this?!

“But I already promised someone else!” Zhuang Nai Nai angrily replies.

Before Si Zheng Ting even get to reply, Zhuang Nai Nai lowers her voice and whispers, “I am your wife, not your prisoner.”

Her voice is low and full of grievance.

That one sentence from her blocks all the incoming words that Si Zheng Ting was about to say.

He could just imagine Zhuang Nai Nai saying that, with a reluctant and aggrieved expression.

She is very rich in expression, she must be wrinkling her nose in distaste right now, looking so cute.

Si Zheng Ting’s mood inexplicably becomes better.

The Arrogant Master begins having second thoughts- is he being too much?

And so, he says, “Where are you planning to go to, anyway?”

Zhuang Nai Nai can sense him lightening up by the tone of his voice.  She quickly says, “Nowhere!  I promised to treat my senior to a hotpot dinner in Hai Di Lao Restaurant in front of the company!”

Since Zhuang Nai Nai is being honest and direct, she probably does not have any impure intention towards that senior of hers.

Si Zheng Ting calms down a little, but promptly becomes irritated again when the image of Zhuang Nai Nai and that Senior dining together resurfaces in his mind.

He could not bring himself to agree, but could not bring himself to forbid her from going as well.

He remains quiet.

His silence made Zhuang Nai Nai very excited, “Then, that’s settled.  You go home without me.  Don’t forget to eat dinner.  I will go home after dinner with Senior.  See you at home!”

When she says ‘home’, the annoyance in Si Zheng Ting’s heart disappears.

Right, they are married, what is there to be worried about?

Besides, wouldn’t he appear petty and evil if he stops her from going out?

In the end, he cannot bring himself to say anything, and so, instead of saying anything, he calls Ji Chen over to do something.

Ji Chen: …… Sir, toying with the madam like this is not very good……

Zhuang Nai Nai sits uneasily on her seat.  She sends a message to Su Jin Hui, confirming today’s dinner.

He takes that chance to chat with her, ‘How is your day?’

Zhuang Nai Nai looks around the empty office before sighing.  To tell the truth, she does not want to lose this job.  Although she has only been here for a short while, she enjoys working here.

Di Hao Group is a big company with a lot of employees.  She can learn a lot here.  Besides, she is working on the same floor as the Fashion Department, there is the possibility of her getting transferred there anytime in the future.

If she leaves this place like this, she might really get stuck with working on Site Designing after this.

She hesitates for a moment before complaining to Su Jin Hui, ‘Is one really in trouble if they left their phone on during a meeting?”

She has read the company’s regulations before and this does not seem to be a very grave matter.

Su Jin Hui’s reply comes really quick, ‘I’m sorry.  I forgot that you would be in a meeting.  I’m sorry for sending that message to you.  This is just a small thing, I will take care of this matter, don’t worry.
