Zhou Jinnian looked down to hide the anger in his eyes. He nodded and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I'll give you a satisfactory explanation."
As for why he wanted to give Jiujiu an explanation and what kind of explanation, Zhou Jinnian did not say, and Jiujiu did not ask.
In the adult world, many things would be meaningless if they were too obvious.
He had thought that Jiujiu wanted to develop an unusual relationship with him, but he did not expect her to use him to threaten Wu Xinni.
When Jiujiu was around, Zhou Jinnian could still force a smile and pretend to be gentle. After Jiujiu left, Zhou Jinnian's face was instantly filled with anger.
Bang! A loud noise came from the office.
The assistant hurriedly opened the door. When he saw the anger on Zhou Jinnian's face, he gulped and asked dryly, "Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Jinnian raised his head and glanced at the assistant. He wanted to vent his anger, but he knew that the matter had nothing to do with the assistant. He suppressed his anger and said, "Reschedule tonight's business meeting to tomorrow."
This was the first time Zhou Jinnian had changed the scheduled work. The assistant was stunned. He nodded and said, "Okay."
After work, Zhou Jinnian did not work overtime. He drove straight home.
He parked the car in the underground garage. Instead of getting out of the car, Zhou Jinnian lit a cigarette and smoked slowly.
Zhou Jinnian had always known that Wu Xinni was stupid and self-opinionated.
However, he did not expect Wu Xinni to be so stupid.
It was fine if he had found someone to plot against Jiujiu. He should have found someone smart. However, he had found such a stupid person. Not only did she fail to plot against Jiujiu, but she also saw through his intentions and came to find him.
When he thought of Jiujiu's warning to be careful of Wu Xinni, Zhou Jinnian wished he could become an ostrich and bury his head in the ground.
Ever since he was young, he had never felt so humiliated.
This embarrassment was brought to him by his wife, Wu Xinni.
For the first time in his life, Zhou Jinnian regretted marrying Wu Xinni.
Zhou Jinnian took a deep puff of the cigarette. After a long while, he exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke. He opened the car door, got out of the car, and went upstairs.
After arriving home, the housekeeper immediately came forward and said with a worried face, "Young Master, Madam didn't eat dinner tonight. Is she feeling unwell? Do you want me to call Doctor Wang over to take a look?"
Zhou Jinnian naturally knew where Wu Xinni was feeling unwell.
Thinking of what he was going to say later, he nodded and acquiesced to the housekeeper's action of calling a doctor.
The butler did not know what Zhou Jinnian was thinking. He thought that Zhou Jinnian was simply worried about Wu Xinni, so he immediately called the family doctor.
Zhou Jinnian continued upstairs and pushed open the bedroom door.
Wu Xinni was lying on the bed. She was not asleep. Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling. Due to her weak heart, her breathing was very shallow. If her eyes did not move from time to time, Zhou Jinnian would have thought that she was dead.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Wu Xinni turned her head slightly. After seeing Zhou Jinnian's face, she instantly thought of her scheme against Jiujiu.
If her scheme had succeeded, Wu Xinni might have been proud and even showed off in front of Zhou Jinnian. However, she had not succeeded in her apprenticeship and was seen through by Jiujiu. Wu Xinni was angry and guilty at the same time. When she saw Zhou Jinnian, she unconsciously avoided his eyes. Her voice was also a little softer than usual. "You're back. Why don't you go for dinner?"
Zhou Jinnian pulled a stool and sat by the bed. His black eyes were fixed on Wu Xinni. His eyes were gloomy and full of anger. After a long time, he sneered.
Zhou Jinnian's smile was very light, but Wu Xinni inexplicably became nervous.
Her heart suddenly beat faster, as if something was out of her control. Wu Xinni unconsciously looked at Zhou Jinnian and moved her lips. "Nian."
She wanted to remind Zhou Jinnian that they were husband and wife who grew up together.
Wu Xinni's call of "Nian" did call Zhou Jinnian back to his senses, but it also made Zhou Jinnian think of things that he had not thought of for a long time.
For example, how Wu Xinni forced him to deal with Eighteen.
Zhou Jinnian had been with Eighteen for so many years. Although Zhou Jinnian had been acting all the time, he still had feelings for her.
Even if he wanted to have a child and wanted to separate, he would definitely make it clear to leave Eighteen a way out.
If it were not for Wu Xinni's pressure, he would not have treated Eighteen that way.
New hatred and old hatred surged in Zhou Jinnian's heart. The affection in his eyes when he looked at Wu Xinni was no longer there. The corners of his mouth curled into a sarcastic smile. He said in a sarcastic voice, "You went to see Jiujiu?"
Zhou Jinnian had been in a bad mood since he came back. Wu Xinni felt that Zhou Jinnian was suppressing his anger. Now that Zhou Jinnian said it out, Wu Xinni suddenly felt relieved.
No wonder he looked at her strangely when he came back. It turned out that he wanted to support that little b * tch. Wu Xinni thought that Jiujiu behaved very well in front of her, but she did not expect that Jiujiu would complain to Zhou Jinnian behind his back. She hated Jiujiu even more and said in a harsh tone, "Why? Can't I see her?"
Wu Xinni thought of Jiujiu's gorgeous appearance after she dressed up. She also thought of the cooperation between Zhou Jinnian and Jiujiu. They might have met many times in private. They might have hooked up with each other long ago. The hatred in Wu Xinni's heart gushed out like venom. She could not help but say in a vicious tone, "Or only you can see her, but I can't? Zhou Jinnian, don't forget that without our Wu family, your Zhou family would have gone bankrupt long ago. "
Wu Xinni's words were like a basin of cold water that splashed Zhou Jinnian's face.
Zhou Jinnian's anger dissipated in an instant, but his eyes were filled with a deeper and bottomless coldness.
Zhou Jinnian looked at Wu Xinni in silence. He sneered and said, "Wu Xinni, don't forget that if your Wu family had not abandoned Eighteen, do you really think that your Wu family would have had the chance to help our Zhou family?"
Eighteen was Wu Xinni's sister from the same father and mother. One was healthy, and the other had a congenital disease. Logically speaking, Wu Xinni should be the one who should be abandoned, but the one who was abandoned was Eighteen. Even a blind person could see the problem.
Zhou Jinnian did not say anything, but it did not mean that he did not know.
Since Wu Xinni used what had happened in the past to talk about it, he did not need to save her face.
After all, saving face was mutual. If you were sensible, I would save face for you. If you were not sensible, why should I save face for you?
Zhou Jinnian's words were like an invisible slap on Wu Xinni's face. Wu Xinni was instantly speechless.
Wu Xinni's lips moved, but she could not say a complete sentence for a long time. After a long time, she said, "Do you want to fall out with me?"
Zhou Jinnian smiled and said, "We are already married. You, on the other hand, keep calling me a little b * tch. Those who know you are my wife, but those who don't will think that you are a country bumpkin."
