The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 652: Chapter 652: Stuff her into the car!_1

Chai Xiyang sat beside her, but she simply had no interest in speaking, and felt rather uncomfortable.

Despite this, he stubbornly remained seated next to her, occasionally exchanging a few words with the others.

“Qiao Ning, do you have a boyfriend?” a female scriptwriter suddenly asked her.

Qiao Ning was taken aback and shyly shook her head, “No…”

Everyone seemed surprised, “You’re so beautiful, and you don’t have a boyfriend?”

“Yeah, I don’t…” Qiao Ning responded awkwardly.

“How about I introduce you to someone, I know a guy…”

“I could introduce you to someone too…”

Everyone seemed to be quite drunk and enthusiastically playing matchmaker. Qiao Ning was stuck in the middle, torn between refusing and accepting their suggestions.

Then, she caught sight of Chai Xiyang’s mocking gaze.

It was as if he was making fun of their ignorance about her past, their futile worries.

It was as if he was mocking her for not deserving their attentions…

At that, Qiao Ning’s mood instantly turned gloomy!

Her past was unknown to everyone. Although she had done nothing wrong, her past was still too unpleasant.

Qiao Ning thought to herself that she was unworthy of any new relationships.

But Chai Xiyang’s mockery made her feel choked.

When another scriptwriter offered to introduce her to someone, as if on a whim, she suddenly nodded in agreement, “Okay, I’ll meet him then.”

The look in Chai Xiyang’s eyes slightly faltered.

Qiao Ning didn’t notice his reaction, but she wanted to prove that she didn’t view herself as despicable or inferior. She was capable of leading a normal life!

Though she couldn’t shake off the feeling that, for the rest of the evening, Chai Xiyang’s mood seemed to darken…

But then again, he had always appeared gloomy in her presence, so Qiao Ning had grown accustomed to it.

Finally, the meal ended and everyone prepared to leave.

Everyone exited the restaurant, sharing farewells. Each one of them had a car to go back except for Qiao Ning.

“Qiao Ning, where do you live? Someone convenient could drop you,” someone kindly offered.

“It’s okay, I can take a taxi…”

Utilizing his authority as the boss, Chai Xiyang declared, “I should be on her way. You all can go back first, I’ll drop her off.”

Everyone took his statement at face value, assuming the boss was simply offering a co-worker a ride.

After all, Chai Xiyang’s girlfriend was so beautiful and outstanding, they were confident he wouldn’t be interested in Qiao Ning.

Only Chen Shuinan knew the real reason he would be dropping off Qiao Ning.

Because they were relatives…

Chen Shuinan quickly drove off, and the others left too. All that remained were Qiao Ning and Chai Xiyang standing by the roadside.

Qiao Ning ignored him and went to hail a taxi…

Her hand had barely extended, when he suddenly seized it!

Caught off guard and slightly unsteady, Qiao Ning was yanked towards his car, as he opened the door and tugged her.

“Get in—” he ordered coldly.

Completely taken aback, Qiao Ning stared at him quite bewildered and asked, “What are you doing?”

Chai Xiyang casually replied, “Of course, I’m taking you home!”

“No need, I can take a cab…” Qiao Ning attempted to pass him but was met with his gloomy gaze. Swiftly, without another word, he thrust her into the car!

“Ah… What are you…” Qiao Ning tumbled in, letting out a surprised cry!

But all that responded to her was the sound of the car’s door forcibly slamming shut!
