Chapter 1212: Chapter 1212

"Did you do anything else?" Leng Ruobing continued to ask.

Seeing Leng Ruobing’s expression, Xiao Zheng immediately confirmed that she must have found out he had been out with Liu Han Yan earlier. Luckily, he had told the truth; otherwise, he didn’t know how she would react.

But what Xiao Zheng didn’t expect was that even after telling the truth, Leng Ruobing’s face remained icy cold to the extreme.

"I didn’t do anything else," Xiao Zheng said, looking innocent.

"Heh... men." Leng Ruobing sneered after hearing that, refusing to even acknowledge Xiao Zheng, and directly turned around to return to her bedroom.

Seeing that Leng Ruobing was indeed angry, Xiao Zheng had no choice but to quickly follow her, hoping to explain.

Just as Leng Ruobing was about to close her door, Xiao Zheng rushed in.

"Get out," Leng Ruobing said coldly.

"Don’t be mad, listen to my explanation, I really didn’t do anything," Xiao Zheng hurriedly pleaded.

Leng Ruobing looked up at Xiao Zheng and coldly said, "I’ll give you one more chance to speak honestly. Are you sure you didn’t do anything?"

Xiao Zheng thought about it and realized he really didn’t do anything, so he nodded confidently, "Really, I didn’t do anything."

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Ruobing pushed Xiao Zheng out and slammed the door shut, locking it.

Outside the door, Xiao Zheng was completely at a loss, not understanding the situation. He knocked again, attempting to explain to Zhang Zhiwei, but Leng Ruobing wouldn’t give him any chance. No matter how he knocked, she remained silent inside.

With no other options, Xiao Zheng returned to his bedroom. Noticing he reeked of alcohol, he decided to wash up before sleeping. But as soon as he reached the bathroom, his expression changed slightly.

In the mirror, Xiao Zheng noticed his face, neck, and even his white shirt were covered in red lip marks.

Black lines appeared on his forehead as he realized why Leng Ruobing had repeatedly asked him if he had done anything else.

These marks were left by Liu Han Yan earlier. She had been kissing him randomly, and although she hadn’t taken advantage of him or removed his clothes, the lip marks were definitely all over him.

With a long sigh, Xiao Zheng felt utterly speechless. He truly hadn’t done anything, yet now he seemed to be misunderstood by Leng Ruobing.

He wondered if he could tell Leng Ruobing that he was passively forced, being held down and kissed by Liu Han Yan, and whether she would believe it.

Even though he knew she wouldn’t believe him even if he explained, if he said nothing, the misunderstanding would never be cleared.

With no other choice, Xiao Zheng went to Leng Ruobing’s room again, knocking on the door and saying, "Open the door and let me explain."

There was still no response from inside, and it was obvious she was very angry, giving him no chance to explain.

"I know you’re misunderstanding because of the lip marks on me, which I can explain. You must listen to me, just one sentence," Xiao Zheng vowed at the door.

After speaking, there was still no reaction from Leng Ruobing. Xiao Zheng sighed deeply and decided to return to his bedroom. But just as he turned to leave, the door in front of him clicked open from the inside.

Leng Ruobing’s icy face appeared before Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zhen’s face lit up, as Leng Ruobing finally gave him a chance to explain. Just as he was about to speak, Leng Ruobing said first, "Actually, you don’t need to explain your private life to me. I’m not interested at all, but since this is my villa, I hope you’ll be more discreet."

"Discreet... what?" Xiao Zheng was surprised, looking at Leng Ruobing in confusion.

"I’ve said before, we’re only in a contract marriage, I don’t care about your private life, but please, don’t be so blatant," Leng Ruobing said before turning back into her room, slamming the door shut, leaving Xiao Zheng outside.

Xiao Zheng stood awkwardly at the door. Just when things seemed to be turning around, they immediately reverted back.

Leaning against the door, Leng Ruobing also looked displeased. Xiao Zheng’s actions in her eyes were simply too frivolous.

Since then, Xiao Zheng didn’t manage to say anything, and Leng Ruobing wouldn’t give him another chance to explain, so he had no choice but to return to his own room.

Come early the next morning. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the n0velfire.net

Xiao Zheng opened his room door, wanting to check on Leng Ruobing’s mood, but when he reached her door, he realized she seemed to have already left.

Usually, Leng Ruobing would leave early for work, but never this early. To Xiao Zheng, it seemed she didn’t want to see him. Helpless, Xiao Zheng sighed, thinking it would be best to give her some time.

As he walked downstairs to the living room, through the large villa yard, Xiao Zheng noticed a black car parked at the entrance, with some familiar faces beside it.

Among them, one guy was immediately recognizable to Xiao Zheng even from a distance. Wasn’t that Fan Longzhou from yesterday?

Thinking it over, Xiao Zheng stepped out of the villa to the entrance.

He clearly remembered injuring Fan Longzhou yesterday, crushing his shoulder blade with one hand, and now his right hand was in a cast and sling.

Seeing Xiao Zheng, the memories of yesterday’s searing pain and soul-deep fear rushed back to Fan Longzhou’s mind.

His expression was not pleasant, but seeing Xiao Zheng approach, he mustered the courage, stepped forward, bowed to Xiao Zheng, and said, "I’m truly sorry for yesterday’s events."

"Spare me the nonsense, why are you here?" Xiao Zheng asked coldly, showing no kindness to him.

In front of him stood a member of the Fan Family, and it was Old Man Fan who had angered Liu Han Yan yesterday. Xiao Zheng had no reason to be polite to someone from that family.

"Um... yesterday was a misunderstanding. I’m here today for another matter," Fan Longzhou said, still with a troubled expression, glancing fearfully at Xiao Zheng.
