Chapter 260 - Taken Fancy To Him

Du Zeng couldn't understand why Long Jie would marry her. She was a tigress sure, but men didn't need a tigress as a wife but a coy and delicate woman they would want to protect. Or to put it in simple words men loved showing off their power. Men like women who depend on them, not the other way round. 

[A hardworking man is called ambitious whereas a hardworking woman is called competitive. The heights of hypocrisy. ]

A man such as Long Jie didn't lack women. He could get anyone he chose. So why would he marry Xin Zhenyi when he knew that after marrying her there was no escape? 

However, he still said," Mr. Long, I didn't know Miss Xin was your woman." 

Long Jie was getting irritated now. He didn't like this man named Du Zheng. How dare he breathe the same air as his Cat eyes? 

"It's Mrs. Long," Long Jie reminded him. He had heard about Du Zheng's reputation. To him women were just a means to satisfy his lust. He would be damned if he let this bastard look at his wife with lustful eyes. He would rip off his eyeballs. "I do not care how you treat other women but when it comes to my wife, make sure you stay several metres away from her. I'm a possessive man. I don't want a man like you to breathe the same air as her. Do you understand me?"

Of course, Du Zeng did. He was on the mission to destroy Xin family, but who would have thought that he would end up finding Long Jie's weakness?

'Hahaha. The great Long Jie would be destroyed just because of you, Xin Zhenyi. He will regret marrying you.' 

'You will be mine. Only mine.' 

Du Zeng threw a glance at Zhenyi who was staring at him with a smile. If he knew that she was smiling because of him, he would be shocked. But it was truly because of this bastard his Jie got jealous and it was not everyday that she got to see her husband being insecure. It's good to be jealous sometimes. It's the key to a productive relationship after all. 

"Mr. Long, you are going overboard. Indeed, I was interested in Miss Xin, but it was before I didn't know that she is your wife. I have no intention of going against you. Unfortunately, I can't afford a big rival like you in my current state. After all, you made sure to break my back two months ago and I have yet to recover from that blow." 

Financial blows were more painful than physical blows. 

Zhenyi kept smiling at him. 

"Good thing you understand!" Long Jie didn't wish to talk to him anymore. "Now give the phone back to my wife!" 

Zhenyi didn't take any time before removing the phone from the loudspeaker. 

"Jie?" 

"Love, stop messing around." Never had Zhenyi ever thought that scolding could be so sweet and lovely. "And you could have asked Yuan to crush this mosquito? Why are you dirtying your precious hands?" 

Only if Long Jie knew that his scolding had no effect on his lovely wife.Rather she was blinking his eyes like crazies. 

He kept scolding and she kept on listening to him with a smile. 

"Mr. Long!" Zhenyi recalled that she was still sitting in Du Zheng's office. 

"Yes, Mrs. Long?"

"Stop finding trouble with me. And I know why you called. So, I will call you later." 

"Zhen--"

Before Long Jie could say anything, Zhenyi had cut the call. 

"Ruthless Cat eyes!" Long Jie said while punching his chest softly. 

***

"Never had I ever thought that I would see Long Jie and Xin Zhenyi married to each other." Du Zheng said to Zhenyi once she was done with the call. 

The smile on her face became brighter, the emerald color of her suit brought out the green of her beautiful eyes. (Her heterochromatic eyes have several colours. It changes as per the light.) However, it looked like her bright smile coupled with those dangerous eyes were coated with a layer of venom. And how could he forget the infamous venomous tongue?

Zhenyi leaned forward and pulled him by his tie. Du Zheng who was caught off guard thought as if Zhenyi was faking her affections with her husband but as he was about to say something, a dagger appeared out of nowhere and was positioned on his tender pale neck.

'What a sissy neck! It could break with a soft blow!' 

"Mr. Du, what were you offered for acting as my fiance?" Zhenyi asked him in a sweet voice. It was as if she hadn't placed a dagger on his neck and was thinking of a thousand ways to kill a scumbag. 

"Nothing except peace," Du Zheng replied honestly. He wasn't afraid of Zhenyi's dagger. She didn't have the guts to kill him. But just as this thought passed his brain, the dagger was slowly pierced into his neck. Yet, it didn't stop Du Zeng from speaking. " Who would have thought a mere scandal would end bringing Xin Zhenyi to my door step?" 

"Easy, Mr. Du. Let me tell you, my Jie never gives idle threats," Zhenyi said. Now the blood had started oozing from his neck. " He loves staining his hands with blood as much as I do. If I'm ruthless then he is petty when it comes to me. So, I suggest you take care of your life, at least for me." 

Whoever had said that "We can't mend the bends of the dog's tail" has never been more right. In Zhenyi's opinion Du Zeng was the same dog whose tail bends could never be mended. 

Once a scumbag. Always a scumbag. 

"I didn't know Miss Zhenyi had taken a fancy to me."
