Fake Marriage To The Richest Tycoon-Chapter 313 - 312: Because we are not compatible!

Shentu Jing was about to have the blanket and quilts to Qin Zhuzhu when he overheard the conversation between her and Shentu Mingye.

So he didn’t walk into the room, he stayed behind the door and listened. After she hung up the phone call, he gave the blanket to her as if nothing had happened.

"Are you hungry?" Shentu Jing asked.

"No. I’m going to bed," she yawned. "Are you joining me?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Why not? We are together now," he placed his large palm against hers.

The warmth travelled from his palm to hers causing Qin Zhuzhu to blush slightly. Her ears turned slightly red.

She quickly pulled her hand away from his and hid her face under the blanket. That motion of hers was very cute. Shentu Jing chuckled. Until now, she was still shy and nervous when they made skin contact.

The two climbed into bed together, Shentu Jing wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. With her by his side every night, his insomnia was cured.

The night was peaceful. Qin Zhuzhu looked up at his beautiful closed eyes, his nose was only a few centimetres from hers. Her gaze flickered to his lips. The beautiful man was sound asleep, his chest rising up and down.

His grip on her was tighter than usual. She looked at him confusedly. Was he having a nightmare? But he didn’t look like he was having.

She had always felt like he was keeping something from her. What was it? Last time, she vaguely remember that he wanted to tell her something about him but it was she herself who refused to listen to it. Was that what she thought it was?

Hmm.... Why did it felt like it was her fault?

The next morning when Shentu Jing woke up, Qin Zhuzhu was no longer there. He sighed and rolled onto his side. There was a handwritten message on the console table.

[I have made breakfast and coffee. Eat first, don’t overwork yourself. I’ll be back late, Qin Zhuzhu]

Shentu Jing took the message, read it and kept it away. Then he looked out the window. He stood on the balcony, watching the lights of the Shentu Group building blinking.

It was time to move. He cannot wait any longer.

*******

Shentu Chu didn’t go to the company. Instead, he stayed at home the whole day. That night, he saw from afar Shentu Mingye with Sanya. Shentu Mingye looked like he was doing well. He didn’t need him.

Hence, Shentu Chu left without saying hello.

He lifted the mirror with shaky hands. His eyes were red again, his forehead was sweating profusely, blue veins were appearing on his neck. He slowly pulled his cuff up, a reddish blue has reached up to his forearm.

If it reached his neck.....

Shentu Chu couldn’t bear to look at the monster in the mirror. He threw the mirror away and it shattered into pieces.

The drugs Qiao Minde had given him were all used up. Qiao Minde himself couldn’t make such drugs. The drugs were developed in Qiao Nai’s laboratory, but that laboratory was later given to Third Madam Qiao.

Third Madam Qiao.... Shentu Chu sneered.

Sooner or later, he would turn into something everyone will not be able to recognize. The thoughts of that frightened him. He can’t let anyone know of this! Qiao Minde was an exception, he happened to be there when the poison attacked.

Living a life relying on drugs felt worst than dying. He had to take drugs everyday, twice per day. Because of that, he couldn’t go out in public at certain times to avoid people looking at his pale face.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Then the door opened and Qiao Nian walked in happily, calling out for him.

Shentu Chu couldn’t reply, he buried his face into the cushion.

"What’s wrong, Shentu Chu?" Her voice came closer and closer to him. Qiao Nian approached, face full of concern.

Shentu Chu’s body trembled slightly. He was trying hard to control himself. She can’t see him like this! No, he can’t let her know! He can’t!

His back was turned towards her, he refused to look at her or speak.

The footsteps approached nearer and nearer.

"Shentu Chu, are you okay?"

"Nian Nian, why are you here?!" He shouted suddenly, startling her.

"What do you mean? Don’t we always visit each other? We live next to each other," Qiao Nian innocently replied.

Qiao Minde didn’t allow them to live together in the same house so the house was turned into an apartment, with each of them having their separate bedrooms. The kitchen was there only place that was shared.

"I meant, don’t knock before entering," he sounded irritated.

"I did," she replied meekly.

"Get out," Shentu Chu suddenly said.

"Are you okay? Why?" The girl was confused and continued to approach him.

Shentu Chu sighed, and got up from the couch with anger. He turned and faced her, glaring at her. Qiao Nian gasped.

His eyes were.... were very frightening.

"Leave. Now!"

"Shentu Chu, what is going on?" Qiao Nian couldn’t understand what was happening. She thought that he was in a bad mood today. "Your eyes....."

"Nothing is wrong with my eyes. Instead it’s..... I’m just...." He searched for the right words. Whenever he looked at that cute innocent face of hers, he had a strong urge to hug her and tell her all his fears. But then he was reminded that he could not do it.

Perhaps he should take the chance to break it off with her. It was now or never. If it goes on, he would only be hurting her more. His time was coming.

How foolish he was to think that he could lead a normal life, get married and have kids! Shentu Chu laughed inwardly at himself.

"I just don’t want to see you anymore,"

His words stunned her. Qiao Nian’s lips quivered, "Why?"

"Why?" He spoke as if that was the most ridiculous thing she ever said. "Because we are not compatible!"
