Chapter 77: They Slept on Separate Beds

The atmosphere was getting colder and colder. Bei Qingqing could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.

She felt that being next to Chen Jiazhi made her feel uncomfortable.

“I’m going downstairs to sleep,” Bei Qingqing said faintly, then got up.

After she got up, Bei Qingqing glanced at Chen Jiazhi’s back, her eyes filled with disappointment.

If Chen Jiazhi could turn around and coax her at this time, or turn around and explain where he had gone and what he had done, then she would be able to calm down and stay.

However, when Bei Qingqing got up and walked to the door, Chen Jiazhi seemed to have fallen asleep. There was no reaction at all. It was as if he did not care about what had happened tonight at all.

Bei Qingqing was extremely disappointed, so she closed the door and walked downstairs.

There were still a few guest rooms downstairs. Bei Qingqing did not disturb Ah Xiang. Instead, she tidied up one of the guest rooms and went in.

Lying on the bed, Bei Qingqing’s eyes were red with disappointment. Chen Jiazhi was a meticulous person. Bei Qingqing felt that it was impossible for him not to notice her anger.

The only explanation was that Chen Jiazhi did not care at all and did not want to coax her. That was why he chose to go to sleep even though he knew that she was angry.

At this moment, Chen Jiazhi slowly opened his eyes after Bei Qingqing left.

He caressed the spot where Bei Qingqing had left, which had a lingering warmth. He felt a wave of disappointment in his heart.

The next morning, Bei Qingqing got up early and went to school. She ignored Chen Jiazhi and turned around to leave on her own.

Chen Jiazhi was a little depressed, but he still did not follow Bei Qingqing. He called someone to secretly follow Bei Qingqing.

After Bei Qingqing left, he turned around to take a look. When he saw that Chen Jiazhi did not follow him, she felt angry.

During class, Bei Qingqing was not in the mood for the whole day, and she could not listen. After class, she returned home.

Bei Qingqing wanted to pretend that she did not care, but she saw that Chen Jiazhi was not at home, she still cared a little.

“Ah Xiang, where did Chen Jiazhi go?” Bei Qingqing could not help but ask.

Ah Xiang shook her head and said, “I don’t know. Young Master left very early. He didn’t say where he was going.”

Bei Qingqing was extremely puzzled. She looked at Chen Jiazhi’s number and struggled for a long time. She wanted to call Chen Jiazhi, but she did not want to take the initiative to give in.

After struggling for a while, Bei Qingqing still made the call. She thought that at worst, she could just pretend that she had dialed the wrong number.

Chen Jiazhi picked up quickly.

However, Bei Qingqing clearly heard the woman’s voice.

“Brother Jiazhi, are you listening to what I said?”

Bei Qingqing heard Lu Yao’s voice and hung up in a panic. For a moment, Bei Qingqing felt like her world had collapsed.

She did not expect Chen Jiazhi to really be with Lu Yao.

Chen Jiazhi only came back when it was time for dinner. It was the same as yesterday. Bei Qingqing did not wait for his explanation. The two of them were still the same. They looked at each other speechlessly.

Bei Qingqing felt very uncomfortable in his heart. She felt that he was a joke. What wedding? It was simply a joke.

Therefore, Bei Qingqing said lightly, “I’ve already thought about it. Let’s put the matter of our wedding on hold for now. I don’t think now is a good time.”

Chen Jiazhi was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Bei Qingqing to change her mind so quickly and decide not to hold a wedding. Anger suddenly rose in his heart, but he had no way to vent it. He said sharply, “If you don’t want to hold a wedding, then so be it.”
