Chapter 45 (2/2)

He gave her a glance that made Tang Chi uneasy and then said softly, “Looks like I don’t really know you well enough.”

Tang Chi’s head wanted to explode. She hated speaking to people with high IQ that liked to set traps everywhere.

She couldn’t help herself and said, “We only met up a few times before we got married. Didn’t you said that…isn’t it normal to not know me well?”

She wanted to say something about the one-year agreement but it was hard with the driver in front.

Gu Linzheng understood immediately, “Are you blaming me?”

Tang Chi got out of the car and felt that she could breathe in an air of freedom.

Tang Chi went into the house and the maid who opened the door greeted her with a smile, “Young Missus”

Tang Chi felt a little awkward but the maid had no other suitable way of greeting her. Miss Tang would be too strange and would not be appropriate.

Ahh, life was really boring!

Tang Chi entered the living room. Qi Zhen was wearing a long dress for home use and sat elegantly on the sofa having her afternoon tea. When she saw Tang Chi, she smiled and said, “Hey Chi Chi, you’re back?”
