Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 117

Jean felt completely relieved after she found out that no one was inside the room. She quickly changed her clothes and went downstairs.

Zelda had prepared their breakfast. Zed was just sitting there while enjoying his meal.

Zed took a sip of the milk as Jean was going down the stairs. For a moment, their gaze met.

Jean cleared her throat and sat opposite to Zed. She felt very embarrassed and shy when she thought about what happened upstairs.

"Mrs. Jean, are you having a sore throat? Or have you caught a cold? Let me give you a glass of warm water." Zelda turned around after she finished speaking.

When he heard Zelda talked about cold, Zed recalled that Jean slept last night without covering herself well. Perhaps she had caught a cold because of that. Zed kept silent for a while. Then he coldly raised his eyes and said to Zelda, "Cook some ginger soup for her."

Ginger soup? Jean took a furtive glance at him and thought, 'Is he concerned about me?'

"Mr. Zed, I think this is yours. I've found it inside your car." Luke went to him and handed him a VIP medal.

Jean recognized the medal. It was only for the VIP members of a nightclub.

She looked on the floor and murmured, "I stood and struggled against the cold wind for an hour yesterday just for that thing?"

"What are you murmuring?" Zed seemed to hear what she said. He slightly raised his eyes and looked at her apathetically.

Jean was provoked. She shook her head and playfully said, "I didn't say anything. I just thought that you should take good care of that medal, because that is so precious."

"Luke!" He doubtfully looked at her. Then he slowly took his eyes off her.

"Mr. Zed, what can I do for you?"

"How did I come back last night?"

"Last night… "

"You got drunk last night. In fact, you were roaring drunk. Then, your secretary gave me a phone call. So, I went to pick you up with Luke."

"Was that all?" Zed doubted what Jean said. He thought that what happened last night was not so simple as what Jean described. He remembered that something happened after he got drunk.

'Did something happen inside the room?' Zed asked to himself. He only had a vague memory. He was not sure if his absurd memory was true or not.

"That's all that happened last night!" Jean nodded her head with a smile and looked up at Luke. "Was that true? It seemed to be so simple, " said Jean.

Luke paused for a while. He smiled and nodded, "Yes, it was just like what Mrs. Jean said."

Then, Zed didn't ask further.

Jean wanted to finish her breakfast fast and leave the table. She didn't want to see Zed's cold face. Last night, he treated her so kindly, affectionately and intimately. However, everything became normal when he woke up. He pulled a long and cold face just like what he usually did. He looked extremely apathetic and cold.

"Mrs. Qi, here is your ginger soup." Zelda said when she walked towards Jean with the ginger soup, "It is useful for dispelling, treating and preventing cold."

"Thank you, Zelda." Jean took the ginger soup. Before she had a sip of it, she suddenly thought of something and told Zelda, "Give him a bowl of soup too. It will help him sober up."

"Okay, Mrs. Jean." Zelda smiled furtively. She had worked as a housemaid in Qi house since Zed was a little kid. She was very glad that Mr. Zed and Mrs. Jean loved each other so much.

Jean and Zed enjoyed their breakfast in silence. After a while, a strange atmosphere was elevated in the air.

After taking up the ginger soup, Jean was ready to leave.

Zed held her arm and pulled her towards his car after she walked out of the door.

"What are you doing?" Jean loosened his hand. She rubbed her arm that was clasped by Zed, and frowned, "Why don't you have even a little conscience?" I took good care of you last night. Is this how you return my kindness?"
