Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 229 Let Go Of Me

Everyone had focused their attention on Jean that they forgot about Zed. They were surprised when he suddenly stood up and walked towards Jean, with increasing fury in each stride. He grabbed Jean by the wrist and dragged her towards their room. The whole crowd did not know how to react and fell silent for a few seconds. It was so quiet that one could only hear the slamming of the door from inside the house.

Everyone just watched it happen and no one said a word to stop it. The look on each person's face varied.

It was a private family issue, so no one dared step in. Besides, except for the feeding part, Mr. Qi was pretty gloomy all night.

It would be easy to figure out that there must be some quarrel or misunderstanding between the two of them that made Mr. Qi get out of control. But then again, so was his wife.

Zack came back to his senses quickly and acted accordingly. He tried to direct the attention of the crowd towards himself and said, "Come on, everyone! it's a lovely evening! Enjoy your dinner, enjoy the food and have fun! The mini-drama show is over and there's nothing to see anymore!"

Everyone smiled with ambiguity. They regrouped in smaller crowds and started talking to each other. The noise of everyone making chit chat at the same time almost sounded like a roar. Music also started playing loudly again.

As the two left the scene, Jesse could do nothing but watch. The look on her pretty face melted away and in its place was the look of fury.

Her chest went up and down as she breathed heavily and tightened her fists. It was clear that she was suppressing something in her chest and was about to burst.

Jean was enjoying the food and chewing when she was dragged away by Zed. She stumbled along and followed him.

She tried hard to break free from Zed's grip, but the strength between men and women are different like night and day. "Let go of me......." Having swallowed the food in her mouth, Jean shouted in anger.

Zed was in a terrible mood. He looked back and gave Jean a cold stare.

When he saw Jean also looking at him in anger, it agitated him further.

He pulled Jean close and pinched her chin with his fingers. He almost screamed in outrage. "Jean Wen, have you always been this heartless and insensitive?"

"Me heartless?" Jean almost choked as she laughed. "The one who is heartless is you, not me."

"What are you talking about?" Zed retorted. One must remember never to mess with Zed. He turned into a different person and tended to become scary, the dark glow of anger piercing from his eyes. "Say that again."

"Even If I repeat myself a thousand times, my words will remain the same. Who do you think you are? Get as angry as you want. Your temper is more violent than that of anyone else... and you are more sensitive than women! If you don't trust anything I say, then I have nothing to say to you." Jean screamed out loud.

"You......" Zed was provoked by this attitude of Jean. He raised his palm and was going to land it on Jean's face.

But his remaining sanity whispered to him, 'no, you can not slap her.'

Jean looked at the raising hand of Zed and the look on her face worsened.

Was he going to hit her now that he couldn't win with words?

'Zed, I never thought you are such a person.'

"Go ahead! Zed, hit me if you dare!" Jean felt a clap in her head as her sanity crashed and collapsed.

Jean's eyes were like burning fire as she put her face in front of Zed. She let it all out and cried and screamed.

Her tears as large as pearls were flowing in streams from her eyes.

'Trying to hit me for no reason, Zed, you really let me down. Now I see your true colors"

Looking at Jean's face in a mix of anger, desperation and frustration, Zed's heart was beating fast.

He pulled back his hand impetuously and yelled back, "You are such an uppity and arrogant woman. You won't learn a thing unless I teach you a lesson."

"What about you? You are no better than me! Just because you have figured out that I invited Eva and I didn't tell you the truth, you want to upset me by flirting with another woman?" Jean wiped the tears on her face hard as she asked, with mockery all over her face. "You saw that?" Zed was surprised but did not show it. He hid it with a frown instead.

"Of course I saw that! That was what you wanted to happen, wasn't it? You were audacious enough to do it in front of everyone, in the middle of everything! Right, no man would want his wife to know that he was cheating on her. Even if he doesn't care about the woman, it is just to avoid getting into trouble." Jean said in her most sarcastic tone.

"What are you bullshitting about?" Zed countered in his defense, "I didn't try to conceal anything, and I kept waiting for you to come out from wherever you were hiding."

"Oh my God! Zed Qi, are you even human?" Jean was completely frustrated. "Sometimes I wonder what you heart is made of. Having done that kind of thing, were you expecting me to come out and give you a round of applause?" Jean widened her eyes in disbelief. "That was an accident. I didn't know that Jesse would do that in front of the crowd. So, if you did care about me, you would have stepped out and confronted me. If you hated it that much, you should have come out and tried to stop it. You should have done something about it! I......"

Zed stopped. He did not want to go further. His face was showing a lot of frustration. Men are not really good at expressing themselves. He just looked at Jean with his deep and serene eyes.

With what she just heard, Jean was shocked and overwhelmed.

What did her husband mean?

That he was waiting for her to come out and question him? He was testing her so that he could tell that she had him in her heart?.

Why did all of this sound so impossible?

When did this notorious playboy Mr. Qi get so insecure?

Besides, it was he who distrusted her and left her in the first place!

Jean felt so confused, her mouth left open, hardly having any ability to ask, "You what?"

"You asked me to believe in you, and at that time I was too angry to respond to you before you left. Then after rational consideration, I thought that you might have your own concerns......"

Zed looked uncomfortable when he murmured this, all fury gone from his body, but still breathing heavily.

Joy bloomed in Jean's heart at she looked at the man she loved deeply. Tears started welling up in her eyes once more. This time with happiness.

"So, are you going to believe me now?" Jean asked, sniffing and wiping her tears away.

"You... what can I do with you.." Zed couldn't help but sigh. He looked at Jean, relieved that their big fight was over and asked, "So, what is it that you are concealing from me? Can't you even tell me the reason? You can't be dumb enough to give up and let another woman have me, can you?" "No, never." Hearing this, a big smile flashed on Jean's face. She shook her head and said, "You are my husband. My head must be hit by a train if I made the decision to give you to another woman."

"Then what's your reaction when you saw Jesse kiss me?" Zed noticed that Jean had returned to her normal self and asked the question he had been dying to ask.

As the question was put forward, his eyebrows twisted and he looked at her, observing the slightest change in her facial expression.

The smile in her face momentarily vanished, then she looked at Zed.

People say that the IQ of a woman in a romantic relationship is almost zero.

But Zed seemed to be quite as dumb.

No one would have thought he could be so insecure when it came to his feelings.

Jean felt a warm surge in her heart as she put her hand around his waist and held him closely. Then she squeezed her face into Zed's chest and said gently, "Zed, if you have me in your heart and don't want to upset me, can you keep your distance from other women? No matter who they may be?"0000000
