What a liar, a scoundrel!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at her hurried footsteps, Quan Jingwu replaced the item back onto the shelf and leisurely followed after her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without taking any special entitlement, both of them quietly queued behind others. After paying with a card, they headed straight home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to Shijin Haoting, Jian Qing, along with the snowball, started munching on her snacks in the living room. Meanwhile, Quan Jingwu took a recipe book and headed to the kitchen to cook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing took a bite of the potato chips and also fed some to Snowball, “Snowball, do you think we’ll get a meal today?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Arf Arf-” Have some faith in your master, beautiful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing glanced at the kitchen and muttered to herself, “No worries, if there’s no meal, we’ll just eat snacks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Arf Arf-” Not acceptable, this Wolf King demands meat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, despite the surprises, lunch was ready around two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the three dishes and a soup, Jian Qing was slightly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaojing, did you make these?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are people smart if they can master anything?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why hasn’t she yet, then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be that you made it?” Quan Jingwu poured her some soup and retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing grinned, “Nope, I don’t have your skills.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had to admit, it tasted much better compared to the previous bowl of noodles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the meal, Jian Qing conscientiously planned on washing the dishes, but he stopped her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go sit over there!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You cook, I wash dishes. What’s wrong with that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need, all you need to do is eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching him take the dishes to the kitchen, Jian Qing followed him in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaning on the side, she watched him wash the dishes, a soft smile crept on her lips, “Xiaojing, you’re so diligent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diligent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could the CEO of JK International be described as diligent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If word gets out, it would be utterly hilarious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quan Jingwu placed the cleaned dishes aside, raised an eyebrow at her, “Can you use another term?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking for a bit, she asked, “Hardworking?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at her, lost for words, deciding not to expect any more fanciful adjectives from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Changing the topic, he started softly, “Sweetie, how about we negotiate a deal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing perked up, narrowing her eyes at him, “What kind of deal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One should always be wary when making deals with this crafty wolf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I cook and do house chores, do you accept?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, live together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was her interpretation correct?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaojing, you’ve made a good proposal!” Transitioning from dating to cohabiting, the pace sure changed rapidly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quan Jingwu put the last bowl in its place, “So?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She retorted firmly, “No!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s inconvenient!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, he wiped his hands, leaning in close, “What’s inconvenient?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is he trying to charm her again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing was trapped in his arms; averting her gaze, she conceded, “Uhm, let me think about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How many days?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s see, two weeks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not acceptable.” Sharing a bed with her last night was intoxicating; how could he possibly wait any longer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, a week and a half?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s still too long.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Final offer, one week. No less than that,” Jian Qing said resolutely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at her, flatly replying, “Fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at him, Jian Qing suddenly had the feeling of being schemed against.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, the phone rang melodiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing pushed him away, promptly escaping the danger zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She answered the call without checking the caller ID. Xiya’s husky voice came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jian Qing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of Xiya’s voice was a little off. Jian Qing asked gently, “Xiya, what’s wrong? Did something happen?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jian Qing, I, I slept with Khan.” Over there, amidst the hustling and bustling airport, Xiya stared straight ahead, her emerald eyes reflecting an unusual tint of confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing almost thought she was hallucinating, “What did you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slept with Khan, what on earth was happening?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I slept with Khan.” Xiya weakly repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing held her forehead, these two unreliable ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you right now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just got off the plane, I’m in Beijing now,”Jian Qing massaged her throbbing temples, “Get over to my place now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t your guy with you? Will I be a third wheel?” Xiya rallied herself to joke around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just get over here,” Jian Qing snapped. Though Xiya appeared carefree, she took relationships seriously; they must have really screwed up this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah Jian, you’re always good to me,” Xiya sniffed, forcing her tone to sound cheerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up, Jian Qing sat on the couch, pondering over Xiya and Khan’s situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you daydreaming? Who called?” Quan Jingwu sat down beside her, tousling her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing responded, “Xiya called, why don’t you head back first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A frown pulled at Quan Jingwu’s forehead, “Am I not fit for company?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!” Jian Qing leaned against him, her arms wrapping around his neck, “Xiya’s in some trouble. She just landed and is rushing over. Also, she’s already aware that we’re together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then knock off a day from that week!” He took advantage of the situation to negotiate, perfectly fitting the owner of the quick wit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Qing shot him a frosty glance and, with Xiya arriving soon, grudgingly conceded. “Alright, I agree!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1019,"2026-06-03T14:26:08.783Z",1,"novelbin.me","e92f1e3d09d0c122733f6db83e825c54400a0a8995165be2f06732879a629677","monopolize-my-mysterious-wife-chapter-164","monopolize-my-mysterious-wife-chapter-162",1182,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmonopolize-my-mysterious-wife-cover.jpg"]
