Tycoon is Hen-pecked - C183

Zuo Zixian thought about it and felt that Ling Yiheng’s attitude was not like his usual self, it was just too abnormal.

“Zhou Heng, what happened to him?” Just as she was about to get on the car, she hesitated for a moment before asking Zhou Heng. It was unknown if it was due to curiosity or the concern he felt in his heart.

Zhou Heng looked in the direction of the main entrance, as if he was considering whether he should tell Zuo Zixian the truth.

From his expression, Zuo Zizhen knew that something was up, so he continued to ask, “Quickly tell me, why is he in such a hurry to go back?”

Zhou Heng’s face stiffened and he sighed. “Miss Zuo, actually…” He can’t eat spicy food from a Boss. He is allergic to chili. After eating so much chilli peppers today, his entire body will definitely feel itchy and he will even get a rash.

Hearing that, Zuo Zizhen’s face changed, as he covered his gaping mouth.

“He’s so serious. Why didn’t he say so when he was in the dining room?” Her face was puzzled.

Zhou Heng smiled, “I think it’s because Boss doesn’t want to spoil Miss Zuo’s mood. Since you like to eat, I might as well let you have it.” In fact, Boss is really nice to you. Before, in Strasbourg… ”

Suddenly, he seemed to realize that he had talked too much and hurriedly stopped what he was about to say.

But since he had already said all that, how could Zuo Zixian make him stop?

“What happened in Strasbourg? Tell me quickly. ” she asked eagerly, her eyes full of concern for Ling Yiheng.

Zhou Heng prayed that the Boss wouldn’t kill him after finding out about this. He then braced himself to tell Zuo Zixian that Ling Yiheng had fainted because of her. In addition, he also told her about it. Actually, he had been secretly observing the operation of Dix Restaurant with the intention of helping her in time. This was also the reason why he didn’t want her to sell her house.

The more Zuo Zi heard about it, the more he felt uncomfortable in his heart. That sudden burst of emotion couldn’t be described, but it felt both real and fake.

How could a cold merchant like Ling Yiheng do so many things for him? Moreover, these things were of no benefit to him at all, only to her advantage. Why would he do that?

Zhou Heng saw Zuo Zizhen frozen in place, and knew that she couldn’t digest all of this in such a short time, so he stood to the side and waited for her to react.

After a while, Zuo Zixian came back to his senses. The first thing she did was to close the car door. She looked awkwardly at Zhou Heng and said, “You don’t need to send me off. I want to go in and see how he’s doing.”

No matter what, it was because of her that he ate so much spicy food tonight. If something really happened to him because of this meal, she would feel very bad.

Seeing how determined Zuo Zixian was, Zhou Heng couldn’t help but feel happy for Ling Yiheng. If the two of them could take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the knot in their hearts, then that would be for the best.

However, it was hard to tell whether things would turn out as optimistic as he had hoped.

Since Zuo Ziqian had given the order, Zhou Heng didn’t stay any longer. He drove the car and left. However, before leaving, he promised Zuo Zixian that she would come over at any time and bring her back to the hotel.

After sending off Zhou Heng, Zuo Zixian took a deep breath and walked through the gate of Ling Ying’s home.

As soon as she entered the room, she became nervous and began to regret her decision to stay here and check on his condition.

However, now that Zhou Heng was gone, she could only grit her teeth and enter.

Ling Yiheng was obviously not in the living room. He had already gone to the second floor, so naturally, he couldn’t hear anything from downstairs.

Zuo Zixian looked around and saw a large refrigerator in the living room. After pondering for a moment, he walked over and opened the door.

If eating spicy tea was too uncomfortable, it should be better to drink cold tea, right? She came out of the refrigerator with a bottle of cold tea.

Zuo Zixian took the cold tea and tiptoed up to the second floor. His heart was pounding as if there were many things knocking against it, as if he was afraid that Ling Yiheng would notice him coming up.

Ling Yiheng was taking a bath in his room. Due to his unwell condition, he took a quick shower and walked out.

He tied a towel around his waist and wiped his wet hair with a dry towel. He didn’t expect that someone would come in and go upstairs at this time.

Just as he was about to go get the hair dryer, he heard a sudden knock on the door.

Ling Yiheng knitted his brows. His first reaction was that Zhou Heng had something to report to him.

He walked to the door and opened it to check if it was really Zhou Heng. However, outside the door was actually a Left Sage holding a bottle of cold tea that obviously came from his fridge.

The man was shocked and immediately opened the door. With an unfriendly tone, he asked, “Why are you here?”

He clearly remembered that he had instructed Zhou Heng to take her back to the hotel. She should be on her way now.

Zuo Zixian smelled the fresh scent of the shower gel on his body, and saw the faintly discernible muscles from the gap in the door. He knew he must have just finished his shower, and his face immediately flushed red.

However, in just a split-second, Zuo Zixian hurriedly dismissed all those random thoughts in his mind, afraid that Ling Yiheng would see through them.

“I… “I was afraid you might feel sick from eating too much spicy tea, so I gave you the cold tea from your fridge.” She said somewhat embarrassedly.

The man glanced at the bottle of cold tea in her hand and felt the burning in his stomach and the heat in his body rise again.

Although he found it funny that she would give him something from her house, he still stepped back to let her in.

Zuo Zixian did his best to keep his gaze straight as he walked in. He placed the cold tea on the bedside table in his room and prepared to leave.

However, when she suddenly thought of the possibility that Ling Yiheng, who Zhou Heng had told her about before, would have a good reaction, the worry she felt for him forced her to stop.

She turned her gaze from the bedside table and stopped on him, only to find that the man was also staring at her.

His brows creased slightly, and his black eyes were as deep as a pool. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking, and even more so, it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

She couldn’t help but look at him, trying to see how he was doing, if anything was wrong with the spicy food.

However, it was probably because his face and figure were too perfect. For a moment, she was dazzled and almost forgot her original intention.

He couldn’t help but slowly slide down from that perfect face that looked like it was carved from heaven, all the way to his chest.

In fact, she had never seen his nakedness so clearly and so closely before, and the more she looked at it, the more it pleased her.

This was probably the legendary golden ratio, right?

Is that what a world-class male model looks like?” The legs were perfect, the waist was moderate in shape, and the neck was beautiful and slender. Every part of the neck was like a beautiful work of art, neither thin nor fat. It was a truly perfect model figure, a figure that could make any man in the world jealous.

Zuo Ziqian himself didn’t realize this, and was mesmerized by his body.

“What are you looking at?” Ling Yiheng’s sudden voice interrupted Zuo Zixian, giving him a shock.

Looking at the man’s inky eyes that seemed to contain a smile, she realized that she had already shifted her gaze to his lower abdomen. If she continued down any further, she would reach that crucial point.

She blushed and tried to clarify. “I was just checking to see if you were feeling well after eating spicy food.”

She pretended to be calm, making the man feel even more amused. The corner of his mouth slightly twitched. He couldn’t help but mock her, “Are you sure you aren’t taking advantage of me?”

Looking at his dishonest face, Zuo Zixian immediately regretted coming up to see him, “I didn’t take advantage of you! “Stop being so narcissistic!”

The man raised his eyebrows but didn’t reply. He then walked to his wardrobe and took out a nightgown to change into.

Zuo Zizhi originally wanted to leave, but he quickly walked over, picked up the cup of cold tea she took out from the refrigerator, and drank it.

When the cool, fresh liquid entered his throat, he felt the heat in his body dissipate.

“Are you all right? If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first. ” Zuo Zixian stood in his bedroom at a loss of what to do, and subconsciously wanted to leave quickly.

From the looks of it, he didn’t seem to be too much of a problem. She finally let out a sigh of relief.

But who would’ve thought that his territory wouldn’t be so easy to leave.

“Do you care so much about me?” The man opened his mouth and spoke suddenly. His eyes were fixed on her, and she couldn’t really see what he was looking at.

The atmosphere was ambiguous, causing people to feel their breathing quicken.

Zuo Zixian took a deep breath and pretended to be calm, “It’s because you ate too much spicy today and I’m afraid something might happen to you. When the time comes, it’s my fault so I came over to take a look.”

“Isn’t that still caring about me?” he asked, but seemed to ignore her quibbling.

Her eyes were fixed on her, as if she wanted to see through her whole being. She felt even more uneasy.

However, in the next moment, he suddenly covered his stomach and frowned slightly. He did not say what he was about to say.

Although his expression was still calm, Zuo Zisheng could still see some clues from his little actions.

“What’s wrong with you? Is it uncomfortable? ” She quickly asked, carefully walking up to him.

The man grabbed her hand and pulled her in front of him. The distance between the two of them was nearly zero.

“What are you doing?” Zuo Zisheng wanted to flee in panic, but he was worried about him, so he couldn’t push him away.

Ling Yi Heng felt a burning pain in his stomach and knew that he was in for a spicy reaction.

“Help me get the German stomach medicine from the medicine cabinet downstairs.” He clutched his stomach as he calmly instructed her. Even though he was already sweating profusely from the pain, his expression did not change at all.

“Alright, I understand.” Seeing his pale face, Zuo Zixian knew things were not going well, so he quickly turned around and went downstairs to get the medicine for him.

The man looked at her flustered figure and covered his stomach with a faint smile.
