Ji Zitong stared at him for a long while, then her eyes turned cold.

“Are you going to go or not?” she asked as she stared at him dangerously. Her tone became hostile while her eyes revealed dissatisfaction.

Su Chen frowned and sucked in a deep breath before quickly explaining, “This is not about whether I’ll go or not. Alright, fine, I’ll arrange for help. You don’t need to go tomorrow either then. How’s that?”

“Aren’t you happy being with me, Chief Su?” Ji Zitong squinted at him.

“Not happy? How could that be?! You think too much, Missus Su...”

“I think too much? Don’t you realize that every time I ask you to come help, you never seem happy to do so? Do you feel like you’re being forced to?” she demanded.

Su Chen’s handsome brows furrowed into a knot as he cleared his throat and said, “Where did you come up with that? Why would I feel forced? You’ve been thinking badly of me recently. I asked you to go to a banquet with me, but you didn’t come either. Did you see me making any comments?”

“So, after all that was said and done, it’s because of this?”

Ji Zitong looked at him. “I didn’t realize that you were so petty. You never seem to be considerate about me. You’ve been leaving early and returning home late, and once you get home, you fall asleep right away. Even when I told you that my mother hasn’t been feeling well these past few days, you don’t seem to care or want to go home to visit with me, yet they think of you as a filial son-in-law.”

“That’s because I am a filial son-in-law! Alright, this is just a small matter. Don’t be like that. Wasn’t that just oversight? Oversight! We aren’t united at all! Drive. Let’s get going!”

Master Su knew that if this woman was going to start arguing, she could really go on and on until he got terrified.

“Just one word—’oversight’—and you think you can let it pass? Horrible!” Annoyed, Ji Zitong turned her head away and looked at the streetlights out her car window, refusing to look at him although she did not start the car either.

Su Chen frowned at her for quite a while before he sighed. He took the keys as he said, “Okay, don’t be angry now. If you don’t want to drive, then let me. Let’s swap seats—”

Pa—

Su Chen had just reached out when Ji Zitong hit his hand away and looked at him with a poker face.

His expression darkened. Nonetheless, he did not want to fight, so he sighed and opened the car door before alighting without a word.

Bam!

The door was slammed so hard that it almost frightened Ji Zitong. She looked at him and realized that he was walking ahead with huge strides as he whipped out his cigarette box and took out a stick to light up. Without a second look at her, he continued storming ahead.

“Su Chen!”

Then, Ji Zitong shouted for him, but he did not turn around. Draping his coat onto his shoulders, he put out a hand to get a cab, then got into the car.

Ji Zitong had a headache now!

She fell silent for a moment and then cursed herself for being too serious. After that, she had no choice but to start the car and go after him.

...

She was close to the house now. After another two more traffic lights, the villa area would be ahead.

After Ji Zitong parked the car in the garage and went to the room, Su Chen had already showered and gone straight to the study room to continue with his work.

He did not say a word to Ji Zitong.

Actually, he was not angry. He just felt that he wasted too much effort and time to be tangled up in these problems, so he felt that he should let her calm down. He was not someone who liked fighting. Usually, at such a time, he would only keep quiet.

Of course, within the six months since Ji Zitong married him, it would be impossible to say that the couple did not have any conflicts, but usually, when they were about to start arguing, Su Chen would behave like this and keep quiet. He would let Ji Zitong go on complaining by herself because no matter what she wanted to do, it took two to create a quarrel.

1With women, Su Chen was rather patient because he always thought that it was useless to bicker with them. After all, did he not have a classic example in his own home?

After Ji Zitong took a bath, the bedroom was still quiet. She struggled inwardly for a bit, and finally decided to go over to take a look.

She pushed open the study room door and heard Su Chen’s voice. Then, she looked up and saw that he was sitting at his desk, talking to someone on the phone, “Okay, I’ll report in the day after tomorrow. I need to arrange some things in the bureau. Mm, okay, see you!”

Then, he hung up. When he turned to look at who had entered, Ji Zitong was already at his desk and frowning slightly at him, without saying anything.

Su Chen tossed his phone onto the table, his sharp gaze falling on Ji Zitong. He said in his deep voice, “What’s wrong? Are you still angry? Can we talk calmly now?”

Ji Zitong sighed. “You’re the one who’s angry!”

“I’m not going to argue with you. Fine, it’s me. Okay, I’ll go with you tomorrow, but we have to bring two people along to help out. The day after tomorrow, I have to go to the political party school for a while,” Su Chen said and then reached out as she silently stopped by his side too.

“Political party school? Where?” Ji Zitong asked, “Didn’t you just go recently? Why are the classes so frequent?”

“This time, I’m going to understand some awareness of traffic precautions and discuss the update of the traffic monitoring system. It’s just in the city, but I’ll need to stay there for quite a while and might need to visit other cities with the inspection team to observe and emulate others. If you’re not up for it, then you can go home to be with Mother-in-law or go home to visit Grandfather. My sister’s out of the country for the next two days. Otherwise, you could ask her to come over to hang out with you.”

Su Chen was a little worried about her. Although they had been married half a year now, they had not been separated before. However, this time his study mission was quite intense, so he would be fully occupied for many days.

Then, Ji Zitong fell silent as she thought about it, then said, “Don’t worry. Go and settle your stuff. I’m used to it anyway. How long will you be gone for?”

“I’m not too sure yet. Half a month if it’s a short one, a month if it’s a long stint,” Su Chen answered calmly.

Recently, he had been busy with this with the headquarters too. Even though they had already completed City Z’s road planning again, in the past one to two years, there had been an increase in private cars, so work at the traffic bureau had not been easy.

“What? That’s long!” Ji Zitong immediately frowned.

“The matters I need to handle are very complex. I just need to understand them,” he said and then closed his document.
