Monopolize My Mysterious Wife
Chapter 858 - 858 844 absolutely not with me (2)

Chapter 858: 844, absolutely not with me (2) Chapter 858: 844, absolutely not with me (2) Jian Qing of the Jian family, if he could establish a connection with her, it would be of great benefit to his future inheritance of the family business.

Jian Qing put down her book, lifted her head, and her cold, pitch-black eyes like midnight casually swept over him, “Sorry, I’m not free.”

After being repeatedly rejected by Jian Qing, the man’s face lost its luster, and he left sheepishly.

Seeing this scene, the men who were originally eager all became somewhat timid, as being publicly rejected was quite a loss of face.

Jian Qing picked up her book again, noticing that the crowd around her was growing, and the low buzz of whispers in her ears caused her to frown slightly.

“She’s just a bit pretty, what’s so great about that?” A few girls muttered discontentedly from not far away as they saw Jian Qing attracting everyone’s attention upon her arrival.

“Does she need to be so aloof? Putting on airs.”

Although their voices were low, the people close to them still heard clearly, and one of the men glanced at them disdainfully and snorted coldly.

“Yeah, she’s nothing special, just a person in power at the Jian family, the CEO of Jian Group, and her husband is only the CEO of JK International, that’s all.”

The sarcastic taunts laced with mockery made the faces of the girls jealous of Jian Qing change color.

“It’s better to keep your jealous words to yourself. Just a reminder, I’ve heard that Senior Jian Qing has a pretty bad temper. She takes revenge on the spot and won’t spare your feelings; don’t end up dragging your own families into it,” another man said.

The girls snorted and walked away dejectedly.

With the rejection of that man as a lesson, the others all stayed quietly aside, watching Jian Qing without daring to casually approach her and risk losing face.

Suddenly, there was a disturbance at the entrance.

Against the light, a man with a tall figure entered forcefully into everyone’s view, his bewitching and enchanting features made the people around stare in awe, continuously uttering exclamations.

Especially the girls, who almost held their hands to their hearts.

“So handsome ahhh!”

“I’ve seen him on TV, it’s Quan Jingwu, Quan Jingwu!”

“What day is it today? First Jian Qing, then Quan Jingwu, why have the couple come here together?”

Seeing Quan Jingwu, everyone couldn’t help but think of Jian Qing, as the couple were often on the trending lists and familiar to everyone.

Quan Jingwu stood at the entrance of the library, scanning the inside, his gaze suddenly stopping on the silhouette by the window.

Even from just a back view, he was still able to recognize her instantly.

Noticing that not a few men inside the library were directing their gazes toward his wife, Quan Jingwu’s brows furrowed slightly, and he walked over with big strides.

Jian Qing’s eyes lowered, listening to the footsteps behind her, the corners of her lips curved into a faint smile.

Suddenly, the chair beside her was pulled out, followed by a hand that looked like a work of art snatching the book from her hands, closing it and tossing it onto the table.

Bang.

Seeing this childish act, Jian Qing chuckled softly, took off her hat, and looked up at the person beside her.

Her lips curled into a smile, her eyes crinkling, “You found me so quickly, how did you know I was in the library?”

Faster than she expected.

Quan Jingwu looked down at her, the frost in his eyes melting away, and pointed at the people around, “Them.”

As soon as he arrived at YA, he heard people in the academy talking about her, and he followed the crowd straight to the library.

Jian Qing glanced at his slightly disheveled black shirt, her lips curving, and she raised her hand to tidy his collar for him, “Have you had breakfast?”

By the looks of it, he must have rushed over as soon as he heard she was flirting with some young talent, probably skipping breakfast too.

Quan Jingwu’s gaze fell on her, his eyes carrying a touch of reproach, “What do you think?”

Jian Qing was amused by his aggrieved expression, “Who told you not to eat.”

“You’re flirting with the fresh meat, how can I still have an appetite for breakfast?” he asked.

Jian Qing couldn’t help but chuckle, “I was just saying it, besides, you arrived so quickly, even if I wanted to flirt with the fresh meat, I would need some time, right?”

“Not allowed, if you’re going to flirt, flirt with me,” Quan Jingwu said commandingly.

“Haha.”

Jian Qing laughed and fell into his arms. Quan Jingwu extended his hand and lightly flicked her forehead, “Am I not eating breakfast, and you’re this happy about it?”

Jian Qing held back her laughter and took his hand, “Let’s go, the food at YA Canteen is quite good. After we eat, I’ll take you around.”

Quan Jingwu pulled her up, and leaning down, he pecked her lips with a swift action that elicited a chorus of gasps from those around.

A sudden wave of dog food was thrown, so sweet it could rot your teeth.

Seeing everyone’s stunned expressions, Jian Qing lightly patted Quan Jingwu’s shoulder and hurriedly dragged him away.

At nine o’clock, the bell rang, and everyone quickly dispersed, returning to their respective classrooms for lessons.

For those studying at YA, living a muddled life was almost impossible, as strength was very important here.

In the canteen, only a few who didn’t have early classes were still eating breakfast, which made the canteen seem empty and a bit desolate.

Jian Qing ordered a few dishes, and they casually picked a spot to sit down.

She examined the decor and arrangements inside the canteen, still unchanged, exactly as it was before.

“Xiaojing, we used to always eat at that spot,” she said, pointing to a place on the second floor by the window.

“We?” Quan Jingwu asked.

Jian Qing said, “Me, Luoluo, along with Black Jack and Bai Jue, we all studied here.”

Upon hearing this, Quan Jingwu suddenly felt jealous of Black Jack and the others, jealous they were part of her past he hadn’t been part of.

“Back then, when we first came to this school, someone provoked Luoluo here, and we got into a fight with those people right in this spot.”

That time, they almost had the entire canteen smashed.

Quan Jingwu gently pinched her cheek and curled his lips into a smile, “It looks like after Seventeen and Nineteen start school, we might often have to call the parents.”

Hearing the teasing in his words, Jian Qing swatted his hand away, “That would definitely be like you, certainly not following my lead.”

In her opinion, he must have fought too during his school days, otherwise, how would those aristocratic young masters see him at banquets and react as if they had just seen a cat.

As they discussed these matters, little did they know, in the near future, their words would become a self-fulfilling prophecy, with Seventeen and Nineteen’s interesting school stories being incessant.

During their chat, the dishes were quickly served.

“Would you like to eat more?” Quan Jingwu picked up his chopsticks and asked.

Jian Qing shook her head, “I had a full breakfast in the morning.” She still felt uncomfortably stuffed.

Quan Jingwu began to eat, while Jian Qing chatted with him about her school anecdotes, occasionally being teased by him in return.

Not long after, Quan Jingwu finished eating, and after staying in the canteen for a while, Jian Qing pulled him out for a walk to help digest the meal.

The sun shone brightly, and from the playground not far away came bursts of cheering.

“Go, go, go!”

“Klein is the coolest, Klein go, go, go!”
