My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 1656: I Don’t Like Being Forced!

Seeing Xiao Zheng’s expression, Catherine felt a surge of anger. She snorted coldly and flung her hand, saying, "Is it wrong for me to be practicing? Do you even understand what practice is?"

"Oh!" Xiao Zheng suddenly seemed enlightened, chuckled, and then patted his forehead with a teasing tone: "But I never said you came to find me, did I? Does that count as an unintentional confession?"

Catherine’s expression stalled, and she awkwardly smiled but soon regained her composure. She raised her head and glanced at Xiao Zheng, her eyes appearing somewhat hesitant but also a bit complex.

Seeing her gaze, Xiao Zheng’s mouth curved into a slight smile, and he said calmly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Ahem..." Catherine coughed lightly twice, pursing her lips and saying, "Did you... really lose your memory?"

Xiao Zheng didn’t mind, shrugged, and said with a smile, "Yes, I’ve lost my memory."

Hearing this, Catherine suddenly raised her head with urgency in her eyes and said, "Really can’t remember anything at all?"

Xiao Zheng furrowed his brows slightly but then relaxed and licked his lips while sizing up the girl in front of him.

He had to admit, in his eyes, Catherine was definitely in the "beauty" category among women in the world. Although her style was completely different from Yuan Ying, and she seemed somewhat fiery, this natural allure in her eyes was indeed very captivating.

Plus, the urgency and a hint of pity on her face at the moment—it’s no surprise that most men with less willpower would fall for her instantly, especially since she was a blonde-haired, blue-eyed foreign girl.

Her graceful waist, her impressive chest, and the perfectly rounded derrière emphasized by her tight clothing left nothing to the imagination.

Even he couldn’t help but feel a few ripples in his heart.

Of course, the battle-worn Mr. Xiao naturally wasn’t swayed by her charms. He coughed lightly twice, retreated two steps very politely to maintain a distance, and said indifferently, "Although I don’t know your intentions, to be honest, my impression of you all isn’t bad, so..."

He shrugged and smiled, "Could you tell your people to stop bothering me?"

With that, he turned and walked towards the house.

Catherine stood frozen in place, her well-prepared expression not yet retracted when Xiao Zheng already turned and walked away. Looking at his indifferent eyes and back, she suddenly felt a surge of embarrassment, screamed out loud, and suddenly jumped up, lunging at Xiao Zheng.

Feeling the sudden gust of wind behind him, Xiao Zheng hesitated and quickly turned to dodge Catherine’s lunge, then awkwardly retreated saying, "What are you doing? What are you doing? Isn’t it just that I didn’t react to your heartfelt performance? Was it necessary for this?"

"Nani?"

Upon hearing Xiao Zheng bluntly point out the harsh truth, a blush of shame rushed over Catherine’s face. She gritted her teeth and lunged at Xiao Zheng again as soon as she hit the ground!

Seriously, here we go again?

Xiao Zheng frowned slightly, a trace of displeasure appearing on his face. He swayed slightly to the side, dodging this tigress’s fierce lunge, then reached out and grabbed her by the collar at her back, lifting her up like a mischievous kitten.

Being humiliated and lifted like this by Xiao Zheng, Catherine’s face turned a deeper shade of red, even her ears were flushed, her heart filled with rage. She scratched and clawed at Xiao Zheng, who wore a twisted smile but never allowed her to get closer to him by even an inch.

Xiao Zheng watched with interest at the girl in his hand. Though he had no particular fondness for foreign girls, he had to admit watching this girl in a fluster did remind him of a puffed-up American Shorthair kitten.

"Xiao Zheng, you bastard, let me go quickly, or I..."

"Or what?" Xiao Zheng smiled slightly, teasingly said, "You weren’t holding back a moment ago when you lunged. Could it be that you’re missing your husband?"

Catherine blushed, but shortly after, a hint of anger arose, feeling like she was being toyed with, she growled, "Evil God, if you don’t let go, when you regain your memory one day, I won’t let you off!"

"Not let me off? Dear, it looks like you’re the one in my hand right now. Who’s not letting whom off?"

Xiao Zheng held an ambiguous smile, touching his chin with his left hand. His gaze shone suggestively as he looked up and down Catherine’s sudden and alluring figure, lingering his eyes on her impressive chest.

Feeling Xiao Zheng’s gaze, Catherine sneered, not avoiding it at all. Instead, she puffed her chest up and leaned in, adding more coquettish allure to her proud figure.

"Whoa... that’s bold!" Xiao Zheng was taken aback by her actions, hurriedly withdrew his body, and with a strange look, he sighed lightly and put her down: "Alright, don’t cling to me anymore. I’m a very committed person."

With that, he shook his head and moved towards the courtyard.

Catherine climbed up from the ground in a rage, watching Xiao Zheng’s departing back with teeth-gritting anger, yet she dared not rush over to start another fight with him.

After all, no matter what means she used, the outcome would likely not differ much from before.

But she couldn’t swallow this bitterness, thinking how Xiao Zheng, the former Evil God, remained unmoved by her various antics, and now that he lost his memory, treated her so rudely!

In public, he dared to lift her like a domestic cat!

She bit her teeth hard, shouting at his retreating back, "Evil God, I will make sure you remember, mark my words!"

Hearing this, as Xiao Zheng was about to step into the mansion gate, his steps halted. He turned back to look at Catherine with furrowed brows.

Seeing his suddenly serious expression, without any of the previous joking warmth, Catherine shivered and instinctively stepped back two steps, then tried to muster her courage and said, "What are you pretending for? Sky Net is yours, not mine. Of course, you should regain your memory to solve these things!"

With that, she immediately closed her eyes, preparing for Xiao Zheng to come up again and lift her once more.

However, to her disappointment, Xiao Zheng never moved, not even speaking a word.

He merely looked blankly at the sky and then at the ground, finally casting his gaze back at Catherine with a long sigh.

"Actually, there are indeed things I should face," he shook his head, approached Catherine saying, "It’s just that I don’t like being pushed, so..."

Swish!

With a sound that ripped through the air emanating in front of Catherine, Xiao Zheng suddenly appeared right in front of her, his gaze steadily fixed on her.
