My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife

Chapter 488 488: Better a Short Pain than a Long One



"Divorce certificate?"

Qin Yu stared intensely at the red book in the lawyer's hand, his voice trembling slightly.

Was it over between himself and Yan Mingyu?

Was she no longer his wife?

"I... I..."

Qin Yu clutched his chest, his face deathly pale, feeling as if his entire heart had shattered.

"Mr. Qin, are you alright? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"

The bespectacled man supported Qin Yu by the shoulder, asking with concern.

"No... It's not necessary. Give me the divorce certificate, you've been a great help..."

After Qin Yu received the divorce certificate, he waited for the bespectacled man to close the door upon leaving before lying down again. He stared unblinkingly at the ceiling as if he could see Yan Mingyu's dignified, elegant, and beautiful face.

Then, something cold slid down his cheek!

A pain that cut deep into his bones began to spread from the depths of his soul throughout his body, making it incredibly difficult for Qin Yu to breathe.

Thud, thud...

He didn't know how much time had passed when there came another knock at the door.

Qin Yu's scattered consciousness only then became vaguely clearer.

"Wife?"

Qin Yu suddenly sat up, hoping fervently that the person coming through the door would be Yan Mingyu's tall, slender figure.

"Qin Yu, are you feeling better?"

However, the person who walked in was Lu Wenrou.

Seeing Qin Yu disheveled and haggard, Lu Wenrou showed a look of distress: "Before I escorted President Yan abroad, she left a message for you. You've been unconscious all this time, and only now do I have the chance to tell you!"

"What did she say?"

Qin Yu asked hurriedly.

"She only said six words: 'Loved, no hate, take care!'"

Lu Wenrou blinked; as someone who had never tasted the bitterness of love, she clearly did not fully understand the meaning of these six words.

"I understand..."

Qin Yu's eyes reddened fiercely, he clenched his teeth, refusing to let the tears fall.

Although Yan Mingyu had chosen to divorce him, it wasn't because she hated him but because of the series of traps set by Zhao Qilin, leaving her no other choice.

Divorce, going abroad.

It was to protect her, and also to protect himself.

Wife, just wait for me; once I've solved all the troubles, I will definitely win you back!

The six words Lu Wenrou brought reignited hope in Qin Yu.

He clenched his fist and silently swore to himself.

"Right, you've been unconscious during this time; Pei Luoyan hasn't contacted you. She reported all the intelligence to me, and we've made some significant progress."

Seeing Qin Yu transform from utter dejection to full of fighting spirit within a few minutes, Lu Wenrou's face showed relief as she started to discuss important matters.

"Huh... What's the specific situation?"

Qin Yu exhaled a breath of foul air before asking.

Starting today, he not only had to continuously break through in the martial way but also had to grasp formidable power. The entry point was to capture the Living Yama and secure the position of Dragon Gate Leader.

Only by doing this could he better protect those around him.

"Living Yama has an underboss named Greedy Wolf who's already taken the bait. However, this person comes from the undercover Martial Forest, and his cultivation is very high. Fearing we might startle them, we let Pei Luoyan steady him and waited for you to awaken to make a decision. We only have this one chance; we must succeed and cannot afford to fail!"

Lu Wenrou detailed the intelligence she had at hand.

"Greedy Wolf? Undercover Martial Forest?"

Qin Yu frowned and blurted out, "What is the Undercover Martial Forest?"

"In this world, where there is light, there is darkness. Where there is justice, there is evil. Simply put, the dark Martial Forest is a power formed by a bunch of martial arts outcasts bound together, devoid of morality, without any bottom line, willing to do any terrible deed for profit."

"However, their presence is deeply concealed; nobody truly knows how powerful the dark Martial Forest is or who exactly is in it."

"The only information we hold is that the people of the dark Martial Forest are all highly skilled in cultivation. A few years ago, in order to capture a master of the dark Martial Forest, we from Dragon Gate lost two leaders in the process! Therefore, knowing that this Greedy Wolf is also from the dark Martial Forest, we dare not act rashly."

Lu Wenrou spoke with a trace of seriousness on her face.

"So that's how it is!"

Qin Yu nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "In that case, you get in touch with Pei Luoyan, draw out Greedy Wolf, and I'll make the capture!"

"Okay, if you make a move, there should be no problem. Pei Luoyan said that Greedy Wolf is probably at the Half-Step Pill Holding level, and you even knocked out Zhao Qilin, so you're more than enough to deal with him!"

Lu Wenrou nodded and responded.

"Hmm. By the way, Wenrou, thank you for helping my wife leave the country!"

When Qin Yu called Yan's father, he still felt something was amiss, wondering how Zhao Qilin could possibly allow Yan Mingyu to leave with her family; it turned out that Lu Wenrou had helped.

"You are a leader of Dragon Gate, and Mr. Yan is your family member. These are all things we at Dragon Gate should do!"

Lu Wenrou replied politely.

"Then I'll rest this afternoon, and we'll take action tonight!"

"Okay!"

After discussing the details of that night's action with Qin Yu for a while, Lu Wenrou left the hospital room.

Qin Yu then closed his eyes and began to circulate his mental method. Having been unconscious for a full three days, his meridians were now nearly back to normal. With his energy restored, healing his injuries would be much quicker.

It is worth mentioning that the Shen Zhao Jing, in addition to generating vital energy, can also mold the meridians and bones, making one's body exceptionally sturdy.

Come evening, Han Bing pushed the door open and entered, which is when Qin Yu finally opened his eyes.

"How are you feeling?"

In her hands, Han Bing carried some nutritional supplements.

"Pretty much back to normal."

Qin Yu stated flatly.

Previously, he had been somewhat conflicted about how to handle the relationship between Han Bing and Yan Mingyu. However, the six words brought by Lu Wenrou made him firmly decide that from now on, he would unwaveringly love only Yan Mingyu, never again doing anything to make her sad, which of course included keeping his distance from Han Bing.

"Then let's go home!"

Han Bing looked deeply at Qin Yu, feeling he had changed somehow, yet she couldn't quite pinpoint how.

"No, what happened between you and me was a mistake to begin with. I don't want to cause any more misunderstandings with Mingyu."

Qin Yu shook his head.

"What do you mean?"

Han Bing's tone turned cold as she raised her eyebrows.

"I've touched you once, but I've paid the price for it, jumping off a building and walking a round at the gates of hell. The second time, you should know, it was Zhao Qilin who drugged us. You should go find him. From now on, we can be friends, but definitely not lovers!"

Qin Yu said in a calm and resolute voice.

"Qin Yu..."

Han Bing's eyes instantly reddened, and she angrily said, "Do you think, with just a few words, you can completely distance yourself from me? I'm telling you, it's impossible! If you won't be with me, you won't be with any other woman either. That's what I, Han Bing, have said. If you don't believe it, just try!"

"Anyway, I'm someone who has already died once. You can kill or maim me as you please!"

Qin Yu looked back at Han Bing's fiery gaze, his expression indifferent and calm.

"Slap!"

"Qin Yu... You bastard!"

Han Bing slapped Qin Yu's face, and then stormed out of the hospital room angrily.

Alas, better a short pain than a long one.

Qin Yu sighed, quickly gathered his things, and also left the hospital.

Tonight, he must capture the underling of Living Yama. A man should put his career first; he'll put aside romantic entanglements for the time being!
