Chapter 786: Chapter 760: Xiao Qiang is Also Desperate with Such a Daughter-in-law
Other men would be over the moon to discover such an opportunity, to act like a fool when drunk, seize the chance to take advantage during a game, after all, who wouldn’t want to experience the favor of a beauty? But instead there’s this man who doesn’t understand the subtleties of human emotions, running so far away as if he’s escaping death —— despite her posturing, Boss Qian can’t help but admit that she is quite satisfied with Xiao Qiang’s reaction.
Shuixian eagerly hoped that the call wouldn’t get through, but the call that wouldn’t connect during their breakup, amazingly got through right at this moment!
She didn’t even have time to hang up, because Zhu Dexi picked up almost instantly.
“Shuixian!” His voice carried a trace of delight.
“Dexi…” Just hearing his voice made her want to cry. She thought she had become strong, but his familiar voice, simply addressing her by her name, was enough to shatter her defenses.
This scene was actually quite touching, but then there was someone willingly playing the villain, interrupting their tender moment.
...
“Get to the point!” Xiao Qian reminded from the side.
Shuixian bit her lip, silent. How could she possibly utter those words?
“Oh, I’ll chat with Daodao then, saying that you still have feelings for him, that the breakup was all nonsense, and tell him to hurry back and help you——” Xiao Qian threatened knowingly.
“No!” Shuixian hurriedly stopped Xiao Qian. She had broken up with Daodao because she didn’t want him to come back, wouldn’t saying that now be undoing all their previouis efforts?
“I’ll say it!” Shuixian spoke resolutely, sounding like she was ready to sacrifice herself.
“Shuixian, what’s wrong?” Daodao was still oblivious to the chaos on this end.
Xiao Qian waved at Yu Minglang, signaling for him to come back quickly. The real drama was about to start!
Yu Minglang watched Xiao Qian with caution, asking, are you sure you won’t give away another kiss of yours?
Xiao Qian made a guarantee gesture, and only then did Yu Minglang cautiously move towards them.
Moments later, Shuixian spoke with a heartbreaking voice, her voice trembling.
“I… I’m pregnant.”
“What?!” Daodao was thrilled at first, but soon something felt off. They hadn’t been intimate for months, how could she be pregnant?
“The child… is not yours, it’s Mai Hadi’s… I, I’m sorry. You should forget me.”
After saying these words, Shuixian felt as though all her strength had been drained, her world collapsing. Not only had she destroyed her own love, but she’d also left a negative impression in the heart of the person she loved.
When he thinks of her in the future, wouldn’t the impression be terribly negative, terribly shameless?
“Shuixian, where are you?” After a few seconds of silence, Zhu Dexi only managed to ask this question.
“Where I am doesn’t matter, we should stop contacting each other in the future.” Shuixian could barely speak through her tears.
“Tell me, where are you!” His voice was filled with urgency.
“Goodbye!”
Shuixian decisively ended the call, feeling like her heart shattered tonight.
It’s over, everything is over. Wasn’t this the result she wanted? Why did her heart ache so painfully?
Shuixian only noticed the world blurring through her tears, then it seemed as if the earth itself shifts beneath her. She collapsed on the floor.
Xiao Qian quickly supported her.
“Lay her flat.” Yu Minglang directed, Xiao Qian and Liu Mei laid Shuixian flat on the beach, her head resting on a piece of clothing.
“What do we do now! Sister-in-law, isn’t your joke a bit too much? Now she has fainted because of the shock.” Seeing Shuixian faint, Liu Mei started panicking. Should we call an ambulance?
“People tend to experience temporary fainting spells under severe emotional stress. Let’s wait a couple of minutes, there’s no need to send her to the hospital for now.”
As Yu Minglang was explaining, his phone rang. It was Zhu Dexi calling.
“How is Shuixian!” Zhu Dexi asked in a pressing tone.
“My wife made her faint from shock——But you can’t blame this on my wife entirely, who asked your wife to play such a deep and profound game of love?”
“How is she now!!! Hearing that she had fainted, Zhu Dexi’s soul nearly left his body.”
“She looks fine for the time being.”
“What do you mean by ‘for the time being’? Tell me where you guys are!”
“We’re at the seaside bathing beach nearest to the camp site.”
“Watch over Shuixian for me, I’ll be there in ten minutes—Driver, can you drive faster?!”
“Go any faster and the police will be after me, what’s the hurry!”
The voice of the taxi driver came through, slow and unhurried.
Yu Minglang hung up the phone, glanced at Xiao Qian who was watching over Shuixian, sighed, and walked towards the barbecue stall, desperately eating.
“Brother, can’t you be a little more sensible! Shuixian is like this, how can you still eat!” Liu Mei watched Yu Minglang start eating and pointed at him angrily.
“If I don’t eat more, where will I get the energy to be beaten up? With such a naughty wife, what can I do…” Yu Minglang had accepted his fate. His wife’s extreme method might have been satisfying to use, but he could guess the consequences.
Zhu Dexi was usually not temperamental and would nag and persuade others patiently. However, there was one thing about these staid scholars — they rarely lose their temper, but when they do, it’s like a volcanic eruption. Xiao Qian messing about like this will definitely cause Zhu Dexi to explode.
It wasn’t that Yu Minglang couldn’t defeat Zhu Dexi; rather, considering his wife’s extreme methods, he would be too embarrassed to fight back. So, he decided to eat more to replenish his energy and prepare for a severe beating. After all, he was the one who ended up with such a wife…
Shuixian woke up slowly, and after seeing Xiao Qian’s face, she burst into tears. Xiao Qian embraced her, gently patting her back.
“Qian’er… I have truly lost him this time.”
“Uh huh, it’s okay, cry it out, let out all the pain in your heart.” Xiao Qian patted her back, helping her regulate her breathing a bit at a time.
Shuixian would never find herself crying so desolately after this moment. When she stood at the peak of power, all her sadness would be replaced by strength. Even at this moment, the experience of crying heartily like a normal girl would be considered a past experience.
But the memory of this experience was too profound for Shuixian at this moment. She had forgotten her family training, forgotten her identity, and even forgotten that she shouldn’t reveal her emotions in public. In the arms of Boss Qian, she did not want to grow up, to act like she was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl who had lost the most important person in her life, feeling sad and distressed.
“You made up your mind to break up a long time ago, didn’t you? Now you’ve just expressed what you’ve always thought in a clean and decisive manner. So why are you crying so bitterly?” Xiao Qian guided Shuixian’s emotions, her eyes gazing at a figure running towards them at a distance.
Yu Minglang also saw it and resignedly grabbed his beer – even if he was to be beaten to death, he’d at least be a ghost who’d had his fill of food and drink~
“I had made up my mind to break up, but breaking up doesn’t mean I don’t love him. I know I’ve grown up, I shouldn’t behave like a child, as an entrepreneur, I shouldn’t have such sentimentality. But I can’t control my heart, I can’t control my longing for him, what should I do, Qian’er, what should I do!”
“Keep talking, let out all the words you have kept in your heart.” Xiao Qian encouraged Shuixian.
What do you think?
