My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 106
Chapter 106 Hurt
The night deepened.
Stars could not be seen in the stark black night sky.
A gush of cold wind blew and made Mu Yu who was standing in front of the window shudder.
Looks like we’re in for a cold spell.
Would this coldness be the outcome of her feelings after she decides to divorce Qin Jinhuan?
She stared at the distance aimlessly with a bitter smile on her face.
She was never a person to deceive herself. Running away would never solve the problem.
When it came, it came. There was no use running away from it.
Click!
The sudden sound of the door opening startled her. She turned instinctively and saw Qin Jinhuan entering the room. He took off his jacket and went straight to the bathroom.
“Qin Jinhuan!”
Qin Jinhuan halted and looked toward the source of the voice. He was startled and his eyes were filled with confusion as he stared at her.
Mu Yu did not know the reason for his confusion whether it be her not yet asleep or her calling out to him with his full name. Nonetheless she was in no state to care about this. She took a few steps forward and said, “We need to talk.”
Qin Jinhuan did not answer, nor did he leave her be. He averted his eyes and continued to take off his shirt.
It was obvious that Mu Yu was used to him being cold toward her. She stepped forward with the divorce papers held tightly in her hand. She opened her grip, presented the papers and continued to repeat the same words she uttered before, “Let’s get a divorce.”
Qin Jinhuan’s fingers that were slowly unbuttoning his shirt stopped. He silently looked up to the papers. He let down his fingers and proceeded to enter the bathroom with a blank look.
“Qin Jinhuan!” Mu Yu rushed toward him as the volume of her voice started to get louder. “You signed the contract with me for the sake of your sick Grandpa. Since you know that Grandpa is not sick then there’s no reason for us to fake being married. We don’t need to keep this going!”
Qin Jinhuan suddenly halted in his steps. Mu Yu wasn’t able to dodge and almost ran into him. After standing still, she looked over at him anxiously.
Although he was staring at her, his gaze and expression did not falter. This made her unable to read what was actually in his mind, and all she could do was cowardly wait for his reply.
“You’re certain that you want a divorce?” After a while, he finally answered.
His voice was as attractive as she could remember, but it was the same as it was during the day. Cold and distant.
She felt her nose starting to get stuffy.
She finally realized that she still had hopes toward him even though he treated her like this.
She held back the bitterness that she felt and continued after a moment. She looked at him with teary eyes and sobbed, “Our marriage was all because of that silly contract. We thought that we loved each other so that we can continue with this marriage. But what happened today explained everything to me. Your grandfather is healthy, and you never loved me. Since our marriage has no meaning anymore, I hope you can agree to my request for a divorce.”
She looked straight at him as she was saying this. She was trying to see if there were any change of expression on his face to comfort her feelings.
In the end, she was disappointed. He looked as though he did not hear anything she was saying. He did not give an explanation that she was expecting to hear, instead he just coldly replied, “Do you know how much you will need to pay for the divorce?”
Huh, of course he would bring this up. He never had any affections toward her in the first place.
She blinked her eyes as she tried as hard as she could to not let her tears flow down. She took out a card from her pocket, “There is twenty million inside this card. I have already paid you back the twenty million which you used to propose to me. The PIN number is the last six digits of your phone number.”
“Where did you get the money?”
“That is none of your concern.” She handed him the divorce paper and the card together and said in a devastated voice, “Sign it.”
“Did Xin Yihan give it to you?”
“That is not your concern! You just need to sign the divorce papers, that’s it!” She was unable to contain her emotions and started to bawl and cry.
Qin Jinhuan sneered, “Xin Yihan’s company was facing problems and his financial situation was in a pinch, yet he still gave you the twenty million. Looks like he really does value you a lot!”
“Isn’t it the same with you and Yin Anran?” Mu Yu rebutted.
Her words made Qin Jinhuan’s expressions sink. He glared at her and went into the bathroom after saying, “We’ll talk about the divorce next time.”
She did not expect him to keep silent regarding Yin Anran. This made her feel extremely bitter. She followed him suit after seeing him go inside the bathroom and asked, “When is next time?”
“When I want a divorce.”
“Then when do you want the divorce?”
“I haven’t thought about it.” Qin Jinhuan replied and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
“What do you mean by that? Come out! Come out and explain yourself!” Mu Yu turned on the doorknob but it was locked. She slammed the door and shouted, “Get out! Get out and tell me.”
No matter how loud she slammed and screamed, the bathroom remained silent. Not even a sound of the water running, it was as if nobody was inside the bathroom.
She was completely angered by his indifferent attitude toward her. This made her feel even more wronged and she slammed on the door violently. Her voice was shaking due to her sadness.
“Qin Jinhuan! Get out of there! Get out! We will settle the divorce right here right now!”
She did not want to waste her time in this loveless marriage. She did not want to make herself suffer and wanted to end this as soon as she could and let herself be free.
She still did not receive any response from him even after how much she shouted. Mu Yu did not understand what he was doing inside the bathroom. She immediately remembered the transparent glass wall in the bathroom. She went around and took a peek from the glass. To her dismay he was just standing under the sprinkler without even turning it on. He stood there still without even budging. She wasn’t able to make out his face so she did not know what was on his mind.
But she did not intend to understand what was in his mind. She frantically slammed on the glass wall from the outside. She knew he could hear her.
But no matter how hard she shouted and slammed, he still did not respond to her. This made her extremely irate and she started to threaten, “I’m going to smash the wall if you don’t come out!”
As she saw him standing still like a brick and ignoring her, she coincidentally found a small stool beside her leg. Her head was full of adrenaline and immediately picked up the stool and smashed it toward the glass wall.
Bam!
Slam!
One, two, three times…
It was as if she was in a trance. She slammed the glass wall with all her might making it let out a very loud banging. Even though her hands were numb due to her banging on the glass, it still did not break as if it was made of gold. This made her anger rise. After she finished venting out, she threw the stool away and curled up in a corner of the wall and cried.
She always regarded herself as a composed and sensible person. She never even imagined herself being as barbaric as her current state now. But she really could not keep her composure.
“Are you finished freaking out?”
His unreserved rebuke woke her up and she finally realised that he had left the bathroom without her knowing. He stood there looking at her with a cold stare.
“I want a divorce! I want to terminate the contract I had with you!” She cried as she exclaimed.
“I was the one who made the contact. So only I have the final say for the divorce. You have no voice in deciding that!”
“Why? Why would you do this to me? What did I do wrong?” She angrily threw the divorce papers and card to him, “You fraud! Shameless cheater!”
“What did I cheat about?”
“You cheated on my feelings!”
“Feelings?” Qin Jinhuan sneered, “Did our marriage even have feelings in the first place?”
“It didn’t in the beginning, but after that…”
“Have I ever said that I loved you?”
Mu Yu was suddenly speechless and her face went pale. She was hurt by these words that he said mercilessly.
Indeed as far as she could remember, she was always the one who initiated everything in their relationship. She was the one who confessed to him first. And him, even though she was brave enough to fight for her love and him admitting her love toward him; even though he showed her love and care, he never did once utter the words love to her.
She always thought that when people were in love, as long as the both of them felt the same and cared about each other. And showed how much they cared for one another, then it would be the perfect love there will ever be. She never thought that love would make her rake up the past.
“You, love Yin Anran?”
“This is not something you should stick your nose in.”
The gentleness of his voice he let out when he said this deeply cut her. This made her feelings completely die down.
This was how one normally showed their love to one another.
Weng Yun said there was nothing between Qin Jinhuan and Yin Anran, those were all just lies!
“If you love her then why didn’t you reject me in the first place?!” She started getting hysterical.
If he was to reject her from the beginning she could have been rid of this pain and suffering. At the very least, she wouldn’t be in such a horrible state.
“Yin Anran? You are actually with Yin Anran?!” Qin Xiaozhi’s angry bellow roared behind him.
“Grandpa?” Mu Yu who was drenched in tears was horrified. She just realised that the window of their veranda was open. And the verandas of their bedrooms were connected.
“Are you really together with Yin Anran?! She’s already back?!” Qin Xiaozhi questioned him as he flung his cane to the ground with his face shrouded in anger.
Even Grandpa knew who Yin Anran was. It seemed that Qin Jinhuan had known Yin Anran for a long time.
Then why did they even bother being in a relationship?
Did he really only need comfort when he was in a slump?
Mu Yu was helpless.
“Get her out of An City quickly!”
“You have no power to throw her out. That is her freedom.” Qin Jinhuan’s reply made Grandpa filled with rage.
“To hell with her freedom! I’m warning you, if you ever let me see her in An City, I will definitely… Argh……” Qin Xiaozhi paused suddenly and grabbed on his chest with a painful look on his face.
“Boss!” Qi Hao immediately ran and ordered Qi Han, “Hurry and get the cardio-reliever pills!”
“On my way!” Qi Han immediately rushed out.
“Grandpa, are you okay? What’s wrong?” Mu Yu was horrified as she saw Qin Xiaozhi’s face became more and more in pain. She anxiously asked as she ignored her issues with Qin Jinhuan and rushed forward to support him.
Qin Xiaozhi’s breaths became more and more frantic, yet he still remembered to order Qin Jinhuan in a stern voice, “Make, make sure… Yin An… Ran… Leaves……”
“You don’t need to feign sickness anymore. I won’t make Anran leave An City no matter what.” Qin Jinhuan said with a blank stare.
“You, you bast-” Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Xiaozhi’s eyes glared as he fell straight back.
