My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 140
Chapter 140 Mu Yu’s Grievance
Words were forming at the tip of Qin Jinhuan’s tongue, but before he could utter them, his lips were suddenly pressed against by those of Mu Yu. He was caught by surprise, upon which his movements suddenly became stiff. He also unknowingly tightened his grip on her arm.
Yet Mu Yu took his unresponsiveness as hesitation.
She didn’t think he would hesitate, which made her disappointed and annoyed. She then felt her arms being grasped tightly, which suggested that he was trying to push her away. Therefore, she grew angrier and snaked her arms around the back of his head to put more pressure on his mouth and even bit his lips.
Qin Jinhuan took a deep breath and was about to kiss her back. However, she had already backed away and let go of him. She only gave him an evil eye and shook his hands off.
“Yu!”
He grabbed hold of her hand.
“What are you doing?!” She stared at him with her eyes wide open. She then tried to shake his hand off and break free from his grip.
However, he expected that this time, allowing her no chance to shake his hand off, whereupon he pulled her to his arms.
Frustrated and steaming, she didn’t hesitate much and pinched his flesh as soon as she felt his body.
“Ouch, Yu!” He painfully let go of her, but seeing her backing away, he promptly reacted and grabbed hold of her hand.
With her hand held and restrained, the angry Mu Yu quickly pinched him like mad with her other hand. She seized the opportunity to pull her hand away when he loosened his grip on her. She then proceeded to pinch him with both of her hands.
He was unable to dodge, but as he noticed her mad expression, he decided to endure all her punishment. Once again, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tighter this time, while gently whispering her name.
With her body restrained, she couldn’t help but succumb to the man’s strength although her hands were free. Besides, her love for Qin Jinhuan got the better of her, in which she decided to stop pinching him. Instead, she snarled with her fists clenched.
“Take your filthy hands off me! Or… I will…”
What does he mean?
Didn’t he just resist my kiss?
And why is he kissing me now?
Is he playing hard to get? Or is it because he felt being taken for granted?
She gave in to her anger and tried to push him away again, but she suddenly changed her mind when she placed her hands on his waist.
Why must I push him away? Wasn’t I the one who made the first move to kiss him?
Although I may not be able to dress myself up right here, I can at least be more aggressive in my advances. Furthermore, I can’t wait to see how wild he can get.
Besides, it wouldn’t hurt to kiss anyway.
Upon thinking about that, she quickly took control of the situation by moving her hands from his waist to his back and hugged him tightly. Then, she closed her eyes while indulging in his gentle and loving caress.
“Yu…”
After a long while, Qin Jinhuan moved away from her lips to her ears and gently whispered her name.
Although his gentle voice was like an enchanting spell that turned her on, she didn’t give in to the rush of excitement within her.
After licking her lips and swallowing the saliva, she responded with an affirmative hum. Yet she didn’t care to look at his expression, seemingly still reminiscing about every bit of the moment during their kiss.
“Don’t you ever dare mention about divorce again. Do you hear me?” Qin Jinhuan commanded in a gentle tone.
“Didn’t you already sign the divorce paper?” Mu Yu pouted and snorted a firm humph with a bitter look on her face. “I can’t believe you told me to draft the divorce agreement!”
Nonetheless, Qin Jinhuan silently pulled her to bed and took the agreement from the bed. Then, he proceeded to tear the agreement into pieces.
“Hey! Hey!” Mu Yu tried to snatch the papers, but it was too late as they were all torn and thrown into the trash can. After that, she glared at him and said, “I racked my brain to draft the whole agreement out!”
Qin Jinhuan frowned and looked at the trash can. “No, you racked your brain to tell me you don’t want to divorce am I right? So, aren’t you happy now that I’ve torn the divorce agreement into pieces?”
Mu Yu shook her head and kept her chest up while she snorted. “I know you’re going to laugh at me, but let me tell you, I’m not going to divorce you! So, don’t ever think about marrying Yin Anran! You might as well just forget about marrying her!”
“Who told you I’d be marrying Yin Anran?” Qin Jinhuan couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“It’s obvious enough! Plus, I’m not blind either,” Upon saying that, Mu Yu took two steps back and kept a distance with him. She then warned, “Even though we will not divorce, you and I are just husband and wife in name. If you dare to cross me again, I will make sure you suffer.”
“Oh really? How are you going to make me suffer? Do you want to tell me so I can be prepared?”
“Of course, I’ll do it with a scalpel. So, here is a word of advice. You better stay away from me! I’ve already thrown your golden scalpel away and bought a new one online as a weapon for self-defense. The blade is razor-sharp, and I could slice your flesh or even cut your bone off with it. Therefore, if you ever touch the tip of my blade, you won’t be as lucky as Dong Wanqing.” Mu Yu tried to sound dramatic while frightening him.
Apparently, she knew that blades made of gold were softer and that she must have also learned about the news of Dong Wanqing’s condition.
Qin Jinhuan then pulled a serious face and directly asked, “Where is my golden scalpel? Where have you thrown it?”
“Into the trash can, of course.”
In fact, she didn’t want to tell him that the blade was actually in his drawer. After all, it was made of gold. She couldn’t imagine the amount of money she had to pay if she had really thrown the blade away.
Although that was how she thought deep down, she acted as if she didn’t care at all and said, “What’s the big deal with golden blades? I don’t care even though it’s made of gold.”
“Then, what do you care about?”
“I only care about the one that Yihan gave me.”
At the thought of the missing scalpel, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sadness, similar to how she felt toward Qin Jinhuan’s unpleasant attitude.
That was a gift from Yihan, someone whom she respected and saluted!
Of course, she wasn’t planning on asking Qin Jinhuan where the blade was anyway. Based on her understanding of his personality, he wouldn’t let her find the blade so easily if he had really thrown it away.
“Hey! What’s wrong?!” She was startled by Qin Jinhuan who suddenly stepped forward, in which she took two steps back.
“Say it again.”
“Why do I have to tell you? Why must I do what you told me to?”
If it weren’t for Xin Yihan whom she was afraid that Qin Jinhuan would seek revenge on, she wished she could say, “I care for the gift Yihan gave me, so what? I care about Yihan, so what? Aren’t you concerned about Yin Anran as well?”
“Sit down.”
“Why do I have to sit down?” She didn’t understand what he meant and could only stare at him in confusion.
“Sit down!”
He suddenly raised his voice. She was frightened and obediently sat down as told.
Qin Jinhuan then gazed at her with a pleasant look and sat next to her on the bed. After staring at her for a few seconds, he said, “Promise me that we’ll talk to each other properly from now on, instead of speculating about each other’s intentions.”
Mu Yu remained silent and pursed her lips while looking at him. She didn’t understand why he would say that.
Qin Jinhuan looked at her with a serious gaze and said, “I’ll explain this to you one last time. Things between Yin Anran and me are not like what you think. I made a promise to her dying sister to look after her. Therefore, in order to fulfill my promise, I’ve been taking care of her until now.”
“Then, what about you and her sister…”
“Yin Anjing passed away ten years ago. Whatever it was between her and me is now history, so you don’t have to take it to heart.”
“Why not?” Mu Yu sounded agitated. “Is it because you haven’t gotten over her? Since she looks so much like her sister. Besides, she is always so clingy to you. Therefore, it’s easy for you to treat her as her sister and grow attached to her.”
Qin Jinhuan’s gaze darkened. “Who told you I haven’t gotten over her?”
“Stop asking who told me. I just want you to tell me whether it is true.”
“No, it isn’t.”
“You’re lying!” Mu Yu angrily stood up. “If you had really gotten over her, you wouldn’t have chosen her favorite horror movies, or buy her favorite sour plum soup and popcorn! If it hadn’t been for her, you wouldn’t have loved Kentucky’s egg tart; you wouldn’t have loved eating parsley; you wouldn’t have held my hands tightly when crossing the road, or given me a white dress as a gift! All this shows that you still haven’t gotten over her!”
Upon saying that, tears were starting to well up in her eyes. “You don’t love me at all, but you will never divorce me, only because you were forced by the Old Master and worried about his condition. Actually, that was not the reason at all, was it? Instead, it was because your heart is with that woman. When she died, your heart died with her. So, you must have thought that it no longer mattered to marry any woman. Yet, it just so happened that I was in her place, destined to live in her shadows for the rest of my life. Therefore, I can never replace her in your heart! However, the saddest thing was, this woman had a sister who looked just like her to continue loving you in her place! Qin Jinhuan, if you are a man, stop fooling me with your nonsense, which is utterly pointless. I may not be smart, but I’m not dumb either.”
Tears began rolling down her cheeks while she spoke and raised her voice in agitation. In the end, she could no longer fight her tears, so she covered her face and started sobbing.
“Is that all?” Qin Jinhuan finally responded after a long while.
Mu Yu was heartbroken and mad. Sobbing so hard that words failed her, she could only give him an evil eye.
After a brief pause, Qin Jinhuan continued saying, “You said you’re not dumb? To be honest, you’re the dumbest person I’ve ever met!”
“Qin Jinhuan! You…”
“I’ve been looking after Yin Anran for ten years, and she is now twenty one. If I had really taken a fancy to her, you wouldn’t even have had a chance to know me, let alone being my wife or just a wife in name. If I don’t love you, why would I care to explain so much to you?”
Upon hearing the last sentence, Mu Yu paused in disbelief and asked, “Even though you don’t have a thing for Yin Anran, the same cannot be said for her sister.”
“Listen to me! I’m going to say this only once, so look into my eyes!” Qin Jinhuan walked up to her, pinching her chin to make her look up and meet her eyes. He then started explaining, “Kentucky’s egg tart, horror movies, detective novels, parsley and white dresses were all my mother’s favorites. My mother was red-green color blind. Therefore, ever since the moment I was able to read traffic lights, I have always held her hand when crossing the road.”
“But I heard Yin Anjing…”
“She was a nice lady. However, ever since she met me, she had been trying to change herself in order to please me. She was kind-hearted and thoughtful, but I’ve never loved her. Instead, I had been using her to express my dissatisfaction toward the Old Master and resist him. In the end, she died because of me. Therefore, I’ve failed her.”
“Is it true? Tell me. Is it true?!” Mu Yu took on a staggered expression.
With the sudden turn of events, she couldn’t accept the shocking truth at that moment.
She looked down in guilt, thinking that her disbelief had made things hard for Qin Jinhuan. Suddenly, he seized her arm and took her outside.
“Hey, you…”
“I’ll take you to a place.”
“Where are we going? Hey, I’m still in my pajamas!”
