“Brother, I’m begging you. Please go home quickly. Don’t make Su Bin hate me even more!”
Unable to withstand his sister’s pleas, Qin Dalong reluctantly agreed.
“Then we’ll head back home for now. We can discuss the separate room matter after he finishes his exam. Just remember, don’t let him take advantage of you at his house!”
“Yes, I promise I won’t let him take advantage!”
Qin Zhenzhen saw her brothers and sisters-in-law off, ensuring they left the premises.
Upon hearing the conversation between Qin Zhenzhen and her brother, the villagers couldn’t help but discuss amongst themselves.
“There’s something seriously wrong with that chubby girl’s brain. She’s shameless. Can she really not see that Su Bin isn’t lacking in flesh?”
“Haha, you’re right. A man being thin isn’t a bad thing. His bones won’t hurt anyone, you know?”
“But the main point is that Su Bin isn’t even that thin.”
“Compared to her, he must seem incredibly slim.”
“Hahaha… It’s too hilarious! We can’t stop laughing!”
Qin Zhenzhen paid no attention to the villagers’ chatter and confidently walked into the house.
Once Su Bin comprehended the entire situation, he reprimanded his fifth brother and sixth sister with a stern expression. “Stop taking her belongings without permission!”
The chubby girl cherished food so much that taking even a piece of her pastry was akin to taking her life. That’s why she was so anxious that she ended up knocking her head against the stone.
Fortunately, she didn’t perish from her kowtows. If she had, he wouldn’t have had to take the exam.
If her four brothers didn’t beat him to a pulp, they would beat him until he couldn’t get up.
Su Ning and Su Cheng lowered their heads, acknowledging their mistake. “We understand that we were wrong. We won’t do it again.”
The young and old siblings fell into line. Qin Zhenzhen knew she had to listen to her third brother.
Su Bin questioned once more, “Did she really lose all that blood?”
His doubts still lingered in his mind.
By all reasoning, with such a substantial amount of blood, the wound must have been deep. He might have even collapsed from such an injury.
However, he paid close attention to the bandage on her head. There was only a small trace of blood, and he hadn’t called a doctor to treat her. How did she manage to tend to her wound?
Furthermore, she seemed to be in a composed state of mind.
What made it even stranger was that she appeared to be a different person now. Her way of handling matters was completely altered from before. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was amiss.
Su Ning nodded. “It was all her blood. Initially, I was worried she might have died. She looked as though she was on the verge of death. But after she went into the room and came out, she seemed to return to her usual self.”
Su Bin couldn’t help but think she was some sort of monster for surviving after losing so much blood.
At that moment, Qin Zhenzhen entered the house and approached Su Bin directly. She locked eyes with him. “I have something to discuss with you.”
Su Bin gazed back at her with cold indifference. “What is it?”
It was those very eyes that had taken an interest in him. One day, he would extract those eyes from her!
“Let’s talk in the study,” Qin Zhenzhen proposed.
Avoiding Su Bin’s hateful glare, she turned and headed towards the study.
A cruel glint flashed in Su Bin’s eyes.
What did she have in mind?
Even if she intended to force herself on him, going to the study was an inappropriate choice!
The siblings’ minds raced in that direction, and their expressions turned grim.
Su Qing anxiously cautioned him, “Third Brother, you shouldn’t go to the study. I suspect she wants to use force…”
However, Su Bin had already made his way to the study, wearing a dark expression.
He might fear her four brothers to some extent, but why should he fear her?
If that chubby girl dared to lay a finger on him, he would use the inkstone to crack her skull!
She shouldn’t assume he was powerless just because he appeared feeble!
Su Bin remained on guard the entire time. Unexpectedly, Qin Zhenzhen got straight to the point. “Su Bin, let’s get a divorce. I’m being sincere!”
“The reason I changed my mind earlier was that I didn’t want a confrontation between our families.”
“Truth be told, I’ve already made up my mind. A forced marriage can never be sweet.”
“Furthermore, I don’t love you anymore.”
She had already expressed this once, and now she reiterated it with even greater emphasis.
