“Oh my God! Who is that?” Mu Yu cried in surprise as she quickly shoved Qin Jinhuan away.
“No one. No one at all. You guys can go on.” The mumbles of Mu Yu’s parents sounded in the dark before the sound of their rushed footsteps followed as they quickly shifted away. They shut the bedroom door behind them.
“Told you they’d go to bed.” Qin Jinhuan’s smug voice emerged in the dark.
“Don’t you have better things to do?” Mu Yu pushed him away angrily.
“Alright. Stop being mad at me. I know I brought supper home a little too late tonight, but I really had matters to handle. Please forgive me, my beloved wife…” he pleaded.
“You had matters to handle? What sort of matters involve following a woman into a room in the middle of the night when it’s just the two of you in there?” Mu Yu said with a scoff.
“Anran was ill, so I had to go over and take a look…” he explained.
“Woah, I didn’t know you, the alm
D-Did… Did I go too far with my joke? Was I too confident thinking that I was the brightest star in his sky?“What time is Huan coming over, Yu?” Hu Meiling wiped her hands on her apron as she stepped out into the living room. She was shocked to see the look on Mu Yu’s face. “Why are you crying, Yu? What happened?”Mu Ziyao quickly left the dishes on the dining table before rushing to the living room when he heard this. “What is it? What happened?”It was only then did Mu Yu realize the tears streaming down her cheeks. Flustered, she quickly wiped her face with her sleeve before attempting to conceal the truth. “It’s nothing. I was just too touched after watching some TV drama.”Hu Meiling gave Mu Yu’s shirt a tug. “Don’t lie to your mother. Tell me—what happened?”Mu Yu sniffed as she realized that a kid’s cartoon was being broadcasted on TV. “It’s really nothing, I…” She cleared her throat.“Is it becaus
“She’s in the emergency room?! What happened?!” Qin Jinhuan exclaimed in shock. “Which hospital is she at?”“It was a car accident! She’s at Town Hospital!” Mu Ziyao cried.Hu Meiling felt her gaze becoming blurry as she slapped herself on her thighs in agony. “My God! My baby Yu!”“Meiling!” Mu Ziyao steadied his wife quickly, but he then lost his grip on his phone. The screen turned black immediately after it smashed onto the ground. The words ‘car accident’ echoed in Qin Jinhuan’s head—he could no longer care for Hu Meiling or anyone else right then. Instead, he charged toward Bian Zijun. “Take care of them!” he said before getting into his own car and howled at Huang Bo. “Head to Town Hospital! Hurry!”“Yes, Boss!’ Huang Bo stepped on the gas immediately.“Hey! Wait for us! We want to go too!” Hu Meiling shoved her husband away as she began to chase the car. “We’ll take this car instead!” Bian Zijun s
“Qin Jinhuan!” she cried as she stomped out after him.“Stop right there, you brat!” an old man’s voice said.Grandpa? Mu Yu was utterly shocked as her gaze searched around and fell on Qin Xiaozhi. I clearly reminded Rong Ying not to tell anyone else about this when I borrowed Director Qiao’s phone to give her a call. How did Grandpa find out about this? However, she didn't know that both her parents had called Qin Xiaozhi the moment she ran out of the house; Qin Xiaozhi had been tracking both her and Qin Jinhuan’s whereabouts since then.“Grandpa? What are you doing here?” Mu Yu no longer attempted to go after Qin Jinhuan. Instead, she quickly rushed forward to help Qin Xiaozhi. After all, it was her fault for getting an old man to step out of the house in such terribly cold weather. However, Qin Xiaozhi pushed her away before turning toward Qin Jinhuan. “Where are you going?” he asked.The old man, along with Mu Yu’s parents, had
Qin Jinhuan picked up the phone right away. “Yes?”“Yu—Huan? Where is Yu?”“Hold on a minute.” Knowing that Rong Jian must be calling Mu Yu for work-related matters, Qin Jinhuan walked quickly into the room without asking anything. “Yu, it’s Rong Jian calling.”“Huh? Chief Rong?” Mu Yu hurriedly got out of bed and trotted over to take the cell phone without even wearing her slippers.“Take your time! A few seconds won’t make much difference!”Ignoring Qin Jinhuan’s ‘nagging’, Mu Yu took the cell phone and said, “Hello, Chief Rong.”“Yu, have you visited Rubing today?”“Oh, no!” Only then did Mu Yu recall having planned to visit Feng Rubing that afternoon. Frustrated with herself, she apologized. “I’m sorry. I was put off by something else.”“Could you please go to her place and check up on her? Her cell phone has been switched off, so I worry that something might have happened to
“What’s going on?” Qin Jinhuan asked the doctor hastily while staring at the emergency room.The doctor calmly explained, “The patient’s high fever hasn’t subsided, and she isn’t in full possession of her senses, which conjured up something at the bottom of her heart that she usually refused to confront. So we need to find her family members to understand her situation to solve her problems by taking the correct actions.”Feng Rubing’s scream could be heard again from the emergency room as the doctor spoke. Mu Yu’s heart clenched as she asked, “So is Madam Feng in a serious condition right now?”“Are you referring to the patient? She’ll stop exhibiting such symptoms once her temperature comes down and she’s come to her senses,” said the doctor. Then, he changed the subject. “Does she often suffer from insomnia and nightmares?”Mu Yu was startled for a moment before she nodded immediately. She didn’t know whether Feng Rubing was oft
“My sister would never murder someone! Mrs. Qin, Huan, you guys must have gotten it wrong!” Feng Qiqi cried.“Yes, yes. We got it all wrong. It was all a mistake. Don’t cry, Qiqi.” Mu Yu quickly rushed forward to explain herself. But Feng Qiqi shoved her away as she continued crying. “I want to see my sister, Mrs. Qin.”“Your sister’s still getting an IV drip; you’d scare her if you barged in like that.” Qin Jinhuan quickly stopped Feng Qiqi as he gently spoke to the young girl. “Your hand is not fully healed yet, so you shouldn’t be roaming around.”Feng Qiqi brushed her tears off as she spoke. “Huan, my hand’s fine, and I won’t make any noise. I just want to see my sister, okay? I promise not to disturb her!”“Okay. Come here.” Qin Jinhuan gently held onto Feng Qiqi’s shoulders before guiding her over to the glass window that allowed them to observe the insides of the room. “Your sister has been overworking herself recently. The
“What do you mean, something odd?” asked Mu Yu anxiously.“Ru Bing is—”Rong Jian was interrupted when the door was pushed open as Rong Ying walked in. Mu Yu knew she came to look for Feng Qiqi as she explained hurriedly, “Ying, Qiqi had gone back already.”Earlier, Qin Jinhuan had sent Cheng Xiang to follow Feng Qiqi back, so Mu Yu wasn’t worried about her safety.“Yu, I know that, but I’m not here to look for Qiqi,” said Rong Ying faintly while she handed a bag to Rong Jian. “The canteen is already closed, so I’ve ordered some noodles for you. Hope you don’t mind.”“Chief Rong, you haven’t eaten!?” Mu Yu was surprised because it was almost 11.00PM.“I didn’t have time to eat because I was rushing back. But I did eat some biscuits on the way, so I’m not that hungry.”Rong Ying looked irritated when she saw Rong Jian refusing to accept the bag, saying that he was not hungry. She slammed the ba
Mu Yu looked at the door with bewilderment as Qin Jinhuan habitually protected her by pulling her behind him.“What’s going on?” Rong Jian asked as he ran to the door.“It’s just a misunderstanding! It’s just a misunderstanding!”Mu Yu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Liu Xiaofan’s voice. “It’s just Officer Liu.”Both Bian Zijun and Huang Bo knew Liu Xiaofan; why would they stop him?While Qin Jinhuan was still in shock, Rong Jian had already opened the door and looked outside.When Liu Xiaofan saw Rong Jian, he rushed over to introduce him. “Chief Rong, this is the new member of our bureau, Director He.” When Qin Jinhuan saw the man introduced by Liu Xiaofan, it was then he understood the reason Bian Zijun had stopped them from coming in.Rong Jian was surprised to see He Xinmin as he asked, “Director He, are you here to see Rubing?”He knew that his boss wa
"You ...""Dad, mom, you guys go back first," Shang Qi Qiang stopped his father who was about to have a seizure, and turned to Qin Jinhuan to apologize, "Big brother, a thousand mistakes are my fault, you let me meet Xiao Xi, I'll make amends to her and beg for her forgiveness.""Why are you the one making amends and begging for her forgiveness? It's not like she caused the accident! She caused it herself, okay?" Chen Juan was very dissatisfied with her son's words and immediately spoke out angrily, "It was her own fault that she deliberately found a reason to quarrel with you in the middle of the night and then ran out to meet another man before she got into the accident! Wasn't she at fault?"Chen Juan said while presenting the cell phone page about the intimate contact between Qin Chengxi and Fu Shaoyan to Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu to see, afraid that they do not know as if, completely ignoring the side of the husband and son who made all kinds of winks.Mu Ye
"Sister-in-law, go and pull my brother, but you can't ...""I know I know." Muyi pressed her to lie down, "You don't want to hurt the wound!""Don't mind me, I'm fine!""Okay, okay, I'll go persuade your brother." Knowing that she was in a hurry, Mu Yu waited for her to lie down and then ran out and instructed the nurse who had made special arrangements to take care of Qin Chengxi before leaving in a hurry.Seeing that Qin Jinhuan's figure had long since disappeared from the elevator entrance, she hurriedly called him and, upon learning that he was in the underground parking lot, immediately ordered him to wait for her to go down."What the hell is going on? Wasn't Shang Qi always good to Xiao Xi before?" Mu Yu expressed her disbelief after getting into Qin Jinhuan's car."That's for Shang Qi to ask." Qin Jinhuan glanced grimly at Bian Zijun.Bian Zijun answered, "I've already gotten through to Mr. Shang, and he said that he'll immediately a
Qin Chengxi had never actually thought of leaving the Shang family because she never thought she would have such a rigid side."Xiao Xi ah, you're too honest and have a weak nature, your brother is always worried that you'll be bullied outside, and always asked me to advise you to put on a stronger personality. You are a member of the Qin family, you should show the Qin family's vigor. Your brother said, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what happens, he will always be your strongest backing. You have to memorize these words."Her ears rang with the words her sister-in-law had spoken to her so eloquently today.Previously, she had been silently putting up with Chen Juan's mouthiness in the Shang family because of Shang Qi, and now that Shang Qi was talking to her in such a tone, what reason did she have to put up with them?Today she was going to show them that she, Qin Chengxi, wasn't as weak as they thought, and that she also had a personality!
"Isn't it just a picture? Making a big deal out of it is not something the Hoshi I know would do!""Is this just a picture in your eyes? Is it not your disloyalty to our relationship?""When have I ever been unfaithful to our relationship? Hoshi, you're breaking my heart when you say things like that, do you understand?""Your attitude breaks my heart even more!""My attitude ..." Seeing her crying more and more sad, he only had to give in, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll make amends to you, I'll apologize to you, okay?""It would have been your fault. Think about it another way, if the picture was of me with another man ...""No ifs!" He immediately interrupted her with a scowl."You know to be angry too.""Haven't I already admitted my mistake?""You drove Joey Zhi Yun.""No way!" Shang Qi refused Qin Chengxi without even thinking, "I need her badly now!"Qin Chengxi bit her lip, "So do you need me?""That's
Seeing that it was Chi Sihui's caller, he wanted to not answer it, but after a moment's hesitation, he answered it.In the end, the two families were family friends, and he and she had grown up together as little ones."Shangqi, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Chi Sihui's petite voice came through."What is it?" He asked back, faintly."Let's have dinner together, we haven't seen each other in a long time.""Not available.""Alright, alright, don't be angry with me, I invited you to dinner today just to apologize to you.""Apologize to me? Isn't it an apology for Hoshi?""To her?" Chi Sihui's voice was through contempt, but she didn't continue, turning to say, "I'll give her an apology, but I only want to see you today. Come on, I've reserved a seat at the Fate Restaurant.""No time.""Eh!" Seemingly knowing that he was about to hang up the phone, Chi Sihui immediately exclaimed, "You're going home for d
"Uncle, Auntie."With Shangqi gone, Qin Chengxi has no one to rely on, and Chen Juan makes her apprehensive.Chen Juan didn't enter the room either, but just looked at her with a face full of compassionate concern,"Xiao Xi ah, how's your body toning up these days? Why are you getting thinner and thinner?""I've been a little sick the last few days, so I've been eating very little. Always sleepy."Afraid that she would bring up another topic that she couldn't face, Qin Chengxi made a gesture of yawning, looking really sleepy, hoping that it would make her realize that she was leaving."You can't even take care of yourself, how can I expect you to take care of Sang-ki in the future?"Qin Chengxi wanted to say, "Shangqi will take care of herself," but thought better of it and smiled dryly, "I'll get my body well as soon as possible. Don't worry, uncle.""You just can't carry on the flavor for the Shang family even after you've toned up your bod
"Eh! Shangqi, let go!" Qin Chengxi struggled sharply."Shang, Mr. Shang?"The group of people who came in originally wanted to ask Qin Chengxi to look into the break because there was an argument, but they didn't expect to run into this scene, so they were all embarrassed and subconsciously tried to turn away."If you're here, why don't you finish before you leave?"The one who spoke, Shang Qi, at this time he had let go of Qin Chengxi, but his hand was still on her shoulder, as if he was swearing a kind of sovereignty, as if he was saying, you guys can watch out, your boss is my daughter-in-law, if you dare to bully her, you are bullying me.The corners of Qin Chengxi's mouth twitched as he looked at him unnaturally, but he let him.The crowd exited her office immediately after saying what they had to say briefly and succinctly.He grinned and held her hand as he took her out to dinner.She finally smiled at the thought.Since s
Qin Chengxi answered Mu Yan's call.She knew that her sister-in-law was worried about her situation, and immediately stated that she had the support of Shang Qi as well as the Shang family's parents, and only then did Mu Yan say nothing, and advised her a few more times to take care of her health."I know, I'll go back in a few days to see you and Redeemer. I miss Redeemer." She responded with feigned relief."Isn't it easy to miss her? I'll come home from work and bring her to video you.""Okay, that's a deal."A few more words were exchanged before she hung up.When he came back to the office again, Sang-ki was already buried in papers.Looking at him, who had also lost weight, she felt both guilty and heartbroken.She's the one who dragged Sang-gi down.If it weren't for her, the papers in front of him wouldn't have accumulated like a mountain.Meetings were pushed back and forth, and some matters that needed to be handl
"Brother! Don't!"Qin Chengxi was also terrified and cried as she went up to beg Qin Jinhuan.Although she has been in her heart not ashamed of what her parents did, but in the end is her biological parents, she can not sit back and do nothing, not to mention the grandfather's corpse is not yet cold, and in any case the family can not be so farce."Ah Huan, calm down!" Mu Ye also immediately stepped forward to dissuade Qin Jinhuan.Qin Jinhuan didn't make a sound, but just looked askance at Qin Wentao with a chilly face, without the slightest look of being persuaded by them.The sound of running footsteps outside approached.Qin Chengxi, who was afraid of seeing blood, was terrified, but she knew she couldn't say anything about her big brother and could only cry and go up to her father and beg him to leave.Qin Wentao knew that he couldn't restrain his son, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, when Qin Chengxi crashed into
