Chapter 401: Chapter 402 Rain Curtain (2)
Swiftly, Qin Zhiyou moved around the edge of the bed, walking directly behind her.
His tall figure completely covered her body. Even though they hadn’t yet touched, his shadow seemed to envelop her entirely, casting her in a shadow. His presence was suffocating, nearly coercive. She was entirely engulfed by it, with no means of escape.
After a while, the man behind her finally spoke: “Wei Hui.”
Her heart pounded fiercely within her chest, wondering what he wanted to say. Was he about to explain why he hadn’t returned home last night, or was he about to discuss Liu Yiyi? Or, perhaps, given that she had assaulted his precious woman earlier that day, he was feeling upset and intended to admonish her?
Thinking about it, she indeed had not lived up to her promise. She had said that as long as he gave her living expenses every month, she could feign ignorance about his women and affairs, and she wouldn’t utter a word or hold a grudge.
But in the end, she was resentful and had even resorted to violence. If Qin Zhiyou wanted to express his dissatisfaction, it would be justified. After all, it was her who hadn’t kept her initial promise.
However, for some unknown reason, she felt a stifling emotion in her heart— part grievance, part discontentment, along with a vague surge of anger simmering beneath the surface. All she knew was that if Qin Zhiyou were to hold her accountable, she would feel awful.
However, Qin Zhiyou standing behind her took a long time before he finally said: “I…”
Just after uttering one word, his phone began to ring, vibrating relentlessly. Qin Zhiyou frowned, not eager to answer it. But as the phone continued to ring, he had no choice but to pick it up, his voice noticeably deep, “What is it?”
“Mr. Qin, there is a problem.” It was the voice of Secretary Wang. The room was so quiet that Lu Weixi could clearly hear it too.
Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi glanced at each other. Then, he lowered his voice and said, “Go on.” As he spoke, he turned around and left, leaving the room.
However, as Qin Zhiyou departed, Lu Weixi faintly heard the syllable “Liu” from the phone.
Lu Weixi’s lips curled into a coy smile. Who else bearing the surname “Liu” would be looking for Qin Zhiyou at such a juncture if not Liu Yiyi?
So, Liu Yiyi was indeed planning to complain and ask Qin Zhiyou for revenge!
It looks like, even if Qin Zhiyou considered Liu Yiyi nothing more than a toy, he seemed quite concerned about her matters. Even Secretary Wang was involved in informing him! So, wasn’t this solid proof? It was decisive evidence of Liu Yiyi and Qin Zhiyou’s intimate relationship!
She regarded Qin Zhiyou as her pillow mate, her husband, her only man. However, Qin Zhiyou didn’t only have her as his woman. Perhaps every word he said to her and everything he did, he had practiced previously with other women. The only thing that distinguished her was their marriage contract; in Qin Zhiyou’s eyes, her other roles were perhaps far less valuable compared to other women.
Maybe due to her identity as Mrs. Qin, even if Qin Zhiyou found out about her hitting Liu Yiyi, he wouldn’t confront her about it. But this meant nothing; all it meant was that he was saving face for her, the wife. She felt so insignificant!
She straightforwardly changed her clothes again, putting on sportswear. Although it was nearly time for dinner, she decided to go out for a run.
