《If We Cannot Grow Old Together》 Chapter 1: Like Mother like Daughter Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Mu Ziyou, you did a good job! Since you are in need of money so badly, why dont you just go to make money with your body like your mother? How dare you have got a naked loan (having a picture taken, naked, with the ID card in hand as a precondition)?! Why didnt you turn to me? Am I dead to you? Mu in a light sleep suddenly feels a sharp pain in the face, which is followed by a storm of abuse. She opens her eyes and sees a furious face. Its her husband, Li Qiaosheng. Obviously, its his p that has made her face burning. Shes stunned, staring nkly in his angry face. Although she has been used to his asional hot temper, todays fury is beyond her. What is the naked loan he mentioned? She totally has no idea. Li squints his eyes. The woman in front of him is still attractive despite theres an ugly scar on the face, and she can still bring up pity deep in a mans heart easily. He hesitates for a second before fury takes over him again. Why? Why his heart softens suddenly? If it hadnt been for her, his father wouldnt have died so early, and the family wouldnt have fallen apart!Original from N?velDrama.Org. Thinking of this, he squeezes his two hands around her neck while crying, Why is it you who survived? Why is it not you who have died? Why are you making me so miserable these days and every following day as you are still breathing? Mu coughs hard, trying to get some air, Qiaosheng, I That little delicate face crumbles with tears shedding. She grabs his arm out of the urge for self-preservation and struggles hard. Yet as thest word hits her, she closes her eyes slowly in despair. Bitter memories overwhelm her simultaneously. The air of despair brings a bit of sense back to him. Li Qiaosheng loosens his hold on her neck at once and says in a cold voice, You wish to die? No way! Let me make it clear: you will never free yourself of this until myst breathe! I did get a loan, but not in the shameful way as you have mentioned! Mu Ziyou figures out the cause for all this rumpus now. She tries to defend herself while trying to inhale fresh air. No? Shame on you for lying! See for yourself! Li pushes her head hard against an envelope. It hurts so badly. On tilting her head slightly, she finds on the top of the envelope a photo of herself naked with her ID card in the hands. Howe?! No, its impossible. Its not me. No way Qiaosheng, trust me, please. I made the loan to cover my moms medical bills next month. I swear I did not do it with my photo Its not me who took the shot. Definitely not! Mu Ziyou kneels by the bed with hands tugging tightly at a corner of Qiaos clothes. With tears shedding, she tries to clear her name. Once again, the way Li looks at her hurts her badly. Loathing as usual, but an air of unveiled contempt is added today. Well, your photo is right here, what else do you want to say? It seems that youre fond of earning money with your body, then please me with it! Make full use of your body, since its still favorable to me. Dont waste it. You must be kidding, She is freaked out by this man in front of her, I Im your wife. My wife? Then how many times have you fulfilled your obligation as a wife? Listen, for Gods sake, I will pay you ten thousand yuan each time, thats my best offer. Li Qiaosheng sneers while undressing himself slowly. Then he throws her in the bed and himself on top of her with stormy lust in his eyes. He cant control his nature: Hating the woman so much that he wants her to go to hell right away on the one hand, he can still be aroused by her on the other! A sharp pain in the abdomen frightens her. She stretches out her hands against his chest, her face pale, she besought, No, Qiaosheng, Im having my period. Please dont, please Oh? Li Qiaosheng freezes for a second and lifts the corner of his mouthter, Im perfectly Okay with it. Hardly has his voice faded away when something big and hard is thrust into Mus body and moves in and out of her body frantically before shees to know what was happening. There is no hope in her eyes any more. Once again, she reminds herself that he is no longer the man, who risked his life for her safety when she was a little girl and whom she has addressed as Brother Qiaosheng affectionately. The man in front of her now hates her so much that he wants to humiliate and torture her every second. This is the very thing he had done on their wedding night. He actually raped her instead of making love to her with the furious look of sending her straightly to Hades. Mu loses the track of time, with the pain in her body numbing her senses. Atst, she passes out for short of physical strength. Mu Ziyou wakes up alone and realizes it is as cold as if no one has ever slept over on the other side of the bed. Trying to pull herself together, Mu only finds herself overwhelmed by piercing pain all over her body as if she had been run over by some heavy gears. She reaches out for the phone on the nightstand, mustering up all her strength, but she touches something else first. It is a bank card with a note. Li Qiaoshengs handwriting is easy to tell: Well, how much do you think you are worth for your bad performance in bed? A whore can do a much better job than you. Remember this, Mu Ziyo, I only gave this card out of mercy. If you want more, go on improving your skills in bed! Chapter 2: I Did It Perfectly Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie With the card in hand, Mu Ziyou sweats on the forehead out of weakness. He would not miss any opportunity to humiliate her, and she is used to it, isnt she? She has thought of leaving him for countless times, but she didnt just because she still anticipated for a change. Because this man has been her dream lover ever since she was a little girl until now! She always has a fantasy that all the misunderstanding would be eliminated someday, and their rtionship would be restored just like that during childhood, and he would still look at her in a pampering way Mu Ziyou wipes off her tears, and notices the sheet which has been reced with a new one, with not a single trace of making love left. Deathly despair restores in her eyes. Probably this is the true Li Qiaosheng, who hates her to the guts. At the meal, the maid made a few dishes that are antianemic, but Mu Ziyou clearly understands that it is not because of the conscience of her husband who wants to make up for his bad behavior, but for the rare Rh-negative trait blood in her body. Only her blood could be used to save his most beloved woman, Xia Wanyan, who had tried tomit suicide in order to prevent him from marrying Mu Ziyou. Lan, did the doctor forget toe here today? She speaks softly and emotionlessly. Lan gives her a ck look and answers in a disdainful way, Of course not. You are in your period, and Mr. Li is afraid that if you lose too much blood, it will cause more trouble than benefit so the blood collecting is canceled this week.Original from N?velDrama.Org. OK. Mu Ziyou has been used to the bad attitudes of servants. Probably from their points of view, Xia Wanyan is the actual Mrs. Li, and Mu herself is just a tool generating blood for Xia. Somehow, Mu Ziyous menstrual period is particrly short this month, which juststed for 3 days, much shorter than the usual 7 days. Mu doesnt think much about it. After recovering a little, she goes to the central hospital with the loan next morning, since her mothers medicine bills are waiting to be paid. After paying the bills for the next month, Mu Ziyou gets into the packed elevator. Being absentminded for a while, she finds herself on the wrong floor. Her mother is in themon ward, but she is now on the floor of VIP wards. She shakes her head thinking maybe she is really tired recently that she even went absent-minded just now. She is ready to turn back to the elevator when she freezes at what she hears. Dad, when am I going to leave the hospital? Its really dull here. And I dont know why Qiaosheng is still hesitating about divorcing Youyou. What should I do next? Dad, dont worry. I fabricated the matter of naked loan perfectly. No one could discover it. Qiaosheng looked very gloomy when he came to visit me this morning, which must have been caused by Youyou (an intimate term for Mu Ziyou)Im sure that with a little more tricks, I could make it. On hearing the conversation unexpectedly, Mu Ziyou trembles with anger. More ironically, they had been best friends in the world once upon a time! Why does Xia treat her so cruelly? On hanging up the phone and turning towards the door, Xia Wanyan finds Mu Ziyou standing in front of her ring at her. She is shocked at first, but immediately covers her mouth while smiling, Youyou, are you here to visit me or your prostitute mother? Xia Wanyan! Hearing the word prostitute, Mu Ziyou could not bear it any longer. She steps forward and grabs Xias neck, ignoring the fact that the window behind is wide open. She vents out her anger thoroughly. Why on earth do you treat me so cruelly? You ndered me for harming you after you jumped down from a building. I promised to offer you my blood every week when you said you were suffering from anemia. What else should I do to make you satisfy? And now you are trying to set me up in such a vile way! You Anger has blinded Mu, and she really wants to strangle this woman! Youyou,e on, if you dont want to give me your blood, you can talk to Qiaosheng in person. Its not me who made you draw blood to feed me. I didnt Xia Wanyan was just about to stretch out her hands with a malicious look when she catches a glimpse of Qiaosheng who emerges from behind. She suddenly changes her tone and covers her mouth tightly. Mu Ziyou is not able to speak, but she has decided to give this woman a lesson today! But unexpectedly, while she is tightening her hands, a sudden force behind her hits her and her whole body falls back defenselessly! Mu Ziyou, Why is it you again? Who gave you the nerve to do this?! Bang, the moment she falls down, with her forehead hitting the column in front of her, she hears Li Quashings furious roar. With her sights getting fuzzier and fuzzier, she still gets a full view of Xia Wanyans defiant looks to her while she was telling Li about what was happening while crying. Mu Ziyou, go to hell and stay away from us. Why do you think I would let you, a vicious woman, stay with me if it werent for your blood type? Before she loses consciousness, all that she hears is the furious voice of the man again Chapter 3: You Can鈥檛 Talk About Her like That! Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Mu Ziyou had a dream where there was Qiaoshengs gentle look and moms amiable and affectionate smile. She wakes up crying. Feeling that her tears are tenderly wiped away, she slowly opens her eyes. Youyou, honey, are you awake? The man in front of her is wearing a doctors white coat and looking at her with a loving and distressed look. Mu Ziyou cant believe her eyes. Qin Yang! Is it really you? You Arent you in Japan? His tone is extraordinarily gentle, just like before, casting a beam of warm light into her heart. Well, my family all came back and I was assigned to work in this hospital. Qin Yang touches her soft hair on the top of her head with a smile and asks her with concern, You are not doing well? Qin Yang, I am OK. These I owe these to him. I deserve them. Mu Ziyou shakes her head with a bitter smile. Hearing her saying this, Qin Yangs expression changes. He cant help shaking her shoulders and growls: Li Qiaoshengs father died in the car ident to protect you just because he owed it to your mother. You owe nothing to Li Qiaosheng. Do you understand? Mu Ziyou droops her head and the past events unrolled in her mind one by one. She covers her chest with a hand cupping on it asfort and tears pour down uncontrobly. But Seeing Qiaosheng being that painful, I am also Mu Ziyou, you lust for man so much that you can even flirt with a random doctor in the hospital? Outside the door stands Li Qiaosheng, looking at them without any expression. He has just wanted to check on her, but unexpectedly heard the voice of a strange man. Not like that, Qiaosheng Before Mu Ziyou can exin, Li Qiaoshengs fist directly smashes into Qin Yangs face. Taken off guard, Qin Yang is hit and blood runs down the corner of his mouth. Mu Ziyou covers her mouth out of surprise. However, Qin Yang goes on with the conversation after he calms down and even gracefully wipes the blood off his face: Nice to meet you, Li Qiaosheng. This is Qin Yang, Youyous Good Friend. Just now we were only having a small talk about the good old days. Please dont misunderstand. Are you finished? If so, get out now! Li Qiaosheng is so agitated, inexplicably agitated. Qin Yang was still worried when Mu Ziyou gives him a reassuring look telling him to leave. This scene was totally seen by Li Qiaosheng, which makes him feel suffocated with agitation like a big ball of cotton has been stuck in his heart. As soon as Qin Yang leaves the room, Li Qiaosheng presses her to the hospital bed, holding her two wrists in one hand above her head and tugging violently at her pants with the other hand. He utters some bad words ferociously at the same time: Whenever I wanted to make love to you before, you would decline with all kinds of excuses. While now you are so willing to throw yourself on him. You are really the same as your mother, the old Before the word whorees out of his mouth, being extremely sad and irritated, Mu Ziyou smashes her forehead directly into Qiaoshengs chin with great force My mom is not like what you think of! You cant talk about her like that! Li Qiaosheng is so irritated that he bursts into a coldughter. With no more arguing, he turns to the nurse nearby and orders, Come on, draw a bag of blood from her and send it to patient Xia Wanyan in Room VIP08. No, I wont give her any bit of my blood because it is she who framed me for the naked loan matter. Li Qiaosheng, will you believe me this time? Will you? Inplete despair, Mu Ziyou can only hear the buzzing noise around her. The nurse is trying to dissuade him, exining that it is not the right situation in which blood can be drawn. But will a man in a rage listen to her? He just looks at the woman in the bed with sheer hatred in his eyes. Damn, I will never trust you! You like pretending to be a victim so as to earn mercy from people, just like your mother, dont you? I told you I didnt She growls, only to be clutched by the neck by Li Qiaosheng. You owe me. You owe Wanyan. You owe the whole Li family. Do you think you can pay off with just a little blood?Original from N?velDrama.Org. His voice seems to being from the hell while her eyes be more and more blurred. Li Qiaosheng, if I die, can I free myself from all the sufferings? She stares at the ceiling dully. Suddenly everything went silent around her. What she can see is Li Qiaoshengs lips opening and closing. But the sight bes more and more obscure Chapter 4: There is Nothing Wrong with Her Health! Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie When Mu wakes up again, she finds herself alone in the middle of the transfusion of nutrients. The ward is horribly quiet. Recalling all has happened since she married Qiaosheng, suddenly shees to wonders whether she has been wrong for having been too obsessed and stubborn. She feels devastated by the mutual torture in her marriage Youyou, anything wrong? You must tell me if so. Let me give you a thorough examination, OK? Qin Yang finds by chance that she is staring ahead numbly as he passes by. He walks to her hastily, afraid that she has been hurt by some undetected internal injuries. At this, Mu Ziyou slowly raises his head. In order to relieve his worries, she turns her face sideways like nothing has happened. Where is he? she asked. He came to get Xia Wanyan out of the hospital today. Qin Yang is not much of a liar and tells her the truth. Today? Out of the hospital? Mu Ziyou does not know that she has already slept a whole day and night. Qin Yang nods, Yeah. By the way, one thing confuses me. Its been a long time since Xia Wanyan fell off a building and got a bad loss of blood. I think its understandable to call for your blood at that time. But why does she still want your blood for her good over and over again now? Because she was diagnosed with astic anemia. And Qiaosheng had always thought that it was because of me that she fell off the building. Therefore he requires me to make up for her It cant be! She shows no symptom of that at all! By virtue of his identity as a doctor, he retrieved Xia Wanyans health status report with an excuse. The report shows that there is nothing wrong with her health! She should have been discharged from the hospital long before!N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. What?!! Mu Ziyous brows knit together. She just finds that all of a sudden everything starts to make sense. Qin Yang looks bemusedly at Mu Ziyou, then nods. She has the right to know the truth. Mu Ziyou takes a deep breath andes to a decision at that second: Get me out of the hospital, please. Despite Qin Yangs disagreement, Mu insists on leaving the hospital and returns to Li Qiaoshengs vi. To her surprise, Xia Wanyan is already there and has decorated the next guest room in the way she likes. Mu Ziyous face darkened perceptibly at seeing this. Without a second thought shees forward to question her: Xia Wanyan, youve never suffered from astic anemia, have you? Then why on earth are you still taking a bag of my blood every week? What on earth are you doing with all my blood? Your blood Well, since youve already found out, Ill make it straight. Look, theres a spare one. Xia Wanyan gets out a bag of blood from the drawer of the nightstand and heads for the bathroom while saying, Usually I will take advantage of the time when Qiaosheng is absent and pour the left blood into the toilet and flush it clean. Well, of course, there might be some other USE, like A thwack sound stuns Mu Ziyou to the soul. Xia Wanyan just ps hard in her own face. Then she dips her finger in the rest of the blood and draws at the corner of her mouth and gives Mu a mysterious and weird smile. Before Mu Ziyou figures out what has happened, Li Qiaosheng has appeared behind her without a single sound. He pushes her hard down to the ground in a rage. Mu Ziyou! I asked Wanyan to live over not for you to hurt her! Darling, boo-hoo, Youyou said she would rather flush the blood down the toilet than give it to me. I I dont know why. Since she doesnt like me here, I think Id better go. Xia Wanyan covers her bleeding mouth with one hand, giving out a pathetic look. Due to the dizziness, Mu Ziyou cannot stand up at once. She can only watch her own husband taking Xia Wanyan up against his chest gently and coaxing. Facing her, however, he immediately bes another man, Just wait and wish! He roars at her without any clue to love that Mu grew up with. Chapter 5: I Have Something to Tell You Just for the sake of these simple words, Mu Ziyou has been waiting for Li Qiaosheng till 11 oclock P. M. When her eyes lids be heavy with sleep, she hears a burst of messy footsteps outside. And then the utched door is pushed open heavily and ines Li Qiaosheng. He must have had some enjoyable time with Xia Wanyan before he came back thought Mu Ziyou bitterly. Just then she notices the strong smell of alcohol on him. Mu Ziyou feels sick but after uttering a brief sigh, she still gets up and intends to make some soup to dispel the effects of alcohol for him in the kitchen. Before she gets out of the door, Li Qiaosheng stretches out a hand and pulls her back to his bosom. He lowers his head and gives her an evil but charming smile, You ought to pay off the debt tonight! No, Qiaosehng. Im not feeling well now.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Why? If you dont want to do that, pay off all the money you owe me right now! The man interrupts her sharply. Mu Ziyou stares at him surprisingly. When did I owe you money? Aha, have you already forgotten about the naked loan? Do you think you can swipe my card for free? Do you think you can pay it back? Li Qiaosheng breathes heavily. While approaching Mu Ziyou step by step, he begins to undo his belt Do you want to have sex with me or not? His face wearsplicated expressions. Didnt you still pretend to love me? Then why dont you want to have sex with me? As listening to the insulting words, she suddenly covers her eyes and bursts into tears. Yes She loves him It is just because she loves him that she seems to havepletely forgotten what she herself was like before. After crying for a while, she suddenly thinks of something and takes hold of the mans hand while saying in a hurry: I have something to tell you. Its about Xia Wanyan Do you want to tell me that it wasnt you who caused her to fall off the building so that you dont need to give her your blood? Qiaosheng, I am not cheating you. You would rather sell blood so as to pay off the debt, or even pour your blood into the toilet rather than give it to Wanyan? Mu Ziyou is refuted speechless, but Qiaosheng hasnt finished. And do you want to tell me that the naked loan is framed by Xia Wanyan? Do you want to tell me that you didnt go to get a loan at all because Qin Yang is willing to offer your whore mother medical treatment for free? Noticing her silence, Li Qiaoshengonly thinks that she has acknowledged everything. His cold smile crawls to the corners of his mouth, Mu Ziyou, stop pretending to be poor. Even if it wasnt you who rendered Wanyan like this, you must give her your blood! Hum, the only thing to me is your rare Rh-negative blood type which is the same as hers. But she has no anaemic symptom at all. Would you believe me just this time? You can get the truth from her medical report! Mu Ziyou feels cold at the bottom of her heart, but she cannot reconcile herself to keeping the truth unknown to Li Qiaosheng. But Li Qiaosheng says with a sneer, So you mean that Wanyan even deliberately faked the symptoms of anaemia? Yes! Brother Qin Yang saw Xia Wanyans medical report which says there is nothing wrong with her! Mu Ziyou almost makes an oath gesture. A moment of hesitation has shed through the mans expression. But on hearing Brother Qin Yang, so intimate an addressing term, he suddenly turns his face extremely cold and impatient! He doesnt want to listen to any of her nonsense any more. He pushes Mu Ziyou hard to the floor. While looking down at her he asks for another time, But, I just want to know whether you want to have sex with me or not now! Qiaosheng, I Kneel down, or Ill throw you and your bitch mother out of the hospital tomorrow! The man says these words indifferently. Knowing that hes got Mu Ziyous fatal weakness, he smiles in a brutal way. Biting at her lips, Mu Ziyou thinks of the money for her mothers medical fee and the words said by Qiaoshengs father before his death Perhaps her action is really too slow, or Li Qiaosheng is too impatient to wait. He takes the womans chin between his fingers. With a little force, he has her mouth opened and thrusts himself into it mercilessly. On thinking of the scene when she and Qin Yang were intimately together, he pushes himself ruthlessly deep down her throat, again and again! After this, he goes directly into the bathroom without even a nce at Mu Ziyou who is left throwing up everything from her stomach into the trash can Chapter 6: You Will Be Honored for the Sake of Your Baby Since Mu Ziyou started vomiting that night, several days have passed but she shows no sign of stopping. Li Qiaosheng finally realizes that something is wrong. After an examination in the hospital, he finds it out that she has been pregnant for two months. Pregnant Mu Ziyous expressions areplicated. Why at this time Regarding her rtionship with Li Qiaosheng at present, does she dare to give birth to this baby? To her surprise, although Li Qiaosheng doesnt show much concern by his facial expression, he no longer forces her to give blood to Xia Wanyan. He even hired an experienced nanny to look after her.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. Mu Ziyou couldnt help crying with joy. Even though Li Qiaosheng doesnt say anything nice, he doesnt purposely find fault with her anymore. He even drops in on her intentionally or unintentionally. Some of the wounds in her broken heart seem to have gradually healed day by day. However, peaceful life is doomed to end fast. One day, when she is sunning herself in the yard, she finds Li Qiaosheng walking towards her in a rage with a note in his hand. Mu Ziyou, it seems that you are in a good mood, huh? Do you think that when you are pregnant, you will be honored for the sake of your baby? Youd better keep it in your mind that it is Wanyan who is my beloved. I will get you out of this house as soon as you give birth to the baby! After finishing these words, he throws the note at her and turns to leave without a nce back. Deeply hurt by Qiaoshengs words again, Mu Ziyous face turns white. She is in a daze for a while before she takes a look at the note which is a farewell letter from Xia Wanyan. In the letter, Xia Wanyan said that the reason why she left was Mu Ziyou. She could not bear to see the pregnant Mu Ziyou wandering around her every day. But she wouldnt stay there like a mistress any longer unless Qiaosheng promises to marry her, or she would never appear in front of him again! In the following days, Mu Ziyou didnt see Li Qiaosheng again, either. The servants said in private that he has gone to look for Xia Wanyan and it seems that he has been determined not to return until he finds her. Mu Ziyou has been living a miserable life. She has no time to fix her broken heart because her morning sickness is very severe. But for the sake of the baby she carries, she has to force down the tasteless food obediently. The baby, thebination of her and Qiaosheng, is her only hope and concern now The baby probably has sensed her emotions and responds ordingly, which makes her vomit after eating. Then she will eat, vomit, eat vomit, again and again. After several days, she feels that her spirits and energy are being drained little by little. When Li Qiaosheng finally appears in front of her again, it is also a little hard for him to believe his own eyes. The skin of the woman in front of him has turned from snow-white into wax-yellow without any luster. She seems that she has been reduced to bones. He has been on a business trip for only a week. How has she maltreated herself and be like this? There is a sh of tenderness and pain in his eyes. But when he thinks of the pain that Wanyan has suffered because of her, his face bes hard again. Abruptly he rushes out of the room, dragging her behind! Why is my heart softened again? Fine, fine, Mu Ziyou, you want to use the Battered-Body Trick again, right? Qiaosheng thinks to himself. Where are you taking me? Mu Ziyou is terrified. Is he going to Since you are not willing to eat obediently and I wont let my baby starve, I will get you a nutritional transfusion! The second he finishes his words, his cell phone starts ringing. He takes out the phone. On its screen the callers name is flickering Xia Wanyan, whom he hasnt seen for a long time. At the same time, Mu Ziyou standing next to him also sees that, and her heart sinks to the bottom. Sure enough, the man immediately lets go of her and steps away while picking up the phone. When hees back, he still looks extremely cold, which causes her to retreat several steps subconsciously. This scene is captured by Li Qiaosheng, and it makes him confirm that she is feeling guilty. Then he approaches her step by step until her back is against the cold wall behind and nowhere to escape. Tell me, whoisthefatherofthebaby? The man tries to restrain his inner anger and asks. Li Qiaosheng, what the hell are you talking about? Mu Ziyous eyes pop wide and she stares at him incredulously. You dont know who is the father of the baby in my womb, do you? On that day, my father and you, what happened? This baby is it his? Chapter 7: They Kept Their Behavior in Secrecy and Mystery Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Mu Ziyou finds her moods changing from thunderous to exceedingly ironic C the man to whom she has been married suspects her and his father after such a long time theyve spent together. How ridiculous She is overwhelmed by anger and gives out a drearyughter. Li Qiaosheng, try to imagine how disappointed your father would be if he got to know this in the heaven! After saying this in a deadly t voice, she turns around and walks downstairs in determined strides. Li Qiaosheng stays stunned and grounded for a while. Suddenly, anger rises in him. He bangs his fist on the white wall!N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. He would definitely roar with rage if he were not in the hospital! Finally he gets out his phone and once again dials Xia Wanyans number simply ignoring the wound on his hand. He speaks in a in and terrifying tone. Wanyan, where is my mom? Get her on the phone. I need to talk to her. Qiaosheng, Ill get Auntie on the phone. Although auntie is not yet fully recovered, the words she says now unconsciously should be true to the fact, dont you think so? Xia Wanyan then makes the phone avable for the woman lying in the hospital bed. This woman is Li Qiaoshengs mother, Baiyun, who identally fell down the stairs and got her head bumped before Li and Mu got married. Since then she has been acting like a lunatic and stayed in the sanatorium. Therefore, when Li Qiaosheng hears that his mother can finally speak in whole sentences and still keeps on cursing Mu Ziyou and her mother, Mu Qing as an enchantress in broken sentences at the other end of the line, he gets so angry that he almost crushed his phone in the hand . He doesnt wish to suspect Mu Ziyou in his heart, but his mother did fall down the stairs just before they got married. And his mother did try to stop their wedding from happening. Was it really caused by Mu Ziyou?! A dangerous light appears in his eyes, yet he looks rather painful. Qiaosheng, I have been keeping Auntiespany these days. When her mind was clear, she told me that Youyou right now is exactly the same as her mother when she was young. You also know that Uncle Li had never stopped missing Auntie Mu Qing and he had cared about even pampered Youyou so much. Whats more Xia Wanyan stops right there on purpose, pretending that she dare not to continue. Go on! Li Qiaosheng squeezes out the words from between his teeth. Whats more, I also heard that whenever Uncle was free, he would take Youyou out for a drive. They kept their behavior in such secrecy and mystery that nobody knew what they were out for. Even on the day when the car ident happened, they didnt tell Auntie Bai where they had been, did they? On hearing this, Li Qiaosheng is reminded of something happened in the past. It did happen several times when he came back home for dinner from the Group. He saw his father and Youyoue back together in a rush, which turned his mother into a foul mood. He follows up Mu Ziyou unconsciously, recalling the whole picture in his mind little by little. Considering her bad mood may worry her mom a lot, Mu Ziyou leaves the hospital against her original intention to drop in on her whenes to the floor where themon wards are located. No sooner has she got back to the vi and is about to take a shower to get refreshed and rxed than her husband shows up outside of the door. Li catches her taking off her clothes. Finding his wifes perfect and sexy figure even in pregnancy, Li gets lit up inside immediately. Ah! Qiaosheng! Are you out of your mind?! Hardly has Mu Ziyou got anything to cover her body when she is pushed down into the bed and is entered from behind the next second! Yes, I am! I should have known long before that youre never any better than your filthy mother! Li Qiaosheng, how can you say it like that? She can no more stand such torture physically and mentally. While tears are running down her face, blood begins to stream out from her lower body However, the ce that is bleeding harder is her heart My baby Stay strong, please! Mommy will not live alone in this world if you are gone With a pale face, she struggles in misery. But a familiar stun hit her suddenly and she passes out atst Chapter 8: Why Do You Look Thinner? Proofreader: Zhou ZhijieN?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. Mu Ziyou wakes up and sees Qin Yang at the first nce. She hurriedly shouts to Qin Yang who is about to leave, Qin Yang, is my baby still OK? Oh, awake? Take it easy, your baby is OK, but C Qin Yang doesnt know whether or not he should tell Mu Ziyou the bad news when he meets her eyes full of hope. But he cant hide the truth, and asks tentatively, I heard that Li Qiaosheng is having an abortion surgery arranged for you. Why is he so merciless even to his own child? Getting to know that her baby is OK, Mu Ziyou has just calmed down. But on hearing the word abortion, she is shocked and bes restless again. Wearing an anxious expression, she grabs Qin Yangs white coat and says, Oh, no, Qin Yang. Save me, please! Qiaosheng is the babys father. He will regret for it. He will! What on earth has happened? Youyou, dont panic. I will for sure help you! Qiaosheng suspected that his father rather than he is the father of the baby! But his father and I How could that be possible? I dont know what Xia Wanyan said to him, which made him so firmly believe that the baby is not his. What should I do now? The baby is innocent! Even though Mu Ziyous statement is incoherent, Qin Yanges to understand the whole story when she finishes talking. After a long time of thinking, staring at her in a serious way he says to this poor and weak little woman, Get divorced with him, Youyou. Divorce? Mu Ziyou has thought about it before. But due to a variety of factors, shes never put it into action. Yes. Youyou, you are not happy with him at all. He has probably forgotten what you were like when you were a child. He had to marry you just to his fathers will and order! Its time for you to wake up, Youyou. You dont need to worry that you cannot get the divorce. One of my friends is awyer who can help you with that. As for the baby, if you want to keep him, I will help you to bring him up. If you dont want him, just have an abortion and start a new life. Isnt it OK? After Qin Yang leaves, Mu Ziyou is left to stare out of the window in a daze. Should she divorce Qiaosheng? She was once full of joy and content when she married him. Maybe only his father knew how profound her love toward Qiaosheng was. However if she doesnt divorce him, she will not only have to bear the humiliation from him, but also have to face her husband flirting with her used-to-be best friend every day, which hurts her most. Mu Ziyou picks up the phone and calls Qin Yang after a painful struggle in mind. Qin Yang, I have made my decision. Could you please do me a favor? Before having the abortion, Mu Ziyoues to her mothers ward. Its been quite a long time since herst visit. Her mother, Mu Qing, even looks much better in her hospital bed at seeing her. Youyou, what are you busy with recently? You havente to see me for so many days. Why do you look thinner? Did Qiaosheng? No. Im all right, mom. Actually Im pregnant, and I have been vomiting severely these days. Dont worry. Qiaosheng treats me well. He worries about my safety, so he doesnt let me go around casually. Mu Ziyou has always told her mother good news rather than bad news. But Mu Qing does know something about Ziyous marriage life. Sometimes if her daughter doesnt want to talk about it, she will also avoid mentioning it. But today her daughter looks so weak and thin that she looks almost like herself who has long been tortured by illness and pain. She then takes hold of her daughters hands with concern and focuses her gazes on her unobservable belly, and says, Its really great that youre pregnant. You should take more care of yourself now because its not you yourself who need nutrition. Ask Qiaosheng to add more nutrition to your food, you know? OK, I will take a good care of myself, mom. Do you like a boy or a girl? Give him or her a nice name when he or she is born, will you? Mu Ziyou chokes several times while talking. Thanks to her mothers attention on the baby, she doesnt notice it. But after going out of the ward she cannot hold herself in any more. Leaning against the wall, tears pour down her face silently. I can tell that Mom likes the baby, too, so I will protect him no matter what happens! Mu Ziyou thinks in her mind. Chapter 9: Why Are You Still Here? Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie After the operation, Mu Ziyou takes out the divorce agreement that she prepared beforehand and hands it to Li Qiaosheng. There is no light in her eyes any more. She says, Qiaosheng, the baby is gone. And the doctor said that I might never be pregnant again. So let me go and lets get divorced. Because the baby is gone and she has been the one who was unwilling to get divorced before, Mu Ziyou thinks that Qiaosheng will agree to divorce straightforwardly. Unexpectedly, Li Qiaosheng doesnt look at the papers at all, instead he stretches out his hand and strongly pinches her pale face between his fingers and sneers, Oh, divorce? Mu Ziyou, it was you who made my father force me to marry you before. So what? You want to end the game so quickly? Or is it because- Is it because your cousin who has no close blood ties with you is back and you can be together with him now? With these words, the man increases his force in the hand. Although Mu Ziyou is choked with pain, she still rushes to defend herself in a hoarse voice. No, no. It is not like this! Qin Yang, However, Li Qiaosheng doesnt bother to listen to her exnations. Although he doesnt know much about womans thoughts, he clearly knows the meaning of the light in the man eyes when he looks at his own woman. Mu Ziyou, dont forget that you owe Wanyan and your mother and you owe my whole family! If I count all these in, huh, I think ten of you can neverpensate me! You want to divorce me and get away from all that? Thanks to the fact that she has just had the abortion operation, Li Qiaosheng does not do anything else to her except that he tears the divorce agreement into pieces and throws them all on her face. Then, he leaves the ward without a nce back. Since then, Mu Ziyou has been imprisoned by Li Qiaosheng. On the second day after Mu Ziyou got out of hospital, Xia Wanyan also returns arm in arm with Li Qiaoshengs mother to the vi. Qiaosheng, Auntie is much better. With the permission of the doctor, I took her back home to have a reunion with you for a few days. Isnt it a surprise? Standing in front of the man with a big smile, Xia Wanyan deliberately does not wear any lipstick, but sticks out her tongue to make a cute look. Therefore, in Li Qiaoshengs eyes, even with a sick body she is still trying to make a surprise for him. So he pulls her into his embrace with much concern. Lightly scratching her small and delicate nose, he says in a tender tone, You havent fully recovered yourself yet. Why are you taking her around? You cannot leave home without leaving a word next time, you know? OK, I know, darling Qiaosheng. The public disy of affection fallspletely into Mu Ziyous eyes, who stands not far away. Even though she has been prepared for such a scene, her broken heart is still twitching with dull pain. Just as she forces herself to turn around to avoid seeing them, Bai Yun is suddenly out of control on seeing her! You, the shameless bitch, vamp! Why are you still here? Why havent you divorced with Qiaosheng? While shouting, Bai Yun rushes forward and grasps Mu Ziyou by the hair. She pulls at Mu Ziyous hair with great force while cursing her without stopping at the same time. I have thought that you would be an ugly woman after the car ident, but you only got a long scar in your face! Just like your hooker mother who is infected with the AIDS, you can only pretend to be poor in front of men. Isnt it right? Seeing her tormented with such pain that her face twists, Li Qiaosheng frowns a little and seems not able to bear this. But hearing his mothers words, he stops his footsteps suddenly thinking that letting his mother vent her spleen in this way may not be a bad idea. Xia Wanyan observes his expressions closely and pretends to stop Auntie Bai. Meanwhile she even apologizes to him,Im so sorry, Qiaosheng. In fact, Auntie really has almost fully recovered. I didnt expect that she would have a rpse when she sees Youyou. Ah- Xia Wanyan falls to the ground, which is done deliberately and is seen clearly by Mu Ziyou.Original from N?velDrama.Org. However, Li Qiaoshengs face turns sullen and terrible. He strides towards Mu Ziyou who is entangled with his mother and shoves her away hard. Without another nce at Mu, he gently lifts up Xia Wanyan, who is shedding tears and looks even more lovely. He also drops an order to Mu Ziyou in amanding voice, From today, you move to live in the maids room on the first floor! Chapter 10: I Will Never Let Anything Happen to Him Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie It never urred to Mu Ziyou that one day she would have been degraded from Li Qiaoshengs wife to a servant in his house! She wouldnt have felt the great difference mentally if the servants way of life had been imposed on her from the very first day. But the fact is that she is still Mrs. Li in title, yet living with the maid, Lan, and doing the same as, even more work than she does. At the same time, Xia Wanyan seems to have be the new Mrs. Li, who would speak for Mu Ziyou with hypocrisy when Li Qiaosheng is present. Yet when he is not at home and nobody is around, she would order her around, even humiliate her by all means mercilessly. Mu Ziyou puts up with all these and says nothing, just for the sake of her unborn baby. Though she seeds in keeping her pregnancy a secret from Li Qiaosheng and Xia Wanyan, she fails to hide it from Bai Yun. Mu Ziyou is cleaning Bai Yuns room when Qin Yang calls over. Seeing that Li Qiaoshengs motherfortably enjoys the sunshine with her narrowing eyes on the balcony, Mu Ziyou doesnt put herself on guard. She just walks up to a corner and picks up the phone in a subdued voice, Qin Yang, Qiaosheng refuses to divorce. But dont worry. The baby is fine. I will never let anything happen to him. I see. If you insist on divorcing him, I can try to help with that. Youyou, take good care of yourself, OK? As for your mom, I will keep an eye on her. Well, lets talk about that some other time. Thank you, Qin Yang. Ive got to go, bye. Mu Ziyou doesnt dare to chat long on the phone with piles of chores waiting for her to do. However, when she puts her phone back in the pocket and turns around back to cleaning, Bai Yun is standing right in front of her like a ghost. She then asks thoughtfully, Are you pregnant again? She seems to be talking to herself, No! Youve never had the abortion to remove it at all! Li Qiaosheng is not at home, but Xia Wanyan is right in the next room. Mu Ziyou rushes forward to cover her mouth, fearing that her rising volume would draw others attention. She begs in a whisper, No, no. Please believe me, Mrs. Li, this is Qiaoshengs baby and your biological grandson! No, it is my husbands blood! I wont let ite to this world. I swear I will definitely not let it get any fortune of our Lis family, never!!! You little bitch, slut- Bai Yun cant hate Mu Ziyou more for she believes firmly that her husband Li Wenkang had affairs with Mu Ziyou, their daughter-inw. After pushing her hard to the ground, Bai Yun begins to scan every corner of the room. Mu Ziyous belly bumps on the corner of the nightstand when she falls down. Immediately a fit of pain overwhelms her. Her failure to get up quickly wins the other party plenty of time. When she finally rises to her feet with her hands covering her lower abdomen and is about to rush out of the room, Bai Yunes to stand in her way with a pair of shiny scissors. She walks towards Mu with a grim smile on her lips. A bastards child could be nothing but a bastard. Haha As long as I am still breathing, I wont allow it to live!!! Now that you want to protect it with your life, then go to hell together!!! With these words, the scissors go straight down to Mus belly. To defend herself, Mu has to remove one hand from her belly to stop the scissors. Fortunately, she catches that fist with scissors. Mu Ziyou just intends to get the scissors out of her hand. While Bai Yun, though sick, seems to have gained enormous strength from somewhere and just wont let them go Xia Wanyan suddenly bursts into the room. Catching them wrestling with the scissors, she immediately lets out some loud and unceasing screams. Both Mu and Bai are terribly startled. Mu takes the lead to stop and takes a few steps back while Bai, who is not prepared for it, loses her bnce and falls forward. Mu steps aside subconsciously for the fear that she would still hurt her unborn baby. Unexpectedly, Bai Yun falls down with the scissors grasped tightly in her hand. And she never gets up again!This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Oh, my god! Help! Someone is killed here! Xia Wanyan sees a stream of blood slowlying out from underneath Bai Yuns body. She turns pale with fright. The idea to step up and get Bai up just stops in her mind in less than a second. She freezes her ongoing foot and turns to point at Mu Ziyou, whos still stunned at what has just happened, Its you, Mu Ziyou, you killed her. You killed Auntie Bai!!! Chapter 11: How Did She Die on Earth? Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie On receiving a call from Xia Wanyan, Li Qiaosheng immediately rushes back to the vi leaving an important meeting unfinished. But he is stillte. He is only in time to see the doctor put a piece of white cloth over his mothers body. Qiaosheng darling, Youyou is crazy! Once seeing Li, Xia Wanyan jumps into his arms, trembling fiercely, and looking at Mu Ziyou with her eyes full of fear. I didnt know why she and auntie came into a fight. But when I came in, I saw her raise the scissors and poke them into aunties heart! How how terrible! Auntie was killed like that. She died so miserably!This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Mu! Zi! You! Li Qiaosheng has no time tofort the woman in his arms. With a ferocious face, he strides forward and takes hold of Mus delicate neck between his fingers. He intensifies the strength and lifts Mu up off the ground by the neck. Mu Ziyou struggles desperately, with her cheeks choked red. She tries to defend herself, but cannot utter even one syble. At this moment, the mans killing and merciless eyes like cold and sharp ice knives are killing Mu Ziyou by cutting her into pieces little by little, including her heart. When she thinks she is about to die this way with a buzzing sound in the ears, the doctores and says something to Li Qiaosheng. And abruptly he lets go of Mu Ziyou and leaves with his arm around Xia Wanyans shoulders who is still weeping aside. So no one notices that Mu Ziyou falls to the ground with a miserable expression on her face and arches her body. Between her legses out a stream of red blood slowly. When Qin Yang hurries to the scene, he gets hell surprised! Regardless of the servants hindrance, Qin Yang picks up Mu Ziyou who is already unconscious and rushes out of the door. He drives so fast that he ignores the red lights several times on the road. Finally he himself rushes her into the operating room within the shortest time possible. Dont, dont touch my baby. Dont kill him, please! Dont- Mu Ziyou wakes up from her nightmare and jumps to sit up in the bed suddenly, subconsciously reaching out to touch her belly. But this action causes the infusion tube to be pulled up identally and blood is seen to trace back into the tube. Qin Yang has never left because he is so worried about Mu Ziyou. He thenes toward Mu Ziyou and pats her back down, Be careful! Dont move. Your baby is safe. Dont panic! He is still staying in your belly safely. Really? Thank you! Thank you, Brother! Hearing these words, Mu Ziyou cannot help bursting into tears of joy. However, Qin Yangs worries are clearly written all over his face. But Youyou, Mrs. Li What happened? What conflict did you have? What on earth caused her death? Do you believe me, Brother? I didnt kill her! It wasnt me who killed her. It was she who wanted to kill me with the scissors. But she identally fell to the ground and the scissors happened to poke into her heart. I didnt kill her! Believe me, please! Mu Ziyou pulls at Qin Yangs white coat at the beginning, butter she puts her hands around her head, with her face wrinkling and her whole body trembling. Seeing this scene, Qin Yang feels his heart held tight with anxiety andpassion. When he was about to stretch out his hand tofort her, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly starts to vibrate. Pardon? Hearing the news from the other end of the phone, Qin Yang slowly turns to look at the weak and fragile woman in bed. And the expression on his face turns from astonishment to seriousness. Mu Ziyou notices his strange expressions and watches him with tearful eyes, waiting for him to speak first. After a long moment, Qin Yang manages to organize his words and speaks out the truth carefully, Youyou, your mom She killed herself by jumping off the building because- On hearing her mothers suicide, Mu Ziyou is stunned at first, and then frantically she rushes out of the ward and goes downstairs! Chapter 12: Your Mom is Dead Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie In the letter Mu Qing left before she killed herself, she was still imploring Li Qiaosheng desperately to let her daughter go and she was willing to give up her own life for his mothers. When Mu Ziyou sees the letter and then stares at her lifeless mother lying in a pool of blood, she only feels that the sky has copsed and she is almost out of breath with the great pressure loomingrge. Ah Ignoring all the people around who are murmuring and gossiping, Mu Ziyou falls down onto the ground and suddenly lets out a long and crazy scream in despair. When Li Qiaosheng arrives, he happens to see this heartbreaking scene. He is touched too and his expression changes slightly. But when he thinks of his mothers death, his expression bes cold again. He walks over and grasps one of Mu Ziyous arms and says, Come on! Go to the funeral with me! At the same time, the medical staff also show up and intend to take Mu Qings body to the morgue. On seeing this, Mu Ziyou pushes Qiaoshengs hand hard away for the first time and struggles forward to protect her mothers body. She shakes her head with force and tries to keep the medical staff away. Go away! Dont take my mom away! My mom is fine. She can be cured! You cant give up on her yet!This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Youyou, dont behave like this. Your mom is dead. She did this just for you. If you hadnt killed Auntie Bai, your mom wouldnt have made such a big sacrifice. You should understand why she had done so Actually Xia Wanyan has been hiding herself among the crowd. She just rushes out to helpfort her the moment she sees Li Qiaoshenging. But these words irritate Mu Ziyous fragile nerves even more. She clearly knows that Bai Yun was not killed by her. Why should Mom atone for what she has never done? All anger in her heart suddenly spurts out. She then turns around and tussles with Xia Wanyan. She doesnt bother to mind that many people are around watching. She gets over and sits on Xia Wanyans body and firmly covers Xia Wanyans mouth with her hand and shouts, You are smearing me again! I didnt kill Qiaoshengs mom at all. I didnt! She herself fell down on the ground by ident! Seeing that the scene is getting out of control, Li Qiaosheng immediately signals with his eyes to the medical staff to take the dead woman away. At the same time, with a gloomy face, he takes Mu Ziyou in his arms who haspletely copsed. He leaves without even a nce back at Xia Wanyan who is still lying on the ground with a pale face. At the funeral for Bai Yun, Mu Ziyou, a dead-alive person now, thinks of her mother who has just died. Instead of taking care of her own mothers death, she is forced to kneel in front of the coffin of Bai Yun with her feet and hands restrained by the specially-made iron chains from her husband. On thinking of this, she cant contain herself any more and lets out a wail. People attending this funeral have heard her heart-breaking cry and think that she finallyes to repent and me herself for the crime she hasmitted. Even Li Qiaosheng thinks so. He has finished his call andes back from outside when he hears it. He is thinking of taking Mu Ziyou to the crematorium to see her mother for thest time when Mu Ziyou faints down because of the fits of pain in her lower abdomen. She cant sustain herself and falls down during which process her head hits against the corner of the coffin. Qin Yang, who is hiding among the crowd at the funeral, rushes to help Mu Ziyou, a step faster than Li Qiaosheng. He feels that Mu Ziyous vitality is draining away quickly. He suddenly shouts at her in anxiety, Youyou, wake up! Dont you care about your baby? Baby Mu Ziyou lets out the word with great effort and subconsciously puts her hands around her abdomen. However, her hands fall down finally because she is running out of strength. Qin Yang is flustered. He picks up the skinny woman in his arms with ease and starts to rush outside. But when Li Qiaosheng hears that the baby is still alive, he stops Qin Yang and wants to make clear of the situation. Li Qiaosheng, if you dont step aside, Youyou and your baby will both be dead! Qin Yang spares one hand and takes out and throws the real paternity test report on the ground. When Li Qiaosheng stares at the report dumbfounded, Qin Yang takes the advantage of it and rushes to the hospital. Xia Wangyan stands next to Li Qiaosheng, and her face changes when she sees the report. She wants to snatch away that report. But it is toote because Li Qiaosheng quickly picks up the report from the ground before her. After seeing the contents of the report, he feels chills suddenlying out from every pore of his whole body. Outside the operating room, the moment the light is off, Li Qiaosheng quickly steps forward and grasps the doctors arm who is still sweating and asks about Mu Ziyous condition. The doctor replies cautiously with an apologetic look, Sorry, President Li. Mrs. Lis will to survive is too weak. We really have tried our best. Chapter 13: Why Didn鈥檛 You Save Her Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Li Qiaoshengs instinctive reaction is that it cant be true that Mu Ziyou is already dead together with his unborn baby.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org. Despite being obstructed by Xia Wanyan, he rushes into the room after doctors and nursese out one after another, only in time to witness Qin Yang slowly pulling a piece of white cloth over Mu Ziyous face. Howe? She could make through that terrible ident sound and safe. How could it kill her so easily this time?! He steps forward and snatches away the white cloth with force. Whates into his sight is indeed Mu Ziyous little face which is so pale that it looks horrible. The blood on the forehead has dried. The closed eyes together with the deathly pallor of the lips make her look like a lifeless doll. Come on, Qiaosheng. She killed Auntie! Probably she died of the sense of guilt. Her mom also took her own life because of her. Therefore, she has gone to heaven to apany them. Whats more, Auntie will be sent to cremation soon! Could we go back now, Qiaosheng? With a guilty conscience, Xia Wanyan doesnt want to go into the room. But she feels that theres something weird about the man. She therefore keeps reminding Li that Mu has killed his mother, trying to make him ept the truth in the shortest time possible. Yes, its this frenzied woman who has killed his mother! First, her whore mother upset his mother and made her be lunatic and troublesome since then! Then, she stabbed his mother to death with scissors. They probably nned everything from the very beginning just to ruin his formerly happy family! Now they should be satisfied! How could they have died one after another then? He has not even let them pay for what they have done. How could they have died like this? Thinking of this, Li Qiaosheng turns to Qin Yang. He grabs at Qins cor and questions with anger. Arent you proficient in medicine? Arent you in intimate rtionship with Mu Ziyou? Then why didnt you save her?! I dont want to me you for the baby, but you couldnt even save the mother! How can you be a doctor? Youd better resign as soon as possible! Yes, you are right. Im thinking about this. Qin Yang signs to let go of him and retorts harshly, But, Li Qiaosheng, you should be the one who knows best of the reason why Youyou would have the least desire to live on, arent you? On hearing this, Lis face turns stiff slightly. And subconsciously he retreats the strength in his hands. Good! Very good, Mu Ziyou! Dont you think your death can end it all? What are you doing?! Are you crazy? Qin Yang has intended to take Mus body to the morgue. Yet unexpectedly Li Qiaosheng steps forward in his way and picks up the body together with the white cloth cover from the wheeled stretcher! Xia is also stunned, but she figures out what is happening immediately. The moment Li is about to step out of the operation room, she slowly falls to the ground with her hand on the stretcher and groans, Qiaosheng, dont go, please! Dont leave me behind! Im feeling really bad, and dizzy Li hesitates for a second, which wins Qin enough time to get back Mu Ziyous body. With no time to put it back onto the stretcher, he runs straight away with it held in his arms. Could you help me up, Brother Qiaosheng? Its so cold on the floor. Am am I dying as well? Noticing Lis eyes are still following Qin Yang who is disappearing in the distance, she then utters several moans as if she is suffering some great pain. Li Qiaosheng could do nothing but clench his fists. Eventually he draws back his sight, picks up the fainted Xia Wanyan in his arms and strides out of the door in a hurry. Chapter 14: It鈥檚 Only Because of Hypoglycemia Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie The attending doctor who treated Xia Wanyan formerly is performing an operation. So Li Qiaosheng has to find another doctor who looks rtively free in the corridor to check Xia Wanyans condition. Actually, Xia Wanyan just pretends to be ill so she feels uneasy and worried when she finds that the doctor is unknown. Its no big deal. She probably gets the palpitation out of some shock. Take it easy, young man. Your girlfriend is rather healthy except that she is a little weak. Dont worry! This doctor is a senior whoforts Li Qiaosheng with a smile. However, Li feels somehow uneasy on hearing the word girlfriend and exins subconsciously, Im married. And she is just one of my younger sisters. Oh. Sorry to have mistaken your rtionship! The doctor feels a little awkward and is about to leave with an apologetic expression on his face. But Li stops him, Wait a moment, doctor. Does my sister get Before the word anemiaes out of his mouth, Xia Wanyans face has already turned terribly pale out of fear. Last moment, she is still disturbed by Qiaosheng calling her sister. The next second, she interrupts Qiaoshengs words in panic, Brother Qiaosheng, I ate quite little for lunch so maybe I feel so dizzy just because of hypoglycemia. Could you please go and buy me some tasty food downstairs? OK. Ill be back in a minute. The pampering expression returns to Li Qiaoshengs face. After patting her little head, he turns to leave the ward. The only difference is that the moment he steps out of the ward, his face turns expressionless. He catches up with that doctor in several long strides and continues to ask about Xia Wanyans illness. Doctor, I wanted to ask you whether you found that she suffers from astic anemia. What? Astic anemia? No! Your sister doesnt have a single symptom of anemia. Then why does she often feel dizzy? And her former attending doctor made this diagnosis and told us that she could only survive by getting transfusion continually. And her blood type happens to be Rh-negative so. Li Qiaoshengs face bes sullen when he hears the doctors answer.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. The doctor waves his hand determinedly. The diagnosis of that doctor must be wrong. Im confident in my medical skills. Young man, your sisters dizziness may be just attributed to hypoglycemia like she said, but it could not be the so-called anemia. OK. Thanks a lot. Actually, the reason why Li Qiaosheng suddenly asks this question is that Mu Ziyous words before death ur to him. After all, Mu Ziyou who has the same blood type as Xia Wanyans is dead. If Xia really suffers this illness, then who can offer her the blood for transfusion like Mu anytime and anywhere? Mu Ziyou once pointed out that Xia didnt have astic anemia and she just faked it. Therefore, today he wants to verify her words. Unexpectedly, Li Qiaosheng still bes dramatically furious even though he has already been mentally prepared to hear the truth from the doctor with his own ears. Why did Wanyan tell lies? She and Mu Ziyou had been the best friends forever(BFF) in the world, hadnt they? How could she, an always kind and gentle girl, do such a thing even though Mu Ziyou treated her badly? But what if Mu Ziyou told the truth? Then a lot of other things need to be checked again apart from Xia Wanyans pretending to be ill Naturally, Xia Wanyan can think of everything Li Qiaosheng has thought about. She hurriedly finds her former attending doctors phone number and calls him. Thank God! The doctors phone is picked up this time. Whats up, Miss Xia? Tell me, is the so-called astic anemia curable? Mu Ziyou is dead. If I pretend to be suffering from this disease, what about my Rh-negative blood transfusion in the future? Its troublesome. Could you tell me how I can pretend to be cured? This illness is actually difficult to be cured. Hum, I got an idea! You can have a bone marrow transnt! I can pretend to do such an operation on you and then announce that youre cured. Bone marrow transnt? All right. If you can find the matching bone marrow, just carry out the n as youve designed! Xia Wanyan can do nothing but agree to the doctors suggestion after pondering about it over and over again. Chapter 15: She Let Us Dispose of It on Our Own Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan is still designing a bigger lie to patch up this one, but Li Qiaosheng takes actions faster than she.Original from N?velDrama.Org. Previously, Li Qiaosheng totally believed what Wanyan had said. He just listened to her tearfulints without investigating the specific situation in which she fell off the building. Xia Wanyan said that because of her intimate rtionship with Qiaosheng after his marriage, Mu Ziyou was very unhappy. So Mu Ziyou asked her out to have a talk. But they didnt end up well and Mu Ziyou pushed her down from the rooftop in a rage. Since Xia Wanyan pretended to be sick first, Li Qiaosheng feels OK to have someone check the surveince video of that day. The angle of surveince camera is not quite direct, but it is clear enough for him to see the actual scene. He can see in the video that they were in a dispute. Suddenly Xia Wanyan herself got onto the tform and then turned and jumped! How could it be like this? Li Qiaosheng freezes the video at the scene when Xia Wanyan turned and jumped. Still he cannot believe she could have done this. After Xia Wanyan woke up she got into his embrace and pointed at Mu Ziyou,ining, Youyou, why cant you talk with me peacefully? You have changed! Why are you so mean to me? I dont want to take Qiaosheng away from you. If you dont want to see me, then, then I will leave At that time, Mu Ziyou was apparently stunned at her words and wanted to exin, but he interrupted her arbitrarily and told her to get out of the ward. After hearing that Xia Wanyan had lost too much blood and had been detected to have the rare Rh-negative blood, Mu Ziyou proposed to draw blood from her because she has the very same blood type. At that time, he thought that she was feeling sorry for what she had done to Wanyan. But now, it seems that Wanyan has changed to another person whom he cannot recognize any more. As for Ziyou, I did have wronged her Li Qiaosheng says to himself. Thinking of this, Li Qiaosheng remembers something else. He then calls the hospital. Where is Mu Ziyou? How did you deal with my wife after her death? Oh, Mr. Li. Mrs. Li had been unimed for several days after her death until Dr. Qin Yang, who resigned from our hospital, took her away and put her to earth in the name of her brother. If you need the specific site, you can ask him. Unimed? Although he has been busy with his mothers burial matters and his own work in the past few days and has forgotten to go and sign the death notice, he has been waiting for the hospitals notice. Why didnt you call me? We did. It seems to be answered by Oh, by Miss Xia. She said that you had been divorced and let us dispose of it on our own. Huh, what on earth is Xia Wanyan nning? After getting Qin Yangs contact information, Li Qiaosheng calls him immediately. But the phone isnt answered. When he is about to redial, he receives a call from Xia Wanyan. This time, Lis tone is not so gentle as before. He asks indifferently, Whats up? Brother Qiaosheng, my incurable anemia can be cured now! The doctor said that he had helped me find the matching bone marrow and I can have a bone marrow transnt right away! The sess rate of the operation is quite high. As long as it seeds, I will be able to live like a normal person in the future! Xia Wanyan at the other end tells him the good news with great enthusiasm without noticing his different attitude. After hearing this, Lis brows slightly knitted together. Huh, bone marrow transntation? You intend to go on making up stories? You found the matching bone marrow so soon? My examination report has juste out and I am going to tell you Since Mu Ziyou is dead, you cant drag on with your disease like this. What if there is no blood for you to draw one day? Fortunately, my bone marrow also matches yours. Dont bother others. Just use mine. Xia Yanyan didnt expect that Qiaosheng also considered bone marrow transnt. It is such a big surprise! But the bone marrow transnt is just a lie. She cannot let Qiaosheng take such a risk. After thinking for a moment, Xia Yanyan bursts into a cry and says, Brother Qiaosheng, you are so kind to me! But, no! Ive known about your kindness but I cannot ept your bone marrow donation. What if the donation causes some harm to your original healthy body? Brother Qiaosheng, its OK for me to use the bone marrow I have already found. I need not change to use yours. How can I be relieved if you use others bone marrow? Wanyan, you dont have to be so polite with me. It is Mu Ziyou who made you like this. As her husband, Im supposed to pay you back for her. You may just take it this way. After saying this, Li Qiaosheng hangs up the phone abruptly. He wants to see how on earth Xia Wanyan will be able to continue keeping the secret of the fact of her faked disease. Chapter 16: I鈥檇 Like the Marriage Arrangement Postponed Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan had actually conspired with her doctor to im that they have found suitable bone marrow and then to fake an operation. But the thing gets out of control and she doesnt know what to do when Li Qiaosheng said suddenly that he could donate his bone marrow. After all, she does love Li Qiaosheng heart and soul, otherwise she wouldnt have fallen out with Mu Ziyou and made her enemy. Now that the bone marrow transnt thing is just a supposed operation, how can she allow the doctor to really take the bone marrow from his body? Dad, Im in trouble! I need your help At the end of her wits, Xia Wanyan calls her father for help. Getting to know the whole story, Xia Zhiguo, Xia Wanyans father, starts tofort his beloved daughter. Okay, I got it. Take it easy. In fact, I think it could be your time Therees the day and Li Qiaosheng is preparing for the operation. Qiaosheng! Suddenly therees a solemn male voice from behind. Seeing Xia Zhiguo, the chairman of the board of apany, Li Qiaosheng slightly lifts the corners of his mouth and steps forward, How are you doing, Mr. Xia? Good. Qiaosheng, Im quite clear about your feelings toward my daughter, which has fallen into my eyes as a father. Although the loss of a bone marrow (amon sense mistake) would not do you much harm, Wanyan doesnt think so. She is worried that you might get hurt. After all, we can get others with money. But yours is different, Qiaosheng! Since your wife is gone, what about letting Wanyan take over her responsibility to take care of you? Dad! Just at this time, Xia Wanyanes over with the help of a nurse. She puckers her lips and says coquettishly, Its been only a few days since Youyous death. Even though she made Qiaosheng lose his mom, she haspensated him with her death. Anyway, Youyou has been Qiaoshengs wife. How can you urge him to marry me at this time? Im sorry, Qiaosheng. I have thought it over and Ive decided that I cant use your bone marrow. Its such a big favor that I cant afford anything other than myself to pay you back. Anyway, the doctor told me that he had found the matching bone marrow for me, so dont worry about it. She turns to face the man. Li raises his eyebrows and finally gets the essence of what the father and daughter want to convey to him Give up donating his bone marrow to Xia Wanyan; otherwise, marry her. He lowers his head in deep thinking. When he raises his eyes and looks into Xia Wanyans expectant eyes, he finally says slowly, Well then, I would like to follow your wish, Mr. Xia. Wanyan is a good girl, and Im pleased to be able to marry her. But, since it hasnt been long since my mothers funeral, Id like the marriage arrangement postponed for a while. Great! Of course.Original from N?velDrama.Org. Do you mean it, Qiaosheng? Do you really want to marry me? Xia Wanyan rushes to Li Qiaosheng with a cheer, her eyes sparkling, totally forgetting that shes still faking a patient. Yet her expression is still somewhat scrupulous. Seeing her reaction, Li cant help being touched again. There might be some unspeakable reasons for her to deceive me. Li thinks to himself. Why not? Do you remember the appointment we made when we were just little kids? I promised you that I would definitely marry you if youre still single when we grow up. He softens his voice naturally. However, Xia is irritated on hearing this because she knows clearly that the appointment was made between him and Mu Ziyou, that dead BFF of her! Although Xia is almost bursting with hatred inside, she appears to be quite moved and hugs Li tightly. Why?! Why does he only see Mus image in their childhood rather than her image when they are grown up, even though she has done so much for him?! Chapter 17: It鈥檚 More Like an Accident Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Li Qiaosheng certainly wont donate his bone marrow to Xia Wanyan because his doesnt match with hers at all. However, since Xia Wanyan can collude with the doctor, so can he. Its not an effort-needing job for him to find a substitute. He thought that Xia Wanyan would tell him the truth since things have gone this far. Unexpectedly, Xia Wanyan epted his bone marrow with peace of mind since he promised to marry her. Her so-called attending doctor even ims after the operation that it was rather sessful and she wouldnt rely on others for blood transfusion any more when she passes out thereafter. Someplex feelings flood into Li Qiaoshengs heart. The so-called operation was sessful with the bone marrow he offered, which was actually a mismatch to hers. What does this mean? It seems that this girl is going to lie all the way to the end. Then anything else white has been deliberately called ck by her? It urs to him that she has kept on using Mu Ziyou for having killed his mother. When he calms down now, he thinks it necessary to check the truth of this matter too In Lis house. In the vi, all the servants, no matter old or young, are ordered to stand in a line, facing directly Li Qiaoshengs merciless and arrogant face. Many of them are so scared that they hold their breath and do nothing but look down at their toes. Tell me, what exactly happened between my mother and my wife that day? No lies! I want the ones of you who heard with your own ears or saw with your own eyes the event to tell me nothing but the truth! The man repeated gloomily. Seeing the mans anger, Lan, thinking of Xia Wanyan behind her, structures her words in her mind and steps ahead boldly, I Ive heard something, Sir. I was doing some cleaning outside the door that day when I heard Mdy (Lis mother) and Mrs. Li seemed toe into a dispute about a baby or something. I left when Miss Xia came. Later, I heard Miss Xia scream and I rushed to the scene, only to see the scissors in Mrs. Lis hand stabbing into Mdys heart! Huh? Are you sure that you did see Mu Ziyou stab the scissors into my mothers body? Li Qiaoshengs voice gets even colder. Ye yes The maid Lan dare not look into the Lis chilling eyes, but she still sticks to what she has said. Hearing her words, Li Qiaosheng utters without a change of expressions, Okay, then, would you like to go to the police station with me to record your witness statement because your words seem to be a little different from the clues found by the policeOriginal from N?velDrama.Org. Hah? Sir, I was cleaning the courtyard when the tragedy happened. I saw that, actually, it was was Mdy who first found a pair of scissors and wanted to kill Mrs. Li. Another timid voice is suddenly heard. Li Qiaoshengs eyes darken for a second and he signals her to continue. Then I followed over there as well as soon as I heard a scream. When I made it, Mdy was lying straight on the floor, while Mrs. Li was standing beside her. So its more like an ident to me Its true. Li Qiaosheng has talked with the doctor who arrived earlier than he and also noticed such a detail. If Mu Ziyou did stab the scissors into his mothers heart, his mother shouldnt have fallen to the ground by such a posture. Li Qiaosheng therefore turns his deep sea-like eyes to Lan again. After all, she was the first person who made it to the room besides Xia Wanyan. He confirms the information to her once again, Zhang Lan, did you see my wife stabbing the scissors into my mothers heart? I, I I, I saw Mdy fall with the scissors in her hand It couldnt be a suicide, therefore I took it for granted that its Mrs. Li, who stabbed and Oh, well, I know! The corners of Li Qiaoshengs mouth slowly lift a little with coldness. Go to the housekeeper for this months sry and leave. The liar maid is not weed here. Zhang Lan haspletely flustered at his words. After all, she can hardly find such abor-saving and high-paying job if she leaves. She kneels down and almost pulls at the bottom edge of the mans pants in pleading. No, please! I will tell the truth from now on. It was Miss Xia who told me to say so. It was she who made me frame up Mrs. Li. It had nothing to do with me! Chapter 18: She Has Been Dismissed by Sir Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Its Xia Wanyan again! Li Qiaoshengs face is more overcast with irritation at this moment. He really cannot understand why Wanyan wants to frame up her best friend again and again! After Li Qiaosheng figures out the whole thing, he still mercilessly fires Zhang Lan. Unexpectedly, this woman tells him another secret in order to keep her job! Sir, I still have something very important to tell you. Just dont drive me away. If I get fired, my whole family will What is it? Tell me, right now! The man interrupts her pleading with impatience. Licking at her lips, Zhang Lan seems to have made up her mind and goes on, Well. It was not an ident that Mdy fell down the stairs and it was not Mrs. Lis fault. Instead, its its Miss Xia! Because Mdy didnt want Miss Xia to be together with you, Miss Xiaid her murderous hands on her And when Mrs. Li saw Mdy fall, she rushed to help her but Mdy mistakenly thought that it was she who pushed her down. Sir, I did this against my own will because my child is sick and I badly need a big sum of money. Miss Xia said that she was willing to help me out if I could conceal the truth for her, so I OK, I will pay for your childs medical bills, but you must leave today. How can he continue to use a person who can do bad things against her conscience for the sake of profits? As for Xia Wanyan, it turns out that she wants to be Mrs Li! Well, if she wants to be Mrs. Li, then he will let her be his wife so that he can see whether she can perform this role well But it is a little weird why his mother strongly opposed Wanyan to be together with him at that time. It makes sense that his mother objects to his marriage to Mu Ziyou, who is the daughter of the whore and who has an ambiguous incestuous rtionship with his father. But as for Xia Wanyan, she is the only daughter of the Xia family. Although her family is not as rich as his, their marriage is still a perfect match. In his memory if it didnt go wrong, the fact was that his mother actually hoped that he could marry Wanyan when his father forced him to marry Mu Ziyou. What on earth has happened that caused his mother to change her mind suddenly? In his memory, Xia Wanyan was so kind that she wouldnt even step on an ant. Would she kill his mother just for bing his wife? How could she be like this? Are there any unspoken troubles for her? After Xia Wanyanes back from the hospital, she obviously feels that there is something different in the vi. Yes, its the atmosphere. Its the light in the servants eyes towards her that makes her ufortable Xiaoli, where is Lan? Xia Wanyan cant find Zhang Lan in the kitchen. Finally she stops a maid and asks. Xiaoli doesnt dare to say too much. She simply replies, She has been dismissed by Sir. If you want to eat something, you can also tell me. Dismissed? Xia Wanyan stands there dumbfounded for a moment and then some bad feeling shes through her mind. Oh, no, thanks. You may go on with your own work. After saying this, Xia Wanyan trots upstairs, holding the hemline of her skirt. Li Qiaosheng is not in his study, nor in the bedroom. However, she hears the sound of shower water in the bathroom. Xia Wanyan swallows and walks into the bedroom quietly. She seats herself on the edge of the bed in a sweet and cute manner and waits for Qiaosheng to finish his shower. Zhang Lan was suddenly dismissed, which makes her feel that she might have been betrayed by her. Otherwise, Brother Qiaosheng should have gone to the hospital as usual to pick her up instead of just sending a driver! Finally, Li Qiaoshenges out from the bathroom with only a bath towel on him. When he sees Xia Wanyan sitting on the bed, he is not surprised and says, You are back. Pack up your own things. After dinner, I will take you back to your own home.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Why, Brother Qiaosheng? Xia Wanyan is so surprised on hearing this that her emotions blow up and she challenges him without much attention to her choice of words, Is that Lan? Did she tell you something bad about me? Something bad? There is no enmity between you two. Why does she want to say bad things about you? I want you to go home because you will be my wife soon. Shouldnt we avoid meeting each other before the wedding? There is a hint of yfulness in the mans eyes. Xia also realizes that she seems to be a little too excited and tries to cover up in a hurry. Oh, I see I heard that she loves gossiping about people behind their backs. Otherwise, why did she suddenly get fired by you? Her child is sick and it affects her work a lot. I let her go home to take care of her kid. She did want to tell me something. But I was impatient to listen to her and let her leave. Hearing this, the heart in her mouth finally falls back to its ce and she echoes, She loves gossiping about something out of nothing. So you are wise not to listen to her. Wanyan, I really dont like listening to lies, so except private matters, youd better not hide anything else from me. Otherwise, I will be very angry. Li Qiaosheng wants to give her an opportunity to confess. Chapter 19: All These Must Have Been Schemed by Him Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan is somewhat panic-stricken at the mans words, though she denies that she has hidden anything. She knows that this man in front of her is really someone. And she knows its just a piece of cake for him to find out the truth if he wants to. She dared to do all the things previously just by taking advantage of his trust in her. What now? It seems that Lan should not be allowed to live in the world any longer. Otherwise she would probably reveal everything she has done to Qiaosheng someday! Li Qiaosheng finally got Qin Yang on the phone. Hello? Who is that? Where did you bury my wife? Mr. Qin Yang, its very bad manners for you to take away my wife without a word, isnt it?Original from N?velDrama.Org. Your wife? Huh Qin Yang recognizes the voice at the other end of the line and responds with slight amusement. Its been several days since I brought Youyou out of the hospital. Yet as the husband, you just remember to think of her whereabouts till today! What a husband you are! He goes on coldly, Did you really take Youyou as your wife? Well, this is my domestic affair. Tell me, where on earth did you bury her? Li Qiaoshengs hand on the phone tightens with the words unconsciously. He would definitely beat him up if Qin Yang was talking with him face to face! However, Qin Yangs attitude is rather indifferent. Sorry. Arent you already divorced? Then all the things concerning her have nothing to do with you at all and I have no obligation to inform you. Goodbye. Hearing the ruthless buzzing from the dead line, Li Qiaosheng could control himself no more. Damn it! He smashes his phone to the ground in a rage. Well, since Qin Yang wont tell him, then he will go through all the cemeteries one by one until he finds the ce where Mu Ziyou is buried! At the Xiaspany. Xia Zhiguo suddenly receives a call from his man. Bad news, Chairman Xia. We took Zhang Lan to the outskirts as you ordered. But before we had time to end her life, several men in ck appeared out of nowhere and snatched her away. It happened that one of our men recognized one of them. He said said that they work for Li Qiaosheng! What? In this sense, Qiaosheng has long known that someone might threaten Zhang Lans safety? No, no. In this sense, all these must have been schemed by him! Thisd has probably known all the things Wanyan has done from Zhang Lan. Therefore, it seems that the matter requires further thoughts then At the same time, the assistant finally gets Li Qiaosheng on line. He says anxiously, Mr. Li, as you expected, Zhang Lan had a mishap. I couldnt get through to your number then, so I decided myself to save her first in urgency. But, they might have recognized us Well, no big deal. Now that they have known about it, they should be the ones to be more anxious. On knowing that its you who saved her, Zhang Lan was so thankful that she revealed a lot more, which I have recorded and sent to your phone. Good. Although Li Qiaosheng has broken his mobile phone, theputer is still in use. He logs on his QQ ount quickly and receives and downloads the audio file. He immediately clicks on the mouse. It is Zhang Lans voice intermingled with her sobs. In fact, Mrs. Li is really a nice person. She regarded Miss Xia as her best friend, but Miss Xia didnt. Her only interest is to get close to Sir! However, Mrs. Lis nature was so innocent that it allowed Miss Xia to cast in a bone between you and her. The rtionship between Mrs. Li and Milord (Lis father) is not like that Sir has imagined. Dear me! I have heard something in Milords study and I have also seen something. You can go and see for yourself if you dont believe me. Its in um, in the drawer on the right hand. They indeed had been innocent. Chapter 20: Attempting to Separate Them Proofread by Zhou Zhijie When Mu Ziyou was sent to their home, even she herself didnt know her mother had been infected with HIV. And before the outbreak of Mu Qings illness, Li Qiaosheng did have some good memories with Mu Ziyou, because at that time he viewed Mu Ziyou as an orphan who was abandoned by her parents. From his point of view, Mu Ziyou was very poor and boarding in their home and he was supposed to treat her kindly. Butter, he overheard his parents quarrel and got to know that Mu Ziyous mother was his fathers first love. ording to his mother, Mu Qing was a shameless mistress who seduced his father. Therefore, he also changed his attitude when facing Mu Ziyou. Especially during the period when Xia Wanyan came to visit Mu Ziyou but actually she was seeing Li Qiaosheng, he also got to know many secrets from Xia Wanyan. For example, Mu Ziyous mother was engaged in that kind of upation in Japan. Mu Ziyou even doesnt know who on earth is her father. Besides, Mu Ziyou and Xia Wanyan were supposed to be best friends, but Qiaosheng always noticed Mu Ziyou bullying Xia Wanyan, which made him form an uneducated and bad-behaved impression of Mu Ziyou and which alienated him from her further. However, are all these false? After hearing Zhang Lans words, Li Qiaosheng stepped into his fathers study for the first time after his fathers death. In that drawer, he found a lot of hand-written letters, photos and so on. The letters were written a long time ago. Some are love letters written by his father to Mu Ziyous mother and other are innermost thoughts and feelings that Mu Ziyous mother wrote to his father. He reads through all letters one by one and finally figures out what kind of emotional entanglement was among thest generation! In fact, Mu Ziyous mother and his father were their first love for each other. Their life was really happy and sweet when they were together. And even the name Mu Ziyou had already been named by then because the Chinese characters Mu and Zi together form the word Li! They had an agreement that if a girl was born, she would be named after the mothers family name, and if a boy, he would be named after the fathers family name. But sweet and happy life didntst long. After Mu Qings best friend, namely, his mother Bai Yun met his father, she fell in love with him at first sight. And she designed all kinds of schemes, attempting to separate them. But because his father trusted Mu Ziyous mother, misunderstanding between them could be resolved very quickly every time even if it kept appearing ceaselessly. Until the rtionship between them was found out by their families, his fathers family were opposed to their rtionship because of the poor background of Mu Ziyous mother. Instead, he and Bai Yun were expected to get married. Bai Yun also knew it, so she designed more schemes and finally forced his father to marry her. So, in fact, his own mother was the one who separated his father and Mu Qing! What is more heartbreaking is that Mu Qings terrible upation experience in Japan was also caused by Bai Yun. She ordered several men to sexually assault Mu Qing by turn and then sent her penniless to Japan! No wonder his father on his deathbed asked him to make sure that he would take good care of Mu Ziyou, and he absolutely prohibited him from divorcing. His father also said that if he chose to end their marriage, he would surely regret for it in the future.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. But as for what exactly the regret means, Li Qiaosheng has not figured it out yet . However, he is now really regretful for his misunderstanding and hurt to Mu Ziyou when she was alive and who is now dead! No, no, he must find her burial ce, at least he can express his apology by her grave! Mr. Li, we searched every cemetery in this city, but did not find a woman called Mu Ziyou, or anyone with the same name. What? Hearing the assistants report, Li Qiaosheng stays stunned for a moment. But soon, another hope inexplicably lights up in his heart. Is it possible that Mu Ziyou actually is not dead? How could such a tenacious girl die so easily? Chapter 21: Might Not Be Thoroughly True Proofread by Zhou Zhijie When Xia Wanyan gets to know that Li Qiaosheng has already known the mistakes she made from her father, she suddenly feels that the sky is copsing. Wanyan, dont worry. Qiaosheng trusts you so much. You can exin it to him. Do you know how to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial? In short, as long as he is willing to marry you, it will be fine. As for taking Zhang Lans life, you may shirk the responsibility and shift the me onto me and say that you dont know anything about it. Xia Zhiguo really pampers his daughter. Because he is a carrier of HIV, he dare not try having children, thats why he married a woman who cannot give birth. However, once he got drunken in a social activity and had sex with a hostess. Unexpectedly the hostess got pregnant and gave birth to a pair of twin babies! After he learned about this, he took one of the babies to the hospital for examination. He found that the baby carried no sign of infection so he brought her back and let his wife raise her like their own child. That baby is just Xia Wanyan. Until now, Xia Wanyan still doesnt know that her biological mother is the kind of person whom she spurns most. Xia Wanyan follows his fathers advice and clears her thoughts. Not until she has the words ready does she have the courage toe to Li Qiaoshengs office. Li is busy with the work at hand. When he hears the knock on the door, he subconsciously thinks it is his assistant. Without raising his head he says, Come in. Brother Qiaosheng, its me. Therees a timid voice. Hearing this, Li Qiaosheng put down the documents and looks at her with a poker face. Oh? Whats up? Hearing Li Qiaoshengs cold voice, Xia Wanyan wrinkles her face, purses her lips and tears drip down immediately. Brother Qiaosheng, are you angry with me? I just got to know that my dad has made trouble for Sister Lan Can you listen to my exnation? What Lan said might not be thoroughly true, right? Okay, I can give you this opportunity to exin. Says the man generously. Striking a pose of listening, he oveps his long legs and idly looks at the little woman who is excellent at crying and acting. Xia Wanyan feels hopeful again so she tries harder to show her grievance. Brother Qiaosheng, Lan must have told you that I framed Youyou deliberately, right? But how could she use the word frame?! I.. I just couldnt stand that she had you to her own and showed it off to me. Brother Qiaosheng, obviously, you liked me, but you married her! You dont know howcent she was behind you! Sometimes I was so angry that I make some troubles for her. I Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. My time is limited, youd better pick something important to say. The man looks a little impatient. Xia Wanyan bites at her lower lip and decides toy her cards because Li Qiaoshengs meaning is already very obvious, Well, Lan must have said that I deliberately pushed Auntie Bai downstairs, right? But it was not the case. Because I had something on my mind then and didnt notice that Auntie was walking in front of me. I bumped into her and she fell downstairs! Later, I was afraid that you would me me and thought I did it deliberately, so I hid myself And it was Youyou who killed Auntie Bai, because when I entered the room, I just saw them scrambling for a pair of scissors. When Youyou saw me, she was afraid and she quickly let go of the scissors while Auntie Bai was still snatching at them. She fell forward, which caused the scissors in her hands poke into her chest! Finished? Brother Qiaosheng, you She couldnt tell his emotion from his words now, so she couldnt help but ask. But Li Qiaosheng just replies sinctly, Well, I know. You can go back and I wont me you. Chapter 22: The Girl with a Mask Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Hearing that Qiaosheng wont me her, Xia Wanyan feels greatly relieved and leaves him alone without further disturbance. Obediently she retrieves from his office. As soon as she is out of the door, Li Qiaosheng slightly lifts a corner of his mouth, his eyes full of disdain. If she hade round and confessed all her mistakes honestly instead ofining about her being wronged, he would possibly forgive her. However, things turns out that she has not realized her mistakes at all, and it killed hisst bit of tender affection for her. From now on, he will think about nothings but how to make her pay the price she deserves As for his fathers death, since Li Qiaosheng now knows about the love between his father and Mu Ziyou s mother, he can understand why his father would sacrifice his own life to protect Mu Ziyou from injury in that car ident. He thinks about his mothers death. If Mu Ziyou killed her by ident, it is more tolerable than Xia Wanyans pushing his mother downstairs on purpose and her fabricating lies to deceive him. The date of their wedding is still on the due schedule only because he wants to see if Mu Ziyou will show up at the wedding. As for getting the marriage license, Li Qiaosheng applies various excuses to get it postponed. Xia Wanyan at this time feels guilty in heart for the filthy deeds shemitted, which were exposed by Zhang Lan. She therefore has no gut to force Li Qiaosheng to acquire the marriage license before the wedding. Since everybody in the city knows about their due wedding, why should she worry about his refusal to get the marriage licenseter? Though it is the first wedding for Xia Wanyan, yet the second one for Li Qiaosheng, which means this wedding cannot be too luxurious. Fortunately, her father did a lot of work behind to ensure his daughter a happy wedding: he contacted various TV stations secretly, asking them to give live broadcasting on the scene! Therees the big day finally. Xia Wanyan is called up early in the morning for make-up and dress-up. Not allowed to eat freely, she could only satisfy her stomach with water. As a result, she drank too much and has to go to thedies room carrying her somewhat heavy wedding dress. Suddenly someone behind calls her to stop. The girl, with a mask, iming to be the assistant of the dresser,es to help her with the wedding dress. With her help, Xia Wanyan finally answers the call of nature. While washing her hands, the masked girl suddenly reveals herplete face, exactly the face of the dead Mu Ziyou! You, you are Youre still alive?! Being terribly astonished, Xia Wanyan quickly regains her mind. Mu Ziyou smiles slightly. Yeah, Im still alive. Once I stand in front of Qiaosheng, he will be charged with the offence of bigamy and your marriage will be void consequently. No! No. Youyou, I apologize for what I have done to you. All is all my fault. You can punish me in whatever way you like. But its me that Brother Qiaosheng loves. We have been through a lot and finally are able to be together. Please, please leave us alone, will you? Xia Wanyan will never let her ruin the wedding, so she has to give in. She almost kneels down in front of her and begs bitterly for her mercy.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. On hearing her words, Mu Ziyou cant help muttering, Yes, the one he loves has always been you, never me. Youyou, I can apologize to you in anyway you like, but it is my wedding day today. You maye if you want, but never take off the mask please, OK? I You think too much. I have no interest in spoiling your wedding with Li Qiaosheng. Xia Wanyan, I juste to ask you about one thingwhat role did you y in my mothers death?! Mu Ziyou doesnt want to waste time on her. Interrupting her nagging utterance, Mu gets directly to the point. Chapter 23: Vicious to Such an Extent Proofread by Zhou Zhijie The reason why Mu Qing jumped off the building to kill herself was not because she wanted tomit suicide herself, but Mu Ziyou finally learned about the truth from Qin Yang, because she couldnt have let go of her mothers death deep in her heart. Qin Yang identally found from the monitoring video that the person who came into the ward on the day of her mothers death was not Li Qiaosheng, but Xia Wanyan! She probably told Mu Qing that Mu Ziyou had killed Qiaoshengs mother. Mu Qing obviously did not believe that her daughter could be so malicious. Soon after Xia Wanyan whispered something to her, Mu Qing took the paper Xia passed her, picked up a pen and slowly wrote a note. After handing over the suicide note to Xia Wanyan, Mu Qing turned and jumped off the building. Just then Li Qiaosheng walked into the ward. Xia Wanyan handed the note to him and exaggerated about the whole thing. No sooner had Li Qiaosheng rushed downstairs than Mu Ziyou arrived. After reading the suicide note, Mu Ziyou thought Li Qiaosheng had said something bad to her mother which resulted in her suicide. She had med Li Qiaosheng for her mothers death by mistake until she got to know that it had been Xia Wanyan who had schemed all these. So Mu Ziyou didnt want to have any rtionship with Li Qiaosheng any more after Qin Yang helped her to fake her death. She just wanted to let him think that she has been dead. But she could not ept her mothers innocent death, especially when they would get married so quickly! Seeing them so happy in the pictures, Mu Ziyou felt her heart was full of hatred. Xia Wanyan was scared to step back several steps by Mu Ziyous murderous eyes until her back touched the cold wall, Youyou, Auntiemitted suicide because of you, didnt she? How, how could it possibly have anything to do with me? You dont admit it? Fine. Ill have to turn to legal help. After all, there is a big difference between voluntary and passive suicide. No, Youyou, please dont. Let me tell you. Because Li Qiaosheng thought that you killed his mother, he had ordered to stop Aunties medicine by then. You know, Auntie would be not far from death if she had no drugs to control her disease. Therefore, she chose to help you atone before her death. You should understand your mothers good intentions! Xia Wanyan, you Mu Ziyou cant believe that her best friend can be vicious to such an extent. She has intended to give her a chance to admit her mistakes. Now it seems that it is not severe enough to punish her byw! Suddenly a de pops up from Mu Ziyous hand which shows her determination to die together with her! However, a strong force strikes her from the side of her body. The very man who takes hold of her waist tightly, at the same time gets her hand with the knife under control. Xia Wanyan immediately changes to a crying face as soon as she sees the man is Li Qiaosheng. But this time, before she begins to pour out her grievance, Li has picked up Mu Ziyou by the waist and turns to leave in another direction, without even a nce at his bride. Let let me go, Li Qiaosheng, you bastard! Mu Ziyou identally cuts the mans arm while struggling. But he is not at all affected as if he were not the one who is bleeding.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. She thinks that he misunderstands her again by thinking that she is that kind of womaning to bully Xia Wanyan so she is so furious and restless. But, seeing him bleeding, Mu Ziyou felt a little distressed at the bottom of her heart. Finally, she is tired of struggling. Not wanting to see him, she keeps her eyes tightly closed, letting him carry her wherever he wants. He probably will throw her out of the hotel! Chapter 24: Leave Them Together for Goo Proofread by Zhou Zhijie In the presidential suite, Li Qiaosheng looks at Mu Ziyou carefully for a long time before putting her down. It has been half a year since hest saw her. The ugly scar on her face has disappeared. Mu Ziyou right now has a perfect and pretty face, and any expression, such as a frown or a smile only, can touch any mans heart. It works the same on Li Qiaosheng, who feels like he has seen these simr eyes somewhere. He doesnt know why he has a feeling so bizarre, a feeling of regaining something precious which has been missed once. Sure enough, he doesnt love her, does he?N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Youyou, where have you been these days? Have you been with Qin Yang all the time? Li Qiaosheng doesnt notice that there is a vor of jealousy in his tone. But to Mu Ziyou, it sounds more like a criticism. He seemingly has known clearly about her fleeing by feigning death, which led to his failure in finding her. Luckily shes followed Qin Yangs suggestion to leave this country immediately. She went to Korea for cosmetic surgery before she journeyed to Japan, Paris and Provence, etc. All those ces she once wished to go with Li Qiaosheng, in the end, were visited with the help of Brother Qin Yang. Mr. Li, it has been a long time. Since youve found out that I am still alive, lets talk about our divorce lest you wouldmit bigamy. Mu Ziyou speaks with a light-hearted expression, yet she is full of bitterness inside. Even before she decided toe, she had nned to revenge herself at the wedding by making them fall out with each other. However, the moment she saw him, her heart softened and chose to leave them together for good. Although it was a false death, she did experience death herself. Tracing back, Mu Ziyou really feels that she was too paranoid before. She has remembered that Brother Qiaosheng promised to marry her when they were still little kids. She also mentioned this to Li Wenkang, Qiaoshengs father. Thats why Li Wenkang was so persistent in realizing this dream for her, even if his son already had fallen in love with someone else. However, the bitter result from his good intention has left the three of them struggling in the turbulence of love. Mu Ziyou loved him so deeply that she was reluctant to let go of him; Li Qiaosheng had to marry her due to the pressure from his father, but had kept tormenting her ever since they got married; as for Xia Wanyan, it was clear that she fell in love with Qiaoshengter, but she acted as if Mu had taken her beloved away. Since then the two best friends fell out. Mu Ziyou realizes that all these are caused by her! Therefore, its better to sacrifice herself and help the two of them realize their dreams. In fact, after marrying her, Li Qiaosheng had always wished she could propose a divorce, which is the reason why he hurt her over and over again, trying to force her to suggest divorce by herself. However,ter owing to his parents death and Xia Wanyans matters, he just wouldnt let her get away easily. Now, he feels clearly the reluctance and unwillingness in his heart when hearing the word divorceing out from her mouth again. Youyou, could you give me some time? Im not really marrying Xia Wanyan. All the misunderstandings between us are gone now. Dont be afraid. Ill take revenge for your mothers death, OK? You? Mu Ziyou stays stunned for a moment, feeling that she almost does not know the capricious man in front of her. Soon she puts herself togetherafter all, the affection between this man and Xia Wanyan is obvious to all. He probably said so out of the fear that she would kill his sweetheart for real. Its his stalling tactics! Well, Li Qiaosheng, if you could make Xia Wanyan kneel down in front of me, kowtow to me for three times and apologize to me formally, I would let you off. Chapter 25: I Wish You a Happy Wedding Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Of course, three kowtows from Xia is far from enough topensate her mothers death. Mu Ziyou just wants to embarrass Xia and deliberately makes things difficult for Li because formerly Li Qiaosheng would think that she was making trouble out of nothing and would never let Xia Wanyan do as she required. So she makes such a suggestion. Unexpectedly, Li Qiaosheng epts it without hesitation and adds, Okay, I promise you, she would not only kowtow to you and apologize, but also go and kneel in front of your mothers grave for three days and nights! You Mu Ziyou looks in amazement at the man in front of her uttering these sincere words. She still cannot believe that such words reallye from his mouth. He must be deceiving her. He must beforting her with these nice words. He must fear that she would rush out with the knife and hurt his bride so that the wedding would then be ruined. Yes, that must be the case! So many years youth sacrificed for you won me a thank you for giving me the chance. The chance for your freedom and adventure, for my blue sea and sky. She promises you a solemn pledge of love with sweet words. I have only one in offer of chance without regret. Giving chance for your today and tomorrow, and for my next summer Just then, Mu Ziyous mobile phone rings. She quickly picks it up and takes a look at it it is Qin Yang. Li Qiaosheng catches the callers name as well. With this ringtone, he feels so terrible inside that it seems that thousands of needles are pricking at his heart. His heart hurts so much that it is difficult to describe it. Im still in the hotel. Okay, Im fine. Well, wait for me downstairs. Iming right now. Mu Ziyou doesnt bother to shun Li Qiaosheng. Ending the call in his presence, she finds he is still standing in her way. Impatiently, she pushed him aside. Mr. Li, I wish you a happy wedding. I will send you the divorce agreement by express delivery. You can send it back after you finish signing. Youyou, Im not kidding you. Since youre still alive, youre still my wife. And you will be my wife for this lifetime! Wait for me, Please. After saying that, with no other useless words, Li Qiaosheng goes back to attend the wedding ceremony for it is already the the due time for the ceremony.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. He will absolutely make Xia Wanyan pay little by little for the pain and grievance Youyou has suffered before! This is the main reason why he insisted on the wedding ceremony with Xia Wanyan. But Mu Ziyou doesnt know about the mans good intentions, nor does she take all his words seriously. She is here today for only two purposes: one is to make sure that Xia Wanyan had done something to her mothers death; the other is to divorce Li Qiaosheng. Mu Ziyous hatred for Li Qiaosheng is different from that for Xia Wanyan. When she finally calms down, she finds that she only wants to take revenge on Xia Wanyan. As for Li Qiaosheng, she just wants to give him the words: youre free. Back in the car, Qin Yang turns around and sees Mu Ziyous red-brimmed eyes. He cannot help sighing, Youve really thought it over this time and made up your mind to divorce him? Yes! Actually, I think that if you want to take revenge on Xia Wanyan, the best way is not to divorce for the time being. Ruining their marriage is the strongest blow to her. Suddenly something urs to Qin Yang. He pauses for a moment and then waves his hand, Oh, forget it. You still have some remaining affection for that fellow. Im afraid you would probably make it real! Just forget it Mu Ziyou doesnt say anything, but she does take what Qin Yang says seriously. Thats right. It isnt worthwhile at all to kill Xia Wanyan for just venting her anger, yet at the cost of herself! Not a good deal indeed! However, Xia Wanyan would not end in jail, either, if Li Qiaosheng continued pulling strings from behind even though Mu Ziyou submitted the evidence to the police. Considering this, the best approach to make Xia Wanyan pay for her deeds is to constantly show up in front of them reminding Xia Wanyan that she is not dead, and her marriage with Li Qiaosheng is still in effect, whereas Xia Wanyan herself is actually the hateful third party! This must be the most terrible torment for Xia Wanyan both physically and mentally! Chapter 26: I Didn鈥檛 Mean It Proofread by Zhou Zhijie The wedding night is supposed to be really attractive and intoxicating. But Xia Wanyan has never expected to see this scene after taking a bath anding out from the bathroom that the man is still sitting fully-dressed at the head of the bed, staring expressionlessly at the door that she has juste out of. It seems that he wants to challenge and condemn her. Brother Qiaosheng, whats the matter with you? Are are you still mad at me for the suicide of Youyous mom? In fact, I just told her about Youyou killing Auntie. Shemitted suicide just to pay for her daughters sin. Xia Wanyan mistakenly thinks that the man is still concerned about what happened in the restroom in the daytime today, so she carefully continues to defend herself, I didnt expect that Youyou would want to kill me with a knife. She shifts all the responsibilities to me. Im really falsely wronged! Take off your bathrobe. Unexpectedly, the man suddenly pops out such a totally irrelevant sentence. Instead of the me of love, Xia Wanyan just notices the coldness in Li Qiaoshengs eyes, which makes her rather upset. But she can do nothing but do as he orders. Li Qiaosheng sets his sight on her waist which is perfect with fluent waist line and snow-white skin. With a cold smile in the corner of his mouth, he says, Wanyan, havent you received the bone marrow transnt? How perfect your recovery is! There is not even a scar left! This Xia Wanyans smiling face turns into bloodless paleness! Oh, damn, she has forgotten to fake a scar at the ce where she is supposed to receive the operation. She has thought that he wouldnt notice it with her clothes on. But now theyre married, how could she continue to deceive him? Brother Qiaosheng, allow me to exin, please. I didnt mean to deceive you. I didnt really. Its all my attending doctors fault. He made a wrong diagnosis and didnt find out that I had no anemia until Youyous death. So he kept me ignorant of it by deception. Only when I was in the operation room did I get to know about the truth. He asked me not to reveal it, otherwise hell be fired by the hospital. I cant bear to destroy him, so Xia Wanyan kneels down at the mans feet in fear hurriedly, hoping to get his forgiveness by lowering her profile. If Li Qiaosheng hadnt known the truth, he might have believed that it was all the doctors fault. Anyway, Xia Wanyan is always extremely kind-hearted in his mind. You feel merciful for a stranger, then what about my donated bone marrow? You just threw it away mercilessly? You feel merciful? Then why didnt you feel merciful while drawing blood from your best friend every week? Your mercy is only prepared for strangers, not for your family and friends, huh?! Hearing the mans merciless sarcasm, Xia Wanyan knows that she was wrong in the beginning. After pondering for a while, she has no choice but to admit her fault with her head lowered. Im really sorry, Brother Qiaosheng. I have realized my fault. Really. I had intended to tell you, but I was so busy preparing for the wedding that I forgot about it. You can punish me in any way you want. Just dont leave me, please! Xia Wanyan, Im asking you how many other things you are still hiding from me, huh? The man holds her chin between his fingers and forces her to look at him directly in the eyes. Xia Wanyan feels guilty and dares not look into his bottomless eyes. She just answers awkwardly, Nothing, nothing more. Really.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. Alright, since you dont want to tell voluntarily yourself, Ill question you then. Li Qiaosheng loosens his grip and she drops to the floor. Though feeling cold, she dare not reach for her clothes. Just like amb waiting to be ughtered, Xia Wanyan trembles, while waiting for the mans final trial which is likeing out from the hell Chapter 27: Just for Marrying Me Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Lets talk about it backwards. You cheated me about the bone marrow transnt. So your astic anemia is also a lie. Then lets talk about the ident of falling off the building. At the beginning, you told me that Mu Ziyou pushed you. Do you have any evidence? This From the mans expression, Xia Wanyan can tell that he must have known the truth. But where did he get the clue? In fact, she deliberately asked Mu Ziyou to meet her on the rooftop, because she carefully checked the ce and found no surveince camera there. So no matter what happened, only she and Mu Ziyou knew the truth. Thanks to Li Qiaoshengs trust on her then, she knew that Li Qiaosheng would believe her no matter what she said and no one would listen to Mu Ziyou even if she exined. Thinking of this, Xia Wanyan feels that he is likely to be swindling her. She thinks over her words and continues, In fact, she did not push me down on purpose. At that time, I was so irritated by her words that I said, I wish you could enjoy eternal love. Since I am really a redundant person, Id better jump down from here! She just took up where I had left off, and said, Jump then. Do you need me to do you a favor? I didnt think she would really want me to jump down, so I got a little scared and wanted to get back to the safe ce. Unexpectedly, she got angry and raised her hand. I lost my bnce and fell off Oh? You can still remember it so clearly even though it happened such a long time long. Unfortunately, there is something wrong with your memory. I think you have got it messed up with some shit plots from certain TV series. Do you need me to help you recall them? The man gives several taps on his phone screen while saying these words. Xia Wanyan moves forward and sees the surveince image. Instantly all her hopes were shattered to pieces! Li Qiaosheng, however, relishes one of the details. You see, after talking eloquently for a while, it was your own choice to jump down from the rooftop. Youyou even did not stretch out her hand. Is it possible that she pushed you with her mind? Brother Qiaosheng, it was my fault and I admit it. She didnt push me. At that time, I was disheartened and didnt want to live any longer. I couldnt bear watching you two get married and she kept talking to me about your love story. I really cant stand it, so I The only relief for Xia Wanyan is that no sound in the video can be heard. But the man has lost trust in her totally because of her constant lying and does not want to listen to any of her exnations at all. Then he continues questioning, And about my mother. You have admitted that it was you who pushed her down the stairs instead of Mu Ziyou. Oh, I almost forgot one thing: In order to pay for her mothers medical bills, Mu Ziyou borrowed money from the usury, which turned out to be a naked loan. You yed the trick, didnt you? I C Sure enough, this man is unfathomable. Whatever he wants to find out will never remain concealed any more. Before giving into her destiny, Xia Wanyan struggles for thest stroke as she is used to, Brother Qiaosheng, in fact, the truth is not like what you think of. At the beginning, Youyou chose the usury, but the interest was too high. Later she heard that the interest of naked loan was lower and changed her mind. Its none of my business. I I did suggest that she choose the naked loan, but she is the one who made the final decision, isnt she? You dont think I can tell that the picture isposite?Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. Just one sentence renders Xia Wanyans face paler. She should have admitted it directly! It would be better if she had directly admitted that she envied Mu Ziyou and couldnt bear to see the affectionate happiness between her and Brother Qiaosheng. It is true that the more one talks, the more mistakes s/he will make Well, I dont want to list the rights and wrongs between you and Mu Ziyou. Whats your aim to get close to her deliberately? Just for marrying me? The man looks down at her disdainfully out of the corner of his eyes. Xia Wanyan knows that she cannot hide the truth anymore tonight, so she changes her pattern and begins to y an affectionate drama. Yes, Brother Qiaosheng. I I did all those just for such a simple purpose! Have you forgotten that you said you would marry me? Later we grew up, I identally got to know that you lived together from Mu Ziyou. Since then, I tried my best to please her and made friends with me. Then we became the best friends. I would be satisfied to get a glimpse of you from a distance when she invited me over to y at your home. Brother Qiaosheng, you belonged to me and we were in love, werent we? But at the end she became your wife, which made me so sad that I was about die because of the sadness C Then you deliberately designed the scheme of your being blocked by several men in the alley, which deliberately disturbed our wedding night. You calcted the time so that I could arrive in time to save you. Isnt it the truth? Li Qiaosheng doesnt intend this sentence as a question because his tone is extremely positive. After saying these words, he snaps his fingers. Then several poker-faced bodyguards in ck walk into the room one after another. Chapter 28: Even Though Raised in the Affluent and Influential Family Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan doesnt understand what Li Qiaosheng means until she is dragged out by the men in ck and thrown out of the vi. When she is about to plead a man to give her a coat to cover her naked body, there suddenly appear several tall and strong men behind her one of whom covers her mouth, another two strangle his hands and feet respectively. In this way her whole body is lifted up. Knowing nothing about the ce they are heading for, Xia Wanyan is freaked out on the path with no trace of other folks. Even worse, a man takes advantage of her and touches her body from time to time! The next morning, before dawn, Xia Wanyan is sent back to the vi, unconscious and naked. When Xia Wanyan wakes up, she thinks that she has had a terrible nightmare! However, when she lifts the quilt aside, seeing the shameful marks all over her body, she couldnt help screaming, AhCcontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. The man sitting downstairs enjoying his breakfast slowly curves his lips into a freezingly cold smile when he hears Xia Wanyan s screamhe knows that she is awake. It is merely the beginning. Since she is that firm in speech and keen on making others the scapegoat instead of admitting her mistakes honestly, she will then taste the bitterness of being framed and unable to speak out. For several nights, Xia Wanyan is drugged and begins suffering inhuman torture over and over again. Those men, following Li Qiaoshengs instructions, send him a video with images of her most enjoyable and dissipated moments so that he can see whether it has met his requirements. When Li Qiaosheng is satisfied with the video, they then sent it to several news agencies on a chosen day. As a result, those paparazzi are extremely excitedthe men in the video either present a profile of their faces or are too blurred to distinguish, whereas the woman lying in bed enjoying contributes several wonderful close-ups! They all see it very clearly that she is the newly married wife of Li Qiaosheng, President of Shengshi Group, and the beloved daughter of the Xias Group, Xia Wanyan. This video clip shows not only Xia Wanyan in bed, but also hering in and out of the hotel, in the arms of these men and walking like a slut who is drunk and enjoys thepany of men. Xia Zhiguo can hardly believe that his daughter can behave like this. At this point, therees the voice of his wife aside, Huh, shes indeed the daughter of her bitch mother. Even though raised up in the affluent and influential family, she just cant change the shameless nature! Shut up! After all, Xia Zhiguo loves his daughter so much. He makes a call to his son-inw then. Qiaosheng, dont be misled by these messy gossip reports and misunderstand Wanyan. How can she be such a person? The woman in the video is definitely not her! I can swear that the woman in that video is not her! She is with you every night, isnt she? He then thinks of his other twin daughter. It is possible that she is back in China and was caught in the video, yet was mistaken as Xia Wanyan. Im sorry, President Xia. Ive been working overtime in thepany these days. Even our honeymoon n was postponed for this, wasnt it? As for what your daughter was doing every night, Im not that sure whether the person in that video is her or not. Well, actually, she has admitted it herself. What?! Xia Zhiguo lost the trace of his words already. Wanyan has admitted it? Isnt Qiaosheng the love of her life? How could she have done such disgraceful things right after their wedding?! What the hell is going on?! Chapter 29: What Nonsense Are You Talking About?! Proofread by Zhou Zhijie At Xias home. Xia Wanyan is called to go back home and exin the matter to her father. But Xia Wanyan does not know how to start the exnation at all! Could she just tell the truth that Qiaosheng has found out what bad deeds she had done and he hired someone to revenge on her? She is afraid that her father wont believe it. Whats worse, her father even doesnt know anything else except for her pretended illness and setting Mu Ziyou in naked loan crisis. So Xia Wanyan cant imagine how her father would treat her if he gets to know about those disgusting things. Its so miserable that people cant exin the bitterness they have experienced. Until now, Xia Wanyanes to realize the misery and bitterness Mu Ziyou has gone through then. But what could she do? What happened before can not be changed. She has no way out now. Seeing this, Mrs. Xia is too stimted by the incident to control her mouth and blurts out, Well, Zhiguo, you can tell from her facial expression that what happened in the video is true! Do you still not believe me? Like mother, like daughter! What do you mean, mummy? Xia Wanyan is stunned, for the first time she feels that her mother has changed totally into another person. No, its more urate to say that ever since she fell in love with Qiaosheng and vowed to marry him, her mother has been constantly sneering at her. Isnt she her biological mother? Xia Zhiguo suddenly shouts to stop his wife, Enough! What nonsense are you talking about?! Its none of your business. Its just something between my daughter and me! As a result, these words make Mrs. Xia more stimted. Before she turns and runs upstairs, she leaves some words angrily, Fine, only you and your daughter are close! I am nothing but a nanny who has done a lot but no one appreciates that!N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Daddy, what happened to mummy? Xia Wanyan is bewildered by the conversation, feeling as if her parents were trying to hide something from her. Xia Zhiguo originally intended not to let his daughter know about her birth story. But now, the exposed video affects not only his daughters own reputation, but also that of the Xias Group! He has no choice but to tell her in a solemn voice, Wanyan, what Im going to tell you next is extremely important. You have to be fully psychologically prepared for it. If you cant, Ill make it short. OK Xia Wanyan has expected that the worst situation might be that Mrs. Xia is not her biological mother and she might be an illegitimate daughter of her father. But unexpectedly, her biological mother has that kind of identity, who had the same upation as Mu Ziyous mother. Besides, she has a twin sister in this world! It is more of a bolt from the blue than a little shock. So Wanyan, listen to me. You can exin to Qiaosheng that the woman in the video is not you, but your twin sister! She lives with her mother who is a barmaid and must have be a barmaid herself. She are more likely to be videoed. Xia Wanyan finallyes back to herself and moves his lips to say something. She finally epts her fathers arrangement. But there is still one point on her mind, But daddy, so many years have passed, what if she is already dead? If you couldnt find her, wouldnt it be more embarrassing? If I couldnt find her, I would just find someone to substitute her. In a word, Wanyan, be sure not to admit that the woman in the video is you! Daddy will take care of the rest, okay? Seeing her father so insistent and determined, she stops babbling. But as soon as she thinks that her biological mother is also that kind of person, Xia Wanyan has made up her mind that she will absolutely deny it if the woman dares toe and im her as her daughter! Chapter 30: I鈥檝e Already Got Little Pudding Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan justifiably exins in front of the media that the woman in the video is not her, but her twin sister. But in front of Li Qiaosheng, she knows that it is a trap he has carefully set for her so she has no choice but to exin why she excuses herself in this way to the reporters with her head down. However, in the mans eyes, whatever she says is just in vain because he has viewed her as a better liar, who can even make up the story about a twin sister! In that sense, he is beaten by her. When Mu Ziyou sees the press conference held by Xia Wanyan, she is also slightly preupied. Qin Yang justes out of the bedroom after putting the baby to bed. Seeing her in such a state, he mistakenly thinking Mu Ziyou is still thinking of Xia Wanyans killing her mother. Hees forward andforts her, Xiaoyou, fire cannot be wrapped up in paper. Those who do vicious things will surely get dueeuppance in the end. Yeah, I know. I just heard her making up the twin story. I also remember my mom once mentioned to me that I had a younger twin sister, too. Really? This is the first time that Qin Yang has heard about this kind of thing from Mu Ziyou. In Japan, Mu Ziyous motherter married a Japanese man and Qin Yang is the son of this mans brother. He thought he would have one more cousin, butter it turned out that they had no blood rtionship because Mu Ziyous mother was already pregnant before she married his uncle. Mu Ziyou recalls a lot of things and continues to tell Qin Yang, In fact, my mother was pregnant with a pair of twin girls. Unfortunately, the younger one was born dead. Otherwise, Id have a twin sister who looks like me. Seeing her emotions get down again from yearning, Qin Yang could not help but embrace her into his arms and gentlyforts her, Although Aunt has left this world, you still have me and Pudding, dont you? Youre not alone. If you are willing, I canCcontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Thinking of Pudding, the newborn baby, Mu Ziyou naturally thinks of Li Qiaosheng. Yes, he is the father of the baby, who survived the operation just as tenaciously as she did! Therefore, she firmly interrupts what Qin Yang wants to say, No, Brother Qin Yang, you are my brother. You will eventually marry a girl who definitely cant be me. As for me, Ive already got little Pudding. Dont worry. I will live on happily for him. Well, that will be good. Seeing that she still refuses to ept him, Qin Yang can just give up. At least for now, its nice that they can still live together as a family of three. When Li Qiaosheng finally finds out Mu Ziyous residence and excitedly drives to the gate of themunity, he happens to run into such a scene: She and Qin Yang are walking slowly with a pram. The baby in the pram seems to have fallen asleep and has not heard why the grown-ups areughing so happily In Li Qiaoshengs memory, he seems to have not seen Mu Ziyou smiling so brightly for a long time, but the man called Qin Yang easily appreciates her radiant smile. He feels rather hurt. And what makes him even unable to stay calm is the baby. Have they already got married and had their baby within thest half a year when they havent seen each other? Oh, no wonder she forced him to sign the divorce contract! It was just because of him! The moment the man turns the steering wheel and is about to leave, Qin Yang first spots him and calls to him. Then, following Qin Yangs eyes, Mu Ziyou also notices Li Qiaosheng. Come on, Pudding, call Uncle. Qin Yang deliberately picks up the baby who just wakes up and puts extra stress on the word Uncle. Li Qiaosheng secretly balls his fist, but he is finally defeated by the lovely baby and cant help stretching out his hand to tease the baby while asking Mu Ziyou unwillingly, Is this your baby? Yeah! She admits without hesitation. After all, she wouldnt forget how the man suspected that this baby wasnt his, and tried to make her have the abortion! The mans heart is desperately hurt at that moment, which finally turns into a bitter smile only. He then reminds her, Since you are still alive, dont forget that we are still husband and wife byw. Come back. As long as he is your baby, I can treat him as my own. Chapter 31: I Just Can鈥檛 Let It Be Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Li Qiaosheng keeps a low profile to an unprecedented degree. He is even prepared for the womans refusal. Surprisingly, Mu Ziyou simply answers, Okay, no problem. Xiaoyou! You Hearing her response, Qin Ynag is shocked into speechlessness. Then, Mu Ziyou turns to him with a smile and exins, Brother Qin Yang, you told me that the best way to revenge Xia Wanyan is to let her experience the betrayal of her love, didnt you? Huh, I think it makes sense! She says it to Qin Yang and Li Qiaosheng as well. But, arent you afraid Qin Yang subconsciously takes a look at little Pudding in his arms. Now that our baby has been born, what else could I be afraid of? Ill be right back when its over. Take good care of Pudding these days, please! The man standing aside keeps staring meaningfully at Mu Ziyous profile. He could not figure out what on earth she is up to in a while. But Qin Yang understands her intention instantly through eye contact. What follows is the unspeakable bitterness from his heartpitying her. This girl is pushing herself to a blind alley she intends to deepen the hate from Li Qiaosheng while retaliating against Xia Wanyan. She wants Li Qiangsheng to hate her for attacking his present wife with her identity and her intention to form a new family with her new beau once no more advantage could be taken of On the way back, Li Qiaosheng finally couldnt help asking the little woman beside him, Didnt you formerly say that you will leave us together for good? Howe you suddenly changed your mind today? Huh, I wanted to leave you together for good because I hadnt got to know the truth that my mom was forced tomit suicide by Xia Wanyan! Now I know about the truth. Sure enough, by no means could I let my mother die in vain. So Im sorry. I just cant let it be. Mr. Li, hope that it wont bother you since Ill be interrupting the life of you and your wife from time to time in the following days. Of course not. Youre very wee. The man couldnt stop lifting the corners of his mouth. As luck would have it, he can take advantage of her tricks naturally. This time, it is Mu Ziyou who bes astonished. Normally, he should be outraged and hate her more deeply. Why is he so indulgent? Ah-ha, is it because Ive seen the news recently. Mr. Li does not believe Xia Wanyans exnation at the press conference? So Mr. Li wants me to go back with him in this circumstance in order to upset Xia Wanyan and win her loyalty back? Li Qiaosheng is apparently dissatisfied with the way she addresses him as Mr. Li. Youyou, Im still your husband. Do we have to be so distant to each other? Speaking of me and Xia Wanyan, we didnt get the marriage license. What Im doing now, including the appearance of Xia Wanyan in the headlines, is all nned by me, aiming to help you revenge. Could you understand my intention? They didnt get the marriage license? It is part of his n to get Xia Wanyan so badly exposed? Seriously? Werent they loving each other so deeply before her feign death?Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. When the car pulls up outside the gate of the vi, she follows Li Qiaosheng into the vi. Mu Ziyou is even more astonished when she notices that everything is exactly the same as it was when she lived there before. Xia Wanyan doesnt show up at all Shes in another vi. This is our marital home, where for sure she is not allowed to live. Seeming to have noticed her doubt, Li Qiaosheng exins without much emotion. Mu Ziyous heart is no longer peaceful, yet she shows no sign of it in the face. She lifts the corner of her mouth slightly instead, So you mean to keep a mistress in your house? Chapter 32: He Even Declared That He Will Marry No One but Her Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Li Qiaosheng turns back and sits down in the sofa, folding his long legs with a look of satisfaction and a flirtatious look in his eyes. If you miss me, I can stay here each night. Trying hard to be calm, Mu Ziyou takes a lot of efforts to send him off. She breathes a sigh of relief when she finally closes the door. Anything wrong with him? Now she is taking advantage of this man to revenge on Xia Wanyan. Why does she have an illusion of being flirted instead? When she tells this series of strange things to Qin Yang on the phone, he remains silent for quite a while before he suddenly asks her, Xiaoyou, you will not forgive him for what he did to you before just because he treats you kindly now, will you? Of course not. But the tone of Mu Ziyou at the moment is obviously not as firm as before. Besides she hesitates for a second before she answers his question. Qin Yang is aware of something, but he does not dispute with her too much about this problem. Before hanging up, he just says, OK, Pudding and I are waiting for you toe back home as soon as possible. Thinking of Pudding her adorable baby, Mu Ziyou bes more determined. She can tolerate the hurt in her rtionship with Li Qiaosheng, but absolutely wont allow her baby to be hurt in the same way! She and Li Qiaosheng live in this newly decorated house since their marriage, which in fact is the ce where the Li family have been living all these years. The living area is ample and there exist many memories here. Mu Ziyou was sent to this home at the age of ten. At that time, she didnt know that her mother had contracted that kind of disease, which was the reason why she entrusted Qiaoshengs father to take care of Mu Ziyou. Qiaosheng is six years older than she is. But he has never got to know that she is actually the little girl he met in that Japanese earthquake. Mu Ziyou recognized him at the first sight. On the contrary, Li Qiaosheng didnt recognize her probably because the girl changed dramatically when she grew up. Due to this, she hasnt had the courage to share this memory with Li Qiaosheng which has been buried deeply in the bottom of her heart together with her love for him . Until Qiaoshengs father found out Mus love for Qiaosheng, she couldnt hide it any longer and finally told his father how deeply she loved Qiaosheng frankly. She was sixteen at that time. Qiaoshengs father was very optimistic about her and Qiaoshengs rtionship and promised to let his son marry her at the age of 18. However, just in these two years, no one could expect that so many changes have taken ce. Xia Wanyan knew clearly how much Mu Ziyou loved Qiaosheng, yet she still fell in love with him at first sight. More painfully, Qiaosheng even dered that he would marry no one but Xia Wanyan! He also said that he had always viewed her as a sister lodging at his home, with no feelings of affection at all. Fortunately, Uncle Li does not like Xia Wanyan, who is so effeminate and always beats around the bush while talking. He insists that Mu Ziyou be his daughter-inw. Although he is the head of the family, her marriage to Qiaosheng is opposed by both Qiaosheng himself and his mother. Because of it, the atmosphere at home for a long time remains very unpleasant to such a degree that she is almost about to give up. But Uncle Li is very determined and luckily he married her to Qiaosheng as she wished. But neither he nor she knows that this is the real beginning of her painful life Is that Wanyan? This is Mu Ziyou. Sorry to bother you, but I have to because Qiaosheng refuses to sign the divorce agreement and traps me in his vi now. Can you give me some help?N?velDrama.Org (C) content. What do you mean? Qiaosheng has Xia Wanyan is really so irritated that she almost jumps up from her seat. She answers with no hesitation, Iming over right now! While hanging up the phone, Mu Ziyou curves up her lips slightly. Then she dials Li Qiaoshengs number, Mr. Li, what about having a date tonight? Chapter 33: All the Efforts These Years Will End in Nothing Then?! Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Mu Ziyou is still preparing the dinner unhurriedly in the kitchen when Xia Wanyan arrives in a hurry. It reminds Mu of the days when she learned all the cooking techniques from the cook to please Li Qiaosheng. While tonight, all of the dishes she prepares will end only in her stomach, not theirs. Mu Ziyou! Just a moment. Qiaosheng asked me to prepare dinner for him and he wille over directly after work. Theres onest course to cook! Talk to me until Im finished. Mu Ziyou notices her aggressiveness she must have a lot to say, but she wouldnt be given the chance to say them out . Deliberately she takes time to wash and cut up the vegetables, then stir-fry it. When the living room is filled with the aroma of food, Mu Ziyoues to Xia Wanyan, who is about to explode in fury, and says unhurriedly, Do you want to join us tonight? Oh, no. These courses may not be enough. Id better prepare some more. Stop, Mu Ziyou! Xia Wanyan steps forward and grabs her she has an inexplicable feeling that her former best friend seems to have changed into another person who is hard to recognize.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. However, Mu Ziyou also pretends to look at her doubtfully and then asks with an innocent face, Whats up? Dont youe here for dinner? Or For the video taken in the hotel? Qiaosheng hasnt yet forgiven you? Well, you cant me him for that. I remember that Qiaosheng hates being cheated and betrayed the most. It seems that you are in big trouble this time Xia knows that Mu said so to provoke her, but there is no doubt that her Achilles heel has been hit by Mu. Shes really afraid now. Since Qiaosheng has learned that Mu is still alive and has figured out all the bad things she has done to Youyou as well, it is probable that he might desert her and go back to Mu. All the efforts these years will end in nothing then? Xia Wanyan will absolutely not live with Qiaoshengs leaving her like this. After some deliberation, she kneels down in front of Mu Ziyou. But before her sympathy-winning trick is fulfilled, Mu Ziyou also kneels down immediately opposite her and takes the lead by saying tearfully, You really wronged me. It is Qiaosheng who doesnt let me go. Im not the one ying the trick. Wanyan, dont push me, please. See, you are already married. What else can I do? At the same time, Li Qiaoshenges into the room. Well, Xia Wanyan is paying for her price: In the past, it was she who framed Mu Ziyou up in front of this man with the perfect timing each time. Now, she herself bes the one to be framed up! Xia Wanyan is driven so mad that she almost spits blood! What are you Seeing the two women kneeling down face to face, Li Qiaosheng cant figure out what tricks they are ying. Interestingly, Mu Ziyou has learned the essence of Xias tricks and even made an upgrading. She is sure that Li has heard what she said before. Then, instead of snivelling in front of the man, she wipes her tears and stands up, saying, Its OK, Mr. Li. Your wife just came over to have a little chat with me. The dishes are getting cold. You two get seated first, please. Ill go to heat them up. Theres no need. Li Qiaoshenges to Xia Wanyan in a stride and drags her up from the floor. He then drags her all the way to the door and throws her out! Xia Wanyans wailing outside could be heard vaguely. Darling Qiaosheng, let me exin, please! Its not like what you think! Please open the door! I am your wife now. How could you treat me like this?! Lets have dinner. The man ignores her cryingpletely and puts the music on to cover the annoying noise and talks to to Mu calmly. Mu Ziyou sits down quietly, yet shocked inside Has this man suddenly changed so dramatically, or is he nning some schemes for me? Chapter 34: He Still Remembers! Proofread by Zhou Zhijie The man didnte out of the vi all night, and Xia Wanyan stays determined right outside the door the entire night. Li Qiaosheng doesnt open the door and walk out until the sun is already high up in the sky the next morning. Darling Qiaosheng, can we talk about it in a calm and friendly way? Im Im totally fine if Youyou wants to live here as long as you dont leave me. Is that OK? You Xia Wanyan has thought it over all night, and swallowed her pride totally. However, Li ignores her pleading directly and says aloud to the one inside, Take your time, Youyou. Ill get the car first. Where are you going? Finally, its Mu Ziyou, well dressed, who answers her question. Well, its Saturday and Qiaosheng wants to hang out with me. Noticing Xia Wanyan in such a mess, Mu catches the figure of herself in the old days through her profile. Do you want toe with us? Su sure! Xia Wanyan never thought that there would be such a moment that she would be so shameless herself. But she cannot afford to watch her man and Mu Ziyou go out on a date like this! She hurries to jam herself into the the back seat right after Mu takes the passenger seat. Fortunately, Qiaosheng doesnt mean to drive her out of the car. Xia feels a little relieved before she notices her unkempt appearance. Hastily, she takes out the mirror and wet tissue from her bag and solves this problem with nobodys notice in the car. It is thergest amusement park in the city that Li Qiaosheng brings Mu Ziyou to today. This is also the ce where she once yearned toe most. As she gets older, she bes too reserved to make such requests. But Qiaoshengs father drove her over here for fun several times. Nevertheless, it is Qiaosheng whom she looks forward to hanging out with in this park. She got obsessed with amusement parks from her experience with her mother in Japan where they couldnt afford to go to amusement parks like this. To her surprise, her old dreamhe still remembers! When the car pulls up outside the entrance, Mu Ziyou doesnt get off immediately. Instead, she just looks at everything, so familiar yet so different. She remembers the day of the ident. After Li Qiaoshengs father took her to see her mother in the hospital, he drove her to this park. Since she was told by the doctor that her mother was getting better, she had a lot of fun there until they got a call from Qiaoshengs mom who urged them back for dinner. Qiaoshengs father then picked up speed on the way back. At an intersection, the second the green lights turned red, instead of stopping he chose to take the chance! When misfortune urred, she was totally at loss. It was Qiaoshengs father who risked his life and shielded her with his own body! For a long time since then, she did not dare to get close to this park. In the deep of her heart, she thought that she should be the one responsible for the ident! If she hadnt got so absorbed in games and lost track of time, Uncle Li wouldnt have to rush and they would be able to arrive home before Qiaosheng did for dinner as usual. Why dont you get off? Li Qiaosheng notices Mus unusual act and asks with concern. Mu then gets her thoughts back to reality. Dropping her gaze to cover the sense of guilt, she opens the door with a calm face, Nothing. You go and line up for the tickets. Wanyan and I shall wait for you at the entrance, OK?Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. The moment the man is out of earshot, Xia Wanyanes to her side. In a rancorous tone she fires, Youyou, what on earth do you want? You should ask your Qiaosheng for this instead. On the one hand, he refuses to divorce me, and one the other he goes on messing up with you. I also want to know what on earth he wants While saying so, she nces at the mans distant figure with mixed feelings. She doesnt believe that this man cant figure it out that she just did so deliberately to revenge on Xia Wanyan! Chapter 35: She Is No Other than Your Best Friend Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Mu Ziyou remembers that before Xia Wanyan and Li Qiaosheng fell in love, Xia always walked behind them while Qiaosheng and she walked in front side by side. Later, after her engagement to Qiaosheng, it turned out that Xia Wanyan and Li Qiaosheng got closer and closer, and she was unwittingly left behind by them. No one could expect that their rtionship could change back to the original situation. Mu Ziyou is actually a lively girl, different from Xia Wanyan who has much burden of being a fairdy. However, in order to please Qiaosheng, she had gradually grown more and more cautious in front of him. She even mistakenly thought that Qiaosheng liked such type ofdy as Xia Wanyan and secretly imitated her best friends behavior and posture many times. Now she just wants to be herself so when she sees the megadrop or a roller coaster and something like that, she cries out with excitement and cant wait to have a ride. She does so even with an intention of revenge. She thinks that the man wouldnt have the courage to y these recreation facilities or really have a ride with her. But Li Qiaosheng knows Xia Wanyan absolutely dare not y together with them so they can leave her alone for a while. Therefore, without hesitation, Li joins the queue with Mu Ziyou. Xia Wanyan can do nothing but wait for them on the ground, looking at Mus dazzling and showy smiling face and Qiaosheng darlings pampering expression while looking at Mu. How can this happen? Even if he has got to know all the frame-up she has done to Mu Ziyou, its natural for him to hate her. But why has Qiaoshengs attitude to Mu Ziyou changed so dramatically? He still thinks that she, Xia Wanyan, is the little girl in the earthquake, doesnt he? Xia doesnt take her thoughts back until the phone in her hand rings. She looks down and checks it. It is from her father. Hello, dad. Whats up? Wanyan, is the name of your dead best friend whom you mentioned before Youyou? Whats her full name? And whats her mothers name? Is her surname Mu? Xia Zhiguo asks in a hurry on the other end. Xia Wanyan frowns unconsciously, with a kind of bad foreboding, Well, yeah. Her name is Mu Ziyou, and her mother, Mu Qing. Whats the matter? Its really her, Xia Zhiguo mutters, in a somewhat grave tone, Listen to me, Wanyan. I have finally found out the whereabouts of your twin sister. She is no none than your best friend, Mu Ziyou.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org. Impossible! She absolutely doesnt look like me at all! Xia Wanyan cant help refuting his father loudly. But she subconsciously recalls the scenes when she and Mu Ziyou met for the first time and became the best friends so naturally. It was indeed extremely easy for them to get along. After getting along with Mu Ziyou, she findster that they two have so manymon interests, and even to the end they fell in love with the same man. Not to mention the tacit understanding and the empathy between them once one frowns, the other will get to know what she is thinking about. And Xia Wanyan often made full use of this then to block Mu in a speechless way in front of Qiaosheng darling, thus she sessfully separated them who were actually in a good rtionship before. Xia Zhiguo sighs. Yes, just because of this, I have never doubted the identity of your best friend. But your mother Shes not my mother! Fine, fine. She is Mu Ziyous mother. She gave birth to a pair of fraternal twins, so you two dont resemble each other. But your eyebrows and eyes are very simr, right? You are more like me, but Mu Ziyou resembles more of her mother Wanyan, Wanyan? Are you still listening? Xia Zhiguo calls his daughter repeatedly when he feels that his daughter on the other end seems a little abnormal. But Xia Wanyan cant hear anything with her mind so confused now If Mu Ziyou is her twin sister, then Mu Qing is her mother, so she she made her own mothermit suicide, didnt she? No, how could that woman be her mother? Her mother should be a fairdy from a prosperous family and her father is the chairman of the board of directors of the group. She is a pure fairdy from a wealthy family! If Mu Ziyou is her twin sister, what about the scandal video? Where to find someone who looks exactly like herself? Its impossible in a short time! If she cant find a person looking like herself, Qiaosheng must be waiting tough at her. What should she do? What else could she do? Chapter 36: It Is True Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan? Hey! Mu Ziyou passes one of the two marshmallows in her hands to Xia Wanyan. But Xia ps the marshmallow to the ground. ring at her best friend who has pretended to be dead before, she suddenly bursts out intoughter, Haha, you are my twin sister. How could you be my sister? Then, Xia Wanyan seems to have gone crazy, turning to run away in the opposite direction. On hearing this, Li Qiaosheng unconsciously frowns slightly, feeling somewhat confused about Xias words. Twin sisters? What makes them look like twins? At the same time, this is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Mu Ziyou!Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. The truth that she has a twin sister is only told to her by her mother, and she mentioned it to nobody except for Qin Yang. Then, how can Xia Wanyan know about this? And why does she even im that she is her twin sister? What are you going to do? When the man sees her turning to leave, he quickly grasps her by the arm. Mu does not have time to exin to him. She leaves in a hurry with only one sentence, I need to find her and make it clear! Because of her abnormal appearance, Li follows closely behind Mu. At the same time he calls his assistant and orders, Go check Xia Wanyans twin sister immediately! Right now! However, Mu Ziyou is still one step slower. The yground is crowded with so many people at the weekend that Xias figure disappears out of her sight in a blink of an eye. Then, Mu hurriedly takes out her mobile phone to call Xia. She doesnt answer. In the end, she even turns off the phone! Failing to find Xia to make it clear immediately, Mu finally sits on an empty chair with a depressed face, gawking at the empty air Can Xia Wanyan, the proud superior fairdy of Xias Group, be her twin sister? No wonder they both have the Rh-negative blood! But why dont they look a little alike? It seems that in many ways they do share the same interests and hobbies, and even have a magical connection because they think alike most of the time. However, it is also possible for best friends to have such effects after getting along with each other for a long time. But why does she faintly feel that it is true? Xia Wanyan, if you are my sister, then my biological father will be No, how could she be her younger sister? Mom was driven to death by her! She drove her own mother tomit suicide then? Mu Ziyous brain gets more chaotic at this moment. Finally she can only lower her head painfully and bury it totally in her arms. She wants to cry, but she is unable to, withplex feelings building up inside. How can God y such a big joke on them? Li Qiaosheng finds Mu a littleter. Looking at her empty eyes, with her eyebrows knotted tightly together, he cant help feeling more distressed for her. Youyou, what happened? Would you like to tell me about it? The man half kneels in front of her and holds her tightly in his arms. Mu Ziyou now ispletely immersing in her own world, neither pushing him away nor responding to him. Seeing that she doesnt want to say anything, Li doesnt say much, either. Looking at her quietly, he is afraid that she will do something extreme in despair. Xia Wanyan actually didnt run far away. She just didnt know how to face her twin sister suddenly transformed from her best friend and rival in love! After she calms down finally and turns back to look for Mu, hoping to have an in-depth chat with her, she sees them two embracing together in the distance, the scene of which is extremely harmonious! No, Qiaosheng darling is hers. Since Mu Ziyou is the elder sister, she should give the precedence to her younger sister, shouldnt she? Xia is so jealous that she is about to go crazy. But when she is going toe forward, her phone rings again. Its her father who asks her to go back home immediately for he has a really important business to discuss with her. Chapter 37: He Pampers Her and Gives Her All of His Love Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie Dad, what are you talking about?! You want me to win peoples forgiveness by ying the fool?! Xia Wanyan is far from the image of a fairdy now, instead she is shouting just like a shrew. With his eyebrows knitted, Xia Zhiguo sighs, I know that youd been wronged, but you know, Youyou is dead. In this case, I need time to find a substitute for you. But the fact is that the shares of our Group are falling dramatically because of your scandal video and those topics triggered by it still remain in the headlines. Its time to stop these all, do you understand? Youyou and I dont have anything inmon in appearance! Even if shes alive, she couldnt be my substitute, could she? Xia Wanyan utters a coldughter. No, youre wrong. I have seen the picture of that child. Her side face and some of her momentary expressions just look like yours at some point. All the problems could be solved easily as long as we can prove that you two are biological sisters. Well What a pity! Hearing this, Xia Wanyan finds it even funnier. Oh, dad, will you believe me if I tell you that Mu Ziyou is not dead, and the whole event about the video is schemed by Qiaosheng to frame me up? What? Is it true?! Xia Zhiguo is showered by excitement the second he hears that Mu Ziyou is still alive. The next second, however, he almost gets choked by his own breath on hearing Qiaoshengs scheme! Well, its a long story. In short, Qiaosheng was mad at me when he found out that I framed Mu Ziyou up for all those deeds. He did so just to retaliate against me. Actually you can get anyone but Mu Ziyou to be my substitute, or the rtionship between Qiaosheng and me will really be over!Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org. So you mean, he made you enter the hotel with so many men? Xia Zhiguo still cant believe what he has heard. Xia Wanyan takes a deep breath and nods with a grave face. And you Dad, I feel that Qiaosheng has changed! He used to hate Mu Ziyou, but now, I be the one Xia Wanyans eyes are filled up with tears instantly she does feel sorry for herself. Particrly, Mu Ziyou is still alive, which means they are still legal husband and wife. So dad, you cant do that. Qiaosheng darling is mine. I can never let Mu Ziyou appear before the public, otherwise, what can I do to keep him? Well, then, we can only deal with it in the way I suggested. Listen, under the pressure of the public opinion triggered by that event, you end up with psychosis. Then I can get enough time to find a suitable substitute for you. Maybe, this event could also y down gradually. Xia Zhiguo says with graveness. Knowing that Mu Ziyou is still alive, to be honest, he feels some subtle changes have taken ce in his state of mind. Before this, thanks to the identity of his only daughter, he pampers her and gives her all of his love. But now, he knows that Mu Ziyou is also his blood, who has lost her mother. Considering Wanyans notorious reputation,paratively speaking, Youyou bes more lovable. Xia Wanyan is stunned by her fathers words. But dad, if I went mad, it would be more impossible for Qiaosheng and me to be together!? Listen, Wanyan, since Mu Ziyou is still alive, you cant be with Qiaosheng anyway once the reporters spot her, unless Qiaosheng is willing to divorce Mu Ziyou publicly. Since he can be so hardhearted to you, I dont think Xia Zhiguo doesnt finish it. Xia Wanyan, however, breaks intoughter with her seemingly insane expression. Well, I see. Dad, ha ha, do you think Im of no use now? Mu Ziyou has be your new favorite, hasnt she? Once the lost daughter is regained, I, the one growing up with you, bes worthless immediately. Am I right?! Ha ha ha Calm down, Wanyan. Unless you can ask Qiaosheng to admit that hes schemed all these, there is no other way out at this moment! Dont you know my Group is about to go bankrupt due to your scandal?! Can you be more sensible?! Xia Zhiguo shows a little impatience unconsciously. Ha ha. I am not sensible? Yeah! Finally! You find it out! Dad, go to love Mu Ziyou! Im of no use to you. Then Id better die to make it up for you! With these resentful words, Xia Wanyan turns and runs out of the house. Chapter 38: Your Mother鈥檚 Suicide Proofread by Zhou Zhijie Xia Wanyan has nevere back home since she left. Neither has she appeared in front of Mu Ziyou and Li Qiaosheng. Li has gradually figured out the whole thing ording to the information sent him by his assistant. But he dares not mention this to Mu because he has no idea of the true thoughts in her mind. Mu is still waiting for Xia Wanyan so that she will be able to figure out the whole thing. However, instead of the appearance of Xia Wanyan, she receives a call from Xia Zhiguo first. Hello, who is that speaking? Seeing the strange number, Mu Ziyou has instinctively nned not to answer. But she finally has to answer it because of its persistent caller. Unexpectedly, its Xia Wanyans father. Youyou, Im Wanyans father and Im also your biological father. I got the news that youre still alive. Can I see you once again? OK, but I dont want anyone else to see me. Anyway, ording to other peoples knowledge, Mu Ziyou is already a dead person. So the meeting ce is set at her home instead of somewhere outside. More precisely, its at the residence where Mu Ziyou lives at present. When Xia Zhiguo learns that his daughter, Mu Ziyou is living in the traditional residence of Lis family, the vi, he immediately feels Li Qiaoshengs special treatment to her. He has thought that Qiaosheng hasnt known that his ex-wife is still alive and he has intended to find a way to help Wanyan to eliminate some pressure from the public opinions. But now, it is clear that Li Qiaosheng knows all that has happened and he must still love Mu Ziyou! Youyou, I didnt expect that you have been living within my reach. Ive heard about your mothers suicide. Well, if Id known she was your mother, we could have seen each other once again Xia Zhiguo actually doesnt have any special feelings for Mu Qing. He just slept with her under the effect of alcohol without much consideration. But he feels extremely sorry when he learns that Mu Qing was infected with HIV. Otherwise, the life of Mu Qing and her daughter wouldnt have been so miserable. Xia Zhiguo did leave her his contact information and a bank card forpensation when he took Xia Wanyan away. However, Mu Qing has a strong personality and has never contacted him. As a result, Xia Zhiguo nearly forgot the existence of Mu Qing and the other daughter until the video scandal of Xia Wanyan. Mr. Xia, you dont need to me yourself. The reason why I agreed to see you is not to get acquainted with you, but to find out the truth of those years. My mom told me that my twin sister died immediately after she was born, so what on earth has happened? Mu Ziyou doesnt expect that Mr. Xia, Chairman of the Xia Group, will have any special feelings for her mother at all, so she also gets to the point directly.Original from N?velDrama.Org. I actually stole away your sister, who is Wanyan now. And I tricked your mother with a dead baby Xia Zhiguo doesnt hide the truth any more and slowly tells Mu all that she wants to know. It turns out that she and Xia Wanyan are fraternal twins! God must be kidding. Her mother is forced tomit suicide by her own daughter Mu Ziyou sighs and exims a lot. Then she thinks of Xia Wanyan who hasnt shown up for many days. So she asks Xia Zhiguo, By the way, Mr. Xia, has Wanyan gone back home? It seems that she has never turned up since she got to know the truth. I thought she has gone back to Qiaosheng, hasnt she? Where has she gone on earth? While saying this, Xia Zhiguo suddenly remembers what she said before she left home and his face turned pale, Oh, my god, if she cant get over it, isnt she going to? The mobile phone on the tea table suddenly rings loudly, which startles both of them. Mu Ziyou picks it up and sees Qin Yangs number. Whats up? Something terrible happened, Xiaoyou. Ive been working overtime these days and asked an acquainted nanny to take care of Pudding. But little Pudding disappeared together with the stroller when they went out for a walk today! Chapter 39: Could You Please Help Me Proofread by Zhou Zhijie What does Pudding disappeared mean?! Mu Ziyou doesnt have time to chat with Xia Zhiguo any more. After seeing him off, she changes her clothes and takes a taxi heading straight to Qin Yangs residence which was hers, too. Puddings nanny told Mu Ziyou that she took little Pudding in his stroller to the park for some fresh air. There were some other mothers with their babies bathing in the sunshine, so she came forward and chatted with them. When a womans five-year-old daughter adored Pudding so much that she requested to have fun with him nearby, she agreed. Unexpectedly, after the little girl came back with some flowers for Pudding, the baby together with the stroller had disappeared! Thinking of the many baby traffickers these years, the nanny deems simply that Pudding was taken away by such people. She mes herself for Puddings missing and is about to kneel down for Mu Ziyous forgiveness. Mu Ziyou is clear that she isnt the only one to me for this. The most important thing for now is to locate Puddings whereabouts. Qin Yang had wasted no time in calling the police. Mu Ziyou cant just sit at home waiting, so she hurries to the ce where the ident happened, trying to check the surveince or inquiring passersby about the witness of her baby. However, mothers with children were so many in this park that no one noticed anything abnormal. Mu Ziyou busies herself in the park for half a day, but not a single clue is found out. In the surrounding areas where Puddingst appeared, she finds no surveince cameras at all Mu Ziyou feels like that half of the sky had copsed! Whats the point of her living in this world without Pudding? When Mu Ziyou doesnt know what to do, her phone rings again. Without looking at the number on the phone, she picks it up and asks subconsciously, Hows it going? Any news about Puddings whereabouts? Pudding Whats wrong? Therees Li Qiaoshengs deep and maic voice, with a sense of concern. On hearing his voice, Mu Ziyou seems to have clutched thest straw. Qiaosheng, I know you know a lot of people. Pudding is missing! Hes probably been taken away by the human traffickers! Could you please help me help me find him. Please! She sshes out in such a hurry that she has totally forgotten how alienated they has been before. OK. Dont worry. Tell me all of the details. I will help you. Hearing that Pudding is missing, Li Qiaosheng feels a harsh pain from inside, as if his own son had been abducted! Mu sobs while talking. It takes her some time to make the whole thing clear to Li. Li is rtively calm. Well, do you have a clear picture of Pudding? Send it to me. And any typical features of him, tell me. I will send for people to look for him right away. Yes, I have. Ill send it to you right away. Pudding, has the same blood type as you do. While heughs, only one small dimple will appear on one side of the face just like you. He has a pair of silver bracelets on his wrists. They, they were left by your father. En-en, and Mu suddenly stops in the middle of the sentence when she finds that shes made a mistake. Yet its already toote. The man at the other end of the phone has already spotted it. Instantly his voice changes from caring to questioning, Youyou, Pudding is my son, isnt he? He CCcontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. As far as I can remember, the silver bracelets were left by my father for his grandchildren. You gave them to Pudding. He even has the same blood type and dimple as mine. Ha, ha, anything else you want to exin about this? Li Qiaosheng speaks urately word by word. Mu Ziyou is speechless. Being so anxious, she leaves all the other worries behind and cries, Yes, youre right. He is your son! So you must get him back! Without Pudding I wont have any desire to live on Give me one day! The man hangs up with such a resolute sentence. Chapter 40: I Became a Woman with Nothing Left Overnight Proofreader: Zhou Zhijie It takes only half a day for Li to get information about Pudding. It was a woman wearing a mask that pushed away Puddings stroller. She immediately got into a car right outside the park. As for where the car is now, its still being tracked down. Mus heart finally falls from throat back halfway to her chest. She believes firmly that Li Qiaosheng will be able to capture that woman alive soon! In the afternoon, Mu Ziyou, who hasnt slept for nearly 24 hours straight, is atst put to bed by Qin Yang to take a rest for a while. Yet when her phone rings, she opens her eyes immediately. Its an unknown number. If you still want your baby alive,e to see me alone. Although the caller didnt introduce herself, Mu Ziyou recognized at once that the woman is Xia Wanyan, who has been missing for a long time! Since it is not a baby trafficker that took her son, Mu Ziyou can now feel a little relieved. But thinking of the personal grudge between them, shes still in a state of anxiety. After having received the address Xia Wanyan sends her, she finds an excuse and goes out alone. The ce Xia Wanyan wants Mu Ziyou toe to is the underground parking lot of a mall. It is a big parking lot, kind of like a maze. Mu Ziyou has a poor sense of direction. Therefore, it takes her quite some time to find Xia Wanyan who is almost unrecognizable! Soon, however, Mu Ziyou loses the mood to greet her old best friend for she hears her son crying and a ticking sound of the countdown Ha ha, Mu Ziyou! I didnt expect that you would dare toe alone for your son! Well, it depends on your luck whether you can save Pudding before the bomb goes off! Xia Wanyan now doesnt look like a fairdy at all, instead her whole person is in a kind of lunatic state! Mu Ziyou feels somewhat scared now. She till tries to remind her, Xia Wanyan, it is a mall above us! It wouldnt be that insane if it were just me and Pudding. You know, you can never get out alive if you get customers above us involved! I didnt intend to live alone! Mu Ziyou, oh, no, my dear sister. You must be very cheerful and happy now.

With her good sense of hearing, Mu Ziyou finally figures out that Pudding is trapped in a car to the left behind her. The key to the car must be in Xia Wanyans hand, and its not clear how powerful the effect of the bomb is. Not daring to move rashly, Mu Ziyou could only hope to make Xiae to her senses with words.

It wouldnt explode with no one lighting it up! And the stopwatch is just a simple timer. Therefore, nothing will happen even if time is up! She should have thought of it. Xia Wanyan hasnt contacted her family for several days. Where could she have got a bomb? Then, Mu Ziyou catches a faint smell in the car. It is poison gas! No wonder his son cries so hard. Its mainly caused by the pungent smell! Xia Wanyan! Are you crazy? What benefit can you get by killing us two? She knocks at the window hard, ring hard at Xia who is watching outside. But Xia has made the car an airtight space so she cant hear what Mu is saying. Xia just slowly moves her lips to the direction of Mu, seemingly to let her know with the lipnguage, Mu Ziyou, you should have been dead, havent you? Because her lips move very slowly, Mu gets her meaning easily. Xia Wanyan doesnt want to die together with her at all. She has just tricked her and her son into disappearing from the world together!

Isnt that perfect? Xia Wanyan sees the man staring hard at her, mistakenly thinking that he is going to take the car key hidden on her. But Lis smile quickly colds down, staring at Xia with the eyes seeming to be mixed with poison which is able to kill her! He has disdained hitting a woman, but in this case he could not help shooting a kick at her heavily! The moment Xia Wanyans high heels fall off her feet, the man quickly jumps up to them. He then rushes back to the car and tries to smash the window with the high-heeled shoe. This time, a small hole soon appears in the window ss. Then he throws away the high heel and makes the hole bigger with his fist. Finally the hole is wide enough to let a man into the car! The gas in the car also pours out. Mu Ziyou feels her breathing a little smoother, but her whole body has be limp. Even in such a condition, she still holds her hands firmly to Pudding and lets his head rest on her breast to make him draw in less noxious fumes.

Just when he is about to get the woman into his arms with trembling hands and burst into tears, he hears a cry of surprise beside him, Qiaosheng This is Mu Ziyous voice. Yes, it is! Then medical personnel notice that pair of man and woman who are bundling together in the corner.

She was then six and he, twelve, that year. Dont be afraid. Someone wille to save us soon. Hold on! Hold on, little girl! Every time she was about to pass out, the boy would shout by her ear so loudly that she was prevented from falling into aa. Later, when it rained, he fed her water with his hand.

And she remembers that after she said to him, You are so good-looking, you must live on well, he grabbed her hand and solemnly promised like a little man, You, too. You must get out alive.

In fact, after being rescued he woke up with the memory of the earthquake, but he failed to remember the girls name. He could only remember the sense of touch in his hand which was a letter Y. Thats why when Xia Wanyan came to pretend to be the girl, he did not suspect her because her name also has an initial letter Y. However, this time, he clearly hears the girl saying to him, My name is Youyou. Youyou! At the same time, the scene suddenly changes to the car explosion, he also protects Mu Ziyou and her son under him, looking down at the face which shifts from the face of the little girl in her childhood to the face of Mu Ziyou now .

Although Mu Ziyou finally makes Xia Zhiguo give up the birthday party n, she needs more efforts to deal with Li Qiaosheng.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.

Because of this, the connection between Pudding and Mu Ziyou is extremely strong. Seemingly, little Pudding grows into the boyhood version of Li Qiaosheng except in front of Mu Ziyou, he keeps an indifferent face to others, even his father. Pudding would burst into crying every time he sees Li Qiaosheng canoodles with Mu Ziyou, and would stop at once when he is in his mothers embrace. What a smart and shrew boy! As for this, Li Qiaosheng can do nothing but feel sorry for himself this boy must be the number one rival in love God sent him to contend for his wife! Pudding will draw objects at the ceremony of his first birthday, for which Mu Ziyou and Li Qiaosheng have carefully prepared a lot of objects, such as, Chinese calligraphy brushes, books, calctors, tape measures, and red Chinese currency notes By the way, what did you get at your objects drawing ceremony on your first birthday? Mu Ziyou suddenly asks Li next to her. On hearing this, Li touches his jaw and immerses into his memory, As I recall it was a book about management. No wonder you can run Shengshi Group so well! Shements. After a while, Mu asks again, What do you think our son will choose? Anything will be OK, except for cosmetics! Li Qiaosheng cant get the point of making cosmetics a choice.

No. He must take over the group which Ive established in the future! He says in a bossy way. Mu Ziyou is not in the mood to argue with him. Anyway, they will get to know the answer when the timees. Because Mu Ziyou doesnt like to socialize with people, Li Qiaosheng doesnt make this ceremony an extremely grand event. He only invites the rtives and close friends of both sides, including Qin Yang. Its probably because Qin Yang is the first man Pudding met since he was born, Qin Yang seems to be closer to Pudding than his own father. And this made Li Qiaosheng rather jealous. Butter on, on thinking that it is this man who took care of his wife when he is not around, he consequently gets over it.

Atst, Pudding bypasses all the objects on the floor and rushes into his mothers arms. No, to be more precise, its Mu Ziyous clothes his little hands clutch at. He looks up and chuckles, Mom, clothes. Just as everyone is still in confusion, Mu Ziyou catches the coldness of her husbands eyes. He steps forward and stands in front of Pudding blocking others sight, Well, well. Pudding wants to be a designer to design beautiful clothes for mommy. How nice! At the same time, Pudding tilts his little head and gives his father a sidelong nce, with the words Mom is mine clearly written in his eyes. Little brat! Li Qiaosheng pretends to smack him, while Pudding skilfully runs away to seek shelter behind Qin Yang. Mu Ziyou stands still, seeing the father and son chasing after and having fun with each other. She feels a sense of peace and tranquility from inside. If we can not grow old together, Id rather have never met you. If Ive never met you, whats the meaning of living in the world?
