Huo Yanxue's pungent perfume immediately assailed the man's nostrils.
Qin Yusheng's breath hitched, his brow furrowing almost instinctively, and then he held his breath.
He had always disliked such a strong scent.
If he hadn't smelled it on Huo Yanxue, he might have almost forgotten how much he detested such a smell.
He had never smelled such a strong perfume on Zhao Shuyao.
It seemed Zhao Shuyao's scent was always a faint milky fragrance.
Even when she wore a pungent perfume, it would quickly dissipate, eventually turning into a faint milky scent...
Qin Yusheng fell into a daze.
"Brother Yusheng, Brother Yusheng, what are you thinking about? Brother Yusheng, are you thinking about Sister Yaoyao? I heard the doctor say I was asleep for a very, very long time. When I was asleep, did you and Sister Yaoyao develop feelings for each other..."
Huo Yanxue clung tightly to the man, afraid that Qin Yusheng would be snatched away.
She loved this man too much. He was young, handsome, wealthy, and even his family background and education were perfect. Such a perfect, absolute male god could only love her. Let alone Zhao Shuyao, even anyone else touching him felt like they were stealing.
"No, have you eaten since you woke up?" Qin Yusheng pressed the call button, summoning a nurse to bring food.
"Brother Yusheng, I'm not hungry. When can you and Sister Yaoyao get a divorce? You promised to marry me and make me the happiest bride..."
Xue'er was unwilling, biting her lower lip, tears falling down like raindrops, splashing onto the quilt.
"Give me some time. Grandpa won't agree. You know how much Grandpa dotes on her. If I bring it up, it will affect our future. Do you want this?"
Qin Yusheng took a tissue to wipe away her tears, coaxing her patiently.
Xue'er grabbed Qin Yusheng's arms with both hands, shaking them and acting spoiled, "Brother Yusheng, I want to be your bride. Is that wrong? Why can't we divorce? Is it because Sister Yaoyao doesn't want to divorce? She's occupied you for so long, shouldn't she return you to me..."
"It has nothing to do with her."
As soon as he said it, even Qin Yusheng himself was stunned.
He hadn't expected himself to speak up for Zhao Shuyao.
His heart was full of grievances and anger, but upon hearing Qin Yusheng speak for Zhao Shuyao, he became even more incensed and asked tentatively.
"Brother Yusheng, do you like Sister Yaoyao? Is that why you don't want to divorce..."
"Silly girl, how could that be? Would I fall in love with that kind of woman?"
Qin Yusheng denied it almost without thinking.
Fall in love with Zhao Shuyao?
How could that be possible!
That kind of scheming woman who would do anything to get ahead, how could he possibly fall in love with such a woman.
It was simply absurd.
After receiving the man's affirmative answer, Huo Yanxue let out a sigh of relief. "Since that's the case, I'm relieved. Brother Yusheng, I'll wait. You must hurry and let me wear a wedding dress..."
Tan Gong.
Zhao Shuyao simply packed her clothes and some seasonal clothes she wouldn't wear.
"Sister Wu, please throw these clothes away for me later."
Zhao Shuyao glanced around the room, which she had tidied up, leaving no trace of herself.
Sister Wu looked troubled. "Miss Le, are you really moving out? Does Mr. Qin know about this?"
"He doesn't need to know... Even if he knew, he'd probably be happy. Mr. Qin and I are preparing for divorce. I'm sorry to trouble you, Sister Wu. I won't be coming back."
After speaking, Zhao Shuyao pulled the handle of her suitcase and started to walk out.
She unexpectedly bumped into the man returning home.
Qin Yusheng didn't know when he had returned. He stood at the entrance, watching coldly. There was no light at the entrance, only the faint light from the living room, allowing her to vaguely see the aura around the man.
Ice cold.
"Divorce? When did I agree to divorce you?"
The moment she saw Qin Yusheng, Zhao Shuyao's heart skipped a beat, and she knew it was bad.
As expected, the moment the man spoke, her face changed.
"Qin Yusheng, you clearly promised to divorce me... I don't care! I'm divorcing you no matter what!"
Zhao Shuyao gritted her teeth, not understanding what scheme the man was up to now.
Logically speaking, Huo Yanxue had woken up, and she was actively proposing a divorce. Wouldn't that be a double celebration?
Shouldn't Qin Yusheng quickly divorce her and happily marry Huo Yanxue?
Why did it seem like she was forcing him to divorce?
So, all the bad things were done by her?
"When did I agree? Did I sign? Or did I say it out loud? Do you have any proof?"
Qin Yusheng pressed her step by step, speaking with certainty. Zhao Shuyao was cornered by the man, her back hitting the cold wall.
"You... Qin Yusheng, you're being unreasonable! You clearly..."
Zhao Shuyao's face turned red with anger.
She wanted to retort to Qin Yusheng, but she couldn't utter a single word of refutation.
Because it was exactly as Qin Yusheng said, she had no evidence to prove that Qin Yusheng had ever agreed to divorce her.
Qin Yusheng's lips curved, and he let out a mocking laugh.
"Since there's no proof, what are you doing? My dear wife, are you planning to run away from home?"
"You..." Is this man crazy?
What was he planning?
Zhao Shuyao couldn't understand, but she could only give up for now. "I'm not leaving! I didn't say I wanted to divorce you, did I? When did I say that? Why do you say I want to divorce you?"
Zhao Shuyao directly threw down her suitcase, then turned and went upstairs.
"Sister Wu, help her pack."
After Qin Yusheng gave the instruction, he turned and went into the kitchen, taking out a bottle of Jagermeister from the wine cabinet.
Zhao Shuyao lay on the bed in frustration, her head aching from anger. Just as she was drifting off to sleep, she suddenly felt herself being kissed.
The next morning.
Sister Wu knocked and opened the door, glancing at the messy room. Seeing that the man had not woken up, she tiptoed in and placed the hangover soup by his bed.
"Sister Wu..." Suddenly the quilt moved, and the man sat up, pressing his throbbing head. "Last night..."
The quilt slid off the man, revealing a large expanse of muscle.
"Sir, don't you remember? Last night you and Madam..."
Sister Wu's eyes widened in surprise. Zhao Shuyao had cried out so loudly that even in the room downstairs, it could be heard.
Qin Yusheng remained silent for a long while before speaking in a hoarse voice, "Tell her to take her medicine."
Then he picked up the hangover soup from the bedside table and gulped it down, his Adam's apple bobbing.
"Madam already took it herself this morning and went out."
Sister Wu said this and walked to the door, closing it.
The door clicked shut, and Qin Yusheng's heart also skipped a beat.
For the first time, he realized how obedient and sensible this woman was...
His heart ached involuntarily.
