Chapter 757
757 Saying that I jinxed my wife (1)
Qu Huaian did not push him away, allowing him to take over the city.
However, she was still trembling instinctively.
Xie tingxi didn’t seem to notice her trembling and took everything she had.
He prided himself on being good at scheming and scheming. There was no project he couldn’t take down, and there was no heart he couldn’t break.
However, in the Nepal case, he lost terribly. How could he accept that he had lost to a woman again?
Now, he was trying his best to squeeze into her heart, but …
Her body was like her heart, tightly shut to him. No matter how hard he tried, he could not squeeze in.
Defeated, he turned around and punched the mirror.
With a crash, the mirror embedded in the cabinet shattered on the ground. The floor was covered in broken pieces, and every piece reflected their shadows.
It shattered into pieces.
Qu Huaian was curled up beside the bathtub, hugging himself. The corners of his eyes were slightly wet.
Xie tingxi’s hand was cut by the shards, and blood dripped on the ground. He looked down at the woman who was trembling but not saying a word. His throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn’t say anything.
What to do?
Even if she had trampled on his self-esteem and pride, he seemed unable to be cruel to her and hurt her at all.
He took a few deep breaths and tried to suppress his emotions. He picked up the clothes on the ground and draped them over her.
Qu Huaian instinctively trembled.
Xie tingxi wrapped her with his clothes and moved his thin lips. don’t be afraid.
Qu Huaian’s lowered eyelashes trembled and he looked up at him. if you still want more, I can drink it. I’ll be fine after I finish it, Yingluo.
Xie tingxi felt the pain again, but he didn’t look hurt. He picked her up with his strong arms, turned around, and walked to the bedroom. He carefully put her on the bed and covered her snow-white skin with the quilt.
“It’s fine. You should rest.”
There was no anger in his calm voice, and it was no different from usual.
With that, he turned around and walked out of the room.
Qu Huaian hugged the blanket tightly, his lowered eyelashes casting a green shadow under his eyes. His empty eyes were devoid of joy, sorrow, and desire.
New Year’s Eve.
Xie tingxi didn’t spend the new year with his son, nor did he spend time with qu Huaian in bed. He didn’t even go out to drink with someone to share his thoughts. Instead, he sat alone in his study and smoked cigarette after cigarette.
The study room was filled with smoke, almost drowning the man’s delicate features, but the sadness in his eyes could not be hidden.
At first, he had thought that qu Huaian had other thoughts about him, and it wasn’t impossible for him to play with her. Later on, he found out that she had approached him and even betrayed him for Jiang rang’s sake. He hated her to the core.
Rather than sending her to prison, it would be better to keep her by his side and torture her personally, slowly torturing Yingluo.
He suddenly felt that it would be good if he could continue to live like this.
Until tonight, when he wanted to go into the bathroom to get his shaving cream and saw her drinking that kind of thing. To him, it was a great humiliation.
He really wanted to kill her, but when he saw her trembling with her back facing him, his heart softened.
It turned out that the so-called marriage revenge was just an excuse she made up for herself.
He just wanted to keep her by his side.
Xie tingxi leaned back in his chair, raised his head, and blew out a thin puff of smoke. He couldn’t help but smile and laugh at himself.
He had never thought that he would truly fall in love with qu Huai ‘an. Even if he did like him, it would not carry much weight and should be able to be abandoned at any time.
Back then, he could bear to leave Yun Youwei without saying goodbye and make her think that he was dead. Why couldn’t he bear to do the same to qu Huaian now?
And her heart was so soft.
The most ironic thing was that he still had some hope in his heart. He hoped that qu Huaian would really fall in love with him.
He yearned to love her, to have the same thoughts as her, and to grow old with her.
***
On the morning of the first day of the new year, Xie tingxi brought Xie Yumu back to the Xie family’s old mansion to kowtow to the group of old men.
He did not bring qu Huaian back.
When Xie Yumu asked, he just said he had a cold and it was not convenient to dismiss him.
Qu Huaian did not catch a cold, but he did not sleep the entire night and was not in good spirits.
He wanted to sleep in the morning, but there were firecrackers nearby from time to time, so he couldn’t sleep peacefully.
She got out of bed, changed her clothes, and went downstairs. She declined the Butler’s kindness in preparing breakfast for her. She put on a white down jacket and went out.
It was not easy to get a taxi on the first day of the new year, so she waited for a long time before a car took her to the cemetery.
It had snowed all night last night, and the snow on the road had been removed. However, the cemetery was on holiday, and the thick snow on the ground made creaking sounds when one stepped on it.
Qu Huai ‘an slowly walked to the front of qu Huainan’s gravestone and exhaled a puff of air.
“Brother, Happy New Year.”
A gust of cold wind blew, and the snow on the branches fell down.
She bent down and used her hand to sweep the snow off the tombstone bit by bit. She wiped away the snow covering the photo, revealing qu Huainan’s young and energetic face.
She sat in front of the gravestone, rubbing her red hands, and white mist surrounded her breath.
brother, I’m doing well. You don’t have to worry about me. Yingluo, I just miss you a little.
She missed the only person in the world who was willing to treat her well and give her gentleness and warmth.
But she would never see him again.
“Brother, they’ve left Mo City. Will you blame me?” She lowered her eyes and did not look at him. Instead, she muttered to herself, ” “I can’t control them, I can’t even control Yingluo.”
Not hating them had already used up the last of her strength and kindness.
On this day of family reunions, she sat alone in the cemetery for the whole day, talking to qu Huainan on and off.
Because she had no home and no family.
Life was like a pool of stagnant water, without any waves.
She was like a rose, slowly dying in the cruelty and ugliness of qu Zhengguo and Liu ru.
Jiang rang was supposed to be the one who allowed her to shine light, but in the end, he was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
She was really exhausted.
Qu Huaian lay on the snowy ground, looking at the vast sky and the snow blending into one. His heart was barren and desolate.
She didn’t know how long she had been lying there, until someone picked her up and gently brushed away the snow on her hair.
When qu Huaian opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the man’s calm and handsome features, as well as the faint scent of Cedar on his body.
Xie tingxi’s warm palm touched her cold face. do you want to freeze to death here on the first day of the new year? ”
Qu Huaian seemed to have been frozen silly. His reaction was extremely slow, and his voice was low and hoarse. it’s not impossible.
“No,” Xie tingxi rejected the proposal without thinking. I just got married. I don’t want to be a widower yet. I don’t want people to say that I jinx my wife.
Qu Huaian did not know if he was mocking him, but he did not care. let me know when you can.
Xie tingxi didn’t reply. His gaze fell on her legs. can you still walk? ”
