Chapter 108 Sentenced to Death

What happened next was predictable. Hao Ke was most afraid that Chi Donglin would find out about this. This was the reason she forced Chi Donglin to marry her. Although she was genuinely unaware at first, if Chi Donglin found out, he would definitely divorce her!

So when Chi Donglin went up to question her, Hao Ke panicked and tried to run away, but tripped over something and fell.

Qin Suisui really didn't know what to say for a moment, so that's why she saw Chi Donglin and Hao Ke at the hospital entrance in the morning.

"And what about Brother Donglin?"

Song Yunlai said, feeling tired, and took a sip of water: "They must have gotten into a fight with that adulterer!"

"Knowing he couldn't escape, the adulterer also came to the hospital. It was only after Hao Ke went into the operating room that the adulterer heard the way people around him addressed Dong Lin and learned Dong Lin's identity. He knew he had made a big mistake and dared not hide anything, so he told them everything."

It turned out that after Hao Ke was kicked out of Qin Suisui's house that night, Chi Donglin was worried and chased after her. The two talked for a long time by the roadside, and after dark, Chi Donglin took Hao Ke back to her dormitory.

As Chi Donglin was about to leave, Hao Ke invited him to come upstairs for a while and have a glass of water before he left. Chi Donglin knew that she lived in a single dormitory room, so he didn't think much of it and went in.

When Hao Ke returned to her dorm, she took out some alcohol and said she was feeling down. She also mentioned the box of boiled chicken she hadn't given away yet, and asked Dong Lin to have some with her. Because of the nature of their work, Chi Dong Lin and the others didn't usually drink much, so he wasn't a big drinker and soon became completely drunk.

Hao Ke drank a few more glasses and then went to the restroom.

Their dormitory was the type of apartment building used by the Su family, with the toilets outside. When she came back from the toilet, she absentmindedly went into the wrong room.

The next room was also a single room, belonging to Song Ye, the captain of the track and field team. She was the short-haired girl who stood up for Hao Ke on the day he led the track and field team to the family compound to force him into marriage.

During that time, Song Ye was on vacation and went back to her parents' home, so she lent her dormitory to her younger brother, Song Xu, for temporary accommodation.

Song Xu secretly brought his girlfriend over, but that night he had a fight with her and went out for drinks with some buddies. He wasn't completely drunk, but he was a little dazed. It was late at night, so he mistook Hao Ke, who had crept up to him in the dark, for his girlfriend.

Song Xu thought his girlfriend was giving him an out, and decided to take the initiative since they were getting married anyway.

Hao Wei felt that since Chi Donglin had finally accepted her, she would have the opportunity to stay by Pei Jiuyan's side forever.

Both had drunk some alcohol, but weren't completely drunk. In the darkness of their confused consciousness, they both wanted to perform their best. So one performed exceptionally well, and the other was exceptionally proactive. In the end, a seed of life was planted directly in Hao Ke's belly during that exhilarating night.

The next morning, Song Xu woke up first, only to find that the naked person lying in his arms was not his girlfriend! It was the track and field team member who lived next door to his sister!

He was completely flustered. In his panic, he noticed that the door to the next room was open. So he helped Hao Ke, who was still fast asleep, put on some clothes and carried her back to her own bed.

Upon seeing the other man lying on the sofa, Song Xu knew he had made a grave mistake and fled in fear.

During this time, Song Xu had been feeling guilty. It was only in the last few days that he learned from his sister that Hao Ke was pregnant, and he decided to find an opportunity to talk to Hao Ke clearly. He wanted Hao Ke to divorce Chi Donglin and marry him, since she was already carrying his child.

Hao Ke had given him a good scolding back then, and today he wanted to come and persuade her again. When he was talking to Hao Ke in the alley, he didn't expect that Chi Donglin would hear them.

After hearing the complicated story, Qin Suisui really didn't know what to think.

Of course she knew that Hao Ke wanted to marry Chi Donglin for the sake of her husband, Pei Jiuyan.

It can only be said that Hao Ke's initial intentions were wrong, which led her down a path of no return.

After hearing the story, Qin Suisui ate something and then helped Chi Donglin remove all the silver needles.

Chi Donglin woke up quickly.

He opened his eyes, staring blankly at the white ceiling, and suddenly said, "Ayan, Yunlai."

Pei Jiuyan and Song Yunlai thought something was wrong and quickly went over to him: "What's wrong, buddy? Want some water or something?"

"I want a divorce!"

He said this almost through gritted teeth.

Qin Suisui understood that no matter how much Chi Donglin liked Hao Ke, or how many years he had secretly loved her, he couldn't stand her cheating on him. Even if she didn't know before, she clearly knew before she went to the hospital to visit the injured Chi Donglin yesterday and told him about the pregnancy! But she still chose to lie to him and make him swallow this bitter pill!

Pei Jiuyan and Song Yunlai were also not optimistic about their marriage. Everyone understood why Hao Ke married Chi Donglin, but Chi Donglin was deeply involved. Knowing there were tigers in the mountains, he still went into the tiger's den. This time, he finally figured it out.

They initially treated Hao Ke as a childhood friend, but what Hao Ke did in Beijing and on Qiongtan Island truly made Pei Jiuyan and Song Yun see her true colors. They realized that people with different values ​​cannot work together.

"Good lad! You're finally a man again!" Song Yunlai patted his shoulder, as happy as if it were New Year's Day.

"By the way, how is Hao Ke?" Qin Suisui asked. As the female protagonist of the incident, there was still no news.

"A guard just reported that Hao Ke has finished her surgery and been wheeled back to her ward. The baby is gone," Pei Jiuyan said softly.

It's easy to guess without even asking. Hao Ke's baby was only a little over a month old, which is the most unstable time. After falling and bleeding heavily, it was definitely not going to survive.

A silence fell over the ward. Qin Suisui explained the precautions to Chi Donglin before leaving, giving the three brothers some space. She then took Zanzan back to the family compound.

In the afternoon, Pei Jiuyan returned and told her that Zhou Zecheng had been transferred to the military region. Even though he was physically weak at the moment, he could not escape the charges of abducting military dependents, kidnapping, and insulting women and military dependents. He would probably be sentenced to death soon.

Hao Ke has also woken up. Upon learning that she lost her child and that Chi Donglin wanted to divorce her, she completely broke down. Crying and screaming, she asked someone to help her out so she could call her mother, who would probably be over in the next couple of days.

Qin Suisui no longer worries about their farce. These past few days, she has focused on recuperating at home and spending time with her children. Only when she goes to the hospital every morning to give Chi Donglin acupuncture can she listen to Song Yun talk about the progress of the divorce, and then go downstairs to see Jia Zhenzhen.

Hearing that Hao's mother had arrived, she pointed at Chi Donglin's nose and gave him a good scolding. Chi Donglin didn't hold back and directly revealed all the things Hao Ke had done.

Eventually, Chi's parents came over, and another heated argument ensued. The matter even reached Commander Jia's ears. In any case, Chi Donglin was determined to get a divorce.

Hao Ke knew that Chi Donglin was the most soft-hearted person, and wanted to see him in person, talk to him, ask for his forgiveness, and ask him to live a good life together in the future.

But Chi Donglin knew he was easily swayed by emotions, so he simply refused to see Hao Ke and had Song Yunlai relay all his messages.

Their lives were chaotic and stressful, but Qin Suisui's life was extremely leisurely.

The previous batch of translated materials has been completed and submitted. Qin Suisui has obtained more than a hundred documents that need to be translated from Pei Jiuyan's materials. This time, she has a month to complete the translation, so there is no rush.

Pei Jiuyan would either not come back for a day or two, or when he did come back, he would torment her all night. Seeing how exhausted Qin Suisui was, he would sometimes have to go to the toilet to take care of things himself.

Qin Suisui felt worried. Pei Jiuyan's behavior clearly indicated a problem. He used to desire her body, but he always restrained himself. However, lately, he seemed to have boundless energy, especially when he was with her.

But when she took Pei Jiuyan's pulse every day, she couldn't detect anything unusual. Was it because her medical skills weren't good enough? Or was this poison too cunning? If he didn't show signs of illness, she couldn't help him treat it.

That afternoon, Qin Suisui was making partridge tea at home when Pei Jiuyan suddenly returned.

Upon seeing him, Qin Suisui's legs went weak instinctively. Pei Jiuyan, however, didn't notice her unusual behavior and asked, looking at the tea leaves in the pot, "What is this?"

"This is fresh partridge tea that Grandma Mai gave me. I'm making it for you to drink; it can help reduce liver fire."

With just one sentence, Pei Jiuyan understood her intention.

He couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Qin Suisui was annoyed by his laughter. Since her hands were busy, she kicked him, but Pei Jiuyan caught her calf in his hand and gently placed it on the ground.

Qin Suisui glared at him, but didn't stop frying tea leaves. She loved drinking tea and knew how to fry tea leaves; it was a skill she had practiced since childhood.

Pei Jiuyan took a thick envelope out of his pocket and handed it to her: "Here, your last batch of royalties has arrived."

Just as the tea leaves were finished being roasted, Qin Suisui ladled them out and set them aside to cool. She then excitedly took the envelope, opened it, and counted the money – a whopping 1,846 yuan! That was almost several years' income for an average family!

Qin Suisui beamed, "Pei Jiuyan, I'm so amazing!"

Pei Jiuyan looked at her with a smile, his eyes gentle: "Yes, you are really amazing."

He then reached out and handed her another envelope: "This is my salary and allowance for this month."

This is something they do every month without fail. Ever since they got married, Pei Jiuyan has voluntarily handed over his salary, giving her the rest of his money after keeping enough for his own food each month.

Qin Suisui took the money and counted it, then looked up in surprise: "How come it's so much more than last month?"

Pei Jiuyan reached out and tucked her wind-blown hair behind her ear, smiling as he said, "Have you forgotten? I had a big mission last month, and I got a bonus for my technical work." He paused, then pulled out twenty yuan from his pocket: "But I took out twenty yuan in advance."

Qin Suisui nodded, thinking he was useful, and didn't ask any more questions, but Pei Jiuyan continued, "We won't cook dinner tonight. We'll go buy you a dress first, and then we'll go to a state-run restaurant for dinner."

Qin Suisui didn't react: "Why did you buy me a dress out of the blue?"

Pei Jiuyan chuckled: "Didn't I say I'd buy you a new dress every month from now on?"
