Chapter 276: Killing You Will Not Help
Then, his whole body stiffened.
Xie Zhaoyuan's fist stopped for a moment, feeling the changes in Qin Wushuang's body with some panic.
Qin Wushuang's whole body was stiff, and his originally even breathing became heavy and rapid. At the same time, his right arm, which was resting on Xie Zhaoyuan, was twitching violently.
Xie Zhaoyuan's dark eyes turned slowly, and through these changes in his body, she vaguely guessed something.
In order to verify this guess, she decisively and quickly punched Qin Wushuang's right arm again.
"Um--"
Qin Wushuang's groan was filled with pain, and Xie Zhaoyuan instantly confirmed his guess.
"Qin Wushuang, is your arm still injured?" she asked with narrowed eyes.
Qin Wushuang did not hide it from her and honestly admitted: "Yes, I still have an old wound on my arm."
“Humph,” Xie Zhaoyuan sneered and gritted his teeth and said, “If there are still old injuries, then I feel relieved.”
After saying that, he reached out and pinched the wound on Qin Wushuang's arm.
"Um--"
Qin Wushuang closed his eyes tightly, and even though his whole body was shaking with pain, he was unwilling to let go of Xie Zhaoyuan.
Xie Zhaoyuan didn't indulge him either. He kept pinching his arm with increasing force until his hand became sore.
But Qin Wushuang still refused to let her go.
"Heh..." He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a burning chuckle from his lips, "Xiao Song, do you hate me so much? You knew that I had an injury on my arm but still wanted to use such a heavy hand on me?"
"Of course I hate you!" Xie Zhaoyuan did not hide his hatred at all, and said with gritted teeth: "Qin Wushuang, I hate you to death!"
Qin Wushuang opened his eyes and stared at her stubborn face: "Do you really hate me so much? Do you hate me so much that you don't even feel sorry for me?"
“Heartbroken?” These two words made Xie Zhaoyuan laugh. “Qin Wushuang, the word ‘heartbroken’ will never appear on you! Even if you were to die in front of me in the next second, I would never feel heartbroken for you!”
"Why?" Qin Wushuang's voice was a little choked.
"Because you deserve it!" Xie Zhaoyuan said viciously, "You changed the lives of three women. You caused us to be separated from our biological parents since childhood, and we suffered a lot that we didn't have to suffer!"
"You also murdered my Pei Xingzhi, nearly killing him twice! Now you have selfishly kidnapped me, separated my husband and I, and tore me apart from my children!"
"Qin Wushuang, you are guilty of a heinous crime and deserve to die! You don't deserve my sympathy at all!"
"What if I knew I was wrong?"
Qin Wushuang grabbed Xie Zhaoyuan's shoulders, turned her body over and laid her flat, then raised one arm to support his body above her.
"Xiao Song, what if I knew I was wrong? What if I was willing to make amends?"
"...Is it useful?" Xie Zhaoyuan asked lightly, "What's the use of you knowing you were wrong? What's the use of you being willing to make amends? Can your knowing your mistakes and making amends make everything go back to the time before it happened?"
“…”
Qin Wushuang couldn't answer.
"Hmph..." Xie Zhaoyuan pulled the corner of his mouth sarcastically, sneered disdainfully, "Now that things have come to this, killing you will not help."
"Xiao Song..." Qin Wushuang looked at her unwillingly, with the last bit of hope still burning in his moist eyes, "Are you really not willing to give me any chance at all?"
"No." Xie Zhaoyuan answered without any hesitation.
Qin Wushuang's tense breath suddenly let out, and his whole body seemed to be drained of all its energy, and he collapsed powerlessly on the bed.
He finally let go of Xie Zhaoyuan.
But Xie Zhaoyuan did not leave. Instead, he just lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling with his lifeless eyes.
After a moment, Qin Wushuang on the side seemed to sense something and suddenly stretched out a hand and wiped Xie Zhaoyuan's cheek.
As expected, a wet mark was left.
"Why are you crying?" Qin Wushuang immediately became nervous.
Xie Zhaoyuan: "I miss Pei Xingzhi."
“…”
This bland sentence nailed Qin Wushuang to the spot.
Qin Wushuang stared at her in a daze and suddenly became speechless.
Xie Zhaoyuan didn't bother to care about his reaction and continued to talk: "I really miss Pei Xingzhi. I want him to hold me while sleeping, to hug me while watching TV, to coax me to eat like a child, and to show off to everyone in the studio that I am his favorite wife."
"I have wasted more than 20 years and finally met someone who truly cares for me and loves me. If you want me to abandon him, you might as well kill me directly."
"...Xiao Song." Qin Wushuang's Adam's apple rolled with difficulty, and his voice was completely hoarse.
"Do you miss Pei Xingzhi so much?"
"Yes." Xie Zhaoyuan shed tears and said firmly, "That's how I miss Pei Xingzhi. I miss him so much that I'm going crazy."
As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Qin Wushuang. As if to deliberately provoke him, she also said some things that he couldn't accept.
"I not only miss him as a person, I also miss the days and nights we spent together, and the marks he left on me!"
As she wished, the next second after hearing these words, Qin Wushuang's breathing immediately became unstable.
"Oh," she laughed disdainfully, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Just you? How can you compare with my Pei Xingzhi?"
“…”
Qin Wushuang stared at her intently, having completely lost the ability to speak.
After talking so much, she was tired, so she turned around and ignored Qin Wushuang.
Qin Wushuang didn't know when he left, but when she came to her senses, his figure had disappeared from the room.
It was late at night, and she stared at the ceiling with her eyes open, but there was no trace of sleepiness in her eyes.
Linzhou...
Qin Feihong...
These two names kept echoing in her mind. She secretly clenched her fists, feeling that she seemed to have found hope of escape.
…
“Da, da, da…”
Careless footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. Qian Jutang in the secret room couldn't help but hold his breath, listening intently to the movements outside the door.
He didn't know where this was, he only knew that when he woke up he was inexplicably locked up here.
It's dark and damp here, there's no sunlight, and even the air is depressing.
Although he had seen a lot of the world, he still felt scared deep down.
"clatter……"
The footsteps finally stopped outside the rusty iron gate.
He raised his eyes hastily, staring in horror at the iron gate hidden in the darkness.
“Click—”
“Wow——”
The lock of the iron door was opened, and then the door panel was pushed open a crack, and a tall figure appeared in his sight.
He opened his eyes wide, trying to see the face of the figure clearly, but the light was too dim and the figure was facing away from the light, so he could not see anything even if he opened his eyes wide.
"clatter……"
At this time, a figure raised his foot and slowly walked towards him.
