After hearing what Cheng Qinqin said, Qiu Sicheng's expression instantly became a little unnatural, and a hint of embarrassment quickly flashed across his cheek.
However, just a moment later, he seemed to come to his senses suddenly, trying to calm himself down, and his expression returned to normal.
He cleared his throat and then slowly began to defend himself:
"Qinqin, although it is undeniable that there may be some considerations in certain matters, you might as well calm down and think about it carefully.
Ever since we got married, haven't I treated you with enough care and attention?
No matter what happens in daily life, as long as it is related to you, which one is not taken to heart and dealt with as a priority?
At home and abroad, big and small matters, which one am I not doing my best to manage and arrange, just to give you a stable and comfortable living environment?
Facing Qiu Sicheng's endless defense, Cheng Qinqin just smiled sadly, and that smile was filled with endless sadness and grief.
Then, she raised her head, staring straight at the man in front of her who had once made a vow to her, and asked mercilessly:
"Yes, you treat me quite well indeed, and from an outsider's perspective you might even consider yourself considerate.
But I am the only one who knows clearly in my heart that all this is just superficial work for others to see! Ask yourself, deep down in your heart, have you ever truly regarded me as your wife?
You have never loved me, not even a little bit! Over the years, I have been silently enduring the pain and torture brought to me by this marriage in name only, and now it is finally time to end it.
Since you have already found the woman you truly love and who has haunted your dreams, why should I, a woman who is nominally your wife but receives no love at all, continue to cling to her and bring trouble upon myself?
Having said that, Cheng Qinqin could no longer suppress the surging emotions in her heart. Her eyes began to turn slightly red, and tears kept swirling in her eyes like a flood that had broken through a dam, and were about to burst out.
"The woman I like? Cheng Qinqin, Cheng Qinqin, how on earth can you tell that there is a woman I like? Let me tell you, apart from you, those other so-called women are nothing more than dispensable playthings to me!
Even though you are not the one I love in my heart, you are still my wife no matter what."
Qiu Sicheng frowned and said seriously.
Hearing this, Cheng Qinqin couldn't help but sneer:
"Then what about this woman? Is she also a plaything in your eyes?"
She stared straight at Qiu Sicheng, her eyes full of questioning and suspicion.
Seeing this, Qiu Sicheng quickly stepped forward, held Cheng Qinqin's hand and explained:
"Oh, this is all my fault. I gave that woman the wrong impression. Actually, I just thought she was young and gentle, so I might have been a little more considerate of her. Who would have thought that just because of this little preference, she would have such thoughts that she shouldn't have. Dear, please don't take it to heart. This is all my fault. Don't worry, something like this will never happen again!"
After hearing this, Cheng Qinqin was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"Then you must remember our previous agreement. If it happens again, hmph...you will bear the consequences at your own risk!"
Qiu Sicheng immediately nodded and responded quickly:
"Madam, please rest assured. How could I dare to forget? Don't you know what kind of person I am? I have always been grateful and repaying kindness, but if anyone dares to offend me, I will definitely seek revenge! I will always remember the great kindness my father-in-law has shown me. How could I dare to do anything to let your family down?"
Seeing Qiu Sicheng's solemn pledge of loyalty, Cheng Qinqin's expression finally softened a bit, and she said lightly:
"It's good that you can remember it."
When Qiu Sicheng saw that Cheng Qinqin finally stopped holding on to the matter of Qin Runrun, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He knew very well that Cheng Qinqin's action meant that she had decided to let go of the past and forgive the mistakes he had made. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a long breath that had been suppressed for a long time.
In fact, Qiu Sicheng was not surprised that Cheng Qinqin made such a choice.
After all, their marriage was not based on deep love.
Long before the marriage, the esteemed father-in-law had hinted to him privately:
As long as he can ensure that Cheng Qinqin lives a safe and sound life without any harm, the old man has nothing else to ask for.
All along, Qiu Sicheng believed that he had done his duty in protecting his wife and had a clear conscience.
As for the Qin Runrun incident this time, Qiu Sicheng knew it clearly in his mind - there must be someone with ulterior motives who deliberately wanted to cause trouble for him!
Otherwise, how could this matter reach Cheng Qinqin's ears so coincidentally?
And even if the news really reached her, given her previous temperament, she would never react so violently.
Therefore, no matter what, he must find out the mastermind behind the scenes and make him pay the price for his actions!
As the saying goes, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself." Not long after, Qiu Sicheng successfully discovered the real reason that led to this series of turmoil through a series of investigations...
Before long, rumors about Han Qian's ambiguous relationship with a mysterious man spread like wildfire.
Once this news was exposed, it caused an uproar. Not only did Han Qian lose her job, but her husband's job was also lost.
With no other options left, Han Qian had no choice but to find Qiu Sicheng.
Qiu Sicheng stood there expressionlessly, staring coldly at Han Qian, who was crying bitterly. His icy voice seemed to freeze the air:
"Why did you instigate Cheng Qinqin to provoke Qin Ruanruan?"
Han Qian raised her tear-stained face, jealousy flashing in her eyes, and said through gritted teeth:
"I just can't stand seeing Qin Ruanruan doing well! Why do you keep saying you want to marry her? Back then, I begged you to marry me, but you just ignored me."
Qiu Sicheng snorted coldly, frowning, and responded impatiently: "I have never made any marriage promises to Qin Ruanruan. In my heart, she is no different from you.
In this life, the only woman I want to marry is Cheng Qinqin, and none of you should dream of replacing her."
After a pause, he continued,
"When you chose to be with me, I made it very clear that I would never marry you, and all of this was with your consent."
Han Qian burst into tears, her body trembling slightly:
"But...when I heard those rumors that you would marry Qin Ruanruan, my heart ached so much!"
Qiu Sicheng remained unmoved.
