Chapter 6 Chu Li wants to make amends
Chu Li took a pillow and placed it behind Qin Xingwan, rolled up his shirt sleeves, revealing his strong forearms.
He opened the thermos beside the bed and poured out the soup.
The aroma of food filled the air, and Qin Xingwan's stomach growled in response.
She reached for it.
Chu Li moved away and sat on the edge of the bed, "I'll feed you."
He looked gentle and thoughtful at this moment.
Qin Xingwan was in a daze, as if there had never been any conflict between them because of Qin Yunshu.
"I'll do it myself." She refused Chu Li.
Chu Li slowly handed the spoon to Qin Xingwan's lips.
Qin Xingwan frowned. She couldn't figure out Chu Li's thoughts. When they were in the car, he blamed her for bullying Qin Yunshu and asked her to apologize.
At this moment, it was as peaceful as if nothing had happened.
Could it be that the conversation in the car aroused his few remaining consciences?
Qin Xingwan looked at the milky white soup in the spoon and said, "If you have something to say, just tell me."
There was a hint of tenderness in Chu Li's deep black eyes. "It's my fault what happened with the child. I want to make amends."
He said it seriously.
Tears welled up in Qin Xingwan's eyes, and her chest was filled with anger.
make up?
How is he going to make amends?
The soup in the spoon suddenly became disgusting.
"I have no appetite and don't want to eat."
"Don't be angry." Chu Li's face darkened.
"If you still like Qin Yunshu, I'm willing to help you."
"Let's part ways amicably." Qin Xingwan said seriously.
Chu Li put down the soup bowl and lowered his head to Qin Xingwan's cheek.
Their eyes met.
"We originally agreed to get married..."
She interrupted him: "Yes, I know. When we signed the agreement, it was for three years. There are only three months left now."
Her nose felt sore and her voice was hoarse when she spoke.
The marriage was indeed a transaction, but she managed the relationship seriously.
She regarded Chu Li as her husband and as a family member with whom she could spend her life.
But perhaps, things that are not hers were destined not to belong to her from the beginning.
"The cooling-off period for divorce is one month..."
"Even if there is only one day left, you are still Mrs. Chu." Chu Li suddenly got angry.
He picked up the soup bowl again and said, "Taking care of my wife who had a miscarriage is what I, as a husband, should do."
Qin Xingwan held back her tears and drank the soup.
It turned out that he was just fulfilling his responsibilities as a husband.
It's not because of guilt or any other emotion.
After finishing a bowl of soup, the atmosphere in the room was already depressing enough.
Qin Xingwan slowly slid down and closed her eyes.
Chu Li put the thermos back in its place and his eyes fell on Qin Xingwan's pale face. She was clearly very weak, yet she was still angry for no reason and acted like that...
He couldn't understand a woman's mind.
The next morning, Qin Xingwan woke up and found that Chu Li had left at some point. The servants came early and watched her eat breakfast.
Just after finishing breakfast, an elegant middle-aged woman rushed in aggressively and questioned him.
"What did you do to Yunshu?"
Qin Xingwan leaned against the head of the bed, looking indifferently at the woman, her biological and legal mother Zhou Yalan.
Mrs. Qin didn't like her daughter. Seeing her expressionless face, she felt even more displeased and spoke to her rudely.
"Your sister just returned home, and you, as her older sister, didn't do much to help her. Instead, you bullied her in front of outsiders. What are you thinking?"
"You insisted Yunshu take off that dress and give it to you. You didn't want it when I gave it back to you, and you even gave it to the waitress. With so many people watching, you humiliated your sister like that?"
The matter of the dress has spread in the circle. Qin Xingwan herself is well-known for her excellent perfume-making skills and low-key style, and Chu Li was also there yesterday.
Qin Yunshu became a laughing stock and a topic of conversation overnight, her eyes swollen from crying.
Qin Xingwan swallowed the bitterness in her heart and waited for her mother's questioning to end before she said calmly, "I'm in the hospital."
Zhou Xue was stunned. She naturally knew that Qin Xingwan was in the hospital, otherwise she would not have come here.
But I guess it’s some tricks.
Her daughter was raised in the countryside and was very poorly educated.
In order to win the favor of her son-in-law, she has been in a bad mood this month.
"Ali and Yunshu are childhood sweethearts, why are you throwing such a tantrum?" She frowned, as if to teach him a lesson.
Qin Xingwan felt very upset. Her mother and Chu Li both thought she did it on purpose.
It's to win favor.
"My child is gone." She looked up, her pale face as dull as ever.
Mrs. Qin was completely stunned.
The child is gone?
She was speechless.
Qin Xingwan saw it all, feeling both ironic and sad. She deliberately stretched out her tone and whispered, "On the night you celebrated Qin Yunshu's birthday, I called you many times, but you didn't answer."
In a nonchalant tone, he described the despair and pain in the heavy rain.
Mrs. Qin's expression was stiff. Of course, she saw Qin Xingwan's call that night, but because she had never liked her daughter, she chose to ignore it.
I wanted to call back afterwards, but I got busy and forgot.
"Xingwan, I..." She subconsciously wanted to say sorry, but couldn't open her mouth.
There is no reason for a mother to apologize to her daughter.
Besides, it was an accident, which no one wanted.
And her loss of her child had nothing to do with them, and even less to do with Yun Shu.
Thinking of this, I seemed to feel more confident.
"This matter has nothing to do with Yunshu." Madam Qin frowned, not understanding why Qin Xingwan took her anger out on Qin Yunshu. "Besides, you're still young, and you can still have children."
"You shouldn't have embarrassed your sister in front of so many people. We are a family. We all prosper together and suffer together. Do I need to teach you the truth?"
Qin Xingwan thought of the report, and Mrs. Qin's voice in her ears was so noisy and annoying.
She kept saying that she shouldn't have taken her anger about the child out on Qin Yunshu, causing her to lose face at the perfume conference.
"Can you please stop talking?" Qin Xingwan couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted her mother.
"I want to rest."
Mrs. Qin was dissatisfied. One of the reasons why she disliked Qin Xingwan was her personality.
She is indifferent and cold, and doesn't get close to anyone, as if everyone owes her something.
"Yunshu is crying at home. Call her and apologize." Mrs. Qin finally stated the purpose of her visit. "A family should be harmonious. Besides, you are the elder sister..."
"Should my sister die?" Qin Xingwan retorted coldly.
"How do you speak?"
"She was raised in your hands since she was a child, while I was abandoned in the countryside by you and ignored. What do I owe her? Why should I give in to her?" Qin Xingwan's eyes were red.
She had endured these words for three years and finally let them out.
Mrs. Qin was furious. "Those years your father had a hard time starting his business. We had no choice but to help him. We didn't deprive you of food and clothing. Why are you so resentful?"
Resentment is a good word.
Qin Xingwan was full of resentment, which was why she developed such a cold personality.
"Yes, it's hard for you to start a business, but you can support Qin Shen and Qin Yunshu, but you can't support me." Qin Xingwan smiled sadly.
Mrs. Qin was embarrassed and angry when her daughter questioned her, and at the same time, she felt guilty without even knowing it.
She said perfunctorily: "Even if we are sorry for you, Yunshu is innocent. She is thinking of you as her sister..."
