Chapter 59: I haven’t seen my sister-in-law for a long time. I have made all the necessary arrangements.
At night, Su Yinuo felt sleepy early. After taking a shower, she leaned against the head of the bed, holding a book and falling asleep.
Qin Wangxuan came over, sat beside her and held her in his arms. She leaned against him and did not refuse.
He lifted the quilt to cover them both, pressed against her legs, and rubbed the instep of her foot against her smooth, cold sole. He asked, "Why are you so cold?"
She didn't answer.
"Wait a moment, I'll warm you up and then come back to hug you later." He came to the end of the bed, took her feet out of the quilt, held them in his arms, and rubbed them.
She shrank slightly and couldn't help laughing: "Itchy..."
He grabbed her ankle, put his fingers into her trouser legs, touched the soft calf, and couldn't help but have dirty thoughts.
In the end, he managed to hold it in with great difficulty. After warming up her feet, he covered her with the quilt again and held her in his arms.
"I don't understand. Can you explain it to me?" Su Yinuo said tiredly as she put the English novel in her hand into Qin Wangxuan's hand.
Qin Wangxuan picked up the book and began to translate: "Just as he was whispering something to the Cardinal..."
"Read English to me," Su Yinuo interrupted him.
Qin Wangxuan recited the original text aloud, his voice surprisingly pleasant. Su Yinuo was mesmerized by the reading, but also grew increasingly sleepy. She leaned against Qin Wangxuan and fell into a deep sleep.
Qin Wangxuan smiled, put her down gently, covered her with the quilt, and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
Suddenly, the phone rang, and Qin Wangxuan was startled. Afraid of waking Su Yinuo, he didn't even check the caller's name and directly clicked to answer.
An unexpected, cold voice came from the phone: "Qin Wangxuan, where is Su Yinuo?"
"Brother, you, you came out?" Qin Wangxuan exclaimed in a low voice, and at the same time, he was a little nervous.
"I'm asking you about Su Yinuo!" Qin Cangye's voice trembled with suppression.
Qin Wangxuan panicked and answered honestly, "She's asleep. She hasn't been feeling well lately and goes to bed early every day."
"Where did she sleep?" Qin Cangye almost gritted his teeth before asking this question.
Qin Wangxuan could clearly tell that Qin Cangye was not in a good mood. He didn't dare to provoke him, nor did he want to lie to him. He took a deep breath and said, "Brother, you said I would do anything as long as she wants. She is now... sleeping next to me."
After a series of clangs, the phone went busy. Qin Wangxuan froze and quickly called his attending physician, but no one answered.
-
Inside the sanatorium, Qin Cangye locked himself in his room, pounding on the wall frantically with his fists. Pieces of the snow-white wall peeled off, leaving bloodstains on the surface. Tears streamed down his pale face.
His heart ached, and even breathing was accompanied by a sharp pain like being tortured to death. He knelt down, his hands leaving two lines of blood on the wall. He fell to the ground, gritting his teeth and trembling.
He didn't understand why Su Yinuo had thrown herself into the arms of another man in such a short time, but he knew that no matter what the reason was, he had no right to blame Su Yinuo.
It was he who almost killed Su Yinuo.
I used to be nothing either. I forced her, imprisoned her, and even possessed her without restraint all day long...
So, it is only natural that she leaves a madman like me!
I'm not worthy of her at all.
I couldn't give her a stable life, all I brought her was disaster.
Qin Cangye, oh Qin Cangye, didn't you realize this and entrust her to someone else? Why are you reluctant to let her go now?
Because you're a selfish bastard! You're a lunatic, a beast! You don't deserve it, you don't deserve it at all! You deserve to die, you deserve to die!
He covered his tearful face with his bloody hands, cursing, mocking, and spitting at himself. Then he turned around and searched the simple room for something to end his life.
He didn't calm down until Dr. Qi and a group of assistants broke in, pinned him to the ground, and injected him with a sedative.
After that, Qin Cangye remained isolated in the sanatorium for another month. As his medication dosage increased, his mood became increasingly stable, almost like a monster without any emotions at all.
Before leaving the sanatorium, Dr. Qi had performed several stimulations on him, all with relatively satisfactory results. Despite this, Dr. Qi was still uneasy about letting him go, as he knew that a calm monster could be even more terrifying when it went mad.
"You must take the medicine on time and in the correct dosage, and come back for a follow-up visit every month!" Dr. Qi warned seriously.
After leaving the sanatorium, Qin Cangye stood at the door and thought about his life's purpose for ten minutes. Without Su Yinuo, the meaning of his life was reduced to one: to make Qin Weishu lose everything, ruin his reputation, and make his life worse than death.
So he took a taxi back to Ronghua Capital headquarters.
As he reached the main entrance of the headquarters building, he caused a flurry of exclamations from the surrounding crowd. After the exclamations, people came to greet him. He responded with an indifferent expression and a nod.
People were surprised to find that Vice President Qin, who had always been cold and violent, seemed to have changed. Although his hostility was gone, he was still difficult to approach.
Qin Cangye looked at the crowded glass revolving door in front of him, slowed down his pace, and then saw a black Bentley coming from a distance in the reflection of the glass.
The Bentley stopped at the roadside opposite the main entrance. The driver got out and opened the door. Qin Wangxuan got out of the car and turned around to hold the hand of a gentle woman.
Qin Cangye's steps suddenly stopped, and he slowly turned around. From a distance of dozens of meters, through the crowded crowd, he saw the figure that only one glance caused a thousand waves in his heart that had been calmed by drugs.
She was wearing a loose white down jacket, with her long hair lazily tied behind her head. She grabbed his hand and her body was already nestled in his arms.
After not seeing her for a long time, she seemed to have become thinner and a little tired. Her slightly drooped eyes seemed listless, and her rosy lips seemed to be just a disguise of lipstick.
What happened to her? Was the pregnancy too hard? How could she be so exhausted? Why couldn't I take good care of her?
Qin Cangye was furious.
He stood at the revolving door like a statue. The people around him followed his gaze and saw the person he was looking at. They covered their mouths in surprise, lowered their heads and made way.
So, Su Yinuo quickly saw her, then stopped and froze in place.
She had never expected that she would meet Qin Cangye so unexpectedly on such an ordinary and boring day.
In an instant, a strong emotion surged from the bottom of her heart, spreading out like the roaring waves, and then swept over like a huge wave, knocking her into the dark seabed, leaving her completely helpless and falling into the deep sea of emotions.
She opened her mouth slightly and tasted the salty taste on her lips. Only then did she realize that this emotion was longing, a deep yearning.
When did you cry?
She immediately let go of Qin Wangxuan's hand and wiped away her tears. As soon as she put her hand down, Qin Wangxuan held it tightly.
A strong sense of unease emanated from Qin Wangxuan's trembling hands and the cold sweat that covered his palms. He hugged Su Yinuo tightly and slowly walked towards Qin Cangye, who had been staring at Su Yinuo.
"Brother, why didn't you tell me you were back? I could have picked you up." His smile was really forced.
Qin Cangye then looked at Qin Wangxuan and said calmly, "Today is the day."
After looking at Qin Wangxuan, he shifted his gaze to Su Yinuo.
Su Yinuo took a few deep breaths. The closer she got to Qin Cangye, the faster her heart beat, and the more her turbulent emotions became uncontrollable. She didn't dare look at Qin Cangye again, and she didn't know how to greet him. His tone and expression were so cold, so cold that it hurt her, and she couldn't help but start to wonder: Does he really have no feelings for me anymore?
Just when she was feeling sad, she heard Qin Cangye's concerned question: "Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell?"
Brother and sister???
Su Yinuo suddenly looked up and met Qin Cangye's eyes that she found difficult to understand: he was obviously worried, yet very cold.
He seemed to have changed, as if... he had become dull.
"Why are you calling me sister-in-law?!" Su Yinuo was angry and sad. She bit her lip, looked at Qin Wangxuan, and asked, "What did you call me?!"
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, don't be sad," Qin Wangxuan shouted.
Su Yinuo stared at Qin Cangye, her eyes clearly saying: Look, others still treat me as their sister-in-law!
"But you are pregnant with his child," Qin Cangye's sad gaze fell on Su Yinuo's lower abdomen.
Su Yinuo was so angry that she almost cried and asked, "Then why can't it be yours?"
"I, I have taken all the measures..." Qin Cangye answered blankly.
Su Yinuo was stunned, then covered her eyes with tears in her eyes. She didn't understand Qin Cangye's attitude. After thinking about it, she could only think that he really didn't have any feelings for her anymore. Otherwise, how could he say such calmly?
If it were in the past, what would he do? He would have rushed forward and punched Qin Wangxuan to the ground, then snatched her away, grabbed her shoulders and yelled at her: Why are you with someone else? Why are you pregnant with someone else's child?
So, is it really true that you don’t love me anymore?
Su Yinuo curled her lips, walked past Qin Cangye without looking back, and walked into the company lobby. Qin Wangxuan hurriedly chased after her, put his arm around Su Yinuo's shoulders, lowered his head to look at her pale face and red eyes, and comforted her, "Don't be angry, don't be angry."
Su Yinuo lowered her head and walked into the empty executive elevator in a depressed mood. When the elevator door was about to close, Qin Cangye blocked the door and walked in.
In the elevator, the atmosphere became extremely awkward. Su Yinuo stood in the middle, Qin Wangxuan put his arm around her shoulders on her left side, and Qin Cangye kept a distance from her on her right side.
Su Yinuo felt from the corner of her eye that Qin Cangye was staring at her, and also felt that Qin Cangye was getting closer. When her free right hand accidentally touched Qin Cangye's hand, Su Yinuo immediately withdrew her hand, raised her tearful eyes and stared at Qin Cangye who was looking straight at her, wanting to ask: What do you mean?
Qin Cangye still had no expression on his face, but he raised his hand to wipe away the tears from Su Yinuo's eyes and asked, "Why are you about to cry, sister-in-law?"
Just as his fingers were about to touch Su Yinuo's cheek, Qin Wangxuan suddenly exerted force, brought Su Yinuo into his arms, held her face and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
With a ding, the elevator stopped on the 24th floor.
"We're here," Qin Wangxuan held Su Yinuo in his arms and walked out of the elevator with a stiff expression.
Su Yinuo turned her head back, and the elevator door slowly closed. Qin Cangye did not chase out.
As soon as he entered the office, Qin Wangxuan hugged Su Yinuo tightly in his arms. He buried his face in her neck and said in a trembling voice, "I'm so scared. Please don't leave me, okay? Even if he comes back, please don't leave me, okay?"
"Qin Wangxuan," Su Yinuo said, feeling very sad. "It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not. Even if he doesn't come back, we will eventually separate. I said I don't like you. Don't get too involved."
"No!" Qin Wangxuan raised his red eyes, took off Su Yinuo's down jacket and threw it on the sofa not far behind her, then put his arm around her waist and walked forward, pushing her against the back of the sofa, holding the back of her neck, burying his face in her chest and sniffing deeply.
Inside the thin sweater, there was the fresh scent of laundry detergent and the intoxicating fragrance emanating from her body.
"I'll die without you." He murmured, his hands tightening, his fingers leaving fingerprints on the back of her white neck.
Suddenly, the half-closed door of the office was pushed open, and Qin Cangye, with an indifferent expression, appeared at the door like a ghost.
Su Yinuo, who was facing the door, was startled and trembled.
Qin Wangxuan, who had his back to the door, raised his head in confusion, rubbed her neck, and asked dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong?"
