Chapter 16 Divorce is a recurring theme in their conversations.
Shen Jiheng, dressed in a plaid trench coat, opened the ward door and blocked it. He grabbed the wheelchair and dragged Han Xi into the ward, then closed the door, keeping Zhuo Qingqian out.
Zhuo Qingqian stood dumbfounded at the door, her heart filled with despair...
Han Xi frowned and looked at the man. "Why are you here?"
Her tone was full of disdain, as if she was not welcoming Shen Jiheng's arrival.
"Who do you want to come? Han Xi, we're not even divorced yet, and you're already choosing your next partner?" Shen Jiheng bent down in front of Han Xi, his hands gripping the wheelchair handles tightly, the wheelchair pressed against the wall.
This movement positioned Han Xi perfectly between the man and the wheelchair, making it seem as if she were in the man's arms...
A warm breath, mixed with the man's scent of sandalwood and cigarette smoke, wafted over her. Han Xi couldn't stand the smell of cigarettes and instinctively went too far, asking, "Didn't you say you'd have Qin Chuan bring me the divorce papers?"
Silence, stillness, but the man made no further movement.
After doing this for an unknown amount of time, Han Xi felt his neck was sore.
She wondered if Shen Jiheng had fallen asleep in that position. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw his brows furrowed and his deep eyes...
In the past, if Shen Jiheng ever showed this expression, he would definitely torture her in that kind of thing until she begged for mercy until she couldn't make a sound anymore...
"I..." He was sick and something got stuck in his throat.
The man's breath swept over her, invading her lips and conquering the territory of her tongue.
Han Xi felt a chill run down her spine, but she didn't have the strength to push him away.
Either you stubbornly refuse to comply, risking further injury and delaying your discharge, or you endure it...
The woman's misty eyes were filled with grievance.
They're getting a divorce, and he still does this to me!
Shen Jiheng kissed her so passionately that he forgot himself. After all this arguing, he had been irritable and frustrated every single day, and this irritability could only be relieved when he was with her.
As they kissed, the sweetness was replaced by a salty taste. Shen Jiheng regained his senses, pulled away from Han Xi, and incredulously touched her tear-streaked face.
She cried? She cried because he kissed her?
Shen Jiheng's brow twitched, and his mind went blank for a moment. "Did I hurt you?"
He frantically searched for the cause, "Did you aggravate the wound? Let me see." As he spoke, his hand reached towards the buttons on her chest.
"Clap!" The applause was very loud.
The room was so quiet you could hear your own heartbeat.
Shen Jiheng stood there, stunned, not yet realizing that he had been hit by Han Xi!
Taking advantage of the man's dazed state, Han Xi shoved him, "Shen Jiheng, are you sick? If you're in heat, go find Gu Hanxi, don't come looking for me!"
Then, as if she had thought of something, she said with a wry smile, "Oh, right, she's pregnant and can't take care of you, so go find a prostitute! Aren't you rich?"
Han Xi kept wondering why Shen Jiheng couldn't bear to see Gu Hanxi suffer even the slightest grievance, yet was unwilling to divorce her.
But now she has a general idea.
"If you enjoy the thrill of being fought over by two women, then you don't need to come looking for me anymore! Shen Jiheng, I don't love you anymore!"
Shen Jiheng stood there as if struck by lightning. He never expected that in Han Xi's eyes, he had become this kind of person.
But when I heard her say "I don't love you anymore," my heart clenched painfully.
Something doesn't feel right.
He looked at Han Xi, his bloodshot eyes filled with resentment, "Do you no longer love me, or did you never love me at all?"
Han Xi suddenly looked at Shen Jiheng, surprised and amused by his question.
Everyone could see that she once regarded this man as a treasure, practically worshipping him on her knees!
But today, after betraying her, he denied all her affection and love.
She looked at Shen Jiheng with eyes full of disappointment, then instantly felt relieved.
That's how I made peace with myself.
Her voice was soft as she stared at the white sheets. "That's not important. What's important is that you agreed to the divorce."
"Han Xi!" Shen Jiheng felt that if he stayed here any longer, he would really kill this woman.
She can't stop talking about divorce; that's how much she wants to leave him!
