Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xia Ran rarely lost her temper at Mu Hua because he usually treated her very well. She felt like a little bird waiting to be fed. She didn't need to think about anything and just needed to be with the person she liked every day.
Now, she couldn't leave the man anymore, but he wanted to leave her.
If the man really went to pick up that woman tonight, it meant that the relationship between her and the man was slowly coming to an end.
"I won't allow you to go!" Seeing that Mu Hua was ignoring her, Xia Ran jumped off the bed angrily and went to block the door. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Mu Hua stubbornly.
She was defending her love and marriage.
However, Mu Hua was angry because of her insensitivity. "Xia Ran, have you figured out your position?! Our divorce is inevitable. The person I should have married back then was Zhu Qian. Now that she's back, you should return what doesn't belong to you to her!"
How could love and marriage be treated as something to be returned? Xia Ran couldn't understand.
She cried. "I don't want to return it. I love you. I really love you. I don't want to divorce you! If I'm pregnant with our child, are you still going to divorce me?"
"I want a divorce, but I can keep the child. I will take good care of him and give you more compensation." Mu Hua's answer broke Xia Ran's heart.
Originally, she thought that the child was her last bargaining chip. She believed that Mu Hua would definitely continue this marriage on account of the child.
In the end, he firmly declared that he didn't want a mother but a child.
Could the blissfulness after marriage be fake?
"I don't want your money. I only want to be with you!" Xia Ran replied while sobbing.
Mu Hua looked at the tears that kept falling and his heart ached. However, Zhu Qian was drunk in a messy place like a bar. If he was a step slower, she would be in danger.
"I can't do it!" After saying this, Mu Hua pushed Xia Ran's hand away and left.
Xia Ran sat on the ground and looked at the man who went downstairs. She couldn't even cry out loud and could only tremble.
She seemed to see the star that belonged to her fading away and becoming dimmer and dimmer.
Between her and Zhu Qian, the man was walking towards Zhu Qian.
The scales had already tilted, but she was still thinking of asking him to stay.
Xia Ran tried her best to stand up and return to the bed. The next second, she collapsed weakly. Her tears soaked the pillow and blanket as she sobbed silently until dawn.
At dawn, Xia Ran went to school with swollen eyes.
No matter what, her studies couldn't be delayed.
"Oh my god, Ranran, what's wrong with you?" Xu Jing was shocked to see Xia Ran.
Last night, Xia Ran said that she wanted to go home. Why was she so haggard and tired today?
Xia Ran also knew that she looked very disheveled at this moment. She found an excuse and explained, "I'm fine. I watched a very touching movie last night and cried for a long time. My eyes are swollen from crying."
"I'm really impressed. You can cry to this extent just by watching a movie. Gee, let me buy you a bottle of ice water to reduce the swelling!" Xu Jing went to buy water.
Xia Ran sat there quietly and waited.
When Xu Jing returned, not only did she bring back ice water, but she also brought back news. "Ranran, someone is looking for you downstairs. Go and take a look."
"Looking for me?" Xia Ran took the ice water and applied it to her eyes as she went downstairs.
As expected, there was a woman waiting for her by the forest path not far away. Xia Ran had yet to see her face. Just from her back view, she could confirm who this woman was.
She immediately put down the ice water, tidied up her appearance, and walked over firmly.
"You're looking for me?" Xia Ran was the first to speak when she arrived behind the woman.
The woman turned around. The moment she saw Xia Ran, jealousy flashed across her eyes.
"You're Xia Ran?" Zhu Qian was wearing a black dress and she had wavy hair. Her makeup was exquisite, and she exuded the charm of a mature woman.
As for Xia Ran, she was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans. She had a pair of small white shoes and a ponytail. She didn't wear any makeup. Although she looked a little puffy-eyed, she looked youthful and radiant.
"Yes, who are you?" Xia Ran pretended not to know Zhu Qian and her attitude was cold and distant.
"You don't know me?" Zhu Qian pretended to be surprised and extended her hand. "Hello, my name is Zhu Qian. I thought Mu Hua mentioned me to you."
She was the woman Mu Hua would marry in the future. It was impossible for him not to have mentioned it.
Mu Hua had already said that he had told Xia Ran about her existence, including his plan to marry her in the future.
Zhu Qian felt smug.
