地震时怎样保护自己

Chapter 59 - 59 Are You Serious? (3)



It wasn’t until he had completely left the house, and as evening fell upon the West Mountain, when Mrs. Hao and the other servants who had waited outside for an hour finally gave up and entered, that she snapped out of her trance.

She didn’t even know how things had come to this. In the beginning, all she wanted was for him to drink less and party less. That would be beneficial to not just her, but also him. Setting aside cleanliness, hygiene, and health, a man burning himself out in his youth does no good to his body.

She may have ulterior motives, but truth be told she genuinely wanted what was best for him. Her mum still needed his $50,000 monthly support, and she too needed the facade of being Mrs. Qin. Even though they hadn’t planned to have children, she never thought of divorcing, let alone wishing ill health upon him.

The only explanations could be that she pushed him away by overstepping her boundaries or men were highly sensitive about their virility and any slight questioning of it would trigger a fiery reaction.

Qin Zhiyou’s departure had thrown her into a muddle. She had planned to revise some designs on her computer in the evening. She sat there, her fingers hovering over the keyboard for a long time, her mind blank. Just then, Xue Feifei’s timely call came to her rescue, “Don’t oversleep tomorrow morning, I’ll pick you up. We might have to stay at Hot Spring Hotel, so pack in advance. Don’t forget your swimsuit.” She added with a chuckle, “But no worries if you forget, I’ve got something more sensational for you.”

“Got it.” She hung up the phone, stretched, and let out a long sigh.

However, thinking about what Qin Zhiyou had said, that he would not divorce her, was enough for her. They had no affection for each other to begin with. She couldn’t stand playing the doting wife role and neither could Qin Zhiyou. Besides, he was a man of pride and standards. He wouldn’t be careless when going out, she must have been overthinking.

Once she figured it out, she relaxed quite a bit. She wouldn’t be home tomorrow night. Though she felt Qin Zhiyou wouldn’t care, she still kindly texted him, “I’m going out with Feifei tomorrow night and won’t be home.”

She sent the message, but there was no response for a long time.

Maybe he was still upset or he might think this was another one of her check-ins or attempts at pleasing him. Anyway, it didn’t matter, she had already informed him and could now go to have fun without worries.

At the same moment, in the VIP room of STAR.

When a WeChat message came in, Qin Zhiyou scanned it, his brows furrowed even deeper and he tossed his phone onto the couch. Yu Sixing, sitting next to him, swiftly grabbed the phone, unlocked it with face recognition and read out the message, “‘I’m going out with Xue Feifei tomorrow night and won’t be home.’ Look at that, your wife is checking up on you, she wants you to come home and answer to her will.”

Qin Zhiyou lowered his head, his lashes trembling slightly. He remained still, silent for a while, and then raised his glass and took a sip, not showing any interest in Lu Weixi’s message.

Seeing his indifferent demeanor, Yu Sixing jokingly slung his arm around his shoulder, “Exactly, I always wondered how you could ever give up the forest for a single tree. By the way, who’s this Xue Feifei? Her name rings a bell.”

Just as they were chatting, the door was suddenly opened.. He Weiyou burst in, “Guess who I just ran into! You guys would never believe it!”
