《Ba Ai Mou Qing》 Chapter 1 First Round Hidden for two years, but on such asions as a reunion, Ji Qing found herself still nervous, her hands trembled involuntarily, in order to suppress this trembling, she could only hold her fists tightly, almost summoning the courage with her life the courage to face Feng Jin Cheng, her husband , no, that said her ex-husband now ! After all, two years ago , she had signed the divorce agreement with him , she spent nearly a decade having a crush on the man, but to maintain a year of marriage , they sparse difficult to continue, and she should have known that he does not belong to her , never , but unfortunately, she understood toote . One year of marriage while away all her expectations, she was really silly, so how can she face him, in addition to the tension as well as fear, afraid of what exactly? She did not quite understand, in addition to fear, Ji Qing felt deep down there is the slightest wisps of thoughts continuously without a break, she was thinking about him, and never stopped to do so. Feng has always been elegant , graceful , as if the British medieval aristocracy , the kind of extravagance calmly from the bones revealed to some alienation, Ji Qing crushed on him ten years , and when she was his wife for a yearter , still feels that he¡¯s peculiar or an outsider . He looked beautiful, if beautiful can describe a man, if not, she cannot think of any other adjective, in fact , at the time in the decade-long crush , Ji Qing felt inferiority in front of him, she always felt too ordinary, mundane almost cold, extraordinary as if his valet . Although beautiful, but not giving a feminine feel, very manly, very overbearing , confident, his elegance, like an overbearing wolves , especially in bed ¡­¡­ he does not love her, that is not love , Ji Qing can clearly feel , he¡¯s kind of sheer frustration on her, without a shred of love. Sometimes, Ji Qing felt like a prostitute , very cheap , sent home and lose the kind of dignity, she was very clear that he had been married to her, simply because the family pressure , as well , she is a bit useless for him , it is the harsh reality from a fantasy love her mind very far , very far. Zi Qin said she had a naive silly side , and how can she believe this world as well as love, even if there is , they do not belong to earthly men and women, if she had said , her heart also existed any hope at the moment that shepletely wake up . ¡°Xiao Ji, this is Feng , we have the foreign goods, was thanks to Feng sessfully helping us ,e,e, you respect the Feng with a cup , since there are many opportunities for cooperation Feng Ji Cheng, this ourpany¡¯s assistant Xiao Ji ,ter also please take care ¡­¡­ ¡± ¡°Ji?¡± Jin Cheng eyes were cold, but the moment faded away. An asion like this finally came, Jin Cheng clenched his teeth, floating his gaze across to Ji Qing, very unhappy seeing this little woman doing not so bad, maybe even better, she seems a little more fuller,pared to the before she was skinny , now she emits more feminine charm. Really, to marry her , but had also yielded nothing , anyway, that time , it was due to the family arrangements, the endless nagging, multiple wives to be for Feng Jin Cheng to choose from, there¡¯s no difference , Feng Jin Cheng isn¡¯t good at advocating, since she married him , he would not hesitate. That evening, she, her reaction, until now, Jin Cheng still remembers her in his arms, sentimental¡­ ¡­ head aching, sweat beading down, two slender arms tightly hugging him, biting his lips, muffled moans from the squeeze between teeth, tucked in his ears, letting him have the pleasure of an abuse ¡­ ¡­ Even so, young thin body, her reactions to him with no skills, he won the meeting, her whole being sunken in his arms, she¡¯s more like a little rabbit, so cute, so lovely ¡­ ¡­ she is such, in his view, a cute, cute Bunny, then suddenly left a note for divorce and ran awaypletely. When he began to be serious, when he began to care about her ¡­ ¡­ Jin Cheng can¡¯t help but grit his teeth, until now, he did not even figure out the reason, he did not think his ount due to the outside influence, in fact, in thetter stage he treated her so well in the outside, he just wanted to hold his little bunny toofortable carry on with a quiet life. Unfortunately after afortable few days, the small rabbit ran away, two yearster, they suddenly meet each other, really made ??him hate this, Jin Cheng¡¯s eyes flickered, elegant hands lifted the ss: ¡°Miss Ji , your surname really rare, beautiful people , I will toast first ¡± he drank up his ss of wine, after it was left dry, he took the empty cup and looked at her . Ji Qing¡¯s face turned pale, this entertaining asions, Ji Qing rarely participates, she had to apany her boss , as the secretary was on leave, she was the financial assistant , she was pulled to make a toast with the wine ¡­¡­ Ji Qing looked at her hand holding the ss , looked straight at Jin Cheng¡¯s nce, suddenlye to understand that this man would not let her go, feeling the depths of his eyes, alienated , revealing little light , ah ! She tried to keep a dignified face, even after the divorce, how can she be put forward, this is simply heinous. Ji Qing pulled a slight smile, lips moistened, Ji Qing raised her ss, joked: ¡°Things in the past too, after Feng requested a lot of photos of Buddha,¡± a toast, drank all the wine, very refreshing. Jin Cheng smile was sluggish, his predatory look fell on Ji Qing , a good long while before her stunned eyes meeting his, sitting on the seat, twisting with the person next to her to speak, Ji Qing was put on the spot . Ji Qing slightly smile, then put the ss down , whispers sorry , got out into the corridor at the end of the toilet , lying on the toilet , sp her throat to spit out the wine , even spitting it out , she still clearly felt her back began to itch , scratching a few times, it¡¯s useless , getting itchier. She opened the faucet with cold water and washed her face, cold water to her face, feeling her head a little dizzy, she picked up the phone to call her boss apologizing, she was not kidding, and he immediately agreed that she can go home first. Ji Qing strongly endured the itch on her back, she went out, severe allergy symptoms , which makes her a little dizzy , sitting outside the toilet she did not pay attention to Jin Cheng suddenly he grabbed her hand and dragged her out ¡­¡­ Ji Qing did not seed in a couple of efforts to break away , he grabbed her tightly, disregarding dragging her forward , only turning back to peer at her, Ji Qing will not dare to resist, even though he dragged her, all the way to out of the hotel . A hotel , Ji Qing involuntarily shuddered , then remembered she did not bring her coat , winter winds blew across her body , with bone biting cold , Ji Qing pulled back a bit : ¡°I , my coat is inside ¡­ ¡­ ¡± Feng Jin Cheng swept back at her , the impression that she never wore such clothes , thin white shirt , wrapped around her upper body , between a few buttons opened at the cor , tied with a scarf draping down, with the wind drifts on her ck skirt, below her feet stepping on a seven centimeter heels, such a height , he stands over her more than half a head, she had changed a lot ,pared to the past , now looking more like an independent career woman, not to Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s liking . Feng Jincheng frowned, took off his cashmere coat and put it on her, wrapping his arm firmly around her, leading her to the parking lot and a half. Feng Jin Cheng opened the front passenger door, whispered imperatively: ¡°Get in the car!¡± Ji Qing stood motionless with her head down biting her lip, this negative resistance, he felt his anger building up, lifted her ??chin forcefully: ¡°I said get in the car, did you not hear? Ah? ¡± Ji Qing bit down on her lip, a good long while passed before she whispered: ¡°We have divorced ¡­¡­ ¡± She didn¡¯t finish, cut up by Jin Cheng, throwing her into the car, mmed the car door, firmly going around the car, start, a loud humming sound, the car jumps rushes out, the momentum is toorge, Ji Qing didn¡¯t have time to buckle her seat belt, thrown forward, she digs her fingers in the railing above, fortunately she didn¡¯t get hit. Just struggling revolt , has spent all of Ji Qing¡¯s guts , at this moment she was really afraid of him , not even daring to look at him , she was always timid as a mouse , at this moment in particr , she really did not want to get involved with Feng Jin Cheng. Just that moment , Feng Jin Cheng almost strangled the woman on impulse, she dared mention the divorce thing with him , two years had gone, the nerves of her , and he had sworn , as long as she lives she should not appear before him, now she just shows up, bringing back their past ounts together. Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s heart filled up with hate, the veins in his forehead popping out, Ji Qing had no desire to be afraid, outside it¡¯s cold, not feeling at the moment the hot ambient in the car, she felt her itchy back, she was about to scratch, Feng Jin Cheng pped her hand down hard, and her hands felt little numb: ¡°If you dare to scratch , I¡¯ll chop your paws ¡­¡­ ¡± Car hit a diagonal stop Ji Qing found outside the window is the people¡¯s Hospital, still came, just picked up directly by Jincheng, Ah ¡­ ¡­ Suddenly vacant, Ji Qing could not help but cry, knee-jerk around his neck, Jincheng has held her and went in. The car stopped diagonally, Ji Qing saw through the window it is the People¡¯s Hospital, she had not recovered from her shock, when Feng Jin Cheng suddenly lifted her up , ah ¡­¡­ suddenly she felt empty, Ji Qing could not help but cry, unconsciously wrapping her arms around his neck , Feng Jin carried her inside. Ji Qing suddenly felt it was so wrong, tried to resist: ¡°You, you put me down, I will¡­¡­ ¡°Feng Jin Cheng slightly stopped walking , looked down at her: ¡°You move again , believe it or not I will throw you out . ¡± Ji Qing is absolutely sure, Feng Jin Cheng will do it, this man never acts recklessly, and what a moment for her pity ¡­¡­ patient registration, doctor, payments, medication infusion ¡­¡­ sitting room, looking at Ji Qing arm with needles sticking in, she sighed slightly, not far from the next window over there , he is on the phone . Slightly sideways , half of his face hidden in the shadows, but he was already making a handsome profile, more profound , with the usual stance, looking like a jade, she remembered when she first met him exactly like it was yesterday ¡­¡­ Chapter 2 Round Two Ji Qing¡¯s parents separated when she was a child, Ji Qing lived with her mother, and she was just a freshman when her Mom died of pancreatic cancer, aged 16, Ji Qing, returned to the Ji Family to live. Papa Ji Cheng had married again, Ji Cheng has been doing well for years, when Ji Qing returned to Ji Family, Ji Cheng has served in the Ministry ofnd and resources, and the small courtyard in her memory had be a single-family house. Zhang Yan, Ji Qing stepmom is an Opera singer, not well known, Ji Qing does not understand, so she doesn¡¯t know, only when first entering into The Ji Family house, in the living room there is a huge publicity art scene, looks like some fame. Stepmother, Zhang Yan to her was not good or bad, just being polite, without a sense of belonging and subconsciously feeling that was not her home, her home was with Mom in the little humble apartment, that bond between mother and daughter was warm. With The Ji Family, Ji Qing is aplete stranger, Dad is always busy, every day endlessly, even for just socializing, afterall Ji Qing was just the ex-wife¡¯s daughter, despite the father¡¯s guilt, but she was just a burden. Ji Qing felt that she in the eyes of the father is a burden, even though they are blood rted, given the choice, her father would never have taken her in. Then Ji Qing fell into a rebellious phase, encountering such aplicated family environment, starting to be less and less obedient, skipping school, getting into trouble, and when there¡¯s trouble ¡­ ¡­ and something happens to her, it was never father, nor is the stepmother, but her Father¡¯s Office Secretary that came for her. Theck of spiritual affection, but more than enough material things, her stepmother was very generous with the monthly allowance, it was almost the amount of a month of living expenses with herte mother, having enough money, they only showered her with it, but she felt that this was a psychological rejection. Stepmother thought her problem was not severe, but always bringing it up, Ji Qing became hypersensitive, 16 year old girls to change for the better is a bit difficult, but it was overwhelmingly easy to get together, skipping school, smoking, drinking ¡­ ¡­ The Ji Qing today is very different from before. She didn¡¯tpletely messed up her life, the one who put her back down the right path and was Feng Jin Cheng, he probably doesn¡¯t even know how big was his effect on her. She was just sitting there being bored, when Jin Cheng with a group of people came in, Ji Qing just like any other girls also liked guys, especially the one more beautiful than the four other men, and charismatic. Ji Qing noted, Feng, because he had impably beautiful features, and also have that kind of elegance in every waking moment, walked to the front with the band ying a piece of music on the saxophone, elegant and shiny, stood in the front of the stage, as one of the brightest stars in the night sky, in the perspective of Ji Qing, she can look up at him. Suddenly in a second, suddenlynded besides her, taking the ss from her hand, look in her eyes and patted her on the forehead: ¡°little girl go home early, you don¡¯t belong here,e back when you have grown up¡­¡­¡± Feng Jin Cheng never thought about it, one of the few times fascinating a young woman, Ji Qing tasted love for the first time, for the first time when Feng Jin Cheng was near her, her heart was beating like a drum, she acted nervously when she saw him, feeling like she wasing down with a fever, her head finally understood the symptoms, repeatedly reminded she, she liked this men¡­¡­ If two people were not meant to be, perhaps crush Ji Qing also won¡¯tst long, so, the fate of men and women was a decisive factor, could lead a life of mishaps. A few dayster, Ji Qing saw Feng Jin Cheng at the house, Ji Qing knew then, Jincheng¡¯s father wass her dad¡¯s former boss, Jin Cheng¡¯s mother is a Peking Opera fan, she used to visit mother Zhang Yan¡¯s performance, over the years they were not close, but never broke contact. Jincheng apparently didn¡¯t recognize her, he is more beautiful in the daytime, the kind of nice that is dazzling, Ji Qing stood at his side cannot help but feel small, Ji Qing interest in Jin Cheng, and also identally learned stepmother¡¯s enthusiasm. She is an enthusiastic person, convincing his Mom about her sister, wanting Jin Cheng to meet her. Zhang Yan was young, her youngest sister was, Feng¡¯s age, her goal was very clear, is trying to set her sister up. Zhang Yan¡¯s sister was in an excellent and renowned University studying journalism, tall and beautiful, has a dazzling beauty better than Ji Qing, but Feng has been around beauties too much, Zhang Yan¡¯s sister is beautiful, but not for the eyes of Jin Cheng. Zhang Yan attempts to line the marriage didn¡¯t seed, but it virtually stimted Ji Qing, she suddenly realized the gap between her and Feng Jin Cheng, a huge gap, making her wanting to be excellent woman, then Ji Qing secretly wanted to marry Feng Jin Cheng, just wanted the distance shortened, unrequited love in the mind of girls are always difficult understands¡­¡­¡­.. She went back to be good child again, a model student, when she graduated from high school, she got admitted to prestigious university. The sound of a cellphone pulled Ji Qing back from the distant memories, she turned slightly her sore neck, to realise herself being silly watching him for a long, long time, he is still standing at the window, talking on the phone ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing eyes slightly dimed, he was always so busy, when they first got married, half a month they never saw each othe, Ji Qing reached for her phone in the bag, with one hand it was harder, the other arm just hanging down connected to the IV, suddenly a pair ofrge hands held her bag ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing looked up, Feng Jin Cheng with a frown swept his hand into her bag then handed her the phone. :¡­.¡±thanks¡­¡­¡± Ji Qing said in a low voice, but in open of infusion room it is exceptionally clear, Ji Qing¡¯ s eyes swept phone screen, can¡¯t help but feeling stunned then hesitated¡­¡­ She hesitated, Feng wonders, his eyes shed across the screen, but couldn¡¯t see, she has briefly pressed the reject key, Jin Cheng lifted his eyebrow: ¡°who?¡± Why don¡¯t you answer the phone?¡± Suddenly, Ji Qing¡¯s phone rang again. Ji Qing before able to hang up, the cell phone turned into Feng¡¯s hand, he stared at her, press the answer key and said, ¡°Hello, who is this?¡± Ji Qing subconsciously grabbed her tight skirt, unblinking looking at him ¡­ ¡­ ¡°Hey, who is this?¡± Feng repeatedly asked loudly, then heard a hang and beep of a busy signal. They were standing very close, the sound on the phone, Ji Qing also can hear everything, almost immediately took over the phone: ¡°mine, my phone, what are you doing?¡± She stared daringly back at Feng¡¯s eyes, suddenly slender fingers pinched her chin up, Ji Qing feeling slightly panic when she swept his eyes, blinked rapidly lowered her eyes, her evasive attitude that she always had ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Jin Cheng knows everything about Ji Qing¡¯s face, the monk told him that two years of hard living are inseparable, after his wife ran away, as if he was possessed, and in those two years, almost every night and every day, he could envision, his wife smiles, every facial expression, every eye, each a smile ¡­ ¡­ So much each time passed by, Jin Cheng found the timid wife living in his memory, so vivid expressions, guilty, afraid to tell him in the eye, when lying, eye lids will flutter, sick, faint whines, it¡¯s killing him ¡­ ¡­ Feng saw some faint red across her cheek andnded on her lips, a slight touch of pink, and the taste of it ¡­ ¡­ Without warning, Jin Cheng swooped in, her eyes soft and lustrous ¡­ ¡­ Chapter 3 Sweet and warm, familiar feeling the drilling from the lips of the mouth, through the oral cavity ring-down into theirs, Jin Cheng knows what he thinks about this woman ¡­ ¡­ He almost greedily sucked in such a long absence of taste, as if a thirsty traveler in the desert, diving in, like a clearke in the oasis¡­ ¡­ But unfortunately there wasn¡¯t long aftertaste, exactly to say, but one moment, he was again interrupted by a ringing ringtone. Jingle bells sound, not only broke a Jin Cheng¡¯s act, but also pulled out from the myth Ji Qing, her face was flushed, and small hand haste to push the man in front of her, after discovery of foresight, his influence, still so great that, when he was near, she didn¡¯t resist in any way. Ji Qing is clear that she has an absolute disadvantage, their marriage , her love, with no relevance , and her feelings for Jin cheng, maybe is fundamental non-existent of stuff, she moves her eyes to view an Idol drama passing on the screen, even though Feng Jin Cheng saw this, out of politeness he didn¡¯t say anything, only giving her an unconceivable look in his eyes. Sometimes ncing on the TV screen, coincides with sad teary drama, finally frowned said loudly: ¡°watching TV is for entertainment and fun, not like you, to tear yourself out, has lost its fun, does not look good. ¡°A loud snap, picked up the remote control to turn it off. Ji Qing remembers, she was looking at him a little bit taken aback, but couldn¡¯t find any sentence to refute, this guy is too rational, too rational, always taking a detached position, measure everything out. Zhi Qin told her that to her he was extremely boring. This guy is really not romantic, nor affectionate, but she loves him, facing him after two years, she continued to have no chance. Ji Qing stood up and pushed the infusion bottle pole aside, moving a few steps before she picked up the phone and said, ¡°Hello, aunt Guo ¡­ ¡­ It¡¯s me, Ji Qing ¡­ ¡­ ¡± The person on the other side seemed relieved, hastily: ¡°Xiao JI Ah! I think you dialed the wrong number, a male voice ¡­ ¡­ ¡± ¡°Well ¡­ ¡­ it was my colleagues ¡­ ¡­ ¡°Ji Qing said. Aunt Guoughed loudly: ¡°I know, I know, aunt actually told you, you are so young and pretty, you should have someone to share the burden ¡­ ¡­¡± ¡°Aunt, was calling? What¡¯s going on now? ¡°Ji Qing tightly clutching the phone asked softly. ¡°No, no, I say you, my nephew is going to get married, I go back home for a visit, and will be back in two days, light snow here¡­¡­¡± ¡°Oh! ¡°Ji Qing said:¡± You go home! I will arrange everything, huh! Well ¡­ ¡­ Thank you¡­¡­ Good bye ¡­ ..¡±Ji Qing hang up the phone, turn around, finding Feng sitting in her chair, staring at her, eyes cold and pale, Ji Qing involuntarily held her arm, walking over to the nurses ¡® station, the IV needle was hanging loose. Nurse was a rookie, nervous with the needle, made her feel some pain, but she just had to bare the pain and it¡¯ll be over, putting the needle properly, Ji Qing looks back at Jincheng. Ji Qing keeping the phonepletelying back down to Earth, she and Jin Cheng, now no longer have to be involved, if he finds out ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing involuntarily shivered, this man for her is untouchable, Ji Qing is very self-conscious and she knew ell that he didn¡¯t love her, and that their marriage was a dead end. Jin Cheng has been wondering who was on the phone? Or should I say, what business did this person have to do with his wife? Ji Qing, Jincheng thinks he knows, had agreed to marry, but also because looking at this simple little woman¡¯s nature, maybe because he was used to seeing heavily make-uppedplicated women, he thought his wife was a simple woman, he has no peace at home. His father-inw¡¯s family rtionship is somewhatplicated, but his wife¡¯s life was extremely simple, simple yet kind of scandalous, her best friend and ssmate, Zi Qin, for a guy who is not too important, Jincheng always chose to ignore, and even his wife¡¯s girlfriends, too. He only saw them one or two times, even can¡¯t remember their names, because it is a bit rare, obviously, is certainly not a call from Zi Qin, if it was, she didn¡¯t have to sneak around ¡­ ¡­ Jin Cheng felt wronged, remembering that from reunion to now, it was just several hours ago, Feng Jin Cheng only suddenly realized, between him and his wife, they had been separated for two years, some things, he does not knows of, this made Jin Cheng very upset. Jin Cheng took the coat, walked past, Ji Qing feeling sensitive, the nurse giving her an injection, avoiding his eyes, holding a big book pretending to read, Ji Qing thought about herself. Eyes fell on to the striding man, handsome profile, upright posture. Wearing white shirt, wrapped around his strong upper body, his tie had been removed, several buttons opened, removing a bit prim and precise, more of an unruly charm, sexy, very attractive Ji Qing decided not to talk to him, feeling embarrassed of what happened, kissing in a ce like this, forgetting that this is a hospital, apart from them, there¡¯s couple of transfusion patients, and nurses ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing deliberately choosing to ignore him with her head down, she can feel those eyes judging her ¡­ ¡­ Leaving the infusion room, Ji Qing walked extremely fast, but because of her short legs, she took two steps, Feng can catch up with one, therefore, from the door of the emergency room when she was a little out of breath, Jin Cheng still strolling, followed behind her. It was already 11 o¡¯clock at night, and winter nights, cold wind blowing through, a little chilly, she can see dim spots of light in the distance, and the lights in some deserted streets. Looking around it looked to her like B City, it feels like the same city, same noise, but it was as silent night, hazy, but the city is immense, but this is not B, it is T City, near B, but it is another city. She chose to stay here, Ji Qing did not know why, this is the ce where her mother was born, it is where her parents used to study, mom and dad here, had a romantic old encounter in the rain, mother didn¡¯t bring an umbre, dad just stopping by, lent the umbre to mom, then naturally became lovers. Thought they were in love, but two people who love each other, but divorced when she was five years old, although the hard love life, it was the most beautiful unforgettable memories. Ji Qing sometimes think, he mom is probably loved her father, but her mother¡¯s self-esteem did not allow her to hold on to the man she loved, following after him, this was her mother, behaved herself like a stupid woman. Having her parents as an example, Ji Qing never thought that her marriage wouldst forever, she wasn¡¯t a refined beautiful woman, and he could always have someone better than her. Jin Cheng wrapped his cashmere coat over her body, the coat covered her up to her ankle, an entire person wrapped in a dark overcoat, made her seem more petite. Feng sighed lightly, suddenly found himself weak in the sight of this woman ¡­ ¡­ This cuddly littledy looks better than two years ago, the kind of cowardice, summon the courage to face his appearance, particrly his heart. Jin Cheng had never made much sense of it, he was a lost man, to his wife and son, and he can¡¯t keep a hard heart. As the saying goes, a hero bes a prisoner to beauty, although she cannot be considered a beautiful young married woman, she continues to make life difficult, what? She won¡¯t run away again, he wouldn¡¯t give her a second chance, don¡¯t even think about divorce, that damn agreement, was burnt to ashes by him thrown in the firece. So, no matter what she thinks, she is the wife of Feng Jin Cheng. Chapter 4 Ji Qing¡¯s head slightly dropped. Of course now that they had been reunited, Jin Cheng has to take her home. Although it has not been made clear why she hid from him, he should let bygones be bygones. So when Ji Qing opened the car door, he was slightly stunned for a moment, then looked at her frowning. Ji Qing stares at him for a moment, turning her head to say: ¡°thank you for taking me to the hospital, we know ¡­ ¡­ well ¡­ ¡­ It¡¯ste and I should go home, well, goodbye ¡­ ¡­ ¡± Stammering to express her meaning, regardless of Jin Cheng¡¯s stunned reaction, she quickly brushed away his coat, opened the door, and got out, a coherent set of actions very swiftly, to have better effect. Jin Cheng pursed her lips, his eyes narrowed, this women is challenging his limits. Jin Cheng felt realization for the first time, is not one¡¯s own delusions, two yearster his wife has changed a lot. Watching the little figure walking away, Jin Cheng hardly contain his anger. He was wrong, this littledy doesn¡¯t seem to quit, he¡¯ll just have to hold it in, he started driving¡­¡­ Ji Qing rushed on the road, ready to stop a passing taxi, the streets unusually cold on winter nights, not to mention quiet, there are not many cars passing by. Ji Qing trembling and shivering in the cold for a long time, she never saw the shadow of a taxi, in the corner of her eye, she can spot Jin Cheng. BMW seven series cars are rare, especially in the streette at night, and a charming man, smoking in the car, it¡¯s hard to ignore. His addiction is obvious, but also at home as he smoked cigars, thick, thick aroma of contamination in his possession, haunting every time when he hugged her, and in his arms, she could always smell the tobo, and wasn¡¯t a regr cigarette smoke oil smell, it smelled good. Then thinking back Ji Qing felt that maybe it¡¯s because of the beholder, and she has had a crush on him for years, and his shorings are all advantages. When she can think clearly, she realized that the woman who lovedthe man was a fool, totally fucking idiot ¡­¡­ Jin Cheng stubbed the cigarette in his hand, this woman does not look as weak as a rabbit, she¡¯s obstinate, get into arguments with him, and has a little temper. In two years of married life, she remained silent more often than not, easygoing, silent. She did not work and he wouldn¡¯t let her go to work; he didn¡¯t think it was necessary. She had fought trying to talk to him into it for a while, saying that she spent four years in College, if she had worked for bigpanies for a few years, she would have been promoted, and so on ¡­ ¡­ He frowned, directly rejected the idea. He said: ¡°The wife of Jin Cheng, can¡¯t wait on other people!¡± Staying at home as full-time homemaker, in Jin Cheng¡¯s view, it¡¯s beautiful to stay at home, reading, painting, gardening, tending flowers, when feeling bored then go out shopping. Until now, he thinks his own point of view is right, but his wife apparently didn¡¯t think so. So she¡¯s not happy, truth be said, in the beginning Jin Cheng really didn¡¯t think there was a difference between being married and being single except for the existence of silent small woman, she was too silent. When they just got married, they lived outside of the city in a vi. Within the big vi, she always found a corner to stay in. She most always likely was in a daze thinking of what, Jin Cheng didn¡¯t know, because she always lowered her head with hands holding a book, sometimes half sitting, statue-like. She can cook, she¡¯s not great but not too bad either, he has always been ustomed to demanding good food, but above all it was the love that she put into it that made it delicious. Feng Jin Cheng began to suspect that she did not marry him willingly, she would act cold towards him, butter would timidly epted, that afterwards involuntarily responded, her slim small arm circling his neck, with closed eyes, enjoying his deep kiss¡­¡­ She felt so good, he rarely kissed a woman on her lips, not even when he¡¯s in bed, their lips rarely touched.He doesn¡¯t like the idea of being stained by a woman¡¯s lipstick, luckily Ji Qing was clean, even when at home; except for her self-grooming routine, she hardly uses makeup. She also doesn¡¯t like perfume; he bought her several bottles, it just stays there on her dresser. No perfume, she has a delicate sent of milk blended with soap, much like a child, she has a habit of drinking milk at night, when he held her, the smell brought sensations from the past, the illusion that he does not understand ¡­ ¡­ Jin Cheng has not stepped forward, but had no intention of leaving, and he just looked at her. Ji Qing felt her hair standing all over, she knew this man is not an easy man, in fact, his overbearingness is almost unreasonable, being strong and dominant, especially for what he considers to be his, his wife. Ji Qing hid from him but also because of this, she doesn¡¯t want to take his anger.Actually, he never actually scolded her, only once when they were married, when she insisted to go to work, most of the time, Ji Qing never spoke out to this guy, he¡¯s always standing there, looking down at her, as if he was a deity, and she was the crowd of ants. In these two years she was trying not to think about him, other than looking for a job, she didn¡¯t even watch the news, she was subconsciously avoiding everything rted to her past. Zi Qin said she was running away, in addition to escaping, she couldn¡¯t think of another way to do it. When she found out that she was pregnant, she was aware that in her belly a small life was created, in a twist of fate, a child, his child, belonging to Jin Cheng and her. Like any other woman in love with a man, this was the greatest of all wishes, to have his healthy children who look like him and carry his genes. That was the happiest thing that could happen. Ji Qing then did not allow herself to be carried away, she decided to test him, their routine was beginning to change from when they were first married, Jin Cheng woulde home every day, dined , he would hold her on the sofa while watching TV, although not watching her favorite drama series, but the news she always thought it to be boring.10:30 was the bed time, usually at around 10 o¡¯clock, he carry her into bathroom, Ji Qing didn¡¯t remember from when did he start to like to help her bathe, she started to feel an addiction to it, it¡¯s hard to believe that towards the end of the marriage, he got bored of it. Certainly, each bath session was not simple, usually in his big Jacuzzi, he would carry her out when she had felt rxed, he would take a big towel and wrapped her in it, put her on the bed , and does not let her fall asleep, but will patiently kiss her, kiss her forehead , eyes, lips, neck, ears , corbone ¡­¡­ His urges were strong, even when they were just married, he was rarely home, when he was at home, he would bring her to the bed for a night of passionate love. When she woke up, he was already not around, usually Ji Qing would think that she had an erotic dream, but can these dream left marks on her body. The first night he started off rather gently, she felt like she was being ripped apart, if not for his support, she probably couldn¡¯tst ¡­ ¡­ Then she gradually got used to it, and lost all resistance. Speaking of shame, just in the infusion roomwhen he kissed her, she can¡¯t hold the light quivering with heartbeats so rapid and panic, just like when he kissed her for the first time¡­¡­ Ji Qing does not understand, what does Jin Cheng want from her? In Ji Qing¡¯s perception, this man would never be a woman stalker, he¡¯s too proud. What does she have? No beauty, not body, no family history, almost nothing, and children are not his favorite thing. He told her: ¡°Kids are really troublesome, if we didn¡¯t have any, our lives will remain this way ¡°. When he had said these word, they were sunbathing on the patio on the rocking chair, it was early winter, warm sunshine fell on Ji Qing, but she began to feel a chill in her heart. This guy is not a sentimental person, bluntly said that he doesn¡¯t like children, and that they will never have children. Her mood instantly hit rock bottom, bad thoughts passed through her mind, her dad and stepmom pointing at her calling her ungrateful, Jin Cheng treatment towards her, so early in pregnancy when she almost copsed. She was weak. Without a female friend to confide, every time she met difficulties, she would escape, so she ran, she ran for two years, but now she is forced to confront it? Ji Qing suddenly found thatpared with two years ago, now she has more courage, not to confront, but to defend, defend her quiet life now, defending her little daughter, Xiao Xue was everything to her, she doesn¡¯t want her to be hurt in any way, not even by her biological father who never wanted her¡­¡­¡­ Chapter 5 Finally an empty car came from the distance, Ji Qing halted it when it reached in front of her. Ji Qing¡¯s hand held the door handle, it opened, suddenly two big hands pushed the door shut, Jin Cheng waved to the driver who was inside, he let go of the door, dragging the submissive Ji Qing behind him, he walked to the front of his car, briskly opened door, and with the same strength, threw her inside the car. Jin Cheng sat in the car, looked at her, her head leaned sideways, Ji Qing shrank her body, almost sticking to the door, trying to open the door, but to no avail, two people in such a confined space, Ji Qing clearly felt, Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s angry ze. ¡°What do you mean? ¡°Jin Cheng hissed. Ji Qing¡¯s heart pounded but deep inside she is aware that one day she will have toe face to face with this problem, trying to escape wouldn¡¯t solve anything. With this in mind, Ji Qing found the courage to look up, looking into Jin Cheng¡¯s eyes, not hiding anymore: ¡°well, Jin Cheng, we are divorced ¡­ ¡­ it¡¯s been two years ¡­ and ¡­ ¡°. Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s eyes became cloudy, from the moment they met earlier, she repeatedly brought up the divorce. Feng Jin Cheng couldn¡¯t help to feel extremely upset, he considers himself very lenient, regardless of what happened two years ago, he did not intend to bring up the problem, but this woman, keeps on pushing him to his limits. Feng Jin Cheng bit his lip, his brows furrowed, sitting up straight, he took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it, he inhaled lightly: ¡°if I didn¡¯t remember wrongly, a divorce needs consent from both sides, or at least the spouse to agree verbally, I only remember the marriage registration, but divorce? Howe I have no impression of it? ¡± Ji Qing was stunned, she had imagined this so many times before, maybe will run into each other, maybe in some secluded corner, perhaps in the chaotic bustle of people, perhaps passing each other, and maybe exchanging bows, but she never imagined this type of situation. Ji Qing believed that since she left the divorce paper, Jin Cheng¡¯s pride would make him sign the papers right away, he might feel somewhat troubled but she never imagined him missing a woman;dies will line up just to be with him, he was often rumored to be involved with celebrities and upper ssdies. As newlyweds, Ji Qing felt inferior; Jin Cheng¡¯s family was well off, their business was doing well, part of the higher society, the women that surrounded him were from that level. then, Back then, Ji Qing with her love was so humble, so humble almost invisible, she used to be alone at home, sometimes he would spend long periods away from home, she still couldn¡¯t manage to suppress the foul mood. When a woman really loves a men, she can¡¯t help but be jealous, but Ji Qing was afraid to show her jealousy. She couldn¡¯t even show her unhappiness, afraid that it would ruin the mood. Feeling contradictions and tangled, Ji Qing pulled herself through. Later for some unknown reasons, these gossip gradually disappear from cirction, if not identally the news of their marriage leaked out. She thought Jin Cheng was already bored with her, perhaps, he was with her for her father¡¯s sake. Later, when her farther started tomit offenses, he disappeared from home for a few days and nights in a row, she guessed, maybe he is hiding from her, afraid of this Ji family¡¯s son-inw status, and that she would want him to help his father-inw ¡­ Actually, thinking more about it, Ji Qing felt self-conscious, she did not want to take advantage of things, her fathermitted errors, vited national policy, wronged the justice sector, had been disciplined, not to be indifferent, but this thing, she too understood, there¡¯s no use hiding it, people will eventually know. Jin Cheng is the son-inw of the Ji family, the son-inw, he was neverfortable with it in the first ce, to put it bluntly, the elders were hard on him, so Ji Qing won¡¯t bother him with her father¡¯s problem, and their marriage, had also lost thest link. Just remembering those days, Ji Qing remembered the good times and couldn¡¯t help but wanting to go back. Actually, she really dide back once, she just reached the door when she saw him getting into his car, she then jumped from the scare, hurriedly blended into the crowd. With a buldging belly, she looked on to see him driving away with a beautiful woman, she hid in the corner, cowering, feeling silly¡­¡­ Then Ji Qing¡¯s face lit up opening her speech: ¡°the Marriage Act stiptes that couples separated for more than two years can automatically divorce without going through judgment, and we seem to have more than two years, so¡­¡­.¡± She did not finish, Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s look frightened her, her voice faded, then just a whisper, and finally bowed her head, angry at herself for being timid, but this man looks really scary, Ji Qing who did not have much courage, deted immediately . Jin Cheng wanted to w through Ji Qing¡¯s chest and take a look at her and see what she really wants, what her heart really wants. He didn¡¯t care, she was obsessed with divorcing him, still insisting. Like it or not, she was married to him, so there is no way that he will let her get away with it. So, she wants to talk about marriagew with him? Good! He¡¯s in, Jin Cheng put on a slightly ironic smile: ¡°The Marriage act says that couples living apart for more than two years, the Court can deem it as a condition of an emotional break up, provided that either party sues for a divorce. So you mean you are going to sue me? You want to bring me to court? Huh? ¡± Ji Qing bowed her head and bit her lips not to speak, she is clear that she would never out debate him, he has always been clear headed andmunicate in a structured and clearly manner, he was less pretentious, against she such a small woman, and she also didn¡¯t want to waste her breath, she kept silent, anyway in her heart, they are not a couple, between her and Feng Jin Cheng, there is no rtionship. Feng Jin Cheng would not allow her to escape into her silence, he reached down and pinched her chin lightly but with anger, Ji Qing feeling the sting, but also gave submissive revolt, he lifted her face, he stared directly into his prey¡¯s eyes ¡­ ¡­. ¡°Speak! ¡°The murky sound of his voice, as if trying to hold his anger:¡± you wanted to sue me for a divorce? ¡± Ji Qing suddenly felt weak, closed her eyes and started thinking out loud: ¡°I think we need to go through with the divorce, OK, we can do it at a time that is good for you, and we can go to the civil administration office for the procedures¡­¡­.¡± Jin Cheng suddenly hit his fist on the steering wheel, ring the horns, scaring the living daylights out of Ji Qing, Jin Cheng volts on the steering wheel, then yelled: ¡°Get out! Get out, now! Immediately, get ¡­ ¡­ ¡°. Without a word, in fear of hostility Ji Qing virtually opened the door and quickly jumped out, panicked and fled. Jin Cheng just watched her, she acted as if a ghost was chasing behind her, running away with all her might. Feng Jin Cheng gradually released his clench, his chest felt as if it would burst out of anger, Feng Jin Cheng has never thought that she would be so obsessed to get away from him, and so intense to be free from him, two years ago she never even told him that she regretted marrying him, she just disappeared without a trace¡­ Feng Jin Cheng was feeling really bad, what an unscrupulous woman, after he had calmed down, he looked at the clock, it was 12:00AM, veryte, it¡¯s not safe for a woman to be out alone, and it¡¯s so cold out there. Such concerns weigh on the heart, Jin Cheng won¡¯t sit still, and started the car, driving down the road for a while, and he saw her standing in the sidewalk. ¡­ Her thin slender figure was shivering in the cold, Jin Cheng clenched his teeth, and somewhat feeling distressed, but he remembered again, how she was insistent to an appalling degree. He followed her from a distance, watched her reach her rented house, the taxi stopped at the entrance of a smallplex, she got off and went in¡­ Jin Cheng parked beside a bus, through the car window looked at thisplex, it is small, only a few blocks away from the door, almost at a nce, it was one of those multi residential building, fairly decent. Jin Cheng watched her disappear into a hole in the left side of the building, going up, getting off, leaning on the bar, looked up at the small windows between floors, one by one the corridormp lit up, and stopped at the fifth floor, and then a window on the left lit up. id curtains reflected a familiar silhouette, Feng Jin Cheng sighed, turns to enter the car, took another nce at the building¡¯s fifth floor, in the now lit windows, he saw Ji Qing¡¯s figure holding a baby ¡­ ¡­. Chapter 6 Ji Qing had just opened the door, when she saw Aunt Guo holding Xiao Xue in living room pacing back and forth whispering coaxing words to the little girl, Ji Qing jumped up with a scare. Xiao Xue was born a month premature, she weighed a little more than four pounds. She spent the first half month of her life in an incubator, she had a small face, small body, and her breathing was so weak, like a weak little kitten. She hardly produced any milk, it wasn¡¯t good enough to nurse her daughter back to health, poor milk quality, little girl often did not have enough to eat, her weak little voice crying, often falling asleep with a bottle, sleeping and sobbing intermittently. She only got better after three months. When she was six months, she had bronchitis, her little head stuck with needles, Ji Qing¡¯s heart stirred with pain, holding her all night, rocking, coaxing. Every time the child would make a fuss, she had to hold her and coax her. Usually this time, the child would be already asleep, she looked ufortable being held like that. Ji Qing put down her things and came up.Seeing her daughter¡¯s small face, half hidden in Aunt Guo arms, her eyes gently closed with crystal clear tears hanging on her longshes, breathing through her mouth, poor little thing. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±Ji Qing rushed to wash her hand and asked with a whispering tone, Aunt Guo shook her head: ¡°Nothing, today she had her vination, there was some side effects, a low-grade fever, I asked the doctor, he said this is a normal reaction, she needs to drink a lot of water, Xiao Xue¡¯s body is weak, she has a sensitive physique, her reaction was not as good as other kids, she is somewhat abrasive, she keeps asking for her mother¡­¡­ ¡± Sensing that her mother is back, Xue¡¯s eyshes batted and shook, slightly open her eyes a slit and saw Ji Qing.She moved in the nurse¡¯s arm, then stretched out her two small arms: ¡°Mu ¡­ ¡­ Mama, Mu ¡­ ¡­Mama¡­ ¡­ ¡°. The little girl said in a weak voice, she was a year and two months old, her mother felt more distressed. Ji Qing took the girl in her arms, she said to Aunt Guo: ¡°Why don¡¯t you go to sleep, you don¡¯t have toe tomorrow if you¡¯re tired, and I¡¯ll ask for leave tomorrow, and Zi Qin will be here with Xue, she happened to take an annual leave, we both can take care of Xue, you can be at ease!¡± Aunt Guo nodded, Ji Qing felt Xue¡¯s head, and went to the room. Ji Qing held the child in the bedroom, walked back and forth, swinging, and her mouth softly singing lubies. With the familiar feeling of her mother¡¯s arms, the little girl whined two more tims and then soon fell asleep. Ji Qing put her in the crib, covered her with the nkets, the little girl toss and moved, as if she was about to wake up, Ji Qing gently shook her little bed, and the child went back to sleep at ease. Ji Qing rocked the crib while looking down at her daughter.Her daughter is really beautiful, big bright eyes, shaped a bit long, and when her eyes narrowed slightly, it looked almost like her father¡¯s, the same eyes, hershes long and curly, brows like it was drawn with a pencil, when looking at you, she can make you want to give her the world. Small face, her forehead was full, when she smiles, there are dimples on her cheeks, which is about the only thing that is like her, and the curvature of her nose is beautiful, and her lips slightly upturned, smiles so sweetly, charming delicate weak little girl, so much like her father, but she¡¯s Ji Qing¡¯s life. Watching her sleeping daughter, Ji Qing could not help thinking of Jin Cheng, two years seems another world and century ago. She signed the divorce agreement. If Jin Cheng didn¡¯tply with the procedure then she is still in a marriage though she and Jin Cheng has been separated for two years. Ji Qing felt confused, also felt fear that she couldn¡¯t give birth to Xiao Xue, and now she are doesn¡¯t care. If he knowsshe was with a child, left, and gave birth¡­¡­ Ji Qing doesn¡¯t dare to think of the oue, that man is bad, she knew, but she can¡¯t be his opponent. In terms of rights, status, will power and means, she was nothingpared to Jin Cheng but she couldn¡¯t be sure why exactly now he loathes to give her up. Ji Qing could not help shaking her head with a wry smile, he won¡¯t let her go? What does she have? What is she? Ji Qing leaned over and kissed her daughter¡¯s sweet soft cheek and muttered: ¡°Xue, grow up quickly, once you have grown up, your mother will not be afraid of anything ¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing slightly sighed, took her change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a bath, a quick one, she sat at the dresser, the mirror reflected her face, Ji Qing involuntarily touch herself on the cheek, she hasn¡¯t changed in the past two years, actually she was an old woman, she¡¯s passed the age to love, after turning twenty five, the ship has left the dock. And that man ¡­ ¡­ years had given him more charm, sessful men have that sort of maturity,pared with when he was 20 years of age, more attractive, and the beautiful air about him, why dwell on a yellow-faced ex-wife, that divorce must be resolved soon. Ji Qing sighed, finding herself today, sighing too much, she remembered when her mother was alive and she said to her, ¡°Baby, girl! Smile, sigh less, smile more, everything will turn out fine, always sighing will also bring bad luck ¡­ ¡­ ¡°Mom sighed more often than anyone, perhaps because of this, Mom¡¯s life was so tragic, but hers? Ji Qing turned her head and looked at her little daughter asleep in the crib, she should not sigh, her daughter is so small, and the man ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing shook her head, she needs to think about her next steps! Jin Cheng rushed back to the B City, that night he sat on the terrace of the Viand drove back to T town in the morning. He was thinking all night and wanted to understand. Just like he did not know why she left, he still does not understand why she didn¡¯t tell him toe back. For the first time ever, Jin Cheng begins to question his own charm. Does she hate him that much? So much as to never want to see him again? Jin Cheng doubt that he did anything wrong in the past. He remembers the small rabbit lying imps in his arm. Now she has so much courage, rabbits when baring their teeth can also bite people-not a fatal bite-but hurting nheless. Jin Cheng remembers the kiss at the hospital, suddenly, he thought that she was not without feelings for him, she kissed him back, he can feel it, then why is she so defiant? Jin Cheng wants to set things straight, the more he thought about it the less he know. He should try to solve it. Jin Cheng didn¡¯t waste any time, at nine o¡¯clock in the morning he was in the first floor of her building, he didn¡¯t greeted anybody, he went directly upstairs, ording to yesterday¡¯s bright light from the window, she entered the door to left of the stair. Feng Jin Cheng stood in front of the door of the apartment 501, without hesitation he rang the bell several times. There was no movement, he wanted to ask the next door neighbors but there was nobody there either. Jin Cheng went downstairs and sat in the car, all of a sudden thinking of yesterday¡¯s dinner. He called Ji Qing¡¯s boss on the phone, just to be told that Ji Qing took the day off today. Jin Cheng suddenly felt frustrated not knowing where she is, can it be that she doesn¡¯t want to meet him and ran? He lit a cigarette and took two puffs.If she was really running away from him, then why not quit her job, she knew he was acquainted with her boss, and have some business dealings. Jin Cheng sat back leaning on the seat, pressing his temple, he stayed up all night and drove here, his head pounding with pain, he lowered his seat, and closed his eyes, trying to sleep for a while, he does not believe Ji Qing won¡¯te back up. Jin Cheng was really stood up. Ji Qing was picked up by Zi Qin¡¯s car early in the morning today, both mother and daughter, Zi Qin received the two in her home. Zi Qin an Ji Qing were best of friends, they both studied in the same University, Zi Qin college days were tough, her family couldn¡¯t afford the tuition fees, Ji Qing helped with it. That was thanks to generous stepmother Zhang,Ji Qing would save up her allowance money. Zi Qin tuition had beening from her savings, and that made the two friends for life. When she was a junior, Zi Qin began sell insurance, it may be hard, but a single royalty can be a substantial ie, and when Ji Qing married Jin Cheng, Zi Qin returned to her all the money at once. When Ji Qing decided divorce, she thought she could only rely on Zi Qin. By the Zi Qin took a loan to buy a small two bedroom house, Ji Qing stayed with her until Xue was born, then Ji Qing got a job, hired a nanny, and rented a ce not far away. They still spend the holidays together, Zi Qin¡¯s character is very straightforward, and she understands Ji Qing¡¯s moods very well. In the morning today when she picked up both mother and daughter, a quick look at her little face, Zi Qin knew something was up. Carrying packages, closed the door, letting her put Xiao Xue in the stroller, she waited for Ji Qing to sit on the sofa before starting the interrogation: ¡°Spill it out! What happened? ¡° Chapter 7 Ji Qing broke the silence: ¡°I saw him¡± ¡°Him? Who? ¡°Zi Qin didn¡¯t even understand, feeling that Ji Qing¡¯ words didn¡¯t make sense, with her face showing confusion, she asked again:¡± Your ex-husband? Cheng Jie you met him? ¡± Ji Qing nodded, Zi Qin held her little face and observed it for a long time: ¡°Ji Qing what are you worried about, what are you afraid of? Are you not divorced yet? Even though he is an emperor, the fact is a fact, the fact is that you are already his ex-wife? ¡± Ji Qing bit her lips: ¡°The divorce papers, he did not sign the formalities, so¡­¡­¡± Zi Qin frowned: ¡°I see, if the divorce is canceled, he does have power, but now it¡¯s going to involve Xiao Xue¡± Her tone felt a bit heavy then she patted Ji Qing on the shoulder, saying: ¡°Well, things have turned out this way, we could not be afraid. Do you know if he knows about Xiao Xue? Even if he did, you don¡¯t know yet what will happen.¡± Ji Qing¡¯s face turned pale, shook her head before saying: ¡°I don¡¯t know, Zi Qin, actually I don¡¯t know why he¡¯s doing this. He never loved me in the first ce besides he¡¯s never had a shortage of women, these two years, I sometimes wished to see him, who would of thought that fate made us meet now¡­¡­¡± ¡°Now what? ¡°Zi Qin somehow does not understand these people The fact that Ji Qing had a decade of unrequited love for Jin Cheng, she knew about that but Ji Qing is a stubborn and introverted person. If it wasn¡¯t for Ji Qing¡¯s friendship with her during college days, she would have pulled her hair when she came. They were both lived in a dormitory, after almost a semester, they hardly spoke, in fact, she thought that Ji Qing was a bit entric, and Zi Qin was very inferior, a vige girl, she barely passed the college entrance exam, she just jumped out of a ravine in China. Zi Qin btedly discovered, once she looked up from her books, in the big city, not everyone is good and simple, some were malicious, she faced scorn, sarcasm, alienation, and less than a year, she tried again, she was kind of frustrated, then when she started to feel despair, she met Ji Qing. Although Ji Qing never admitted, but for Zi Qin, she is the image of goodness in people. When she was in despair, Ji Qing made her see hope. An often cold and withdrawn woman but she actually possesses a warm heart, with her silly unrequited love of ten years long, only hidden in her heart, she never showed it. Sometimes Zi Qin thought, Ji Qing is like a wall flower looking in, but is full of surprises. And when the Sun blooms, there is also a kind of dazzling beauty, but this beauty of a flower hardly anybody understands. Zi Qin couldn¡¯t help but admit Ji Qing¡¯s ex-husband is the embodiment of evil Adonis. She can¡¯t me Ji Qing¡¯s inferiorityplex because as mere normal women, they do not mix with this Adonis. Zi Qin still remembered the first time she saw Jin Cheng, it was on their wedding day. When the man came out, Zi Qin thought the auditorium came alive, it wasn¡¯t the bride Ji Qing who had the effect, people were convinced that they were in the wrong ce, is this an idol show? White groom suit, Jin Cheng was a real flower boy, he can put those idols to shame, he looked nonchnt, kept up his air, gestured with grace, even though Zi Qin was clear, he went through the wedding impatiently, but his lips hung a bright smile, acting decently. Ji Qing that silly woman, Zi Qin conjecture, what happened to make her dreame true, the wedding with Jin Cheng, she would space out from beginning to the end of the ceremony, that kind of dreamy smile, slightly hidden on her face. Well, not so many people end up marrying their 10 year crush, Ji Qing achieved this, only unfortunately she did not understand, one sided love is the most tiring, with time, perhaps love will bloom between them, but if not responded, it will gradually fade, slide away, like sand in one¡¯s hand, even if you grip it again tightly, with force, nothing can stop it from slipping away. Love is mutual, and Ji Qing¡¯s love, so wrong, humble as it is, but afraid of nothing in the end. When Ji Qing came to T City, Zi Qin almost did not recognize her, when Ji Qing got married Zi Qin moved to T City. They haven¡¯t seen each other for six months, they only had telephone contact, so seeing her carrying arge bag at the train station, with a piece of paper in the middle of the corwd, Zi Qin got a shock. She was never fat, but now she was so thin, her eyes looke outrageously big, itseemed like the wind can blow her away. She took Ji Qing home, Zi Qin only knows she had divorced, in her belly was a souvenir, Zi Qin was sad and afraid, after Xue was born, the two women had no parenting experience, luckily they found Aunt Guo. Now hearing what Ji Qing said, Zi Qin can make sense of it, Ji Qing is running away again form Jin Cheng, even though she ran her own Insurance brokerage, Feng Jin Cheng¡¯spany is famous, he is a icon in the business world, if he wanted to shame Ji Qing, it would be very easy. Zi Qin was worried for her. Suddenly there was a ringing sound, Ji Qing and Zi Qin quickly turned andughed, Xiao Xue was in her walker, she crashed on the table over there, trying to climb out of the walker and onto a chair, her leg slipping, screaming¡­ ¡­ Mama ¡­ ¡­ Mu¡­ ¡­ Mama¡­ ¡­ Zi Qinughed out loud, she walked over, took out Xue from the walker and sat her on the floor: ¡°The other day I read in Baidu, it said that usually children over 15 months should be able to walk and talk, I wonder why your baby Xue¡¯s development is sote, maybe it¡¯s because of her weak body, I also deliberately asked around to my colleagues, an elderly colleague even told me, the baby¡¯s leg and mouth, will develop at the same time. ¡± In front of them Xiao Xue walked a few steps, hunched, stumbling: ¡°Come here,e here,e here Xue, Godmother has candy ¡­ ¡­¡±She said while pulling out a stick of candy from her pocket, temptation made the little girl rush forward, Xiao Xue was starting to drool, her small body staggered, stumbling, then falling forward, seeing this, Zi Qin jumped forward to swoop the baby, she held her up and nted two kisses on her little face. ¡°Our Xiao Xue is the best¡­ ¡­¡± ¡°Candy ¡­ ¡­ candy¡­ ¡­ candy¡­ ¡­ ¡°Zi Qin hands it to the little girl, who is eager to catch the candiy, Zi Qin peeled the wrapper then stuffed i into her mouth, holding her back to the sofa. The little girl began to eat with delight, Zi Qin said with smile: ¡°It¡¯s her father¡¯s, you see this little look, no one can deny. ¡± Ji Qing held a wet towel to wipe her daughter¡¯s small hand and small mouth: ¡°We cannot let him know about Xiao Xue, or¡­¡­¡± Zo Qin nodded: ¡°Maybe, you let Xiao Xue and Aunt Guo move in here with me.That Feng Jin Cheng is quite a scheming person, if he really wants to go after you, he wouldn¡¯t retreat. This will give you some space to moveas Xiao Xue is living with me. If Jin Cheng really found out about her, you can say that she is my daughter, and that way we can keep her away from him. ¡± Ji Qing nodded: ¡°We can only resist for a while ¡­ ¡­¡± Zi Qin suddenly raised her eyebrow: ¡°Ji Qing, maybe that man really loves you, or has he fallen in love with you, so he doesn¡¯t want to divorce ¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing sadly: ¡°How is this possible? He is surrounded by women, and I ¡­ ¡­ Zi Qin, I¡¯m just an ordinary woman, and old woman that is almost 30¡­¡­ ¡± Zi Qin eyebrows stood up: ¡°30, what¡¯s wrong with that? I¡¯m also 30 and women in their 30s are really beautiful, and Ji Qing, you don¡¯t look in the mirror? ¡±l With that, she lift up her jaw, jokingly: ¡°TUT, tut, look at these little red lips, flushing face, nobody will suspect that you are more than 20, this little girl, so sweet¡­¡­ ¡± Xue was in Zi Qin¡¯s arms, though can¡¯t speak, but she seems to understand what her Godmother is saying, she gave a big kiss to her Godmother, leaving Zi Qing¡¯s face wet and sticky. Zi Qin dumbfounded, Ji Qing was snorting withughter, and Zi Qin took the candy from the girl¡¯s hand and put it aside, held the little girl so that stood up: ¡°Go! Let¡¯s go to wash your hands, no, let¡¯s take a bubble bath, after that we will cook dinner ¡­ ¡­ ¡± The little girl likes taking a bath, ying with the white bubbles, mouth opened, giggling andughter, quite excited, Ji Qing also stood up and came in, the little girl likes to y with water, her little arms and calves are like those of frogs iling. Usually at home, Aunt Guo usually bathes her, she gives her a quick shower, then wrapped her in a towel and take her out, even if the little girl was not willing to, she would pout and throw small tantrums, while Zi Qin dotes her, and without firmness of discipline, as the little girl likes to y water, she deliberately loaded the bathtub with water, so Xiao Xue can yhappily.As a result, Xiao Xue loves Zi Qin, and she doesn¡¯t hesitate to show it, even her mother Ji Qing can disappear, actually she is a heartless little girl. Chapter 8 Jin Cheng is tired, he has not shut his eyes after meeting his wife again. In fact, for almost two years Jin Cheng did not have a good night¡¯s sleep. After his wife left, after the initial anger ebbed away, emptiness took stead. He had be ustomed of having a wife at home waiting, even if hees inte, upon entering the room, he can see Ji Qing leaving the light on, a dim light, but giving him the feeling of warmth, his heart filled with stablity, very dependable. With Ji Qing gone, a huge space seemed to invade his life, a dreary and cold kind of atmosphere making his heart empty hanging in the air. Unconsciously, the young woman has been so important to him. She was important at an essential level but being blinded by a moment¡¯s anger, he did not quite realise and understand it. Two years trying hard not to look for her, every day and every night, Cheng Jie¡¯s heart was in a game of When the insistence (to look for Ji Qing) in Jin Cheng became stronger, it suddenly happened, he was reunited with his wife. All tangles were solved, Jin Cheng can finally open his lost baggage and face up his heart. He will not lightly give up, she is his wife, she was his, was destined to marry him that day; he didn¡¯t want to but now he cannot bear to be separated any longer. In retrospect, Jin Cheng felt he regretted the decision. It was because of his false pride that he and she had wasted two years; two years is long, two years is 730 days 17,520 hours, 1.0512 million minutes, 63.072 million seconds, after such a long time, he still had a light burning for her. Counting very carefully how long they shared a life, a few years together despite the separation, Jin Cheng finally realized that no matter how they were before, at least now they won¡¯t miss this chance. Even now she is not upstairs, Jin Cheng can clearly feel she is not far away, unlike before where he would unconsciously look at the vast sea with careless conjecture wondering where could she be. This feeling he has of finding the way home, is very good. Jin Cheng finally understands that as a man, despite outstanding ability and sess, wealth, fame and fortune, but with no home, it was like duckweeds with no roots, drifting anywhere the wind blows, with no destination. Home is not the huge vis, not even the luxurious andfortable lounges. As long as he is besides the woman he loves, he is at home.(es: aaaaaa¡­¡­ how romantic) (wl : beneath the cold exterior lies a man with passionate heart :-)) Like returning from a journey of a thousand miles, Jin Cheng fell asleep and he slept soundly, and he dreamt, dreaming ofughing and holding his wife in his arms. He heard an annoying knocking sound, Jin Cheng was going to ignore, but the sound only became louder. Jin Cheng frowned and opened his eyes for an instant, not yet adapted to the dim light, eyes narrowing slightly squinting the he realized that it is night already, he slept during the day. The knocking sound came from the window, Jin Cheng slightly turned his head, he could see a small face almost stered to the window. It was just like a dream, she¡¯s finally back, her thin lip gently curled up, radiant. Jin Cheng looked at her greedily, reaching out his hand to gently touch her face, her silluette. Ji Qing came to find Xiao Xue¡¯s winter coat, Zi Qin said that she was taking the little girl to the amusement park tomorrow, she was afraid that it might get cold, it¡¯s better to have extra thick clothing, Ji Qing ran back, the distance between their homes was about a ten minute walk away. Ji Qing was entering theplex when she saw a BMW parked in front of the entrance. Although now every family has a car, not too many are as shy, Jin Cheng¡¯s car cannot be consideredmon, especially thatst night Ji Qing sat in it, how can she not recognize it. She felt a brief confusion, after the cold words she said yesterday, why would hee again so soon, and, since he was here, it shows thatst night he followed her. Thinking about this, Ji Qing broke out a cold sweat, how long has been here? Did he see Xiao Xue? Was he here to question her? Or did he finally decide to hurry up with the divorce. Ji Qing found that she did not want to face either option, but Ji Qing knows, since he found her whereabouts, there is no use avoiding. She plucked up the courage to walk over, she knocked for quite some time, but there was no response, Ji Qing took a look inside the ss, but the midwinter dusk and the dark interior of the car, so consequently she couldn¡¯t see anything. Ji Qing thought for a moment, her hand was about to knock when the door burst open, Cheng Jie came out from the inside: ¡°why are you sote? Where were you? I wanted to see your face again.¡± Without any exnation, Jin Cheng took Ji Qing into his arms, stepping into the door. They went upstairs, seemingly natural like they have never been apart, suddenly Ji Qing found herself standing at the door. Ji Qing puckered her lips and looked down, wondering how to cope with this man, Jin Cheng has bowed her: ¡°open the door, did you lose the key?¡± He took the bag off Ji Qing¡¯s shoulder, with his long fingers he opened the zipper then peeked inside. Even though Jin Cheng didn¡¯t have children but he¡¯s been around people that do, he saw in the bag there were diapers, baby bottle, wet towel, a towel, a change of small clothes, children small snacks, small toys, just like a treasure chest. He looked at her sharply and handed the bag back to her, why would his wife carry kids¡¯ stuff in her bag. Jin Cheng looked suspiciously at his wife, Ji Qing rattled the bag, pulls out of key, put it into the keyhole and turned rigidly, and she turned around and looked at Jin Cheng: ¡°You, why on Earth would you do such a thing?¡± Cheng Jie didn¡¯t speak, slightly squinting his eyes because of the dim light in the hallway, Ji Qing felt increasingly nervous and not only in the bag, but inside the apartment there were traces of Xiao Xue¡¯s things, and if Jincheng came in¡­. Ji Qing¡¯s tension caught Jin Cheng¡¯s eye, he understood it differently, during the separation these two years, this woman cheated on him, oh please! This was the thought in his head, Cheng Jie felt as though his blood vessels were about to burst through, he could care less about anything else, if this woman dared ¡­ ¡­ He would first kill the adulterer then kill her, don¡¯t even think they can enjoy their lives ¡­ .. (wl : for someone who has not care to look for his missing wife, jin cheng¡¯s jealousy is a bit out of ce)(es: I totally agree with you on that) Cheng Jie held out his hand, with a hard voice hemands: ¡°give me the keys,¡± his tone was cold as if it crept out from the 18yers of hell, Ji Qing was a trembling, the key fell to the floor with a crash. Jin Cheng arms touched the door behind her, feeling the pressure in her head, Ji Qing can¡¯t help but close her eyes, feeling Jin Cheng¡¯s breath across her cheek andnded in her ears: ¡°in two years, I¡¯ve been wondering, what surprise will you give you husband huh? ¡± Bending down to pick up the keychain, precisely finding the keyhole then made a twisting movement, there was a clicking sound before the door fell open, Ji Qing who was blocking Cheng Jie, was almost pushed inside. To find the light is turned on, Cheng Jie was dumbstruck, it was totally a girly style, simple and warm. From the first impression, there is no trace of any man, it is also very clean, even though there were parts that was a little messy, piled on the floor was a crawling carpet, stacked with plush toys. The living room is not big, it could even be considered as small, there is a small window, where the winter sun cane in to light up the little room. Leaning against a wall was small dining table and four side chairs, the tabletop is wrapped in soft fluffy cloth, Jin Cheng looked around, the side corner shelf is stacked withyers uponyers of children¡¯s toys, and cartoons are pasted on the blue walls, vivid cute cartoon wall stickers. This is a kid living space, and that the child will not be too big, or probably just learning to walk. Jin Cheng has nced, bowed his head but still looking at the trembling woman before him, Cheng Jie thought that his wife must have something not so simple going on here. Jincheng looked at two-room doors, slightly distinguish direction, pushing one of them and went in, therger room had a bed crib on the left side, Feng Jin Cheng raised his eyebrow: ¡°wife, maybe you should exin it all to your husband¡­¡­¡± Husband? Exin? Two words reflect in the head of Ji Qing, it made herpletely awake, she was pushed to the extreme, Ji Qing suddenly blessed Zi Qin¡¯s soul with all her heart, she said: ¡°Uh ¡­ ¡­ That, Zi Qin¡¯s daughter, while she was on a business trip for more than half a month before, the kid and her nanny came over to live with me, downstairs there is a small garden, it¡¯s more convenient, suitable for children, these things just pile in here ¡­ ¡­ ¡± ¡°Zi Qin? ¡°Jin Cheng wanted to think:¡± is she married? ¡°¡± Uh ¡­ ¡­ ¡°Ji Qing shook her head. ¡°Without being married and she has a child? How old is it? ¡±Ji Qing suddenly felt that this is a good situation, but still obediently answered: ¡°The child is 15 months, very cute, her name is Xue, she is learning to walk¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing said thinking of her daughter. ¡°Cute ¡­ ¡­¡±, Jin Cheng soften, eyes on his wife slowly flowing, not knowing whether it¡¯s just an illusion, he always felt that his wife had a maternal glow, it is a great thing, and very attractive ¡­ ¡­ Maybe they should have a child, it would be a thousand times more cute than Xue, then he doesn¡¯t need to feel envious of others. (es: dhuh just talk already, both of you!) (wl : well¡­.they need time to sort out the awkwardness n the misunderstanding before they were able to speak heart to heart) Thinking of this, Cheng Jie¡¯s long arm stretched pulling his wife into his arms, his fingers propped her chin, slightly bowed,nded a kiss on her lips shutting her mouth, then another kiss on her eyes: ¡°wife, I miss you and I want to, I want to ¡­ ¡­¡± Familiar with his hot breath hitting her face, Ji Qing felt an all-over began uncontrolled heat, more and more taking over her brain ¡­ ¡­ Chapter 9 Remembering the past, how his kisses always excites her and just like fire in contrast to his cold and indifferent personality, this man once heated up, just one kiss from him can transform Ji Qing into molten ash. Ji Qing had no resistance against him, in front of him, she was always humble, humble as dust. To this piece of dust, the two years that quietly flew through, only made it denser. In love, whoever fell first, was destined to never be able to stand up and it was the 16 year old Ji Qing who fell in love with Jin Cheng and had loved him for so long, so long. To Ji Qing, sometimes it seems that she loved this man her whole life, even if they fall apart, that love will never disappear as if it was etched in her bones, and it is timeless. Jin Cheng greedily kissed thedy in his arms, their tongues blending, just like milk and water, a perfect mix. Jin Cheng¡¯s best hope at this time is that if only time could stop, not hurrying past, just at this moment, she was in his arms, he kissed her at this moment, so cute, such sweet pain ¡­ ¡­ The umtion of two years of longing, his lips and tongue, changed from overbearing to gentle, gently and slowly, slipping away from her lips. A wet and burning hot sensation along the side of Ji Qing¡¯s neck slowly shifting, from time to time a light bite, a peck, making her feel pain, itching, and goose bumps. It lit a fire in Ji Qing¡¯s body but she was unable to burn away, not from Jin Cheng solid embrace, tightly holding her waist, making sure that she couldn¡¯t escape¡­¡­ T-city had a rather cold winter, usually the houses were pre-heated, especially when it was snowing, but since she hadn¡¯t turned on the heater, it was quite cold. Ji Qing recovering from the heat, felt the strands of chilly air flowing through her skin. Though only for a moment, she regained her senses to find that her woolen coat had slid to the ground, her blouse unbuttoned, half of it hanging off her body. Her lingerie was loose, Jin Cheng hand had reached inside, sometimes light and sometimes heavily kneading. She felt him pushing her against the wall, Jin Cheng¡¯s other arm around her waist and his big hands slipping, touching her¡­¡­. (ES: sorry, I am leaving this part untranted, but I¡¯m sure we all get the idea) She was scantily d and awkward, and he had his coat on, even his tie knot was undisturbed. Ji Qing began to feel embarrassedand she shoved him away. (ES: Good going girl! It¡¯s not a good idea to be too willing) Jin Cheng did not expect her to have this reaction, he was pushed so hard that he went back two steps, and ended up sitting directly behind the bed. Ji Qing fixed her clothesthen bent down to pick up her coat. She looked up at Jin Cheng erratic eyes. In them she could see confusion, doubt, suppressed desires, and even anger. Those eyes unconsciously made her feel guilty. These events are really giving her a headache, but this really is not the right time to reunite with him! ¡°This woman, what does that mean?¡± Jin Cheng suddenly felt that he used to hold this small rabbit at the palm of his hands, and now two yearster, when they had the chance to catch up, what was she thinking? He didn¡¯t understand her reaction, Jin Cheng felt sure that she wants him, that kind of shaking as a response, Jin Cheng could barely control himself. Honestly Jin Cheng thought that after being separated for two years, he just wants to kiss his wife, and then ¡­ ¡­ Her influence on him is so big, he felt he was losing all control and would take her directly. However, this is not a heinous crime, to put it bluntly, they are a couple, and this usually is taken for granted. But this littledy, what¡¯s with that expression? Shame, regret, this is a very simple thing, does she need to be like this? Or did this woman forget the fact that he is her man. (ES: Jin Cheng, you jerk! Spousal rape is a form of abuse and indeed is domestic violence, not cool!) Jin Cheng thought that he really needs to remind her of it: ¡°Ji Qing, I am your husband, regardless ofw or fact, I guess, you won¡¯t forget it!¡± Ji Qing blushed, Jin Cheng is full of ambiguous words, and burned up, this man doesn¡¯t know how to be subtle, perhaps he is ustomed to be blunt in front of her, and he¡¯s saying this, Ji Qing guessed that he really wants to reunite with her. She was tired and didn¡¯t want to face thisplex situation, and most importantly, she has Xiao Xue, a heart full of hope and happiness for her little angel, these two years her life was peaceful and quiet, also happy, her daughter¡¯s love can fill all defects, she didn¡¯t want anything to change. Particrly that she didn¡¯t want Jin Cheng to know about the child, because she cannot predict his reaction, not knowing the consequences, Ji Qing didn¡¯t want to risk it, maintaining the status quo, is the best thing to do. Ji Qing¡¯s face turned dull, even slightly cold, leaning against the wall looking at Jin Cheng, a little tired but very clear: ¡°Jin Cheng, I had suddenly left, I was ill-conceived, but I really think that we do not fit to be husband and wife, you married me, but it was out of filial piety to your parents, you do not like me, and do not love me. And about my father, with the present situation, if we separate, for the Feng family, it would be more good than harm. Jin Cheng, I selfishly tied you to a year of marriage, I am very sorry, and now I¡¯m willing to let you free. ¡± Jin Cheng¡¯s eyes turned colder, when Ji Qing finished speaking, his eyes had frozen like arctic ice, and piled up was a cier of fury, as if it was a volcano ready to erupt, very dangerous. He never knew that this women was so lucid, in his mind, the woman in front of him was always cowardly, always talked in a low voice, or even stammered. Speaking so openly about love, it was the first time, but to him it is inappropriate in such a ce. Jin Cheng hated to admit it but now he was forced to. This woman has had her way with him that in the moment in mind, an aftertaste of the past, he thought he would push her through. Because of Ji Qing¡¯s words, Jin Cheng lost his wise judgment, thinking that this woman is still talking about separating from him. He is letting bygones be bygones and she still wants to leave him, and is saying so much worthless piece of crap to convince him. Jin Cheng pped his hands, it sounds unusually loud in a quiet space, Ji Qing¡¯s heart quickly jump a few times: ¡°Ji Qing, surprisingly in the two-year separation, you be quite good at talking! Set me free? HA HA! That¡¯s why you left? I was forced to marry you, I didn¡¯t like you, did not love you, I was unhappy? Two yearster, you want to set me free. Are you looking for somebody new, because you gave me such ame excuse ¡­ ¡­ ¡± Ji Qing¡¯s face turned white, this guy never has anything good to say. She always knewthat while he is wearing an elegant mask, no one ever really knows that he has neither tolerance nor understanding. When ites to his line in a discussion, he would strike back, even though she is a woman, or his wife, he was always relentless. Ji Qing started to be really hurt by him, after all those memories of him, for her it is precious, and she did not like him profaning it. She can endure so much, because it is clear that she is not his opponent, he will never back off even when the opponent is not qualified. Ji Qing bit her lip and lowered her head, not even looking at him, giving a passive resistance, whatever he said, she stayed idle. Jin Cheng doesn¡¯t hate her, she just never could express herself, even when her father had an ident, he waited for her to personally ask for his help, he waited for a few days, but she didn¡¯t say a word, she just sat there silently, saying nothing, just like a wooden stake, he did not know what she was thinking.(wl : sigh¡­what ackmunication did to them¡­causing misunderstanding n heartache) Now that he thinks about it, during their marriage, she never asked him anything, not even about the slightest things. But this time, with just a few strung words, she wants him to let go of her. Since they had married, she never made the decision, it was always what he says goes. Jin Cheng pressed his temple, he decided not to make his wife upset, for what its worth he was here, she would not try to run. ¡°I¡¯m hungry, give me a bowl of noodles, we can talk about thister ¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing was stunned, this was hardly his style. Now he wants her to cook, in his eyes she must be so easy to bully around. Ji Qing stood there, motionless. Jin Cheng looked at her eyes, suddenly burst into a loudugh, and this woman really has little patience with him. He stood up, threw off his coat on the bed, pulled open the tie, removed the cuff links, ced them on the bedside table, and folded his sleeves to the elbow, he stepped aside and asked: ¡°where is the kitchen?¡±(ES: Now that¡¯s kinda sexy, a man cooking) Ji Qing subconsciously pointed to the outside to the next door. Chapter 10 Jin Cheng opened the fridge and was quite surprised for a moment. In the past, Ji Qing¡¯s cooking was very normal. Everything about her cooking was just average, probably only once or twice did Jin Cheng found her cooking tasted good. So, Jin Cheng hired a maid. Ji Qing didn¡¯t say anything but she gave out a disappointed look. Jin Cheng didn¡¯t have high expectations for the contents of her fridge, it would be good to be able to get out a bowl or two of noodles to temporarily curb the hunger. Jin Cheng hasn¡¯t been here for long, but he felt that he didn¡¯t want to go. Here in the house decorated to suite his wife¡¯s taste, he felt at home, he felt an attachment to it. Surprisingly, there were plenty of food in the fridge. Suddenly a thought went through his mind, since they have reunited, this would be a good chance to prepare a great meal and sit down to a warm and romantic dinner. Jin Cheng weighed slightly then started to take out some vegetables, meat and fruit from the refrigerator, he turned to say to Ji Qing standing on the other side: ¡°Come over and help, don¡¯t just stand around and wait!¡± Ji Qing handed over some utensils, Jin Cheng threw her an onion: ¡°peel these first ¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing squatted on the ground near the trash can, peeling the onion while peeping at Jin Cheng. She never knew he could cook, in fact, in her mind, Jin Cheng is always standing on the clouds on the top of the world, so elegant and morous. But now this dazzling man in front of her, is emitting a fresh and sweet smell that is making Ji Qing kind of jumpy. His movements were confident, well-organized, and skillful ¡­ ¡­ Ji Qing finished peeling the onion and then stood up. She stared at Jin Cheng, his hands chopping so fast. Those perfect slender fingers, in addition to ying the piano, it also can be used to cut. Jin Cheng marinated the sliced beef, twisted around and caught a glimpse of her, took the onion from her hand, neatly cutting it into uniform blocks, slipping a cabbage, and then started cooking. Ji Qing took the cabbage and organized it after she finished washing them. She peered at Jin Cheng and suddenly saw he had a spat in his hand, standing on the edge of the counter, looking more and more handsome. Tasting the meal, she had to admit that his cooking tasted pretty good. Ji Qing suddenly let go of the chopsticks, this man could do such cooking, her meager culinary skills was really a jokepared to his. The dishes tasted very good but Ji Qing couldn¡¯t eat much and put her chopsticks down. Full of nerves, Ji Qing felt really stupid. She forgot that she previously told a lie and now she needs to tell a 100 more lies to fit the story, she¡¯s terrible at lying. She seemed to fall into her own set of dead ends and dilemma. Jin Cheng has a very good appetite, eating two bowls of rice, with a bowl of soup, then put down the chopsticks. Ji Qing feeling very self-conscious, cleared the bowls and washed them. Coming out of the kitchen, she found Jin Cheng couldn¡¯t find the tea, but instead he was drinking coffee out of her favorite mug, sitting in the living room watching TV. The TV news channel that was his favorite, but that was not the problem, it was hisid-back attitude, Ji Qing felt that he was making himself at home here. Seeing her exiting the kitchen, Jin Cheng turned off the TV, waived her over, and with a patient tone he said to her: ¡°I think we can talk calmly now. I was wrong, I apologize. I thought it over and we did note to the point of divorce, our marriage is something between both you and me. It has nothing to do with the Feng family. Until now, I do not understand why you want a divorce, I now give you the opportunity to tell me the real reason. If there is a misunderstanding, we can fix it, we can correct it, it does not have to end with a divorce ¡­¡­ ¡± ¡°The reason?¡± Honestly speaking, Ji Qing herself did not know the reason, but that she only wanted to leave him. After having Xiao Xue, she was tired, she was spent, and the reason did not happened overnight, but over time. To put it bluntly, it is Ji Qing¡¯s inferiorityplex, and if she had to admit it, it was herck of self-esteem. When two people get married not because of love, it could be said that the love is one-sided, Jin Cheng had made it very clear, after his marriage, he didn¡¯t want her to meddle in his life. He made the prenuptial agreements, did not care about her reasons, and he is letting her say anything now? This man has always been crafty, seemingly elegant, but actually overbearingly cunning, why would she be his opponent? Jin Cheng picked up the cup, lightly took a sip and slightly frowned. It¡¯s difficult to drink, he put down the cup, looked at his wife, waiting for her answer. Thoroughly cool Jin Cheng was unusually precise in finding the core of the problem, for a long time the woman stood there with her head down, Jin Cheng did not urge her, but patiently waited. After a while, Jin Cheng lifted his wrist to see his watch: ¡°I will give you ten minutes time, if you didn¡¯t give me any convincing reason, I can think that there is no real reason for it. If there was actually no existing reason for the divorce, so it was just you vexing, maybe it¡¯s because of your immaturity, I can forgive you this time, start packing, tomorrow we go home.¡± Ji Qing felt somewhat stunned just looked at him. She btedly discovered that it¡¯s impossible tomunicate with this man, they were like two people from differents, and Ji Qing did not know how to deal with this man. Jin Cheng cell phone rang, he nced and picked it up, the room was quiet. Since Jin Cheng did not steer clear from the room, Ji Qing can faintly hear the voices, the familiar female¡¯s crisp and nice voice. The caller and Jin Cheng are obviously very familiar, she familiarly called his name¡­ Ji Qing recalled several months after they were married, she still was not used to call his name. ¡°Jin Cheng, where are you? I have been trying to call you on the phone all day. Liu said you were on a business trip in T City. Tomorrow I have a campaign interview in T City, I have now passed the toll booth, if you are not busy, why not go out for a meal, our Deputy Director also ¡­ ¡­ ¡± Jin Cheng looked down at his watch, 8:30, muses: ¡°Okay! I¡¯ll direct you where to go? Go straight past.¡± There was a giggle on the phone twice: ¡± ¡­¡­¡­and where? The usual ce ¡­ ¡­ ¡± Jin Cheng put down his phone, he turned back to find that his wife had not moved from there. She was trying to see who he was talking with. His friendship with Zhang Lu is something she cannot avoid. Zhang Lu is Ji Qing¡¯s stepmother-Zhang Yan¡¯s sister. Zhang Yan wanted to match him with her sister but Zhang Lu was not his type, or to say, not the type that he will marry, too capable, too talented. He liked simple women, like his wife, who was sometimes silly and clumsy. (wl : isn¡¯t this type of man usually a chauvinist, domineering controlling man¡­.?)(ES: He is at the top of my sh*t list) However, even though there were no bad feelings but some lingering thoughts remained. Lu graduated as a television reporter, with a bright and sleek appearance, soon she made columns outside the press conferences and became popr. Jin Cheng was really familiar with her because two years ago, in order to upgrade thepany image, Zhang Lu gave him a few interviews, so Jin Cheng owes her a few small favors. Later he took her out to eat a few times, on those outings they found out that she and Ji Qing were rted, they also determined that Zhang Lu was not Jin Cheng¡¯s te of dish. Feng Jin Cheng is a businessman, and for a businessman it¡¯s important to be slick, it¡¯s also important to socialize with the right group of people, especially the media. By socializing, they can achieve a mutual benefit. And also at this moment he thinks that he should give his wife some space to think. His wife¡¯s brain is stupid, he should let her think it over so she would go back with him willingly. (ES: grrr¡­¡­¡­this man should be burnt in the steaks) During the year of marriage, whenever he went out for entertainment, Ji Qing never asked him anything, she never had much of a reaction, she would always y a small, peaceful and virtuous wife. Therefore at this time, Jin Cheng thought that there is nothing wrong with their behavior. Jin Cheng went in to the bedroom, picked up his coat and tie, finishing up, while saying to Ji Qing: ¡°Excuse me, there is a dinner party, I am afraid, will be back veryte, you go to sleep first, and tomorrow morning we will go back to B City, good wife ¡­ ¡­¡± As before, he bowed his head so Ji Qing can kiss his forehead, and then he turned away, Ji Qing suddenly felt ironic. Jin Cheng went downstairs to the car, press down the window, looked up, and the window was mirrored in his wife¡¯s shadow, Jin Cheng¡¯s lips bent, his wife is awkward with him, in fact she¡¯s still ufortable around him. Jin Cheng¡¯s whole body rxed, the saying was right, take care of business at home before taking care of business outside, for him this is really good reasoning. The Deputy Director was a key figure in the media, so this socializing event is also very important. Zhang Lu did not y an important role in this projection, in his eyes, she is a dispensable sidekick, but he does not know, that in his wife¡¯s heart, Zhang is like a thorn in her flesh. Chapter 11.1 Ji Qing looked through the curtain as Jin Cheng¡¯s car drove away, she felt a painfully familiar feeling with this scene, and during the one year of married life she relived this over and over again. Jin Cheng never hidden anything from her, like the articles in the newspaper, Jin Cheng¡¯s life is very colorful. It¡¯s a given, Jin Cheng is a sessful man, excellent pedigree, and has handsome looks. All these conditions, gold ted, diamond encrustedyers wrapping the man. Even a blind person cannot ignore him, not to mention the sharp eyes of other women. Her marriage to Jin Cheng assured the estimate that she was a dumb wife. The thought that Feng Jin Cheng is a man that marry for love is preposterous. She had already waken up from that dream, but she can¡¯t help have fluke of wishful thinking from time to time. She is a humble, vulnerable, and sill woman with no backbone. (ES: For goodness sakes, if you keep telling yourself that, what will be of you?) The sound of the phone ringing, snapped her out of her self-pity It was Zi Qin: ¡°Ji Qing, why are you taking so long? It¡¯s been two hours already. Xiao Xue and I had finished already. Come back to my hous quick, don¡¯t forget to lock the doors and the windows. Also you should take a taxi.¡± Ji Qing put down the phone, and a warmth filled her heart, it¡¯s like a loving rtionship of a family, Zi Qin was caring for her and Xiao Xue, more than her rtives, she sometimes thinks Zi Qin as her own sister. Ji Qing found a big travel bag, and threw her own clothes, then Xue¡¯s clothes in it, she turned off the lights, locked the door. She can afford it, she doesn¡¯t want to hang out with that guy any longer, she doen¡¯t have the ability to love as Jin Cheng¡¯s wife, that she knows for sure. Zi Qin was shocked to see Ji Qing dragging a big luggage bag through the door and Xiao Xue staggered: ¡°Mom, Mu¡­ ¡­ Mom¡± and passed by rubbing against her, Ji Qing put down the luggage, picked her daughter up, while saying: ¡°Xiao, we are going to live with godmother for some time, OK? ¡± Zi Qin took Xiao, and said: ¡°First let¡¯s wash up, we just came back from ying outside, who knows how many bacteria we have on us, Xiao¡¯s body is weak, she doesn¡¯t have much resistance. As her Mom, you should know this better. Also, I told you before that you shouldn¡¯t waste money moving to a different ce, you could have stayed here, my house is not big, but it is enough for us to live in. You, Xue and Aunt Guo can take the bigger room, you can also use the living room for Xue¡¯s y area. I don¡¯t need to work two shifts, so I can see Xue at home every day, it¡¯s a better arrangement, but you never listen to me¡± Zi Qin lifted her eyebrows, holding Xue in the washroom doorway staring at Ji Qing and asked: ¡°but howe you suddenly change your mind, did you see Jin Cheng?¡± Ji Qing pursed her lips: ¡°In short I don¡¯t want to get involved with him.¡± ¡°Then divorce! You don¡¯t need to carry out the formalities¡±. Ji Qing shook her head:¡± Zi Qin, do you know, who he is? The problem is that he doesn¡¯t want to divorce, I will have to sue him and go to court, and I don¡¯t think I will have a big chance of winning.¡± Zi Qin honest shook her head: ¡°It would be hard to win at all.¡± ¡± ¡­ ¡­ ¡°Ji Qing said:¡± I can only hide! It wasn¡¯t easy to go in hiding for two years especially with a child.¡± Zi Qin shook her head again: ¡°I feel that things are not so simple, what would you do about work?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll have to quit, but I didn¡¯t do much here, I was still in my probationary period, even if I don¡¯t get my wages, people won¡¯t let it go so easily.¡±¡£ ¡°What the fuck, ruining people¡¯s honest life, you hold still, and stay in hiding.¡± Zi Qin felt indignant, resentful and angry knowing that they cannot go up against Jin Cheng. Jin Cheng is really did not expect to finish entertaining his guest and return from the clubhouse in three hours. However when he got back to the apartment, he found that it was empty. He rang the doorbell, but nobody answered. The next door neighbor told him that Ji Qing left at about nine carrying arge luggage bag. Hearing this he frowned, that woman took off and ran away again. His face turned pale as he realized that she was hiding from him. Jin Cheng got in the car, his lungs felt as if they were going to explode. He looked at himself in the mirror not understanding why this woman is so eager to let him know that she never wants to meet him again. Jin Cheng lit a cigarette, smoked a few puffs in a row to calm himself down, he reflected for a few minutes, and still did not find the problem, he opened the door and stepped out, leaned against the hood of the car, not able to understand what she was thinking. He waited until dawn, but he didn¡¯t even see her shadow. Jin Cheng, suddenly felt himself being a bit too nice to the woman, not wanting to scold up her, he wanted to give her time to think about it and adapt. Not only did she not appreciate his intentions, she even ran away. Jin Cheng gritted, pulled out his cell phone and dialed Hu Jun. He found himself looking all around, just in case she would pass by. Chapter 11.2 Annoyed by the sounds of a barking dog, and his son that crept into their bed, disturbing his ns for a couple¡¯s quality night, Hu Jun was kicking and tossing in bed not being able to fall asleep as he held back his sexual urges. Suddenly the sound of the phone ringing surprised him. He jumped out of the bed and shot out of the bedroom to answer as not to wake up his wife and son. It was Jin Cheng¡¯s voice on the other side. He let out aint ¡°Do you know what time it is? Can¡¯t you wait for daybreak?¡± Jin Cheng did not pay him any attention ¡°Do me a favor, do what it takes, I need to find my wife, quickly!¡± Feng Jin Cheng said with a sharp tone, Hu Jun nowpletely awake. These two years, Jin Cheng had never cared to look for his wife. Everybody just thought that he was over her. Everybody was careful in mentioning the marriage and separation around him, even when they saw him burying himself in drinks for the past two years, never did they once mention about his wife, nor did he want to talk about her. But on second thought, this is a really good oue. If this couple can talk face to face and iron out their differences that would be good, because avoidance will not solve anything. Jin Cheng is a difficult person to understand, but for Hu Jun looking into this matter is a brotherly thing to do, so he actually had done hid due diligence before. Resting on his desk, was an envelope with a systematic information about Ji Qing. Hu Jun opened the envelope, and took out its contents, he looked at the photo of the cute little girl, and couldn¡¯t help but feel jealousy, how good life is for Jin Cheng, even though his wife ran away for two years, but she gave him a beautiful baby. Hu Jun hid this jealousy for a long time, only to find that things seem to be bad, Jin Cheng¡¯s wife gave birth to this child, and she¡¯s in hiding and does not want toe back. Jin Cheng seemingly obsessed to not make the effort to find her, for Hu Jun it is such a frustrating situation. Sure enough, once Jin Cheng held the report in his hand, he¡¯s expression turned dark and his hand shook with irate. Hu June cannot help but feel worried for Ji Qing, so he tried to give an advice¡± Jin Cheng, your wife, as I remember her was a virtuous and honest woman. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m sure there was a good reason for her to do what she did. It¡¯s normal for couples to have problems, but now that you have a daughter, you should try to¡­..¡± ¡°Daughter?¡± Jin Cheng cried out with surprise and hatred, two years passed, and he didn¡¯t know he had a daughter. His flesh and blood suffering somewhere out there. He remembered that she didn¡¯t even try to tell him or exin anything. Unreasonably refusing to go back home with him not even mentioning that she had a daughter with him. And now this? So she¡¯s nning to take his child and marry another man? Over his dead body! Jin Cheng felt a murderous impulse growing inside him, his chest filled with irrepressible rage. Hu Jun took a nce at him, Jin Cheng¡¯s face remained calm and unchanged. He began to admire Jin Cheng¡¯s wife, just the mention of her can always soothe him and calm him down. But he still tried to ask: ¡°So, Jin Cheng, what are you going to do?¡± Jin Cheng suddenly stood up,ughed out twice, then with a scary and cold tone he said: ¡°Do? She wants a divorce? Fine! She will hand over the kid to me, and then she can get lost! ¡°Hu June was startled. Chapter 12.1 Ji Qing never underestimated the ability of Feng Jin Cheng, she knows clearly that as long as he wanted to find her, there would be no where to hide, his perseverance is remarkable.. So when she opened the door to find Jin Cheng there, she didn¡¯t feel flustered nor found it too unexpected. Zi Qin even said, where there is smoke, there is fire, as Jin Cheng has the intentions, it would be almost impossible to hide anything. Ji Qing actually thought for a day and a night at home, she and Jin Cheng can solve it,divorced couples are not umon in society, if she were to tell Jin Cheng even if it was something difficult for her like Xiao Xue ¡­ ¡­ If she told him her reasons, Jin Cheng is not an unreasonable man. Thinking of this, Ji Qing gathered her courage and reached for the door,just as she turned the lock, Jincheng vigorously pushed the door open with his hands. Jin Cheng¡¯s dark expression like the angel of death as he strode into the room, looking around he almost yeeled ¡°Where is the child?¡± Ji Qing took a deep breath: ¡°Jin Cheng, let¡¯s talk about it¡­ ¡­¡± ¡°Talk it over?¡± Heughed in irony,¡±Now you want to talk with me? Considering the signs in front of you, aI think further discussion is a waste of time, Ji Qing, you want to divorce me? I can help you! But, the child is my family, I¡¯m going to take her away, and if you have the time tomorrow, we will go to the Bureau toplete the procedure since then¡±. Ji Qing face turned white, her body shaking as she drew back a few paces, grabbing the arm of the sofa to sit down, and slowly looked up: ¡°Jin Cheng, what do you want? ¡± Her voice choked, in fact, at this time, she was so weak and tired, and trying hard to push back the tears in her eyes,her face was white, almost transparent, she threw back her head and silently prayed. Jin Cheng¡¯s anger did not melt, instead he was all heated up. It was her usual trick trying to look pitiful, trying to melt his heart so she can get her way with him. Jin Cheng reached out and pinched her chin so hard that she let out a soft shreek. ¡°What am I saying,? Ji Qing, this word that I should ask you, what do you mean? Presenting this look in front of me is useless. A divorce? Getting married? Is up to you? but I, Feng Jin Cheng will not allow my children to not know me as their father.¡± Jin Cheng¡¯s sprout of anger seemed like vengeful me spray in Ji Qing¡¯s face, making her feel burnt, she must keep reason, she didn¡¯t want to deal with this man¡¯s behavior, no good wille out of that. She and Zi Qin never expected this kind of reaction from him, after all wasn¡¯t it he who said that he didn¡¯t want any children? Xiao Xue, was a part of her being, she would never let Jin Cheng take her away. She fuzzily recalled that just yesterday evening, there was room for them topromise. Thinking of this, Ji Qing grabbed his arm, ¡°Jin Cheng, Xiao Xue is still very young, she needs her mother, calm down and let¡¯s talk about this, OK?.¡± ¡°Snowman¡± Jin Cheng, suddenly felt himself as a miserable father, this daughter was a year old, until now he only knows her nickname, and this woman ¡­ ¡­ Jin Cheng looked down at her, her small face changes from pale to red, with what happened in the ER the other night, he seemed like a changed man, Ji Qing, the child is her weak point, after have a baby, she thinks that everything can be discussed, all problems can be solved. Jincheng suddenly felt a wave of jealousy from the heart, jealous of that girl he never met ¡­ ¡­ Suddenly the door opened from the outside with a Ka, Mu ¡­ ¡­ Mom, Mu ¡­ ¡­ Mom¡­ ¡­ a soft voice following in, Jin Cheng subconsciously looked back. Coming in through the door was a woman holding a baby wrapped in down jackets, looking bloated, in particr, that a child in her arms, with a scarf and hat all wrapped up, revealing two big round eyes, a dewy look, Mu ¡­ ¡­ Mom, Mu ¡­ ¡­Mom she called out twice, apparently she saw Jin Cheng¡¯s face, her small mouth opened, with her timid eyes she gave him a curious look before looking across to Ji Qing, her big eyes suddenly shined bright,Mitt ¡­ ¡­ Mom, Mu ¡­ ¡­ Mom she cried out, her little arms and gaping, and her small body rushed ahead. Ji Qing stood up and stretched out her arms, taking of the baby¡¯s scarf hat and down jackets, revealing a beautiful little girl in front of Jincheng. Chapter 12.2 Jin Cheng stared nkly at the little girl, her big eyes were opened wide and slightly wet, looking at him, her small face glowing pink, and her cute little mouth, the sight shot straight into Jin Cheng¡¯s heart. It was his daughter, his blood, and her eyebrows, eyes, looked like his when he was a child, no, I should say, more beautiful than when he was a child. Feng Jin Cheng¡¯s childhood was not a walk in the park, precisely because of his beautiful face that would get him into fights with other boys in his school. He hated that they would mistaken him for a girl. But now looking at his daughter, he could see the benefits of being born beautiful. looking at his daughter. Thinking of this, it kind of eased down his anger. He reached out his hand to caress the little girl¡¯s face, a face that is very familiar to him. She was timid at first, then felt herself getting bolder, when he touched her face again, she began tough with glee. Ji Qing¡¯s eyes darkened, Xue has always been fragile and shy towards strangers. But obviously blood is thicker than water seeing how, these two react to each other in their first meeting. Zi Qin stared at the man standing in the living room, she does not fully understand their problems, nor is she interested to get herself involved. In her opinion marital problems should be resolved by the two parties, but Ji Qing is like a sister to her. So she chose to stand behind Ji Qing and give her full support on whatever she decides. Jin Cheng ignored Zi Qin¡¯s eyes that was glued to him, instead he continued to tease the child. Ji Qing said abruptly,¡± Can we finish our talk, here?¡± Her tone was harsh and cold, giving a feeling that she does not intend to negotiate. Ji Qing suddenly realised the situation ¡°Let¡¯s talk outside¡±.¡± Jin Cheng touched the little girls head , then started towards the door, he turned back to see Ji Qing rubbing her daughter¡¯s ear and neck, then gave her a hug before handing her over to Zi Qin. Jin Cheng suddenly felt Strange looking at Ji Qing, in his memory she was a wallflower, now she¡¯s emitting this beautiful glowing aura, that is breathtaking. They walked out together and went into the car. There was a awkward silence apanying the drive, Ji Qing¡¯s mind was upied in how to deal with this situation. Her mind was focused, that she did not put attention to where Jin Cheng was driving, until the car stopped. Ji Qing sighed with awe as she looked up and saw that the car was parked near a hugeke. It was beautifully clear, despite the cold winter. The evening sunset sparkled on it¡¯s surface and the waves seem to map out distant mountains. It was surreal. On thekeside was a golf course, see can seerge mounds of green grass, it a sudden cold chill didn¡¯t hit her, she could easily believe that it was spring. Suddenly Jin Cheng sat softly beside her, she couldn¡¯t help but sigh. In another situation, she wouldn¡¯t mind sitting here enjoying the scenery while listening to music, but now she was too worried about the matters at hand for that. Ji Qing turned to look, only to find Jin Cheng squinting his eyes silently, he had a dark and gloomy expression. Ji Qing can feel her heart beat faster,a s she took a deep breath and said, ¡°The surname¡­..¡± She started the ball rolling, but was interrupted by Jin Cheng directly and resolute: ¡°There is nothing to talk about, her surname, she has my blood in her, she¡¯s mine. ¡± Ji Qing, ¡°She is my child. ¡± Jin Cheng eyebrows arched:¡± I never denied this. ¡°Ji Qing bit her lips, a ring of silence:¡± Even though from a legal standpoint, if we divorce,children should be with the mother, as a father, you can have visiting rights. ¡±¡£ Ji Qing Cheng Jie managed to hold down his anger, he thinks that she isn¡¯t in her right mind trying to argue this piece ofw in front of him. Jin Cheng lifted a contempt-filled smile ¡°Ji Qing you really are naive, go ahead and file for divorce I didn¡¯t say no, and let¡¯s really go to court, do you think, in your situation and conditionpared to mine, who is more suited to care for the child, I want to judge from the child¡¯s welfare point of view, anybody would say it¡¯s better for the child to follow the father.¡±(ES: Not true, a goodwyer can always argue, that he is too busy to care for the child, and he can lose the case and will need to pay his wife a good size alimony for the child) Ji Qinq¡¯s face turned pale, suddenly feeling a cold chill, This man can always make her tremble in fear.(ES: Facepalm) Chapter 13.1 ¡°What do you want? ¡± There was a moment of silence, Ji Qing murmured a few words under her breathe as if she wasn¡¯t willing to say anything else in front of him. this made Jin Cheng¡¯s heart fall into further distress, and his distress soon turned to anger. (ES: I feel you brother!) Jin Cheng felt anger mixed with mncholy, ever since they were reunited again, this woman never showed him any signs of being happy, instead she kept insisting on talking about divorce, which to him appears to be a bit ridiculous. Jin Cheng looked at her with a gloomy expression,¡±Ji Qing, i can ask ou the same thing, what do you want? I have told you clearly, that if you want a divorce, I can give it to you, but the child with the surname Feng, must live with me.¡± Ji Qing looked straight up at him,¡±You know that she needs me, we cannot be separated, don¡¯t be cruel¡­¡± ¡°Cruel?¡± Jin chengughed, ¡°Ji Qing, you know that I Feng Jin Cheng have never been a kind man. You should have known better than to have my baby in secret. You have just gone too far.¡± Ji Qing¡¯s face turned pale, this man is closing all her options and not giving her any choice. Ji Qing lowered her head for a moment, then stammered,¡±I don¡¯t want to¡­., please don¡¯t talk about separating me from Xiao Xue¡± Jin Cheng arched his eyebrow,¡±It¡¯s simple, Ji qing, you know that I¡¯m a busy man, at work and socializing, I don¡¯t have the energy, the time to go and find another woman and marry her as my wife. I have always considered you a good wife. Now if you still want to continue to be a good mother, there is just one way, understand?¡± Ji Qing noded, honestly, she couldn¡¯t understand Jin Cheng, there are so many women out there more confident and well suited to be his partner, what¡¯s the point in settling for a boring stay at home wife like her? He doesn¡¯t like much less love her, she sometimes feel that he might even be sick of her. Perhaps just likest night¡¯s dinner she is tasteless but a waste to discard. But to use Xiao Xue to ckmail her. Suddenly the thought came to Ji Qing¡¯s mind, maybe it¡¯s his pride, as she was the one who filed for divorce, it hurt his self esteem. For a perfectionist like Feng Jin Cheng, a wed marriage will stick out like a sore thumb. Jin Cheng took a sip of the coffee in his hand, even though it is an exquisite coffee, but it still leaves a bitter after taste in his mouth. He has been tasting this for thest two years. Putting down the cup, Jin Cheng¡¯s eye idently fell on Ji Qing, through the window he can see the sun gradually setting, only leaving a dim ray of light that entered the window, framing her silhouette, enchanting him. She slowly raised her head, her delicate facial feature in the dimming light, such a bewitching beauty. Jin Cheng suddenly felt the urge to hide her, not wanting to let another man see her. Though he knew it was an unreasonable thought, but it just kept lingering in his mind. Before Ji Qing can say anything, Ji Qing¡¯s cellphone rang, Ji Qing peered at the screen of her phone, then hastily answered the call, it was Zi Qin, her voice sounded worried,¡±Ji Qing, Xue has a fever, 38 degrees. Her forehead is burning up, and she¡¯s coughing badly. I¡¯m taking her to the children¡¯s hospital, please go there directly.¡± Ji Qing jumped up in panic, she stood up holding her bag, trying to run outside but Jin Cheng grabbed her wrist, Ji Qing tried to break free saying ¡°Jin Cheng, please let me go, Xue is sick, I have to go to the hospital, we can talk talkter¡­¡± Jin Cheng, let go of her wrist and held her shoulders and lifted her face, in a serious tone as if trying to warn her, he said, ¡°Ji Qing, Xue is my daughter, I thought I made that clear, now tell me which hospital, let¡¯s go there together!¡± Ji Qing was in no mood to argue with him, she told him the name of the hospital, then Jin Cheng dragged her out and lead her to the car. When they arrived at the hospital, they headed to the children¡¯s infusion room, where Xiao Xue was lying on a small bed and the IV liquid was hanging on it¡¯s side. Next to her was Zi Qin, seeing Ji Qing arriving, she stood up and said,¡±The doctors said it is acute pneumonia, it¡¯s my fault, I shouldn¡¯t have taken her out to the amusement park.¡± ¡°You took her to an amusement park on such a cold day?¡± Jin Cheng shoute, Ji Qing stood there saying nothing. Zi Qin snapped back at him,¡±She needed to do outdoor activities, yo have just been her father for a few hours, what do yol u know?¡± (ES: Ji Qing learn!) ¡°I don¡¯t know much, but I do know that my daughter is lying there sick, because of your so call outdoor activity!¡± Chapter 13.2 Ji Qing actually didn¡¯t want to ignore those two people, but she had other concerns, her daughter, she bent down to look closer at her, she was sleeping, but her face showed that she had been crying and her face looked pained, she would cough a few times in her sleep. Ji Qing touched her daughter¡¯s forehead, it was somewhat hot, but there were evident signs that she had gotten better, she gently stroke the little girl¡¯s hair, then Zi Qin suddenly pulled her up and lead her out to the corridor. At the corridor Zi Qin nervously said,¡± Ji Qing, you can get angry at me, it¡¯s my fault, if I didn¡¯t take Xue out to the amusement park¡­.¡± Ji Qing gently held her shoulder and shook her head, ¡°Xue was born premature, her body is weak, besides the doctor also repeatedly said that going out will be good for her, and can increase her immune system, this seems to be the flu season, it¡¯s difficult for adults to resist, let alone Xiao Xue.¡± (ES: As a mother of 2 premature born, I can¡¯t agree that premature babies are weak, it all depends on the care the parents give. Sorry Ji Qing, I must look at you with judging eyes in this case) The guilt on Zi Qing¡¯s face slowly began to disappear, ¡°The doctor said that at the best hospital, there are no beds avable, and they can only let her stay in the emergency room. A friend of mine who works as a nurse there said that there is a patient that will be discharged tomorrow, so they can let Xue have that bed.¡± Ji Qing nodded, ¡°I think it¡¯s better for you to go there, don¡¯t wait till tomorrow, there will be a risk that someone will take that vacancy. please deal with this, so we will have a better chance at it.¡± Hearing this Zi Qin nodded, she promised to call Ji Qing of any updates, then left. Ji Qing turned around and walked back to the infusion room in a daze. Feng Jin Cheng sat on the small chair by the bed, his tall posture made him look kind of awkward, he sat with his slightly bent, his finger caressing Xiao Xue¡¯s eyebrow slightly. His finger trembling as if fearing that he would use too much strength and cause harm to her. Seeing his shaking fingertips, Ji Qing¡¯s heart inexplicably felt sour, maybe she had been too arbitrary to him, maybe this man didn¡¯t hate kids after all. (ES: Double face palm) Jin Cheng¡¯s heart was shaken, in his 30 years of life, he never had any hands on experience with babies, yet here lying on this bed was a little girl that was his daughter. She looked so weak, her pale little hand tied to the line, with a needle buried in her thin blood vessel. He felt pained looking at her. Jin Cheng moved his head closer to take a better look at her, those eyebrows, those eyes, they were an exact copy of his. The more he looked at her, the more beautiful she was to him. He unconsciously reached out and caressed her face. Feeling a shadow in front of him, without taking his eyes away from her face, he asked shortly: ¡°What? What did the doctor say? ¡±¡£ A reasonable question with no intention to provoke Ji Qing, she replied in a low voice, ¡°The doctor said that in the best hospital, there are no more beds left. Zi Qin has a friend that will help to get an empty bed for tomorrow.¡± Jin Cheng finally looked up at her and gently touched the child¡¯s forehead then stood up. Using his customary tone ofmand and said: ¡°Stay here, I need to go out for a while, I¡¯ll be back ¡­ ¡­¡±. Ji Qing looked on as his tall figure strode out of the infusion room until his shadow disappeared to the corner of the corridor, she suddenly felt overwhelmed, she secretly smiled wryly, she is such a weak and hopeless woman, just for a moment, she also wants to rely on the man ¡­ ¡­. Ji Cheng came back followed by a kind and mature female doctor in her forties who greeted Ji Qing with a smile, she walked over to talk the nurses as Jin Cheng gently picked up the child, then turned to Ji Qing and said,¡±Don¡¯t just sit there, hurry up!¡± (ES: What a cold guy) Ji Qing suddenly snapped out of her daze, she took the infusion bottle and held it up, she followed Jin Cheng at a steady pace, out of the infusion room and into the VIP ward, where Xiao Xue will have the best care from the doctors and the best medicines avable to her. Suddenly it hit Ji QIng, maybe what Jin Cheng said was right, Xiao Xue will be better off living with him than with her mother, she can at least get the best medical care¡­.(ES: oh-oh¡­..what is going through your mind now?) Chapter 14.1 Infant pneumonia is verymon, especially with week children such as Xiao Xue, depending on the season, these infants can easily catch a high fever, cough, which asionally lead to pneumonia. Ji Qing had wanted to give the child pneumonia vine, but the side effects can be too much, she was afraid that Xue¡¯s body couldn¡¯t stand it, the doctor¡¯s did not rmend it, so she finally decided not to go ahead with the idea. Jin Cheng wasn¡¯t aware of this situation, being a first time father, seeing he daughter lying weak in bed, he felt an overwhelming fatherly love, and hearing that Ji Qing didn¡¯t give her a pulmonary vine, it burnt him from the inside, when the doctor left, he sprang up ¡°You didn¡¯t give the child a vine? What kind of mother are you? Don¡¯t you know how difficult it is now that the child is sick?¡± Hearing him ming her, Ji Qing filled up with grievance, she looked around to find a way not to vent her anger, trying hard to hold herself back. She didn¡¯t know how to start exining the situation to Jin Cheng. And even if she tried, she doubted that Jin Cheng will believe her. The fact is the child is lying there sick. She felt a misty haze building in her eyes, she was losing her self-control. She bit her lip, ducked her head, turned and sat on the Xue¡¯s bed, giving no exnation and no resolution, just sitting there in silent. Jin Cheng felt a pang of guilt in his heart when he saw the hurt in her eyes.. In fact, he is waiting for her exnation or resolution. Then it hit him. Jin Cheng suddenly realized that his problem may be that he was never able tomunicate with Ji Qing. He spoke to her, but she never responded earnestly. He who prided himself to be able to read the minds of women, but he cannot even guess what is going on inside his own wife¡¯s head. When Ji Qing left him, he never stopped to analyze what she was thinking or feeling that made her suddenly leave. In fact, he always believed that a few months before she left him their rtionship was improving. He realized that he would always snubbed her during their newly wedded period, every time she tried to express herself when she wasn¡¯t satisfied with something. Even so, in thest few months, he felt that they bonded well, both body and soul, he was going through a tender feeling of joy, sort of like a rebirth. When Jin Cheng was out socializing or even away from home, he was always anxious to hurry home. He kind of had a sense of belonging to his own home. He was being less picky on things, and when she disappeared, he always though on how to reconcile those feelings. So now he realized that he has to clear things with this woman, but he found it not easy, she was head strong to keep a tight lip, and give him a stubborn re. Thinking back, he was a little bit too much. He never tried to understand his wife, not to mention now that they have a weak child between them. As a result the three of them couldn¡¯t find perfect happiness. This ward only have single rooms, Xiao Xue had fallen asleep, and the two adults present were not speaking to each other. This made the room seem a bit empty, Jin Cheng nced at Ji Qing and sighed. Then turned around. There was a sound of the doors closing, a long strain of tear tolled out of Ji Qing¡¯s eye. Jin Cheng came back again about half an hourter, with two insted lunch box in one hand and then he put it on the bedside table, nothing good: ¡°Eat! If you get sick, no one will take care of you ¡­ ¡­¡± Ji Qing hesitated and did not look up at him but opened the lunch box, the top one was her favorite thin porridge, it was a fragrant glutinous rice porridge, this man¡¯s attention, was quite surprising. He sat on the bed side, his hand gently touched Xiao Xue¡¯s forehead, she was cool now, and her fever had gone down. He slipped his hand into a bag that was on the bedside table, and took out a new wash cloth, he walked over to the bathroom, and brought out a cup of warm water. Jin Cheng gently wiped the sweat from his child¡¯s forehead. He then took out hisputer put it on the bedside table and began to work. When he finished with his work, he found that he didn¡¯t know where to put the cup of warm water in his hand, suddenly he felt a warmth radiating from the cup, tickling his internal organs, a nice andfortable feeling warming his heart. Jin Cheng lifted his head and looked to the other side, he saw Ji Qing, she was dazzling under the soft light of the wallmp, and the warm light stained her eye brow, hairline and temple, creating an exceptionally soft contour, her eyelids slightly drooping, casting a perfectly symmetrical facial feature. Feeling his gaze on her, she lifted her head and looked up at him. His eyes were reddish, then he softly murmured, ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡­.¡± Ji Qing looked at him with surprise, what a miracle, the man apologized to her. To be honest, this was a bit of a shock, magical in fact, especiallying from Jin Cheng. With his arrogance and machismo, apologizing to a woman just seemed out of the question. Chapter 14.2 After calming down, Ji Qing gave herself a chance to reflect, what Jin Cheng said was true, as a mother she was somewhat to me for Xue¡¯s condition, she led her daughter to suffer sickness, Ji Qing felt a streak of regret in her heart. The apology from Jin Cheng, made her realize that maybe given a chance he can be more understanding. Her chain of thoughts was interrupted by the sound of Xiao Xue¡¯s coughing. The child is too young, she will not endure so many sickness. Crying endlessly while coughing, with phlegm stuck on her lungs, she tried to cough it out, but her face turned flushed red, almost purple. This really scared Jin Cheng, he felt a panic not knowing what to do. Ji Qing hel her child and coaxed her gently, patting her back and coaxing her to spit out the phlem. After coughing and crying for some time, Xue, fell asleep, all spent. Ji Qing carefully ce her in the bed, a drop of sweat was beading her brow, she shrugged seemingly to wake up again, Ji Qing held her again to cradle her to sleep. ¡°Let me hold her, while you rest¡­.¡± Ji Qing turned her head, she ced Xue in Jin Cheng¡¯s arms, to her the sight seemed somewhat strange, and he was still awkward making a very unnatural posture. Unexpectedly Xue didn¡¯t wake up though, she remained asleepfortably. After ensuring that the child was sleeping better, he gently put her on the bed and looked up at Ji Qing,¡±When Xiao Xue gets better, let¡¯s go home¡­¡± Ji Qing¡¯s eyes lighted up, lowered her head in silence, it¡¯s obvious he did not want to divorce her, and he wants her toe back and live with him, she can see that he feels happy and proud about the child, and now he is offering the three of them to live together as a family. Ji Qing felt really moved by this man, and today in just a few hours, Ji Qing had discovered a hidden part of him, an attentive, unobtrusive and sweet. Between a man and a woman as long as there is love, you can lose all rational judgment, even if it¡¯s a mistake and you can see it clearly in front of your very eyes, you¡¯ll always make justifications. And she is definitely foolishly in love with him. Ji Qing wanted so badly to go back with Jin Cheng, to continue her life beside him, even though she¡¯s not sure if he love her or not. Perhaps love is not of that importance. Then suddenly she Zhang Lu¡¯s smiley face shed before her eyes, she was shining and elegant, how Jin Cheng looks at her, these two Jin Cheng and Zhang Lu are perfect for each other, just like if they were born to be a pair. Now she can see herself stuck in the middle, so poor and pathetic. She did not want to be that kind of woman, dying of sadness. The constant struggle to see a smile on Jin Cheng¡¯s face, she doesn¡¯t want to go through that again, but at this point of time, she was to tired to argue. Jin Cheng never knew, how this idea crossed Ji Qing¡¯s mind over 100 times. Ji Qing was always able to change his moods, and now their child will be discharged from the hospital. Seeing that she didn¡¯t respond he held the child fearing that she might take her away and disappear without a trace. Squinting his eyes giving a cold look at the woman, gnashing of teeth and asked: ¡°Are you really going to court with me to divorce? ¡± Chapter 15.1 Okay guys, after a long break here¡¯s the first part of Chapter 15. I want to thank Sammy for providing me with the raw file. This Chapter is was a little bit difficult for me to interpret, even with my crazy and wild imagination. But this was the best that I cane up with, trying to work my mind around the many many idioms used in this chapter. By the way, for your information, I have a tendency to be egocentric and narcissist, so any negativements or nonconstructive criticism would not be posted and will be brutally deleted. I do however, wee anybody who will kindly volunteer to review the raw trantion and correct the interpretation I did in this post, or point out any grammar or spelling mistakes (nicely!). Please enjoy¡­¡­. Jin Cheng found himself losing patience in dealing with this woman, she is seriously determined not to say anything! He wanted to stay longer and bridge a dialogue, but he didn¡¯t want to seem intense about it. He was surprised with his own indecisiveness in dealing with the issue of his wife and child, finally he ruthlessly told her to wait for the court hearing! Wit knitted brows, he headed back to B city, once in a while picking up his phone to call hiswyer, butter hanging up again. He was well aware that if the case ever does go to court, this will limit their options in the future, but that woman¡­.he always knew that she was quiet, but he never thought that she would be so stubborn about the separation. Especially since they were rushed into tying the knot, and now all of the sudden they were facing divorce. Jincheng wished he could read Ji Qing¡¯s mind and understand what happened. Feeling depressed he called Ye Chi to go out for some drinks, he needed a friend to listen to his rants. These two days Ye Chi is free, his wife is travelling, her work organizes these trips several times a year, Ye Chi always uses this opportunity to hang out with his buddies. Ye Chi doesn¡¯t quite understand why his wife loves so much to go travelling with her work friends. To him they are a bunch of noisy, strange and annoying people. But she likes it, and he respects her decision. His mother inw came to pick up their son to bring to her house in the meantime, while his wife was away. So with the wife gone, and the boy at his inws, he was left all alone in his home, after work hours. It wasn¡¯t an enjoyable experience for him, the time he arrived home from work to the time he has to get up again in the morning to go back to work, drags on and on, like a heavy burden. Especially lying alone in the cold bed at night. So when Jincheng called him up to go out for a drink, he felt more than happy to oblige. From the look on Jincheng¡¯s face, he could see immediately that the man had something weighing on his mind. And here he thought that his own wife was a tougher cookie than Jincheng¡¯s! ¡°So what is your wife lie?¡± He asked. Jin Cheng let out a sarcastic smile, ¡°Like a bandit. A ruthless, wicked and evil bandit!¡± He said hatefully while taking a sip at his drink. ¡°Do you know what bandits do best? They kidnap you¡¯re children. That¡¯s what they do!¡± Hearing this, Ye Chi sighed in relief. What was he expecting his wife to do? He nced sideways at Jin Cheng, ¡±Ah¡­, I see, so you had a brawl with your wife?¡± He shook his head thinking about the situation. Jin Cheng had just found his wife, and now he called out a friend for drinks to relieve himself of stress. Perhaps he was just asking too much too fast. So he concluded that after two years of living through the disappearance and living like a chaste monk all this time. He thought that probably all the uncertainty about their rtionship was the thing that haunted him the most. All in all, even a ¡°monk¡± can feel temptation to eat ¡°meat¡± after two years of a ¡°vegetarian¡± life. Ye Chi really admired his friend, this guy really has potential to be a saint , Ye Chi poured him another cup, then grabbed the back of his neck and whispered, ¡°I¡¯ve only been apart from my wife a few days, and I¡¯m going crazy trying not to think about ¡°eating meat¡±. Anyway how did your conversation with your wife go? How was it that Hu Jun described your wife? Long pretty face, big eyes, but very small with a childish frame¡­.? Jin Cheng shrugged his friends hand off his shoulder, ¡°Fuck you! Don¡¯t talk about my woman like that¡­.¡± He puckered ¡°She¡¯s cute and pretty. Her smile is very warm. Every time she holds me in her soft sweet embrace I feel like I want to put the world at her feet. Who would of thought that a woman like that is capable of driving a knife through my heart and pushing my patience to the limit¡­¡± Chapter 15.2 Jincheng lifted his cup and drank the liquid down to thest drop. His smiled for a while, then his face became gloomy again, frustrated that she only allowed him to kiss her the other night and nothing more. He felt yed with, she brought his hopes up and left him hanging. Jincheng suddenlyughed at himself, she wanted to break up with him, and his worried about not getting any?
