Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 642: Commit Suicide

Ye Jingcheng felt very uncomfortable, very pained, because of Mu Tangxue’s trick. He wanted very much to grab hold of Mu Tangxue and question her. He wanted to know whether or not she had intimate contact with that old man, and whether or not she had kissed the disgusting old thing.

However, he did not have the guts to do it. He had just sent Mu Tangxue’s most loved man to a rural area. If he argued with Mu Tangxue because of this, he would only push this woman further and further away from him.

He had worked so hard to get her back to his side. Therefore, he would rather go drinking alone. He would not let Mu Tangxue know that he doubted her.

When Mama Ye got out from her bedroom and saw Ye Jingcheng getting very drunk, she walked toward him, smirking. “Why are you feeling depressed now? Aren’t you the one who insisted on making her stay? If you’re so happy that you can even abandon your father and I, why are you drinking alone now?”

“Mother, just ignore me.”

“Everyone in the Mu family is harmful. Mu Qiqi is an evil one, and Mu Tangxue is another. These two sisters are born to destroy other families.”

“Mother, no matter what happened between Mu Tangxue and I, she will always be the woman I loved the most in my life. Whether you like it or not, you have to accept it.” Ye Jingcheng put down the wine bottle and bumped into the sofa.

“Humph, only you still believe in that bitch. Your father and I will not accept her. Don’t even think about it.”

Having said that, Mama Ye returned to her room.

She really wanted to see when her rebellious son would wake up. Was he only going to come to his senses when Mu Tangxue had destroyed the whole family?

Mu Tangxue was standing at the corner of the second floor right then. She heard the conversation between the mother and son, and knew that there had been a difference of opinion between them for quite some time. Although Mama Ye had dragged her out of the slums at the beginning, she did not do it out of compassion. Mama Ye was just afraid that she would marry into the Ye family.

She had never wanted to become the daughter-in-law of the Ye family, but Ye Jingcheng threatened her by harming Mr. Lu.

He was only getting himself drunk today. Was he going to commit suicide the next time?

The next morning, Ye Jingcheng woke up on the sofa and saw Mu Tangxue staring at him helplessly. “Why don’t you cherish your own body?”

“Tangxue, I…”

“I made breakfast for you. Remember to eat it. I’m going back to my room.” Mu Tangxue returned to her room. Ye Jingcheng was over the moon. As he ate breakfast, the haze in his mind cleared away.

…

The hospital was almost deserted because of New Year.

With the approval from the doctor, Grandpa Sheng could be discharged from the hospital and go home for recuperation. Grandpa Sheng was very happy. Even when he saw Mu Qiqi, his face still lit up with a broad smile.

“I don’t have to come to the hospital again.”

After surviving the near-death experience, Grandpa Sheng was completely reborn. He exuded an easy-going aura all over his body.

Hence, Mu Qiqi stopped targeting him and helped Hu Ran to pack his things.

“When you go back, you must rest well. Just save your energy from worrying about Huang Yao.”

Grandpa Sheng looked at Mu Qiqi and was reminded of Grandpa Shen who had been living a retired life for a long time. Since he survived this, he should of course go to him to apologize.

“When I have time, I should visit Old Shen.”

“He’s fine.” Mu Qiqi rolled her eyes.

Hu Ran found the awkward interaction between Mu Qiqi and Grandpa Sheng rather interesting. She couldn’t help feeling envious and said, “No matter how hard you fought, you really like each other now.”

“Does Grandpa not like you?” Mu Qiqi asked immediately.

Hu Ran shook her head. “No. I just feel that something is missing and that prevents me from getting close to the family, especially with…”

“With Third Brother, right? What are you thinking about? You two still haven’t… done that?”

“We are not like you and Eighth Brother. You two have gone through many things together. But there is nothing between Bowen and I,” said Hu Ran disappointedly. “It’s really tiring to try to be close to each other.”

Did Sheng Bowen know what was in Hu Ran’s mind?

“Third Sister-in-law, actually, I have matchmade quite a few couples before. Why don’t I help you to find out the problem between you two?” Mu Qiqi offered while walking out of the hospital.

“Nah, Bowen won’t like it if I share the secrets between us to other people.”

Mu Qiqi thought of Sheng Bowen’s face and burst out laughing. Grandpa Sheng, who was behind them, looked at her blankly.

After that, she simply sent them to the gate of Sheng Mansion. She swore that she wouldn’t enter the mansion again in her life.

“Grandpa, you take care. Now that I have come here, just consider it as Xiaoxiao having been here too.”

Grandpa Sheng did not force her. Not everyone could guess what was on the mind of the witty girl.

On the other hand, he had already sensed the problem between Hu Ran and Third Brother. So, before going home, Grandpa Sheng asked, “Do you still not like Third Brother?”

Hu Ran was startled.

“I know that although you have been very kind to each other, you don’t have the kind of feelings that a husband and wife pair have. When compared with Qiqi and Eighth Brother, it is even more apparent. Sigh… It’s my fault for forcing you to get married. Xiao Ran, you’re a good girl. If you really don’t want to live with Third Brother, you can negotiate a divorce. This time, I won’t make you to do anything you’re not comfortable with.”

Hu Ran froze.

“I…”

“You don’t have to answer me now. Think about it carefully first.” After that, Grandpa Sheng limped into the house with his cane.

Hu Ran was frozen in place. Her heart was flustered, especially when Sheng Bowen looked at her.

“What’s wrong?”

“I’m fine.” Hu Ran avoided Sheng Bowen’s gaze.

Sheng Bowen’s face changed but he didn’t ask Hu Ran anything. When they entered their room, he said, “What did Grandpa say to you?”

“Third Brother, I want a divorce.” Hu Ran gathered her courage and finally said. “I originally made up my mind to be with you forever. But I still think that we are more like family than lovers.”

“Really?” Sheng Bowen laughed, but he wore a weird expression. “Since you have decided, we shall divorce. Let’s find a time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. We don’t need to make an announcement. We will just break up peacefully.”

He didn’t even bother to struggle.

Thinking of this, Hu Ran was even more disappointed. Sure enough, a bad beginning would not lead to a good ending. She had to admit that when she mentioned about divorce, it was entirely on impulse.
