Chapter 1439: Trouble in the Qin Family

Before Qin Chao could finish speaking, Chi Rong impatiently interrupted:

"Stop saying these hypocritical words! You are merely trying to satisfy your own ridiculous wishes! But we will not pay the price for your wishes!"

Chi Rong was filled with righteous indignation, her gaze sharp, as if she intended to go head-to-head with Qin Chao to the very end.

Looking at Qin Chao, his momentum gradually weakened.

Finally, he waved his hand irritably and said, "I don't want to talk to you right now!"

He was trying to find a way to back down gracefully.

But Chi Rong said expressionlessly, "Indeed, there is nothing left for us to say, so let's be direct: let's get a divorce."

Her words left Qin Chao stunned.

The next second, he looked up and stared fixedly at Chi Rong's face.

Yet Chi Rong was very calm.

She had long harbored such thoughts; previously, she had just muddled along for the sake of the children and had not taken action.

But now, there was no longer any need to maintain such appearances.

His wife's calmness made Qin Chao gradually uneasy.

He widened his eyes and shouted, "You must be crazy!"

Chi Rong responded with a cold laugh: "Having been with you for so many years, I have indeed almost gone crazy several times! Fortunately, I met these children; it is they who finally allowed me to wait for a day of light!"

Taking a deep breath, Chi Rong said calmly to Qin Chao: "To me, you are just a burden. Now, I don't want to be dragged down by you anymore!"

This time, Qin Yiyan stood completely on his mother's side; he felt his mother was very brave!

But Qin Chao's face turned livid.

After holding it in for a moment, he spat out three words through gritted teeth: "Don't even think about it!"

"Then we will leave it to the lawyers to handle. We have been separated for a long time, and now that you have stirred up this kind of trouble, it is only a matter of time before the court grants our divorce."

Chi Rong's words made Qin Chao feel desperate.

He stumbled, and then his gaze slowly fell upon Qin Yiyan.

Qin Chao suddenly exploded: "It's all because of you that this family has completely fallen apart!!"

Qin Yiyan would not accept this blame.

He said with a calm attitude: "The person who truly tore this family apart is precisely Father, but even if I told you now, you wouldn't be able to understand. Also, you don't need to worry about the company; I will take over."

So that was it.

He had racked his brains, plotting for the sake of the family and the company.

He hadn't gained any benefits, but instead brought upon himself a reputation of infamy and a broken marriage!?

Qin Chao's heart was gradually filled with rage.

When his anger reached its peak, he suddenly laughed out loud.

Afterwards, he slowly reined in his laughter, his gaze cold and sinister: "You all are thinking too naively; I won't let you get your way!"

Having said this, Qin Chao left the house.

Qin Yiyan stared at his father's back, worry in his eyes.

However, when facing his mother, he hid all these worries deep away.

He suggested: "You should move in with me. I think Dad's state... is a bit dangerous."

Chi Rong also did not want to entangle herself with Qin Chao any further, so she nodded in agreement.

His mother's agreement made Qin Yiyan lower his eyes slightly.

In truth, Qin Yiyan... had his own little scheme.

Liu Xin'ai had previously intended to distance herself from Qin Yiyan and even wanted to drive him back to the Qin Family Villa.

Now that his mother was moving in to live with Qin Yiyan, Liu Xin'ai would certainly not find it easy to bring that matter up again.

And also...

After the intimate contact they had experienced yesterday, Liu Xin'ai must be feeling very awkward.

She might not even want to pay any attention to Qin Yiyan.

But if his mother were there, Liu Xin'ai would at least show some consideration for his mother's sake and not make things too tense with him.

Thinking of yesterday...

Qin Yiyan felt somewhat melancholy.

That had clearly been a wonderful experience, but because Qin Yiyan had been under the influence of drugs, the whole process felt very unreal.

If only it could happen again...

"Yiyan?"

Qin Yiyan snapped out of his reverie and asked his mother: "What is it?"

"I should be the one asking you what's wrong. Why has your expression become so strange?"

Hmm...

The specific reason could not be explained.

All Qin Yiyan could do was change the subject: "Is there anything important you need to pack?"

"Not really, just some clothes."

"Then I will have the servants organize your clothes and have them sent over. For now, let's leave this place."

"That's fine."

Chi Rong felt the air here was very oppressive, and she also wanted to leave as soon as possible.

The reason she had stayed here in the first place was in the hope that with her in charge, Qin Chao and Wang Yaran would not act too recklessly.

As it turned out...

She had still underestimated the extent of that man's madness!

Now, she only hoped that everything wrong would end quickly, and that everyone's life could return to the right track!

Chi Rong's idea was very beautiful.

But for Liu Xin'ai... she felt that her life could no longer return to the right track!

After being busy in the Laboratory all day, Liu Xin'ai returned home and discovered a stack of books placed on her table.

Liu Xin'ai liked to read, and in her daily life, she was never without a book in her hand.

But most of what she read were medical books.

What was placed before her at this moment, however, was...

"How to Dump a Heartless Man," "59 Tricks of Scumbags," "100 Sweet-Talks Women Must Not Listen To," and so on.

Liu Xin'ai could guess who had bought these books.

This left her speechless; after hesitating for a moment, Liu Xin'ai went downstairs, preparing to have a chat with her younger brother.

And by the way, tell him that she really didn't mind.

That was just a simple... act of helping others.

She and Qin Yiyan were still husband and wife, and there was no such thing as who was at a greater disadvantage than whom; what everyone needed to do now was let everything go with the wind!

Liu Xin'ai prepared her speech.

She pushed open the door to the study, ready to reason properly with her younger brother.

But the moment Liu Qingze saw Liu Xin'ai, he spoke first: "Something happened to the Qin Family."

These words made Liu Xin'ai freeze, and then, she immediately became nervous: "What happened?!"

Liu Qingze did not explain much, only handing his phone to Liu Xin'ai.

Liu Xin'ai scanned the text at a glance.

But after reading it, she was no longer nervous; she even let out a soft huff.

This reaction from his older sister made Liu Qingze unable to understand.

He asked: "What are you huffing at? Do you think this information is unreliable?"

"Of course it's unreliable, it's simply fabricated nonsense!"

"Then what is the truth?"

Liu Xin'ai's lips moved, but she did not answer Liu Qingze, only saying: "Let's not talk too much about other people's private affairs."

Liu Qingze's curiosity had already been piqued, and he couldn't wait to know the answer.

In order to get his older sister to say a thing or two, Liu Qingze prepared to act spoiled.

But the servant who knocked and walked in disrupted Liu Qingze's plan.

The servant walked behind Liu Xin'ai and said: "Eldest Miss, there is a guest visiting."

A guest?

It was getting late now; who could it be?

Liu Xin'ai walked down full of suspicion, only to see the figure of Chi Rong.

Seeing Liu Xin'ai, Chi Rong revealed a face full of smiles and even said: "Have you eaten dinner yet?"

"Not yet."

"Then I've come just in time." As she spoke, Chi Rong handed an insulated lunch box to Liu Xin'ai.
