Chapter 412: Send the Ex-Husband to the Hospital!

"Give me one more chance, let's remarry." The ex-husband's voice carried a hoarse plea, "I know I did many wrong things over these years, but many times, I was also helpless..."

Tang Ye, hiding in the shadows, felt his throat tighten slightly.

He knew that Cheng Lin still harbored old feelings for this ex-husband.

The two grew up as childhood sweethearts, but as they lived abroad, the marriage shattered.

Decades of affection were like an old tree with tangled roots; how could it be severed just by saying so?

Yet when the request for remarriage fell, he felt it was not a wise choice and felt a bit anxious for Cheng Lin!

——The mistress who destroyed their marriage back then had contacted Sister Lin privately, and the things she said were as nasty as could be.

The ex-husband was also using the marriage as a stepping stone; what is the point of turning back now?

Even a good horse doesn't eat the grass it has already turned away from...

"Qin Mingyuan, we have been divorced for five years." Cheng Lin's voice was as cold as ice, "There is no need to bring up the past again."

Cheng Lin's words made the heart Tang Ye had been holding drop instantly.

As expected, Cheng Lin was still rational.

The man suddenly stepped forward half a pace, forcing Cheng Lin toward the wall.

"I did some research before seeing you. If you had a better choice, I would turn around and leave immediately, not entangle myself with you. But what is this about you being entangled with a married man now? With your qualifications, you could completely find someone better..."

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Cheng Lin was greatly shocked, her voice suddenly rising.

Tang Ye felt that Qin Mingyuan was talking nonsense!

Cheng Lin's work and life were very regular every day.

If there really were this "secret," how could he be completely unaware?

He held his breath, countless emotions churning within him.

"Don't pretend, Cheng Lin! When I was abroad, you were already hooking up with him, right? To get him transferred to your side, you secretly helped him get promoted repeatedly... Externally, I took the reputation of 'cheating' for you, but in reality, you had already changed your heart long ago. So neither of us should look down on the other for being dirty!"

"Enough! Qin Mingyuan! Do not involve others in our relationship, and even less so in baseless rumors." Cheng Lin's voice carried a suppressed tremor, "I will say it again, remarriage is absolutely impossible!"

Tang Ye, in the shadows, only felt a surge of hot blood rush to the top of his head!

Damn it... I was just secretly eating some gossip, how did it end up on my own head?

Qin Mingyuan saw Cheng Lin turn to leave.

In his desperation, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm.

"Lin, give me one more chance!"

Cheng Lin shook him off forcefully, but he actually chased after her quickly and hugged her tightly from behind.

"As long as you are willing to remarry, I won't hold any of the past against you."

Cheng Lin struggled to push him away with her arms, angrily scolding in a low voice: "Qin Mingyuan, get a grip! If you keep pestering me, I'll call for help!"

Qin Mingyuan knew Cheng Lin's weakness!

As the Deputy County Party Secretary of Suiyuan County, this female official had always been cautious about her private life, and the divorce remained a secret to this day.

She would never dare to make a scene.

"I know you won't make a scene. If things get blown out of proportion, both of you will have your reputations ruined!"

Cheng Lin was trembling all over with anger: "I warn you again, don't drag unrelated people into this!"

"Fine," Qin Mingyuan raised his eyebrows triumphantly, "As long as you agree to remarry, I guarantee I'll keep my mouth shut. Otherwise, tomorrow a report letter will be placed on your colleague's desk."

Before he could finish speaking.

He suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder.

Before he could react.

A fist the size of a sandbag smashed fiercely into his left cheek.

Qin Mingyuan staggered backward, and before he could stand steady, his abdomen was hit by another fierce kick.

His whole body curled up on the ground like a shrimp, vomiting his dinner along with sour bile.

When Cheng Lin saw clearly that the person who arrived was Tang Ye, her heart was instantly flooded with complex emotions.

When did he appear?

How much of the conversation between her and Qin Mingyuan did he actually hear?

The two had always gotten along as siblings; would this shake that relationship now?

The usually calm and rational Cheng Lin was a bit dazed for a moment.

Qin Mingyuan's wailing dragged Cheng Lin back to reality.

She hurriedly stepped forward to grab Tang Ye.

"Stop hitting him, don't kill anyone!"

Tang Ye retracted his right foot hanging in mid-air and turned to look at her with concern.

"Sister, are you okay? Who is he! Should we call the Police?"

Tang Ye started acting!

The plot setting was like this: he pretended to be passing by, bumped into Cheng Lin being harassed, and then acted righteously, knowing nothing about what had happened before.

At this moment, this way of handling it was undoubtedly the most appropriate.

"No need, forget it..."

Cheng Lin couldn't tell for a moment whether Tang Ye had heard those things Qin Mingyuan said.

If she really called the Police, the matter would definitely blow up, and perhaps by tomorrow, the entire Suiyuan County would know.

Qin Mingyuan struggled to lift his head, and after seeing Tang Ye's face clearly, anger burst from his eyes: "I wondered who it was, so it turns out your lover has arrived!"

Tang Ye didn't wait for Qin Mingyuan to finish speaking, lifting his foot and kicking him in the face: "What nonsense are you spouting? What lover?"

Tang Ye's posture of acting as soon as he spoke stunned Qin Mingyuan!

This kid has none of the self-awareness a "third wheel" should have.

Could he have been mistaken?

"My name is Qin Mingyuan, and I am Cheng Lin's ex-husband!" He said, clutching his cheek and grimacing, "I came to talk to her about remarrying! I know you, your name is Tang Ye!"

A look of surprise and astonishment slowly appeared on Tang Ye's face!

"Ah? This is such a mess... it really is a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple! I saw someone holding Sister Lin from afar just now and thought it was a bad person with ulterior motives. Aren't you abroad? I didn't react in time, I'm truly sorry! I hit a bit too hard just now, but that was because I didn't know who you were. However, I must make things clear to you. She is my sister, and everything between us is pure and innocent, so please don't misunderstand!"

Faced with Tang Ye's explanation, Qin Mingyuan was completely stunned.

Perhaps he had misunderstood the relationship between Tang Ye and Cheng Lin?

Tang Ye hurriedly helped Qin Mingyuan up from the ground, his face full of sincere apology: "I didn't know my own strength just now, brother. You're hurt quite badly, shall I take you to the hospital?"

Qin Mingyuan looked up at him, seeing that the expression of regret and concern was so genuine it had no flaws, and he was momentarily dazed: "That won't be necessary, it's just a superficial wound."

"How can that be!" Tang Ye would not take no for an answer; he grabbed his arm, his tone exceptionally serious, "You must go to the hospital for a check-up."

A taxi happened to drive by, and Tang Ye raised his hand to flag it down.

Cheng Lin watched as Tang Ye half-supported and half-dragged Qin Mingyuan into the car.

Before leaving, he deliberately winked at her.

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly: her younger brother's acting skills were becoming increasingly masterful.

He played both the bad cop and the good cop all by himself.

But upon further reflection, she realized the brilliance of it.

Tang Ye used this method to both vent his anger and eliminate the suspicion in Qin Mingyuan's heart.

Her phone soon received a text message—

"Sister, I'm taking the ex-husband brother to the hospital. I will explain this matter clearly to him, you go back and rest."
