Chapter 60: Chu Li Realizes He Has Made a Grave Mistake

~8 min read 1,413 words

Qin Xingwan did not move, leaning against the car window with her eyes closed to rest, only hoping to reach the Yiyuan quickly.

The next second, her arm was yanked, and she was forced to fall into the man's embrace.

Summer clothing is thin, and almost immediately, Qin Xingwan felt the scorching body temperature of Chu Li.

She saw that a patch of his shirt was soaked.

Thinking of Cheng Mingzhu, Qin Xingwan felt angry and patted his shoulder.

"Let go."

The next second, her whole body froze.

Her pale face flushed with a mix of shame and annoyance.

She knew the changes in his body better than anyone.

Chu Li had been abstinent for a while, and the woman in his arms was soaked through, her white slip dress clinging to her body, revealing every inch of her exquisite curves the moment he looked down.

Despite the dishevelment, she was full of feminine charm.

He reached out and pressed a switch; as the partition rose, he kissed her pale lips.

Qin Xingwan struggled, and the words she spoke were very unpleasant, "Chu Li, we are already divorced."

"We are still in the divorce cooling-off period."

"There are only three days left."

"I have said it before, even if there is only one day left, you are still Mrs. Chu."

With only one day left, she was still his wife.

Qin Xingwan's body trembled slightly, her fingernails digging into his arms, biting her lip to keep herself from making shameful sounds.

The driver parked the car in the courtyard of Beicheng Villa and left at lightning speed, his face flushed red.

Qin Xingwan was a mess.

Chu Li ordered the servant to bring a blanket and carried her out of the car.

Qin Xingwan dared not struggle, fearing the blanket would slip and someone would see her wretched state.

Once inside the master bedroom, the man who had endured the whole way completely unleashed his wildness.

He was urgent, his movements savage.

Clothes were tangled on the floor.

The corners of Qin Xingwan's eyes were bright red; she resisted, yet could not help but moan aloud.

"We cannot do this."

She had clearly said such heartless words to him, so why were they entangled together again now?

This is wrong.

Yet she was powerless to resist.

In the end, her slender white arms could only choose to hold him tight amidst the storm.

When passion reached its peak, he and she interlaced their fingers, perfectly matched.

After showering and lying on the soft bed, Chu Li felt satisfied in body and mind.

He gently stroked her smooth back, full of tenderness.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips lingeringly, "Xingwan, let's not divorce, okay?"

Qin Xingwan turned on her side, back to him, her voice hoarse, "What about Cheng Mingzhu? She is your fiancée, after all."

Chu Li frowned, "I haven't even divorced yet, where would a fiancée come from?"

Qin Xingwan's eyes were moist; they had appeared together arm-in-arm, their relationship intimate.

"You soon will be."

Once divorced, Cheng Mingzhu would be his legitimate fiancée.

Chu Li's heart went cold, "I have said it before, the matter with Grandmother was a misunderstanding. As for Cheng Mingzhu, she and I only have some childhood acquaintance. Don't you dislike me? Why do you care about these things?"

Qin Xingwan stopped speaking.

The warmth dissolved into silence.

She wanted to tell him what terrible things Old Master Chu had done, but she dared not.

She did not want to gamble with her grandmother's life.

"Chu Li, you and Miss Cheng are very well-matched," she said softly, her face full of tears.

Chu Li stared at her back and suddenly felt it was pointless.

In her heart, he was nothing.

"Since that is the case, then what is this?"

He sneered mockingly, "I have a fiancée, so what are you, lying in my bed?"

"Do you need me to pay you?"

The harsh and malicious words drilled into Qin Xingwan's eardrums, one by one.

She clutched the quilt, even her breathing filled with pain.

He held her in such contempt.

She sat up holding the quilt, her voice trembling uncontrollably.

"Chu Li, it was you who forced me."

Chu Li curled his lips in mockery, "Forced you? I admit, at first, I forced you."

"But later, when your legs were wrapped around my waist, didn't you enjoy it quite a bit?"

Qin Xingwan's face turned white inch by inch, her moist eyes filled with disbelief.

He used such filthy language to humiliate her.

Trampling her self-respect into the ground.

She got out of bed without a word, picked up the wet clothes from the floor, and trembling, put them on one by one.

Her fingers shook, and it took several tries to fasten the buttons.

Chu Li watched in silence.

Until she pulled open the door to the master bedroom and ran out.

Chu Li's expression was ugly to the extreme; he cursed, threw on some clothes, and chased after her.

However, there was already no sign of Qin Xingwan downstairs.

A servant carrying the freshly brewed medicine looked around, "Where is Madam? The medicine is ready."

Before Chu Li returned, he had called to instruct the servant to brew the medicine.

Qin Xingwan's, and also Grandmother's.

He had gone to Old Yu's place specifically because he calculated that her medicine had run out.

Cheng Mingzhu just happened to be met at the door.

It would have been one thing if she had misunderstood, but she had said those things on purpose.

Chu Li rubbed his brow; it was still raining outside, so he grabbed his car keys and chased out.

Just as he left the house, he ran into Assistant Wu, who was hurrying over.

"President Chu, President Qin wants to see you."

Chu Li was in a fit of anger, his tone unkind, "No time."

He had no time, yet Qin Jianguo was already at the door.

Seeing Chu Li come out, he held an umbrella and stepped forward, saying ingratiatingly, "A Li."

Chu Li's brows were cold and his eyes icy: "Something up?"

Qin Jianguo began: "About Ashen..."

Chu Li's cold gaze swept over him, "Thirty seconds."

Qin Jianguo swallowed, "Making Grandmother leave the hospital was Old Master Chu's idea."

He quickly explained everything, from how Old Master Chu found him and gave him access, to demanding he take away Qin Xingwan and Qin Nainai.

"The Old Master said that since Qin Xingwan refused to divorce, this was her punishment, and he also said that if I forced her to get the divorce certificate with you, he would give me an investment of one billion."

In short, everything was Old Master Chu's doing.

Actually, he hadn't intended to come, but Old Master Chu refused to see him, and he couldn't just watch his son be sent abroad, so he gritted his teeth and came to find Chu Li.

Chu Li's head was buzzing, his face pale.

He realized he had made a huge mistake.

A grave, grave mistake.

He pushed Qin Jianguo aside, walked a few steps, then turned back, asking him expressionlessly: "Did you see Xingwan just now?"

Qin Jianguo was stunned, "I did."

At the time, he was sitting in the car, thinking about what he should say to move Chu Li and how to push all the responsibility onto Old Master Chu.

By the time he had decided and was ready to get out of the car, he saw Qin Xingwan rush out from the main gate, without an umbrella, soaked through, her face as white as a ghost.

He was preoccupied with Ashen's situation and paid no attention to Qin Xingwan.

Besides, in such heavy rain, he didn't want to get himself wet either.

Chu Li didn't speak, his whole body surging with coldness.

Qin Jianguo felt a bit guilty and wanted to say something to cover up his own cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness.

But Chu Li had already gotten into the car; the car started normally and was originally heading toward the gate, but it suddenly accelerated and swerved toward him, driving past almost brushing against Qin Jianguo.

Qin Jianguo was so scared he sat down on the ground, covered in water.

Once the car disappeared from sight, he climbed up, his face pale.

"A Li... his driving skills are this bad?"

Assistant Wu couldn't help but roll his eyes.

President Qin really is both bad... and stupid!
