Chapter 191: The Return Date Hasn’t Been Set
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
However, she just couldn’t hold her anger in and wanted to teach Song Chuchu a lesson.
In the evening, Changqing lounged comfortably on a pink float in the pool, admiring the moon.
What a comfortable life.
Changqing ate a biscuit and made splashes with her feet from time to time. She sighed. If only Duoyao was a man—she would definitely marry Duoyao.
She hummed a little tune.
In no time at all, the doorbell outside rang. She thought the delivery had arrived.
She quickly climbed back on land and covered herself with a towel as she walked towards the door.
When she got there, she didn’t see the delivery man. Instead, she saw Song Chuyi standing tall, dressed in a shirt. She got such a fright that her legs shivered and she quickly turned to run away.
Song Chuyi was so furious he wanted to murder her. He came over all the way with his rage and this woman was actually swimming leisurely in someone else’s backyard and even wanted to run away. How lawless.
He pulled the gate of the main door and with a swift climb, he flipped over easily.
Changqing turned back and was dumbfounded. She tripped on something and fell on the grass.
Changqing’s body shrank. She got up, turning around to run away.
He ran over quickly and pulled her into his chest that was as sturdy as metal.
“You still want to run? Where are you running to?” Song Chuyi’s cold face was as dark as the sky before a storm. “Didn’t you tell me you were on a business trip out of town and your return date wasn’t set yet? Yan Changqing, did I dote on you too much that you’re now trying different ways to prank me? Do you think I wouldn’t dare to do anything to you?”
He had never been so embarrassed.
Who dared to prank him? When he was young, his classmates played a prank on him and he dragged the person to the toilet straight away and dunked his head into the toilet bowl.
Today, he had utterly lost all face. Wherever he went, everyone was laughing. He almost couldn’t lift his head up.
His face was twisted and his eyes were filled with maleficence.
Changqing really got a fright. She recalled how Song Chuyi beat Guan Ying’s father up. Would he beat her up like that too?
Changqing’s face was pale and she regretted it. Was she mad yesterday? If she was angry, she could’ve just ignored him; why must she provoke a wild beast? Perhaps she really didn’t realized her limits lately.
However, she still had to justify herself.
Her pale lips moved. “It was because after I logged into your Weibo, I saw your username. You were the person who usually disses me in the comments section. I got angry for a moment…”
“Who gave you the right to log into my Weibo?” Song Chuyi said in a low and cold tone.
Changqing was stunned. Her huge, dark eyes seemed to have dimmed all of a sudden. “Sorry… I won’t touch your things again in the future.”
For some reason, not only did Song Chuyi not feel better, but he felt even angrier and grabbed her thin shoulders subconsciously, looking at her murderously.
Changqing was in pain from his grip.
At this moment, the voice of the Security Officer came from the door. “Miss, are you alright inside? We just saw a man entering your house from the surveillance camera.”
Changqing opened her mouth and wanted to shout. Song Chuyi suddenly covered her mouth and pulled her bikini off. His gaze was eerie. “If you dare to let them come in, they’ll see you like this.”
Changqing only felt a sense of chill she had never felt before. Not just physically but emotionally. She opened her eyes wide to look at him as though seeing him for the first time and her eyes moistened.
Song Chuyi saw her damp eyes and frowned for a while, letting go of her mouth.
Changqing lowered her head and settled down, saying towards the door, “I’m okay. I had a fight with my friend but we’re good now.”
“Are you really okay?” The Security Officer was still a little worried.
“It’s true; he’s my husband,” Changqing explained once again.
“Alright then, we’ll head back first.”
After hearing the footsteps leave, Changqing covered her body and said in a feeble voice with her head hung low, “Can I put my clothes back on?”
Song Chuyi lowered his head and saw her clear skin under the moonlight. She wasn’t wearing shoes and her two hands were covering her chest. There were teardrops hanging on her eyelashes.
Changqing only wanted this long battle to end quickly. However, it didn’t seem like it would end. In the end, she really couldn’t endure it anymore. She closed her eyes and when she fainted, she couldn’t even remember what time it was; she only knew the half-moon outside was exceptionally round and exceptionally bright.
When it ended, Song Chuyi stopped and he also felt that his body was extremely fatigued.
He looked at the woman lying on the floor. She was curled up in a ball, lying on her side. Her eyes were shut tight weakly and on her back, a layer of delicate skin had been scraped off in several spots.
Only then did he seem to awaken from a nightmare.
What did he do just now? He actually bullied her like the devil. She was crying about the pain in her back but he just didn’t care. At that time, he was only telling himself that he was taking revenge on her for posting the photo and causing him to lose face. He gave himself an excuse. If he didn’t teach her a lesson, she would do it again.
He purposely neglected her thin and delicate skin and also neglected her pain.
He felt an inexplicable sense of pain from his heart and even felt flustered.
He quickly carried her and placed her carefully on the soft couch.
There was no first-aid kit in this unfamiliar house. He cleaned up quickly and stumbled out. Luckily, there was a clinic in the district. He bought some band-aids and antiseptic and rushed back in a hurry, helping her disinfect every wound gently. Every time the cotton bud touched her wounds, she would shudder. Her brows would overflow with fragility and tears would seep out from her eyes.
She waved her arms around with a face full of fear.
Song Chuyi felt unable to breathe for a moment.
What had he done?
Suddenly, her various expressions flashed past his mind. When she was mischievous, when she was shy, when she was naughty, angry, kind, cute…
He didn’t realize she had already left such a deep mark on him.
When he recalled everything, there was laughter, anger, and warmth.
She was actually just a little mischievous. Just like a little child who hadn’t grown up.
If she did something wrong, he could just scold her. Why did he do that to her?
He lowered his head and held her hand. He bent down to carry her and coaxed gently, “No more. It doesn’t hurt; don’t cry, Changqing…”
Changqing suddenly opened her eyes and when she felt this familiar embrace, the first thing she thought of was that invasive and aggressive body.
“Let go of me.” She struggled to push him away as she shrank into a ball towards the other side of the couch. She was just like a little doe who shut herself in tightly after being harmed by a lion.
Song Chuyi couldn’t breathe.
He thought of the scene whenever he had to administer anesthetics on little children before every operation. Some children were afraid they would never wake up again after the anesthesia and treated him like he was a monster.
Now, she was like that too.
“Changqing, can you come over here first?” He was filled with regret and said gently, “Let me help you treat your wounds. I didn’t have any intentions of harming you…”
“You did.” Changqing stared at him with her eyes red. “I said I was in pain, but you ignored me. Yes, it was wrong of me to post on your Weibo but you didn’t have to act like this. What’s the difference between you and a beast?”
Song Chuyi tightened his grip on the cotton bud. Alright, his actions were those of a beast. He just couldn’t understand why he was so irrational back then. He just wanted her.
“I really can’t take it with you acting like this.” Changqing wiped the tears on her face with the back of her hand. “I think you should go look for other women. I think only women outside can satisfy your perverted ways. I won’t hinder you. It doesn’t matter how many you women you want at a time.”
Song Chuyi recalled that a few doctors and directors in the hospital would always complain that their wives were too strict with them every time they got drunk during a gathering and they would usually check their phones for no reason. If there were too many women going out together, they would be scolded when they returned.
The men who lived within the walls of marriage would often yearn to be like the free and unmarried men outside the walls.
Men would often say that they wanted to marry as late as they could, that they wanted to play while they could.
However, now, his wife was telling him to look for other women.
Why was he unable to feel happy at all?
He lowered his head and looked at her. His gaze became cold. “Stop spouting nonsense; turn around. I’ll treat your wounds.”
Changqing pressed her swollen lips together tightly and lowered her head as she stayed silent for a long while.
Song Chuyi held her shoulder and dipped the cotton bud in medicine. When he was about to apply it on her, she struck the medicine and the cotton bud in his hands to the floor suddenly like a little wild beast.
The house was dead quiet after the sound of the glass shattered. Song Chuyi locked his eyes on her.
Changqing was frightened from his gaze and suddenly thought about what happened just now. She was afraid it would happen again. The pain was enough to make her want to leave this person quickly.
“It’s nothing serious; I don’t need medicine. It will be fine in a few days.” Changqing turned her face around to look for her clothes. She needed to put her clothes on quickly but her swimsuit was thrown on the grass just now and her clothes were more than a meter away from her, on another couch.
He was still holding on to her shoulder and didn’t move. The depths of his eyes couldn’t be seen.
“What do you want?” Changqing was exhausted. “Do you still want it? I’m sorry; I’m afraid I won’t be able to satisfy you.”
“What do you take me for?” Song Chuyi was so angry he didn’t know what to say. What did she mean? Did she take him to be a beast?
Changqing was speechless for a while.
Could there be anything else other than a beast?
“Can you let me put my clothes on first?” Changqing said, “There’s no Security Officer outside now. He won’t catch you either. Can I put my clothes on now?”
“Yan Changqing…” He tightened his grip from anger.
Changqing’s bones were quite fragile, and she felt a sharp pain in no time. Her eyes welled up with tears once again. She wanted to cry but she had cried out most of her tears just now.
Song Chuyi saw the pain in her eyes and loosened his grip once again but discovered it to be too late. There was already a large patch of red on her shoulder.
He was stunned. He didn’t know whether he was too strong or her skin was too fragile.
He felt regretful all of a sudden too.
Changqing didn’t say anything. She only walked to the other side to put on her clothes by herself.
