Chapter 6 Is The Child Not His

  • Right then, there was faint perspiration on Qin Shuhan's pale forehead. Her frail body was burning up as if she was in an oven. She bit her lips and repeated, “Don't touch me!”
  • She fainted the moment she finished.
  • When she woke up, she was already at the hospital and the man sitting by her bedside was her ex-boyfriend, Qi Sihuan.
  • He sat on the chair with a grimace on his face. There was unspeakable sorrow in his eyes.
  • “Are you awake?” When Qin Shuhan opened her eyes, he gently asked.
  • Qin Shuhan supported herself up. The color in her face had returned, and she leaned against the bed frame. She glanced at the clothes that she was wearing. Luckily, they were still intact.
  • Qi Sihuan watched her slight movements and said solemnly, “I'll send you home.”
  • “We have broken up.” Qin Shuhan did not wait for Qi Sihuan to finish. She lifted her head to see his shocked expression and said, “Let's never meet again in the future.”
  • Qi Sihuan mocked, “Did you take me as a fool all these years?”
  • “I did not.” Qin Shuhan shook her head.
  • Qi Sihuan furiously stood up. “Why else did you run away and not return for six years? What wrong have I committed that made you break up with me? Have you ever loved me?”
  • Facing the enraged ex-boyfriend, Qin Shuhan was exceptionally calm. She grasped the blanket and stayed silent for a while before gently saying, “I did love you. However, time waits for no one, and things are different now. I think you know it too. I don't need you anymore, so let's break up.”
  • “Is it because of him?” Qi Sihuan asked as he tried to suppress the jealousy he felt.
  • Qin Shuhan was confused. “Him?”
  • Qi Sihuan thought he knew Qin Shuhan's character and brought out a big briefcase without saying a word. He opened the briefcase which was filled with cash.
  • Qin Shuhan frowned. “What is the meaning of this?”
  • “Leave him and return the child to him. Come with me instead,” Qi Sihuan said sternly.
  • Qin Shuhan was confused with his words that came out of nowhere. Did she not make herself clear earlier? Did Qi Sihuan not understand?
  • “Hanhan, President Wang has a wife and a family. You don't have to commit the rest of your life to him. If you cannot bear to leave his child, I...” Qi Sihuan's voice trailed off. Without a doubt, he was unable to accept a stranger's child.
  • Conflicted emotions and pain tangled in his heart. He gazed at the face that he had longed for and hesitated for a while before he decided, “If you cannot bear to leave his child, I can help you raise him. However, you cannot abandon me again.”
  • “Who told you that Tiantian is President Wang's son?” Qin Shuhan curiously asked.
  • “Is he not? Did you not leave for him then...” Qi Sihuan's voice trailed off again.
  • Qin Shuhan lifted the blanket and got out of bed. She did not spare a glance at the money in the briefcase at all before closing it up. “I will raise the child on my own. We’re through, so don't bother looking for me ever again. Thank you for saving me last night.”
  • Qin Shuhan turned to leave after she finished.
  • She was determined to end this relationship.
  • There was no need for anyone's pity. No one had the right to take away Tiantian from her!
  • In hasty steps, Qin Shuhan walked briskly, and she did not hear what Qi Sihuan had to say after that. The first thing she intended to do after she left the hospital was to find Qin Tiantian at the Qin family's residence.
  • But Qin Suer was not at home, and Hu Meifeng was nowhere in sight either. The maids were frantically trying to clean up the warehouse that Qin Tiantian had burned. When Qin Shuhan came, no one bothered about her as they thought that she was just one of the neighbors who had come to see the commotion.
  • Knowing that Qin Tiantian had escaped, she let out a breath of relief. However, she became anxious shortly. Tiantian is still young, and it is his first time here in Yun City. Where could he have escaped to?
  • Qin Shuhan borrowed a passerby's phone and dialed Tiantian's number. A kind female voice sounded at the other end of the line, and Qin Shuhan could not help but glance at the number again. There was no mistake; it was Qin Tiantian's number.
  • “Hello, Mommy?” A child's voice suddenly echoed from the phone.
  • Qin Shuhan's heart leaped with joy. “Tiantian? Where are you?”
  • “Tiantian is at a very kind granny's house.” Tiantian voice sounded lively and happy.
  • Qin Shuhan said, “What granny? Tell me your exact location. I will go over to pick you up now.”
  • “I'm in the Fuqiang Region. Mommy, don't worry. Granny is a kind person, and she is extremely nice to me, but she is currently not at home. If I were to leave now, she would be very sad,” Tiantian softly explained in a sweet voice.
  • After knowing that he was in good hands, she let out a sigh of relief. “Alright then, you can stay there for a few days. Mommy will fetch you after work.”
  • “Okay!” Tiantian obediently nodded his head.
  • Qin Shuhan returned the phone to the passerby and left after she thanked him. Her luggage and phone were still in the hotel. Luckily, Qin Suer's men left after she escaped, so Qin Shuhan managed to get her luggage and check out of the room.
  • “Did you hear the news? Mr. Feng was attacked last night.”
  • “My goodness, who was it? He must be very daring!”
  • “The surveillance tape was taken by Mr. Feng. I am not sure who it was, but he was furious when he left. I guess that intruder is in grave trouble!”
  • Qin Shuhan's hands trembled while holding onto the deposit from the checkout.
  • The staff at the front desk smiled and said, “Miss, your money is about to drop.”
  • “Oh,” Qin Shuhan responded. She dragged her luggage and quickly left.
  • There were two reasons for her return to Yun City. The first one was to find out who that man was from six years ago. The second one was that she had applied for a position in the Diye Group and had to come here for an interview.
  • She rented a room near the Diye Group's office. In the afternoon, Qin Shuhan got changed and went for the interview. Everything was going smoothly, but Qin Shuhan did not notice that someone was staring at her.
  • In the president's office, Chen Yan, who had to hold in his laughter the whole morning, looked at the president who was squeezing Qin Shuhan's resume into a ball.
  • This woman, Qin Shuhan is really vicious!
  • It was one thing to have attacked our president and escape, yet she still had the nerve to show up at our company for an interview!
  • Is she trying to embarrass him with the incident last night?
  • “President, should I get rid of her?” Chen Yan asked.
  • It was hard to read Feng Lanhe's eyes. He threw her resume into the bin and spat, “You don't have to!”
  • “Then...” Chen Yan did not understand.
  • Feng Lanhe replied, “Since she is already here, there is no reason to let her go. However, this position is not suitable for her. Tell the Human Resource Department to let her work in the warehouse, then...”
  • A sinister chuckle escaped his lips.
  • Qin Shuhan, who was waiting for the result, was disappointed to know that she was offered a position in the warehouse instead.
  • The manager was afraid that she would leave, so he specially came over to comfort her, “Our company's top executives all started from the bottom. You have good attributes and would definitely become a permanent employee in a month. In three months, your salary will be increased, and you will be promoted to become a manager in five months. Additionally, our salary is especially high. Compared to the other companies, we are offered twice as much. Please stay. We need people like you!”
