Chapter 9 Walk All Over Me

  • Muqing was gasping for air as the luggage she was carrying weighed her down.
  • On the other end, Xie Tiansheng remained silent.
  • “Xie Tiansheng, what's the password?! This is my house, so you have no right to banish me from my own home!” Muqing vented her anger as she screamed angrily into the speaker.
  • She summoned all her determination to force down the tears welling up in her eyes.
  • “19880316.” Xie Tiansheng finally revealed the password.
  • He continued, “Xia Muqing, pack your belongings and get the hell out of the house! Also, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to sign our divorce paper tomorrow at 9 o'clock sharp in the morning!”
  • Xie Tiansheng hung up the phone before Muqing could give her response.
  • All she could do was stand before the door in a daze.
  • When she slowly regained her senses, all she could hear was the beeping sound from the call that was cut off.
  • “Xie Tiansheng, you should be the one to get the hell out of this house! This is my house! My house!” Muqing yelled hysterically toward the speaker to vent her resentment for the insults she had received.
  • Muqing fell seated on her luggage as her eyes turned unfocused, feeling drained all of a sudden.
  • Muqing did not know how long she sat in front of the doors in a daze, she only managed to recollect herself after she saw the neighbor living next door returning home, she got up and entered the security combination.
  • 19880316....
  • The combination seemed familiar to Muqing. She knew the numbers from somewhere, but she was not in the mood to care about that at that time. However, Muqing felt her world crumbled when she finally remembered what the numbers were meant for....
  • Muqing's emotions were in turmoil when she acknowledged the truth.
  • Muqing entered the house and unpacked her luggage, then she went to the kitchen as soon as she had changed into her casual outfit.
  • She noticed that Xie Tiansheng had substituted the apron in the kitchen with a new one.
  • She was surprised and pleased at the same time. That was the first time Xie Tiansheng had taken the initiative to make some changes around the house in the 2 years of their marriage.
  • Muqing felt her anger dissipated a little. She was stunned by the well-filled fridge with cooking ingredients when she opened the refrigerator to prepare for dinner.
  • All kinds of fruits and vegetables were stashed to the brink within the fridge but what shocked Muqing the most, were the rows of original-flavored yoghurts that lined neatly at the edge of the fridge.
  • Tiansheng hated yoghurt the most, but they're my favorite! I'm content even if it's not the flavor that I fancy.
  • Muqing could not help but grinned happily at the unbelievable sight.
  • Tiansheng, you're not as heartless toward me as I thought after all....
  • “Beep- You've entered the correct password.”
  • Muqing was stunned as she heard the automated voice of the security door being unlocked.
  • She hesitated for a split second, but exited the kitchen anyway to welcome her husband home with a wide smile on her face.
  • The two of them exchanged glances at the living room.
  • “Tiansheng....” Muqing greeted him softly.
  • Xie Tiansheng seemed to be living well since the last time Muqing saw him. At least he did not lose any weight.
  • Muqing, on the other hand, could be said otherwise, she had missed him terribly as she did not receive any updates from him. Muqing had lived her days in a horrible state during the past month from missing Xie Tiansheng and has since lost more than 5 kilograms.
  • Xie Tiansheng's eyes darted from the apron on Muqing to the yoghurt in her hand.
  • “Who allowed you to wear that apron?” Xie Tiansheng spoke in an unpleasant tone, he stepped forward and snatched the yoghurt from her hand, then he took the apron off Muqing in a rough manner. “Xia Muqing, you're not qualified to touch these items, they do not belong to you! Let me remind you again that you're no longer welcome in this house! Pack your stuff up and get lost!”
  • Xie Tiansheng's voice boomed across the living room as he enunciated the words 'get lost' loudly, in Xia Muqing's face.
  • “What... what do you mean?” Muqing felt her throat dry. She pointed at the yoghurt in Xie Tiansheng's hand and asked, “You're saying that these are not for me?”
  • She spoke weakly, “Then... then to whom did all those things belong to? Who is she? Xie Tiansheng, tell me who is the woman?”
  • Muqing lost her rationality as she buried herself in Xie Tiansheng's arms and hit his firm chest repeatedly, “Xie Tiansheng, tell me, who is the woman that had seduced you? What made you fall so deeply for her...” she sobbed.
  • Muqing leaned against his chest and broke down in tears.
  • “That's enough, Xia Muqing! Stop acting crazy!” Xie Tiansheng yanked her body and pushed her away onto the sofa without any mercy.
  • He stood overbearingly in his spot and said, “I'll repeat this again. That woman's identity has got nothing to do with you!”
  • Xie Tiansheng was about to leave when he paused and warned Muqing, “Don't you dare touch her belongings!”
  • “Bastard! Xie Tiansheng, you're a bastard! You're a devil!”
  • Xie Tiansheng only ignored her.
  • Muqing proceeded to clean the house when a black-colored lingerie entered her vision, tears started welling up in her eyes again.
  • So, another woman had invaded our home in the past month when I was gone. She even won over my husband...
  • Muqing's hands trembled greatly as she held the sexy lingerie.
  • Xie Tiansheng, if not for my love for you, I would have never allowed you to walk all over me like this!
