“Xiangwan, if you want my bracelet, I’ll definitely give it to you,” Su Xinyue interrupted her with tears. “I even let you have Beiting, why do you still hate me so much? As long as you ask, I can give you anything, but why do you want to take my life?”

Her tearful voice, coupled with the bloodstains on her body, made everyone present look at Qin Xiangwan with disdain.

Qin Xiangwan gritted her teeth. “Su Xinyue, stop acting. You stabbed yourself with this knife-”

Pa!

A heavy slap interrupted her words.

Qin Xiangwan covered her face in disbelief and looked at Fu Beiting.

Fu Beiting put down his arm and shouted with blood shot eyes, “Qin Xiangwan, how else are you going to hurt Xinyue? I really want to dig your heart out to see if it’s completely black!”

“It wasn’t me!” Qin Xiangwan covered her face and shouted at him.

However, Fu Beiting slapped her again.

“Arrest this vicious woman, and make her pay this time,” Fu Beiting said coldly, word by word. “Also, Qin Xiangwan, I’ll agree to your request now. We’ll get a divorce immediately.”

Su Xinyue leaned against Fu Beiting’s arm and smiled victoriously.

In the end, she won.

The slap was so hard that Qin Xiangwan fell to the ground. Blood oozed out from the corner of her mouth.

Her head buzzed and her vision turned dark.

Yet, the burning pain on her cheek was vivid.

However, she didn’t seem to feel anything anymore. The waves of pain from her heart seemed to have crushed her entire body.

There was also a contraction of pain in her abdomen as she felt another warm current flow out of her.

Her white dress was once again stained with blood.

Qin Xiangwan lifted her teary eyes and looked at Fu Beiting, who was hugging Su Xinyue.

Fu Beiting didn’t spare her a single look. He held the girl in his arms anxiously, his handsome face filled with undisguised concern.

“Xinyue, how are you? Nothing must happen to you. Wake up, I’m here. I’ll make this vicious woman pay…”

A few bodyguards walked towards Qin Xiangwan. “Madam, I’m sorry. President Fu asked us to arrest you and send you to the police station.”

Qin Xiangwan held the bracelet in her hand tightly.

She didn’t want to go to jail…

If she went to jail, the media would make a fuss about it and the Qin family would be humiliated.

She had already harmed the entire Qin family and caused her father’s death. She could not tarnish the reputation of the entire family again now.

This was her sin and she should bear it alone.

All of a sudden, Qin Xiangwan stood up abruptly. She pushed away the bodyguard in front of her and ran out of the ward unsteadily.

She ran as fast as she could without looking back.

She had to leave this place!

“Catch her and send her to jail!” The sound of messy footsteps and the angry shouts of the bodyguards came from behind.

Qin Xiangwan used all her strength and ran.

She kept running forward, out of the hospital corridor and onto the streets.

The night was as cold as water. The evening wind blew her hair, and her bloodstained skirt fluttered in the wind like a blooming flower.

Her bare feet were cut by gravel.

It was as if Qin Xiangwan did not feel anything. She only wanted to run forward.

There were drops of blood on the ground where she ran past.

However, Qin Xiangwan no longer cared about that. She no longer wanted to stay here and watch Fu Beiting and Su Xinyue hugging each other.

Her sweaty palms could not hold on to the smooth jade bracelet as she ran.

Clang!

The jade bracelet slipped out of her hand and smashed onto the ground, shattering into countless pieces.

“No!” Qin Xiangwan screamed and lunged towards the jade bracelet in a panic.

They had taken everything from her. This was the only thing she had left!

Screech!

An ear-piercing screech of brakes!

Qin Xiangwan’s body flew.

She was hit hard by a speeding sedan.

There seemed to be a scream but Qin Xiangwan could no longer feel it. She felt no pain, nor were there tears. She felt as though she had obtained an unprecedented freedom.

Before the darkness arrived, Qin Xiangwan shut her eyes and finally revealed a smile.
