Chapter 254

Author: Qin Ruoxu MACHINE TRANSLATION

The beautiful lights of the villa made the falling white snowflakes more dazzling. Through the window, specks of shadows came in and landed on the petite and beautiful back of the girl, like a person in a painting.

She tied up her hair in front of her head and tied it into a round Bun. The rest of her hair fell naturally, making her look like a student who had not graduated. She was very young.

She helped Zhou Lanqing lie flat on the ground. Using professional first aid skills, she gave Zhou Lanqing quick and efficient first aid.

Five minutes later, Zhou Lanqing’s breathing returned to normal. Her face also looked much better. It was no longer so pale that there was no color at all.

She then picked up the spray and sprayed it into Zhou Lanqing’s mouth. She called the bodyguards around her and asked them to help Carry Zhou Lanqing to the SOFA.

Throughout the entire process, she did not show any hesitation or panic.

Her serious and focused look also completely entered the man’s eyes.

In fact, most of the time, she did not seem to be an easy person to get along with. It might be due to her noble status, coupled with her outstanding intelligence, she would give people a natural sense of distance.

In addition, her reputation as a wolf floating outside would make people who first came into contact with her, or even those who did not know her well, think that her methods were first-rate and scheming.

She was not suitable to be friends or lovers.

But those who knew her well knew that those were just illusions she gave people.

Or rather, her noble identity and the reputation she borrowed from the wolf gave people illusions.

The real her was just a little girl who was arrogant, pretentious, and carefree.

She liked to talk, cry when she was sad, had her own little inferiority complex, and of course, she also had her incomparable pride.

And kindness.

In his view, she had never seen the darkness, because people who had seen the darkness would not have such clear and transparent eyes and spotless breath.

She was only like a child when she cared too much about someone or something, worrying about gains and losses and not having confidence.

Most of the time, she was especially carefree.

Especially to those who she did not care about, she would not even look them in the eye.

And because of this, in the eyes of most people, she became a pretentious and arrogant representative.

But that was actually her personality. She did not pretend or not pretend at all.

Moreover, she did not seem to care about pretending.

It was this kind of girl who was full of contradictions and had a reputation as a wolf. At this moment, she was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world. She had the tenacity and persistence of an ordinary person, and she also carried a burning kindness.

Even though that person had never liked her grandmother very much, she still spared no effort.

Those who did not understand her might say that this girl was really too good at acting.

However, those who understood her would say that she was really very kind. She was sincere and kind that was rarely seen in the adult world.

“Grandma, can you hear me? ”

Qiao Man Knelt beside the Sofa and asked in her usual delicate and gentle tone, “how many are these? ”

She stretched out three fingers to confirm Zhou Lanqing’s spiritual sense and state.

Zhou Lanqing said extremely slowly and weakly, “three. ”

Qiao man let out a long sigh of relief. The corners of her lips curled into a happy smile, but it was very faint “It’s alright. The temperature has dropped recently and the weather is relatively cold. It’s the season when asthma is high. You must maintain a good mood and avoid breathing too long in an especially dry environment. ”

After saying that, she picked up the blanket on the SOFA and covered her with it. “sleep for a while. You won’t feel uncomfortable when you wake up. ”

Zhou Lanqing nodded weakly. From the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of the tall man behind the girl.

The gaze that landed on the girl’s back was filled with a myriad of emotions. However, she could clearly feel the deep affection that was wrapped around her like an ocean.

Were there some things that were destined to be unavoidable.

Whether it was her son or grandson… … It didn’t matter …

…

Qiao man was wearing a nude pink sweater with a Beige windbreaker over it. She was wearing dark blue slim-fit pencil pants and a pair of seven-centimeter black high heels on her feet.

When she stood up and walked over, her short hair fluttered slightly with her steps.

She was really a girl who rarely had long hair and short hair. She gave people a fairy-like feeling.

“Grandma, there’s nothing else. I’m going to see Yan ‘er. ”

There was a hint of worry in her clear, spring-like eyes, but her emotions were very faint, so faint that it was almost imperceptible.

The moment they brushed past each other, the man reached out and grabbed her arm. “I’ll get Xiao Chen to send you back. At a time like this, whether you go or not won’t be of any better comfort to her. Do you understand? ”

She understood. How could she not understand.

The damage had already seeped deep into her bones. Even she was unable to sew up the wound.

Also, Ou Qiao and Lin Minghan’s resentment towards her had probably reached boiling point because of this matter.

If she went, she would only attract even greater disgust from them, putting Yan ‘er in a difficult position.

“I understand. ”

As she said that, she was about to break free from his hand, but the man gently pulled her into his arms. “I’ll be back very soon. Wait for me. ”

Qiao Man’s porcelain-white face was dyed with a faint blush. She did not say anything and pushed him away as she walked out of the villa.

Just as she walked out, the driver, Xiao Chen, opened the car door at the back and waited respectfully for her to get in before he got out of the car and left.

She had not been sleeping well recently. After Waking Up, she often felt that she was not in good spirits. Sometimes, she would even have a headache. She had just experienced a cold wind, and now her headache was even worse.

She leaned against the car door and leaned her head against the window glass.

Outside was a sky full of snow and wind. There was white everywhere, almost covering the entire world. Only the neon lights that leaked out from the gaps of the dried branches cut the tall buildings into large patches of colorful shadows that flashed past the window glass In her eyes, it was all loneliness.

After about twenty minutes, the car steadily stopped at the entrance of the residential area Qiao man rented.

After thanking her, Qiao man pushed the door open and got out of the car. The night wind blew, she wrapped her windbreaker tightly and walked step by step towards the entrance of the residential area in the face of the snow and wind.

After entering the apartment, the first thing she did was take a hot shower. It was not until she felt that the cold air had been dispersed that she wrapped herself in a towel and walked out of the bathroom.

The floor heating and air conditioning were all turned on. The moment she went out, she could feel the warmth of the air.

She took a towel and casually wiped her hair. She walked to the window and looked at the traffic and lights outside.

She was not sleepy. Her mind was filled with the images of Yan ‘er shooting at Fu Qingshan.

Not only because of Yan ‘Er’s two violent shootings, but also because of what she said about her mental and mental health problems.

Mental Trauma Level One, personality disorder with violent tendencies.

She had studied psychology for many years and had seen patients with mental and mental health problems.

Most of them had experienced particularly violent, dirty, and even dark events in their childhood or adolescence, so that they still had a deep psychological and spiritual imprint after they reached adulthood.

In psychology, this kind of injury was usually explained as psychological trauma and mental disorders.

The higher the level, the more severe the trauma.

As for violent mental disorders, they were mental disorders that resulted from severe psychological trauma.

The sick person vented their inner anxiety, depression, and injury through violence.

And the symptoms that Yan ‘er displayed were clearly very serious.

She reached out her hand and randomly wiped it with a towel a few times before turning around and flipping through a lot of psychology books. Then, she took her notebook and returned to the bed to look up information about psychological trauma.

Finally, she thought of Xie Zhiqian and called him.

He seemed to be busy, and the surrounding sounds were very noisy. From time to time, there were cries and shouts. “Man man. ”

One could tell that his voice was very tired and hoarse.

Qiao man nodded and then asked in a gentle tone, “level one psychological trauma, have you recovered through psychological counseling? ”

Xie Zhiqian pondered for a few seconds before he slowly said, “It depends on the reason. Everyone is different. Of course, if the patient actively cooperated with the treatment, it’s not impossible. ”

“Do you have any other methods? ”

When Qiao man asked this question, the hand holding the phone was so hard that it turned white.

“Of course, through medication and psychological counseling, the effect will be better, but you should also know that the premise of all this is that the patient is subjective and willing. If she tries to force or resist, the result will be in vain. ”

“okay, I got it. ”

At this moment, someone walked over and spoke to Xie Zhiqian in English. Every word was transmitted from the other end of the radio wave.

The general meaning was that somewhere nearby, a terrorist bomb attack created by the anti-government militants had turned it into a flat ground, causing a large number of casualties.

The civil war did not end, and the casualties did not decrease.

That devastated country was full of blood, sacrifice, and death.

There was a saying that was very good. How could there be so many years of peace? It was just that someone was carrying the burden for you.

“Man man, I still have things to do here. Let’s chat when we’re free. ”

“Okay! ”

She actually still did not quite understand why Xie Zhiqian would give up his billions of dollars in the country and run to a place full of death.

But at this moment, she seemed to understand a little.

Because after obtaining the money, identity, and status that she wanted, when there was nothing worth pursuing in life, the best way was to return to the beginning.

The initial self, the initial heart.

Xie Zhiqian was looking for the self that had once been lost and lost. And in this world, which person was not searching for the future while also looking for the lost self.

In terms of courage, it was rare to see someone as brave as him who had abandoned everything.

At least, she had not seen him before.

After hanging up the phone, her mood took a long time to calm down. Then, she continued to immerse herself in the research of psychological trauma.

…

Ji Yunshen drove to Qiao Man’s rented residential building just after eleven o’clock.

The two-bedroom she rented was on the third floor. The bedroom was scattered with dim orange lights. It seemed that the bedside lamp was switched on.

He got out of the car and was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he leaned against the Gray Bentley and took out a cigarette box from his pocket. He took out a cigarette and lit it up. Then, he started to smoke.

Snowflakes fell on his hair and the dark black windbreaker.

Black and white, the ultimate sense, but also deadly sexy.

After one cigarette, he lit another. He did not throw away the cigarette butt in his hand until the White Frost covered his shoulders. He lifted his feet and walked into the corridor.

The sensor lights in this old apartment were basically not lit.

As he walked in, his figure was almost immediately swallowed by the darkness. Only the faint yellow light from the stairway window illuminated the stairs.

When he reached the door, he raised his hand and knocked on the door. Soon, she ran to open the door and could hear the sound of footsteps.

When she ran to the security door, the sound of her footsteps disappeared. She must be tiptoeing to confirm the person outside through the peephole.

When she saw that it was him, she reached out to open the door.

She was wearing a pink cartoon pajamas. Her hair was casually tied into a bun, and her hair was a little messy. Perhaps it was because he had a chill on him. When she felt the chill, her beautiful brows furrowed slightly.

“How’s grandma? ”

The first thing she asked was grandma.

In fact, sometimes, he really felt that her little brain was not that smart. She had never been angry or complained about people who did not like her, especially his family members.

She knew that her situation was much better than now when she acted coquettishly to him or played pillow talk with him.

But she did not.

If others liked her, she would accept it. If they did not like her, she would also accept it.

She was spontaneous and did not force others, nor did she force herself.

“It’s nothing much. I was already asleep when I came. ”

Qiao man responded with an ‘Oh’ and did not move away from the door. After a while, she said, “Ji Yunshen, I can do it myself. It’s easy to get tired of being together all day. ”

She had endured so many sad things by herself. With him, she only had one more reason to be vulnerable.

But without him, she might be stronger and more independent.

They might be able to start over, or love again, but the shadow was still there, and they had to change.

For example, her pretentious lack of confidence, or the deep-rooted feelings that he had for ten years.

“okay, I’ll stay for a while and then leave. ”

Qiao man pursed her Red Lips and moved aside to make way for the door.

The man walked in, took off his windbreaker and placed it on the Armrest of the SOFA. When he sat down, he saw the girl walking towards the kitchen. As he walked, he asked, “what do you want to drink? Coffee, hot drinks, or tea? ”

“Ice Drinks. ”

He liked to drink ice drinks, regardless of the season.

Qiao man frowned after hearing this. When she looked at him, her clear eyes were filled with disapproval. “It’s such cold weather, do you want to drink ice drinks? Don’t you want your stomach? ”

The man smiled. His elbow rested on the Armrest of the SOFA as he looked at her through the layers of light from the ceiling. He asked meaningfully, “are you worried about me? ”

The girl’s eyes were as beautiful as a painting. When she smiled, it was as if the sun was shining. “I like this thing about you. I don’t think I’ve ever denied it. ”

When the man heard that, the corners of his lips curled up beautifully.

The girl made a cup of hot drink and placed it in front of him. “I still need to look up some information. You can leave after you finish drinking. Remember to close the door for me. ”

After saying that, the girl turned around. Before she could take a step, she was pulled back by the man’s long arms. The next second, she was placed on the man’s strong legs.

“When did you cut your hair? ”

He lifted a strand of hair and sniffed it. He asked very casually, as if he had just discovered that she had cut her hair short.

“Two days ago. ”

The girl answered as she wanted to get off his legs. However, she was tightly controlled by the man and could not move.

“Why did you cut your hair short? ”

“Do you need a reason to cut your hair? ”

The girl’s clean eyes were filled with a faint smile. “You came here tonight to ask me why I cut my hair? ”

“No, I was afraid that you would be sad. ”

“If that’s the case, why are you worrying about my hair? ”

The man twirled the girl’s hair with his fingers and said in an extremely lazy tone, “I’m afraid that you cut your hair short because of me. ”

“It’s not because of you. I just want to change my hairstyle, say goodbye to the past, and start a new life… Hmm. ”

The man’s kiss suddenly landed on her lips, blocking the words that she wanted to say.

His kiss was fierce and heavy, the deeper the kiss got. There were even a few moments where the pain made her tense up.

It was extremely presumptuous, but restrained, as if he wanted to rub her into his body and dote on her, but also wanted to destroy her.

There were many contradictions, and it was extremely complicated.

If he had not personally said that he loved her and wanted to pursue her again, she would even suspect that he might hate her or be punishing her.

Although she did not know why she had such a feeling.

Qiao Man’s small hands grabbed the collar of his shirt. As he kissed deeper, she let out a muffled whimper. Hearing it in the man’s ears, it was more like a aphrodisiac, causing his body to instantly burn up.

After a very long time, until the girl’s pair of small hands continuously beat on his chest, only then did the man end this long and deep kiss.

The girl’s porcelain-white face was filled with redness. In her clear black and white eyes, a charming water color pervaded the air. Due to the lack of oxygen, her entire body was sucking in large mouthfuls of air.

Her lips were red and swollen with extreme seduction. The man’s originally dark eyes were even more lustful.

Perhaps because she had maintained that position for too long, she was too tired. She took advantage of the situation and fell in front of his chest. She was like a lazy and satisfied cat, soft and full of endless seduction.

She seemed to be unaware of it and stuck out her tongue to lick her already red and swollen lips.

The man’s body stiffened slightly. He tried his best to suppress the restlessness in his body and pushed her away.

“Rest early. I’ll come back tomorrow morning. ”

This seemed to be the first time she had seen the man run away in a panic.

Qiao man stood in front of the Mirror in the hall and looked at herself in the mirror. In the end, she stuck out her tongue and licked her red lips. Her eyes were sparkling.

Was It really that seductive?

Next time, she could pretend to be more innocent and make him feel even more uncomfortable.

…

At four in the morning, she received a call from Lin Yan.

It was as if she had not slept the whole night. Her voice was slightly hoarse. “Man Man, do you have time in the morning? Can you accompany me to the hospital? ”

She rejected the idea of her family accompanying her to the hospital. Since she was the one who schemed to get married, she could accept the result of the divorce.

“I’m free. ”

Qiao man almost immediately woke up. She sat up and gripped her phone tightly with her scallion-like hands. Her voice was filled with caution as she asked, “Yan ‘er, have you really thought it through? ”

Agreeing to the divorce was equivalent to admitting to the scandals that had been exposed in front of the media. To a girl, that was a fatal injury.

“Man man, compared to the other women in his heart, the pain seems to be a little better. ”

Lin Yan said it in a very casual manner, but who knew how much pain was behind that casual manner.

After ending the call, Qiao man could no longer fall asleep. Recalling what the man had said before he left last night, she sent him a text message.

“You don’t have to look for me in the morning. I’m going to accompany Yan ‘er to the hospital. ”

She sent it over. She did not expect the man to reply. Moreover, he replied almost instantly, as if he had not slept at all.

“I’ll drive the two of you over and let her go to your place. ”

His words were always concise and straightforward. It was just two ordinary sentences, but she had been reading them for a long time.

After a few minutes, she called Lin Yan. After the call was connected, she tried to be as concise as possible and said, “Yan ‘er, Ji Yunshen said that he will send us to the hospital. Come to my place and wait for him to send us over? ”

“Okay! ”

After cutting off the communication, Qiao man prepared some breakfast. After eating, it was a little past seven.

She cleaned the house and tidied it up. After that, Lin Yan arrived.

She subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall. It was half past eight in the morning.

When Fu Zhanglin left yesterday, he said that he wanted to see the divorce certificate before twelve o’clock.

In other words, there were less than four hours left, but Ji Yunshen had not arrived yet.

Qiao Man’s anxious expression was noticed by Lin Yan. She raised her hand and patted her shoulder, saying in a very light tone, “it doesn’t matter. As long as he signs it, it’s fine. The rest will be handled by someone else. There’s no need for me and him to be present. ”

In other words, as long as Fu Qingshan signs the papers, the divorce certificate could be obtained at any time.

Qiao man nodded. She couldn’t see the expression on her face as she was facing the light.

Ji Yunshen’s car drove into the residential area at nine o’clock. Qiao man and Lin Yan were waiting downstairs because they had called ahead of time.

After parking the car, the two of them got into the car.

The car started up again and slid out.

It was rush hour at this time, so it was a little congested. Fortunately, the sun was bright and beautiful. When it shone through the car window, it would have a warm and beautiful feeling, sweeping away the haze.

The car was very quiet, and no one spoke.

When they reached the hospital, the three of them walked to the inpatient department one after the other.

Just as they approached the ward where Fu Qingshan was, they heard a woman’s voice coming from the open door. “Are you badly injured? Will there be any side effects? ”

It was Ji Han’s voice.

Lin Yan stopped, turned around, and said to Qiao man and Ji Yunshen, “about the divorce, I want to have a private chat with him. ”

“Okay! ”

Qiao man and Ji Yunshen replied almost at the same time.

Lin Yan thanked them and walked towards the half-open door of the ward in her high heels. When she knocked on the door, Ji Han was feeding a fruit to Fu Qingshan’s mouth. Her actions were so intimate and natural that it almost made people envious.

“I’m sorry to disturb you. ”

Lin Yan walked in. Her entire body was white. Under the bright sunlight, it was so bright that it almost made people unable to open their eyes.

Ji Han’s left leg had been shot. Although it was only a cut, whenever she saw Lin Yan, she would remember the look on her face when she fired the gun.

Crazy and violent.

Ji Han put down the fruit in her hand, slid the wheelchair and walked out. “I’ll go back to the ward first. You guys talk first. ”

When she passed by Lin Yan, she paused for a moment before continuing to push the wheelchair out.

After Ji Han left, there was only dead silence in the ward. A few seconds later, Lin Yan took out a stack of documents from her bag and placed it beside Fu Qingshan’s bed. “This is the divorce agreement. I’m leaving with nothing. ”

There were no children, and there was no division of property involved. It could be considered the simplest divorce for a wealthy family.

Fu Qingshan’s arms were wrapped in white bandages, and his face was almost devoid of blood.
