In the midst of his slightly dazed state of mind, Su Qiu had already gently brushed his hand away and opened the door and entered the room.
His hand was still in the position where he had let go of her hand, motionless, petrified like a statue outside the door. If not for the pained expression on his face that was so shocking, he really did look like a "love stone".
After he finished smoking, he calmed down and slowly walked upstairs. What he saw was Qi Shaofei leaning against the wall next to Su Qiu's door with his head lowered, doing something unknown.
Shen Ling, who was already depressed to begin with, could not be bothered to endure anymore and walked forward with a gloomy face.
"What are you doing here?" His voice was so cold that it made one want to shiver.
Hearing that, Qi Shaofei raised his head, upon seeing the person, his eyes immediately filled with rage: "You're the one who made Su Qiu cry?"
Did she cry? Shen Ling was shocked, and immediately revealed an expression on his face. He could not hide his worry at all.
However, despite her worry, she felt a tinge of jealousy. She hadn't cried in front of him just now, so why was she crying when she was seen by this man?
He did not care about the furious Qi Shaofei, who was about to knock on Su Qiu's door. He only wanted to comfort her.
Seeing this man, who made Su Qiu cry, ignore his own questions and still want to barge in to disturb her, Qi Shaofei immediately exploded. His normally warm face revealed a trace of determination.
He reached out his hand to quickly buckle Shen Ling's shoulder and used all his strength to pull him backwards. He did not care how heavy Shen Ling would be if he pulled with all his might.
As expected, Shen Ling, who was anxious to see his wife, was not prepared in the slightest. He was pulled back fiercely and crashed into the door of Qi Shaofei's room, causing a loud "dong" sound to echo throughout the corridor.
The man was hit until he saw stars. His internal organs shook and his stomach churned. He almost vomited.
He held onto his chest and endured the nausea that kept rising from his stomach, standing straight, he calmed himself down and raised his head, a dark gaze shot out like a knife towards Qi Shaofei who was pushing him, not bad, this time he was probably using all his strength, did he want to send him to the underworld palace?
He didn't want to get entangled with him at the moment, so after adjusting himself for a bit, he tidied up his clothes and headed towards Su Qiu's door.
"Go away, I forbid you to go in and hurt her." Seeing that he did not have any intention to retreat, Qi Shaofei stepped in front of Su Qiu's door, firmly blocking the door and preventing him from entering, and roared fiercely.
He was like a lion defending its territory, his hair standing on end as he glared at the assailant, waiting for the latter to make a move before he would suddenly jump up and snap his neck.
"Good dogs don't block the way." Shen Ling shot him a glance, then said slowly as his deep eyes glanced at him.
He wasn't stupid. With a single glance, he could tell that this person was prepared to break down. There was no need to go head to head with him.
"Hmph, all you can do is make me angry with you for your words." Qi Shaofei was not affected by the provocation and mocked.
"She is my wife and I am her husband."
Shen Ling crossed his hands in front of his chest, and unhurriedly said those words, showing off the image of the leader of the consortium who was leading the way at the negotiating table.
"So what!" Qi Shaofei hated him the most for always wanting to control someone so high and mighty.
"The meaning is," Shen Ling paused for a moment, as his sharp gaze seemed to pierce deeply into his heart, "We are a legal couple, but you, are just an unrelated outsider."
As he said those words, the damage was huge, and indeed, Qi Shaofei's face clearly went blank for a moment. After being at a loss for a moment, a painful wound flashed past, and Qi Shaofei actually forgot to react.
Yes, she was married, the wife of someone else.
This was the most regretful and regretful thing in his heart. Every time he recalled it, it would make him extremely uncomfortable. He regretted accepting his father's arrangement three years ago, leaving this place and his beloved her.
Unexpectedly, after three years, everything changed. She became an orphan, but she also became someone else.
How many times had he tried to grab hold of her hand in his dreams, yet he could not do so. Seeing her sweetly smile and throw herself into Shen Ling's embrace, with the two of them nestling against each other and looking at him with a blissful smile, his heart ached so much that he had to wake up with sweat covering his head. The place where his heart was in such an uncomfortable position, yet he had no choice but to accept the naked reality.
If he could turn back time, he would not stop his father's plans. If he did his best to stay by her side and comfort her while she was helpless and weak, the result would be different.
Qi Shaofei had already fallen into a state of deep remorse and was unable to extricate himself.
Seeing the other party's expression, Shen Ling's face revealed a look of despise. You tried to steal my woman, but you've already lost at the starting line three years ago, don't you know?
He stepped on his long legs and walked towards him like an unstoppable king. Standing in front of him, he calmly looked at him and slowly said, "So, get out of the way."
Saying that, she pushed him away without waiting for his response.
Qi Shaofei was still immersed in pain, and did not retaliate. He lowered his head and leaned on the wall.
"Knock knock knock." Shen Ling knocked lightly, but there was no sound coming from inside the door.
A sense of unease welled up in his heart, causing him to frown. He knocked on the door even more frequently, but there was still no response.
Qi Shaofei also noticed the abnormality and looked at the door nervously.
Could something have happened?
This thought suddenly flashed across his mind, Shen Ling's face revealed shock, he frantically took out the key from his pocket, and anxiously took it out. He did not even insert it into the keyhole a few times.
He actually had Su Qiu's house key? Qi Shaofei was startled, but soon after, a hint of sadness flashed past his face, and his eyes became deeper as well.
