“Haven’t I behaved myself enough? I’ll really fulfill your wishes. Limo, everything I said just now is true. I won’t pester you anymore…”
“Behave yourself, my foot!” Li Mo didn’t want to hear any of her current topics.
“You’re the one who wants to get married, and you’re the one who wants a divorce. What do you take me for?! Are you playing with me?”
Xu Qingzhi bit her lips and looked at him. She seemed to have calmed down.
“I was wrong, okay?! I shouldn’t have kept the child. I shouldn’t have used the child to marry you. I shouldn’t have gone out so that Grandma and Mom would have a chance to make things difficult for Mo Xiaona. So everything is my fault. I was wrong, okay?!”
“No way!”
“You…”
“Shut up! I don’t want to hear anything from you now!”
Xu Qingzhi couldn’t treat Limo normally. She didn’t want to hear a word from him either.
Other than stabbing a knife into her heart, what else could he say?
“No, no, no. Let’s get a divorce. After that, you won’t be able to hear me anymore…”
The veins on Li Mo’s forehead throbbed. “Say that again!”
“Let’s leave…”
Yes, it was all her fault.
She was the one who insisted on marrying him back then. He had said that he didn’t want children and he wouldn’t want her. He said that they were destined not to have any interactions in this lifetime.
She didn’t know how she had offended him. They were classmates and even had a good relationship back then. When they met again, he actually said such cruel words to her.
But in the end, she chose to marry him.
Hence, after her marriage, she had to guard this empty house alone. She had to bear all the sarcasm and sarcasm.
She had no right to complain to others about how aggrieved she was. She didn’t even have the right to be sad.
For the past two days, Limo had been staying at home, sleeping and eating with her. He had even accompanied her for her prenatal checkup and swimming. To her, this was a long-awaited salvation.
She didn’t have time to think about how much embarrassment and pain this man had caused her. She only wanted to grasp the present and the rare happiness.
However, happiness was too difficult.
She hadn’t even gotten what she wanted, so how could she be confident?
Li Mo had thousands of ways to stab her heart until it bled.
Since she had tried and she couldn’t get the love she wanted, why did she insist?
She suddenly pushed Li Mo away forcefully.
Limo finally let go of her and stared at her coldly.
His gaze was fixed on her skin inch by inch.
“Xu Qingzhi, you used your child to marry me because you love me.”
Hearing this, Xu Qingzhi’s eyes flashed. She wasn’t surprised by Li Mo’s words.
This was the truth. She had never hidden how much she loved him.
Was this a secret? It had never been. Why did he have to emphasize it now?
“So?”
Xu Qingzhi’s calmness made Li Mo at a loss.
Why was she so cold and indifferent when he exposed her so bluntly?
“So what right do you have to divorce me now?! You love me, but you want to divorce me. What’s the difference between that and playing hard to get?!”
His angry words stunned Xu Qingzhi for a moment.
“Limo.” She was silent for a long time. “When did you know that I love you?”
When Xu Qingzhi said “I love you”, Li Mo’s dark eyes couldn’t help but move. When these words landed in his heart, it was deafening and trembling.
‘When did he find out?’
“I… Of course I knew!” How could he admit that Chu Yi had just told him?
Xu Qingzhi gave a cold laugh. Li Mo looked at the sorrow on her face.
She felt a little flustered.
“You already knew that I loved you. That’s why you asked me to abort the child and not marry you. We would never have met again…”
Li Mo’s expression changed.
“So on the night of the wedding, you can leave me alone in the wedding room and take a plane to another country to find Mo Xiaona…”
“So you can ignore me for more than two months after your marriage and use it to punish the marriage that I obtained through unscrupulous means…”
“That’s why you can treat me coldly and mercilessly for Mo Xiaona…”
Tears welled up in Xu Qingzhi’s eyes.
“You clearly know that I love you, so you can hurt me so brazenly?”
“Do you know that even a look from you is heaven and hell to me, a mountain of knives and a sea of fire? Do you think my heart is so cold and indestructible that I can let you hurt me so wantonly?”
After being wronged for so long, she could no longer hold it in. With a trembling voice, tears rolled down her face and seeped into the blanket.
Li Mo grabbed her hand and shrugged slightly. He stared at the tears that were still flowing down the corners of her eyes. His thin lips parted and closed, but no sound came out.
Xu Qingzhi closed her eyes tightly. On her delicate and fair neck, her beautiful collarbones were folded and expanded. She swallowed the bitterness that surged up again and again.
“I quit, Limo…”
She opened her eyes and tears streamed down her face again. Her voice and expression were filled with grievance and sadness.
“I don’t want to love you anymore. I don’t want to continue loving you. No matter how strong I am, my heart can’t withstand your unrestrained torture! I married you because I want to live well with you. No matter how much I have to sacrifice, I have no complaints. I’m working hard. I’m waiting for you to love me… I’m not letting you trample on me like this…”
She propped herself up and slowly sat up on the bed. She reached out to wipe the tears on her face.
“I was wrong. I give up. I don’t want anything else… Let’s get a divorce. Let’s get a divorce now…”
She was like a helpless child who didn’t know anything. All she could think of was finding candy to eat.
However, there was only one thought in her mind, and that was divorce.
She wasn’t a masochist.
She really wasn’t…
Her appearance made the panic and helplessness in Li Mo’s heart intensify.
He grabbed her again. “Xu Qingzhi!”
“Let go of me!!”
Xu Qingzhi suddenly shook her off and pushed him away. She stood up and stared at him coldly and angrily.
“Do you think that our sudden divorce will affect the Li family? But Limo, think carefully. This isn’t my fault. You’re the one who’s going overboard!
I don’t want anything. The Li family’s influence and losses have nothing to do with me. If you don’t want to embarrass the Li family, divorce me as soon as possible!
You can love whoever you want and be with whoever you want. From now on, I don’t care and I won’t accompany you anymore! Limo doesn’t bully people like you!
After she finished screaming, she looked at Li Mo’s shocked face. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly turned around and walked out of the door quickly.
Before Li Mo could recover from his shock, his body had already rushed out.
Xu Qingzhi held her stomach with one hand and walked very quickly. Limo caught up with her at the staircase.
He reached out to stop her. “Xu Qingzhi, calm down!”
He had never seen her so agitated.
“Don’t touch me! Let go of me!!”
She screamed angrily and grabbed the railing tightly, trying to shake Li Mo off.
Qiao Zhilan and the old lady heard the commotion and walked over. When they saw the two of them arguing at the staircase, their faces turned pale!
“Limo, what are you doing?!” Qiao Zhilan exclaimed in horror.
Li Mo frowned and glanced downstairs before looking at Xu Qingzhi.
“You’re determined to divorce me?”
Xu Qingzhi replied without hesitation, “Yes!”
“I don’t agree!” Li Mo shouted.
Xu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment before she retracted her hand.
Li Mo didn’t notice, but when he did, he saw Xu Qingzhi’s pale face as she leaned back.
“Qingzhi!”
“Lass!”
His expression turned cold and he immediately reached out to grab Xu Qingzhi’s waist. He pulled her back forcefully and changed directions with her. In this position, even if an accident happened, he would be the one to cushion her.
The situation was too dangerous. Xu Qingzhi subconsciously protected herself and gripped the armrest tightly.
Li Mo steadied himself and looked down at the woman in his arms. Her face was pale and she was still in shock.
“Are you okay?”
Xu Qingzhi looked up at him in a daze. Her expression turned cold and she pushed him with her free hand.
The man, who had used all his strength to not move at all in the past, fell backward because of her casual push!
Then, there was a series of knocking sounds.
“Limo!”
Qiao Zhilan screamed, and Xu Qingzhi’s dazed eyes suddenly moved.
The man who was hugging her just now had already rolled to the first floor. He still fumbled to sit up, but blood slowly seeped out of his head. Not long after, his entire face was blurry.
Her body swayed violently. She hurriedly straightened her body and ran down, her legs trembling.
In the end, she knelt in front of Li Mo and held his head. She raised her hand to wipe the blood off his forehead.
“Limo, Limo… are you alright… I’m sorry… I… I didn’t do it on purpose…”
Li Mo’s eyes were covered in blood. After Xu Qingzhi wiped his eyes, he could vaguely see her face.
Her face was full of tears, self-blame, panic, and heartache.
Li Mo reached out stubbornly and grabbed her hand. “Xu Qingzhi… Although I’m fine, it’s all because of you… You have to… take full responsibility…”
Xu Qingzhi bit her lips and did not speak. She stood up and called the emergency number.
After hanging up, she turned around to see Qiao Zhilan helping Limo up. However, Li Mo pushed her away and turned to look at her. His gaze seemed to be fixated on her, as though it had never left her.
She paused, but Li Mo reached out to her. “My whole body hurts now. Come and help me.”
Qiao Zhilan was speechless.
The old lady was speechless.
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
Did he think they were blind?
Mom wanted to help him up just now, but he pushed her away.
“Hurry up, Xu Qingzhi! My head is spinning!”
Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips but still walked over.
“Mom wanted to help you just now.”
Seeing that Li Mo was still acting shamelessly, Xu Qingzhi calmed down. As she supported him, she exposed him.
“Mom is old after all. How would she have the strength to help me up?”
Qiao Zhilan’s expression was already ugly, and after hearing Li Mo’s words, it became even uglier.
Old age…
Ha.
Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything, but she helped him to the sofa. She didn’t feel that she had used much strength.
She even felt that he could walk without anyone’s help.
But that thought was fleeting.
After all, the blood on his face was real.
—
When the doctor saw Li Mo again, he was stunned for a moment before saying, “We meet again.”
She had just left the hospital in the morning, and in less than half a day, they had met again.
His words made Xu Qingzhi feel awkward.
Li Mo glanced at him and asked coldly, “Aren’t you from the gastroenterology department?”
The doctor smiled and said, “The surgeon has something on today. I’ll keep an eye on him.”
Li Mo was speechless.
After a series of examinations, Li Mo was sent to a high-class ward.
“There are many bruises on your body. You have… moderate concussion and acute gastritis. Take good care of yourself.”
Under Li Mo’s glare, the doctor tactfully exaggerated the situation before walking out of the ward.
Qiao Zhilan confirmed that Limo was fine, but she couldn’t hide the heartache on her face.
The old lady snorted and said, “You deserve it.”
The heartache on Qiao Zhilan’s face gradually faded as she pursed her lips. She was extremely dissatisfied with Limo’s actions today.
“If there’s nothing else, go back,” said Limo in a low voice.
Qiao Zhilan looked up at Xu Qingzhi and said awkwardly, “Qingzhi, look…”
Xu Qingzhi smiled faintly and said, “It’s alright, I can do it myself. Go back and rest.”
Qiao Zhilan relaxed slightly. She glanced at the old lady and the two of them left the ward.
Xu Qingzhi sent the two of them off and returned to the ward. She glanced at the drip before walking to the sofa and sitting down.
Silence filled the room.
Li Mo frowned and turned his head to look at Xu Qingzhi. He saw her leaning against the sofa, looking at her phone.
Sensing that he was looking at her, Xu Qingzhi suddenly looked up.
Li Mo hurriedly turned his head and pretended not to look at her.
