If We Cannot Grow Old Together

Proofread by Zhou Zhijie

Of course, three kowtows from Xia is far from enough to compensate her mother’s death. Mu Ziyou just wants to embarrass Xia and deliberately makes things difficult for Li because formerly Li Qiaosheng would think that she was making trouble out of nothing and would never let Xia Wanyan do as she required.

So she makes such a suggestion.

Unexpectedly, Li Qiaosheng accepts it without hesitation and adds, “Okay, I promise you, she would not only kowtow to you and apologize, but also go and kneel in front of your mother’s grave for three days and nights!”

“You－”

Mu Ziyou looks in amazement at the man in front of her uttering these sincere words. She still cannot believe that such words really come from his mouth.

He must be deceiving her. He must be comforting her with these nice words.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

He must fear that she would rush out with the knife and hurt his bride so that the wedding would then be ruined. Yes, that must be the case!

“So many years’ youth sacrificed for you won me a ‘thank you for giving me the chance’. The chance for your freedom and adventure, for my blue sea and sky. She promises you a solemn pledge of love with sweet words. I have only one plain offer of chance without regret. Giving chance for your today and tomorrow, and for my next summer…”

Just then, Mu Ziyou’s mobile phone rings. She quickly picks it up and takes a look at it－ it is Qin Yang.

Li Qiaosheng catches the caller’s name as well. With this ringtone, he feels so terrible inside that it seems that thousands of needles are pricking at his heart. His heart hurts so much that it is difficult to describe it.

“I’m still in the hotel. Okay, I’m fine. Well, wait for me downstairs. I’m coming right now.”

Mu Ziyou doesn’t bother to shun Li Qiaosheng. Ending the call in his presence, she finds he is still standing in her way. Impatiently, she pushed him aside. “Mr. Li, I wish you a happy wedding. I will send you the divorce agreement by express delivery. You can send it back after you finish signing.”

“Youyou, I’m not kidding you. Since you’re still alive, you’re still my wife. And you will be my wife for this lifetime! Wait for me, Please.”

After saying that, with no other useless words, Li Qiaosheng goes back to attend the wedding ceremony for it is already the the due time for the ceremony.

He will absolutely make Xia Wanyan pay little by little for the pain and grievance Youyou has suffered before!

This is the main reason why he insisted on the wedding ceremony with Xia Wanyan.

But Mu Ziyou doesn’t know about the man’s good intentions, nor does she take all his words seriously. She is here today for only two purposes: one is to make sure that Xia Wanyan had done something to her mother’s death; the other is to divorce Li Qiaosheng.

Mu Ziyou’s hatred for Li Qiaosheng is different from that for Xia Wanyan.

When she finally calms down, she finds that she only wants to take revenge on Xia Wanyan. As for Li Qiaosheng, she just wants to give him the words: you’re free.

Back in the car, Qin Yang turns around and sees Mu Ziyou’s red-brimmed eyes. He cannot help sighing, “You’ve really thought it over this time and made up your mind to divorce him?”

“Yes!”

“Actually, I think that if you want to take revenge on Xia Wanyan, the best way is not to divorce for the time being. Ruining their marriage is the strongest blow to her.” Suddenly something occurs to Qin Yang. He pauses for a moment and then waves his hand, “Oh, forget it. You still have some remaining affection for that fellow. I’m afraid you would probably make it real! Just forget it…”

Mu Ziyou doesn’t say anything, but she does take what Qin Yang says seriously.

That’s right. It isn’t worthwhile at all to kill Xia Wanyan for just venting her anger, yet at the cost of herself! Not a good deal indeed!

However, Xia Wanyan would not end in jail, either, if Li Qiaosheng continued pulling strings from behind even though Mu Ziyou submitted the evidence to the police.

Considering this, the best approach to make Xia Wanyan pay for her deeds is to constantly show up in front of them reminding Xia Wanyan that she is not dead, and her marriage with Li Qiaosheng is still in effect, whereas Xia Wanyan herself is actually the hateful third party!

This must be the most terrible torment for Xia Wanyan both physically and mentally!
