Chapter 1444: Great to Have You (4)
Mu Qixing left without answering him. Luo Hang and Xia Banqin stood by the window to observe the situation, only to discover that Mu Qixing did not tell on them. More than half an hour later, Luo Hang felt a huge sense of relief because his mother had yet to knock on his door. He immediately locked the door and held Xia Banqin tightly in his embrace. “I haven’t seen you in days. I missed you so much.”
“Do you know how much effort it took for me to sneak in?”
“I know, I know. It’s been hard on you.”
He then pinned her onto the bed and began kissing her passionately.
On the other hand, Mu Qixing was filled with displeasure.
I’m the lawful wife and yet I have to let them have the room to themselves.
Forget it, I’d be less annoyed if I don’t see them.
Hence, she stayed out for the entire day and only returned in the evening. Yet, she still had to face Xia Banqin.
Mrs. Luo had brewed some tonic soup especially for Luo Hang, which she told Mu Qixing to bring upstairs for him.
She headed upstairs to see that Luo Hang and Xia Banqin were playing with some video games on the bed.
“Mother wanted me to bring this to you.”
“Leave it here.” Mu Qixing placed the bowl of soup on the headboard before sitting down on the couch, staring blankly at the bed.
The couple fed each other and finished the entire bowl of soup together.
Mu Qixing was speechless.
She lay down on the couch, too lazy to vie with them for the couch.
To her surprise, the two of them began kissing each other affectionately, completely disregarding her presence. They even began undressing themselves, as if she was not there at all.
Unable to tolerate the atrocity any further, she questioned, “Do you take me for dead?”
However, they did not answer her at all. Mu Qixing flew into a rage. How dare they do this on my bed and right in front of me? Mu Qixing found it to be an insult to her.
Without hesitation, she zoomed toward the bathroom and filled a bucket with cold water. Just as she was about to splash it onto them, she discovered that they had already begun intercourse.
Thinking to herself that it was pointless to splash the water onto them since it was summertime anyway, Mu Qixing suppressed her anger and lay down on the couch again. She then continued to watch them and filmed the entire process with her mobile phone, as if she was just a spectator.
There were no sounds in the room at all apart from those of the bed shaking.
At last, she could not tolerate it any further. She absolutely despised Luo Hang.
Hence, she left the room again.
I don’t even have a place to sleep anymore, do I?
Upon the sight of her, Mrs. Luo asked in surprise, “He didn’t drink the soup?”
“He’s already drunk it.”
“Why are you going out, then? He’ll be feeling hot and randy later. I added a little something to the soup.”
Mu Qixing sighed, feeling sympathetic toward Mrs. Luo for all her painstaking efforts. “Mother, go upstairs to take a look. There’s no space for me to even sleep in anymore.”
“What happened?”
“You’ll know once you take a look for yourself. I’m going back to sleep in my maiden home tonight.”
Mu Qixing left the house twice in a single day.
She was helpless and had no other option.
She would be fine with Luo Hang going out and fooling around while she remained at home. However, she could not help but feel repulsed and disgusted now that she was even denied her right to sleep in the room.
Although she claimed to be going back to her maiden home, she actually went out for a karaoke session instead.
She booked a private room for herself and bought lots of snacks and beer. She decided to indulge in them, so as to vent her frustration.
After switching off her mobile phone, she sat on the couch and began singing at the top of her voice while hugging her knees, feeling incredibly relaxed.
After downing a few cans of beer, the door of the room was opened. Mu Qixing looked at the door, only to be greeted with a shocking sight. She instantly sobered up and was no longer tipsy.
She stared at the man and watched him approach her quickly.
“Long time no see,” said Mu Qixing, gazing at him.
As soon as she finished speaking, he pinned her onto the couch and began kissing her ravenously while she remained still. When he finally stopped, she asked calmly, “Are you done?”
Lu Jingrao stood up slowly and glowered at her. “Do you know how much time I’ve spent trying to look for you? Where did you go?”
“I went to get married.”
Not believing her words at all, he said, “Qixing, I don’t believe that you’d marry someone else.”
“If you can get married, why can’t I? Am I your personal belonging?”
“I got married? Who did I marry?”
Mu Qixing scoffed and sneered, “How can you not know who you married? Fancy you having the cheek to ask me instead.”
“I didn’t marry anyone.”
Dumbstruck, she asked, “You… didn’t? You didn’t get married?”
“You went missing. Who was I supposed to marry?” Lu Jingrao said angrily. He wouldn’t have heard her singing and ended up finding her if he didn’t happen to be at the karaoke joint with his colleagues.
After she left without a word back then, he took a long break from work to search for her and even ended up being depressed for a period of time. He only recovered gradually after some time. Even ’til now, he still had no idea why she went missing all of a sudden.
“I heard from your mother that your matchmaking session turned out to be successful and that you were about to get married soon. Not only did you hide your matchmaking session from me, you even decided to marry someone else. Since you’ve made up your mind, I thought it’d be better for me to vanish out of your sight!”
“I was just coaxing my mother and lying to her. When I told her that I was getting married soon, I meant that I would be marrying you soon. I didn’t go on any blind dates at all. Do you have that little trust in me?”
Not wishing to argue with him any further, Mu Qixing exclaimed agitatedly, “Why didn’t you let your parents know of my existence at all? When your mother made you go on blind dates and matchmaking sessions, you could’ve just told her about us… you could’ve told her that you had a girlfriend. However, you never once did. I’ve always felt that I fancied you more than you did me. You don’t care about my feelings at all.”
She pushed him away and stood up. “I’m already married now. Your marital status doesn’t matter to me anymore.”
“You’re married? Are you really married!?!” Lu Jingrao barked in disbelief, gritting his teeth angrily.
“Yes, I’ve been married for more than two months.”
“Are you lying to me?”
“Why would I lie to you? There’s no need for that.” Mu Qixing took a deep breath and continued, “Lu Jingrao, just what do I mean to you? Do you really love me? Or are you just using me to satisfy your needs?”
Mu Qixing felt as if a boulder had been lifted off her chest after she finally poured her heart out.
As soon as she walked past him, he grabbed her wrist forcefully and pulled her into his embrace. “Qixing…”
“Let go of me.”
He tightened his grip, refusing to budge at all.
He had jeopardized her plans to unwind and relax at the karaoke joint all by herself.
“Seems like you still don’t believe me. There’s a dentist in your department whose name is Wu Pingyang, right?”
He let go of her and said, “Yes. How did you know?”
