Helping My Ex-Wife Find Love Every Day - Chapter 36
Sensing Qin Chun’s probing gaze, Yao Xiangyi turned her head, shooting icy glares at Qin Chun.
Qin Chun immediately shrank back, her shoulder line stiffening into a perfectly straight horizontal level, focusing intently on driving.
Yao Xiangyi burrowed back into Qiu Qingshi’s embrace.
Qiu Qingshi felt a pang of sympathy and raised her hand to pinch the back of Yao Xiangyi’s head. After two or three rubs, she withdrew her hand.
Yao Xiangyi said sullenly, “Let’s agree now. Even after the divorce, you are still my wife. No remarrying.”
Her face was buried in Qiu Qingshi’s chest, and the heat from her breath pierced through the fabric, making Qiu Qingshi’s skin feel hot in waves.
If there were no one else, Qiu Qingshi wouldn’t have minded. They were a couple and should be intimate; they had “rocked the car” countless times.
But Qin Chun was present, and Yao Xiangyi was deliberately trying to take advantage of her!
She cupped Yao Xiangyi’s head and moved it to her shoulder.
Yao Xiangyi twisted her neck and nestled back in.
Qiu Qingshi spoke sharply: “Get up.”
“You have to agree first.”
Qiu Qingshi pinched her ear, acting slightly triumphant: “After the divorce, I won’t be part of the Yao family anymore. Who I like is none of your business, and who I marry is none of your business either.”
“You would never bear to leave me!” Yao Xiangyi hugged Qiu Qingshi even tighter.
Qiu Qingshi spoke insincerely: “I would bear it.”
Then she added, “Since you can bear to leave me, why should I miss you so much?”
Yao Xiangyi kissed her earlobe: “Be angry if you must, but you can’t act on it. If you’re still not pacified, you can beat me, I promise I won’t resist.”
A flash of amusement crossed Qiu Qingshi’s eyes: “Me beat you? How heartbroken the next Mrs. Yao would be.”
Yao Xiangyi had a splitting headache.
She could understand Qiu Qingshi’s feelings; being divorced for no good reason would naturally leave her with a knot of resentment, and saying a few sharp things was only right.
She said patiently, “Sweetheart, you are the eternal Mrs. Yao.”
This earned her a contemptuous sniff from Qiu Qingshi.
Yao Xiangyi brought her thumb and forefinger together to make a small heart: “Sweetheart, I’ll love you for ten thousand years.”
Qin Chun in the front: “…………”
She truly couldn’t figure out where the domineering aura Yao Xiangyi had when she first asked her to draft the divorce agreement had gone.
The divorce rate in Hua Guo (China) had been growing for seven consecutive years. By the time they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, the place was already packed.
Half the people were there to get married, and half were there to divorce.
Qiu Qingshi’s vulnerability as a public figure became apparent. If she really had to go inside and queue up for a divorce, the news would instantly air on major media platforms.
Yao Xiangyi suggested, “How about we come back this afternoon?”
Qiu Qingshi patted her back, encouraging her: “Boss Yao, don’t be a coward.”
Qin Chun volunteered: “Boss Yao, Madam, it will take a long time with so many people queuing. I’ll go in first and get a number for you. I’ll call you in when it’s almost your turn.”
Qiu Qingshi gave her suggestion a thumbs-up.
Rarely praised by her idol, Qin Chun was flattered. She scratched her head and said sheepishly, “It’s what I should be doing.”
Helping your idol get divorced is what you should be doing?
Yao Xiangyi mentally snickered.
She urged Qin Chun to hurry up.
Qin Chun pushed up her black-rimmed glasses, turned around, and respectfully addressed Qiu Qingshi: “Madam, I’m going now.”
Only after receiving Qiu Qingshi’s permission did she unbuckle her seatbelt and get out of the car.
She did not look at Yao Xiangyi once from start to finish.
Yao Xiangyi looked at her with an expression that said, “I am your boss, who gave you the nerve to ignore me?”
Qin Chun felt her silent condemnation, turned back, her face reading, “You little submissive, what do you have to be arrogant about?”
Yao Xiangyi decided to dock her pay.
Qin Chun’s departing back was unprecedentedly firm.
Once her figure completely disappeared into the outdoor parking lot, Yao Xiangyi stopped restraining herself and began to put her hands on Qiu Qingshi.
Qiu Qingshi resisted stubbornly.
As the atmosphere intensified, Yao Xiangyi forced herself upon her: “Relax, five minutes is all it takes.”
Qiu Qingshi glared at her: “How can it be that fast!” Trying to fool a child.
Yao Xiangyi pinned her hands above her head: “You won’t know unless you try.”
“I won’t try, thank you.”
“I just want to be intimate with you. We’re about to divorce, and I feel uneasy, afraid you’ll really abandon me afterward.”
“Be confident, and remove the ‘afraid.'”
Yao Xiangyi smacked her lips and bargained: “Then, will you stay with me tonight after the divorce?”
What kind of trash talk is this!
It was outrageous.
If Qiu Qingshi weren’t constrained by her reputation as the city’s number one socialite, she would have certainly beaten Yao Xiangyi until she cried today.
She puffed out her cheeks and said angrily, “You want to sleep with me for free after the divorce? You’re dreaming!”
Yao Xiangyi had money to burn, and her desires had been repressed for over half a month. Her eyes glowed green, and she spoke shamelessly: “Name your price.”
Qiu Qingshi instantly conceived a mischievous plan.
Her eyes rolled. She wrapped her arms around Yao Xiangyi’s neck, pulled her down, and whispered against her ear, exhaling like an orchid: “Since Boss Yao is so straightforward, you absolutely must wait for me at the hotel tonight.”
The sudden change in attitude definitely signaled foul play, but Yao Xiangyi pretended not to notice. She fished a room key card from her pocket with two fingers: “Be there or be square.”
Qiu Qingshi took the card and asked with alluring eyes: “Boss Yao, aren’t you afraid I have a scheme?”
“I would rather die beneath a peony flower than live without romance.”
With the evening arrangement made, Yao Xiangyi only asked Qiu Qingshi for a kiss.
Qiu Qingshi was not stingy and gave Yao Xiangyi a taste of sweetness, after all, an appetizer is the best way to whet the appetite.
Qin Chun saw that it was almost time and called them. After three unanswered calls, she rushed to the parking lot. When she opened the car door, she saw the two of them kissing passionately.
Qin Chun immediately turned her back: “Oh my, oh my, oh my, another live broadcast!”
Qiu Qingshi hurriedly pushed Yao Xiangyi away, panting, her face flushed.
She pretended to be calm and asked Qin Chun: “Is it our turn?”
Qin Chun affirmed with two “ums.”
Her ears were perked up, not wanting to miss any of the exciting drama.
Then she heard Yao Xiangyi say impatiently, “Wait a little longer!”
Then she slammed the door shut with a bang.
Immediately afterward, Qiu Qingshi’s voice came from inside the car…
“No…”
“Daddy… you’re so naughty…”
Qin Chun’s pupils widened little by little: “Aaaahhhhhhh, kswl (I ship it so hard)! I am the happiest fan head in the world!!!”
Not long after, Qiu Qingshi leaned on the car door as she got out. Her legs were shaky, and she felt slightly weak.
She hated Yao Xiangyi to death. Where on earth did this scoundrel learn her tricks? She was left feeling a fire rising inside her, stuck in an unbearable state of arousal.
She had almost failed to hold the final line of defense.
Yao Xiangyi’s eyes were smiling, admiring the glistening moisture on Qiu Qingshi’s lips like a proud artist admiring her masterpiece.
This earned Qiu Qingshi’s complaint: “It’s all your fault.”
Qin Chun, whose brain had somewhat recovered from the excitement, thought: What the hell are you two divorcing for!
The current divorce services are very thoughtful. Before receiving the green book, they were required to visit the Marriage and Family Counseling Room.
In short, it was divorce mediation.
The person in charge of this work was a man with a buzz cut.
He wore an ill-fitting white shirt, buttoned all the way to the top, and drank tea loudly from a thermos cup, sip after sip.
From head to toe, he exuded two words: Confidence.
He looked highly experienced, having saved hundreds of couples and families from the brink of broken marriages.
Perhaps due to his many years of dedication to his work, he was slightly disconnected from society, as he did not recognize Qiu Qingshi.
Yao Xiangyi was surprised.
Qiu Qingshi’s national fame in the entertainment industry was unparalleled. As long as a household had a television and people carried a mobile phone, it was impossible not to know Qiu Qingshi’s name.
But this man with the buzz cut genuinely did not recognize her.
He calmly screwed the lid back onto his thermos and asked their first question: “Why are you getting divorced?”
Qiu Qingshi took off her mask and calmly fabricated a lie: “Emotional breakdown.”
This statement was as good as saying nothing.
The man with the buzz cut turned to ask Yao Xiangyi: “How did it break down?”
Yao Xiangyi pointed to Qiu Qingshi and said frankly, “She cheated.”
Qiu Qingshi was incredulous. Divorce is one thing, but why are you throwing dirt on my name?
This CEO is also top-notch when it comes to being a slut!
She slowly turned her head, locking her gaze on Yao Xiangyi, full of murderous intent.
Yao Xiangyi realized her mistake and changed her tune: “No, I cheated.”
The man with the buzz cut had been doing divorce mediation for over a decade and had developed a keen intuition. He immediately sensed something fishy.
“Who exactly cheated?”
Yao Xiangyi, a dignified CEO, feared no one. She stared straight into the man’s eyes, casually crossing her legs, and said at her leisure, “I cheated. Every time I went on a business trip, I had a different girlfriend accompany me. Look at my dark circles; they are very prominent.”
The man with the buzz cut had presbyopia. He found his reading glasses in the drawer, put them on, and observed seriously. He was convinced: “Yes, they are indeed very prominent.”
He then asked Qiu Qingshi: “How did you find out she cheated?”
Qiu Qingshi replied: “I went through her phone.”
The moment the words left her mouth, she began to act.
Tears welled up in her eyes, her pearly teeth bit tightly onto her trembling lower lip, desperately holding back her sobs, striving for one last shred of dignity before parting.
A good actress makes the audience empathize. The man with the buzz cut was drawn into Qiu Qingshi’s performance, feeling boundless sorrow in his heart. What a beautiful girl, yet she tragically married the wrong person.
His gaze toward Yao Xiangyi changed, half anger, half disdain.
Why bother mediating!
“Get divorced! Right now!”
Let this poor girl escape the scumbag and start a wonderful new life.
He slapped two forms onto the table, speaking plainly and simply: “Fill them out!”
He then glanced over and saw a love bite on Qiu Qingshi’s collarbone, bright red, like a strawberry.
He was a seasoned adult, and just by the color, he could tell that the mark was fresh, planted no more than half an hour ago.
The man with the buzz cut’s eyes narrowed.
His inner monologue: It’s impossible for anyone else to have planted it in such a short time! So, this scumbag next to her is the sole suspect.
Qiu Qingshi noticed his gaze lingering on her collarbone, thought to herself, Not good, and hastily pulled her collar up.
The man with the buzz cut snatched the forms back: “Come, explain this.”
Qiu Qingshi tugged at Yao Xiangyi’s sleeve under the table, sending a distress signal.
Yao Xiangyi did not change her expression and handled the situation calmly: “We just had a goodbye pao in the parking lot.”
Yao Xiangyi nudged Qiu Qingshi with her foot, reminding her not to fail at the critical moment.
The great actress Qiu was forced to cooperate with the performance.
She shrank her shoulders, tightly clutched her clothes, and said with tears and sorrow: “Although she was unfaithful to me, she is still the person I loved… I will use this last intimacy to mourn my lost youth and love.”
Ten minutes later, the Maybach drove out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Qiu Qingshi slapped the divorce certificate onto Yao Xiangyi’s face, also delivering a set of light punches.
This time, Yao Xiangyi did not fight back.
“Sweetheart, let’s not be angry.”
“Listen to the lies you made up! My dignity as the number one socialite in Haishi (Shanghai City) is completely ruined!”
Yao Xiangyi clasped her hands together: “My fault, my fault. I will compensate you.”
“I don’t need your compensation!”
Qiu Qingshi pulled out the hotel room key card and threw it at her: “Sleep alone tonight!”
Yao Xiangyi picked it up and tucked it back into Qiu Qingshi’s bag: “Sweetheart, calm down. I’ll buy you a yacht.”
Qiu Qingshi pulled it out and threw it again: “I don’t want it!”
Yao Xiangyi picked it up and tucked it again: “Then I’ll send you a private jet.”
Qiu Qingshi kept pulling it out and throwing it: “Send, send, send, is having money amazing or something?”
Yao Xiangyi kept picking it up and tucking it: “Come find me tonight, and we’ll discuss it more.”
“I’m not coming!”
“You have to come,” Yao Xiangyi wheedled, “I miss you so much.”
“You’re so annoying~”
“Remember to bring the JK uniform.”
“Isn’t a bikini better?”
“Better! Bring several sets, the three-point kind.”
Qin Chun hugged herself tightly: I’m still a child…
