Chapter 14
Mrs. Qin nodded. She was used to seeing Shen Qingyue’s submissive manner towards her. At this moment, the person sitting opposite her was so casual and undisciplined, making her somewhat uncomfortable. She said patiently, “Although Qin Zhen and Wei Jiu’er have been in contact for the past few years, there is no actual relationship between them. He did not cheat, and he definitely will not cheat. Qingyue, don’t worry! You are the only daughter-in-law in the Qin family.”
Shen Qingyue sneered, “Madam Qin, are you suggesting that emotional infidelity doesn’t count as cheating? If the person next to you is constantly thinking about another woman day and night, can you be at ease?”
Madam Qin could not argue back.
Shen Qingyue continued, “Moreover, Wei JIu’er has already returned to the country now. Who knows when it will progress from an emotional level to a physical level? After all, how long can such a thing last? I can’t possibly keep an eye on him 24 hours a day.”
Madam Qin assured her, “You can rest assured about that. Although Wei Jiu’er has returned to the country, Qin Zhen has promised me that he won’t contact her again.”
However, as soon as she finished speaking, a mobile phone ringtone echoed in the restaurant.
Qin Zhen stood up. “I’ll go outside to take a call.”
Shen Qingyue asked, “Is it from Wei JIu’er?”
Qin Zhen didn’t deny it and walked out.
Madam Qin didn’t expect her good son to slap her in the face so quickly with his actions. She scolded, “Qin Zhen, sit down!”
Since Qin Zhen was brought here by his mother, he had been holding his breath all the way, showing impatience on his face. Seeing this, he said directly, “JIu’er sent me a message just now, saying that she has a stomachache, she…”
Shen Qingyue found it somewhat amusing. “What’s the matter? Does she need you to personally take her to the hospital? Or is Qin Zhen a doctor? As soon as you arrive, she’ll be fine?”
Qin Zhen glanced at her without answering and walked out of the restaurant.
Shen Jun was so angry that he laughed. “It seems that in President Qin’s eyes, the affairs of outsiders are more important than his wife! Madam Qin, come with us to see your future daughter-in-law. Also, hurry up and settle the divorce. Don’t disgust our family.”
Madam Qin smiled apologetically. “Wei Jiu’er must have something urgent to attend to. Please forgive her. As for the divorce, it would not happen! I won’t let Wei Jiu’er in either!”
Qin Zhen’s phone call lasted for five minutes. When he returned, Mrs. Qin glared at him in disappointment. She gritted her teeth and said, “Finished? Can you sit down and eat?”
Qin Zhen picked up the car keys on the table. “I want to send Jiu ‘er to the hospital…”
Shen Qingyue could not help but laugh out loud. “Oh, looks like President Qin has become a doctor.”
With the presence of the two elders, Qin Zhen’s attitude became more restrained. He didn’t argue with Shen Qingyue and just glared at her before turning and leaving.
Madam Qin was infuriated. She covered her chest and looked as if she was about to faint. She shouted, “Qin Zhen! Come back here!”
But the response she received was the sound of the door closing.
Shen Jun put down his chopsticks and snorted. “Madam Qin, this is your son’s attitude. I may be old, but I’m not blind. It’s already very clear to me. Since his heart is not with Qingyue, there’s no need for us to waste any more time. Let’s part ways amicably. If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for using undignified methods.”
Madam Qin opened her mouth but could not utter a word. This disappointing son of hers! She felt like she was really going to have a heart attack. Can this love-struck son truly lead the Qin Corporation to prosperity?
..
After Wei Jiu’er hung up the call with Qin Zhen, she immediately got someone to contact the doctor on duty at the nearest hospital. She recalled that Shen Qingyue had just sent her a message, saying that Madam Qin had brought Qin Zhen to the Shen family. Although she did not know why Shen Qingyue specifically told her about this matter, she panicked.
Madam Qin was picky and dissatisfied with Shen Qingyue as her daughter-in-law. But Wei JIu’er knew that if Shen Qingyue and Qin Zhen were to divorce, Madam Qin would definitely be the first to oppose it! That woman’s superficiality was deeply ingrained in her bones, and her gaze towards Shen Qingyue was nothing more than seeing her as a pastime.
In addition, the Shen family and the Qin family had frequent business dealings, and the Qin family relied on the Shen family in many aspects. Just for the sake of face, Madam Qin would oppose this matter. Moreover, there were many unclear conflicts of interest involved. Their relationship was no longer as simple as a marriage. And she only had Qin Zhen’s love, so she had to hold onto it tightly! She had finally waited for Qin Zhen and Shen Qingyue to separate. No matter what Qin Zhen was thinking now, as long as he could break free from these interests, if she did not seize this opportunity, should she wait until she died? So she quickly made up her mind and called Qin Zhen, asking him to come and take her to the hospital. If he did not come, she would be at death’s door…
