QT: Against My Will

288 5.32 – Empty Crown – The Sleepless Elite’s Wife

“Aw, poor you,” Bing Shi pinched his nose between her thumb and pointer, wrapping her right hand around his neck. She gave him a rescue breath, blowing air into his mouth, puffing up his cheeks like a chipmunk’s.

“...Don’t have too much fun without me.” Smiling, Lu Kai intensified the kiss, his blood circulation restored, feeling how it flooded to his heart and brain. Pulling away reluctantly, he went to pick up Su Luqin, while Bing Shi returned to Su Min’s ward.

It wouldn’t take long before Mo Luwei’s people would notice that something was amiss.

On the way to the airport, Quin Yu picked up his phone and received Lu Kai’s call, ordering his chauffeur, “Stop by the Pujing hospital.”

Li Jie held Su Min tightly in his hold, “Why are you torturing yourself?”

Su Min grasped his arm. She didn’t want Mo Luwei to kill her child. “Senior Li... Take me somewhere where nobody can find me. He killed my father, now he wants to kill my child too.”

“Are you willing to leave?” Seeing her resenting sneer, Li Jie stiffened, caressing Su Min’s cheek, he answered reassuringly, “I’ll take you away at all costs.”

“Senior Li...” Su Min looked at him in gratitude.

.....

“Senior Li ??, I’m baaack.” Bing Shi destroyed the intimate mood as she returned and tried to repair the door. As a crazy fan, how could she allow those two to be together? The door was a bit creaky. It could be moved as usual, but one couldn’t lock it anymore, “Hm, for safety reasons, I think it would be better to let the door be as it is. Calling senior Li’s bodyguard over wasn’t a bad idea, but I don’t think he’ll be able to stop President Mo, or me, hehe.”

“Wait for me,” Li Jie stood up immediately, telling Su Min he had to take care of the current matter and that he would take her away the same night. Reaching the door, he looked at Bing Shi with a dark expression, “You, I appreciate your support, but could you stop following me around? You are invading my privacy.”

Bing Shi avoided his gaze, “Is senior Li Jie speaking about yourself? I... I at least have a reason to like someone.”

Following her gaze, Li Jie spotted Su Min. One would be more likely to be attracted to someone one had no chance with. He, out of all people, should have understood what Silika was going through the most. Unrequited love. Shaking his head, he looked at Silika. It was better to have this crazy fan by his side. What if Silika did something to Su Min out of jealousy? “The man you hit a while ago... He’s dangerous. You shouldn’t have provoked him. Come, I’ll drive you home.”

“Yay!” Bing Shi jumped to the air cheerily and followed Li Jie, “Dangerous? Isn’t he ML’s CEO? I have an acquaintance in the underworld... Hm, shall we let them meet each other, to see who is more dangerous?”

Quin Yu sneezed at the mention of him, arriving at the underground garage, he noticed the familiar person. Wasn’t that man the one who had been lurking around his woman lately? Why was he with Lu Kai’s woman now? Cracking his knuckles, he had an inkling that someone was going to spill some blood today.

The innocent Li Jie led Bing Shi towards the red sports car, parked in the underground garage. He opened the door for her.

“Woah, such a gentleman ??,” Bing Shi squealed in delight and sat on the passenger seat.

Quin Yu coughed up blood at the difference of treatment.

Seeing how Li Jie wanted to make a few phone calls, Bing Shi showed him her new driving license, “You seem busy. I can drive.”

She was right. Wouldn’t an average person be afraid to scratch such a piece of art? She didn’t even ask what to do. Instead of asking himself how the ‘poor’ Silika knew how to drive such filthy expensive supercars, the stressed Li Jie didn’t know what got into him, but he gave her the keys and switched their seats. Together, they drove to her apartment. He made one call after another, using all his contacts to protect Su Min.

Quin Yu became even more confused when Lu Kai appeared with another woman.

Su Luqin, with the help of her uncle, schemed her own kidnapping, planning to put the blame on Su Min.

Only when Lu Kai suddenly pushed Su Luqin down, and used a duck tape to immobilize Su Luqin did she realize that what was happening to her was beyond her control, his eerie tone brought chills through her whole soul, “You caught my wife’s attention. I don’t like it...Why can’t you keep your ill intentions to yourself and stop blaming the wrong person? You went through hell yourself but still didn’t learn that Karma is a bitch. ”

He would tend to get more jealous of women than men. The reason was obvious. His Bing Shi, or better to say Biyu, was too biased and protective towards women and children. Su Min was a pregnant woman, which his wife viewed as 2in1. Either way, he would become gloomy whenever something interrupted his and Bing Shi’s night routine together.

When Su Luqin wanted to push Su Min into the sea, she was the one to fall instead. She had survived in the wilderness for two years, gang-raped by a group of savage men. Her body was covered in scars, cut with the branches of the tree when she tried to resist and run away. She had been saved by an accident. When she returned, the man who promised to marry her, Mo Luwei, didn’t look at her the same way as before.

Quin Yu stared at the irked Lu Kai from the rear mirror unbelievingly. “Did something happen to your wife?”

“No... My wife... she...” Lu Kai let go of the horrified Su Luqin and looked out of the car window, sighing at himself, “She...likes role-playing... and...” He pumped his head against the car window, already missing his Bing Shi, “And... I couldn’t say no.”

“What the fuck man?” Quin Yu couldn’t help but nag. Lu Kai had been making fun of his change of personality after meeting Aoi Hong. It was his turn now.

Hiding his expression from Quin Yu, Lu Kai stared into Su Luqin’s eyes, trying to read her thoughts, to see if by any chance her hatred switched to his wife. Depending on the soul’s defenses, one could only read the surface of its thoughts, not everything.

Su Min couldn’t stay put any longer. She was afraid that Mo Luwei would send someone to get rid of her and her child. She changed her clothes and secretly escaped from the hospital to grab a taxi. There was a dull ache in her abdomen, but she paid no attention to it. She sent Li Jie a message that she would be waiting for him at the railway station. She thought that Mo Luwei would be unable to find her here.

Li Jie received Su Min’s message and immediately called her number, informing Bing Shi, “Go to the railway station. Su Min is waiting for us there.”

“What? Did I hear right? Doctors and nurses represent the best of humanity, and she decides to flee from them?” Bing Shi couldn’t believe her ears, unable to turn around immediately, she could only wait for the road to allow it.

“She is afraid that Mo Luwei would order the doctors to kill her child,” Li Jie defended Su Min’s pitiful situation.

“It’s her body and her child. No sane doctor would do it. Her location is probably being tracked, president Mo wouldn’t allow her to roam around freely, especially after he caught you two together,” said Bing Shi from her own experience when Xuan Mu would track her every movement during his sickness, “Mo Luwei would need to use illegal ways to abort her child. Kicking her in the stomach would be easier... less witnesses, you know? It’s her, who is killing her child by running around in that pregnant state.”

“...” Li Jie impatiently waited for his call to be picked up. Compared to him, the woman by his side was scarily calm.

Su Min was about to pick up Li Jie’s call, but her shoulder was suddenly yanked over by brute force. She didn’t expect it to be Mo Luwei, her phone fell on the ground. All she could think about was how he could find her. Did he follow her to the railway station?

“Su Min, you have the guts to escape from me?!” asked Mo Luwei, his tone frightening, making her tremble. Because they were in public, he quickly took her away.

`Girl, please, put some resistance in such a crowded place!`

When they reached Mo Luwei’s car, he threw Su Min inside, dialing the hospital’s number, “Cheap bitch! If you’re so impatient to elope with Li Jie, I’ll arrange the abortion now!”

`Well, it’s not easy to escape a control freak, a handsomely powerful at that...`
