章節 12: Acting Weak

編輯: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Qu Xiao stood rooted to the spot.

No way! How could it be! Qu Xiao felt a chill down her spine and her scalp turned numb.

Shang Yan's impression of her would probably worsen after seeing how cruel she was to Shang Liqing.

Qu Xiao was racking her brain about how to explain when messy footsteps passed by her.

Shang Xinchen hurriedly ran over to Shang Liqing with ice. With a concerned expression, he applied ice on her swollen face. "Liqing, are you alright?"

Shang Liqing pointed at Qu Xiao and said in a low voice, "I can't believe she hit me!" She was so angry that she even stammered a little.

Shang Xinchen was there the whole time when Qu Xiao slapped Shang Liqing. Qu Xiao always gave them the impression that she was timid and weak, but now that she suddenly erupted with such a powerful energy and even dared to hit people, Shang Xinchen and Shang Liqing were completely stunned.

They looked at Qu Xiao with vigilance and fear, which never happened before.

When Qu Xiao saw Shang Xinchen, she was so relieved that it was not Shang Yan.

She was about to pick up the broken glass, but when she bent over, a hand grabbed her wrist. It was cold and strong.

Qu Xiao mistakenly thought that the bodyguard from the Shang family wanted to attack her. She controlled him and wanted to make use of the inertia to throw him down.

The moment she exerted her strength, Qu Xiao saw the aluminum alloy of Shang Yan's wheelchair and his trousers. She immediately retracted her strength.

Qu Xiao's heart skipped a beat when she saw Shang Yan's curious eyes.

Could he have noticed something?

She thought for a moment and immediately held his hand with both hands. She staggered as if she could not stand still and looked at him with misty eyes.

Droplets of water fell from her hair and landed on the back of Shang Yan's hand. He narrowed his eyes and frowned when he saw the wet spot on Qu Xiao's clothes.

Qu Xiao bit her red lips coyly. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She choked and complained, "Honey, what took you so long?"

"Someone must have instigated Liqing to come here and force me to let Qu Qi out. I refused, so Liqing called them to catch me..."

Qu Xiao pointed at all the bodyguards present, leaving no one out.

She was very vengeful!

Shang Yan recalled what he had seen when he entered the room. Which one was the real her?

There were clearly doubt and confusion in his eyes. But he saw Qu Xiao's tears rolling down her cheeks. She sobbed softly and looked at him with anticipation like a helpless girl. He couldn't help but be moved.

"Liqing, what's going on?"

Shang Liqing did not expect her brother to believe Qu Xiao. She stood up excitedly. "Qu Xiao is out of her mind! She wanted to kill me!"

"Didn't you guys see that? I will call the police and get her under control!"

"If she dares to attack me today, she might attack my brother tomorrow! This kind of woman is scary!"

Shang Liqing put all the blame on Qu Xiao, and she looked at Qu Xiao smugly and provocatively with a cunning smile.

Shang Xinchen and Shang Yan would definitely believe her!

Shang Liqing was waiting for Qu Xiao to beg for mercy out of fear, but she did not expect Shang Yan to look at her quietly and ask, "Is that true?"

Qu Xiao was a little surprised as she did not expect Shang Yan to ask her. However, she quickly seized the opportunity. "Liqing started it!"

"Ever since I married you and came into the Shang family, I've wanted to be a good wife and sister-in-law."

"But for some reason, Liqing was always picky about me. She would bully me when you were not around and even hit me. I know that she's your sister and that you love her, so I've endured it.

"But today, she asked me to release Qu Qi, the murderer who wanted to harm me."

"I suddenly realized that Liqing never treated me as a family. That's why I resisted and accidentally hurt her..."

Qu Xiao was extremely engrossed as she exaggerated all the evil deeds that Shang Liqing had done in the past.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the butler."

Everyone in the villa had seen Shang Liqing bullying her, but no one dared to tell the truth.

Shang Yan looked at the butler, his eyes cold as he asked silently.

The butler remained silent, proving that Qu Xiao was not lying.

The temperature around Shang Yan dropped several degrees. His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the wheelchair, making him look intimidating.

Shang Liqing hid behind Shang Xinchen, afraid that her brother would punish her.

Qu Xiao rubbed her palm and secretly raised her eyes to look at Shang Yan timidly.

"There's already a witness, and you still don't believe me? If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance footage!"

Shang Liqing saw her pointing at the surveillance camera and felt so guilty that she avoided Shang Yan's gaze.

Her abnormal behavior just proved that Qu Xiao was telling the truth.

Shang Yan took the towel from the butler and passed it to Qu Xiao to wipe off the water stains on her body.

Qu Xiao pushed him away gently and sat on the sofa stubbornly and pitifully. "I'm fine. Don't mind me. You don't believe me anyway."

Shang Yan saw the blood seeping out of her arm and felt frustrated. He stared at Shang Xinchen. "Move aside!"

"Shang Liqing, stand there!"


章節 13: Mental Hospital

編輯: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Shang Liqing was so nervous that she was twisting her fingers. She stared at the floor, not daring to even raise her head.

Ever since she was young, even if she made a mistake, Shang Yan would not reprimand her at all. He would even ask their parents to forgive her.

But now, he was siding with Qu Xiao and wanted to punish and reprimand her?

Shang Liqing looked at Qu Xiao with grievance. When she saw the faint smile on Qu Xiao's lips, she felt a bit strange.

How could a person change so drastically in just a few days?

Confusion filled Shang Liqing's heart. She looked at Shang Yan and said abruptly, "Don't you think that Qu Xiao has been acting weird recently?"

"She talks like a crazy person and hurts people. And she seems very unstable. There's probably something wrong with her head!"

"Why don't we get a psychiatrist to do a checkup for her? She needs medication if she is ill. If she is healthy, I will apologize for my mistake! I will not make the same mistake again."

Shang Liqing said encouragingly. She secretly gave Shang Xinchen a nudge, signaling him to say something and help her convince Shang Yan.

Shang Xinchen thought about the situation yesterday and also felt that something was wrong with Qu Xiao. He agreed, "Yeah, I think Liqing is right."

"Call the doctor over for a checkup. There's no harm in that!"

Qu Xiao looked at them in amusement but realized that Shang Yan was looking at her with narrowed eyes without rejecting.

Crap.

Her heart sank. Could it be that her strange behavior had aroused his suspicion?

Shang Liqing suggested, "I know a psychiatrist from a first rate hospital. I can invite him over..."

Under their combined efforts, Qu Xiao had no choice but to sit in the living room and wait for the doctor's arrival.

Qu Xiao stood up and went to the kitchen. She poured another cup of lemon water and passed it to Shang Yan.

"I learned it from the nanny. She said you don't like ginger soup. It's raining outside, and your body is cold. Drink it to warm yourself up."

Qu Xiao's voice was calm, though she was still angry at him for not believing her.

Holding the warm glass, Shang Yan recalled that Qu Xiao had said that she was waiting for him to come back. He stared deeply at her and tilted his head to take a sip. His eyes were filled with scrutiny and inquiry.

Qu Xiao was looking at her phone under his gaze and pretended to be calm.

Ding dong. The doorbell rang.

"I'll go get the doctor!" Shang Liqing ran out first and secretly gave the doctor a look.

"I'll count on you!"

The doctor nodded. "Don't worry. The equipment we brought today has been tampered with. Even a normal person will be diagnosed with some mental problem."

Shang Liqing was relieved and happily brought the doctor into the room. She enthusiastically discussed the relevant matters regarding the test.

Qu Xiao was lying flat on the bed and the doctor had pasted examination patches on her head.

After a few simple questions, the device let out a warning buzz.

The doctor removed the equipment and signaled for Qu Xiao to wait in the room for a while. He then brought the printed report to Shang Yan.

"Mr. Shang, your wife's mental health report shows that she has severe mental disorders and needs to be hospitalized for treatment."

"If the treatment is delayed, it might cause irreversible damage to the patient's mental state. She will not be able to live as a normal person in the future. Please make a decision as soon as possible. I will contact the hospital for you and conduct long-term treatment for her."

Shang Xinchen snatched the report over. He looked at the densely packed numbers and symbols and mumbled, "Look, she is indeed sick!"

Shang Yan frowned. Through the ajar door, he saw Qu Xiao lying quietly inside with a cold expression.

Was her recent abnormality, including her concern for him, due to mental illness?

Everything was fake?

For some reason, Shang Yan felt uncomfortable.

Afraid that Shang Yan would reject the offer, Shang Liqing said hurriedly, "Brother, Qu Xiao won't stay in the mental hospital for the rest of her life. When she's in a better state of mind, we can bring her back. This is for her own good!"

"Butler, what are you waiting for? Pack up Qu Xiao's clothes and daily necessities and take her away later!"

Shang Liqing wished she could pack up for Qu Xiao herself. As long as Qu Xiao moved out of the villa, it would be much harder for her to return!

As long as there was a medical record in a mental hospital, Shang Liqing could expose it to the media.

By then, Qu Xiao and Shang Yan would definitely get a divorce!

Shang Liqing was thinking about her future plan and vision and did not notice Qu Xiao walking out of the room.

Seeing that they were taking her clothes out, Qu Xiao frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

Shang Xinchen quickly replied, "To send you to the hospital, of course!"

"The current technology is very advanced. As long as you follow the doctor's treatment plan, you will have a chance of recovery!"

Shang Xinchen looked at Qu Xiao with sympathy and pity. This made her feel so frustrated that she almost fainted from anger.

Mental illness?!

They were the ones out of their god*mn mind!

Qu Xiao recalled the entire process of the examination and the final results. She knew that he must have made a false report!

She saw how Shang Liqing and the doctor were exchanging secret glances. She said knowingly, "Doctor, can I ask you a few questions?"

"If you can answer, I'll go to the hospital with you."
