I Married the Second Male Lead After Reincarnating

Chapter 22

Qin Zhen hung up the phone and immediately threw the yellow rose into the trash can before rushing to the hospital. But even before he entered the door, he heard Shen Qingyue’s sarcastic voice, “Nurse, use less gauze, can’t you understand? There won’t be any blood visible soon. How pitiful…”

Qin Zhen’s face darkened as he pushed open the ward door.

As soon as he saw him, Wei Jiu’er’s eyes immediately turned red. “Zhen…”

Qin Zhen furrowed his brow. “What happened?”

Wei Jiu’er shook her head, feeling wronged. “It’s nothing, just a shallow wound…”

“What exactly happened?”

Wei Jiu’er was waiting for Qin Zhen to ask this question, ready to complain about Shen Qingyue’s malicious actions. Suddenly, she remembered what Shen Qingyue had said before leaving the company. She paused for a moment and went straight to the point. “I went to explain the incident from the other night to Qingyue. I wanted to tell her that nothing happened between us, but she went crazy and didn’t listen to me. She even injured me… She said you won’t divorce her. You’ve been evading the topic of divorce multiple times, so you must still have feelings for her. Even if I die, it doesn’t matter to her…”

Shen Qingyue watched from the side, clicking her tongue twice. This pretentious acting and dialogue would probably only be believed by a fool like Qin Zhen. She suddenly wanted to see Chi Ming, not for any other reason, just to refresh her eyes.

Sure enough, foolish Qin Zhen wholeheartedly believed Wei Jiu’er’s words. Seeing the large amount of blood-soaked gauze on the cart, he rushed over and grabbed Shen Qingyue by the collar. “Shen Qingyue! Why are you always so cruel? Do you really think I can’t let go of you?”

Facing Qin Zhen’s anger, Shen Qingyue remained expressionless. She had lost count of how many times this had happened. After all, regardless of her actions in this life or the previous one, as long as Wei Jiu’er said a word, Qin Zhen would always be like this.

After cutting off any thoughts about him, Shen Qingyue increasingly doubted herself. How could she have fallen for such a man in the first place?

A sarcastic smile curved her lips. “I call you foolish, but you still don’t believe it. Didn’t you know it all along? I am a ruthless person. Framing others, using coercion, manipulation, and taking what I want by force—aren’t these common practices for me?”

Qin Zhen felt something was off about Shen Qingyue’s attitude, but he could not pinpoint exactly what it was. While he was lost in thought, Shen Qingyue pushed him away. “If you ask me, just go ahead and get a divorce. My mental state is very unstable now. If we keep dragging it on, one day this heartless and ruthless woman might really resort to violence, and then it’ll be too late to call an ambulance.”

Although Wei Jiu’er’s scheme was full of loopholes, Shen Qingyue couldn’t be bothered to explain. She had completely lost patience when it came to the topic of divorce. If they really went to court, it would still have some impact on the Shen family’s conglomerate.

Qin Zhen gritted his teeth. “Did you injure Jiu’er just for the sake of divorce?”

Shen Qingyue replied calmly, “Believe whatever you want. I’ve said my piece.”

“How can you injure someone and still be so self-righteous!” Qin Zhen shouted, “Wasn’t it someone else who forced you to marry me? You went to great lengths to marry me, leaving Jiu’er trapped overseas. Now you’ve injured her like this for the sake of divorce. Have you gone mad?”

Shen Qingyue’s tone remained calm. “Was it me who forced you to take that five billion? When you took the money, you made solemn promises, saying that as long as my Shen family lent your Qin family five billion, you would protect me for the rest of your life. And what happened? You ignored me, treating me like an enemy, having an affair with Wei Jiu’er, and resorting to emotional violence against me. Watching your mother set rules for me… I don’t want to mention it anymore. What right do you have to question me?”

Qin Zhen instinctively retorted, “You brought it upon yourself! It was just a casual remark, a bet between friends, and you willingly married me!”

“Yes, yes, you’re right. I was the one who blinded myself and fell for you. Who can I blame? It’s my own fault! Let’s just get a divorce, so we don’t have to bother each other anymore.” Shen Qingyue’s eyes were filled with sharp and icy sarcasm.

“Then how do you account for injuring Jiu’er? Intentionally hurting someone. Just wait for the court summons!” After Qin Zhen said this, Shen Qingyue showed no signs of panic, and Wei Jiu’er could not sit still.

“Zhen, it’s not Qingyue’s fault. It’s our fault for starting it. We don’t have the right to blame her.” Wei Jiu’er pretended to cough a few times. “It’s my fault for ruining your marriage… If you really don’t want to divorce her, I’ll back out. You can live well with her…”

Seeing her getting up, Qin Zhen quickly went over to support her. “It’s not that I don’t want to divorce her, I just can’t bear to see you suffer.”

Wei Jiu’er weakly said, “I’ll be fine. This is what I deserve…”

Qin Zhen said, “It’s clearly Shen Qingyue who is heartless and ruthless!”
