After dinner, Bai Wan Yun wanted to keep Qin Muni and Xu Yisen at ho for the night, but Qin Muni refused.
Bai Wan Yun didn't press her further, just instructed Xu Yisen to make sure to safely send Qin Muni ho!
The cold of the night in early winter was biting, and as they walked out the door, the evening breeze gently brushed past, the icy air like needles piercing the skin, bringing a pang of pain.
Qin Muni shrugged her shoulders and quickened her pace, while Xu Yisen seized her wrist.
Qin Muni slightly raised her eyebrows, looking up at Xu Yisen in confusion.
The hazy moonlight leaped into his ink-black eyes, illuminating them exceptionally bright, as if fragnts of light sparkled inside.
His usual cold deanor was gone, replaced by a gentleness Qin Muni was unfamiliar with.
Xu Yisen took off his wool coat and gently draped it over Qin Muni's shoulders, "It's cold."
The sudden added weight on her shoulders and the warmth from the coat made Qin Muni widen her eyes in surprise.
"Let's go." With these words, Xu Yisen habitually reached out to hold Qin Muni's cold hand and continued walking.
Qin Muni allowed Xu Yisen's warm, large hand to envelop her small hand. She lowered her eyes, staring at the shadow stretched by the moonlight on the ground, and softly spoke: "Yisen."
"Hmm?"
"We are already divorced, you don't have to pretend to be affectionate with anymore."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt Xu Yisen tighten his grip on her hand.
Xu Yisen didn't answer Qin Muni's words. After a brief silence, he shifted the topic, "I heard it will rain tonight, we should hurry back."
Qin Muni saw that Xu Yisen didn't want to address her words, yet she couldn't understand why, since they were clearly divorced, he still pretended to be so affectionate in front of others?
Once they reached the car, Xu Yisen gentlemanly opened the passenger seat door for Qin Muni, waited for her to get in, then closed the door and walked around to the driver's seat.
It took half an hour to drive from the Xu Family's to Qin Muni's ho. To prevent an awkward silence in the car, Qin Muni suggested Xu Yisen turn on the radio.
"Recently, news of the divorce between Fanshu Group Chairman Xu Yisen and his wife Qin Muni has been causing a stir in the dia, and neither has stated the reason for their divorce.
Today, Qin Muni appeared on the talk show 'Rujiaqi Talk,' her first dia appearance since the divorce.
In the program, she admitted that she initiated the divorce, and the reason was being accused of showing no signs of pregnancy after three years of marriage, being mocked by so netizens as a hen that couldn't lay eggs, and selfishly occupying the position of Madam Xu..."
On the entertainnt radio, the male anchor was talking animatedly about the gossip involving Qin Muni and Xu Yisen.
Qin Muni turned her gaze to the window, listening attentively to the half-true news on the radio.
Rumble.
As the car drove halfway, the night was pierced by a bright white light, followed by deafening thunder.
Raindrops fell from the dark sky, pattering against the car windows.
Even with the car door closed, the raging wind howling outside could still be clearly heard, carrying a hint of nace.
The rain that Xu Yisen ntioned earlier had finally arrived.
The two remained silent for the entire journey until the car reached the underground parking lot of the complex where Qin Muni lived.
Qin Muni took off the wool coat draped over her shoulders and handed it to Xu Yisen, who was sitting in the driver's seat, "Thank you for bringing back."
