Chapter 2 Undignified Woman

  • A woman was twisting her alluring figure relentlessly on a man's body as she complained. “Tiansheng, your ringtone is killing the mood!”
  • “Go and fetch my phone over. Switch off that damn phone!” said Xie Tiansheng as he slapped the woman's round buttocks.
  • “Okay....” The woman got up from his body and tiptoed toward the sofa to pick up the phone. She spoke with a coquettish smile. “What are we going to do? It's a call from your wife.”
  • Xie Tiansheng's face darkened. He corrected the woman. “She's my ex-wife now!”
  • The woman smiled. “Should I hang up the call then?”
  • “No need for that. Just answer the call!”
  • “You want me to answer the call?” The woman replied, obviously aghast at his suggestion.
  • “What's the matter? Are you afraid that she'll recognize your voice?” Xie Tiansheng smiled impishly at the woman.
  • But the woman smiled skittishly and said, “Well, she's going to know about us anyway!”
  • She swiped the screen and received the call as she strode toward that man with her pair of slender and fair-skinned legs.
  • “Hello!” Xia Muqing's gentle voice can be heard through the speaker. At the same time, the woman had positioned herself brazenly on Xie Tiansheng's muscular hips and moaned flirtatiously.
  • “Ah...” The sexual moans penetrated Xia Muqing's auditory sense. Her pale face flushed red at that instant.
  • “I… I'm looking for Xie Tiansheng...” Muqing's voice was trembling, and her hand that was holding the phone was trembling violently.
  • “He's very busy right now! You can talk to me instead. I'm his fiancée....”
  • “Ahh.... Tiansheng, slow down for a bit... slow down... ahhhh....” The woman's voice coupled with a man's labored breathing washed over Xia Muqing as she listened to the sound originating from the other end of the phone.
  • Xia Muqing felt a heart-wrenching pain as if someone was tearing her heart into pieces.
  • Fiancée? He's already found a backup wife for himself before we even finalize our divorce?
  • Muqing took a deep breath and suppressed her urge to break down in tears. “Please tell Xie Tiansheng that I won't be able to make it to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow....”
  • Xia Muqing strained herself to finish that sentence. She hung up the phone before she received any response from the other end of the call.
  • Tears fell from her cheeks, and her fragile body slumped onto the cold hard floor in despair. She covered her face with her hands and broke down in tears the next second.
  • Xie Tiansheng, what did I do to wrong you for you to treat me like this! I've poured all my sincerity to love you and what did I receive in return? Did you even cherish my affection toward you for just a single moment throughout our marriage?!
  • At 2 o'clock in the midnight, Muqing froze for a split second as she sat on the sofa in a daze when the sound of someone unlocking the door was heard.
  • She then forced herself to put on a smile and without even putting on her shoes, she walked barefooted and welcomed the man that had entered the door.
  • “Tiansheng, you're back!” A hint of obedience and joy filled her gleaming eyes.
  • Muqing thought that her husband would never return home again. She thought that Xie Tiansheng would not want to even see her again on their last night as a married couple. But he came home after all.
  • Xie Tiansheng was startled by Xia Muqing's passionate greetings. He was stunned for a second but quickly put on a frown. Then he entered the house and disregarded the woman's enthusiasm. “Xia Muqing, we must sign the divorce paper tomorrow!”
  • The smile on Xia Muqing's face stiffened. Then she spoke with a diminished voice. “I'm not free tomorrow....”
  • Xie Tiansheng turned around and fixed his cold stare on the woman. Then he scoffed, “Xia Muqing, I knew! You're not willing to cut ties with me!”
  • Muqing took a deep breath to suppress her tears and forced her pretty lips into a faint smile. “Tiansheng, let's not talk about this for now, please?”
  • Deep down in her heart, Muqing had to admit that she was not willing to let go of their relationship, just yet.
  • Xie Tiansheng looked at her with a face filled with disgust. He moved closer to Xia Muqing in just a few steps.
  • With his long fingers, he clasped Muqing tightly on her chin, causing Muqing to frown slightly due to the pain from the unrestrained force that he had exerted on her delicate face.
  • With a tone full of mockery, Xie Tiansheng spoke. “Xia Muqing, did you not listen to that phone call earlier? Are you really going to ignore everything that you've heard? You're such an undignified woman for throwing away the last hint of self-respect toward yourself. You're such a pitiful person!”
  • His cruel words stabbed mercilessly through her heart like a sharp knife.
  • Muqing's shoulder shuddered due to the physical and emotional pain that was inflicted upon her.
  • “Xia Muqing, are you still hoping that I, Xie Tiansheng will still love you? Let me tell you this again, I have never loved you and I never will! All I feel is disgust toward you!”
  • Tears fell from the corner of her eyes as Muqing could no longer suppress her grievances.
  • However, Xie Tiansheng did not even look at her but only turned around and headed upstairs on his own.
