Chapter 421: Chapter 422: Divorce
The person who came was none other than Gu Qichen.
Xia Yangyang was stunned in place.
That night, Gu Qichen didn’t come after her.
However, Xia Yangyang knew that Gu Qichen would most likely be aware of her every move.
After all, Mu Liancheng is his close friend.
When Xia Yangyang went to find Wen Xiaochu, she had no intention of hiding it from Gu Qichen.
Right now, what Xia Yangyang needed was some time to calm down.
And think about her future.
But Xia Yangyang also knew that she would ultimately have to confront Gu Qichen.
Sooner or later, she would have to face him and their marriage.
After the nurse finished taking Xia Yangyang’s temperature, she left the room.
When she saw Gu Qichen at the door, she looked surprised, with a hint of curiosity.
Gu Qichen had already come in and said, “Liancheng only told me this morning that you were in the hospital.”
Xia Yangyang could tell that he was trying to explain himself.
Gu Qichen was implying that if he knew she was hospitalized yesterday, he would have come over last night.
Xia Yangyang turned her head, “I’m fine. I’ll be discharged in a little while.”
Gu Qichen had already walked to Xia Yangyang’s bedside, “I think it’s best to stay in the hospital for observation. I’ve brought you breakfast.”
Only then did Xia Yangyang notice the food box in Gu Qichen’s hand.
And this food box was a thermos from their home.
Which meant that the breakfast was cooked by Gu Qichen himself.
For some unexplainable reason, Xia Yangyang felt a wave of sorrow in her heart.
She didn’t want to drag this out any longer.
These past few days she had finally made up her mind.
“Gu Qichen, since you’re here, let’s get everything out in the open.”
Xia Yangyang said, her gaze firm.
Gu Qichen had an indifferent expression, opened the food box and said, “You eat first. You’ve been craving the chicken soup I make. I’ve been too busy to make it for you, I’m sorry.”
“Gu Qichen, I want a divorce.”
“This chicken soup was simmered by me all night. I was so tired last night that I almost forgot to switch off the stove. It’s thick and savory, just how you like it. Make sure you eat plenty.”
It was like Gu Qichen completely ignored what Xia Yangyang said.
This only infuriated Xia Yangyang more.
Gu Qichen, oblivious to her anger, filled a bowl with soup and handed it to her.
Xia Yangyang responded by swiping it forcefully away.
The bowl of soup fell to the ground, the porcelain shattering on impact.
A silence fell over the room following the sound of shattering.
Their eyes met, one burning with rage, the other icy cold.
Gu Qichen pinched his fingers, his voice icy cold, “Yangyang, I spent two hours making this soup. If you don’t want it, that’s fine, but you shouldn’t throw it away .”
“You’re hurt because I disregarded your efforts? But Gu Qichen, you were the first to disregard my words.”
“I heard every word you said clearly.”
“Good, since you heard, I won’t waste my words. Gu Qichen, let’s get a divorce.”
Gu Qichen stared at Xia Yangyang, his gaze stern.
After a long moment, he coldly let out four words: “Over my dead body.”
Xia Yangyang felt like her heart was trembling.
Xia Yangyang took a deep breath, “Gu Qichen, you asked me why, right? I’ll tell you now…”
“I already know all the reasons why you want to divorce me. My sister has told me everything about the past,” Gu Qichen interjected calmly.
Xia Yangyang was taken aback.
She didn’t expect Gu Mingzhu to honestly tell Gu Qichen about their past.
Wasn’t she afraid that he would hate her?
