My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Multiple Choice (4)

Translator: 549690339

On the day after her parents’ divorce, she ran to the police station and requested that her last name be changed from Bai to Lu. Not long after, her mother was diagnosed with liver cancer during a routine check-up.

It was only later that she learned her mother may have noticed her father’s odd behavior for some time but had kept it from her. Her mother didn’t know that the other woman was her old friend, but she had a vague feeling about her existence. The most foolish thing her mother had done was to confide in that friend about her suspicions of her father’s infidelity and, as a result, for the following years, although her mother had doubts, her father and the other woman had prepared defenses. The stress accumulated over time eventually led to her mother’s liver cancer diagnosis.

Then, at that stage, Qin Zhigu broke up with her.

Because of that former best friend.

She can never forget Qin Zhigu standing silently, yet determinedly in front of her, nor her former best friend clinging to his arm with tears glistening, seemingly weak and pitiful, but with a fleeting, victorious glint in her eyes. It all felt eerily similar to that snow-filled day when she and her mother stood before the Civil Affairs Bureau and said goodbye to her father.

It was a sunny day, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, so why did it feel like it was snowing again?

Then…

She could still recall the surprise written over Qin Zhigu’s face when she appeared as a couple with Qin Zhiyou in front of everyone. Not just him, but her former best friend, the mistress’s mother, her philandering father, the Qin family, Qin Zhiyou’s fiancee and her family, and their friends and relatives. The myriad expressions painted a colorful, fascinating tapestry.

Shortly after, her father left the country with that woman and her daughter. Qin Zhigu and his brother, Qin Zhizha, went overseas to study. The family of Qin Zhiyou’s previous fiancee also moved away.

Once the grandeur faded and they got married, Qin Zhiyou continued to gallivant around, and she was left to study, work, and take care of her sick mother. She was even now dealing with more challenges from Qin Zhiyou. Though she was struggling, she understood that at least she still had options.

Luckily, she was devoid of any emotions towards Qin Zhiyou. No matter how distasteful he was, it was just a matter of tit for tat.

Dreaming, Lu Weixi was visibly distressed, her lips opening and closing. She turned over and curled up like a baby in a womb, feeling a cold chill.

But suddenly, a warm stove seemed to encompass her softly, she involuntarily moved closer to it.

On the bed, Qin Zhiyou’s eyes darkened, his Adam’s apple bobbed, and with a gentle movement, he gathered her into his embrace. After a moment, he tipped his head, lightly brushing his chin on the top of her head. After another while realizing she showed no resistance, he carefully smoothed out the crease between her eyebrows with his finger, as though afraid he’d wake her.

In her uneasy sleep, he heard fragmented sounds coming from her lips. He pulled away slightly to listen more closely.

In her dream, Lu Weixi seemed to feel the warmth moving away and reached out, lightly wrapping her arms around his neck, murmuring in a voice as soft as a kitten’s mew, “Don’t go… don’t leave me… Zhu….”
