Proofread by Zhou Zhijie

Hearing that Qiaosheng won’t blame her, Xia Wanyan feels greatly relieved and leaves him alone without further disturbance. Obediently she retrieves from his office.

As soon as she is out of the door, Li Qiaosheng slightly lifts a corner of his mouth, his eyes full of disdain.

If she had come round and confessed all her mistakes honestly instead of complaining about her being wronged, he would possibly forgive her.

However, things turns out that she has not realized her mistakes at all, and it killed his last bit of tender affection for her. From now on, he will think about nothings but how to make her pay the price she deserves…

As for his father’s death, since Li Qiaosheng now knows about the love between his father and Mu Ziyou’ s mother, he can understand why his father would sacrifice his own life to protect Mu Ziyou from injury in that car accident.

He thinks about his mother’s death. If Mu Ziyou killed her by accident, it is more tolerable than Xia Wanyan’s pushing his mother downstairs on purpose and her fabricating lies to deceive him.

The date of their wedding is still on the due schedule only because he wants to see if Mu Ziyou will show up at the wedding.

As for getting the marriage license, Li Qiaosheng applies various excuses to get it postponed.

Xia Wanyan at this time feels guilty in heart for the filthy deeds she committed, which were exposed by Zhang Lan. She therefore has no gut to force Li Qiaosheng to acquire the marriage license before the wedding. Since everybody in the city knows about their due wedding, why should she worry about his refusal to get the marriage license later?
