A Substitute Bride With Multiple Identities
Chapter 411: Why does it linger so persistently?

Chapter 411: Chapter 411: Why does it linger so persistently?

Qi Yunqian’s face was twisted in agony, his heart was filled with indescribable sorrow, and a thick sense of blood surged up his throat.

She really would rather die than leave his side.

Would rather die than be with him.

This realization shook Qi Yunqian to his core, threatening to topple his world.

Seeing him silent, Song Shiwei’s eyes hardened with determination, and she made to cut herself again.

Her resolute appearance triggered an intense fear in Qi Yunqian’s heart, and he suddenly cried out, his voice thick with a bloody taste as if it were squeezed from his throat, "I agree to your terms!"

"I agree to let you go! Stop hurting yourself!"

Song Shiwei’s taut heart suddenly relaxed.

She had gambled correctly!

Seeing the relief on her face, Qi Yunqian strode forward abruptly, snatching the dagger from Song Shiwei’s hand and tossing it far away.

Qi Yunqian knelt before Song Shiwei, his hands trembling as he covered her abdominal wound, his hands quickly stained red with fresh blood.

He freed one hand to take out his phone and quickly dialed for emergency services.

Looking at the blood that stained her abdomen red, Qi Yunqian’s eyes became bloodshot, and for the first time, a layer of mist rose in the eyes of the usually stoic man.

He glared at Song Shiwei, his teeth clenched with rage, "Song Shiwei, you are cruel!"

Pale-faced, Song Shiwei let out a scoffing laugh, her eyes cold as she looked at him, "If I weren’t cruel, how would you agree to let me go?"

"Don’t think you can wriggle out of this. If I could seek death once, I can do it a second time," Song Shiwei said fiercely, her blood-stained hand suddenly grabbing Qi Yunqian’s collar and pulling him close to her face.

"As you know, the one thing inmates aren’t short of are ways to commit suicide."

Qi Yunqian’s entire heart ached almost to numbness, he held tight over Song Shiwei’s wound, his eyes red, his voice hoarse and through gritted teeth, he said, "Song Shiwei, you are heartless."

Song Shiwei gave a weak laugh, "Towards you, I don’t need that unnecessary thing."

Qi Yunqian suddenly closed his eyes, feeling as if his heart was being viciously torn by an invisible hand, a pain that made his breathing heavy.

Soon after, the sound of an ambulance could be heard.

Medical personnel arrived with a stretcher and rushed Song Shiwei to the hospital, with Qi Yunqian by her side.

While Song Shiwei was being treated in the emergency room and Qi Yunqian was waiting outside, he realized his legs were weak.

So weak that he could barely stand, and had to lean against the wall for support.

Qi Yunqian’s back against the wall, he slowly slid down to sit on the floor, staring vacantly at his hands stained with Song Shiwei’s blood, lost in thought.

After a long while, he slowly clenched his fists and buried his face into them.

Soon, tears mixed with blood fell through the gaps between his fingers.

Drop by drop they hit the floor.

At this moment, Jiang Luoshu happened to come to the hospital to get sedatives for her mother.

She had just gotten a prescription from a doctor she had recently met, left his office, and was about to go downstairs, when she inadvertently caught sight of the man squatting in the corridor with blood on his hands, looking particularly distraught.

For a moment, Jiang Luoshu almost impulsively went over to ask about his situation.

But upon seeing Qi Yunqian’s look of absolute despair, Jiang Luoshu surmised that the person in trouble might not be him, but the one he had kept locked up in the villa.

After thinking it over, Jiang Luoshu didn’t approach him but instead asked a passing nurse, pointing in the direction of Qi Yunqian, "Miss, may I ask, what happened to that man over there?"

The nurse looked in the direction she was pointing, and responded, "Oh, that man? Who knows what game he and his wife were playing at home. His wife was stabbed in the abdomen and is now being resuscitated in the emergency room."

The nurse shook her head with a tsk-tsk and walked away, pushing her cart, "These rich people really do play with their lives."

Song Shiwei got stabbed?

Jiang Luoshu’s face showed a hint of surprise. She looked at Qi Yunqian for a while and after some thought, she took out her phone and sent a message to Madam Qi.

-

I don’t know how long it had been when Qi Yunqian reached a point of almost despair.

The door to the emergency room was opened by someone, and the doctor came out.

Qi Yunqian’s eyes lit up, ignoring the numbness in his legs, he quickly stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Doctor, how is my... friend doing?"

"She’s very lucky, her spleen wasn’t damaged, it’s just that the wound is quite large and she lost too much blood. We’ve already given her a transfusion and stitched up the wound,"

"The patient is still a bit weak, and I recommend that she be hospitalized for recuperation."

Removing his mask, the doctor said to Qi Yunqian, "Also, it’s best not to let her eat things like soy sauce before the stitches are removed and don’t let her go into the sun, or she’ll scar."

Qi Yunqian let out a deep sigh of relief, the weight he had been carrying finally fell from his shoulders: "I understand, thank you, doctor."

After transferring Song Shiwei from the emergency room to a regular ward, Qi Yunqian went to settle the bills before returning to the ward to sit down.

Because of the anesthetic, Song Shiwei was still sound asleep.

Qi Yunqian looked at her peaceful sleeping face and couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

If she could be this obedient after waking up, that would be wonderful.

But unfortunately, he would never get the chance to see Song Shiwei act sweet and obedient in front of him in his lifetime.

To put it bluntly, the ferocity with which she acted against him truly scared him.

He would rather Song Shiwei hurt him, even killed him, than see her harm herself.

That was more painful to him than any wound on his body.

It was the kind of pain that made life feel worse than death.

"I really do owe you in this lifetime," Qi Yunqian extended his hand, gently caressing her fair and soft cheek, murmuring with bitterness.

At that moment, bang!

The door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open with force.

The frantic voice of Mrs. Qi rang out: "Yunqian, I heard people say you were hospitalized, what’s wrong with you? Are you sick?"

The hand that Qi Yunqian had on Song Shiwei’s cheek paused slightly before retracting it.

He turned his head to look at Mrs. Qi, who was frantic: "Mom, I’m fine."

Seeing Qi Yunqian unscathed, Mrs. Qi immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "That’s good. You really scared me. I thought something had happened to you..."

Before she could finish speaking, she spotted Song Shiwei lying behind Qi Yunqian on the hospital bed. Her eyebrows immediately furrowed, and her face showed a trace of displeasure: "Why is it her again? Yunqian, what on earth is going on here?"

If you were to ask who was genuinely happy about Qi Yunqian and Song Shiwei’s divorce, aside from Fu Yu, it would be Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi had always looked down on Song Shiwei.

Leaving aside whether her marriage to Qi Yunqian could bring any advantage to the Qi family, just the fact that she had been in jail was enough to dissatisfy Mrs. Qi.

She believed that her son was a dragon among men.

To put it extravagantly, even pairing him with a princess of a small country would be more than sufficient.

Song Shiwei was not someone who could climb to his level.

But at the time, Qi Yunqian insisted on marrying her, and not wanting to strain their mother-son relationship, Mrs. Qi reluctantly agreed.

She planned to teach Song Shiwei proper manners once she married into the family.

However, not long after they got their marriage certificate and before the wedding ceremony, they divorced.

This made Mrs. Qi so happy that she almost wanted to set off a string of firecrackers.

But now, she saw this little wretch, Song Shiwei, again.

It made Mrs. Qi very unhappy.

Why was she lingering like a bad spirit?
