Chapter 47: Chapter 47: No Way to Divorce

Cheng Su saw Qi Taiguo standing still and reached out to pull him, "What are you looking at? Aren’t we in a hurry?"

Qi Taiguo withdrew his gaze and said, "Nothing, I just felt like someone was watching us."

Cheng Su looked up and said, "Are you seeing things? Even if someone is looking, with all these people coming and going, they’re looking at you?"

"Maybe I was mistaken!" Qi Taiguo followed her out of the hospital.

"You, always claiming to be so sure of yourself. You scared Jisheng so badly, he turned into a big old bear, all timid. I actually felt sorry for him cowering like that," Cheng Su couldn’t help but comment.

When she returned to the maternity ward on the second floor, she saw Qi Taiguo at the corner grabbing Jisheng by the collar, glaring fiercely with anger pulsating in his bulging veins.

Poor Jisheng, already skinny and short, looked even more pitiful shaking like a baby chick as Qi Taiguo twisted his collar.

"He deserved it!" said Qi Taiguo with a stern face, "My sister was so good to him, so hardworking and dutiful. And him? When it really mattered, he abandoned her. I didn’t beat him to death only because he’s my sister’s husband."

"You really hit him?" Cheng Su was surprised; she didn’t see any injuries.

"I hit him where it doesn’t show," Qi Taiguo said, as if he knew what she was thinking.

Cheng Su gave him a sly look, "That’s enough. After all, my sister is still going to live with him. If they harbor grudges in their hearts, it’ll only make her life all the more miserable."

Beating him might instill fear, but who knows whether it will foster more bitterness and resentment towards Fenglian, making their lives even harder.

After all, even if they support her, they can’t quench a fire that is close with distant water.

"If it really comes to it, just divorce."

Cheng Su raised an eyebrow. His words were similar to what she’d said initially, so she laughed, "Telling her to divorce is like telling her to die." Seeing Qi Taiguo’s incredulous stare, she quickly added, "That’s what your mom told me when I said it. So, you’d better make sure your mom doesn’t hear this."

Qi Taiguo frowned, somewhat displeased. What’s this ’your mom, my mom’? Did they really need to differentiate so clearly?

Somehow, he suddenly disliked the clear division between ’you’ and ’me’ in her speech, but he didn’t say anything.

Qi Taiguo asked, "So you said that too?"

"Yes. Nowadays, who can’t live without whom? The world keeps turning. What’s the big deal with divorce? If you can’t live together, then split up, everyone is the same," said Cheng Su, walking ahead without noticing that Qi Taiguo had stopped following. "Women can hold up half the sky. If they get divorced, with hands and feet available, can’t they earn a living?"

Suddenly, realizing there was no one by her side, she stopped and turned around, "Hey, why aren’t you moving? Aren’t we going back to Qing City?"

Qi Taiguo caught up, glaring at her. "So that’s what you think too? If we can’t get along, just get a divorce?" He remembered her talk of mutual love – what nonsense!

Cheng Su was taken aback.

"Is that so?" Qi Taiguo pressed with an intense gaze.

Cheng Su nodded, "If we can’t live together, of course I’ll divorce. Why would I cling to a stagnant pool?"

Hearing her speak so lightly, Qi Taiguo’s face darkened, "I am a soldier, and there is no word for divorce in my vocabulary!"

With that, he strode forward. Thinking of divorcing him, no way!

Cheng Su watched his back, a bit baffled. What was he getting angry about? She hurriedly followed him, "Hey, wait for me, let’s go together!"

She caught up and grabbed Qi Taiguo’s arm. He shook her off. She grabbed again, he shook her off again, and again she reached for him. The two of them went on, pulling and tugging each other into the distance.
