Chapter 302: Chapter 301: Do You Really Like It That Much?

"No matter what happens, Tongtong is devastated now. Even if you want to divorce, you should speak to her properly. What does it mean to chase her away like that?" the Empress advised earnestly.

"Did you hear me?" Seeing that Si Yuting remained silent for a long time, the Empress even raised her voice deliberately.

"Okay," Si Yuting replied heavily.

Standing in the corridor of the Military Science Academy, Si Yuting logged into the Star Network and checked Qu Tong’s account, finding that her live stream had just ended.

After watching the playback of the live stream, a heavy stone seemed to obstruct Si Yuting’s heart, and his tightly pursed lips remained sealed.

Just then, the notification sound from the Light Brain went off, and Si Yuting saw the memo and immediately answered the call.

But after a while, there was no sound from the other end of the communication.

"Ali?"

The other party hung up without saying anything.

Si Yuting then tried to call Wen You, but no one answered.

Finally, after scouring the Star Network, Si Yuting found a status with just five likes, mentioning that someone had a chance encounter with Qu Tong at Drunken Star River tonight.

When Si Yuting arrived, he saw Qu Tong asleep on the piano.

The neon lights from the skyscrapers outside the window cast a warm glow on the girl’s fair face. Her hair had returned to black and hung smoothly, contouring along her waistline, while her red lips were slightly pursed, moist and full.

Half of the Light Brain was tucked under her face, and the projected screen was still on the communication interface.

It seemed that the call just now had accidentally been made by her face.

Although he was reluctant to disturb this peaceful and beautiful scene, he still had to take her home.

The journey from Drunken Star River to Yuelan Bay is not too far.

When Qu Tong groggily awoke, she found herself on Si Yuting’s back.

Despite the slight swaying, his steps were steady.

Qu Tong wrapped her arms around Si Yuting’s neck, and suddenly, her nose felt a little sour.

Si Yuting was really nice, and his back was warm.

"Awake?" came his deep and pleasant voice, causing a slight vibration on his back.

Qu Tong did not respond.

After a long silence, Si Yuting sighed almost imperceptibly, "Do you really like me that much?"

Qu Tong still did not answer, her face resting on Si Yuting’s shoulder unmoving.

But Si Yuting knew that Qu Tong was awake.

"Why?"

"You’re handsome, have a good personality, and also have money. It’s hard not to like you," Qu Tong admitted frankly, her voice still a bit hoarse.

Si Yuting was startled, then couldn’t help but laugh.

"But it seems like you really like children, and my Fertility Value has dropped to zero."

He did not feel as calm as he spoke those words now as he had before.

He had never worried about his Fertility Value, but he never expected that one day it would make him feel so helpless.

Qu Tong looked up and denied, "I don’t like them, I just don’t dislike them,"

"When they’re behaving, they’re treasures. Occasionally, when they’re interesting, they cry and scream like little devils, but which treasure doesn’t cry?"

Stopping for a moment, Qu Tong expressed seriously, "I don’t have the patience."

"Even if it’s impossible for you to have your own children for the rest of your life, do you still want to be with me?" Si Yuting asked with great detail, as if he wanted Qu Tong to give up knowing the difficulty.

Qu Tong turned her head, seemingly perplexed, "But I knew from the start that your Fertility Value was zero."

Si Yuting’s heart shook, like fireworks exploding in his chest, causing his blood to surge.

His normally steady pace hesitated for a moment before continuing.

Time passed, so long that Qu Tong was almost asleep again.

A soft "okay" finally drifted into the silent night.

Many people go to the battlefield and leave affairs of the heart behind, he was no exception. His family status gave him even more reason to do so.

So in his mind, it was quite acceptable not to marry.

It was just this unexpected intrusion...

Si Yuting stopped Butler Chi from making a sound in advance and carried the person to her room.

He tucked her in, and casually placed the large white goose beside her.

He then stood up and returned to his own room.

He couldn’t sleep next to her now.

*

Bright sunlight filtered through the curtains, brightening the room.

Qu Tong sat up in bed, frowned, and stretched her hand to rub her groggy head.

Her gaze swept around the environment; her mind still couldn’t quite catch up. How did she get back?

She turned on her Light Brain to check.

What’s going on?

Her Light Brain had exploded!

A sea of red unread messages.

After reading a couple of private messages, Qu Tong accessed the Star Network, and seeing the rampant rumors flying around, she felt numb.

She seldom drank so much because she’d blackout.

Speechless. It was one thing to sing, but she’d even started a live stream on the Star Network.

Lucky her fans who felt sorry for her.

Now the whole Star Network knew she was heartbroken and had drunken away the night.

Could the situation get any more absurd?

Of course, it could; never underestimate the imagination of netizens.

Qu Tong’s forehead throbbed; she couldn’t continue scrolling through the Star Network.

Was it still possible to move to another country and start over?

She didn’t like those sentimental songs; it was just that she’d heard them a lot on a certain cloud before, and they happened to sound good, nothing more.

And who said she was crying from heartbreak?

Pure fabrication!

All she showed was her hand and the piano. Her voice was a bit hoarse because she’d drunk too much.

Shengsheng once told her that after getting drunk, she’d hugged her dog and sang all night. Qu Tong didn’t believe it; there were no cameras at her place.

Now, it seemed, there might indeed be such a possibility.

Thankfully, Drunken Star River didn’t have dogs.

The great musical composition of the lamenting prairie!

Damn it, never drinking that much again!!!

Qu Tong hammered the pillow with shameful anger, blaming Si Yuting for all of it.

It was at this time the Empress’s communication came through.

Qu Tong quickly composed herself and answered.

Now she didn’t even know what to call her, so she just dryly said "hello".

From the other end of the line came the Empress’s gentle voice.

"Tongtong, are you feeling a bit better now?"

"Mm," said Qu Tong obediently.

Even if Si Yuting wanted a divorce, it didn’t change that she’d always liked the wonderful Empress Dowager.

"Tongtong, have you and Yuting settled things?"

The Empress had deliberately inquired. Last night it had been Yuting who picked up Tongtong, and today he went to the Military Science Academy very late, so she assumed the two had talked it over.

Qu Tong felt there was nothing much to discuss with Si Yuting; if Si Yuting wanted a divorce, could she disagree?

"We’ve settled it. His Highness said he’s willing to split half of his properties with me."

Upon hearing this, the Empress sighed ruefully and said, "If you’ve decided, Tongtong, I naturally respect your choice."

The Empress’s tone shifted as she continued:

"Regardless, Mother likes you very much, and if you’re willing, even after you divorce Yuting, I’d like to take you as my goddaughter. You should still come to the palace often to visit."

"Thank you, Mother," Qu Tong responded, warmed by the Empress’s attitude.

Afterwards, the Empress, without feeling that Si Yuting giving half of his properties to Qu Tong was too much, or trying to dissuade Qu Tong from the divorce, instead offered more consolation. She asked if Qu Tong wanted to go out to clear her mind and even recommended several newly developed tourist stars to her.

No sooner had the Empress ended the communication than she burst out cursing:

"This unfilial son! Bringing up divorce again, when he’s about to lose such a good girl like Tongtong, let him regret it. Let’s see if I’ll help him this time."
