Chapter 1453 - I Only Want You

Chapter 1453: Great to Have You (13)
Noticing how eager she was, Xia Banqin chimed in gleefully,
Yeah, Luo Hang, you guys go get the divorce settled now. By the way, let’s go together. We can get our marriage certificate too.

Mrs. Luo interjected,
They can go now, but your and Luo Hang’s marriage can wait. You haven’t even signed the agreement yet. What’s the rush?

Xia Banqin agreed, thinking to herself that waiting another few days wouldn’t make a difference since she had already been waiting for so long.
Mu Qixing brought her luggage along with her to the Civil Administration Bureau.
Although Mrs. Luo told her that she did not have to rush, Mu Qixing insisted on doing so.
It was the first time that Mu Qixing had ever ridden in Luo Hang’s car.

It’s such a rare chance to be able to hitch a ride from you.


Are you very happy?


Are you not? You should be happier than I am, shouldn’t you? Why do you seem to be pulling a long face now? Could it be that you didn’t expect me to be happier than you?
Mu Qixing asked with a smile.
Luo Hang answered coldly,
How could that be? I can’t wait to divorce you. Why are all the women of the Mu family like this?


Like what?


Like you.


That’s not necessarily the case. Well, at least, Wu Pingyang isn’t like me. Just because you don’t like the way Cousin Wansheng and I are, it doesn’t mean that others will detest us too. Different strokes for different folks. It’s just like how I can’t understand why you even fancy Xia Banqin and stayed with her for so many years. Well, one man’s poison is another man’s treasure.

Luo Hang said,
Apart from your personal belongings, you can’t take away anything from my home. You’re to leave the marriage without a single portion of the assets either.


That’s exactly what I did. However, society is so strange nowadays. Clearly, you’re the one who was at fault and you should be the one who’s denied a portion of the matrimonial assets. I don’t get it at all. Fortunately, I can’t stand living like this. I don’t want a single cent of yours either. I married you because your family had given us five million dollars. I’d be thankful enough if you don’t ask for the sum back.


Seems like you actually have some self-awareness.


Of course I do.

They stopped talking to each other and proceeded to sign the divorce papers.
After the proceedings were settled, Mu Qixing grabbed the divorce certificate merrily and immediately flagged down a taxi. She placed her luggage in the trunk of the taxi and waved at her husband. Beaming with joy, she said,
Goodbye.

She then got inside the car and left.
Luo Hang was a little perplexed, and he was filled with an inexplicable emotion. He was feeling rather different from what he had imagined.
He had no idea where Mu Qixing was headed to.
She arrived at Lu Jingrao’s home.
Just like she had expected, he did not change the password on the lock of his door.
She hung her clothes in the closet and tidied the place before making her way to the supermarket to buy some groceries, which she then filled the refrigerator with.
She took a look at the time to see that it was 4:15 pm.
He would get off work at five o’clock.
She was well aware of his work hours.
Mu Qixing changed into a fresh set of clothes, put on some makeup, and left the house at 4:40 pm.
She hailed a taxi to the First People’s Hospital.
Mu Qixing called the Mu family while on her way to the hospital and informed her grandfather about the divorce. He was infuriated at first and asked her if she was the one who initiated the divorce. She then told him everything truthfully and claimed that it was a mutual agreement between her and Luo Hang. She also informed him that the Luo family wouldn’t be asking for the five million dollars back since they were the ones who initiated the divorce.
Hence, the elderly Mr. Mu did not say anything else and instead told her to explain everything in detail when she comes home at night.
Mu Qixing agreed.
She stepped foot into the dental clinic at 4:55 pm. She stood in front of the glass and peeked through it to see that Lu Jingrao was treating a female patient, clad in his white coat and a blue surgical mask.
Placing her hands behind her back, she tucked her hair behind her ear and continued to walk toward the door, unable to contain her happiness.
Will he be angry at me?

He probably will. After all, I haven’t met him in months.

How should I coax him?

Reminded of the text messages that he had sent, she felt much more at ease.
Wu Pingyang was present too. However, Mu Qixing did not notice her presence at all.
All she wanted now was to grasp the happiness that she deserved.
She was not bothered by the opinions of others at all.
Just as she was about to enter, Wu Pingyang exited. Upon the sight of her, Wu Pingyang immediately asked,
What brings you here?

She smiled and said,
Not you.


What are you here for, then? Are you here to see the dentist?


Like I said, I’m not here to look for you. You don’t have to question me any further.
Mu Qixing did not talk to her any further and entered the room instead.
Noticing that she was walking toward Lu Jingrao, Wu Pingyang decided not to leave and instead walked back in. What is she here for?
 she wondered.
It had never crossed her mind that Mu Qixing and Lu Jingrao would know each other personally. She thought that she was at most looking for Lu Jingrao to treat her condition.
Lu Jingrao was too focused on his work to notice Mu Qixing’s presence. A few minutes later, he finally stood up and caught sight of her when he casually turned his head around.
Surprised to see her, he removed his mask and asked,
Why are you here?

There were other interns and nurses who were still in the clinic and were watching him peform his treatment. Upon hearing his words, everyone shifted their gaze onto Mu Qixing.
A frown creased Wu Pingyang’s forehead. Do they actually know each other?

Since when?

Mu Qixing was completely unrestrained. There was nothing for her to fear since she was single and free anyway.

I’m here to see you.


I happen to be wrapping up now too.
He removed his white coat and gave his patient some instructions before leaving with Mu Qixing.
As soon as they left, one of the assistants snapped,
I remember that woman. She used to visit the clinic frequently and pester Chief. She stopped coming for a long while. Why is she here again?

Upon hearing her remark, Wu Pingyang asked in shock,
She used to pester Chief?


Yeah, we could tell that she was wooing him. Although Chief doesn’t say anything to us, he actually does seem to fancy her a lot.


She’s already married now.


She’s married?
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
Are you serious? How did you know?


She’s my half-sister. Of course I’d know.


…

Wu Pingyang was suddenly reminded of what happened at the karaoke joint that night and the questions about Mu Qixing that Lu Jingrao had asked her. Does that mean that he was asking for himself and not on behalf of his friend?

Since he’s aware that Mu Qixing is already married, why is he still contacting her?
