n*Cough *Cough

nAfter a long while, Qingfeng finally woke up from coughing. He slightly opened his eyes.

nHe was still feeling very weak even after anesthetics since he lost a lot of blood.

n

"Hey, are you awake?

"

nXue Lin seemed relieved while rubbing her eyes.

nYeah. Qingfeng nodded his head. He didn’t know what to say in front of his wife again.

nEverything happened so fast. They were supposed to get divorced, yet they encountered assassination on their way and now they returned home. What an unlucky day.

n

"I made some ginseng broth for you, give me a second.

"

nXue Lin didn’t know what to say to Qingfeng as she ran to get the ginseng broth from the kitchen

nWhat the heck?

nThis is ginseng?

nQingfeng was so suspicious about the black ginseng in the bowl, feeling that his understanding of the world had collapsed.

nIsn’t ginseng supposed to be yellow or white?

nWhat the f*ck is this black carbon strip?

n

"Umm, so…sorry, I burnt it.

"

nXue Lin lowered her head ashamedly and wanted to hide into a hole at the moment.

nIt was her first time cooking ginseng. She didn’t put enough water and she fell asleep while the ginseng was boiling. That’s why it was burnt.

nBurnt?

nQingfeng rolled his eyes and didn’t know how to react to her.

nHow could you burn such an expensive ingredient? Are you stupid?

n

"Am I…stupid?

"

nXue Lin looked at Qingfeng, asking shyly.

n

"Yes, you are.

"

nQingfeng didn’t know what else to say and directly gave her a

"stupid

" tag.

nThe word

"stupid

" was not enough to describe her already, she deserved the word

"uneducated.

"

nStaring at the black ginseng as black as charcoal, Qingfeng didn’t think he could swallow it.

nDivorce.

nHe suddenly remembered it was the day to get divorced today. He couldn’t stand staying at her house for free and doing nothing anymore.

n

"Well, I’m awake now. Let’s get divorced then.

"

nQingfeng frowned his brows and said.

n

"What did you say?

"

nXue Lin didn’t hear what he said since she was still feeling guilty about her ginseng.

n

"I said, let’s get divorced now.

"

nHe repeated it again.

n

"Divorce?

"

nXue Lin suddenly shivered and a complicated expression appeared on her cold face.

nThis man asked for divorce now, isn’t this what she wanted.

nShe promised to divorce this man in three months when they were doing paperwork in the Civil Service two days ago.

nShe knew she broke his heart when she kept him out of the house since she jumped to her assumptions when he went to the spa. Therefore, she agreed immediately when this man said he wanted to divorce.

nBut why did she suddenly feel so heartbroken when this man brought this out again?

n

"It hurts, it hurts so much.

"

nXue Lin felt like her heart was tearing apart.

nShe knew she didn’t want to leave this man now.

nShe was touched the moment when this man took a bullet for her. She realized she was the one that was being fussy and was always misunderstanding him many times after their marriage.

nBesides her misunderstanding him, the reason why this man wanted to divorce her might also be because she was too dumb.

nHow could a wife not even know how to boiling ginseng, it’s not much harder than boiling water.

nWhy would he want such a stupid wife?

n

"Are you going to divorce me because I’m too stupid to boil water properly?

"

nXue Lin asked sadly with her pale face.

n

"Didn’t you want to divorce me? Didn’t you say it’s good for both of us to get divorced earlier?

"

nQingfeng asked confusingly when he saw Xue Lin was being sad.

n

"Aren’t you supposed to be happy that I finally brought out what you wanted? Why do you look so sad?

"

n

"So you are not divorcing me because I’m stupid?

"

n

"Of course not.

"

n

"Alright.

"

nXue Lin smiled like a blooming flower when she got her answer, which surprised Qingfeng.

nHe realized her wife looked so pretty when she smiled.

nThere were two requirements if they wanted to divorce. First, it had to be both parties agreeing to divorce for a broken relationship. Second, one party may file a divorce arbitration in the court if both parties have been separated for more than two years.

nIn addition, they had to bring their marriage certificate, residence booklet and their ID cards with them for the paperwork.

nXue Lin had decided. She wouldn’t divorce this man nor separate with this man.

nShe planned to hide her marriage certificate and said that she had lost it somewhere so that they wouldn’t be able to divorce.

n

"You’re so injured right now. Eat the ginseng first. We’ll talk about the divorce later when you recover.

"

nXue Lin pushed up her lips and handed the ginseng to Qingfeng again.

nXue Lin suddenly turned back to a cold woman when she had made her decision.

nAlthough the ginseng was burnt, Qingfeng had to finish it since it was Xue Lin’s first time to cook for a guy.

n

"Ice Queen?

"

nQingfeng shut his mouth when facing this indifferent woman that radiated a cold feeling.

nHe couldn’t believe this woman could actually switch from the guilty bear just now to a cold queen right away.

nInvincible, indifferent and arrogant were the best descriptions for Xue Lin while she was in her natural state.

nQingfeng held his gut and ate the burnt ginseng for his wound while being shocked by this vicious queen's transformation.

n

"This ginseng was... freaking disgusting.

"

nQingfeng swore to god that this ginseng was the worst thing he’d ever had in his life so far. This cold wife was such a

"brilliant

" chef.

nHowever, the ginseng seemed to work even though it tasted terrible.

nQingfeng felt his body start to warm up right after he finished the ginseng. His wound hurt less and his face started to recover some color. He didn’t even feel dizzy any more.

nHe could even stand up now. Undoubtedly, he could gain all his energy back in one day with this recovering speed.

n*Bell Ringing

nSomebody was calling Xue Lin. She picked up the phone after she found out it was Wanqiu calling.

n

"Director Xia, what’s wrong?

"

n

"Boss, the Chen Corporation has come and they wanted to discuss a $30,000,000 deal with us.

"

n

"I remember you are the one in charge of this case, right? You can take this over.

"

n

"But boss, they told us they have to discuss it with you. Otherwise, they

nwill go for another company.

"

n

"Okay, I’m coming.

"

nXue Lin hung up the phone coldly.

n

"Rest at home, Director Xia has called me and I need to go to the company now.

"

nXue Lin said with a flash of guilt in her eyes and left the house right away.

nHonestly, she was planning to take care of Qingfeng at home, but she had

nno choice since she had to show up for this big case.

n

"Did my cold wife just tell me where she is going?

"

nQingfeng was shocked while seeing Xue Lin was leaving.

nIn the past, Xue Lin always ignored him and would never let him know where she would be going even if she was going to the company.

nIt was the first time she told him where she was leaving for. What a miracle!
