Chapter 223 - 200 Regret
After being together with Qin Mobei for so long, he had never even said a single important sentence to her. She once thought she was the happiest woman in the world.
But now?
Just for a mere five million, he wants to force her to cut ties with her own family? Is that what he means?
Before, Chen Yueyue thought that it was her family who was being unreasonable, but at this moment, a single thought dominated her mind.
Qin Mobei, he didn’t love her anymore!
With tearful eyes, Chen Yueyue looked at Qin Mobei, “Just for such a trivial matter, you don’t want me anymore, you don’t want our child anymore, is that right?”
Qin Mobei, who had briefly regained some clarity, was drawn back into the rhythm of being in love the moment he saw Chen Yueyue like this.
He showed a pained expression, “It’s not that I don’t want you. Your family keeps pushing me to give in, I’m only human, don’t I have a say in this?”
Chen Yueyue stubbornly said, “You just don’t love me enough. If you really loved me, how could you care about these things?”
In that instant, she suddenly remembered Ye Bolin.
Her family had always been this way for not just a day or two.
All these years before, it had been the same.
But.
Ye Bolin had managed everything so well, she never heard a single complaint about him from her parents.
Even when they were breaking off the engagement, her parents were really reluctant to let Ye Bolin go.
Only after things became completely unmanageable did her parents accept the reality.
Before, Qin Mobei would take care of her family too, all for her sake.
But how long had it been before he showed his true colors?
Ye Bolin had taken care of them for so many years without ever having so many complaints!
“Enough love for you? Haven’t I loved you enough?” Qin Mobei gritted his teeth, the sight of Chen Yueyue’s entitled demeanor brought a deep sense of weariness from the depths of his soul.
Of course, he truly liked Chen Yueyue; otherwise, he wouldn’t have done so much for her.
Even when his company fell into hardship, he never blamed Chen Yueyue.
But what about Chen Yueyue?
Couldn’t she do even a little something for him?
At least, take his side once when he had conflicts with her family.
“Qin Mobei, you’ve really let me down,” Chen Yueyue said, her eyes brimming with tears.
Qin Mobei’s expression also turned cold, “I believe I have done all that honor and duty require of me.”
The two of them actually started arguing as if no one else was there.
The guests were all too happy to watch the drama unfold.
Unable to bear it any longer, Chen Feng interjected, “Enough, just give me the five million, and from now on, you don’t have to worry about the affairs of the Chen family.”
Chen Feng made his stance clear.
He had no desire to watch these two argue back and forth.
Getting the money was what mattered most; as for what might happen later, who could say?
“Fine,” Qin Mobei scoffed coldly, actually having someone bring over the five million.
Then, he threw a pile of cash right in front of Chen Feng.
Chen Feng wasn’t going to fuss over the details, grabbing his wife and starting to pick up the money.
Watching them, Chen Yueyue’s tears surged even more.
Qin Mobei…
He was actually humiliating her family like this! Was this the good husband she had in her heart?
After Chen Feng and Guan Ya picked up the money, they couldn’t be bothered to stay any longer and made a beeline for the hotel exit.
Chen Yueyue watched their retreating figures with a sorrowful face.
“If you want to follow them, you can go too,” Qin Mobei couldn’t help but say with a tinge of sarcasm. “But by the looks of it, they’ve already sold you to me for that five million! Even if you caught up with them, they might not even want you as their daughter anymore.”
Chen Yueyue’s back stiffened, and she said no more.
She didn’t know how things had turned out this way.
She only knew one thing.
Her wedding, the most important day of her life, was completely ruined.
For some reason, Chen Yueyue turned to look at Ye Bolin.
Finding herself in such a plight, Ye Bolin must be gloating, right?
But.
Ye Bolin wasn’t even looking at her; he was concentrating on peeling shrimp for Ye Xiao. The other members of the Ye Family were also busy, their eyes seemingly only for their daughter Ye Xiao, taking care of her meticulously.
Chen Yueyue felt disoriented for a moment.
She and Ye Bolin had long been engaged.
When she used to visit the Ye Family, she was treated in the same way.
If she hadn’t made that mistake, if she were still with Ye Bolin, he would probably be peeling shrimp for her right now.
For the first time, Chen Yueyue felt a tinge of regret.
Was her choice really the right one?
Suddenly, the baby in her stomach moved.
Chen Yueyue looked down and gently touched her belly where the child lay.
This child was very strong.
A lot had happened recently, but he had always stayed quietly in her belly, and the doctor said the fetus was very healthy.
This was a gift from heaven.
And she was already past the point of no return.
The wedding banquet of Qin Mobei and Chen Yueyue was halfway through.
Suddenly, Qin Mobei received a phone call.
His face immediately darkened.
He looked sharply towards Ye Bolin.
Ye Bolin gave a slight smile to him and then raised his glass.
His lips moved slightly.
Qin Mobei barely made out his voice.
“President Qin, this is your belated wedding gift!”
Afterward.
The Ye Family left the scene indifferently.
Qin Mobei’s expression grew uglier as he gripped his phone tightly.
A wedding gift, what wedding gift!
He had just received news that the resort project the Qin Family had been pushing forward had now been snatched away by the Ye Family. He had invested a lot in this project and had been counting on it for a comeback.
But now, it was over, all over.
A wedding gift!
Ye Bolin had said it was a wedding gift.
Qin Mobei couldn’t help but look towards Chen Yueyue.
If he hadn’t married her, he wouldn’t have incurred Ye Bolin’s revenge, and none of this would be happening.
That day, he had been drunk, and if Chen Yueyue hadn’t deliberately seduced him, how could he have made such a mistake!
Being with Chen Yueyue, was that really the right choice?
Qin Mobei’s gaze finally rested on Chen Yueyue’s slightly protruding belly.
For the sake of this child, he could only endure.
The drama had come to a close at this point.
Qin Mobei was eager to go back and handle things, and the guests began to leave one after another.
Qin Mobei left Chen Yueyue alone in the bridal room, rushing off in a hurry to the company.
Chen Yueyue sat there alone, feeling more and more aggrieved, and couldn’t help but start to cry softly.
If it were Ye Bolin, he would surely not leave her alone on their wedding night.
After all, Ye Bolin had been utterly accommodating to her over the years.
Not like Qin Mobei.
Only a few months of pretense, and he could no longer hide his true colors.
Qin Mobei was busy at the company until late at night before returning home, only to be met with Chen Yueyue’s resentful eyes.
If it had been before, Qin Mobei would have rushed to comfort her, but now, he just felt waves of fatigue.
He went to the company to see if there was any chance to salvage the cooperation case, and for their future, for the future of their child.
But now…
He didn’t want to explain to Chen Yueyue anymore.
Let it be.
Little did Qin Mobei expect that in just a few months, the two of them would come to this conclusion.
