"Qin Jie, you're such a buzzkill. So what if I kissed Qing-ge? Do you really need to make such a big deal out of it?"
"And what if I'm your wife? Just because we're married, does that mean you can restrict my personal freedom? I've had enough of you, I'm divorcing you!"
This exchange happened in an extravagant room in Di Hao.
Qin Jie glances coldly at his wife, Wu Meitong, who at the moment is helping a man with a swollen lip.
This man is Wu Meitong's former high school classmate, Du Tianqing.
In high school, Du Tianqing and Wu Meitong had an affair.
Qin Jie found a message on his wife's phone where Du Tianqing invited her to meet, and he seized the opportunity to rush over immediately.
Unfortunately, he arrived just in time to witness them kissing.
Their old classmates that were in the room turned their attention to them and began to jeer.
Unable to tolerate this any longer, Qin Jie steps forward and shoots out his fist toward Du Tianqing.
Wu Meitong shockingly retorts with her desire for divorce.
Qin Jie's forehead vein begins to throb with anger as he stares furiously at Wu Meitong.
"So, your personal freedom is to go around kissing other men after our marriage? If I hadn't rushed over, what would've happened next? Would you have provided a live show right here?"
Wu Meitong's face immediately darkens at his words, and she angrily swings her arm to slap Qin Jie.
"Qin Jie, are you out of your mind? Spouting all sorts of nonsense. I can't even stand to be around you for a second with your petty mind. Leave immediately! As soon as we return, I'm divorcing you!"
Qin Jie grabbed her arm, his expression icy cold.
"Of course, we should divorce. I've been made a laughing stock, do you think I want to stay with a wretch like you? Seeing you now even disgusts me!"
After finishing his words, he forcefully shoved Wu Meitong away.
If it wasn’t for a classmate helping her, Wu Meitong would have certainly fallen to the ground.
"Qin Jie, you dare to push me?"
Wu Meitong widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
Previously, Qin Jie would be completely submissive to her.
Just because she and Du Tianqing shared a kiss today, he dare to lay hands on her?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she made an attempt to pounce on Qin Jie.
Her friends hurriedly restrained her, giving Qin Jie angry glares.
"You, as a grown man, how can you assault a woman? Just over a kiss? You're so old-fashioned!"
"Meitong and Tianqing were a couple back in high school. In today’s reunion party, weren’t they just reminiscing the old times?"
"Exactly, you poverty-stricken nobody, how dare you hit Meitong? Where do you get the audacity from?"
...
Du Tianqing wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, glaring angrily at Qin Jie.
"Qin Jie, you can only earn three to four thousand a month. Meitong has suffered so much with you. Today, all we did was reminiscing the past and I simply couldn't help myself. How could you lay a hand on her? Are you even a man?"
Having said that, he immediately turned his head and kneeled on one knee before Wu Meitong.
"Meitong, I didn't appreciate you back then. I can't stand to see you being with such a poor and violent man. Leave him and marry me instead!"
"Wow!"
The surrounding people immediately issued exaggerated exclamations.
"Brother Du is so romantic, Meitong, you should accept him!"
"Yes, Brother Du is now a manager in the company, with an annual salary of several hundred thousand. If you're with him, you won't have to suffer anymore."
"Yes, you guys used to be our class's model couple. It would be an amazing story if you two got back together."
Qin Jie looked at these people coldly.
Birds of a feather flock together.
This saying was undoubtedly true.
The group of people Wu Meitong interacted with had no moral bottom line.
They knew Wu Meitong was married, yet they encouraged her to kiss Du Tianqing and marry him.
An amazing story? I think it's more of a joke!
"Wu Meitong, if you want to divorce, do it quickly. After the divorce, I couldn't care less if you share your bed with a dog. Just don't irritate me with your sight now!" Qin Jie's voice was ice-cold.
His feelings towards Wu Meitong were not deep.
But after all, he did marry her, and he believes he's been fair to Wu Meitong. They might not be lovey-dovey, but they respected each other.
Now that Wu Meitong cheated on him, he couldn't stand her audacity anymore. This marriage had come to an end.
Wu Meitong snorted and took off the ring on her hand, throwing it at Qin Jie.
"I will divorce now. My career is booming more and more, and you are still stagnant. I can't even see any hope with a person like you!"
With that, she looked tenderly at Du Tianqing.
"Tianqing, I accept your proposal."
A big smile immediately appeared on Du Tianqing's face.
"Meitong, thank you! I will always be good to you."
The crowd around them started to stir up. Du Tianqing wanted to step forward and embrace Wu Meitong.
Qin Jie, with a sullen face, kicked him away.
"Wait until I get the divorce certificate. Then you can hold her as long as you want, but if you touch her now, I'll chop off your hand!"
Du Tianqing frowned but withdrew his hand.
After all, being a poor man like Qin Jie, he was willing to risk his life.
But he was not willing, his money had not been spent yet.
Wu Mei Tong was extremely angry, "Qin Jie, your possessiveness is too strong. We need to get a divorce now!"
"Possessiveness?" Qin Jie gave a cold laugh, "You think too highly of yourself. Even if I had a dog, I wouldn't let just anyone touch it."
"You!"
"Let it be, Mei Tong. Divorce is the priority." Du Tianqing advised.
Wu Mei Tong fiercely glared at Qin Jie and gave a heavy huff.
Qin Jie also didn't want to waste time. The two of them grabbed their marriage certificate and other relevant documents and headed straight for the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Since both of them strongly demanded a divorce.
Added with some processing from Du Tianqing.
Not much later, the couple successfully got their divorce documents.
Du Tianqing, without waiting, held Wu Mei Tong in his arms, forcefully kissed her lips in front of Qin Jie.
"Qin Jie, now you can't stop me. I tell you, from now on, Mei Tong is my woman. If you dare to mess with her, I'll show you!"
Wu Mei Tong nestled in Du Tianqing arms.
"Qin Jie, this is your own doing. Look at your situation, it's already good enough that you could get a wife. After leaving me, you'd better stay a bachelor for the rest of your life."
Qin Jie gave them both a dismissive look, not saying much, and turned to leave.
In his view, there was nothing worth discussing with this type of people whose moral compass was off.
"By the way, Qin Jie, I'm going to arrange the wedding with Meitong as soon as possible. Make sure you come,"
The voice of Du Tianqing came from behind, and Qin Jie's face darkened a few degrees.
After all, she was once his woman. Upon hearing this, it was impossible for his heart not to ripple.
"He's mute since the divorce, isn't he?"
Wu Meitong was not satisfied with Qin Jie's reaction and gave him a push on his back.
Being unprepared, Qin Jie stumbled forward.
At this moment, a small car seemed to consciously calculate the timing, and came speeding over.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, Qin Jie flew out like a deflated balloon, hitting the back of his head on the ground.
Blood instantly stained the ground.
Seeing this, Wu Meitong immediately panicked.
"Tianqing, what should we do? I didn't know a car was coming."
Du Tianqing soothingly patted her back.
"No worries. Your hit wasn't strong, and he was hit when he moved forward after steadying himself. He was just absent-minded. We don't need to worry about this. Let's go; the police will handle it later."
Wu Meitong breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her movements were subtle and probably haven't been noticed.
"Alright, let's go."
...
Qin Jie lay on the ground, feeling a numbing pain in all his internal organs.
He was unable to utter a word.
What he didn't realize was,
After being soaked in his blood, the jade amulet on his chest cracked open.
A faint light raced into his forehead.
"I am the ancestor of the Qin family, forefather to its descendants. With my Daoist methods, I pass on to you the lineage, 'The Marvelous Records of the Medicine King,' to save the world with medical skills, save yourself, and save others..."
