Chapter 669: Extra 082: Wife, I Love You (Second Update)

“What’s your scheme this time?” Xin Zaozao asked Mu Cidian.

She didn’t trust Mu Cidian.

She didn’t trust him.

Mu Cidian said, “Is it so hard to admit that I’m truly in love with you?”

Xin Zaozao pursed her lips.

Her heart was beating slightly.

“Is it so hard to acknowledge that I’m so in love with you that I would give up everything for you?”

“Is it so hard to admit that I’ll never love another woman apart from you in this lifetime?”

“Is it really that hard to admit that I genuinely desire and long to marry you?”

“Is it so difficult to acknowledge my true affections?”

Mu Cidian tirelessly questioned Xin Zaozao, one sentence after another.

Xin Zaozao was stunned by the murderer right before her.

His words were pleading, but his strong attitude didn’t make him seem vulnerable at all.

She said, “Yes, it is hard. I can’t forget all the hurt you once caused me.”

“I can’t forget either. I can’t forget how cruel I was, the unbearable things I did to you! But it doesn’t change the fact that I want to love you, that I want to devote myself to love you henceforth.”

“I won’t believe it.”

“Which is why I wrote this agreement.” Mu Cidian once again placed the divorce agreement in front of Xin Zaozao, “Tell me what you are dissatisfied with, I’ll change it! Right away!”

Xin Zaozao looked at him.

At his aggressive demeanor.

“Can’t we let each other go? Can’t we live our own lives peacefully?” Xin Zaozao articulated each word, “If we never see each other again, the past can be dispelled like smoke. But this continued torment will only hurt both of us.”

“Let each other go…” Mu Cidian’s throat tightened, “Haven’t we tried that already?”

Xin Zaozao’s heart skipped a beat.

“The result is that I fall for you every time I see you.” Mu Cidian said, clearly, “I simply cannot separate myself from you.”

“That’s you…”

“Aren’t you the same?” Mu Cidian countered.

“I’m not.” Xin Zaozao immediately denied.

“I admit that your heart is colder than I thought, you can let go easier than I can, you are stronger and more decisive than I am, you can live better without me. But Xin Zaozao, with me, you can live even better.”

With me, you can live even better.

Try it.

Please, try it again.

Mu Cidian’s eyes were a little red.

However, he was the one clearly forcing the marriage.

As it turned out, he was getting repeatedly hurt at that very moment.

Sometimes, the person who seems the strongest can actually be the weakest, the person who pretends the most can be hurt the most.

Xin Zaozao was startled by his reddened eyes.

Her heart ached incessantly.

There was some kind of feeling… an eroding feeling in her heart that couldn’t really be rubbed out, she just didn’t dare to touch it. She kept forcing herself not to touch it.

Because the hurt was too deep.

The pain was so intense that she didn’t want to try anymore.

She didn’t want to attempt it anymore.

She said, “Mu Cidian, I can’t let go of everything to be with you. I can’t forget what Wan Quan has done to me, I can’t forget my father’s death, I can’t forget when I gave my best to you and the world you gave me was shattered, I can’t forget so…”

“So. Let me help you forget.” Mu Cidian remained uncompromising.

That’s right.

He won’t back down.

He said, “The culprit should bear the task of solving the problem. Let me help you walk out of the shadow, the shadow of your life.”

“Can you?” Xin Zaozao laughed, a cold laugh. Her eyes reddened at that moment.

“Yes.” Mu Cidian grabbed her hand, clenching it tightly in his palm, “I love you, Xin Zaozao.”

Love, such a simple word.

Yet it is so difficult between two people.

Xin Zaozao just looked at Mu Cidian.

She watched his affectionate gaze, his passionate stare, and his expectant face.

The baby in her belly suddenly kicked at that moment.

It was a powerful kick.

She couldn’t help but exclaim, “Ah!”

Mu Cidian looked at her closely.

Without asking about her condition.

As if she wouldn’t be let go unless she responded to his confession.

She said, “Let me go first.”

“No.”

“The baby is kicking me.”

“The baby can’t stand it either.” Mu Cidian said.

Xin Zaozao was speechless.

“We’re going to the Civil Affairs Bureau.” Mu Cidian didn’t want to delay any longer. He picked up the agreement on the table and headed straight for Xin Zaozao’s room.

Apparently going to find the household register.

“Mu Cidian…” Xin Zaozao called him.

He wouldn’t listen.

Xin Zaozao touched her own belly.

The baby was kicking harder and harder now, and her stomach began to react.

She thought, is it time to give birth…

She gritted her teeth.

Gritted her teeth and stood up from the sofa.

She held her belly and watched Mu Cidian search the room.

“Mu Cidian… my belly hurts a bit, I might be going into labor.” Xin Zaozao said.

The man looking for the household register froze.

The next second he said, “Once I find the household register, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

“Mu Cidian!”

“Where is it?”

“Can you not be this cruel!”

“Do you want to give birth at home?” Mu Cidian threatened.

“Is this your way of loving me?” Xin Zaozao’s eyes were red, she clearly felt wronged at that moment.

“There are many ways to express love.” Mu Cidian said, “Causing you pain is one of them.”

“You bastard… Ah!” Xin Zaozao cried out.

Because her belly really started to hurt a bit.

It was obviously a sign of labor.

Mu Cidian, suppressing his urges, asked again, “Household register.”

Xin Zaozao felt that given Mu Cidian’s ruthlessness, he might really make her give birth at home.

This jerk.

She really wanted to strangle him.

She said, “In the third drawer of the wardrobe in the dressing room, in the pink file folder.”

Mu Cidian quickly rushed into the dressing room and found the household register.

After finding it, Mu Cidian…

He left the house holding Xin Zaozao as quickly as he could.

Xin Zaozao was bearing the pain.

Bearing the pain, she was placed in the sedan by Mu Cidian.

Mu Cidian was obviously driving faster than usual.

While driving, he was making a call to the hospital, “Xin Zaozao is having stomach pains, is it labor?”

“Is there any bleeding or water breaking?”

“Not yet.”

“Are the stomach pains regular?” The doctor asked.

Mu Cidian turned his head to Xin Zaozao, “The doctor is asking how are you feeling the pain?”

“It suddenly hurts.”

“Regularly?”

“It doesn’t seem to be regular.”

Mu Cidian replied to the call, “It’s not quite regular.”

“Alright, don’t panic. Usually, the first child doesn’t come out very quickly. Let her keep calm, we will prepare for delivery.”

“We’re not at the hospital now.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Where have you gone?” The doctor’s tone was obviously not good.

“We’re on the way to the hospital. I want to know, given Xin Zaozao’s conditions, how soon can she give birth?”

“We need to examine the cervix status.”

“What’s your experience, without examining?”

“Given her current condition, it may still take several hours at least. It’s really hard to estimate. It depends on the pregnant woman’s situation.”

“What about normally?”

“Normally, the first childbirth takes at least ten something hours from the beginning of labor.”

“Okay, I got it.”

“How long until you get here?” The doctor quickly asked.

“Around one hour?”

“Where did you go?!” The doctor roared on the other end of the phone.

“Getting married.”

Having that said, Mu Cidian immediately hung up.

Xin Zaozao heard him making the call.

Looking at him and where they were heading at a rather high speed, it wasn’t the direction to the hospital.

“Mu Cidian, what are you trying to do?” Xin Zaozao cried out in surprise.

“Going to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”

“Are you insane? I’m about to give birth… I’m going to give birth…” Xin Zaozao was really on the verge of breaking down.

She really wanted to beat Mu Cidian to death.

What on earth was he thinking of, not taking her to the hospital at a time like this!

“The doctor said that the first delivery from labor to birth takes more than 10 hours, we have enough time.”

“Mu Cidian, do you love me? Do you love me?” Xin Zaozao was really driven crazy by him.

“If anything happens to you and the baby, I will not live alone.” Mu Cidian assured.

“Are you out of your mind?” Xin Zaozao gritted her teeth, “Is marriage more important than life?”

“Yes, loving you is more important than life.”

Xin Zaozao’s eyes were red.

So this was what Mu Cidian described as loving her, loving her so much that he didn’t care about her physical condition.

This man, this cruel man!

Mu Cidian parked the sedan at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

He opened the car door, carrying Xin Zaozao directly into the Civil Affairs Bureau.

He pretended not to see all of Xin Zaozao’s grievances.

And pretended not to see her reluctance.

The Civil Affairs Hall.

Everyone was shocked by Mu Cidian’s appearance.

Mu Cidian urgently told the staff, “My wife is about to give birth, can we be allowed to cut in line to get married?”

“…”

Ultimately, the officials of Yanshang Country were humane.

They truly allowed them to cut in front of several couple’s lineup and start processing the marriage.

The woman handling the marriage paperwork could not help but say, “You guys are really in a rush? To come and get a licence when she’s about to give birth.”

“I am being forced.” Xin Zaozao gritted her teeth.

The woman glanced at Xin Zaozao, then at Mu Cidian.

“What she means is, she forced me. I originally didn’t want to take responsibility…” Mu Cidian said, uttering words that were asking for a beating.

“Are you still a man?!” The woman was furious, “Your wife’s stomach is so big, and you won’t take responsibility, do you even have a conscience?”

“Yes, you’re right.” Mu Cidian seemed very obedient.

After scolding Mu Cidian, the woman’s tone towards Xin Zaozao was much more pleasant, “Don’t be afraid, auntie will process your things quickly.”

“If he doesn’t want to, then forget it, I can raise the child myself …” Xin Zaozao quickly said.

At this moment, she was still occasionally having bouts of pain.

“What nonsense are you talking about, you silly girl!” The woman was a bit serious, “The child is already so big, how can we let you raise it yourself? Don’t worry, auntie’s actions are quick.”

“…” She doesn’t need her to act quickly.

The woman actually processed their paperwork super fast.

With two heavy stamps, the two of them received their marriage certificates, one for each person.

The woman wanted to say a few words of advice, but she saw Mu Cidian carrying Xin Zaozao and rushing out like a gust of wind.

Xin Zaozao was holding onto Mu Cidian’s neck.

Holding his neck…

She could actually hear his incredibly quick breathing and his violent heartbeat.

She even saw the sweat all over his forehead at that moment.

She even thought that, at that moment, Mu Cidian was actually more nervous and unsettled than her.

He put her in the car.

Mu Cidian started the car, drove quite fast.

He made a call, “We’ll be there in about 15 minutes, could you please be ready to meet us at the entrance?”

“Okay. Where have you guys gone? You tell me, why did you go to get married with a pregnant woman? Why didn’t you choose to get married earlier instead of deciding to do it during labor? Do you realize how dangerous this is? If there’s any accident, will you regret for your entire life? Ah, I’m really anxious, be careful on your way!” The doctor was nagging on the other end of the phone, probably driven mad by Mu Cidian.

“Yes, we’re on our way back now. Sorry for the inconvenience.” Mu Cidian didn’t get mad, instead he sincerely accepted the criticism.

He turned off the Bluetooth and drove the sedan carefully to the hospital.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance.

The doctors and nurses were waiting for them with a wheelchair.

Mu Cidian put Xin Zaozao on the wheelchair.

Everyone pushed Xin Zaozao towards the delivery room.

The moment she was pushed in.

Mu Cidian suddenly held Xin Zaozao’s hand.

Xin Zaozao looked at him.

Mu Cidian said, “Don’t be afraid, I’ll be waiting for you outside.”

Xin Zaozao didn’t say anything.

Actually, she was a bit nervous at that moment.

Nervous about the unknown.

Mu Cidian leaned over, gently kissing Xin Zaozao’s forehead.

He said, “Wife, I love you.””
