A dream came to Qin Se that night. This time, it wasn’t exactly a nightmare. She dreamt of herself getting married to Gu Jingyuan.
A genuine marriage with her putting on a wedding dress, and they had gotten married in the church. Then, Qin Se woke up being terrified again.
Gu Jingyuan had put it bluntly during the daytime. He lacked a wife. The result was her dreaming that she had become his wife at night. It seemed as though she was still coveting the beauty of Gu Jingyuan.
Nevertheless, it wasn’t her fault. She considered herself equipped with an inner strength made of steel. Otherwise, she would have jumped on him whenever this man showed up before her.
Qin Se shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. What the hell was she thinking about? She had only managed to marry into the well-off family of Shen because her husband dared not openly declare his sexual orientation and had used her as a cover.
Not to mention the aristocrat status of the Gu family. Not only was her family background ordinary, but she was soon to be a divorced woman too! Haha... getting married to Gu Jingyuan was nothing but a pipe dream!
Just then, Qin Se’s phone rang out of the blue. She wondered, it was two or three o’clock in the morning, who was the psycho that was calling her at this hour.
She picked up her phone and was dumbfounded when she saw the name of the caller. She felt a twitch on her nose and was overwhelmed with the urge to weep.
She put the phone next to her ear, holding back her tears as she said, “Hello, Mom...”
“Shanshan, are you wearing the amulet that I gave to you? I just had a dream! You were involved in an accident, and your head was covered in blood...” Qin Se’s mother, Zhou Ping, blurted out her thoughts urgently and swiftly. Qin Se felt that those naggings were somehow benevolent at this moment.
Qin Se was losing her control as she did her best to hold back her tears. “Yes, I know.”
She had an infant name-Shan Shan. Only her family would address her with this infant name.
Her heartache of aggression could no longer hold back after she heard her mother calling out her name.
The one who cared about her the most had always been her mother regardless of time and age!
Zhou Ping immediately knew that something must have gone wrong. “You’re crying, aren’t you? Did those dogs of the Shen family bully you again?!”
Qin Se covered her mouth and didn’t say anything, but more and more tears were flowing from her eyes.
“I told you before this. The Shen family is a whole bunch of sh*tbags, especially Shen Rui. He has a thief’s eyes and a crooked face, but you refused to listen to me. Shan Shan, our family might not be rich, but I didn’t give birth to you to let you suffer in other families. If you can no longer stand it anymore, why don’t you get a divorce from Shen Rui?”
When Qin Se had decided to get married to Shen Rui, her mother had been opposed to that idea. However, she had refused to listen to her mother’s advice. After the marriage, the Shen family had despised her and her family. Zhou Ping had come by two times previously, but they had never treated her nicely. After that, she had ceased to drop by.
Qin Se nodded violently. “Yeah, I know, Mom. I already regret it. I will definitely get a divorce...”
She wanted to get a divorce. She had to get herself a divorce.
Qin Se didn’t dare to reveal too much to Zhou Ping as she didn’t want her mother to worry for her. After hanging up the phone, she hugged the phone to her chest and cried for a long time.
Wiping off the tears from her cheeks, Qin Se ground her teeth. Shen Rui was dragging things on to refuse her the money, but she wasn’t that easy to bully.
If she couldn’t get it from Shen Rui, she would fork it out from his parents’ hands.
***
At dawn, the police station had asked for Qin Se to drop by to make a statement.
The police told her that the driver was a novice who had just received his driving license. Yesterday was his first time driving on the road all by himself. Then, he had accidentally stepped on the accelerator when he was supposed to step on the car brake.
Qin Se felt a chilly wind blowing on top of her head. He was a new driver that was driving for the first time on the road. No wonder! It was lucky for her to have Gu Jingyuan, otherwise, she would have died.
The police had canceled the license of the perpetrator, and the driver would be punished with detention as well as pay a corresponding fine.
Gu Jingyuan’s assistant saw Qin Se come out from the police station, and he checked with Gu Jingyuan, who was sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed, “Do you need to remind Miss Qin to be more alert?”
“No need.” Gu Jingyuan opened his eyes. “Not only is she timid, but she also happens to be a scaredy-cat.”
