Chapter 16: The Surprised Meng Ke

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Outside the apartment door, Meng Ke clenched the keys. Her expression became increasingly complicated as if the key was pointing not to the door of her home but to a new life.

She, who had always been resolute, started to hesitate. Next, she should be bringing out the divorce papers with enough confidence so as to force Qin Feng to sign them. Although he was a scumbag, she did not wish to see him in court.

As long as this step was taken, Qin Feng would stay away from this home forever. But…

What about Nannan?

The little girl was going to cry sadly. As she thought about this, Meng Ke truly had no idea how to explain everything to Nannan. She just could not help but feel her heart ache when she thought of Nannan’s tears.

“Qin Feng, you scumbag, you are such a terrible person. Why can’t you just stand on your feet? I can tolerate you being distressed and giving up on yourself, but you can’t always be like that. You have to give me some hope. I have to see some hope, even if it is just a tiny one!

“But after such a long time, you have never given me any hope. I… I can’t do anything else!”

Meng Ke mumbled to herself as tears streamed down her cheeks. She never expected that the man she had loved most in her life, with whom she had been through so much, was giving her despair instead.

She had to get divorced, right now!

She gained back her resolution, gritted her teeth, and opened the door, only to see Qin Feng seated on the sofa. She was about to ask him to have a private conversation with her.

She opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

“Mommy!” Nannan caught sight of Meng Ke. Holding a building block set, her face was flushed with excitement. “Look what Daddy got me! These are my favorite building blocks of Pleasant Goat!”

The little girl was like a cheerful bird who kept chirping happy words. But Meng Ke did not take in any of that. Instead, her attention was fully on Qin Feng.

From what she remembered, before Qin Feng left the apartment, he was dressed in a worn-out T-shirt. But now, he was in a set of casual sportswear, which was apparently newly bought. Although not expensive, they looked fresh and clean.

What surprised her above all was his face. He was clean-shaved and the pair of tired eyes was filled with vitality.

“How… is this possible?” Meng Ke was increasingly surprised. She rubbed her eyes and could not believe what was happening in front of her. Could this man really be Qin Feng?

“Where did you get the money for all of these?” Meng Ke could not help but ask. Everything seemed incredible, and she felt like she was in a dream.

At the same time, she was worried too. After receiving so many setbacks, she not only lost hope but also her trust in this man.

Meng Ke was aware that when Qin Feng left home, he did not have a single penny on him. His new clothes and the set of building blocks should at least cost 300 yuan. How did Qin Feng manage to make so much money in such a short time? He could not have done any part-time work with hourly payment either.

As she thought about this, her cheerful heart was disturbed again. She would very much like to trust Qin Feng, but she just could not find any excuse to do so.

“Ke, don’t worry. I made every penny legally,” Qin Feng could tell that Meng Ke was suspecting him, so he explained to her instantly. He did not have the intention of causing any more misunderstandings between them..
