Can We Say No to Divorce?

Chapter 837 - 587: Extra Story: Little Fool

Zhuo Yufeng stared at Qiao Xiaoyan amidst the storm; despite her frail appearance, she had an inner strength that was irresistibly appealing.

"If Nian Enxi really has issues, what will you do?" Zhuo Yufeng sighed.

Qiao Xiaoyan was quite composed, "If Nian Enxi truly has a problem, her goal is clear—it’s aimed at him. He won’t bear to deal with it because she resembles Song Chenxi too much. He might rather die at Nian Enxi’s hands than harm her!"

Zhuo Yufeng listened quietly as Qiao Xiaoyan continued.

"Life and death are destined, wealth is determined by fate." Qiao Xiaoyan, too, was quite philosophical, "Let it be!"

Zhuo Yufeng pressed urgently, "Xiaoyan, this is the time you need to help him! If you don’t help him, he might really die!"

"I can’t help him!" Qiao Xiaoyan chuckled, "I truly can’t redeem him, I can’t even redeem myself..."

Her laughter, however, appeared infinitely desolate to Zhuo Yufeng.

He reached out and embraced her, unsure of how to bring happiness to these two suffering souls. As a friend, he desperately hoped they would find happiness, but it always seemed to slip through their fingers.

Instead, Qiao Xiaoyan comforted him, "Alright, I’m not that fragile, don’t be like this!"

Zhuo Yufeng nodded, "Let’s go, I’ll take you home first!"

"This is my home!" Qiao Xiaoyan smiled, "Since when did you become so motherly? If you like Xiaoxiao, you need to act quickly! Otherwise, there are plenty of young men at the police station, and if Xiaoxiao is snatched away, don’t cry then!"

Zhuo Yufeng felt a bit embarrassed, "We’ll see!"

"Alright, I’m heading back!" Qiao Xiaoyan said, "You should go get tested too!"

Zhuo Yufeng watched her leave, suddenly calling out to her: "Xiaoyan, you know you fainted in the orchard, it was him who stayed by your side all night at the hospital. Perhaps he hasn’t realized your importance to him, he’s subconsciously resisting liking another woman. Give him some time, and give yourself a chance. If he can get through this crisis, he’ll definitely awaken to something. Think carefully about what I’ve said..."

Qiao Xiaoyan didn’t turn back, entering the elevator and returning home.

That night, she deliberately lured Song Xuyao to her home, adding sleeping pills to the tea; the brothers all said he had a short temper, but she felt there was a reason.

Indeed...

How could she fear thunder and lightning?

She was not afraid at all!

It was just a lame excuse she used to keep him!

But his heart always seemed to be with Nian Enxi!

There, just there!

After all, she did not covet his love!

...

Early the next morning.

Before dawn, Song Xuyao woke up in the car, rubbing his eyes; how did he fall asleep here? It was still in Qiao Xiaoyan’s community!

He suddenly remembered he was supposed to see Nian Enxi.

At this moment, Song Xuyao started the car and drove to Nian Enxi’s place.

He knocked on the door and saw Nian Enxi with eyes swollen from crying; upon seeing him, she rushed over, sobbing.

"Xuyao, why are you only coming now?" Nian Enxi cried continuously, "Last night I was so scared, I was afraid of being struck by lightning. They say it’s ugly to die from being struck, I was scared I’d be ugly..."

Song Xuyao looked at her, "There was something last night, but it’s sunny now, don’t cry!"

"Then you’ll stay with me today!" Nian Enxi bargained, clinging tightly to him.

Song Xuyao gazed at her, "I’ll call the police team first to see if there’s anything happening?"

"Mmm..." Nian Enxi stayed snugly in his embrace.

Song Xuyao called back, only to be scolded by the chief for his absence during working hours.

Nian Enxi listened near his phone, hearing the chief yelling, she could only say: "Why not just quit the job, okay?"

Song Xuyao stood up, "It’s daylight now, you take a rest, I will go check it out!"

"Will you keep me company after work?" Nian Enxi asked immediately.

"Okay!" Song Xuyao drove out, heading to find Qiao Xiaoyan before returning to the police station.

She had just come out of the dissection room, her face slightly pale, merely glancing at him calmly.

"Let’s talk!" Song Xuyao entered her office.

Qiao Xiaoyan came in, closing the door, sitting back on her chair, looking at the towering man with an accusing posture: "What do you want to talk about?"

Song Xuyao scrutinized her, eyes sharpened unusually, "Why did you set me up last night?"

He fell asleep upon getting into the car, which was no coincidence. He was with her all night, who else could it be?

Qiao Xiaoyan nonchalantly glanced at him; being a policeman, he could naturally observe the anomalies of last night. However, he wouldn’t realize the most unusual person was Nian Enxi!

"I wanted you to stay with me!" she said naturally.

Her words made Song Xuyao find it a bit interesting!

"I know you aren’t that kind of person!" Song Xuyao shook his head, "Your heart belongs to someone else, why would you need me?"

In her heart, it was always the deceased Bai Ye, how could there be a place for him?

Regarding this matter, Song Xuyao was quite self-aware.

His reluctance to talk about love didn’t mean he didn’t understand it.

Qiao Xiaoyan walked up to him at this moment, looking up at him: "I can be vulnerable too, especially when there are thunderstorms. External environmental factors like these make me yearn for a shoulder to lean on. You know, women are very good at little calculations!"

She was definitely skilled; she had put sleeping pills in his tea, and he drank it without noticing.

"When you were about to accompany Nian Enxi, do you know what I was thinking? Even if no one else knows about our relationship, you know, I know, heaven and earth know. Women are most skilled at jealousy, even without emotions, but I need you!" Qiao Xiaoyan explained unhurriedly, as if she were calmly explaining a corpse to him.

"Therefore, I calculated the time when you’d be affected, which was when you got into the car." Qiao Xiaoyan gazed at him, "For this reason, I deliberately went downstairs to buy feminine products, just to delay time and make you fall asleep as soon as you started the car."

Song Xuyao had been plotted against before, and she was technically his true bedpartner, but being schemed against by her was not something pleasant.

He stared at the woman within his reach, as she recounted last night’s events as if narrating someone else’s story.

"Qiao Xiaoyan, do you know that I utterly despise being schemed against!" Song Xuyao couldn’t control his anger.

Qiao Xiaoyan smiled softly, "What’s there to hate? You don’t love me! Without love, where would hate come from?"

Exactly! Song Xuyao was taken aback, without love, where would hate arise?

Why was he reacting so strongly?

But when he saw the mocking smile on her face, he angrily pushed her.

She was pushed onto her desk, her hands supporting the desk, and her body involuntarily leaned back.

And Song Xuyao towering over her, his eyes exceptionally sharp, he did not love her!

How could he possibly love her?

"Qiao Xiaoyan, you know our relationship is nothing more than entangled bodies, what do you want from me? Hmm..." His last word was somewhat suggestive.

Qiao Xiaoyan’s face turned a little red, just the two of them alone, what else could they do?

"What? You don’t want to end this kind of relationship?" Song Xuyao asked as he looked at her blushing face, pressing closer step by step.

Qiao Xiaoyan turned her head, ignoring him!

He looked down at her in her white business suit, a short-sleeved white blouse, and knee-length white skirt. Although she was thin, her figure was still nice, the places that should be big weren’t small.

Song Xuyao knew that her legs were fair and tender, so very captivating.

His large hand caressed her calf, smooth and soft.

"What are you doing?" Qiao Xiaoyan was startled.

"Doing what we didn’t do last night!" Song Xuyao said softly.

"No!" Qiao Xiaoyan didn’t want to engage with him again. He was going to be with another woman, was she supposed to just lower herself and be with him again, what was that?

Song Xuyao looked at her dominantly, "Last night you didn’t say no! Xiaoyan, since you schemed against me, wanting to retreat unscathed, how could it be possible?"

Qiao Xiaoyan opened her small mouth several times, not knowing what to say!

If she directly said Nian Enxi was a problem, how would he believe her? She was a forensic doctor, he was a police officer, without evidence, not to mention him, even she wouldn’t believe it.

If she spoke now, Zhuo Yufeng’s well-laid plan would be ruined by Song Xuyao, wouldn’t it all be in vain?

Her small mouth opened several times, and she eventually said nothing.

And this man’s large hands became increasingly undisciplined!

Her small hand gripped his wrist, "Don’t..."

She never refused him! He knew this, and he also knew that in this aspect, she was very open!

"Don’t be so hypocritical!" he straightly mocked.

Perhaps because it was in her office, this was her workplace, she always thought this was the most sacred place, not to be tarnished by anyone, how could he... bully her here?

Qiao Xiaoyan panicked, he had never forced her, their peace was maintained by a natural tacit understanding. Whenever she wanted, he gave it, when she didn’t, he never forced.

But at this moment, what was he doing to her?

Song Xuyao felt her change, and whispered in her ear: "Xiaoyan, you’re nervous!"

Qiao Xiaoyan flushed with shame, she reached out to pound on his shoulders, but she couldn’t stop his approach.

She was truly afraid, hurriedly saying: "Tonight, would tonight be okay?"

"What tonight?" the man asked knowingly.

Qiao Xiaoyan bit her teeth, determined in heart, "Tonight I’ll go to your house..."
