The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 384 Make him sign the divorce papers

As the night grew cooler, Qi Yuxuan sat alone on the edge of the bed, clutching the nightgown that Qiu Ziyue had once brought him.

Looking at the embroidered mandarin duck pattern on it, he missed that gentle figure even more.

His thoughts drifted back to the past, when they always kept each other company and shared each other's joys and sorrows.

But now, all of that has vanished like a bubble.

"Twilight Sparkle, where are you?"

Qi Yuxuan murmured softly, his voice filled with helplessness and pain.

He gently pressed his nightgown against his face, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath, as if trying to capture the last trace of Qiu Ziyue's scent.

However, reality is cruel; she is no longer by his side.

The wind outside the window rustled the leaves, making the quiet night seem even more lonely.

Qi Yuxuan slowly stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the dark night sky in the distance.

The moonlight shone like water on his face, reflecting his tired and haggard expression.

Suddenly, a violent cough interrupted his thoughts.

Qi Yuxuan covered his mouth with his hand, trying to suppress the annoying symptoms, but the more he suppressed them, the worse the cough became.

He staggered back a few steps, leaned against the wall, his heart filled with longing for Qiu Ziyue.

"Twilight Sparkle, if only you were here..."

He murmured to himself, tears glistening in his eyes.

It was late at night, and Qi Yuxuan drank a bowl of herbal soup.

He thought of the time when Qiu Ziyue had tricked him by putting chili powder in his medicine.

He smiled faintly, and he finally stopped coughing, but he still couldn't fall asleep.

He knew he had to find Qiu Ziyue, no matter the cost.

Only her presence could dispel the darkness and coldness in his heart.

As the night deepened, Qiu Ziyue tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

For the past few days, she had been unable to find Grandma Cuici, and her heart was filled with doubt and unease.

Could it be that Granny Cui Ci and Old Man Xuan Xu have reconciled and left Chang'an together?

Or perhaps, Grandma Cuici has already passed away?

Various speculations swirled in her mind, leaving her completely baffled.

While racking her brains, Qiu Ziyue suddenly remembered something—whenever the Mysterious Old Man played the zither, Granny Cuici would appear.

She had heard that song before; it was called "Growing Old Together".

This is a poignant and beautiful piece of music, as if telling a story of profound emotions.

So, Qiu Ziyue decided to give it a try.

She lit a solitary lamp in the inn, gently stroked the strings of her zither, and slowly began to play "Growing Old Together".

The melodious piano music sounded especially moving in the quiet night.

For several days in a row, Qiu Ziyue insisted on playing this piece every night, but Grandma Cuici never appeared.

Just when she was about to give up, a familiar voice came from the shadows:

"Girl, what do you want with me?"

Qiu Ziyue was overjoyed and quickly stood up to bow, saying:

"Grandma, I want to know where the entrance to the treasure is?"

Granny Cui smiled slightly and said:

"The entrance to the treasure is inside the Cui Ci Mountain Cave. Go find it yourself."

Qiu Ziyue couldn't help but ask again, "Grandma, why hasn't Elder Xuanxu come to see you?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Cuici's expression flickered with a complex emotion before she slowly said:

"Some people and some things, once lost, can never be regained."

"Mother-in-law, what do you mean?"

He came to see me, but I no longer had the courage I once had. His choice back then had already meant he had let me go.

As a woman, my lifelong obsession has led to a life of loneliness and misery, which is truly not worth it.

"So you regret it?"

"Yes, I regret it. Perhaps all these years I've been clinging to this resentment. Looking back now, it was so foolish."

So, girl, go after your happiness and stop being so fixated on this.

Qiu Ziyue couldn't help but ask again:

"Grandma, how can I find you in the future?"

Grandma Cui Ci sighed softly and replied:

"If you want to see me, come find me at Lishan Manor!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Granny Cuici's figure gradually disappeared into the night.

Qiu Ziyue understood that Grandma Cuici had let go of her past obsessions and chosen a new way of life.

And I should move forward and pursue my own happiness.

The following day, Qiu Ziyue wrote a letter of divorce and asked Zhao Wanqing to help her.

After finding Qi Yuxuan and signing the papers, they severed all ties for life.

Zhao Wanqing said, "You're encouraging me to be a bad person again."

Qiu Ziyue said, "Please, after he signs, we'll go back to Cuici Cave. I'll find the treasure and give it to Li Cunxu."

That way I'll owe no one anything, and I won't bother anyone anymore. We can just travel back in time with Leng Feng and Qiu Langyu.

Zhao Wanqing said, "Then Minglan and Jingyun don't have a father anymore."

Qiu Ziyue said, "It's been so long, I miss my child too. In the future, when I meet someone I like..."

He likes me too. I'll find a father for the child. If I can't find one, I can raise the child by myself.

Zhao Wanqing said, "It can't be that serious, Ziyue. Qi Yuxuan only slapped you once. He didn't cheat on you. Maybe there's some misunderstanding."

Qiu Ziyue said that he and I had already written the divorce papers, and all that was left was for me to sign them.

He came to me to sign last time but we didn't get it done, so I'm granting his wish, which is fine.

"I came to Chang'an to find Granny Cuici, hoping to resolve the knot in my heart."

Qiu Ziyue continued,

"I've thought it through. It's better to end it quickly than to suffer for a long time. After all, he always hated me so much. I don't want to be so tactless."

Zhao Wanqing shook her head and took the divorce papers to Qi Yuxuan's inn.

Qi Yuxuan took the divorce papers and saw that Qiu Ziyue had already signed them. He was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood and coughed incessantly.

Just then, Mr. and Mrs. Yun Feiyang walked in and, seeing this scene, hurriedly asked:

"Zhao Wanqing, what do you mean by this? What has our young master done to offend you that you're trying to anger him like this?"

Zhao Wanqing explained:

“I came here at Qiu Ziyue’s request. She said she didn’t want to keep bothering him and wanted to let go.”

Qi Yuxuan said firmly:

“I will absolutely not agree to a divorce. If she really wants to do it, let Ziyue do it herself.”

Zhao Wanqing sighed and said:

"I don't know what happened between you, but Twilight Sparkle looks really sad."

Qi Yuxuan said, "We've fallen for Zhu Wen's divisive scheme. I want to see her and explain things to her."

"But she doesn't want to see you. She told me that she kindly brought you your nightgown."

I never expected you to hurl such nasty insults at her and even hit her.

Zhao Wanqing hesitated, saying, "I don't want to get involved in your affairs; I'm just helping her."

Qi Yuxuan asked anxiously:

"Does she really not want to see me? ...Then, Wanqing, for the sake of our years of friendship, can you tell me where she is?"

Zhao Wanqing pondered for a moment and said:

"Okay, I'll take you to see her, but don't tell her I brought you here. Just say you followed me, okay?"

Qi Yuxuan nodded in agreement.

So, Zhao Wanqing took Qi Yuxuan to the inn where Qiu Ziyue was staying.

Hopefully, they can resolve their misunderstandings and conflicts face-to-face.
