Chapter 6.1: Separation

(translated by peanuts and edited by lidge)

0.31: The door was not locked so Mo Sheng pushed it open. This was a double room. There was an empty bed and Yi Chen’s bed was near the window. The sound of the opening of the door did not wake him up. He was hooked to an IV and still sleeping.

Her heart seemed to be entangled by an invisible string. Step by step, she approached him, and that string little by little tightened.

He lay on the bed, his face looked pale and thin. While sleeping, he even had a frown. After meeting him again, she had not actually taken a good look at his appearance, and now she finally could. Her fingers unconsciously touched his wrinkled brows then brushed across his eyelashes. She could imagine if the owner was awake, this pair of eyes would certainly be cold and detached and sometimes slightly mocking.

Finally, the fingers stopped at the slightly pale lips. It was said that most of the people with this kind of lips are fickle in love. Yi Chen Yi Chen, why aren’t you like that? Don’t you understand that we could not return to the past. Seven years, everything has changed ……

Before she realized what she was doing, her lips replaced her fingers. Her lips still cold from the outside air, but his lips were unexpectedly warm. The warmness unexpectedly made her sad. Then, her tears without reason dropped one by one, and she could not control them.

Until her wrist was harshly grabbed by someone.

Yi Chen!

Has he waken up?

Mo Sheng’s mind immediately became blank. Her eyes were blurred by the tears so she couldn’t see his face properly, but she could still hear his angry voice.

“What are you doing?” Yi Chen asked with his gritted teeth, “Zhao Mo Sheng, what do you actually want!”

“I ……” She gaped and was tongue-tied, all her thoughts flew away from the brain. For some time, she did not know what to do and could only look at his fuzzy appearance. She felt the strength that was grasping her wrist was getting stronger, as if anxious to crush her wrist, only then would he be satisfied. She tried to control her tears, but they were beyond her control. Instead, more tears dropped more rapidly.

2.27: How could it be like this? She could clearly hear the things that she once held dear in her heart were in the process of being shattered. This kind of shattering sound made her feel afraid and panicked. Yi Chen’s aggressive voice made her scared. She did not know what she was doing. Didn’t she want to completely cut off the past including her connection with him? Then, what was she doing just a moment ago? She was totally confused.

Escape la! When this idea came out, it immediately dictated her action. She did not know where she produced so much strength to unexpectedly break free of his grasp and ran toward the door.

Yi Chen said in a stern voice: “Zhao Mo Sheng, you dare to go!”

Damn it!

Yi Chen looked at her pulling open the door so he abruptly pulled out the intravenous infusion drip in his left hand and got out of bed to stop her. However, he was still sick, had been resting on the bed for too long and his footsteps were far too anxious. Hence, he stumbled and felt down awkwardly at the bedside.

All these, Mo Sheng naturally did not know.

She blankly followed a group of people into the elevator. The people in the elevator glanced at her, but they were accustomed to seeing this so they lowered their heads absorbed in their own thoughts. This hospital is used to witnessing life and death incidents on a daily basis so one or two people with cheeks streaming with tears on their face are really very common.

After getting out of the elevator, the noisy sounds in the lounge all of a sudden filled her ears. In the midst of people coming and going, Mo Sheng suddenly did not know where to go.

Where could she go?

Didn’t she already know, although the world is big, there was not a place that didn’t have Yi Chen.

3.54: “Lawyer He?” Mei Ting was surprised to see the man appear at the door, “Lawyer He, aren’t you in the hospital ah?”

“I was discharged this morning. Mei Ting, take the information on the ANAS company case to my office later.” Yi Chen said that while walking, “Were there any important messages in these few days?”

“Yes.” Mei Ting immediately flipped through her notes to report a few important messages, then hesitated for a moment and said: “Lawyer He, a female reporter from “Xiu Se” called several times and said she wants to do an interview with you. She also personally came to the office once. She said that she is your alumna so do you want to return her call?”

When Yi Chen heard “Xiu Se” being mentioned, his eyes flashed slightly, then stayed calm again. “No, if she calls again, just reject her directly.”

“Okay.” Mei Ting nodded her head. Finally, she felt the lawyer He who deals with matters efficiently and never sloppy has returned.

After Xiang Heng came back from the prosecutor’s office, he directly went into Yi Chen’s office and saw him engrossed in his work. He simply did not know what to say.

“I did not believe what Mei Ting told me so can you explain what is going on?”

“What’s going on?” Yi Chen looked up at him from the file he was reviewing. His face was still a little pale, but his eyes were clear and lively.

“Don’t act dumb with me. I remember you are only allowed to be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow. May I ask why are you here now?”

“I left the hospital early.”

Xiang Heng stroke his head. Although he was a lawyer, he had to admit it is difficult to speak with a lawyer, as replying like this was the same as not replying: “Don’t you want to live anymore? The law firm will not collapse without you.”

“That may not necessary be true.” Yi Chen flipped through the documents in his hands, “I remember Lao Yuan and you are not good in this aspect.”

Xiang Heng snorted: “No matter how bad we may be, we will also not fail at the negotiating table.”

“Xiang Heng.” Yi Chen leaned back in his chair and looked at his good friend somewhat helplessly, “I will not treat my health as a joke.”

“Under normal circumstances, you will not ……” Xiang Heng looked at him and directly asked, “She visited?”

The emotion in Yi Chen’s eyes darkened, and he did not answer but asked: “Did you look for her?”

Xiang Heng nodded his head, looked at Yi Chen’s facial expression and sighed: “It seems that my action has backfired.”

“No, I want to thank you.” Yi Chen said dismissively, “If not for her giving me a heavy blow, how could I be completely clear-headed?”

“You ……” Xiang Heng gaped and did not know what to say again.

“Don’t worry.” Yi Chen looked at him with a calm face, “Our relationship has completely ended. No, it should be said, my own wishful thinking is completely over.”

6.15: At eleven o’clock at night, after Yi Chen parked the car, he walked into the elevator with his mind still thinking about the details of the negotiations on the day after tomorrow. Nowadays, he did not seem to be able to come back before ten o’clock because he had to prepare for several cases on hand at the same time so he was busy everyday until his eyes blurred from the amount of work. Xiang Heng had given up on persuading him whereas Lao Yuan always cheerfully counted how much the revenue for the quarter would increase by. He laughed happily and said he wanted to prepare the best coffin for Yi Chen.

In fact, he was extremely tired, but he desperately needed to keep himself busy.

The elevator arrived on the twelve floor. Yi Chen walked out of the elevator and took out his keys, ready to open the door. When he saw the person in front of his door, his action froze instantly.

She wore a thin sweater, hugging her knees and sitting on his doorstep. Her chin was resting on her knees, and her eyes stared fixedly at the floor.

She looked up when she heard the sound of footsteps. She appeared even more haggard than the patient, a bit thinner and with a sharper chin. The instant she saw him, her already big eyes seemed flustered, like a person in some kind of difficulty and desperate.

Nobody spoke. Yi Chen stood still for three seconds, then moved forward to walk past her.

He steadily opened the door, went in and turned his hand over to close the door.

But there was no sound of the door being closed. Instead, his sleeve was being tightly gripped by her.

“Yi Chen.” He heard her low and muffled voice, like the whimpering of a little animal, both also pitiful , “Do you still want me?”

Did she know what she was saying?! Yi Chen could only turn around and glared at her fiercely, his expression seemed like he had seen a ghost. Although her voice was soft, in such a quiet night so how was it possible that he could not understand? He tried hard to regain his sanity and wanted to pull back his sleeve, but she stubbornly hanged onto it.

A very familiar shameless gesture ah. Yi Chen realised he actually shamefully missed it.

8.19: “Let go.”

Perhaps his voice was too harsh, even her hands trembled a little. Then, slowly one finger by one finger, she slowly loosened her grip on his sleeve.

Yi Chen could not see her expression because her head was bowed down, but her grievance and sad appearance actually emerged in his mind at this very moment.

Every expressions were vivid in his mind, so clear that the next moment he would become soft-hearted.

Yi Chen ignored her and walked straight to the balcony. The cold night air sobered him up a lot. She always had the ability to disrupt his life, before in this way and even more so now. Therefore, he had to be even more calm, otherwise he was bound to be utterly defeated.

He walked back into the living room, but she was still curled up outside the door. “Come in.” His voice had recovered its calmness, “What do you want to drink? I only have beer and pure water here.” He remembered her favorite drinks were colorful ones.

Mo Sheng shook her head.

Yi Chen did not insist and sat down on the sofa, like an owner who was entertaining a guest: “Why did you come to look for me?”

Mo Sheng did not expect him to act in such a polite and unfamiliar manner so she somehow did not know what to do: “I, I went to the hospital today. The doctor said you have already left the hospital ……”

“If you’ve come to visit a patient, then you can go back.” Yi Chen interrupted her.

Mo Sheng was speechless.

Yi Chen looked at her and said with slight sarcasm: “If I didn’t hear wrongly just now, you seem to want an affair. I am very honored to be chosen by you ……” Then, he paused and did not continue to speak, but Mo Sheng was fully aware of what he was trying to say. Suddenly, her complexion turned pale. Finally, she experienced to what extent his words can hurt people. Under such an embarrassing situation, she could only manage to utter: “I did not.”

10.13: “Did not what?” Yi Chen stared at her with a pressing expression, “Could it be that you did not get married? It was just an excuse for you to resist me?”

Although he asked with a doubtful tone, he was about ninety percent certain. His suspicions were justified because he knew she had been living alone all this while, and she even went on blind dates……

Yi Chen’s heart felt a little pain, if it was indeed an excuse to resist him ah. At the same time, he also could not help feeling a little joy in the bottom of his heart.

However, Mo Sheng did not give him the desired answer. Her ill at ease look revealed a faint …… uneasiness.

As such, Yi Chen could completely understand without her saying it out loud. What reason? What calm? All also were thrown to the winds. Instead, anger and embarrassment filled his entire body.

He Yi Chen, when are you going to stop acting like a clown with such wishful thinking!?

“Okay, tell me what you want me to do? Be your secret lover in China or your shameful extramarital affair partner? Zhao Mo Sheng, I tell you this, don’t even bother to think about it!” He had to try hard to control himself to keep his hands from strangling her neck.

11.13: “No …… I …… I and him ……” Mo Sheng was frightened by his anger so she stammered and became inarticulate. The matter between Ying Hui and her cannot be explained clearly in a few words. In a moment of desperation, the only thing she could think of was to say: “I’ve divorced.” After saying it, she felt calmer and unconsciously repeated it again, “I’ve divorced.”

0.31: Have divorced? Yi Chen’s complexion became even more gloomy and chilly, he angrily laughed. “What makes you think I, He Yi Chen, would want a divorced woman?”

Mo Sheng froze, the expression in her eyes gradually darkened and her shoulders slightly drooped down. Was this not expected? Why did she come on this trip to let her dead heart died again? Just because of those lines in a poem, just because of that photo, she staked all on one throw. How foolish can she be!

But she still wanted him to know ah, “Between me and him is not so ……” Mo Sheng wanted to explain in vain.

“Enough!” Yi Chen could not take it anymore and interrupted, “You do not need to describe to me the relationship between you and your ex-husband. If you want to get sympathy and comfort, then you got the wrong guy.”

Her lips moved, but in the end she did not continue speaking. Say or do not say, in fact, it does not make a difference, isn’t that so? The facts already could not be changed.

“I’m going.” Mo Sheng stood up, not looking at him and said in a slight trembling voice, “I’m sorry for disturbing you.”

He did not stop her, as if caught in a confusing maze and not being able to make sense of anything.

She opened the door, then heard him said from behind: “Wait.”

She turned around. Yi Chen stood up from the sofa and picked up the car keys on the table: “I’ll send you back.”

Mo Sheng opened her eyes wide in surprise and shook her head: “No need, I can go home by myself.”

“Indeed, you can.” Yi Chen said mockingly, “Then, if you are not careful and an accident happens, I would be the prime suspect. At that time, we really would be unable to stay clear from each other.”

Are all the lawyers’ line of thought also careful like this? Mo Sheng said with difficulty: “I’m sorry to trouble you.”

2.21: “This is the last time in this lifetime.” Yi Chen said coldly.
