Chapter 430 Let's Start Over
As Qi Shuo recalled this, he seemed to lose control of his emotions and raised his hand to cover his eyes.

Hearing the faint sobs, Jiang Yuan turned her head and exchanged a glance with Xiao Xu, her feelings somewhat complicated.

A cruel and perverted murderer... who used to be a warm and kind person.

Tang Yiping is truly heartless.

However, whether Qi Shuo's statement is true remains to be verified.

Qi Shuo, having seemingly composed himself, continued, "That day, my mother was hospitalized again due to anger. Her condition was critical, so I notified my father, who was still in Yunjing, but I never expected..."

His voice choked with emotion, and he fell silent again.

Jiang Yuan pursed her lips, suddenly remembering that Qi Shuo's file stated both his parents were deceased. Could it be...?

Qi Shuo slowly said, "When my father heard the news that my mother was hospitalized that day, he was extremely anxious. He immediately booked a plane ticket and took leave from work."

He stared blankly into the distance. “I never expected that I would be in a car accident on the way to the airport. My father died on the spot, and my mother and I didn’t even have time to see him one last time.”

Hearing this, Xiao Xu felt extremely upset.

"It's my fault that he died," Qi Shuo murmured. "It's my fault that we ruined our once happy and beautiful family."

Although Qi's mother survived that day, she was left with aftereffects, including difficulty speaking and stiff, slow movements.

Qi Shuo dared not tell his mother about his father's death in the car accident, so he changed her phone number and hired a nanny to take care of her.

“I told my mother that my father had been temporarily assigned to a confidential project and could not contact the outside world, which is why he couldn’t come to the hospital to be with her.” Qi Shuo’s eyes suddenly flashed with resentment.

"My mother's health was slowly improving, but one day Tang Yiping suddenly came to our house and told her the news of my father's death."

Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu both frowned deeply, unable to believe that Tang Yiping had gone to such extremes.

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and sent Si Heng a message on WeChat: "Could you check the relationship between Qi Shuo and Tang Yiping?"

Qi Shuo's heavy voice was filled with helplessness: "When I arrived at the hospital, the doctor told me that my mother didn't have much time left."

Qi's mother's last wish was to see her son get married and have children.

Qi Shuo couldn't bear to disappoint his mother any longer, so he started going on blind dates.

But when he looked at those girls, he felt nothing at all.

However, Qi's mother's health condition did not allow him to slowly choose a partner he liked.

Qi Shuo married a primary school teacher through an introduction. Six months later, his wife became pregnant, and Qi's mother passed away a few days later.

"My mother is probably satisfied and has no regrets. She said that she is at ease now that I have a wife and children to accompany me, and she is going to go and keep my father company."

Qi Shuo looked at Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu, his expression softening. "After my mother passed away, my wife and I lived a respectful and comfortable life. The following year, my wife gave birth to a boy, and I became a father, gaining a new identity."

"Back then, I wanted to work hard to make our home a good place. I thought the three of us would live happily together, but..."

It was a rainy day. Qi Shuo was on his way home from get off work when Tang Yiping suddenly appeared and stopped him, saying she wanted to start over with him.

"Qi Shuo, I know I was wrong." Tang Yiping stopped him downstairs in the apartment complex, just like when she was driven to the brink of despair back then. "Only you truly love me and are truly good to me."

“Do you know what? My ex-husband is a scumbag. He lied to me. He only married me to have my child. After I gave birth, he went crazy and beat me.”

"I can't take it anymore, it really hurts." Tang Yiping rolled up her sleeves and opened her collar to show him the bruises on her body. "Qi Shuo, please give me another chance, okay?"

Qi Shuo stared at her expressionlessly, "Why do you think I would forgive you? Tang Yiping, you killed my parents and ruined my family. I will be even more ruthless to you than to your ex-husband."

"You wouldn't," Tang Yiping said dismissively. "Qi Shuo, you're a kind man, you would never do that to me."

She was confident and still believed that Qi Shuo was devoted to her. Qi Shuo sneered, "Tang Yiping, you are disgusting. I am already married. Please get as far away from me as possible and don't come here to disgust me anymore."

"You're married?" Tang Yiping stared at him in astonishment. "How could you possibly be married? Qi Shuo, are you kidding me?"

He loves me so much, how could I possibly get married?
He must have said that on purpose, trying to provoke himself.

Qi Shuo ignored her and coldly turned to walk into the apartment building.

"Qi Shuo!" Tang Yiping suddenly rushed up and hugged his waist. "I was confused and did something wrong before. Please give me another chance. I will love you with all my heart."

"Let go!" Qi Shuo coldly shouted.

Tang Yiping clung to him like a leech, saying, "Qi Shuo, let's start over!"

The wife, who had gone out for a walk with the baby, returned pushing the stroller and saw this scene from afar; her face instantly turned pale.

She gripped the stroller handle tightly, her heart clenching with pain.

Qi Shuo forcefully pried Tang Yiping's hands off and walked into the apartment building without looking back.

"Qi Shuo, I know you still love me!" Tang Yiping shouted at the man's back.

Qi Shuo's wife pushed the stroller up to her and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

Tang Yiping turned around and looked the woman in front of her up and down, her gaze finally landing on the stroller.

The child's features actually bore a striking resemblance to Qi Shuo's.

Tang Yiping frowned, realizing that Qi Shuo might really be married.

"and who are you?"

Qi Shuo's wife answered her with a question: "Why did you hug my husband just now?"

"Your husband?" Tang Yiping smiled provocatively. "Do you love your husband very much?"

"What does it have to do with you?"

"It's okay, but I just want to kindly remind you that your husband doesn't love you."

Qi Shuo's wife gripped the stroller handle tightly, her knuckles turning white, her face growing increasingly pale. "Nonsense!"

She tried to leave, pushing the stroller, but was stopped by the other person.

"What, you don't believe me?" Tang Yiping came prepared this time to get back together with Qi Shuo; her photo album was full of pictures of the two of them when they were young.

She clicked on one of the photos in the album, her tone full of pride, "This is from my senior year of high school. I had my period and my stomach hurt, and Qi Shuo made me some brown sugar water."

"This photo was taken after the college entrance exam. Qi Shuo took me hiking. When we got home, I said my feet were tired, so Qi Shuo specially boiled water for me to soak my feet."

"It's the start of the university semester, and Qi Shuo went to my dorm to help me make my bed."

"During my freshman year, Qi Shuo made a cake for my birthday."

"It's my sophomore year. Qi Shuo missed me so much. We went to a hotel on the weekend. I was lying on the bed and Qi Shuo was giving me a massage."

"In my junior year, Qi Shuo upset me, so he bought 999 roses and apologized to me downstairs in the girls' dormitory."

"During my senior year of college..."

"Enough!" Qi Shuo's wife interrupted her sharply. "You don't need to tell me these things. No matter how much you loved each other in the past, I am Qi Shuo's wife now."
