My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go

Chapter 779: If Life Were Just Like When First Met (5)

On the seventh day of Qin Qian’s absence, Yuan Shen felt completely off, like something was missing, making him exceptionally irritable.

In the past, whenever they argued, the fights never lasted more than three days. Despite Qin Qian appearing fierce, she was actually quite soft-hearted. Even though over the years her temper had changed, her inherent gentleness remained. So every time as long as he coaxed her a little, she would burst into laughter even after crying; even if he didn’t coax her, she wouldn’t stay angry for long and would soon come back to him on her own accord.

It had always been this way for so many years, so he hadn’t expected that this time she would endure for so long.

Yuan Shen was also slightly angry.

Women truly can’t be spoiled; once you spoil them, they start climbing all over you. If he surrendered too easily again, who knew what Qin Qian would become in the future.

The young and hot-blooded Yuan Shen, even though he liked her so much, still couldn’t swallow his pride.

So even though he grew more irritable, countless times daily he picked up his phone, subconsciously wanting to dial Qin Qian’s number, but he always held back at the last moment.

As if trying to prove he was fine without Qin Qian, Yuan Shen played more wildly. He had always loved to play, and knew how to play. Considering Qin Qian before, he held back somewhat, but now he completely let go, playing until the wee hours with different women every day.

These women, obedient and gentle, just like she was three years ago, how did he spoil her into the Qin Qian of today?

Qin Qian had been waiting for Yuan Shen all along.

At first, she thought, that bastard Yuan Shen, unless he gets on his knees and admits his mistake, promising not to flirt around anymore, she won’t forgive him.

But as time passed, she thought, unless Yuan Shen called her and said a hundred apologies, she would never forgive him.

Then she checked her phone every day, and even the slightest movement made her heart race, yet there was never a trace of Yuan Shen’s message. At that time, she thought, if only Yuan Shen sent her a message, said something soft, she would forgive him.

But, one week, two weeks, three weeks, a month passed.

Qin Qian went from extreme anger, to calming down, to daily anticipation, to eventually being filled with anxiety.

This month, she endured through these emotional transformations, and as for Yuan Shen? Every day she heard news about him from all corners, whether it was playing all night or drinking with some beauty, like a wild horse unbridled—insanely unrestrained.

Her departure, her breakup words, had no impact on him whatsoever, as if he even relished in it.

Finally, no one to control him, finally, no one to restrain him.

Qin Qian every day was so furious her organs ached, every day spouting bitter words, saying she didn’t care for Yuan Shen that bastard, let him play all he wanted, yet every day hiding under the covers, she couldn’t stop her tears.

This love, it was Yuan Shen who started it, but the one who fell deeply was her.

She loved him more than he loved her, so she was destined to be the loser.

After persisting for a month, she couldn’t hold on anymore, packed her bags, and returned to L City.

She didn’t go home, but went straight to Yuan Shen’s apartment.

She went in the evening, before Yuan Shen came home, and she stood at the door, waiting for him.

Time ticked by, and the sky gradually darkened. Qin Qian didn’t know how long she’d been waiting; she was both sleepy and hungry, on the verge of giving up when the elevator door dinged softly and opened.
