My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Zhu Rui glanced at Ning Qing through the rearview mirror. “Madam, President is waiting for you in the villa.”

“Oh.” Ning Qing fluttered her eyelashes and cast her gaze down shyly.

…

In the villa

Ning Qing walked into the living room, and Lu Shaoming stood before the French windows. He was wearing a black shirt and black trousers, and this black outfit particularly suited a mature 30 year man. The thin material of his clothes accented his sculpted, built figure.

Ning Qing took light steps forward, grabbed his waist from behind, and sweetly called out, “Hubby.”

Lu Shaoming slowly turned around, and his dark eyes had a layer of gentleness in them. “You are back!”

“Yeah.” Ning Qing nodded her head and said, “The police said that surveillance footage has surfaced which has proven that I was not present at the crime scene. Hubby, you handed the video over to the police right? Did you find how who exactly wanted to harm me?”

Lu Shaoming held Ning Qing’s small shoulders and brought her towards the sofa in the living room. The two of them sat down on the sofa, and Lu Shaoming said plainly, “You do not need to worry about it; I will handle this.”

As he spoke, Lu Shaoming took a thin piece of paper and handed it over to her. “Look at this.”

Ning Qing took the piece of paper and smiled sweetly. “What is this? Is this a surprise from Hubby?”

Ning Qing’s voice came to a jarring stop because the two big words on the paper. “Divorce Agreement” suddenly came into her line of sight.

Ning Qing froze for a few seconds. She regained her senses very quickly and seriously took care to look through the contents of the agreement. Her white fingertips touched the bottom of the page where the signature line was. The name “Lu Shaoming” had been written with a fountain pen. It was strong and cool, and it was apparent that it had been signed with much physical strength.

“Hubby, it is not April’s fool day. Are you playing a joke on me?” Ning Qing calmly placed the paper back on the coffee table, and her moist, sparkling eyes were staring firmly at Lu Shaoming.

Lu Shaoming avoided her gaze and said, “Ning Qing, if you do not have any disagreements with the contents of the agreement. Then we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete our divorce then…”

He had not finished his words and he heard the woman agree immediately. “Sure.”

Lu Shaoming froze.

Ning Qing saw him freezing and quickly laughed. She cupped his handsome face. “Shaoming, look. When you heard me agree just now you immediately froze. How can I believe that you would want to divorce me when you react like this? Don’t kick up a fuss; this joke is not funny at all.”

Lu Shaoming slowly lifted up his face and welcomed her gentle gaze. The two of them were very close, and the tips of their noses were touching one another, and their breathing became rushed.

He only looked at her but did not speak.

“Shaoming, we have been together for merely half a year. We have only been newlyweds for not even a month. Don’t say that you are tired of me or whatever nonsense. I do not believe it. Because I know that you always loved your little Wifey. Shao,ing, have you forgotten that you said that you wanted to grow old with me? You said that you would never leave me. Although this divorce is only a joke, I am very very upset. This is really the worst thing you have done in our marriage. You take this divorce agreement back, and I will act like nothing ever happened.”

Lu Shaoming felt a warmth on his lips, and it turned out that the tears in her eyes had rolled down onto his lips.

She cried.

She obviously knew that he would not divorce her, but she still cried.

Ning Qing kissed his lips lightly,hovered around his lips, and murmured softly. In a soft voice, she said, “Shaoming, I have many guesses about why you would want to divorce me. I would maybe be emotional and do some senseless things. You tell me the reason for the divorce, and I will listen.”

Lu Shaoming was silent for a few seconds, took away her small hand that she had placed on his face, and made a distance between them.

He looked at her tears. She wiped her tears away with her small hand and looked at him very seriously.

She was waiting for his answer.

Lu Shaoming lifted his hand, wiped the tears off her face, and said, “Ning Qing, I hope you can sign the documents quickly, then go with me to finalize the divorce. We will end it amicably, and if you really want to question why am I divorcing you, then it would be… When I married you in the past, that was because I liked you when you were naïve, but you have changed now, and become complicated. I cannot continue to like you. Protect yourself well after the divorce and lead a happy life.”

The warmth on Ning Qing’s face vanished, and Lu Shaoming stood up, “Give me a call when you want to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with me, and one more thing — since we are going to be divorced, it would not be appropriate to live together anymore. You move out of this place then. I still have matters to handle in the office. I have to go.”

Lu Shaoming lifted his feet and departed.

Ning Qing watched his shadow disappear before her eyes, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

…

Lu Shaoming walked out of the villa and sat inside the Bentley. Zhu Rui started the engine and drove off.

The Bentley drove onto the main road, and Lu Shaoming wound the window down. He was expressionless as he saw a luxury vehicle parked on the side of the road around the corner. Mu Yunfan sat in that luxury vehicle. Their gazes collided, and Mu Yunfan shrugged his shoulders and lifted his eyebrows. He had the demeanor of a victor, and Lu Shaoming slowly curled up his lips and laughed coldly.

“Young Master, did you think there was a problem with the reason Young Master Lu gave to Miss Ning?” Butler Zhou asked suspiciously.

Mu Yunfan’s gaze landed on the surveillance footage in the car. He could see Ning Qing bury her lithe figure into the sofa, and she was sobbing painfully.

“There should be no issue with that. What tricks would Lu Shaoming have up his sleeve at this moment?” Mu Yunfan said, and stretched out his arm to touch Ning Qing on the screen. There was a pain in his eyes. “Qingqing don’t cry. Older Brother will make sure that you won’t shed another tear in the future.”

…

Ning Qing cried for 5 minutes and then wiped her tears. She stood up and walked out of the villa.

She could not cry, and she did not have the time to be upset.

Why did Lu Shaoming suddenly ask her for a divorce?

The man pitied her for spending a night at the police station, and it’s not like he didn’t have feelings for her; he loved her.

Since it was not a problem with the relationship, Ning Qing was not fearful.

Why did he want a divorce with her then? Something bad must have happened.

What could have happened at this stage now? Unless it was about the matter concerned how she framed to go into prison…

She heard that the video footage handed over today morning was taken outside the Tea Pavilion Villa, and if this footage was handed over to the police by Lu Shaoming, why did he not hand it over yesterday?

There could only be one reason then: He did not have the video yesterday. He had only received the video this morning.

There was a cold, sharp blaze of happiness in Ning Qing’s eyes. Was someone threatening Lu Shaoming?

And they was using her to do so?

What did this person want?

Who was this person?

Ning Qing’s small head whizzed around quickly. At this moment, she walked onto the main road, and someone quickly identified her.

Everyone pointed their fingers towards her and commented amongst themselves, “Quick have a look. This is the famous celebrity Ning Qing; she is the murderer.”

“Oh my, look at how beautiful she is. I didn’t expect her to have such an evil heart! She was so cruel. That was a 5 months-pregnant-woman. She stabbed her in the stomach. It was so bloody and cruel.”

Ning Qing did not worry about these passers-by. She still hadn’t been proven totally innocent rin their eyes, and making further explanations would be a waste of time. Nobody would believe her.

“Ay, look. She is not even bothering with us. She is so stuck up.”

A small boy picked up a small pebble on the side of the road, and he threw it in the direction of Ning Qing. “Murderer, murderer.”

Ning Qing saw the pebble fly towards her forehead, she turned sideways to duck, but before she could move her body, someone took her in his embrace. A gentle voice rang out beside her ear, “Qing Qing, be careful.”

Ning Qing turned her gaze to have a look. Her eyes contracted, and she said, “Mu Yunfan?”

Mu Yunfan looked at Ning Qing’s shocked expression and with a smile on his face, he said, “Qingqing, why are you so surprised when you look at me?”

Ning Qing instinctively knew that her reaction was too obvious, and she tucked a bundle of hair by her cheek behind her ear. She moved her body, escaped from his arms, and took a step back. She replied saying, “Oh, didn’t you board the flight back to Singapore this morning? I was surprised when I saw you here.”

“I prepared to leave this morning, but I heard that Ning Yao passed on and you were implicated in this murder. How would I leave in peace with you being in this state?”

“I did not murder anyone. I am innocent.”

“Yeah, of course I believe Qingqing is innocent. You did not even dare to step on an ant when you were younger. I heard that you were bailed out, so I came over to see what I could help out with. I saw Lu Shaoming’s car leave. Shouldn’t he be with you? Where are you headed all alone?”

Ning Qing looked at Mu Yunfan’s stunning, beautiful eyes for a few seconds and she frowned slightly and pouted her lips while saying, “Shaoming, he…wants to divorce me. He also kicked me out of the villa.” Ning Qing pinched Mu Yunfan’s windbreaker as she continued, “Why do you think Shaoming is doing this to me? We were perfectly fine yesterday.”

The girl was depressed. She had just cried earlier, and the tip of her small nose was still red. She cast her gaze down, and her long lashes that resembled a butterfly’s wings were stained with her glistening tears. Her pitiful look made her resemble a little kitten that had been abandoned by her owner.

Mu Yunfan held Ning Qing’s small hand and kneaded her frail little hand in his palm. He sounded like he was taken aback as he said, “Young Master Lu wants to divorce you? Why? You are in the midst of a crisis right now. You were framed by someone and need help urgently. Him leaving you now is the conduct of a scoundrel. Qingqing, don’t you worry, Older Brother will protect you.”

At this moment, Ning Qing was even more upset. “Who do you think is framing me? Who has such huge grievances with me that he killed Ning Yao and wants me to be the scapegoat?”

Mu Yunfan caressed her soft hair, and he comforted her saying, “Where do you want to go now? The matter regarding Ning Yao has already spread. You are in danger being alone right now.”

Ning Qing lifted her gaze to look around the streets. She curled her lips up into a smile and was a little self mocking as she snorted, “That’s right, where I can go right now? Shaoming has kicked me out of the villa, and I cannot return to my mother’s place. I am afraid that I would get her into this mess. Who else still can take me in?”

“Qingqing, follow me back then.”

“Follow you back?” Ning Qing looked at Mu Yunfan and contemplated for two seconds before nodding her head. “Okay then.”

…

The two of them arrived at a villa. Ning Qing looked at the luxurious décor inside, and the smile on her face was even more bright. This was the place that the man who wanted to leave T City yesterday stayed at?

Mu Yunfan looked at the smile on her face, and he started to feel suspicious.

Lu Shaoming wanted to divorce her. She did not cry or make up a fuss, but she was very calm. She was being too abnormal.

Furthermore, she was so resistant towards him yesterday, but when he suggested to bring her back just now. She did not even contemplate for a few seconds. Instead, she had agreed hastily.

Does she have a trick up her sleeve?

“Qingqing, what are you laughing about?”

Ning Qing did not look at him. She naturally stretched out her hand to point towards the old tree outside the window and emotionally said, “Do you still remember when we were 10 years old? I picked up a small bird below the tree. The small bird fell from the nest on the tree, and I was very upset that the small bird could not find its way home. At that time, you took the small bird into your hands and started to climb the tree. The old tree was over 10 meters high, and you scaled it, fell, and scraped yourself. And you finally got the small bird back into its nest. The only pity was that it was Uncle Mu’s birthday that day, and Uncle Mu saw how you dirtied yourself up and quickly and sternly chided you.”

As he listened to Ning Qing mention those happy times, Mu Yunfan’s cold expression became warm instantly. He wanted to hug Ning Qing.

Lu Shaoming was right; he was unable to control his own destiny from the moment he was born. He did not bother about anyone in this world, but the only person that he could see in his eyes was Ning Qing.

She was so naïve, kind, and beautiful. Being together with her, he felt that he had also become good, and he felt satisfied.

She was the only ray of sunshine in his life, and he struggled ferociously to hold on to the warmth in his palm.

His Qingqing, how could he let her go?

She sensed his footsteps approaching, and Ning Qing focused her gaze in his direction. Her expression was upset as she said, “Older Brother Yunfan, we have known each other for 18 years, and were separated for 3 years. In the middle of it all, I got married and thought that I found my own bliss. I did not think that when I would meet with difficulties, I would only have Older Brother Yunfan accompanying by my side.”

Mu Yunfan froze. He wanted to hug her. He felt his head ache a little, and Ning Qing looked at him with such naïve reliance on her face, but what was he doing?

No, he did not do any of this.

It was another him who did it.

He only needed to quietly enjoy the results.

“Older Brother Yunfan, who do you think was the one who killed Ning Yao? Who exactly wants to frame me?” Ning Qing stared into his eyes as she questioned him.

Mu Yunfan calmed his emotions, and he let out a perfect, warm smile and said, “Qingqing, you don’t have to ponder these questions. Older Brother has said it before — Older Brother will protect you. It is lunch time, let’s go. Older Brother asked someone to prepare a table of dishes for you. They are all dishes that you love.”

Mu Yunfan held Ning Qing’s small hand and brought her into the dining room.

Ning Qing looked at his back profile and slowly closed her eyes hopelessly.

…

Ning Qing’s appetite was very good as she ate a small bowl of white rice. She smiled as she said, “Older Brother Yunfan, I still want to eat another bowl.”

Butler Zhou passed the empty bowl to Aunty, and the aunty dished another bowl of rice for Ning Qing.

“Qingqing, your appetite is good today.”

“That’s right, no matter what we meet in life, we have to feed ourselves well first. We will have energy to go to battle after our stomachs are full. Older Brother Yunfan, Shaoming wants to divorce me, but I will not agree to it. Do you have time this afternoon or tonight to bring me to look for him?”

Mu Yunfan elegantly ate a mouthful of rice, and he did not hesitate to nod his head as he said, ‘Sure, I will have Butler Zhou check on Young Master Lu’s activities later, and we’ll bring you to look for him.”

“Yay! Thank you Older Brother Yunfan. Later on, after I finish my meal, I will go to take a nap. Wake me up if you receive any news.”

“Sure.”
