Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 47 - 46 Qin Yize is Back
Chapter 47: Chapter 46 Qin Yize is Back
Qin Xuan’s expression grew increasingly ashen, he used to think that Gu Qiaoqiao was a bit foolish, but today he felt that he was even more foolish than Gu Qiaoqiao.
He had actually been fooled by a young girl.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Gu Qiaoqiao’s words were right; the child used to be timid and weak, barely daring to speak.
It was just that over the past few days she had grown bolder and had also become smart and generous.
If it had been her in the past, facing such a situation, she would not have been able to defend herself with such clear logic.
Most likely she wouldn’t have been able to say a word, only knowing how to wail and cry.
The final outcome goes without saying, she definitely wouldn’t have been able to explain anything clearly, while Bai Yun would’ve walked out of the Qin family’s door with Silent Night Cicada’s swagger.
When coming back in, he and Shen Manru would not only have to hand over a huge sum of money but would also have to be grateful to this child.
Having realized all this, Qin Xuan’s gaze became complicated.
But at the same time, he hesitated, did he really have to send Bai Yun to the police station today?
Send her, he must send her!
He gritted his teeth, he had to teach Bai Yun a lesson; if she could calculate him, in the future she might just reach for the sky.
Moreover, it was she who had suggested filing the case.
She really was convinced that Gu Qiaoqiao wouldn’t dare to confront her.
Suddenly, Bai Yun began to cry softly. Just as she was about to continue her sobbing, she heard Grandma Qin’s cane thump on the floor as she said indifferently, “Bai Yun, today is the fifth day of the New Year; there’s no reason to be crying and sniffling in someone else’s home. Haven’t your parents taught you this?”
Her voice, neither too heavy nor too light, made Bai Yun’s crying come to a sudden halt.
Her face also turned exceedingly awkward as her confused brain tried to sort out a clear line of thought to extricate herself from the current predicament.
And just at that moment, the door of the Qin family was pushed open, a gust of biting cold wind ushered in a tall and slender figure into the living room.
Following him, several other people entered.
Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback.
It was Zhu Jianguo with a swollen face, Ning Yuli with a deathly pale complexion, Chu Chengfeng who looked triumphant, and Father Bai and Mrs. Bai, who seemed unaware of what had happened.
As if sensing something in her heart.
Qin Yize’s gaze from afar settled on Gu Qiaoqiao, his eyes sparkling with a chilly light under the sun, conveying a determined expression.
It was telling Gu Qiaoqiao that he had investigated the events of the night of the third day of the New Year and had brought the people involved.
Gu Qiaoqiao pursed her red lips tightly.
She had never doubted this man’s capabilities.
In both her past and present life, this young man, only twenty-two years old, possessed terrifying powers of action unknown to others.
In her last life, she was knocked unconscious and abducted, then sold to a remote village in the Southwest Great Mountain, more than two thousand kilometers away from the Imperial Capital.
Yet Qin Yize found her in just five days.
He traversed Desperate Cliff and entered the village alone.
That day, the villagers of the mountain village, who had always been barbaric, ignorant, and lawless, finally learned what a nightmare was…
He rescued her from the Great Mountain.
The last glimpse she caught before she fell unconscious was her final sight of Qin Yize in her past life.
It was only later that she learned that, after taking her to the hospital, Qin Yize was taken away by the Special Preparation Team of the Imperial Capital.
When he came out, he was faced with the cataclysmic disaster that had turned the Gu Family and Qin Family upside down.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s hands clenched together, gripping tightly before slowly releasing.
Suppressing the stormy thoughts rolling in her eyes, she indifferently shifted her gaze away.
When Bai Yun saw Zhu Jianguo and Ning Yuli, panic set in, and her legs gave out, causing her to collapse to the ground.
The following events naturally went smoothly.
Zhu Jianguo, perhaps frightened by Qin Yize or maybe because he was caught with leverage against him, disregarded the murderous glares from Father Bai, Mrs. Bai, and Bai Yun, and recounted what had happened.
In the end, he said apologetically to Gu Qiaoqiao, “I’m sorry, I was confused at the time and didn’t stop their nonsense. Blame me, please forgive me just this once.”
When Qin Yize heard the word “nonsense,” he abruptly kicked out, sending Zhu Jianguo flying to the ground, and coldly asked, “Is it nonsense?”
Zhu Jianguo dared not make another sound.
The way things unfolded completely surpassed Qin Xuan’s and Shen Manru’s expectations.
Grandma Qin’s face was as still as water, her teeth clenched, but she did not speak, for it wasn’t her turn yet.

Indeed, the Bai Family had gone too far!
Ning Yuli, with her head bowed, was also terrified. She hated Zhu Jianguo’s betrayal, despised Bai Yun’s incompetence, and hated Gu Qiaoqiao even more.
But she dared not raise her head.
This matter would certainly come to Grandpa’s knowledge, and she couldn’t bear to imagine the consequences.
Father Bai and Mrs. Bai had not expected the true facts to be such.
Mrs. Bai stepped forward to help her daughter up and slapped her on the back, hissing with a tone of disappointment, “You silly girl, how could you be so foolish, you and Qiaoqiao are so close on normal days, how dare you cause such a commotion, go quickly, apologize to your sister-in-law…”
Mrs. Bai was a clever woman; upon hearing Zhu Jianguo’s words, she knew that the situation could be big or small.
And the key lay with Gu Qiaoqiao, as long as Gu Qiaoqiao said she forgave, then all would be well.
In the end, she’d attribute it all to a minor squabble between sisters.
So while she pretended to scold Bai Yun with a show of anger, she secretly gestured to her daughter.
Bai Yun was naturally not foolish, or else how could she have manipulated the former Qiaoqiao so perfectly. She didn’t dare look at Qin Yize’s frosty face, knowing what she must now mean in his eyes.
Since there was no hope from Qin Yize, minimizing the major issue and dissolving the small one was the wisest course of action for today.
She quickly grasped her mother’s intentions, and Bai Yun changed her face swiftly, came before Gu Qiaoqiao, and with a thump, knelt down to her.
Gu Qiaoqiao blanked for a moment, looking at Bai Yun kneeling before her, reminiscent of her own past humiliation when she knelt before Sun Yingke.
A flicker of satisfaction inevitably rose in her heart.
A moment later, as if waking from a reverie, she shifted aside, and looking at the various expressions in the room, she frowned and said, “What are you doing? With so many elders in the room, you kneel before me, trying to force me to agree to something?”
Gu Qiaoqiao’s words added to Bai Yun’s humiliation.
Her kneeling had been in vain.
Gu Qiaoqiao had preemptively blocked her excuses.
Neither kneeling nor standing would do, Father Bai sharply rebuked, “Bai Yun, stand and speak, what kind of behavior is this?”
Bai Yun stood up and, bowing deeply to Gu Qiaoqiao, lifted her head earnestly and said, “Sister-in-law, it was a moment of confusion. Remembering our past closeness like sisters, please forgive me this once. In fact, I regretted it at the time, so I drank the orange juice with medicine myself. Please let me off this time for my timely repentance.”
Timely repentance?
Truly a joke.
Gu Qiaoqiao stared at Bai Yun. “If you regretted it, you should have poured out the juice. Why drink it? Are you that foolish? Moreover, you knew the person in that private room was your cousin, yet you insisted it was Qin Yize, tricking me to go in, because you thought I had drunk the juice with something added, right?”
