Chapter 390
Ziyue wasn''t in the mood to talk anymore.
She nodded, and silence enveloped them.
Xiyi hesitated before speaking. "I''m really sorry. I didn''t know you weren''t Lin Zixi''s biological mother. I
thought the two of you would be overjoyed with the result. Although it turned out this way, I believe in
Mr. Qin''s ethics."
Although Muchen threatened him to lie that the results were wrong, Xiyi felt that his actions were all for
Ziyue.
Xiyi hardly socialized with others. Even he, who was slow on the uptake of emotions and human
rtions, felt that Muchen cared a lot for Ziyue.
He was touched by this fact.
But he couldn''t lie due to his principles.
He wasn''t Muchen, who would do anything for Ziyue.
He was Mo Xiyi. His principles as a doctor were the most important thing to him.
"Yeah, I trust his ethics too." Ziyue put on a stic smile.
Xiyi turned to leave but faced her again. "Please call me if Mr. Qin doesn''t feel well."
She nodded. "I will."
Xiyi was an upright person.
The test results couldn''t be faked.
Just as Xiyi trusted Muchen, she believed that he wouldn''t have messed around. She knew he could
restrain himself.
Yet, with the truth before them, any justification would mean nothing.
She sat nkly in the living room when a loud bang came from the floor above.
He was breaking things again.
Such a terrible temper.
But she refused to say anything to him.
A momentter, a door upstairs creaked open.
Footsteps stomped down the stairs.
"Ziyue, let''s talk."
Muchen''s voice was filled with anxiety.
"Alright."
She stayed seated in her spot. She wanted to talk to him too.
He walked and stood before her. "I''ve never touched another woman."
She raised her head and nced at him. "I believe you."
She believed he had given her his heart and soul.
She quickly lowered her head. Muchen towered over her. He should be the one imposing on her. But
he felt that he was more on edge after looking at Ziyue''s reactions.
He crouched down and gripped her arms. "Look at me!"
In his agitation, he hadn''t realized he was pinching her wound.
She hissed in pain. He immediately pulled away his hands as if he had been electrocuted.
"I''m sorry, I''m…" He watched as she frowned. He wanted to reach out to her but was scared of hurting
her again. Therge man crouched before her helplessly.
She couldn''t bear to see him in that way. She lowered her eyes. "Don''t crouch here. Sit on the sofa."
"Alright."
He sat on the seat opposite her.
The air was silent.
They didn''t speak for a while.
Ziyue pressed her lips together. "I want to move back to the apartment for the time being."
He raised his head immediately. A dark look shed across his face. "No!"
She took a deep breath. "Listen to me."
She waited until he collected himself. "When I look at you, I''ll remember Zixi. You can''t tell me that
Xiyi''s test results were wrong. You''ve known him longer than I do. You know how much he values his
principles as a doctor. He wouldn''t have falsified the results. So, I want some time away from you. You
can take this time and investigate this matter."
He understood her words, but it wouldn''t make sense if he agreed to her request.
Muchen''s tone was forced. "I''ll investigate it, but I refuse to be separated."
"It''s just for a short while." She couldn''t ept Muchen''s child from another woman.
Even if he could pretend that Zixi didn''t exist for her, she would feel terrible.
The child was innocent. All fathers must fulfill their responsibilities.
Besides, he liked children…
"No, not even if it''s just for a short while." His face was dark, refusing to bargain anymore.
Ziyue was aware of his temper but felt furious.

"Qin Muchen, this is not the time to throw a tantrum! Do you want us to continue with our lives,
pretending that Zixi doesn''t exist, thinking that we can lead a happy and peaceful life? That''s not
possible!"
"I don''t care. Those are…"
He stopped in the middle of his sentence when he saw her red eyes. He began panicking. "Alright…"
He paused. "This is temporary. I''ll pick you up when everything''s over. Don''t cry anymore."
…
Ziyue moved back to the apartment.
The apartment that Yige lived in was arranged by Xingyan.
She was moving back to the apartment that Muchen had lived in with her two years ago.
Muchen hadn''t appeared from his study as she carried her suitcase out of the vi.
She was straining, carrying it with one hand.
He may have agreed to separate for now, but he must be angry at her.
Why else would he let her carry her things on her own?
Ziyue smiled wanly.
What should she do if they hadn''t separated?
She couldn''t just ept that he had a child with others.
A guard came up to her. "Mrs. Qin, I''ll put it in the car for you."
She shook her head. "It''s alright. I can do it myself."
After cing the suitcase in the car trunk, she nced at the wall windows on the second floor.
Muchen was nowhere to be seen.
On the second floor.
Muchen stood in the corner of the wall. He watched as Ziyue refused the guard''s offer to help and
hoisted the suitcase into the trunk with great effort. He gritted his teeth.
Are these guards idiots? They didn''t help her just because that foolish woman refused their help.
When he saw Ziyue turning to his direction, he quickly ttened himself against the wall to get out of
her view.
He only came out of the corner when the car engine started.
…
Ziyue spent half the day cleaning up the apartment.
She ran into an unexpected person as she went down to throw out the rubbish.
"Su Ziyue?"
Ziyue raised her head and saw Yige, who was bringing out rubbish as well.
Summer was approaching. Yige was dressed in a loose white cotton dress. Not a trace of makeup was
seen on her clean face. It was refreshing.
Ziyue scanned her up and down. "What are you doing here?"
