Chapter 486: 487: Parting Ways (2)
Several floors above, Qin Zhimei is desperately looking for the missing Yu Sixing. Yu Sihua, heavily pregnant, struggling to keep up, simply gives up walking, turning her gaze back to Huang Qichu, who seems lost in thought.
“Qichu, what’s wrong? Qichu, Qichu?” Yu Sihua called out several times before Huang Qichu came back to his senses.
He slowly looked at his wife, his expression gradually softened, “What is it?”
Yu Sihua shook her head, she vaguely sensed that her husband’s demeanor was a bit off. She thought back to just a moment ago when Qin Zhimei badmouthed Lu Weixi, and he retorted. Then, she remembered how they ran into each other on the ship, and Huang Qichu acted strange then too.
Could it be that Huang Qichu once had feelings for Lu Weixi…
Back then, Lu Weixi was Qin Zhigu’s girlfriend, and they had a great relationship. Judging from Lu Weixi’s candid and confident demeanor, there was no doubt about them. However, even if she was open and honest, who knew if her own husband secretly had feelings for her at that time. After all, at that time, Lu Weixi was considered a campus beauty and was pursued by many, even though she was with Qin Zhigu.
Having thought of this, Yu Sihua’s expression slightly hardened, she averted her gaze, her voice a bit stiff, “I’m not feeling well, I want to go back and rest.”
Usually, Huang Qichu would frantically ask her, “What’s wrong? Where do you feel unwell?” But now, he just nodded his head, and responded “Okay”.
The more he acted this way, the more upset Yu Sihua felt. She decisively turned around and headed for the elevator.

Meanwhile, on the first floor, Lu Weixi was completely unaware of being implicated in Yu Sihua’s suspicion. She merely thought Qin Zhiyou had asked her to meet at GRAFF because it was an exclusive luxury brand, where most people would give way. Fewer people meant less chance of being recognized. Also, it was conveniently located and easy to find.
As soon as Qin Zhiyou arrived, she felt they should leave.
Who would have expected Qin Zhiyou to grab her hand, “We’re here already, why not look around?”
Lu Weixi also had a wedding diamond ring. When they got married five years ago, Qin Zhiyou gave her a three-carat diamond ring. But ever since then, he hadn’t bought her any jewelry.
Naturally, Lu Weixi also loved these sparkling little things. Just a glance earlier caught her attention — a butterfly-shaped pendant, priced at 1.8 million yuan.
Although she has taken the Siyi Company’s project, earning over a million in design fees, she would never spend this money on such luxury.
But Qin Zhiyou insisted, “When I walked in, I saw you looking at the jewelry. Was it this one?”
He pointed to the butterfly pendant, then instructed the sales associate, “Bring it out for me.”
The sales associate, who naturally recognized the owner of the store, opened the counter and brought out the necklace. Without asking, Qin Zhiyou put the necklace around her neck.
The cold little thing rested against her chest, Qin Zhiyou was standing behind her. She looked at the necklace in the mirror and then at him.
Qin Zhiyou said, “It’s beautiful.”
It was indeed beautiful, but it was too expensive…. She was about to take the necklace off, “It’s too expensive.”
“That’s it. Charge it.”
Just as Lu Weixi was about to refuse, Qin Zhiyou laughed, “Silly girl, don’t you know, jewelry isn’t included in asset division. What I give to you, belongs solely to you.”
Little did Qin Zhiyou know at this moment that his words would almost become prophetic.
