From the court hearing to the issuance of the judgment, it takes about fifteen days to get the judgment. Only then can Yin Shulan and Qi Silei successfully complete the divorce through litigation.
She thought that after Qi Silei was beaten up by Yan Haikun and suffered losses, he would behave himself a bit. After all, the two had already divorced.
However, she obviously underestimated Qi Silei.
Finally being able to regain her freedom should have been a happy thing. But because of Yan Haikun's presence, Yin Shulan felt a bit annoyed. Thus, she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
It was precisely because she was still awake that she heard a faint sound of someone bumping into the glass door outside.
Although it was very faint, Yin Shulan still caught it. She didn't tell anyone. Her hearing was inherently more excellent than ordinary people's. Moreover, it was late at night and everything around was very quiet.
In an instant, all the hairs on her body stood up. Without thinking much, her vigilance made her immediately sit up from the bed, rush to the door and lock the door of her bedroom tightly.
After locking the door, she carefully backed away. Sure enough, not long after, the doorknob of her bedroom was turned. Seeing this scene with her own eyes, she was so scared that she covered her mouth tightly and her whole body couldn't stop shaking.
Finding that the door couldn't be opened smoothly from the outside, there soon came the sound of footsteps leaving.
Yin Shulan let out a sigh of relief, but then she remembered that there was another entrance to her room, which was the door and French window of the open-air balcony. She immediately turned around and rushed over. First, she locked the door again, and then the window. After locking all the exits, she pulled the curtains to block the view from the outside.
After doing all this, she curled up in the corner, hugging herself tightly and shivering.
As she predicted, the doorknob of the open-air balcony was also turned. Finding that it was also locked, the person then tried to move the window.
Strangely enough, after the person found that neither the window nor the door could be opened, there was no more sound from outside. Yin Shulan didn't hear the person leave, and the person didn't take any further actions either.
She felt strange and carefully lifted the curtain from the edge to look outside. Unexpectedly, she suddenly met a pair of eyes. This terrifying and soul - chilling scene made her scream out of control. After confirming that she was inside the room, the person outside immediately rammed the French window forcefully.
"Yin Shulan! I know you're in there! You bitch, you want to be with other men? Dream on! You won't escape tonight!"
It was Qi Silei! It was Qi Silei!!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The window in her room was made of the latest anti - theft glass. Ordinary people couldn't easily damage the glass. Although she knew that Qi Silei couldn't get in, the sound of him ramming the window was like a gong and drum pounding on her heart, making her extremely terrified.
Finding that he couldn't break the window, Qi Silei tried to break the door of the open - air balcony. The noise he made sounded so terrifying in this quiet night.
Yin Shulan was now feeling a kind of despair that was like being submerged.
Why on earth did she have to suffer like this? Wasn't it Qi Silei who made the mistake first? Even if she couldn't give birth to a child, was she wrong and wasn't worthy of any respect and love?
Qi Silei was determined to make Yin Shulan's life miserable tonight. He seemed to have brought tools with him. Soon, Yin Shulan heard the sound of the door lock loosening.
She hurriedly pushed and pulled the tables, chairs and cabinets to block the door.
At the moment when the door was blocked, the door lock was successfully broken by Qi Silei. But because the door was blocked by heavy objects and couldn't be moved, Qi Silei let out an angry curse. The sound of his footsteps gradually faded away, but Yin Shulan knew that he was going to break the main entrance of the bedroom!
Yin Shulan panicked and stepped back. Suddenly, her foot stepped on a small card. She looked down and found that it was the business card that Yan Haikun had given her when she got home today. She was like a drowning person grabbing a life - saving straw. Taking her phone and the business card, she hid in the bathroom of the bedroom and locked the bathroom door from the inside.
There came the sound of the door lock being broken again and again from outside. Yin Shulan trembled as she opened the phone book, entered the number on the business card and dialed Yan Haikun's phone.
Why didn't she call the police immediately? Maybe it was because the heroic appearance of Yan Haikun beating Qi Silei to the ground today was deeply imprinted in her mind. The only person she wanted to turn to for help at the first time was him...
When Yan Haikun received Yin Shulan's call, he and Lu Bo were drinking and having a great time. They were even a bit tipsy. The phone suddenly vibrated. He originally wanted to hang up, but when he saw that the number was from Jincheng, he suddenly remembered the cold and beautiful woman he had saved today.
Somehow, he answered the call.
He thought that the woman was calling him to talk about the marriage, but all he could hear was her terrified voice with sobs.
"Please, save me. Qi Silei, he's come..."
Yan Haikun immediately sobered up. He got up and rushed out. His face was as solemn as if he was going to a life - and - death fight.
"Brother Kun, Brother Kun, where are you going?"
Getting into the car, Yan Haikun told the driver Yin Shulan's address and told him to step on the gas pedal to the floor. Then he dialed the police hotline and briefly described the situation at Yin Shulan's place to the police.
It took twenty minutes to get from the bar to Yin Shulan's place. Even if they drove as fast as possible, they could only shorten the time by half. But the woman's crying voice always lingered in his mind. He felt as if his heart was tightly grasped by a big hand and he was suffocating.
"Drive faster!" he ordered.
"The gas pedal is already on the floor, sir!" the driver replied.
Yan Haikun frowned tightly. His face looked extremely ugly.
He regretted it. He regretted letting Yin Shulan get out of the car and leave. That guy surnamed Qi couldn't help but attack her at the entrance of the court today. They had been together for so many years. That guy must know where she lived. After suffering such a loss today, how could he let her go?
He hoped he could make it in time!
Yan Haikun and the police car arrived at Yin Shulan's place at the same time. Yan Haikun rushed into the house and headed straight for the bedroom. When he rammed open the door that was already in a terrible state, what he saw was Qi Silei grabbing Yin Shulan's hair and dragging her out of the bathroom.
At that moment, he felt as if his heart was about to stop. His mind went blank. Relying on instinct, he rushed forward, stopped Qi Silei and saved Yin Shulan from his hands.
When the two were wrestling, a shiny fruit knife fell from Qi Silei's body, fully revealing his intention of coming here tonight.
— He intended to kill Yin Shulan.
If Yin Shulan hadn't been vigilant and stayed awake, and locked the door in time to buy herself some time, she would surely have become a cold corpse tonight.
For the first time, Yan Haikun felt what "the anger of both man and God" meant. The self - blame for almost causing Yin Shulan's death made him on the verge of losing control. He wished he could beat Qi Silei to death on the spot.
Finally, Qi Silei was taken back to the police station by the police on the charge of attempted murder after breaking into a house. As important witnesses, Yan Haikun and Yin Shulan also went to the police station to give statements.
After giving their statements, the two stood outside the police station. Yan Haikun looked down at Yin Shulan.
It had only been six hours since they separated, but she was injured again and almost lost her life. At this moment, he felt a kind of pity for the woman in front of him.
His fingers twitched. He wanted to lift his hand to tuck her stray hair behind her ear. But then he remembered that they were only getting married by agreement, and his wife had passed away only half a year ago. He forcibly held back.
"Do you have any other place to stay?" he asked.
Yin Shulan said, "I can only go back to my parents' place."
The word "only" made him realize that going back to her parents' place wasn't the best choice for her. After all, this marriage was arranged by her parents and the Qi family.
Sighing in his heart, Yan Haikun said, "Come back with me."
