Even After My Death

Chapter 77: Chapter 70: Domestic Abuser Task Completed Chapter 77: Chapter 70: Domestic Abuser Task

Completed In the following days, Qin Taoran took the initiative to share her daily amusing stories with Jiang Ning,

and occasionally when they met on the stairs, Qin Taoran’s face was flushed with a healthy glow, a far cry from

her previous panicked and powerless demeanor.

Ruan Jiahua was severely beaten by Jiang Ning that night, followed by another beating from Qin Taoran, and the

next day his whole body was sore and his face was swollen like a pig’s head.

Ruan Jiahua, too, cared about his reputation and took sick leave from work, planning to rest at hfor a few

days.

Qin Taoran had been abused by Ruan Jiahua the night before, covered in red marks and feeling equally

uncomfortable. However, seeing Ruan Jiahua in discomfort made Qin Taoran suddenly feel that her own injuries

were nothing in comparison.

Without thinking, Qin Taoran kicked Ruan Jiahua as he lay in bed.

When cooking, Qin Taoran only prepared enough food for herself and her daughter. After eating, she would send

her daughter off to kindergarten and leave nothing for Ruan Jiahua.

Ruan Jiahua was shocked and didn’t understand how Qin Taoran had suddenly becso strong, not daring to

express his anger aloud.

In the past, every tRuan Jiahua chome, Qin Taoran felt like she was in hell, never knowing when Ruan

Jiahua might suddenly kick or slap her. Now, the roles had reversed, with Qin Taoran kicking or slapping Ruan

Jiahua whenever she pleased, finding great satisfaction in his gloomy expression.

Having taken several days off, Ruan Jiahua could only endure staying at hfor two days before he couldn't

take it anymore and went back to work against his original plan.

Qin Taoran stopped bringing up the topic of divorce and instead focused on punishing Ruan Jiahua. After

returning from work, Ruan Jiahua no longer found a hot meal waiting for him, but a cold and violent wife, who all

but ensured mutual harm.

Ruan Jiahua worked during the day, while Qin Taoran slept.

At night, when Ruan Jiahua was in bed, Qin Taoran, full of energy, would stand by the bed and watch him, and

then yank him out of bed.

The bullying tactics Ruan Jiahua once used on Qin Taoran were now being repaid back onto him.

It only took a few short days for Ruan Jiahua to becintolerable.

He started to apologize profusely and sought peace, while also trying to find out why Qin Taoran had suddenly

becso violent.

Having been married for three years, Qin Taoran knew exactly what he was thinking—it was laughable.

Qin Taoran continued to do as she pleased, coming up with endless ways to torment Ruan Jiahua.

Seeing that his attempts at reconciliation were futile, Ruan Jiahua changed his approach and began to threaten

Qin Taoran, but she was not afraid of him.

Looking at Ruan Jiahua, who was furious and wanted to call the police while covered in red marks from a whip,

Qin Taoran just laughed heartily, “Didn’t you forget that we are husband and wife? With a marriage certificate,

it’s normal for minor altercations to occur between a married couple—it doesn’t constitute intentional harm.”

This was the exact sargument Ruan Jiahua had used against Qin Taoran before, and now she used his words

against him.

Ruan Jiahua was so angry he could vomit blood, and for the first the thought about divorcing Qin Taoran—but

he couldn't stand these tormented days anymore!

But right after, Ruan Jiahua restrained that thought.

No, he couldn't just let Qin Taoran off easy with a divorce! How could he let Qin Taoran be free from him and lead

a good life after she had tormented him like this!

While Ruan Jiahua was determined to maintain the marriage, Jiang Ning’s life hadn't changed despite helping Qin

Taoran.

Jiang Ning continued her routine of training at the Martial Arts Gym every day, occasionally sparing with Mu Yun,

becoming more flexible and agile than before.

One time, when Jiang Ning cback home, she coincidentally ran into Ruan Jiahua standing in front of the

elevator. In just a few short days, the lackluster and heavily dark-circled Ruan Jiahua had aged more than a

decade!

No wonder, given Ruan Jiahua’s age and that he wasn’t a young man anymore. Harassed at work during the day

and facing sudden attacks from Qin Taoran at night, without proper food or sleep, it would be strange if he did

have vitality.

As Jiang Ning spotted Ruan Jiahua, he also saw her walk into the building as if nobody else was present.

Ruan Jiahua watched her with a sullen expression but was wary of Jiang Ning’s off-the-charts fighting ability and

didn’t dare to act rashly.

Jiang Ning ignored Ruan Jiahua’s presence and lightly jogged up the stairs to her home.

The next morning, Jiang Ning received a call from Qin Taoran.

Qin Taoran laughed over the phone, “After | dragged him out of bed again last night, he finally couldn't take it

anymore and asked to divorce me.”

Jiang Ning: “Hmm? And then?”

“I knew he couldn’t standand wanted a divorce to get speace. But he didn’t say he'd give Ruirui to me,

so | held back and didn’t agree.”

Hearing Qin Taoran’s words, Jiang Ning thought she was quite clever.

If Qin Taoran had agreed to divorce without a second thought the moment Ruan Jiahua asked, or if she had asked

to take Ruirui with her, Ruan Jiahua would definitely have sensed her eagerness and vulnerability.

On the contrary, now that Qin Taoran, who had always wanted a divorce, seemed less eager about it in the face

of this miserable life, the one who should be anxious would be Ruan Jiahua.

As Jiang Ning had predicted, Ruan Jiahua brought up the divorce with Qin Taoran every day thereafter.

Qin Taoran ignored him, only escalating the torment on Ruan Jiahua as if angry about the divorce.

Ruan Jiahua was somewhat crumbling and demanded of Qin Taoran, “What exactly do | have to do for you to

agree to a divorce?”

“Move,” Qin Taoran, evidently in a good mood, sat on the side eating fruit and glanced at the three-year-old

Ruirui playing with toys on the floor, casually saying, “Just give up. Can't we just live together as a happy family?

Wherever Ruirui is, that’s where I'll be. | will not separate from you.”

Ruan Jiahua's face darkened, and the way he looked at Ruirui was not like a father beholding his daughter, but

rather like an enemy.

After a long moment, Ruan Jiahua clenched his teeth and declared, “Fine! You can have custody of Ruirui, let's

get a divorce!”

Qin Taoran’s heart raced; she finally had reached this day!

But Qin Taoran knew the more excited she felt inside, the less she could show it.

She feigned hesitation, struggling with the decision for quite a while.

Ruan Jiahua, however, couldn’t wait any longer, flipping through their marriage photo and household registration

booklet, ready to leave at once, unable to endure another day of this life!

Qin Taoran held her daughter and followed suit.

With both spouses in agreement, the divorce proceedings were very quick.

Half an hour later:

[Congratulations to the Host for completing the task, Qin Taoran’s divorce is successful, reward 3 days of life

value, 10 points of merit. ]

[Random reward of one chance to spin the Host’s prize wheel! ]

The System's voice resonated in Jiang Ning’s mind, and at the stime, her phone received a message from

Qin Taoran: “Xiao Jiang, thank you! I'm divorced!”

Unexpectedly, the two got divorced so quickly; it seemed Ruan Jiahua had indeed been tormented by Qin Taoran

these past few days...

But regardless, the completion of this task allowed Jiang Ning to breathe a sigh of relief. She didn’t have to worry

about what Qin Taoran would do while she was away filming the variety show.

Jiang Ning: ©~_~ Congratulations, congratulations, reborn anew.

Ruan Jiahua was only divorced, not dead, and who knew, perhaps this footage could cin handy in the future.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ning also told Qin Taoran that the Little Bear hair clip was a surveillance camera and the

reasons why she had given it away at that time.

Qin Taoran thanked Jiang Ning again and then returned the Little Bear hair clip to her that very night.

The item looked quite valuable, and

that what she did was wrong.
