Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 163 - This is Just the Beginning (Extra)
Chapter 163 -163 This is Just the Beginning (Extra)
His accuracy was one hundred percent.
Qin Yize suppressed the shock inside him.
He fixed his gaze on the focused Gu Qiaoqiao.
Under the sunlight, the charming young girl’s eyes seemingly carried a hint of murderous intent, yet her lips were slightly curled up.
It was her first time holding this pistol, and her movements were awkward and inexperienced. Yet the shot she fired hit the bright red target dead center without any deviation.
At that moment, Qin Yize felt as if his heart skipped a beat.
Afterward, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t hide it and told Qin Yize through her perfect score that she was a shooting prodigy.
Naturally, the real reason was known only to Gu Qiaoqiao.
But that didn’t stop her from smugly raising her eyebrows at Qin Yize, who was intently watching her, “How about a match?”
“Not today,” Qin Yize’s eyes were slightly dim as he smiled lightly, “When we return to the Imperial Capital, I’ll take you to the shooting range.”
Gu Qiaoqiao hummed indifferently. Going to the Imperial Capital, she might not have time to play.
“Is it fun?” Qin Yize asked again.
“Yeah, quite fun.”
“Ever thought about becoming a soldier or a shooting athlete?” Qin Yize asked as if casually.
Gu Qiaoqiao was firstly startled, then found the Qin Yize in front of her somewhat baffling, and soon after, she chuckled, “What are you joking about?”
A soldier?
An athlete?
She had never thought about that.
Qin Yize bent his lips into a smile, gazing at the girl laughing brightly under the sun, his eyes deep and solemn. He spoke after a long pause, “I was joking.”

Gu Qiaoqiao handed the pistol back to Qin Yize, looking around, this place was actually a restricted area, by rights, she shouldn’t have come here.
But she knew that Qin Yize wanted to test her.
To see just how skilled her hands were.
Although Gu Qiaoqiao knew she and Qin Yize had no future, it didn’t conflict with her knowing that he was an upright man.
So, she trusted him.
At this moment, Qin Yize also seemed to feel this, his eyebrows softened, and he stretched out his hand to pat the top of Gu Qiaoqiao’s head, speaking softly, “Let’s go home.”
Having said that, without waiting for Gu Qiaoqiao to react, he took the lead with his long strides towards the exit of the shooting range.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes dimmed slightly.
The hand by her side clenched.
Qin Yize’s little gestures seemed to be getting more and more natural.
Was it her indulgence, or did he just want to act this way?
This couldn’t be good.
She realized she had ignored a fact: Qin Yize was a man.
At that time, Qin Yize stopped walking, turning back to look at Gu Qiaoqiao, who seemed to be lost in thought.
He clenched his hand, knowing what she was struggling with.
She would get used to it.
This was just the beginning.
“Don’t want to leave?” he asked, his eyebrows fluttering, his voice deep.
Gu Qiaoqiao then snapped back to reality, reined in her thoughts, and quickly followed Qin Yize home.
It was already afternoon.
For some reason, just when she guarded her heart, she felt difficulty breathing in the same room as Qin Yize.
It had been very natural before.
In her heart, Qin Yize seemed so aloof that he didn’t appear human, so she hadn’t minded before.
But today, she couldn’t help but think a lot.
Standing at the door, Gu Qiaoqiao took a deep breath, her expression cold, and directly asked, “Where are my carving knife and stone?”
Qin Yize, who was leafing through a book in the living room, turned his head and swept his eyes over Gu Qiaoqiao, who seemed to have geared up in a moment.
He found it amusing.
Getting so defensive over a touch on the head?
He raised an eyebrow, his smile seemingly meaningful as he asked, “Gu Qiaoqiao, what are you afraid of?”
“What do I have to be afraid of?” Gu Qiaoqiao retorted.
“Good if you’re not afraid.” Qin Yize said, then he opened the large wardrobe, took out a box, carried it to Gu Qiaoqiao’s bedroom, and placed it on the desk.
Afterward, standing at the doorway, he lowered his gaze to look at Gu Qiaoqiao, who had followed him inside, and said softly, “Rest well today.”
“I’m fine.”
“We’ll be traveling far in a few days, and I don’t want you to be a burden.”
“If you’re worried, then I can just take the train myself,” Gu Qiaoqiao said, not minding at all.
“Gu Qiaoqiao, do you really have to oppose me?” Qin Yize asked, holding back his anger.
He was clearly being considerate, so why didn’t Gu Qiaoqiao appreciate it at all?
The phrase “turn one’s face and not recognize anyone” really suited her quite well.
Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback, Qin Yize wasn’t someone who usually cared about others.
Yet, his behavior today proved that he was indeed concerned about her.
Did she need it?
Apparently not!
Hesitating for a moment, she spoke quietly with her head down, “I hope you remember what I told you that day.”
“What if I say I forgot?”
“Then I don’t mind repeating it.”
“Go ahead and repeat it then,” said Qin Yize as he settled into a chair, raised his eyes to meet hers, and watched Gu Qiaoqiao intently with a deep voice, “Go on.”
How should she say this?
Gu Qiaoqiao was somewhat annoyed.
The air in the room suddenly felt eerie.
Qin Yize noticed the fine beads of sweat on Gu Qiaoqiao’s nose.
His heart stirred, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he asked, puzzled, “Isn’t it just that you really want to divorce me and that we have no future? But Gu Qiaoqiao, how is that related to you resting well?”
“It’s not related, but…”
“But what?” Qin Yize asked calmly.
Gu Qiaoqiao furrowed her brows, looked at Qin Yize who was sitting on the chair, and said resentfully, “I want to take a nap.”
This was possible.
Qin Yize got up and walked away.
In the following days, Qin Yize disappeared again.
And after Gu Qiaoqiao had carved all the stones in her possession, she began packing them.
Visiting the Qin Family in the Imperial Capital was still inevitable on this trip.
After all, she and Qin Yize were still not divorced, so staying in a hotel was definitely not feasible.
Moreover, she wasn’t sure if it would be okay to see Old Patriarch Gu.
Thus, it was uncertain how many days she would actually spend in the Imperial Capital.
What comes around goes around.
She carved a peace charm for Mr. Qin, Mother Qin, and Qin Xiaoyu.
Whether they liked it or not, her intention was clear.
All twelve pieces of Gold Jade Stone were carved.
There were designs of lush green bamboo, little bridges over flowing water, and even galloping horses…
Gu Qiaoqiao took out the Rising Sun. The stone might have been worthless before it was opened.
But now that it was opened and carved into a masterpiece,
it was incomparable to its previous self.
She planned to give this to Qin Yize, since he was the one who found and brought back the stone.
She couldn’t keep it all to herself.
She also knew that Qin Yize didn’t really keep the stone with the gold nugget in mind besides admiring her craftsmanship, nothing else.
Gu Qiaoqiao also finished packing her own luggage.
Now she was just waiting for Qin Yize to come back.
Recently, Gu Qiaoqiao’s mood had been good.
Everything was ready—except for the opportune moment.
She wanted to visit Grandma Yu before leaving.
However, going out was not easy.
She went to find Du Shuang, and then the two of them went to the base’s logistics department, just as a vehicle happened to be heading to the county town for errands.
But unexpectedly, Choo Lan was sitting inside.
