However, she was ultimately a fragile woman. How could she overpower me?!
With rage burning in my eyes, I ignored her protests and attacked her crazily!
F*ck! Did she treat herself as that old man’s wife?
Then I shall torture her properly in front of her ‘husband’—no, with him listening. I’ll let him hear how the woman he loved moaned while with another man!
Let me demonstrate to that old man with erectile dysfunction. I’ll show him that there was no way he could pleasure my wife to climax…
The battle didn’t end until the next morning.
My wife fell into a deep sleep with exhaustion and satisfaction. She didn’t wake up until nearly noon to make a call.
She then informed us about her purchase of the apartment that she had chosen. She said that the contract had been prepared and that we can go and take a look at the apartment.
She took action so quickly that I was caught off guard.
I had originally planned to go for the paternity test today and to bring up the divorce before she could buy a house. But now, it was too late.
All I could do was suppress my emotions as I drove my family to the district.
My wife probably thought that after last night’s passion, I had calmed down. So she had regained her usual attitude towards me and didn’t dwell on it.
She was probably a little excited about getting a new house, so her attitude towards me had improved instead.
On the way, my parents-in-law chatted excitedly behind me. It almost made me want to hit the accelerator and smash into the pavement!
“Our Qingqing is still the best! She can afford such a good school district!”
“Yeah, unlike some people who don’t have any capability at all. They’re already 30 years old but they have nothing to their name. They only earn a few thousand yuan every month and go to work without any future.”
“Sigh, back then, it was really like a fresh flower stuck in cow dung. I really don’t know why I was blind to agree to Qingqing marrying such a useless bum!”
My expression was grim and my lips were pressed tightly. My hands were clutching the steering wheel.
My wife acted as if she hadn’t heard the two of them. She hugged Qiqi and teased him.
Or perhaps she was deliberately allowing the two of them to insult me?
Forget it, I’ll endure it!
After I’ve done the paternity test and confirmed that Qiqi wasn’t my son, I’ll settle the score with her!
The district that my wife had chosen was named Magnificent Coast, which was a high-end condominium district.
When I arrived at the destination, I was about to drive towards the main entrance of the estate when I saw the words on the wall outside—Splendid Sun’s Magnificent Coast!
This district was actually developed by the real estate company that Vice President Lu was working at?!
“Wow, this neighborhood is so exclusive. It’s much better than our run-down neighborhood!” My mother-in-law exclaimed from behind.
I fought to keep my anger in check as I continued to drive.
I had to bear with it!
When we finally reached our destination, the sales representative was already there. He was very friendly and eager. “Miss Yu, welcome! Come, this way, please. Be careful, there’s a small stone here. Don’t trip…”
He completely ignored my existence!
My parents-in-law held Qiqi’s hands and led him inside.
After they left me behind, I parked the car and trailed after them with a grim expression.
Was it possible that this sales representative was sent by that bald old man to mock me?
Was that why he was so enthusiastic towards my wife and completely ignored me?
At four in the afternoon, I was alone. I leaned against the car, smoking and staring at the sky with a heavy heart.
My only true companion was the car behind me.
It wasn’t a good car, but it never complained or looked down on me!
The sales representative had prepared a perfect reception.
He had even prepared a sumptuous lunch. He even considered the fact that Qiqi was sick and couldn’t eat certain food!
Every factor was taken into consideration, except for me!
Instead, he had arranged many dishes that I hated.
I had no more doubts now. That old man must have planned this!
During the contract discussion in the afternoon, it was even more unbearable. He asked my wife everything and ignored my existence completely.
It was as if I was air!
In the end, I couldn’t take it anymore. I found an excuse and slipped away.
Of course, I believed that even if I didn’t find an excuse to leave, they wouldn’t even realize that I wasn’t inside.
They might even be hoping that I would leave!
I looked at the clear blue sky and smiled bitterly.
I was a piece of trash!
My phone suddenly rang.
I pulled out my phone and saw my mother’s name on the screen. Suddenly, I burst into tears.
“Hello? Son, why haven’t you called back for so long? Are you very busy? Don’t neglect your health. Earning money is important, but your health is more important! You have to be more concerned about Yu Qing. She is your wife…”
Over the phone, my mother rattled on as usual.
I listened silently with tears streaming down my face.
All this time, I was afraid that my parents would be worried, so I didn’t say a word.
I only assured them that everything was fine.
I know. They’re honest, simple people who weren’t that expressive with their love.
However, I came from my hometown, and I was able to establish my roots in such a huge city. My career can be considered to be successful. I bought a house, married a beautiful wife, and had a cute son. I was already their pride!
I might not be able to bring honor to our ancestors.
But I made them proud!
But if they knew that I had already ended up in this current state, how sad would they be!
Endless bitterness attacked my nerves.
After a long while, my mother finally asked, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Do you think that I’m too long-winded?”
My lips trembled as I finally blurted, “Mom, I can’t live anymore… I might… be getting a divorce…”
An explosion instantly sounded from the other end. “What!”
After the call, I leaned against the car and squatted down, crying.
Over the phone, I still didn’t dare to tell the truth.
The truth that would break them!
I only said that there were problems in my marriage. My mother tried her best to advise me.
In the end, I promised her that I wouldn’t let my imagination run wild before I hung up.
I was the only one who knew the entire truth!
Not far away, sounds of people walking past could be heard.
“What happened to this man?”
“Who knew that a grown man would cry in public? How useless!”
“What do you know? If a man isn’t in agony, why would he cry in public?”
“That’s why men like you have to suffer for your pride. You only dare to cry when you’re at your wits’ end!”
Ignoring them, I grabbed my phone and scrolled through the photos in my phone.
I kept changing my phone, and every time I did, I would copy the photos over to my new phone.
These photos were the complete memory of my wife and me after knowing each other for so many years!
From getting to know each other, to being in love, to getting married, to having a child…
Every memory was what I cherished dearly!
But now, all of these memories were like poison that kept attacking my heart!
Every smile, every hug, and every kiss was no longer happiness and beauty.
It was the catalyst for sadness!
“Eh? Hubby! Why are you crying here? Get in the car! It’s so embarrassing!” A voice suddenly sounded.
It was my wife!
“Leave me alone!” I cried desperately.
“You… Hubby, stop throwing a tantrum. Get in the car, all right? Listen to me…” My wife held a thick folder and looked around at the people around her uneasily. She dragged and pulled me up, before she opened the door, and shoved me in.
I sat weakly in the back seat, leaning against the closed door. Tears streamed down my face.
My wife followed suit and closed the door. She chided, “We just bought a house. Why are you crying?! Stop crying. Come, let me show you your gift. Guess what my gift is?”
I ignored her and leaned against the window, staring blankly ahead.
My wife clearly didn’t know what to do with me. She said, “This is the most expensive gift I’ve ever given you! The new house will be under both of our names! The relevant documents for the house are here. Take a look.”
Despite my sadness, I couldn’t help but be taken aback. Finally, I turned to look at her.
With a sweet smile, my wife wiped the tears from my face. She poked her head over and kissed me hard on the lips. “We can finally live in a big house in the future! That apartment will be our love nest in the future. It represents our brighter future! Come, be good, and don’t cry. I came out especially to tell you this good news. Don’t ruin the mood!”
I stared at her coldly.
She wasn’t such a thoughtful person!
She knew that it didn’t matter if my name was included or not. That was why she wanted to use such a tactic that didn’t require much money to fool me!
Seeing that I wasn’t excited or happy, her eyes darted around. She suddenly put down the documents in her hand and took out a bank card from her wallet.
It was another bank card that I’ve never seen before!
However, this time, she handed it to me and said softly, “Stop crying, okay? I know that I’ve been feeling upset lately and my attitude towards you has been bad. But I really only have you in my heart. You were short on money recently, right? Your parents aren’t doing too well, and they need to spend a lot of money to treat their illnesses. Zhang Yue needs to take the graduate entrance examination, and Xiao Yun has just graduated. She hasn’t even found a job yet, and she needs money too. Take this card. There’s three hundred thousand yuan inside. You can use it as you wish. You don’t need to update me on how you’re going to use the money.”
