Chapter 198: 202 We are going to Separate

202 We are going to Separate

Lu Jiao silently denied the idea right away. However, she didn’t show it. She smiled at the four little ones and said, “Though your dad can walk again, he’s not fully healed. It’ll take some time.”

The four little ones believed her easily.

The fact that Xie Yunjin walked today very much overjoyed the four little ones. Too happy to function, they quickly ran away again to play with Soot and Marble.

Lu Jiao brought breakfast into the living room.

Inside the east bedroom, Xie Yunjin wasn’t resting in bed. Instead, he sat before the desk. This time, for the first time, he sat in a chair rather than in a wheelchair. He called out, “Lu Jiao.”

Lu Jiao thought he needed something and went inside.

Xie Yunjin stared at Lu Jiao with a huge smile, very different from the calm and aloof face he showed the villagers earlier.

He was so so happy and excited to walk again and he wanted to tell someone. However, he didn’t want that someone to be anyone but Lu Jiao.

“Lu Jiao, I can walk again.”

Lu Jiao knew why he was this excited. To a person who once truly believed that he would spend the rest of his life bedridden, walking again might be the best thing that could happen to them.

Xie Yunjin was over the moon. Lu Jiao smiled at him, “Congratulations on being able to walk again. However, don’t be too impatient. Take it slow.”

Xie Yunjin’s eyes brightened at her words.

He slowly stood up by his desk. His slender and straight frame made him seem like a pine tree. Though he wore a simple white robe, his graceful and elegant demeanor was overflowing.

Lu Jiao couldn’t help but spend a few minutes looking at him. Not only did this man have a good-looking face, but he also had a nice silhouette. In this day and age, due to poor nutrition, most people were short. However, Xie Laogen was rather tall. Perhaps it was genetics.

Lu Jiao grinned and said, “Breakfast is ready. Come and eat.”

She then turned around. Behind her, Xie Yunjin followed closely and ended up grabbing her hand.

Lu Jiao was a little stunned and froze in place. The man behind her suddenly pulled her into his arms.

Lu Jiao was in shock and didn’t know how to react. What was happening? Was he so excited that he decided to give her a hug? No way. That wasn’t the appropriate reaction.

Lu Jiao pushed Xie Yunjin away. Though Xie Yunjin was a man, Lu Jiao was strong and easily got out of his grasp.

Xie Yunjin stepped back but took Lu Jiao’s hands. Still beaming in the most gentle manner, he asked, “What is it? Are you being shy?”

His response confirmed Lu Jiao’s suspicion that something between them went wrong. Truly.

The way this man talked to her now was in a tone that husbands used to talk to their wives. It wasn’t at all the tone used toward someone who will soon leave.

Lu Jiao’s expression changed a little. She let go of Xie Yunjin’s hands and inquired in a serious manner, “Xe Yunjin, what do you think you are doing?”

Xie Yunjin was a little surprised at the sincerity in her voice. However, he still mildly reminded, “We are married. We will have to come in contact sooner or later.”

Lu Jiao couldn’t help but point out, “But we are going to separate! How inappropriate is it to hug someone you’re going to divorce?”

It was Xie Yunjin’s turn to be stunned. He thought he heard it wrong, “What did you say?”

Lu Jiao bluntly repeated herself, “Didn’t we agree on this already? I find you a doctor who can heal your legs and we’d separate after you’re well again. Now that your legs have healed, we can separate.”

Xie Yunjin’s face dropped and the air around him quickly turned cold. All the warmth and excitement on his face evaporated. He stared at Lu Jiao and said, “Didn’t we agree to not separate?”

Lu Jiao was astounded, “When did we say that?”

Xie Yunjin’s mind buzzed and his head hurt. Bleakness filled his heart.

“Last time, I said to you, children shouldn’t grow up without a mother and you said you understood what I implied.”

The realization hit Lu Jiao hard. So he said all those things to tell her he didn’t want to separate anymore? Oh my god, she thought he wanted to give her custody of the children.

“Can’t you just say the words so it’s clear? I thought that conversation was to tell me that you’re giving the four little ones to raise on my own. I didn’t even think that it was about our separation.”

Xie Yunjin felt so cold when he heard Lu Jiao’s words. However, he played it cool and tried again, “Then, do you understand what I meant now? Let’s not separate. During the time I was bedridden, you genuinely cared for me and the four little ones. I appreciate your sincerity and I want to repay you.”

Xie Yunjin’s dark eyes were fixated on Lu Jiao.

He was terrified that Lu Jiao would reject him.

Because this woman’s internal dialogues appeared to be vastly different from what he expected.

Lu Jiao listened to him closely and suddenly remembered the time she jokingly asked Xie Yunjin if he liked her.

If Xie Yunjin liked her, she would’ve been grateful for how he felt toward her. But this man said he didn’t like her, yet he asked her to stay. Did he think of her as a nanny?

Lu Jiao wanted to curse at him.

Her own face turned cold and she stared back at him, “You seem to think that not separating from me is doing me a favor. I’m sorry, I don’t see it that way. Please grant me a divorce letter as we agreed before.”

Xie Yunjin looked ill at this point. The hard-to-swallow emotions overfilled him.

He looked at Lu Jiao and enunciated every word as he spoke, “Lu Jiao, do you know how hard life is for a divorced woman?”

This woman was not the original Lu Jiao. She might not be aware of how hard life can get here. She would be the conversational topic no matter where she went. People would take advantage of her and curse her all her life. Did she know all that?

Lu Jiao answered coolly, “I know.”

Even in the modern era, life was hard for divorced women.

“No matter how difficult it may get, it passes.”

Xie Yunjin looked at her in disbelief, “Then why must you demand a divorce? If you know life will be hard, why do you still choose that path? I don’t understand what you’re thinking.”

Lu Jiao raised an eyebrow. It was because she wanted a life of her own. Perhaps in the future, she would find herself someone who truly connected with her.

She wasn’t willing to sacrifice her entire life for the four little ones.

She was sorry, but she just couldn’t do it. Though she really liked the children, she wasn’t at the point where she was okay with giving up her entire life.

Lu Jiao said to Xie Yunjin, “Let’s not talk about this more and just do as we agreed. We said we would separate once your legs healed. Of course, if you’re willing, you can give me the divorce letter right now. I don’t mind.”
