Chapter 501: Chapter 501: Unwilling to Accept This Chapter 501: Chapter 501: Unwilling to Accept This “Ding Min, I think you’ve misunderstood. All these years, I’ve always regarded you as a sister, just a relative’s child. I’ve never said anything that would make you misunderstand. Not before, and certainly not now. You should go back to your own life, finding a good man should be easy for you. Don’t fixate on something that’s not meant to be. I’m actually not as good as you think,” An Zhiyuan said patiently, trying to persuade her, knowing he couldn’t just throw her out.
Seeing his wife’s mocking smile as she looked at him sent a chill through his heart.
This spelled a reckoning come autumn.
His marital bliss.
“Big Brother An, I waited for you for so many years, and you say you think of me as a sister? Which brother’s sister would go out of her way to bring him cold medicine? Which brother’s sister would want to marry him? You understand my feelings, why would you treat me this way? What’s wrong with me? Compared to her, the only things I lack are being a doctor and standing by your side like she did. If I had been the one to go there, I could have stood by your side through life and death too. You can’t just dismiss everything because of that. What passed between us was a missed opportunity.
It’s all Aunt Wei’s fault. If she hadn’t insisted on transferring Bai Xiao there, none of what followed would have happened. I won’t accept this!”
Bai Xiao lowered her eyes, her smile turning into a smirk. This Ding Min was really quite the unhelpful teammate.
Wei Shufen’s face darkened as she scolded Ding Min sharply, “Xiaomin, what are you spouting nonsense about? Bai Xiao’s transfer was arranged by your uncle, if you don’t know, then don’t babble nonsense everywhere. And look at yourself, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Stop causing a scene here.” Her niece was simply not thinking straight. Love could really cloud a person’s judgment.
Ding Min had always been pampered by her family since childhood and had never failed to get what she wanted. Her frustration and anger were at boiling point.
“You always say I’m talking nonsense, but this woman is not a match for my Big Brother An.”
An Zhiyuan’s expression turned grim. This was not the first time she’d made such outrageous statements, insulting his wife. His face turned cold, “Ding Min, this is my wife. If I really took your words seriously, you could face legal consequences. I advise you to leave now, and stop saying anything to slander my wife; otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
Ding Min cried out loud, her sobs heart-wrenching. She had always believed she was meant to be An Zhiyuan’s wife, that this place should have been hers. But now everything had turned to smoke. All the tenderness and concern An Zhiyuan had were for that other woman. Look at how gently Big Brother An smiled at that woman, the lovey-dovey way they looked at each other, as if afraid others wouldn’t know they were husband and wife. All of this should have been hers.
It was supposed to be hers!
Ding Min, driven by fury, grabbed a fruit knife from the fruit plate on the table and charged at Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao had intended to keep a low profile; after all, what was a wife to say in such a situation?
She wasn’t skilled in dealing with such a childhood sweetheart, and An Zhiyuan was already speaking eloquent words of defense. It wasn’t her place to get angry.
Besides, it wasn’t the first time Ding Min had ranted at her; she decided to endure it.
After all, there was no need for her to confront the issue head-on; as long as it didn’t interfere with her own little life, Ding Min could rant as much as she pleased.
Who doesn’t have an admirer or two?
Who would have known that their family’s An—her husband, could attract admirers even better than she could.
