"Who made a fuss? Was it you making a fuss?" Shen Qiuyun took a deep breath, originally thinking she was happy. Though she married into the countryside, she lived in the county thanks to her family connections. Even the child she bore took her surname, and Xu Zhihao treated her exceptionally well.
However, what she witnessed with her own eyes yesterday hurt her deeply; she thought her loving and caring husband had an affair with another woman, naked together.
If it weren’t for the health bureau’s sudden inspection of the factory and their accidental discovery, she would have no idea how much longer she’d be kept in the dark.
The factory had been shut down, and her husband was with another woman; Shen Qiuyun felt complete despair.
Yesterday, Shen Qiuyun had made a big scene, nearly crying her eyes out. Xu Zhihao consoled her, blaming the other woman for seducing him and shifting all the blame onto her.
Shen Qiuyun thought of her son, just over a year old, who couldn’t just go without a father. Softened by Xu Zhihao’s sworn assurances, she gave in a little. But the arrival of her parents, and the news they brought, was like invisible slaps across her face, mocking her naivety!
Xu Zhihao, using his title as director, had relationships with three or four women in the factory. When faced with the reality, she remembered the times Xu Zhihao said he had to work overtime; back then, she felt sorry for his hard work, not realizing he was "working hard" on other women!
No wonder every time he came back from working overtime, Xu Zhihao would always go straight to shower and then to bed.
Shen Qiuyun was furious; she fought bitterly with Xu Zhihao, injuring his arm, and both of them ended up in the hospital, angry and inflamed.
Her parents were right; such a man was unreliable.
"Qiuyun, I was wrong, I truly was," Xu Zhihao said, not even caring about his injured arm. The news brought by his in-laws had stripped away his last shred of dignity—what if they really got a divorce?
"Don’t pull at my daughter," Shen’s dad forcefully pulled Shen Qiuyun behind him. He had just gotten the medicine and immediately stepped forward upon seeing Xu Zhihao’s entanglement and said, "If you’re not afraid of me exposing your shameful deeds, then keep blocking us!"
"I..." Xu Zhihao closed his mouth, pleadingly looking at Shen Qiuyun, saying, "Qiuyun, give me another chance."
Shen Qiuyun turned away sorrowfully and left with her father.
Xu Zhihao, unable to reconcile himself, followed after them, not noticing Xu Nianhua in the corner.
Xu Nianhua watched Xu Zhihao in shock, trying hard to recall what he was like in his past life, as if it were too long ago to remember clearly.
"Qiuyun, divorce or not, it’s your decision," as soon as Shen’s dad got home, he threw the two choices at Shen Qiuyun.
Shen Qiuyun, with her head down, heard a cry from inside the room, a struggle apparent in her eyes.
"He’s eaten from the Shen family, used the Shen family’s, lived in the Shen family’s house, and what about his whole family? When did you ever treat them unfairly during festivals and holidays? But how did he treat you?" Shen’s dad’s tone was biting, as he initially thought he was getting an honest man. Who would have thought he was such a shameless person!
"Qiuyun, listen to your dad, let’s get a divorce," Shen’s dad took a deep breath. Xu Zhihao dared to deceive them, having secret relations with three or four female workers, probably not just recently. After everything came to light, he blamed all the women, such a coward without any sense of responsibility, it was a mistake for him to consent to the marriage to his daughter.
