Shi Mei tilted her head and blinked, "And what about you?"
Shi Lingyan’s lips curled into an imperceptible tenderness, "I will also have my own life in the future, and I will have my lover."
"You will continue to grow up and then find a man who cherishes you."
The smile faded from Shi Mei’s face, and her brows furrowed, "I don’t want that."
Shi Lingyan’s eyes deepened as he quickly said, "We need to change our way of life."
"I don’t want to be apart from you," Shi Mei pouted, hugging him like a bear with all her limbs, "Dear husband, please don’t abandon me!"
"I am not abandoning you," Shi Lingyan replied helplessly, "You can continue to live at home and go on living with Grandpa and Grandma."
"But what about you?"
"I am going to move out."
"Move out and live with another woman?" Tears suddenly fell from Shi Mei’s eyes, "Is it Tang Wu? Everyone says that you were hurt because of Senior Sister and Tang Wu. Did you abandon me for them? I don’t want you to move out!"
"It’s not them," Shi Lingyan pushed her away slightly, "It’s her."
When he spoke of her, there was a gentleness in his eyes that had never been there before.
Shi Mei felt a twinge in her heart.
He always had this ability.
Whenever he talked about Tang Wu, he gave people the illusion that he deeply loved Tang Wu.
If she hadn’t seen with her own eyes how he had shot at her, seen his indifference towards her, and seen through all their plans, she might have been fooled by the facade he worked so hard to create.
"Then we don’t have to get divorced," Shi Mei said, looking down with a saddened expression, "I’ve known for some time that you wanted to divorce me."
Shi Lingyan was silent.
Indeed, he had already prepared her psychologically.
He just needed to find the right moment to pierce the thin veil.
From his observations over time, he realized that Shi Mei wasn’t as ignorant as she seemed.
She understood a lot of things but chose not to spell them out.
She still acted foolish, so foolish that it was hard for others to burst her bubble.
But there always comes a day when, no matter how good an act is, it must be exposed.
Her inner strength was much greater than he had imagined.
"I also know that you gave me a lot of things," Shi Mei raised her head, "I can give up these things, you know. You can give them to them, and then I can wait at home for you to return. That way, you can keep your primary flag flying at home while having colorful flags fluttering outside."
Shi Lingyan, "... Who taught you to say that?"
"That’s just how it is, isn’t it? Men are fickle. Keeping one at home, many on the outside. As long as the wife at home pretends to know nothing, we can share a joyful tomorrow." Shi Mei was dead serious, "Don’t worry, I’m magnanimous. I can let other women enter our home, then each morning they can greet me, pour tea, carry water, hehehe..."
Shi Lingyan, "... Watch fewer palace dramas."
"Wow, how did you know I was watching palace dramas?" Shi Mei exclaimed with some excitement, "I want to be the Empress, the Empress is so beautiful, and she can make everyone kneel before me. Would you please be the Emperor, my husband?"
Taking out the document he had prepared long ago, Shi Lingyan said, "Sign here."
Shi Mei’s smile froze, and inexplicably, she felt a bit sad.
It was the "Divorce Agreement."
"I must go out and embrace life (Even if my reasoning isn’t strong, my will is)"
