So from the very beginning when he made the choice, perhaps he was wrong, but he had no way out. He truly didn’t know how to face it, he could only escape, yet even during those years he tried to escape, he never truly felt relaxed...
And now, nothing can be changed, everything cannot start over again.
In Han Si Que’s heart, it feels like there’s a stone that grows with time. The longer time passes, the bigger and heavier that stone becomes, until one day, it truly suffocates him.
Han Si Que looks up at the already gradually blue sky, yet he feels no brightness at all, instead it feels gloomy, like a storm is brewing, overwhelming him.
The sunshine in his life seemed to have completely vanished many years ago. From the day Su Yaogeng no longer smiled at him, he had lost all joy in this lifetime.
Han Si Que’s eyes feel somewhat sore, he doesn’t know if it’s due to fatigue, or pain.
After Han Si Que leaves the room, Mrs. Qin stands up wanting to chase after him, but she accidentally steps on her skirt, falling to the ground...
Was it wrong for her to wish for too much? A divorce paper, these four words, fell coldly upon her heart, making her feel as if the entire world collapsed at that moment.
She confronted him with the hope that he would consider their marital ties, hoping he would give her, and Duke Wei Mansion, some face considering their many years together as husband and wife. After all, the future is long, her children still need to establish themselves in Capital City. If he always remains so inconsiderate, how will outsiders discuss Duke Wei Mansion’s absurd and chaotic relationship!
She has always been a reasonable person, if it weren’t for this time when he truly went too far, how could she possibly confront him? He neglected her for so many years, while she diligently managed the household and took care of the family. She merely spoke a few truths to him, she only expressed the words that had been stifled in her heart for many years, yet he actually said he would give her a divorce paper...
At her age, receiving a divorce paper again, how could she face living on?
Mrs. Qin reaches out to cover her heart, she never knew that when heartache was severe, it actually felt like this...

Han Jing slept through until afternoon, Su Xingyan had already sent someone over three times, but they were all turned away.
Once Su Xingyan returned, he immediately summoned the Imperial Physician to check his injury. What the Imperial Physician said was basically the same as what Yun Feng said, his injuries were indeed not light, and he had caught a cold, requiring proper care for a period before recovery. However, the Imperial Physician didn’t make it sound as serious as Yun Feng did, saying that with proper care, he could recover within a month.
Su Xingyan couldn’t help but lean toward Yun Feng’s opinion. How could his injuries recover so quickly? Most likely the Imperial Physician was trying to reassure him by deliberately downplaying the severity.
Having experienced the feeling of standing at the edge of death, Su Xingyan still instinctively fears it now. He wishes he could recover immediately. Such a weak state leaves him feeling very insecure...
Han Jing heard that Su Xingyan sent someone to look for her several times, she certainly knows what he’s looking for. However, right now she has an even more important thing to do.
Yesterday she told Su Xingyan, today they would call off the engagement, whoever doesn’t call it off is a damned idiot!
