Yu Jin seemed not to hear my words at all, continuously repeating in his mouth: You vicious woman.
“Vicious? When it came to the child, I begged and pleaded back then, yet you didn’t hesitate for even a moment to act! He is your own son!”
“That kind of wretched child would be a curse even if born!”
Yu Jin’s words felt like they were destroying my reason.
“If you don’t want to believe, why must you let him die? If you won’t believe he’s your child, then let him be mine, my own child. Is that not possible? Why do you have to be so cruel!”
“Hah, Meng Yanshuang, you’d better clear this up as soon as possible!” Yu Jin paid no attention to my words.
“And if I say no, what do you plan to do? You can’t do anything. Now the matter has spread online.” Since I had already taken action, I would never compromise easily.
Yu Jin’s response was something I had long anticipated.
“Meng Yanshuang, I know you want to take revenge on me, but you resort to such vile, despicable methods. You think I would regret it and beg you? Let me tell you! Impossible!”
After saying that, Yu Jin directly hung up the phone.
The ticking sound after the call ended made me feel utterly amused.
This Yu Jin is no longer the man I once knew!
Yu Guo’er returned home, looking at the furniture beside her—not luxurious, but complete and functional—and couldn’t help thinking of the modest place Meng Yanshuang had rented temporarily to avoid her in-laws.
“The Yu family really is shameless!” Yu Guo’er thought bitterly as she lay on her soft, comfortable large bed. At the same time, she quietly blamed herself for her impulsive temper. If she had listened to Meng Yanshuang’s explanation, Meng Yanshuang wouldn’t have been slapped by Yu Jin at the last gathering—she was still pregnant then. These days, I should visit her more often, Yu Guo’er silently planned, deciding to bring some supplements to properly nourish Meng Yanshuang.
“Tang Li…” Thinking of that tall, handsome man made Yu Guo’er’s cheeks flush and her heartbeat quicken. She covered her face with the blanket, feeling a little embarrassed, and went to sleep.
Sure enough, the next day Yu Guo’er hurried out to buy the supplements, then took a taxi to Meng Yanshuang’s place. Since Meng Yanshuang had recently moved out, her mind and body were not very stable, and Tang Li, caring for her, would definitely be at her home to stay with her.
When Yu Guo’er arrived at my current residence, I was sitting cross-legged on the bed, starting up my computer. Although the ugly faces of the Yu family and Fang Tian had already been exposed online, I still didn’t feel any relief in my heart. After all this time, everything I had experienced and suffered had exhausted me, both mentally and physically.
I just wanted to live a simple, peaceful life.
“Yanshuang, why are you only opening the door now?” Yu Guo’er’s lively voice pulled me back from my thoughts. Seeing it was her, a smile appeared on my face. Although we had only known each other a few days, I could sense that Yu Guo’er was straightforward, cheerful, and loyal. Talking to her made me feel an unprecedented sense of ease and comfort.
“Oh, well, when I got out of bed, I found a slipper hidden under the bed, so I had to look for it properly. That’s why I’m late,” I said lightly, joking with her.
“Um, is Tang Li here?” Yu Guo’er smiled slightly, not taking it too seriously, and glanced into the room before asking shyly.
Seeing her flushed cheeks, I immediately understood, so I gestured for her to come in while answering, “Tang Li said he has some work at the company this morning. He’ll only come around noon.”
“Today we’re in for a treat—Tang Li’s skills in the kitchen are beyond words.” I winked at Yu Guo’er, and just as expected, I saw her shyly lower her head and smile for a moment.
I went to get my computer and set it on the desk, also moving a chair for Yu Guo’er so she wouldn’t feel constrained. Then I sat in front of the computer, looking at the evidence I had recently exposed online—videos of domestic abuse and the Yu family, along with Fang Tian, coercing me to divorce.
