Ex-Husband, Please Let Go

For two years of their hidden marriage, Ji Shuyu poured all her love into Gu Xiuyuan. She thought she could finally enter his heart, but it couldn't stand against the return of his old flame.

Chapter 32 Humiliation

Give each other a good time?

Seeing her tired yet serious expression, Gu Xiuyuan clenched his hands. "I said..."

"Stop talking about things you don't want to talk about," Ji Shuyu interrupted quietly. "Gu Xiuyuan, I'm not discussing this with you, nor am I waiting for your consent."

"Ji Shuyu." Gu Xiuyuan stared at her calmly and seriously. "I said I won't talk about this topic anymore."

Oh, he doesn't want to talk again...

"If you don't want to talk, can't I tell you?" Ji Shuyu looked at him with amusement. "Or, why don't you talk to me?"

"Xiao Yu." He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Just listen to me, okay?"

"No more." She shook her head quietly.

In order to calm herself down, she almost used up all her strength to restrain herself, but she knew she couldn't hold on for much longer.

She has really been embarrassed enough during this period of time.

Her last bit of dignity was trampled into pieces today in the hospital and in front of Su Yan. She couldn't let her ridiculous self become even more pitiful...

"Get a divorce and do what you want."

"If you love Su Yan so much, shouldn't you guarantee absolute loyalty?" she asked. "Even if you can't give her a name, at least you should make your feelings clear, instead of saying you love her while... "

Ji Shuyu said this and suddenly paused.

She clenched her fists tightly, and the gauze was slowly soaked with blood.

All that close and intense time now seemed to overshadow his efforts for Su Yan.

She was trembling, tears welling in her eyes.

It's really... so humiliating.

When she thought about Xia Mei saying that he promised to have a child as soon as possible, and when she thought about their intimacy in the past two days, she felt as sick as if she had swallowed a fly.

She raised her hand and wiped her lips vigorously, as if this could erase the traces of her impulse to kiss him.

"Ji Shuyu." Gu Xiuyuan grabbed her wrist and stopped her from abusing his lips.

This was her reaction at the hospital today. What on earth was she doing...

Ji Shuyu felt a little pain from being grabbed.

The hand that once gave her hope and warmth now gives her nothing but hurt.

"I'm done, think about it carefully!"

With tears falling, she quickly turned and went upstairs.

Gu Xiuyuan rubbed his brows tiredly. When he sat down, he saw the tie on the coffee table.

This is not his, Gu Xiuyuan reached out and took it.

The bloodstains on the tie were particularly glaring, and the silver H on it was the He family's logo...

Ji Shuyu locked herself in the guest room, filled the bathtub with water, and then soaked herself in it.

Those intoxicating breaths and his promises to Xia Mei were entangled together, like a sword, piercing her heart directly.

Just today, just a few hours ago, she was still moved by his words, 'You are still young, we are not in a hurry'.

He never took any precautions, and she thought... he was also looking forward to having a baby, so she cooperated with the examinations and drank bowl after bowl of medicine under the supervision of Aunt Xia Mei.

She closed her eyes in pain, unwilling to recall those unbearable things.

Ji Shuyu, you brought this upon yourself. Who asked you to be so... cheap?

It was completely dark outside the window, and the thick clouds pressed down, so heavy that it was depressing.

Gu Xiuyuan smoked several cigarettes in a row in the study before he calmed down.

He felt that he should give her an explanation for today's situation, so he quickly took a shower, but there was no sign of Ji Shuyu in the study or the guest bedroom.

"Xiao Yu?" He looked around but couldn't see her, so he hurried downstairs.

He called out several times but received no response. Just as he was about to go out, he heard faint noises coming from the kitchen.

There was no light on in the living room, only the light coming in from outside, and he walked over slowly. "Xiaoyu?

He called out, but still no response.

He walked over and turned on the light, and the scene before him frightened him so much that his heart skipped a beat...

In the kitchen, Ji Shuyu held a handful of fruit in her hand, blood trickling down her forearm, staining her dark-colored pajamas...

Gu Xiuyuan's head buzzed.

"Xiao Yu!!" he yelled, rushing forward and grabbing her wrist.

Ji Shuyu looked at his excited expression calmly, "What are you doing?"

She struggled weakly against him and continued her movements.

She reached out and took out the Chinese medicine from the sink, punctured the packaging, and then forcefully squeezed out the brown liquid...

The medicines were washed away by the running water, but the kitchen was filled with the pungent smell of medicine.

"Why are you scaring me like this? You don't think I'm going to commit suicide, do you?" She laughed, as if mocking him for being unworthy.

"What is this?" Gu Xiuyuan's voice trembled slightly.

"It's for infertility treatment." She answered with a relaxed air, even a smile. "I've been drinking it for over a year..."

She tilted her head and looked at the medicine with a smile. After squeezing out all the liquid in the package, tears finally fell from her eyes.

What? !

Gu Xiuyuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat...

"Xiao Yu?"

"If you don't want it, why don't you just say it?" Her voice was soft and trembling. "You could just say 'I don't want you to have my child' instead of just watching me foolishly expect and fantasize..."

Gu Xiuyuan felt a tightness in his chest and was speechless for a moment. He wanted to wipe away her tears, but he couldn't lift his arms.

"Last time we went to the hospital for a checkup, you already knew the answer in your mind! You knew there was no way I could be pregnant."

"But you still agreed to accompany me to the checkup, and you looked at me with such joy." Ji Shuyu thought she was calm, but her voice was shaking. "When you saw me so nervous I kept running to the bathroom, didn't you feel like you were laughing at me?"

She turned around and looked at him with a smile!

"I didn't." Gu Xiuyuan denied solemnly.

The deep pain in her eyes was like a hand, tightly grasping his heart...

"You already knew it," she said firmly. "So you didn't tell me because you wanted to see if I was playing tricks again, or did you want to temporarily appease your parents and protect your Su Yan?"

"Xiaoyu, that's enough."

"You know your mother wants to have a child in order to cut off your chances, so you're pretending to obey her while secretly disobeying her. You're using contraception while... trying hard?"

Oh……

She suddenly smiled, then dropped the bottle in her hand, turned around and looked at him with her arms folded.

"Does Su Yan know that you've sacrificed so much for her?" She looked at Gu Xiuyuan with amusement. "Mr. Gu, sleeping with someone for love... it's truly a moving act."

“Ji Shuyu!!”

This sentence angered Gu Xiuyuan, and he grabbed her wrist.

The shaking movement shook the tears from her eyes. She looked like she was in great pain, and her eyelashes were trembling.

"Am I wrong?" She twisted her wrist, breaking free from his grasp. "Before, your mother pushed you to give birth, wanting to cut off your chances of survival. You didn't want to have a baby, so you secretly used contraception. Now, for Su Yan, you're thinking about it again, but...what did I do wrong?" Her voice trembled. "Why should I be humiliated by you like this?"

“…”

"Gu Xiuyuan, I want a divorce. I don't want to wait even a second longer."

As soon as she finished speaking, a cry of surprise came from the living room: Old lady...
