This was incredibly embarrassing for her; she felt her dignity had been trampled upon—her husband had actually fallen for another woman and was even boasting about how much he liked her.

What did he take her for?!

"Do you even remember that we're husband and wife?!"

“We’re already divorced. Besides, you think it’s rare for me to fall in love with another woman while I was married?” Shen Dingkun retorted. “Do you know how many people in the world cheat? How many people just make do after the love fades? Many people never experience love in their lives and marry for the sake of marriage. You’re lucky—at least you’ve had love. I gave you complete love, and we even made it work—we got married and had children.”

“I’ve done everything I could for you. You still have assets, so why are you so hung up on this? Let me tell you, marriage is just a piece of paper for people like us. It can’t be an absolute bond, and I can’t change my attitude towards you completely because of marriage. Marriage has only strengthened my sense of responsibility, and if I were to fall for another woman, I wouldn’t pretend.”

"So, as you can see, I've fallen for someone else. My love for you has faded step by step, while my sense of responsibility for my family has increased step by step. I knew then that my love had disappeared. Later, the more I looked at Jiang Tian, ​​the more interesting I found her—she really has a strong personality and is very unpredictable. That's the kind of woman I like. You've always known that."

Zhao Mingyao suddenly realized that this man had no intention of acting at all.

These words were like slaps to her face.

Her voice trembled as she asked, "Aren't you afraid I'll record this?"

“You won’t record it because you’re afraid of losing face,” Shen Dingkun said calmly. “Your husband’s infidelity won’t bring you any benefits. You can still get the property now, so you shouldn’t do anything reckless.”

When the topic of wealth came up, Shen Dingkun couldn't help but say a few more words to Zhao Mingyao: "I've already planned to give you that wealth on an annual basis because your self-control is too poor. Since we got married, I've seen how out of control your spending has become—you have such a poor understanding of yourself. If I were you, I couldn't possibly be so carefree when I'm being supported by someone else. Go look at your savings, how much money do you have? Actually, not much at all."

"You've spent all your money on jewelry and some inexplicable luxury items—these things depreciate, and some don't even sell. You're not suited for investing. You can't raise the children well, and you don't even do housework; you just play around at home. I need you to provide emotional support, but you haven't done that either. All of this has destined our marriage to collapse one day. Even if I don't have feelings for Jiang Tian, ​​as long as I realize I'm constantly being taken advantage of, I'll choose to leave. While I'm still treating you fairly well, don't push your luck any further."

Zhao Mingyao was speechless.

She truly discovered another side of her husband.

It turns out that after stripping away the disguise of love, her husband was nothing more than a so-called man—he would calculate, he would weigh who gave more and who gave less.

He was like a sophisticated machine, constantly adding and subtracting from their marriage, while she remained like a fool, indulging in the illusion of love, believing she had married a perfect man, feeling smug and thinking they would grow old together.

Now she finally understands her husband's words—when you think you're getting a good deal, the other person may also feel like they're losing out.

Just like her husband, he remembers so clearly the things he suffered losses.

If his efforts go unrewarded, he'll eventually flip the table.

"So, I gave birth to two children for you, and it means nothing to you, right?" Zhao Mingyao asked.

Shen Dingkun was determined to teach Zhao Mingyao a lesson. His expression remained unchanged: "Go ask other men. Many men don't take women's childbirth seriously at all. I donated a million yuan for your childbirth. Go ask other men, how many of them would donate money? In their eyes, it's their duty to have wives carry on their family line. Isn't that what they marry women for? I don't need to spell it out, right? Men understand, women understand, we both know it, that's why we get married—"

"In their eyes, having children is a woman's inherent value. If you want to find a man who cherishes you, then you've already found him. I do cherish you to some extent, but... I still have to remind you that some of that cherishing is just an act. When it comes to real benefits, not many people will be as generous as I am."

Zhao Mingyao's face turned pale.

Shen Dingkun remained unmoved.

Once he decided to end the marriage, Shen Dingkun had no more regrets.

He viewed his wife as if she were a foolish woman, so out of consideration for their past relationship, he was willing to give this foolish woman some guidance so that she could understand where she went wrong and move on to the next stage of her life.

Zhao Mingyao was completely speechless—is this what life is like? It's too funny.

The beautiful dream she had been anticipating turned out to be nothing more than a Mary Sue fantasy.

In fact, her husband was also secretly scheming and weighing whether their marriage should continue.

When the scales were completely broken, he filed for divorce.

She thought that she had indeed had a good life these past few years, so the divorce was a good outcome, at least she got a share of the property...

But even as she thought this, tears were already streaming down her face.

At this moment, Zhao Mingyao finally stopped hating Jiang Tian.
