He took her into the house and arranged for her to sit at the table. Sun Ling took out an abacus from the cabinet, limped back to the table and sat down.

The abacus beads clattered up and down, making a pleasant sound. Sun Ling placed the abacus in front of her and asked her, "Do you want to learn the basics, or do you want to master it?"

Not knowing how to start explaining his purpose, Tang Huan said for the time being: "Let's learn the basics first. I have never used an abacus before."

"Yeah." Sun Ling pointed at the abacus and began to explain to Tang Huan what the upper and lower beads represented.

Sometimes when I speak too fast, I may pull the wound on my face, so I have to stop for a few seconds to rest.

Tang Huan took note of it carefully. This was an excuse she made up, and she was also really curious.

After finishing the story, Sun Ling asked Tang Huan to identify them, and Tang Huan pointed them out to her one by one.

After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever thought about divorce?"

No matter what, divorce is the best solution.

Sun Ling took his fingers off the abacus and placed them on the table. He couldn't bring himself to say what he wanted to say, and finally shook his head in silence.

Divorce is not easy. She is a homeless person. Where can she go after the divorce?

What should the children do?

There was a sense of oppression about her, and Tang Huan always felt that she was about to be crushed. "Then why don't you try to resist? I'll learn some moves from Captain Meng and then teach you, okay?"

Tang Huan was not the first person to ask her for a divorce. There were a few kind-hearted neighbors who advised her to divorce.

But she was the first one to tell her to learn some techniques to fight back.

Moisture gathered in Sun Ling's eyes, the corners of her mouth curled up a little, and a hint of smile appeared on her numb face.

She said, "Can you fight three at once?"

One against three? One against three!!

Do they as a family beat a woman?

The feeling of being powerless was not pleasant at all. Tang Huan looked at her, his eyes red as he shook his head slightly.

It's not easy for a lesbian to fight one on her own, let alone three on her own.

Tang Huan wanted her to learn to resist because he saw that her husband was not strong.

How could three people possibly defeat him?

Sun Ling looked down at his fingers, took a few breaths, and then said softly, "Then I won't learn it. It's useless even if I learn it."

Her voice was so soft that it broke into pieces when it reached Tang Huan's ears.

Tang Huan only then realized how fantastic her fantasy was last night. She wanted to help her and save her, but it was all just a fantasy.

"I'm sorry." She thought she could help her.

Sun Ling took the abacus from Tang Huan and moved the messed-up beads back with her fingers.

"Why apologize? You and Captain Meng are both good people. I should be thanking you."

But she was beyond saving.

She thought about the man she saw pushing her when they left yesterday, and then looked at the injuries on her body.

Tang Huan had some suspicions. "Did you take Meng Zeyan's money yesterday, and that's why he beat you?"

As if wondering why Tang Huan had such an idea, Sun Ling turned to look at her and shook her head.

"No. I was able to stand and open the door today because he showed mercy for Captain Meng's sake."

Usually after being beaten she would have to stay in bed for a whole day.

There are not so many reasons for Wu Yong to beat people. Sometimes the food being too salty can be an excuse.

Sun Ling hadn't chatted with anyone for a long time, and she told Tang Huan a lot about herself.

Her mother's family, her husband's family, her children's...

She spoke calmly, as if she was telling someone else's story, and only when she mentioned her children did her tone show more emotion.

She said she would just endure the child, and when the child grows up she will be free. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
