Xu Xiaoyue's question left Liu Yuliang speechless once again.
Liu Yuliang knew what the problem was. He remained silent for a long time before saying, "I've already talked to my dad and bought the tickets. My dad said he's taking my mom back to our hometown."
The passing of the two elderly people is one way to solve the problem, but it's not a panacea.
Liu Yuliang's mother was not uneducated; she had a retirement pension. Moreover, Liu Yuliang's father's words didn't have much effect on her. After she passed away, it seems no one could stop her.
So the problem still exists.
If she doesn't get a divorce, Xu Xiaoyue should quickly go and pray to all the gods and bodhisattvas to bless her unborn child with a boy; otherwise, one can imagine how terrible her future life will be.
However, even if it's a boy, it's not necessarily the best outcome. Given Liu Yuliang's mother's current attitude, how could she possibly stay peacefully in her hometown if she had a grandson?
So a series of problems still arose afterward.
Just thinking about it gave Xu Xiaoyue a headache.
Seeing Liu Yuliang suffering just as much as she did, Xu Xiaoyue knew that Liu Yuliang was actually quite good. He always stood by Xu Xiaoyue's side, no matter what his mother did that was unbearable.
But that was his mother, and Xu Xiaoyue didn't want to face the endless, unpredictable possibilities that might arise day after day.
Therefore, divorce is the best way to end it all.
However, when Xu Xiaoyue brought up the topic of divorce again, Liu Yuliang, as expected, refused once more: "I will not get a divorce. I wouldn't before, and now that you're pregnant, I'm even less likely to divorce you."
The conversation between the two then reached a dead end.
After Ye Qing finished her examination and showed the doctor the results, she and Xi Quan left the hospital and arrived at the parking lot. What they saw were Xu Xiaoyue and Liu Yuliang sitting silently in the car.
Ye Qing sighed softly, glanced at Xi Quan, and then said, "I want Xiaoyue to stay at our house for a few days."
Without waiting for Xi Quan to speak, he knocked on the car window and asked Liu Yuliang to open the car door.
After getting in the car, Ye Qing immediately kicked Liu Yuliang out: "You go first. Last time you asked me about Xiaoyue's situation, I told you, and you also promised to solve your mother's problem first. Now you haven't solved your mother's problem, and it's gotten worse. While you're unwilling to do anything for your mother, please also feel sorry for Xiaoyue, okay?"
After saying that, Ye Qing rolled up the car window and said to Xi Quan in the driver's seat, "Drive."
Ye Qing's attitude made her seem like a queen who controlled everything!
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Xi Quan glanced at Liu Yuliang, who was standing outside the car looking utterly dejected. He felt sympathy for Liu Yuliang, but that was all he felt.
Although Xi Quan, Liu Yuliang's boss, didn't want to pay too much attention to Liu Yuliang's family affairs, they were affecting Ye Qing's emotions, so Xi Quan couldn't just remain a bystander.
So while sympathizing with Liu Yuliang, Xi Quan couldn't help but say to Liu Yuliang before stepping on the gas and leaving the hospital: "Take good care of your family's problems."
Xi Quan's actions angered Ye Qing, and she couldn't help but urge him, "Hurry up."
Looking at Ye Qing's attitude towards Xi Quan, Xu Xiaoyue felt genuinely envious. In fact, there was a time when her relationship with Liu Yuliang was similar to that between Ye Qing and Xi Quan.
But everything changed after Liu Yuliang's mother came to Nancheng.
Ye Qing originally wanted to say a few more words to Xi Quan, but after catching a glimpse of Xu Xiaoyue's expression, she swallowed her words.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qing took Xu Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Don't think too much. The key now is yourself. If you're in a bad mood, it will also affect the baby in your belly."
Xu Xiaoyue nodded, indicating that she understood.
When Zhang Sao got home, she saw that Xu Xiaoyue had also come. She didn't say anything and welcomed her warmly, but Xu Xiaoyue's mood was visibly bad. Zhang Sao was a bit gossipy and kept trying to find out what was wrong.
Having discerned Zhang Sao's intentions, Ye Qing didn't give her a chance to ask. After finishing their meal, Ye Qing pulled Xu Xiaoyue upstairs.
Xi Quan was originally going to work, but seeing Zhang Sao standing at the top of the stairs looking up, he wondered what excuse he could use to go up and listen to what Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue were saying.
Xi Quan, who was about to leave, saw Zhang Sao like this and sighed deeply, calling out to her, "Zhang Sao."
"ah?"
Seeing that she was still looking up at the building absentmindedly even after he had called her, Xi Quan said, "Should we cut up a fruit platter and take it up, so we can hear what they're saying?"
"Yes, how come I didn't think of that?" Aunt Zhang subconsciously followed Xi Quan's words and then turned to go to the kitchen. But as soon as she stepped through the kitchen door, she belatedly realized something, awkwardly turned back to look at Xi Quan, feeling very uncomfortable.
“Aunt Zhang, I don’t want to sow discord between you and Ye Qing, but you must understand that Xu Xiaoyue is a very, very important friend to Ye Qing. You must not do anything to challenge Ye Qing’s bottom line, otherwise Ye Qing really won’t let you continue to live in the house.” Xi Quan subtly reminded Aunt Zhang, or rather, threatened her.
Although it could be called a threat, it was also the truth. In Ye Qing's mind, Xu Xiaoyue was indeed a very, very important and indispensable friend.
Of course, Aunt Zhang knew this, so after Xi Quan gave her a hint, no matter how curious she was, she held back.
Xu Xiaoyue is truly in no mood to think about anything else right now. If she had a million thoughts in her mind, they would all be about divorce.
But then I thought again, and I felt a little reluctant to part with Liu Yuliang.
Ye Qing silently stayed with Xu Xiaoyue. Although she wasn't quite sure what the silent Xu Xiaoyue was thinking, Ye Qing herself thought of something. After hesitating for a while, Ye Qing asked Xu Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, do you want to tell your manager what happened today, so that she can be mentally prepared?"
Turning to look at Ye Qing, Xu Xiaoyue was a little confused about what Ye Qing meant: "How can I tell her to be prepared? Even if I get divorced, it has nothing to do with her. Contacting the agent is business, this is a private matter."
That's true, but Xu Xiaoyue is now a well-known figure, and her mother-in-law made a scene in a crowded hospital today, attracting many onlookers. Sooner or later, the reporters will find out.
Logically speaking, Xu Xiaoyue is actually the victim in this matter, and it's not necessarily a bad thing that the reporters know about it. However, Ye Qing knows that Xu Xiaoyue probably doesn't want the reporters to report on it extensively. Putting aside everything else, what would happen if Xiaoyue's elderly grandparents found out?
Just as Ye Qing was about to explain his thoughts to Xu Xiaoyue, Xu Xiaoyue's cell phone rang.
