The moment Yang Mingwu raised his hand, unprecedented panic struck Tian Xiuli.
For a moment, she felt as if she was pulled back into the dark, sticky, and suffocating past...
This has happened many times before.
Every time they disagreed, if she dared to speak up and retort, she would be yelled at and beaten by Yang Mingwu.
In the repetitiveness again and again...
She learned to keep her mouth shut.
Although this method cannot completely avoid being beaten, it can reduce the number of beatings, which can be considered an alternative form of "wisdom".
Everything in the past enveloped Tian Xiuli. She subconsciously closed her eyes, waiting for the burning pain to bloom on her skin.
Unexpectedly, the pain did not come as expected, and a familiar voice pulled her out of the nightmare.
"Mr. Tian? Tian Xiu Li, it's really you!"
Tian Xiuli looked in the direction of the sound and her eyes fell on the man beside her.
The man was tall and had a tough and handsome appearance, but his temperament was very honest. At this moment, he grabbed Yang Mingwu's hand that was about to hit someone and looked at Tian Xiuli in surprise.
Tian Xiuli stared at the man's face for a long time, then said in disbelief: "Bai Hongbing? Why are you here?"
It’s been almost ten years since we last saw each other, right?
The two of them met in elementary school. Because both of them were not very good at studying, they started school very late, in their teens, and began first grade.
In addition, both of them were not good at speaking and not smart enough, and were not liked by the teacher, so the teacher arranged them to sit next to the back door, and they were deskmates.
At first, I was embarrassed to talk to each other.
It took them more than half a year to get to know each other. Bai Hongbing would considerately fill Tian Xiuli's cup with water, and Tian Xiuli would rack her brains to explain to Bai Hongbing questions that she herself did not quite understand.
It's hard for two young people not to have feelings for each other...
But the good times didn't last long. Tian Xiuli suddenly dropped out of school and her family urged her to get married.
Bai Hongbing didn't want to see his former deskmate marry a stranger, so he volunteered to go to the Tian family to propose marriage. As a result, the Tian family asked for a dowry of 100 yuan.
At the moment, Bai Hongbing couldn't come up with so much money, so he asked the Tian family to wait until he went back to raise the money. The Tian family agreed, but when Bai Hongbing raised enough money and went to their house, he got the news that Tian Xiuli had already been married off by her family.
The matter was done, and Bai Hongbing had no choice but to suppress his feelings for Tian Xiuli.
Later, he also listened to his family's advice and married Huang Xia, the person chosen by Old Lady Bai, and had children...
They originally thought that they would never see each other again in this life, but they didn't expect that after so many years, they would meet again.
The changes on both sides are so great.
The youthful youth of the past has been tarnished beyond recognition by the years...
The two stared at each other.
There was excitement and joy in his eyes at reunion after many years, and he couldn't hide his beaming face no matter what.
For a moment, they all looked a bit like their teenagers.
“…”
Yang Mingwu looked at Tian Xiuli coldly, then at Bai Hongbing, and inexplicably felt that he was a little jealous.
OK!
He knew there was something wrong with Tian Xiu Li!
No wonder she moved out as soon as he mentioned divorce. It turned out that she had already found another partner... No, she already had someone else outside!
Yang Mingwu was quite indignant.
When Tian Xiuli looked at Bai Hongbing, her face was filled with amorous feelings. When had she ever looked at him like that?
I have to say that Yang Mingwu is quite hypocritical.
He can cheat on his wife, but his wife absolutely cannot cheat on him. Even after divorce, Tian Xiuli is still his wife! She has to stay with him honestly. Whenever he wants to go back to his previous life, Tian Xiuli has to go back and serve him obediently.
It is like an object that can be summoned and dismissed at any time.
"OK!"
Yang Mingwu sneered repeatedly, "Finally I caught him! Tian Xiuli, is this the man you had outside?"
Tian Xiuli opened her eyes wide, as if she had heard something ridiculous. "Yang Mingwu, what are you crazy about! Bai Hongbing is just my former classmate. Besides, we are divorced now. Even if I really found someone else, it has nothing to do with you!"
For some reason, Tian Xiuli felt a strong urge to draw a clear line between herself and Yang Mingwu, and she blurted out the words without even thinking.
Bai Hongbing felt a surge of emotion in his heart, and his actions were faster than his thoughts. He pulled Yang Mingwu away and protected Tian Xiuli.
"Since you're both divorced, don't bother Tian anymore!"
Yang Mingwu was furious, his anger rising uncontrollably. "Who do you think you are? Why are you meddling in our family affairs?"
Bai Hongbing was not very good at speaking. He mumbled for a while before uttering something so infuriating that it was almost incomparable. "I, I'll take care of it."
He swore that he was really not angry with Yang Mingwu.
But I really don’t know what to say, so I’ll just tell the truth.
"Alright, alright!" Yang Mingwu was indeed enraged even more. He clenched his fist and punched Bai Hongbing in the face. "If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't recognize your own identity!"
After being punched, Bai Hongbing pressed his cheek with the tip of his tongue and tasted a sweet and fishy taste, which immediately made him angry.
How could there be such a shameless man in the world?
He was also divorced, especially since Huang Xia was the one at fault, but the anger in his heart had long since dissipated. Since Huang Xia had made the choice she wanted in the future, he sincerely wished her to live a good life as she wished. After all, Huang Xia was Jiahui's biological mother, so he didn't wish Huang Xia bad luck, as that would make Jiahui sad.
