After buying the fourth watch, she stopped buying more, but she started coming home late, and the joy she used to feel when she saw him faded. She even found his concern nagging.
He had a bad feeling, and just as he was about to have a serious talk with her, she told him she was pregnant.
The child he had been waiting for for three years finally arrived. He was stunned by this wonderful news and forgot about her coldness towards him during this time.
The parents, who had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of their grandchild, were overjoyed and generously gave her 1,000 yuan.
Their point is that the Xiao family only has one son, so all the family property will eventually be handed over to him. It's perfectly reasonable for him to give his things to his wife.
Lan Jin happily accepted the money, and upon returning to their room, she launched into a farcical divorce proposal.
He was so excited that he ignored all the details and couldn't resist her persistent pleading. In a moment of madness, he agreed.
He regretted it the next day, but he couldn't stop his lover from crying.
When his marriage proposal was rejected again, he realized that it was all Lan Jin's conspiracy.
He was depressed for a while because of this. His parents noticed that something was wrong and said that it was not appropriate for him to stay at his parents' house for too long while he was pregnant. He thought of the child and asked her to come out here.
He thought that giving her a romantic date would bring her back to him, but what he got in return was an even bigger shock: her child wasn't his; it belonged to someone else.
They'd already hooked up.
Unbeknownst to him, Xiao Xu was already in tears, and the room was quiet except for his sobs.
He cried for a while, and when he realized there was no comfort or any response, he asked in a choked voice, "Am I stupid?"
After waiting a few seconds without any response, he looked up and a row of neat heads were right in front of him, as if they had rehearsed, all of them nodding their heads, including the three chickens and the robot.
Their eyes were filled with deep disdain, as if to say: You're an idiot, the worst in the world.
Yes, he couldn't even see through such an obvious scheme, and he still thought she really wanted to experience a second marriage.
Even someone with a brain stuck in a door wouldn't come up with such a clumsy way to get a divorce.
But Lan Jin actually came up with it, and incredibly, there were even more foolish people who believed it.
Shishi was extremely disgusted.
"You're too stupid. I don't really want my go-to novelist to write your story into a novel. It's not a good reference and will only make people stupid."
Xiao Xu never expected that he was in such a miserable state, and instead of comforting him, the tears only hurt him more. His tears flowed like a faucet.
Once again, everyone wore expressions of disgust, stepped back in unison.
Pfft pfft~
A second heartbreak.
"Can't you at least pretend to comfort me a little?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Shishi spoke up again, saying, "Just now you were shouting in a half-dead voice: 'Wife, don't go, how can I live without you?' Based on that sentence alone, you have no value in comforting me."
Triple kill.
Xiao Xu felt as if his body was riddled with holes.
He stubbornly argued, "It's because I love her so much and I'm afraid she'll be deceived."
"You're really something, loving someone who's pregnant with another man's child and tricked you into divorcing him. Aren't you afraid the Xiao family's ancestral graves will be emitting smoke?"
"It was her own choice to be deceived. It's despicable of you to stop someone from pursuing true love."
"Just now, when she said she was finally free and could go find true love, you had already turned into a rotten cabbage. Do you think she will change her mind?"
"And even if she changes her mind, do you think she'd still be worth keeping? If she can cheat once, she can cheat a second time, a third time."
"Cheating doesn't discriminate between men and women. Wrong is wrong. Even if a broken mirror is mended, the cracks will always remain. She has forgiven you, so why can't you forgive yourself?"
Xiao Xu didn't answer, but the gossip squad echoed in unison: "Because he's stupid."
Isn't that stupid?
There are so many good women in the world, yet he insists on clinging to a rotten peach tree.
Suddenly, Da Liu asked, "Are you Grandpa Xiao's son?"
