Su Tang was helping her husband Gu Qingyu iron his white shirt when she found out that his social profile picture was of his ex-girlfriend.
The woman's pupils suddenly shrank and she felt a slight pain in her heart.
When the steam sprayed on her fair wrist, she screamed in pain and subconsciously dropped the iron in her hand. Her friend Chen Qi on the other end of the phone heard this and hurriedly said, "Tangtang, are you okay?"
After Su Tang unplugged the wires, she walked to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and rinsed the burned area. She whispered, "It's okay."
Her voice was low, and her heart felt like it was being grabbed by something, making it difficult to breathe.
After hanging up the phone, Su Tang lowered her eyes, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her lips, her throat tightened, and a layer of mist gradually covered her eyes.
She and Gu Qingyu got married because of a ridiculous engagement. Because of this engagement, Gu Qingyu was forced to break up with his ex-girlfriend Lin Tingwan, with whom he had been in love for many years.
When the man went abroad to look for Lin Tingwan, he was in a car accident and fell into a coma. It was at this time that she took advantage of the opportunity with the help of the Gu family and married him.
I have been married for two years and my son is already six months old.
I thought they would fall in love with each other over time, but I didn't expect Gu Qingyu to be even more heartless than I imagined. He didn't take care of the baby, didn't go home every day, was surrounded by women all the time, and spent his days drinking and carousing outside. I'm really fed up with this kind of life.
Divorce?
No! She loved him and didn't want to lose him, nor did she want the baby to grow up in a single-parent family.
"Wuwuwu!" The baby's heart-wrenching cry interrupted the woman's thoughts. Su Tang hurriedly turned off the faucet, wiped her hands with a towel, ran over, and picked up the baby who had just woken up in the crib.
Baby Yi's face was red from crying, tears were falling like crazy, and there was a fever-reducing patch on his fair forehead.
I caught a cold when the temperature dropped yesterday and had a fever in the middle of the night. I couldn't get through to Gu Qingyu on the phone, so Su Tang carried him to the hospital to get an IV drip and didn't come back until dawn.
The child's illness and what happened these days made her physically and mentally exhausted.
After coaxing the baby, I sat on the sofa, lifted up my clothes and fed him.
Suddenly the sound of a car engine was heard in the yard, and then everything returned to calm.
The door opened, and a man in a black suit appeared. He had a cool and dignified demeanor, delicate features, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his tall nose. His gaze fell on Su Tang, who was sitting on the sofa feeding her child. His brows were furrowed, as if he was dissatisfied. He loosened his tie with his slender hands and strode in. "Another complaint?"
Su Tang was slightly stunned when she heard the man's inexplicable words, as if she didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
"You know what I mean, Su Tang. I'm very busy. If you have any problems in the future, just call me directly and don't complain to grandpa all the time." After Gu Qingyu finished speaking, he was about to walk upstairs.
"Gu Qingyu, shouldn't you explain it to me?" Su Tang's eyes were filled with mockery.
"Explain what?"
"What were you doing last night? Why didn't you answer my call?" Su Tang's face was tense.
Gu Qingyu glanced at her blankly, but for a second, he was replaced by a cold response: "I don't want to answer."
Don't want to answer? Haha~
Su Tang laughed angrily, her face full of mockery. She was used to Gu Qingyu's indifference towards her, but she couldn't accept that when the child was sick and she was alone with the child, helpless, her husband didn't even answer the phone.
"Then what do you want to do? The child has a fever of 39 degrees. The doctor said that if it's any later, he will develop meningitis! Do you want your son to become a fool?" Under extreme depression, no matter how good Su Tang's temper was, she couldn't help but explode and scream hysterically.
