Yun Xiangye raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan, her eyes also full of disappointment: "Gu Yan, I didn't expect that you didn't even remember my age."
Gu Yan was quite helpless, "Does it matter whether she is a younger sister or an older sister now?"
Xie Zhixuan couldn't help but smile and said, "I'll go first."
Yun Xiangye hurriedly stood up and bowed to Xie Zhixuan, saying, "Goodbye, mother."
After sending Xie Zhixuan away, Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and shook her head gently, saying, "We've been married for three years, and you don't even know how old I am."
Gu Yan frowned and said, "How could I not know?"
Yun Xiangye asked, "Then why did you say I would be your sister?"
Gu Yan said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice: "It's not like you haven't called me brother before, sister Yun..."
When Yun Xiangye heard Gu Yan's words, she recalled the time when she called him brother and said in shame and anger, "You!"
Yun Xiangye took a deep breath and said, "It seems that there is no need for us to even talk about it. Why don't I just tell mother that we want to divorce, and you can recognize me as your sister..."
Gu Yan snorted, "Now that you no longer need the fake death potion or the elixir of life certificate, you're asking for a divorce again? You truly are a businessman who forgets his principles when it comes to profit."
Yun Xiangye said, "Yes, I'm greedy and forget my principles! There's nothing much to say between us. I'm going to go find my mother now..."
Gu Yan grabbed Yun Xiangye's wrist, holding her tightly in his arms and said, "It was just something I said in anger, do you take it seriously?"
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan angrily, "If you're angry, isn't that what you think in your heart?"
Gu Yan asked, "You were fine, so why are you asking for a divorce again?"
"We haven't had a good relationship since we came to Chang'an. I was originally touched by your willingness to give me the Red Book and Iron Certificate to help my sister. Now I know that you gave me the Red Book and Iron Certificate not for me, but for the wealth of your Gu family. You want to use my sister's unborn child to consolidate your Gu family's power if they become feared in the future."
After listening to Yun Xiangye's words, Gu Yan realized that she had overheard the conversation in the study yesterday.
Gu Yan said, "You didn't even hear everything even though you were eavesdropping. I didn't do this because of your plea. If you really want to consolidate the Gu family's power, there are other ways. You really don't know how to appreciate kindness."
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but raise her voice: "You say I don't know how to appreciate kindness? Do you dare to say you don't have any intention of taking advantage of me?"
"Daddy, Mommy, don't quarrel."
Xiao Nuonuo looked at them with her round little peach blossom eyes.
Yun Xiangye calmed down, picked up Nuonuo and said, "Daddy and Mommy, don't quarrel."
Nuonuo threw herself into Yun Xiangye's arms, "Mother."
Gu Yan reached out and touched the soft little face in Yun Xiangye's arms, "Daddy and Mommy, please stop arguing and take you to play with kites, okay?"
Nuonuo clapped her hands and said, "Play with kites."
The spring breeze blows, and the afternoon is a good time to play with kites.
Little Nuonuo had a lot of fun playing, and soon he was too tired to fall asleep.
After Yun Xiangye handed Nuonuo to Nanny Cao, she went to the study with Gu Yan.
Yun Xiangye has nothing to worry about now. The method her mother suggested is fine. She and Gu Yan don't necessarily have to be enemies. They don't have any deep hatred for each other. They are just not suitable to be husband and wife.
She can let go of things easily, and it is not impossible for them to be siblings after the divorce.
At least, this way, Nuonuo doesn't have to worry about choosing between her parents.
With this in mind, Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yan coming in and said, "Mother asked you and I to have a frank talk, so I will have a good and calm talk with you."
After Yun Xiangye sat down, she gestured for Gu Yan to sit opposite her.
Gu Yan, however, held Yun Xiangye in his arms, "Because you met Zhao Jing today... do you have to divorce me?"
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but frown upon hearing this and said, "What does this have to do with Zhao Jing? If I were going to marry him, I would have done it four years ago regardless of the consequences. My divorce from you is only about you, not anyone else."
Gu Yan frowned and asked, "How come it's such a coincidence that I met Zhao Jing today and asked for a divorce from my mother as soon as I came back?"
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but feel angry again. "In your eyes, I am the kind of person who is easily tempted by other people. I can swear that after divorcing you, I will never marry again..."
Gu Yan said, "Your oath doesn't count. After all, didn't you swear in front of Zhao Jing that you would never marry?"
Yun Xiangye said angrily, "Isn't this just retribution for breaking my oath?"
Yun Xiangye stood up from Gu Yan's lap. She looked at him angrily and said, "I need to divorce you."
Gu Yan said: "You don't need to mention this matter again. I will never agree to divorce you."
Yun Xiangye said, "My mother will make the decision for me."
Gu Yan couldn't help but frown. If it weren't for the fact that he and Yun Xiangye were two years apart, he would have suspected that Yun Xiangye was his mother's biological daughter.
Gu Yan frowned slightly and said, "Since you don't have another man in your heart, why do you insist on getting a divorce? Is it what you want to separate Nuonuo's parents?
I consider myself a good husband. Look around Chang'an... no, look around the entire Dasheng Dynasty. Is there any husband who allows his wife to beat and scold him, and even make him kneel down and count on his abacus? I am extremely humble in front of you, what else do you have to complain about?
You weren't like this when you were in Jiangnan. You were very gentle there. How come you've changed after coming to Chang'an?"
Yun Xiangye said, "To be fair, you are right on this point, but I don't want to leave my hometown for a husband who doesn't love me and doesn't care about me."
