Zhou Chenyan was so angry with me that he left, and the door slammed loudly.
I breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the bed. Dealing with Zhou Chenyan was really tiring.
After lying down for a while, the door was pushed open again. I stood up impatiently, "Didn't you leave? Why are you back again..."
When I saw who was coming, I fell silent.
It’s Zhou’s mother.
With a smile on her face, she sat down on the edge of the bed, "What's wrong? Did you have a fight with Ah Yan?"
"No."
I can imagine what she would do if I told her that we had a quarrel. I would probably try to reconcile us.
Mother Zhou said gently, "I just saw Ah Yan leave in a huff, and I guessed he had a fight with you. When will you two be able to live a good life together?"
"It's not like I wanted to quarrel..."
I just want a divorce.
If Zhou Chenyan had agreed to me, there wouldn't be so much trouble.
Mother Zhou sighed, "Didn't you like Yan very much before? Why are you so determined to divorce now?"
There was a searching look in her eyes.
But I wasn't worried about arousing her suspicion. After all, she would never dream that I was reborn.
In my previous life, I lost my life for loving him, leaving two lives in one corpse. How could I not learn from this?
"Mom, I'm very grateful to you and Dad for your love and support for me. I know how good you are to me."
But I am still touched.
It doesn't mean I'm going to spend my whole life here.
"But marriage is like drinking water; only the person who drinks it knows whether it's hot or cold. Zhou Chenyan and I... we really can't go on."
Mother Zhou was incredulous. "But didn't Ah Yan just say you were just having a little disagreement, and didn't say it was divorce? I'm thinking, you should think about it carefully. It's not easy for a woman to leave one family and move into another."
He doesn't want a divorce, and of course he won't admit that the conflict between us is irreconcilable.
But I can't tell this to my mother-in-law.
After all, he is Zhou Chenyan's mother.
"This is just our different thoughts. I already feel like I'm at the end of my rope, but he's not taking it seriously and is even pressing me harder. What can I do?"
Zhou's mother is also a woman, so I believe she can understand me.
But I still overestimated her.
"I understand that if a woman is unhappy in her marriage, life will be difficult, but Mom still wants to advise you. It's not easy for you and Yan to get to where you are today. Give each other another chance and don't end it so easily."
I immediately lost the desire to continue.
Anyway, no matter what, Zhou's mother will always think of Zhou Chenyan. After all, she is his mother, and there is always a layer of distance between her and me.
Zhou's mother probably also saw that I didn't want to talk anymore.
"Mom knows you don't want to hear it, but your relationship with Ayan has indeed been getting better and better recently. Mom has seen it all. Mom hopes you will think about it carefully and work on getting along with Ayan. You will always make Ayan have only you in his heart."
I've heard this a lot, and I'm so tired of it.
How could I possibly believe what Zhou's mother said when I had already given up hope on Zhou Chenyan?
"Mom, I'm tired."
Mother Zhou looked at me deeply and said, "Okay, then you have a good rest. I won't disturb you."
Zhou's mother finally passed away.
But before leaving, he said something to me.
"You guys are staying here for the time being. Your dad is sick and not feeling well. I hope you can stay with him."
I nodded.
Only then did Zhou's mother turn around and leave.
I thought that if I just stayed there and avoided Zhou Chenyan, I could avoid conflicts by not meeting him. But I never expected that Zhou's mother had more powerful tricks waiting for me.
…
Early in the morning, just after I finished breakfast, Zhou's mother stuffed in a hot spring voucher. Zhou Chenyan and I stood in the cold wind, looking at each other.
"I'm not going."
Zhou Chenyan said in a deep voice: "If you don't go, I will go alone?"
I gave him the hot spring voucher and said, "You can give it to Zhou Zhizi. The two of you are more suitable than me."
Zhou Chenyan looked at me coldly, without saying a word, and pulled me into the car. I knew it was useless to resist, and I was too lazy to struggle, let alone say anything more to him.
Once we got in the car, we ignored each other.
The driver looked at us with faces that were each colder than the last, and didn't dare to say a word.
When we arrived at the hot spring villa, we got out of the car one after another and entered the lobby. I handed over the hot spring voucher and the front desk opened a room for us, but there was only one room available.
I didn't bother to ask why there was only one.
"Open another one."
The receptionist gave an apologetic smile and said, "Sorry, there's only one room left."
It turns out that old ginger is still spicy.
I looked at the room card on the table in front of me, but ended up not taking it. I turned around and walked out, and Zhou Chenyan's voice rang out.
"What are you doing?"
"Go find a place with rooms."
Zhou Chenyan held me back and said, "If you leave now, Mom will find out and try to bring us together later."
"What do you mean?"
"Mom wants us to develop a relationship, so just cooperate. When we get back, she'll be quiet for a while."
I have to admit that what Zhou Chenyan said makes sense.
The more he and I argued, the more Zhou's mother would try to bring us together. I broke free from his hand, turned around, took the room card, and walked into the elevator first.
I don't plan to soak in this hot spring.
A man and a woman are alone in a room, and it's such an ambiguous place. I don't want anything to happen.
I looked at the big bed in front of me and wondered how I should sleep at night. If I asked Zhou Chenyan to sleep on the sofa...that guy is so mean, he probably wouldn't agree.
But I also don't want to share a bed with him.
Forget it, I'll sleep on the sofa.
As soon as I walked out of the bedroom, I heard Zhou Chenyan's voice.
