Chapter 2: If you don’t quit your job, you’ll get divorced!
"Ou Moyuan?"
Bian Zhi was stunned.
Even though she had known for a long time that he would not stand on her side.
But she always believed that he was at least impartial and would not make a direct judgment on the matter without investigation and only listening to Chen Yuyan's one-sided words.
But now, even this little hope has become a luxury.
Bian Zhi lowered his head and laughed at himself.
This is the man she longs to warm with all her passion, and this is the man she wants to marry even if it means disobeying her father.
Three years.
Three full years.
She knew that he had Chen Yuyan in his heart, and she also knew that they were childhood sweethearts, but Chen Yuyan married his cousin. She thought that as long as she was sincere enough, Ou Moyuan would one day see her good side.
So, when Ou Moyuan proposed that taking care of Chen Yuyan's illness be the prerequisite for marriage, she thought about it and agreed.
But she never thought that three years later, Ou Moyuan would say the word divorce so easily.
Bian Zhi raised his eyes and looked at Ou Moyuan who was standing opposite him.
The man's eyes were cold and ruthless, and there was no emotion on his sharp face. When he looked at her, he was as strange and cold as he was three years ago.
It was her, too naive.
No matter how hard you try, you will never like someone you don’t like.
"Bian Zhi! Did you hear what Mo Yuan said? If you don't resign, we will divorce you!" The old lady looked at Bian Zhi with a firm expression, her face full of sarcasm.
"I told you," Bian Zhi slowly straightened up, a look of enlightenment on his face, "I've done my best. If you have any doubts about my medication, you can ask the hospital's inspection team to review it. I can't give up my career."
As soon as these words came out.
Old Madam Ou slammed her palm on the table, pointed her fingertips at Bian Zhi's face, and sneered, "You tried your best?!"
"Oh--"
"How dare you bring up the idea of asking the hospital inspection team? Do you really think I don't know that you and your colleagues at the hospital are in cahoots and have already colluded? Yuyan has already told me everything about how you abused her in the hospital, how you made things difficult for our little princess Yuyan, and yet you were so intent on covering up for you!"
"Alright! Since you refuse to repent, Steward Wan! Lock her up in the woodshed. When you realize your mistake, let her out!"
"Since she's so stubborn, there's no need to feed her! Just give her some water so she doesn't starve to death!"
Bian Zhi found it unbelievable. This was a modern society ruled by law, yet there was still a saying that people would be forced to kneel in the woodshed and not be given food?
She did not refute immediately, but looked at Ou Moyuan.
She admitted that she was stupid and stubbornly wanted to confirm what Ou Moyuan was thinking at the moment.
But Ou Moyuan's cold eyes fell on her, "Think it over carefully, and then tell me. You must take full responsibility for Yuyan's matter."
"Brother, why are you wasting your time talking to her?" Ou Yao particularly disliked Bian Zhi and felt that Ou Moyuan was forced by Bian Zhi to marry her. So, ever since Bian Zhi married into the Ou family, she had been making things difficult for her. "Throw her into the woodshed and starve her for three days and three nights, and see if she'll still be stubborn!"
Bian Zhi didn't look at Ou Yao, nor did she care what she thought of her. From beginning to end, she only cared about Ou Moyuan's thoughts.
She looked at him straight in the eyes. "Ou Moyuan, I really don't have any intention of harming Chen Yuyan. I'm a doctor. I wouldn't treat my patient incorrectly. Don't you always claim to be fair and rational? Then can you treat me fairly as well?"
Bian Zhi looked at him eagerly.
She doesn't expect favoritism, she just wants fairness.
Investigate the whole matter fairly and give her an explanation fairly.
That's all.
But, she was disappointed in the end.
She was dragged into the woodshed by Butler Wan.
The heavy door of the woodshed slowly closed in front of Bian Zhi. Bian Zhi saw Ou Moyuan's face disappear in the gradually closing door.
She was a little panicked, but the man's eyes were cold and he had no affection for her at all.
She raised her steps, but was blocked by the sinister eyes. She stopped with a look of disappointment in her chest, and watched Ou Moyuan's face disappear before her eyes.
She didn't know how long she stayed in the dark woodshed.
All I know is that the floor beneath my fingertips is damp.
The air around was filled with a cold and terrifying atmosphere.
Soft animals kept crawling around me, accompanied by terrifying squeaking sounds.
From the initial sadness to numbness, she finally sat slumped on the cold floor, her love disappearing bit by bit with the passage of time.
I don’t know how long I stayed in this dark space.
The heavy door creaked open from the outside, and dazzling sunlight shone straight in.
Ou Moyuan stood in the sunlight and said indifferently, "Do you know you are wrong?"
When he realized he had said something wrong, he went to the hospital to look after Yuyan as soon as possible.
The little bit of love that was left disappeared with these words.
But Bian Zhi was still unwilling to give up. She couldn't tell whether she was unwilling to give up for the past three years of hard work, or unwilling to give up on Ou Moyuan just like that.
"I'm trying very hard to treat Chen Yuyan. I don't think I've done her any wrong. If possible, please give me some time. I'll go to the hospital and find out the truth. I'll give you a satisfactory answer. Okay?"
Bian Zhi raised his head and made a final effort to fight for this relationship.
"Give you some time?" The mockery in Ou Moyuan's eyes stung Bian Zhi's heart. She heard him say, "Give you some time to cover up the truth?"
Although he had known this would be the outcome, Bian Zhi was still sad.
She shakily supported herself on her knees and stood up, standing in the shadows. She stubbornly wanted to ask, "Ou Moyuan, in these three years, have you ever liked me for even a moment?"
Ou Moyuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and the irony in his laughter made Bian Zhi understand instantly -
This laughter was like a harsh slap in the face, reminding her of her wishful thinking.
"Oh, I never liked it," Bian Zhi muttered to himself, his face pale. "Okay, I was just wishful thinking."
"Then..." Bian Zhi smiled sadly, "Let's get a divorce."
Ou Moyuan was stunned for a few seconds, then frowned and looked at Bian Zhi coldly.
He thought that after one night, Bian Zhi would admit his mistake, compromise and be obedient as he did in the past, and resign from his position as hospital director.
But I never expected that what I heard her say was the word "divorce".
It's totally nonsense and he has no remorse!
Bian Zhi looked at Ou Moyuan's reaction seriously, then lowered his head and smiled at himself.
In the past, she always obeyed Ou Moyuan's orders, but today she suddenly rebelled against him. It was not surprising that he was so surprised.
She took a deep breath, and in Ou Moyuan's stunned state, she repeated, "Ou Moyuan, we're getting a divorce!"
After Bian Zhi finished speaking, he looked up and stepped over the gate.
She walked very slowly. The low fever she had yesterday became more severe in the damp and cold air. The blows of the crutch made her back ache. The touch of the animal sliding across her fingertips was infinitely magnified in her facial features.
But even so, she still moved forward firmly.
She wanted to leave this place, leave the Ou family, and leave the marriage that she thought she would maintain for a lifetime.
