Chapter 22 I Will Divorce You

Huo Jianguo had a dream all night.

In his dream, he was entangled by a fat and huge python around his waist and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get free.

Just when he was about to be swallowed by the python, he woke up from his dream in a cold sweat.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a big round head on his chest. The fear in the dream had not disappeared yet, and Huo Jianguo was frightened out of his wits.

Instinctively, he pushed the big head on his chest to the side.

Touching his pounding heart, Huo Jianguo finally realized that the big head that had just been on his chest was Su Mei's. He immediately flew into a rage:

"Su Mei, you are really a wicked person."

"What's wrong? Is there an emergency patient?" Su Mei yawned and opened her eyes sleepily. In her dream, she returned to the surgical duty room to sleep.

When she heard someone calling her, she subconsciously thought that someone was coming for a nighttime medical consultation.

When she opened her eyes and saw Huo Jianguo's handsome face and the furnishings in the house, Su Mei realized that she had become a poor time traveler who had traveled to the 1970s when conditions were harsh.

"I've never seen anyone as shameless as you." Huo Jianguo said coldly as he climbed up from the bed.

Su Mei was being scolded for no reason in the early morning. She felt very uncomfortable. She replied lazily:

"Well now you see it!"

Huo Jianguo: ".......Unreasonable."

"Why am I unreasonable? If you hadn't drunk too much, you wouldn't have been sent to me by the little warrior." Su Mei said, rolling her eyes at Huo Jianguo.

"They've already sent you to the door. I can't kick you out. Otherwise, you'll think I'm willing to let you in!"

"What can I do if I don't want you to lie in my arms?" Huo Jianguo asked back.

Then he put on his shoes while warning Su Mei:

"I'm telling you, Su Mei, stop thinking about those nonsense. No matter what you do, I will divorce you.

If you want to leave with your hair intact, you'd better not have any improper thoughts about me."

"Please believe me, I have no bad intentions." Su Mei really felt that she was wrongly accused.

She didn't have any evil intentions to fall asleep in his arms? If he wasn't drunk and his second son wasn't conscious, she might have taken advantage of him. "I don't believe that."

After speaking, Huo Jianguo stood up.

After standing up, Huo Jianguo couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the furnishings in the room.

When he passed by Su Mei's room a few days ago, he saw mountains of garbage in the room and sheets and quilts so dirty that the color could not be seen.

When I looked at her room again today, it turned out to be surprisingly clean.

I don't know when all the garbage on the floor had been cleared away, and the tables and cabinets had just been wiped, revealing the original paint color of the furniture.

The table beside the bed was covered with a floral bed sheet, on which were neatly placed the books he had read before.

In the corner of the table there was a glass bottle used for infusion, with a few furry foxtail grasses stuck in it.

The torn sofa that she had dragged back from the chief was covered with a hand-sewn cover. The stitches were beautiful, just as neat as the wound she had sutured on Li Yuan on the operating table.

At a quick glance, this room actually has an indescribable elegance, and it is a bit more refined than when Huo Jianguo lived here before.

Huo Jianguo looked at Su Mei with some surprise.

Did she realize that he was determined to divorce her and was really scared, so she temporarily corrected herself in order to save the marriage?

Unfortunately, she repented too late. Huo Jianguo always kept his word. He had not mentioned divorce before, which was considered as giving her a chance. Now that he mentioned it, no one could pull him back.

But after all, they were husband and wife, and seeing Su Mei carefully making so many changes, Huo Jianguo couldn't help but persuade her with some tenderness:

"You don't have to be too scared about the divorce. First of all, I will guarantee your future life.

Secondly, when I send you back, I will take all the responsibility for the divorce, so you don’t have to worry about ruining your reputation and having trouble getting married in the future.”

"......." Su Mei was speechless. She didn't have time to think about whether it would be a good idea to get married.

The key point now is that she will be sent back to the mountains that are like the primeval forest, living without a car, water or electricity, and she is depressed.

This matter was enough to make Su Mei upset, but Huo Jianguo always mentioned divorce.

She immediately felt unhappy and started to confront Huo Jianguo:

"If I marry someone else, wouldn't that bring disaster to that person's family?"

Aren't soldiers supposed to sacrifice themselves for others? You should have stayed locked up with me to prevent other men from suffering the same fate."

"What a nonsense!" Huo Jianguo couldn't argue with Su Mei and could only feel angry.

He thought that he shouldn't be soft-hearted towards Su Mei, a fierce woman. In order to make Su Mei give up completely, he reiterated his determination:

"There is no room for negotiation on the matter of divorce. Once Li Yuan's leg is healed, we will go through the divorce procedures!"

Su Mei was just a little depressed at first, but after hearing Huo Jianguo's last words, she was completely furious:

"What is this? You want someone when you need him, and you piss on him when you don't want him. What do you mean by Li Yuan should get a divorce certificate now that he is fine? You mean you won't divorce me as long as I am still useful to you.

When I am no longer useful, you will kick me away. Huo Jianguo, you are not a dog, but you are a real dog."

"I don't have that idea." Huo Jianguo frowned, trying to force himself not to argue with Su Mei about her scolding him for being a dog, and explained patiently:

"What I mean is that Li Yuan's leg happened to be injured. I can give you some more time to recuperate and let you think about what kind of compensation you want.

You should know that if it weren't for Li Yuan's incident, we would have been out of touch by now.

If you ever think of sleeping with me again, Su Mei, I promise that my methods will make you regret it for the rest of your life."

After saying this, Huo Jianguo didn't care about Su Mei's expression, he put his hands behind his back and walked out.

Su Mei hugged the pillow, turned over angrily and continued to sleep.

She wondered how it was possible for her, a person who slept so well, to lie on Huo Jianguo's chest.

Last night, in order to draw a clear line between her and him, she even put a quilt between her and Huo Jianguo as a boundary!

Hey, where is her Chuhe Hanjie? After Su Mei looked around and found the quilt that she had kicked into the corner, she covered her face with the pillow.

Tsk, this doesn't seem like something a good sleeper would do.

Oh, if I had known she would have stayed on the bench for another night. Now Huo Jianguo is suspecting that she has some bad intentions towards his body!

Su Mei was simply too embarrassed to get up and see people.

There was a clanging noise coming from the kitchen next door for a while. It must be Huo Jianguo washing his face and brushing his teeth. After the room was occupied, he put all his things in the kitchen.

Not long after, Su Mei heard the sound of Huo Jianguo brushing his teeth. He finished everything quickly and then went next door to ask about Li Yuan's situation.

After learning that Li Yuan was fine, Huo Jianguo hurried out of the yard.

After hearing that Huo Jianguo had left, Su Mei got up from the bed. She also went to the next room and saw Jiang Wei was inside with Li Yuan.

Aunt Wang left at daybreak. She went back to her own yard to make breakfast.

Su Mei performed some simple examinations on Li Yuan. During the examination, Li Yuan kept his eyes closed and pretended to be asleep. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to face Su Mei.

The person he hated the most happened to be the one who saved him.

However, no matter how much he hated her, Li Yuan still had to thank Su Mei for saving his life. He endured for a long time, and finally stopped Su Mei when she was about to leave:

"Fatty..." Li Yuan wanted to slap himself twice when he shouted this. He had gotten used to it. When he realized he had shouted the wrong thing, he immediately changed his words:

"Sister-in-law, thank you!"
