She had asked Gao Huai several times before, and also asked Yan Zi about Gao Huai's marital status, but Yan Zi said that Gao Huai was very mysterious and rarely talked about family matters.
Luo Yingtao began to suspect that Gao Huai might be divorced. In today's society, divorce is no longer a shameful thing. Why did Gao Huai care so much? Was there really some shameful hidden pain between them?
"Divorce is not a glorious thing. There is no need for me to announce it to the public, right?" Gao Huai sighed, unable to hide the sadness and loss in his heart on his face.
"It's okay to tell me. I'm not an outsider. Just satisfy my curiosity." Luo Yingtao teased with a relaxed look.
Gao Huai was pestered by Luo Yingtao and said slowly: "Well, okay, I'll tell you, I married her in the third year after I graduated and returned home. At that time, I was a junior high school teacher, and she opened a clothing store in the county town. It was very close to my parents' hardware equipment store, so the relationship between the two families was very familiar, and we naturally became familiar with each other. With the matchmaking of both parents, we established a relationship and had a son and a daughter after marriage. At first, I thought this kind of life would continue forever, but no one expected that fate would always play a cruel joke on us. In the seventh year after we got married, my parents stayed in the store at night and were robbed and killed. Although the suspect was caught, he was a pauper. I lost my parents and all my property. I also went from being a rich kid to a pauper with nothing. At first, my two sisters sympathized with me and gave me some help when necessary. Over time, my two brothers-in-law disagreed. In desperation, in order to improve my economic conditions and to leave the sad place, I came to Nanyou City. At first, my wife and children were in my hometown. In the second year after I came to Nanyou City, I took them to live with us."
Gao Huai spoke with tears in his eyes, and Luo Yingtao was heartbroken. She finally understood why the sunny and cheerful boy had become so dull and depressed. It turned out that he had experienced such a tragic blow.
"Gao Huai, I'm sorry, I really don't know about your experience. I shouldn't ask about your private affairs, so let's not talk about it."
"It's okay. Now that we've started, I'll tell you everything." Gao Huai's face was gloomy. He continued, "After my wife and children came to Nanyou City, the four of us rented a house together. My wife didn't work, and the two children went to school in Nanyou City. I supported them with my salary alone. Although we weren't rich, we managed to get by. I thought we could completely forget that tragic experience and start a new life in Nanyou City, but fate always seemed to be against me and wouldn't let me have an easy time."
