"Alas, if I hadn't heard it with my own ears, I really wouldn't believe that Gao Huai would become so terrible. The Gao Huai of my student days no longer exists." Yan Zi shook her head sadly, feeling very regretful.
"Things have changed a lot. He has brought his current situation upon himself, and so have I. Perhaps all this is retribution from God." Luo Yingtao said sadly.
Yan Zi looked at Luo Yingtao with concern and said, "Yingtao, your health is not good. You must take good care of yourself and don't blame yourself too much. Once his case is concluded, you can be released from residential surveillance. Don't worry too much. I believe it was an unintentional mistake. Simingda and Wang Mudan should also understand your difficulties."
Luo Yingtao shook her head in despair and said, "No, Simingda and Wang Mudan now regard me as their enemy. In their eyes, I am the source of all the trouble. It was because I told Gao Huai about their company's financial information that they suffered two disasters. Simingda said it himself that he wanted to strangle me to death to vent his hatred."
Talking about sad things, Luo Yingtao couldn't help crying again.
Yan Zi quickly took a tissue to wipe her tears and advised, "Cherry, don't blame yourself too much. It will make your body more unbearable. Simingda was just angry. Don't take it too seriously."
"No, he was speaking from his heart. I don't blame him. This was all my fault. Because I was so outspoken, his family suffered a loss of nearly 20 million yuan. It's understandable that he hates me. He and Wang Mudan were right to criticize me. I am the cause of trouble. No man who has been associated with me has had a good ending, including Jiang Nanmu. I made him suffer and endure humiliation. Now he even has lost his job. I wish I could die immediately. Perhaps only by dying can I stop blaming myself so much."
Speaking of sad things, Luo Yingtao couldn't help but hug Yan Zi and burst into tears again. At this moment, perhaps only tears could wash away her inner regret and alleviate her despair about life.
Yan Zi hugged Luo Yingtao, patted her back gently, and said softly, "Yingtao, I know you feel bad. If you want to cry, just cry. You will feel better after crying."
Luo Yingtao cried so hard that her heart was broken and she was exhausted. With Yan Zi's comfort, her emotions gradually stabilized. Jiang Nanmu gave her the decocted medicine at the right time. After she took the medicine, he let her rest for a while. Jiang Nanmu and Yan Zi made lunch together.
Jiang Nanmu has a good temper and a very honest character. He is busy making lunch silently. After school, he has to rush to pick up the children from school. Every day he has to open the store and do business, and also take care of the sick Luo Yingtao. He not only carries the financial burden of the whole family alone, but also has to take care of three patients and young children. The burden on his shoulders and the pressure in his heart are really distressing.
After Yan Zi took care of Luo Yingtao and let her rest, she went to the kitchen to help Jiang Nanmu make lunch.
Looking at the thin and old Jiang Nanmu, Yan Zi felt heavy in her heart. She said sadly, "Jiang Nanmu, I'm really sorry for putting you in such a difficult position. The whole family, young and old, depends on you. It's hard for you."
"Swallow, this is fate, what can I do?" Jiang Nanmu said dejectedly with a gloomy face.
"Alas, your family of three used to live such a good life. How come it became like this in just two years?" Yan Zi sighed.
Jiang Nanmu looked at Yan Zi with sadness, and suddenly asked, "Yan Zi, do you believe in fate?"
"I don't believe in fatalism, but in some way, our lives really do seem to be controlled by fate. Otherwise, we wouldn't suffer so many disasters beyond our control."
Jiang Nanmu smiled sadly and said, "So many things have happened in the past two years. I now really believe what others say. Luo Yingtao is a disaster star. Any man who gets involved with her will be unlucky. Unfortunately, a poor and honest person like me has been caught in this situation. I deserve to never be able to hold my head up high in this life."
When talking about sad things, Jiang Nanmu's emotions suddenly became agitated. He suddenly threw the spatula onto the stove, leaned against the wall helplessly and cried.
Seeing this, Yan Zi hurried over to turn off the gas stove and helped Jiang Nanmu to sit in the living room. She poured him a glass of water and gently advised, "Jiang Nanmu, think about it. You are the pillar of life for the whole family now. If something happens to you, how will the whole family live?"
Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are heartbroken. In the eyes of outsiders, Jiang Nanmu is honest, hardworking and patient. On the surface, he doesn't seem to care much about Luo Yingtao's promiscuity and infidelity. Otherwise, not only would he forgive her, he would also accompany her back to her hometown for treatment, and he has been taking care of her father and brother from her mother's family without any complaints or hatred. If it wasn't true love, why would he be so tolerant? He is simply a good man hard to find in the world.
In fact, all his relatives and friends knew that the pressure he was under had reached its limit. Whether it was the pressure of family expenses or the mental pressure brought to him by Luo Yingtao's promiscuity, he had long been overwhelmed.
Jiang Nanmu leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes painfully, and pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "Of all the boys she dated—Si Mingda, Gao Huai, me, and two other guys I know—none of them had a good ending. They either suffered financial losses or their families were in trouble. Don't you think she's a disaster or something? If you think about it, those men were lucky. They cut their losses in time and didn't live with her. Only I committed too many sins in my previous life, and that's why I'm stuck with a woman like her in this life. I'll never be able to hold my head up high or stand straight for the rest of my life."
"Alas, Jiang Nanmu, don't think so extreme. Cherry has no choice but to end up like this. You also know that her family was very wealthy when she was a child. She was a spoiled little princess. Her family never lacked money, and she never suffered a bit of hardship. But after graduating from college, disasters hit her family one after another. First, her mother died of illness, and then her brother. Her father became ill after the election. Family genetic diseases are uncontrollable, including her current illness. None of this is her fault. It can only be said that it is destined. She is in poor health and under great mental pressure now. You should be more tolerant and understand her suffering. Don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face. For the sake of your son, don't hate Cherry. She has a bad character, she just has a bad fate."
