Wang Mudan knew very well that the gap between her and Si Mingda had grown deeper since their last quarrel. If she confronted him head-on, it would only make him drift further away. Matters of the heart are like spilling ink on white clothes. Once there is a stain, no amount of detergent can wash it back to its original state.
From her perspective, she certainly didn't want the rift between her and Simingda to widen. She was already 35 years old and she had to consider practical issues.
She and Si Mingda have known each other for many years. Her parents like the eloquent Si Mingda very much. When he first came to Nanzhong City to work, they not only did not despise him for being poor, but generously helped him with his travel expenses. After waiting for a lot of effort, their daughter and son-in-law succeeded in their business and became big bosses. Wang Mudan's parents have always been proud of their son-in-law, and are even more pleased that their daughter has become a boss's wife.
It was obvious that if Wang Mudan and Si Mingda broke up, how would she face her parents' inquiries? How could she justify their painstaking efforts in nurturing her? Furthermore, her three children, two in elementary school and one still babbling, cost nearly 20,000 yuan per month. The current nanny was a relative of Si Mingda's. If they divorced, what would become of the children and the chaotic household? Divorce was easy to say, and it could be said with a casual air, a pretense of dignity. These days, women didn't necessarily need men; they could survive without them.
Indeed, words are easy to say, just a touch of the lips and that's it, but life is made up of trivial details that accumulate day by day. If she left Simingda, there is no doubt that her work and life would not be as stable and wealthy as they are now, and her children would also lose the care of healthy parents. For a woman of her age, the focus is on the elderly and children. After weighing the pros and cons, as long as the elderly and children live well, what does it matter if she suffers a little grievance?
What's more, as long as she can keep Simingda's heart, she can still be the legitimate boss lady and can also keep her huge fortune.
After thinking it over, she had to pretend to be ignorant for the time being and watch Si Mingda's every move with cold eyes. She neither came to him to get to the bottom of the matter nor went to Luo Yingtao to question him, which gave her the illusion that Wang Mudan didn't care about this matter.
In fact, Wang Mudan still hopes that Si Mingda can turn back on his own, and they can continue to run the company together like they did in the past, and raise their three children peacefully.
After much thought, Wang Mudan decided to ask Zhao Haitang how she should solve the current family crisis.
Wang Mudan thought for a moment and sent a WeChat message to Zhao Haitang: "Haitang, Simingda has been going to Nanyou City frequently to discuss business recently. In fact, I know most of his business friends, so the frequency of his visits recently is a bit abnormal. I know very well that he doesn't go there every time to discuss business. He changed the password for his phone and doesn't allow me to check his phone. I suspect that he and Luo Yingtao are still in contact. I don't want to make things too awkward with him, for fear that the gap between us will become deeper and deeper. I hope he can take the initiative to come back, but he doesn't listen to my advice at all. Luo Yingtao's seductive eyes have bewitched him to the point of losing his mind. After thinking about it, I still want you to come forward. Talk to him about the interests of this relationship and test his attitude. Do you still want to continue living with me? This will prevent me from being worried every day. I feel so tired."
"How has he treated you recently?" Zhao Haitang asked.
"We just talk about work in a businesslike manner at the company, and only talk to our children at home. We never communicate in private. Ever since I checked his phone last time, he never puts it down at home. Sometimes when he really needs to put it down, he either turns it off or changes the password. I can't check his social circle at all. He said that I am not allowed to violate his privacy. What do you think will happen to our relationship?" Wang Mudan's tone was full of helplessness and sadness.
"Since he won't let you look at his phone, it's clear he's hiding something from you. With his temper, don't try to force it. If you push him too far, he might go to extremes, and you'll be the one who suffers. Don't worry, I'll arrange a time to talk to him in a few days. He's generally a listener."
"Okay, Haitang, thank you for your help."
"It's okay. We've been good friends for many years. I sincerely hope that you can live a safe and happy life. For the sake of your three children and the career you've worked so hard for over a decade, you must not give up."
"Haitang, I know. I hope you can help me." Wang Mudan said helplessly. She didn't know who to talk to about this family scandal. After thinking about it, she could only ask for help from her old classmate Zhao Haitang who was good at emotional mediation.
"Don't worry, I will do my best." Zhao Haitang comforted Wang Mudan considerately. Over the years, she has received too many cases of emotional entanglements between couples. Unfortunate families have their own misfortunes. In those divorced families, men and women each have their own responsibilities. It is not always the man's fault. In order to mediate the case smoothly, only by carefully analyzing the contradictions in their marriage can targeted mediation be carried out.
Back when they were at K University, Zhao Haitang, as the class monitor, had mediated the emotional entanglement between Simingda, Luo Yingtao, and Wang Mudan. She was knowledgeable, eloquent, good at grasping people's psychological points, and analyzing the interests in a reasonable and realistic way based on real life. Simingda had a cynical personality, but he admired Zhao Haitang's character and ability, especially when he was hospitalized that year, Zhao Haitang took Wang Mudan to see him in the hospital. He had always been grateful to her, and they had had a good personal relationship over the years.
The complicated emotional entanglement between the three people had been calm for more than ten years. Unexpectedly, because of a reunion at a baby's hundred-day party, Si Mingda actually abandoned social morality and family responsibility, disregarded Wang Mudan's feelings, and selfishly pursued the so-called true love, which triggered an unprecedented marriage crisis. This was unexpected by many people.
