Wang Mudan's angry questioning made Si Mingda very conflicted. On the one hand, he was really reluctant to leave this warm home, and his three children were his biggest weakness. On the other hand, he could not control himself from thinking about Luo Yingtao. That woman was the disaster in his life. He admitted that he had fallen into her gentle arms and could not extricate himself.
After a while, he slowly said: "Wang Mudan, you know, we have been together for sixteen years, I know you treat me very well,
Including your parents, I am really grateful to you, but to be honest with you, I always feel very tired when I am with you. When my family was poor, your parents helped me come to Nanzhong City to work, and I always feel that I owe your family a favor. In addition, when we founded Mingdan Company, Xiong Dajiang gave you face and supported us to start the company. For so many years, I have lived in your shadow. Our classmates, my friends, and colleagues all say that I rely on you to get to where I am today. I admit that you are a rare good wife, a good mother, and the best business partner, but I am a grown man and I have my own dignity. Why should I live in your shadow? I am very tired these years and I want to find a chance to relax. Although I feel very sorry for you, I have never thought about giving up this family. "
"Since you don't want to give up this home, why do you drive to Nanyou City every two or three days? Do you really think I don't know who you are looking for?" Wang Mudan asked coldly.
"Me?" Faced with his wife's angry questioning, Si Mingda felt guilty. He didn't have the courage to defend himself. He leaned on the bed with his eyes closed and thought.
Wang Mudan was furious, venting her pent-up frustrations incessantly. "Back then, she despised you for not having money and threw herself into Gao Huai's arms without hesitation. Now, she's shamelessly trying to get into your arms again. Do you really think she can't forget her old love? He just loves your money!"
Hearing Wang Mudan blaming Luo Yingtao, he sat up and replied dissatisfiedly: "Wang Mudan, not every woman is so vulgar. Luo Yingtao is not that kind of person. We are first loves. I understand her character. Don't judge her with prejudice."
"You two are each other's first love. I lived in the same dormitory with her for four years. I know her better than you do." Wang Mudan said angrily. She was recognized for her good temper and magnanimity, but facing Luo Yingtao's relentless pressure, her patience still had a bottom line. She would never allow other women to get involved in her family and property. She had worked hard to earn it for her children. Why should Luo Yingtao interfere and reap the benefits?
"Wang Mudan, I think you are prejudiced against her, that's why you are so extreme. Don't forget that it was you who notified her to come to the banquet last time. You acted like a good person in front of so many classmates, but now you stab me in the back. Can you please not be so unkind?" Si Mingda said disapprovingly. Even though he knew that he was sorry for Wang Mudan and the child, he couldn't make up his mind to extricate himself from Luo Yingtao's emotional whirlpool. The magic of emotions was too great. No wonder the great general Wu Sangui in the late Ming Dynasty was so angry for his beloved that he was willing to bear eternal infamy and lead the Qing army into the pass, because he really could not resist the charm of the beauty Chen Yuanyuan.
"I told her to come to the banquet because of our old classmate. I didn't expect her to be so shameless. She knew we already had three children, so why would she continue to be involved with you? Doesn't she know that this behavior is immoral and violates moral ethics?"
"Okay, Wang Mudan, stop talking so much. I just told you that after living with you for so many years, I feel very depressed. I'm in a bad mood and hope to find a channel to vent. Please don't make a fuss about it, okay?"
"Am I making a big deal out of nothing? You might as well come clean. I shouldn't have fallen in love with you back at K University. I should have let you be laughed at by Luo Yingtao's suitors. I shouldn't have been so foolish as to throw myself at you, and my parents shouldn't have given you money to spend. Everything we did for you was self-degrading, and now all this has become a reason for you and Luo Yingtao to have an affair, right? Whenever I think of our experiences over the years, I feel like I was so stupid. Did anyone advise me not to throw myself at you so hard? You men are all the same. The better you treat him, the less you know how to cherish him. He has to be hurt by other women before he wakes up." Wang Mudan felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and she couldn't help but lie on the bed and cry. She was worried that the loud noise would affect the child, so she had to cover her mouth and sob softly. She was so emotional that she was shaking with anger.
Seeing this, Si Mingda felt a little sorry. He stepped forward and hugged Wang Mudan, saying softly: "I'm sorry, I hurt you. I will restrain my behavior in the future and spend more time with you and the children."
Wang Mudan might have cared too much about Si Mingda. She was originally crying heartbroken, but his casual "I'm sorry" gradually eased her tense mood.
"Si Mingda, I advise you to be rational. You are already 36 years old and you need to face reality in life. At our age, we are past the point of empty romance. Don't go further and further down the path of Luo Yingtao. You haven't seen each other for so many years. Do you understand her experience in Nanyou City? People will change, let alone a woman as beautiful as her. Just based on her one-sided statement, do you believe that those men didn't want her before because they despised her brother's illness? It is precisely because her ex-boyfriends ignored her and her husband is incompetent that she relies on you. Her motives are so obvious, why are you still not awake?" Wang Mudan persuaded earnestly.
"Okay, Wang Mudan, give me some time. I'll sort out my thoughts and give you a clear answer. Don't worry too much and focus on running the company."
