"You're so eager to protect your sister-in-law, but this is Madam Xia's own problem, and she wants to solve it herself." Nanny Feng said gently, "Besides, Madam Xia has endured all these years of hardship, so what's this matter now?"
Since the eldest sister-in-law wanted to solve it herself, Shen Heng nodded: "I won't go in, I will just listen outside. If Yu's bullying goes too far, I will go in. Otherwise, I will be worried."
Nanny Feng agreed with her.
When Chen Heng arrived at the entrance to the hall, she heard Yu Ran inside, angrily following her sister-in-law and saying, "Since you know everything, you should have stopped Xie Jian from doing this. How could you be so cruel? Is this the result you want?"
"Mrs. Tang, that's Ajian's eldest brother, my husband."
The word "husband" made Yu's face change. "Xia, you and him have only been married for a year, but he and I have been married for a full six or seven years. Now he is full of knowledge and noble character, and he is an important official in the court. His future is limitless. All these are given by my Yu family and earned through his hard work. How can you bear to destroy him?"
Shen Heng never thought that Yu Shi could say such shameless words.
Yu continued, "He was just a commoner, looked down upon by others. Now, he has everything. With such power and wealth, do you think he would want to go back? The fact that he has been in a coma for many days and refused to wake up is enough to prove what he is thinking."
"Mrs. Tang," Xia asked, "was the woman who ran into Bi'an in the Dali Temple six years ago my mother-in-law?"
Meeting Xia's calm gaze, Yu couldn't understand why she could remain so calm: "I don't know." She truly didn't know, and that was what had frightened her these past few days. Back then, she only knew it had happened and hadn't investigated further. Now that the past was repeating itself, she also felt something was amiss. She pressed her eldest brother to explain, but he hesitated and refused to speak.
But she could guess a little from her husband's unconscious mumblings. If that woman was really her husband's relative, then no matter how hard she tried, he would definitely leave her.
"Madam Tang, what's fake is fake, and what's real is real. No matter who he has the deepest feelings for, he's called Xie Xi, not Tang Zixi. As a son, he must redress the injustice done to his father, and as a parent, he should fulfill his duty of raising Min'er." Xia looked at Shangyu with some resentment and said, "People don't live just for themselves."
If she only lived for herself, she would have left the Xie family long ago.
If she lived only for herself, she should have gone to find her husband the moment she learned that he was not dead.
Yu pursed her lips, remained silent with a cold face.
"That day, when I saw him in front of the Dali Temple, I knew that nothing could go back to the way it was." She was no longer her, and he was no longer him. Xia's eyes were slightly moist: "It took me several months to try to let it go."
Yu gave Xia a cold look and then looked away.
"Whether he's willing to come back or chooses to be with you, I don't blame him. But before that, he should be Xie Qi first, not a puppet who does whatever you say. Only when he remembers everything and becomes his complete self can everything be completely resolved."
"What if he chooses to continue being Tang Ziqi?"
"From now on, the affairs of the Xie family will have nothing to do with him."
Seeing that Xia's eyes were moist but her tone was still firm, Yu took a deep breath and said, "Okay. If he chooses to be Xie Qi again, I will treat him as dead." After that, she stood up and left.
When she stepped out of the hall, she saw Shen Heng standing beside her. Facing the sarcasm in her eyes, Yu straightened her back and walked away proudly.
When Shen Heng stepped into the hall, she saw her sister-in-law silently shedding tears.
Xia hurriedly wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief: "You're back?"
"Sister-in-law." Shen Heng sat next to Xia: "No matter what happens in the future, Ajian and I will always be by your side."
"Did you hear everything I just said?"
Shen Heng nodded.
Looking at her sister-in-law who looked distressed, Xia smiled through her tears. She had Min'er, Ajian, and Aheng. Her life was getting better and better, and she was satisfied.
