Qin Feifei did not disappoint Wuyou's expectations. Not long after, the Qin family announced the dissolution of the marriage alliance with the Fang family. However, this did not damage the relationship between the two families. The cooperation continued, but there was still a barrier between them.
Old Master Fang was furious about this. Although the Qin family is a rising family and the Fang family is an old and established family, the Fang family is now on the decline and they urgently need fresh blood to fill the gap.
He had planned the marriage alliance with the Qin family for a long time, but it was all ruined by that fool Fang Yuanyi. Because of this, Fang Yuanyi was transferred to a branch of the Fangshi Group, and Fang's father also lost his authority, completely distancing himself from the center of power.
The Fang family father and son wanted to use a marriage alliance to maintain their power and return to the center of power. Unfortunately, Fang Yuanyi's scandalous affairs had already spread, and the ladies of high society were unwilling to have anything to do with him. Keeping mistresses and having extramarital affairs are common practices in high society, but for him to be so dissolute and disregard his fiancée so soon after their engagement is unacceptable. What will become of him in the future?
Having an illegitimate child who is several years older than one's own child requires a level of tolerance that not every woman possesses.
To prevent the other sisters from being taken advantage of, Qin Feifei had already spread the word far and wide, completely tearing away Fang Yuanyi's fig leaf, leaving him helpless.
Cheng Momo, who was still recuperating at Jiren Hospital, was completely unaware of this. Because of Qin Feifei's guilt, she paid all of Cheng Momo's medical expenses, allowing her to rest and recover in the hospital with peace of mind.
The only thing to be thankful for in this accident is that her child survived.
While Cheng Momo was receiving an IV drip, Wuyou appeared in the ward. His white coat, paired with his delicate features, did not make him look old; instead, it gave him a touch of sacred radiance.
"Who are you?" Cheng Momo stared intently at Wuyou's face, feeling a strange familiarity, but her mind went blank for a moment.
"I am Yan Rui's mother." Hearing this, she smiled slightly and sat down on the edge of Cheng Momo's bed.
These words were like a key that unlocked the switch of memories. Cheng Momo immediately thought of the woman who had blamed her for making her parents give birth to her younger brother, thus changing her life.
Back then, Cheng's parents followed Wuyou's advice and went to the hospital for a checkup, which indeed revealed that she was more than a month pregnant. According to the doctor, Cheng's mother usually didn't pay attention to her health, and if it hadn't been discovered early, the baby would definitely have been lost.
Because of this change, Cheng Momo gained a younger brother, but she was not happy at all. After all, her parents used to love and cherish her the most, but everything changed after her brother was born.
He no longer enjoyed his parents' exclusive affection; everything had to be shared with his younger brother. This was unbearable for Cheng Momo, who had always been used to being the only one.
This might be one reason why she fell out with her parents. Since her younger brother was born, her parents have become increasingly strict with her and have stopped showing her any affection. Naturally, she doesn't have much affection for her parents and even harbors some resentment towards them.
Why have a younger brother? Isn't it good to have only one child? Isn't it good to spoil him?
Choosing to be with Fang Yuanyi might also be a way of showing his parents what he's capable of, making them regret their strictness towards her back then.
"I wonder what brings you here, Auntie?" Cheng Momo's smiling lips instantly turned into a flat, unwelcoming expression.
"It's nothing, I just have something to tell you." Wuyou pretended not to notice the other person's attitude, her tone distant.
"How could I, a spoiled and willful young lady, trouble Aunt Yan with her troubles? Let's just forget it." Cheng Momo's tone was full of sarcasm, and her resentment towards Wuyou was churning inside. It was this woman who changed his life.
"It concerns Fang Yuanyi, do you really not want to hear it?" Wuyou's lips curled slightly. Given the depth of their torturous relationship, he didn't believe that Cheng Momo would be disappointed in Fang Yuanyi because of this matter.
Carefree steps have already left the ward. Cheng Momo is torn between her inner thoughts and her emotions, but in the end, she is swayed by them.
"Wait, Aunt Yan, I'm begging you, please tell me about Fang Yuanyi." Her fists clenched and unclenched, revealing Cheng Momo's turbulent emotions. Her voice was weak and feeble, filled with compromise and helplessness.
"Fang Yuanyi has been transferred to a branch office in another city and probably will never come back. Qin Feifei looks down on her and has already dissolved their marriage. I believe you know what to do without me having to say anything more."
Wuyou had no intention of making things difficult for Cheng Momo; it was best if these two got together to avoid harming others. In their past life, their love was truly moving, growing deeper with each torment, with everyone else becoming stepping stones to their love, highlighting its noble and inviolable nature.
Since the connection between the two is so deep, let's just tie them together forever.
After saying this, Wuyou left without looking back. Cheng Momo was deep in thought, her head lowered, her brows furrowed. She had given too much to Fang Yuanyi, and there was no turning back. He was the only person she could rely on, and she had no choice but to hold on to him tightly.
His dark pupils were like cold ice, unable to penetrate the warm sunlight, which instead invaded them with the chill he brought.
Wuyou didn't interfere after that, letting things take their course. Her attention was focused on Yan Rui; her son was getting older, and it was time for him to find a girlfriend.
So, Wuyou started looking for outstanding girls, hoping to help her son relax, shift his attention elsewhere, and stop being a workaholic obsessed with work every day.
Surprisingly, Yan Rui found a girlfriend on his own—Qin Feifei. The two developed feelings for each other while working together and naturally became a couple. Wuyou admired Qin Feifei; she was a smart and outstanding girl. He didn't object and offered his blessings.
Life went on uneventfully, with everyone busy with their own careers and managing their own relationships.
Five years later, when Wuyou heard news of Fang Yuanyi again, she had even started raising a grandson. With his own abilities, Fang Yuanyi managed the branch company exceptionally well, but ultimately, he couldn't defy fate and ended up with Cheng Momo.
Without the experiences and hardships of their past life, their relationship was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper, easily torn apart. Fang Yuanyi was habitually unfaithful, with countless lovers, leaving Cheng Momo constantly busy catching him in the act, creating a chaotic situation.
Life is a mess, and such a marriage is nothing short of mutual torture, yet they can only drink poison to quench their thirst and grit their teeth to endure it.
They struggled to stay afloat in their broken marriage and desperately tried to hold on to their decaying love.
Their son had a distant relationship with them, was mischievous and domineering by nature, and was also frail and sickly, which added a lot of drama to their marriage and caused quite a few incidents.
Upon learning all this, Wuyou smiled knowingly. She was such a good person, bringing together a loving couple.
To Wuyou's surprise, at her age, she encountered a passionate suitor. The familiar feeling was both bittersweet and familiar. With her son's blessing, the two became partners, adding a touch of fun to their otherwise mundane old age.
