"He Xuyang, we can't do this. We can't go back from the time you hurt me." Qiao Chu was disappointed enough and felt hopeless.

"I won't divorce you. I like you. My mother said that you should obey her, so you left your mother in your husband's house, so I..."

"You like me? So you want me to die?" Qiao Chu smiled miserably, and the purple pinch marks on his neck were like a slap in He Xuyang's face.

Qiao Zhixia pulled her sister away, walked over and whispered in his ear with a wicked smile:

"If you don't leave me, I'll beat you every time I see you. If you don't want to be afraid, just keep on yelling!"

"Do you dare to hit my son again? Do you really think I am a vegetarian?" Mrs. Lin was so angry that she was fuming.

Qiao Zhixia smiled coldly and turned her wrist. "Mom, do you think you still have too many teeth? I suggest you eat more vegetarian food, which is good for your teeth."

"You...you..." Mrs. Lin stomped her feet in anger but there was nothing she could do.

Qiao Zhixia turned around and mocked He Xuyang, "You are already old, but you still rely on me for everything and respect me in everything. If you listen to your mother so much, why did you get married? Won't it affect your breastfeeding in the middle of the night?"

Qiao Zhixia spoke in a loud voice, so that passers-by could hear everything. The mother and son blushed in embarrassment amid the sneers of passers-by.

"If you don't agree to divorce, my sister Yaya will never come back to your He family. If you are not afraid of being beaten, just keep dragging it out! If it really doesn't work, we can go to court for divorce."

Qiao Zhixia took Qiao Chu and left directly, but Yaya was still waiting for them.

He Xuyang wanted to keep her, but was stopped by Mrs. Lin again: "If you dare to chase that evildoer, I will hang you with a rope. You'd better think about how to clean up the matter of Xiao Deng falling into the river! Her ex-husband's family is not easy to deal with.

He Xuyang suddenly thought of this matter and was also overwhelmed.

If he had been able to control himself that night... he wouldn't have felt so empty.

Now that the incident has happened, Huang Xia is certain that it was Qiao Chu who instigated Yaya to push Xiao Deng. If the incident happened at her ex-husband's house, he, as Yaya's father, would also be implicated.

Mrs. Lin's intention was to take advantage of the opportunity to get Qiao Chu divorced, and let Huang Xia's in-laws deal with her and her daughter as they pleased, it would have nothing to do with the He family.

But He Xuyang could never let go of Qiao Chu, and if he really did that, how would others see him?

"Just listen to your mother, divorce that rural woman who will give birth and lose money, and then be with Xiaoxia. Anyway, her son is stupid, and he will definitely focus on the next child..."

After Qiao Zhixia brought Qiao Chu back to the city, she went to the hospital to check her injuries and collect materials, preparing for He Xuyang to file for divorce.

Then these things will become evidence of a broken relationship.

"Sister, I'll let you go if you can figure it out and divorce that scumbag. I'm just afraid that you'll be like those stupid women and will be numb and choose to submit to domestic violence."

"He has someone outside."

"Hmm...ah?" Qiao Zhixia looked at Qiao Chuxu, who had a calm expression, and suspected that she had heard wrongly.

"Not only did he hit me, he also betrayed our marriage. What's even more unforgivable is that as Yaya's father, he was not around her at all, and he believed the rumors and threw dirty water on her."

Qiao Chu's face was calm, but her eyes were filled with tears.

Qiao Zhixia was shocked. After asking, she found out that Huang Xia had a high fever and became a fool after her son fell into the water, but she pushed the responsibility to her Yaya.

"God is really unpredictable. Why does he let a child bear the retribution that should obviously be borne by two adults?" Qiao Zhixia's emotions were complicated.

"The problem now is that Huang Xia insists that it was me who ordered Yaya to do this, and that you delayed the time to rescue her son. They have already put the blame on us."

"Sister, it's okay. I'll take care of this matter, you take care of your body first." Qiao Zhixia was furious when she saw her sister who was exhausted but had no time to breathe because of the scumbag.

Qiao Chu refused to go home to rest. She covered her neck and face with a scarf and went to the store to help.

Qiao Zhixia knew that she didn't want to worry her parents, nor did she want to be laughed at by others. Besides, the Chinese New Year was approaching, and the store was very busy and needed manpower.

But she didn't expect that even though she covered it up so carefully, she was still discovered by the sharp-eyed Yang Shuo.

That day, she was wiping Yang Shuo's sweaty hair as usual, but she didn't hold it firmly, and when she bent down to pick it up, the scarf around her neck fell off.

Yang Shuo saw the bruise on her snow-white neck that had not yet disappeared, and his face suddenly turned cold.

"He Xuyang did it?"

Qiao Chu didn't know how to answer, but her eyes and nose were sore and painful...

That afternoon, He Xuyang was lying on the sofa at home, letting Mrs. Lin apply medicine to his buttocks which were beaten raw and throbbing by the belt.

It had been three days since he was injured. During these three days, he didn't dare to put his buttocks on the stool. The wounds were covered with blood when he squatted in a pit, and he was grimacing in pain.

"That little bitch with a knife was so violent that he wanted to kill you! After this, I will go to the Qiao family to ask how they taught their daughter."

Mrs. Lin finished giving He Xuyang medicine with a curse, and prepared to go out to buy groceries. Now that Qiao Chu and her daughter were not around, she could make some good food for her son without reservation.

But as soon as she stepped out of the door, it was pushed open.

Before He Xuyang, who was sitting on the sofa, could even pull up his pants, Yang Shuo punched him in the head and knocked him unconscious.

Yang Shuo held He Xuyang's head and punched him in the face again and again, each punch hitting the flesh.

"How dare you? How dare you hit her? Are you still a man?"

Yang Shuo's eyes were bloodshot, and He Xuyang had no power to defend himself. He was soon beaten until his face was covered in blood, and he could hardly open his eyes.

"Yang Shuo... in what capacity do you come to interfere in my wife's affairs?"

He Xuyang spat out a mouthful of blood foam and forced himself to open his dark eyes. His eyes were filled with hatred as if they wanted to burn a hole in Yang Shuo.

"In what capacity? In what capacity do you think I was? If I hadn't saved you from drowning in the reservoir, giving you the opportunity to pretend to be her savior, would she still have chosen you?"

Yang Shuo originally planned to keep this secret hidden forever. He wanted He Xuyang and Qiao Chu to live a good life.

However, he didn't expect that his tolerance and withdrawal would result in He Xuyang's repeated harm to Qiao Chu.

That summer, Qiao Chuyu accidentally fell into the reservoir while picking cicadas in the countryside. He Xuyang happened to go fishing in the reservoir in the countryside without telling his family.

He Xuyang couldn't swim, so he didn't dare to jump into the water. However, the board under his feet was too slippery, so he slipped into the water and then swam further and further away from the shore.

Coincidentally, when Yang Shuo went to the mine to look for his father, he passed by the reservoir on his bike and decisively rescued the two people.

They were all unconscious at the time, and he performed chest compressions on them. He Xuyang woke up first, but Qiao Chu fainted in a daze because of his poor health.

But she was too weak to be in danger.

Yang Shuo wanted to continue to go to the mine to look for her father, so she didn't stay any longer. He Xuyang stayed and waited for her to wake up.

Later, He Xuyang became Qiao Chu's savior.

It was also from then on that Qiao Chu developed a crush on He Xuyang, and the two got married when they reached a certain age.

Perhaps Yang Shuo had never mentioned this matter on his own initiative, and He Xuyang had already forgotten about it.

After hearing what he said today, He Xuyang was silent for a long time.

In fact, he knew very well that when they were studying at school, Qiao Chu was actually closer to Yang Shuo.

If it weren't for the fact that Yang Shuo was his savior and that he joined the army right after graduating from high school, it's hard to say who Qiao Chu would choose...
