Young Master Bai: "I don't know anyone else, what's the point of seeing them? Why don't you go see your ex-sister-in-law collecting debts?"
“You’re absolutely a pervert. You even wanted to see the old lady take off her pants. How thirsty are you? Tell me, did you get some kind of trauma over there?” The third brother glared at Young Master Bai.
"What kind of stimulation could I possibly be affected by? I'm just bored and looking for some fun," Young Master Bai said, glancing sideways at the third brother.
The third brother... is speaking human language. Li Xingguo and his ex-wife are just a joke?
"No, Xiaobai, you've been back for months, why haven't I seen you contact your wife and kids? Tell me the truth, did you get divorced? Did you come back to heal your wounds?" The third brother had wanted to ask this for a long time, and today the conversation just happened to bring it up.
Young Master Bai sat in his executive chair, swinging his legs. "Divorce? Are you kidding me? Our marriage isn't just about the two of us; it's about two families, involving countless aspects. How could we possibly divorce? The revitalization of a family requires the efforts of countless generations. It's not that simple. I've known since I was a child that I have to sacrifice my marriage."
"Sigh, you've had it pretty tough too," the third brother sighed.
"If you enjoy the family's resources, you have to contribute when they need you. Isn't that reasonable?" Young Master Bai said dismissively.
The third brother said, "So you and your wife have been together for so many years, don't you really have any feelings for each other? And she doesn't feel the same way about you either? After living together for so long, even if there's no romantic love, there should still be some familial affection, right?"
"Family ties are a very high level of emotion. They don't just develop over time. My wife and I aren't like you, whose union is based on love. Ours is based on mutual interests. After so many years, the feelings we had when we were young have faded to nothing. Our two families have many related industries. We've been cooperating for so many years. We're a community of shared interests, business partners. It has nothing to do with feelings, and we will never separate," Young Master Bai said calmly.
The third brother's teeth ached from hearing this. He couldn't understand how two people without feelings could live together every day. "You've been back for so long, doesn't your wife have any objections?"
“I’ve discussed it with her. I’ve been under a lot of pressure these past few years, and my life has been monotonous. I feel like I can’t keep going. She also thinks I’m not in a good state and wants me to come back and relax. She says that in a few months, once I’ve adjusted my mindset, I’ll go back. So, shall we go find Li Xingguo and have some fun?” Young Master Bai looked at his third brother expectantly.
Third brother... "Hehe, you're happy, but are others happy?"
Young Master Bai… “It won’t hurt you much, I’m mainly worried you’ll miss your older brother.”
The third brother… he couldn’t think of anything. “If you’re really bored, go and find out who’s behind my back.”
Young Master Bai said, "If I could find it, I wouldn't be wasting my time here with you. You've offended too many people, and you don't even know who the suspects are. There's no one to suspect, so where am I supposed to find it for you?"
The third brother has a deadpan expression; Young Master Bai relieves his stress by watching their family's troubles.
"Living in a residential compound isn't as interesting as living in a traditional courtyard house. It used to be so much more interesting. Because of a single scallion or clove of garlic, the old women would fight each other, and there was always something to watch. The village was even more interesting. You could sit at the village entrance and know what everyone was eating and what color underwear the old women were wearing. You could even go hunting in the mountains when you had nothing to do." Young Master Bai sighed. The city has developed very well, but it has lost a lot of human touch.
The third child also felt that childhood was fun; he would raid bird nests whenever he had free time, which was very satisfying. Now, he doesn't seem to have that kind of joy anymore.
Before the two could finish their exclamations, the second brother called to say that Li Mantun had been hospitalized.
"Second Uncle is in good health, why is he in the hospital?" the third brother asked in surprise.
The second brother sighed, "Let's talk about it when we meet. We're on our way to the hospital."
"Is it serious?" the third brother asked anxiously.
Second son: "I was so angry, my blood pressure was almost 200."
