The two are now going through the divorce process, and it will be completed before the end of the year at the latest.
Guo Yulin couldn't help but sigh secretly, with worry on her face. She would not interfere in her children's private affairs without permission. After all, they were all adults with their own ideas and plans. As an elder, there was no need for her to say too much.
She was just worried about her two grandsons, Shen Yue and Shen Chuan...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say more: "Tell Wu Yi that even if you are about to separate, don't affect the two children too much."
Shen Yanxiang responded softly: “I know my limits.”
His cold tone made Shen Dewen snort heavily, and he said unceremoniously: "If you really have some sense, would it have developed to this point? How many people have to get divorced these days?"
What the society emphasizes nowadays is that a couple stays together for a lifetime. After getting married, they generally will not separate. Even if life is not going well, they will still consider the opinions of people around them and will not easily file for divorce. They will just put up with it for the rest of their lives.
There are very few people like Chen Yanxiang and Wu Yi who are getting divorced at such a young age.
"When a couple divorces, it's the children who suffer. If you can't even keep your wife, I don't think you have any future!"
...
...
Seeing the atmosphere change, Shen Yanli received the look from Guo Yulin and spoke up at the right time to help: "Dad, let me play a game of chess with you."
Shen Dewen patted the armrest of his chair and glared at him: "What chess are you playing? Is it time to play chess now?"
Shen Dewen loved playing chess to kill time, but now he even refused this. It seemed that he had been dissatisfied with Shen Yanxiang for a long time, and wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with him.
Shen Yanli’s expression did not change, and he calmly replied: “I think about it, Dad, just think of it as accompanying me.”
Shen Dewen looked at him coldly, exuding the aura of a superior. Before he could continue to say something, Guo Yulin glared at him fiercely. No matter how angry he was, he had to swallow it.
"Oh, oh, oh, it's me, an old man, who is too talkative." Shen Dewen picked up the cane beside the chair and left without looking back. When he was halfway there, he turned back and said to Shen Yanli who was standing still: "Aren't you going to play chess? Why don't you come over here?"
Shen Yanli stood up, and when he walked to Zhou Yunwan, he whispered to her, “I’m going to play two games of chess with Dad.”
Zhou Yunwan nodded obediently, indicating that he could go ahead without worry.
After Shen Dewen and Shen Yanli left, there were only three people left in the living room.
Shen Yanxiang's face didn't look very good, and he didn't stay for long before he made up an excuse to go upstairs.
Zhou Yunwan sat for a while and went upstairs, planning to make the bed for that night.
When she passed the public area on the second floor, she vaguely smelled a faint smell of tobacco.
The sky gradually darkened and there was no light on in the house.
Chen Yanxiang leaned against the window, one hand on the windowsill, a scarlet flash between his fingers, his appearance and outline were obscure and deep.
Perhaps because his face could not be seen clearly, his aura of coldness and excellence was highlighted even more. Just standing there casually, people would not dare to approach him easily.
Looking at this scene, the words "gentleman but a scum" inexplicably flashed through Zhou Yunwan's mind.
She thought of what Guo Yulin had told her, and found it hard to imagine that this man, who always showed no emotion and was always indifferent to everything, would hit someone in public.
Zhou Yunwan pursed her lips and slowly withdrew her thoughts. Seeing that the other party was looking out the window and didn't seem to notice her, she didn't plan to say hello.
But just as she was about to look away and go straight back to the house, the man's figure suddenly moved.
Chen Yanxiang bit the cigarette in his mouth, tilted his head, and locked his eyes on Zhou Yunwan in the dark. In fact, he already knew it when she went upstairs, but he didn't say anything.
He didn't have much impression of his brother's girlfriend, no, now his wife, because they didn't meet often, so their relationship was not close, and he didn't know how to start the conversation for a while.
Seeing that he had been silent, Zhou Yunwan hesitated whether to say hello, but he took the initiative to break the silence: "I'm smoking here, it won't bother you, right?"
"No, I'll go back to my room right away." Zhou Yunwan said, pointing to her room.
Shen Yanxiang nodded, thought of something, and raised his eyelids to look over again: “Sister-in-law, I want to ask you something.”
Zhou Yunwan didn't expect him to call her. She was stunned for a moment, feeling a little nervous for some reason. She asked cautiously, "Brother, what do you say?"
Shen Yanxiang frowned slightly, and a trace of confusion appeared on his tough and handsome face, as if this question was difficult to ask, so he took the cigarette out of his mouth, squinted his eyes and extinguished the cigarette butt.
Immediately, he asked in a hoarse voice: "What gift would make a woman happy?"
Zhou Yunwan was stunned again, but she quickly reacted and asked in a low voice: "Is it for my sister-in-law?"
Shen Yanxiang said “hmm”.
The men in the Shen family have excellent looks and figures, and they talk very little.
When I first met Chen Yanli, he was also very quiet and frugal with words, as if saying one more word would cost him his life. Things got better after they were together.
Unexpectedly, his brother was the same as him. He almost froze her to death with a word.
Zhou Yunwan thought for a while, picked an answer that was less likely to go wrong, and said, "It's very simple to please a woman. It's nothing more than beautiful and gorgeous things like flowers, jewelry, and bags."
For a rich and powerful man like Shen Yanxiang, can’t he just buy these things?
Shen Yanxiang didn't understand, and said with doubt: "What are the details?"
"As for the details, you will need to think about it yourself, big brother."
When Zhou Yunwan saw him like this, she knew that he had probably never spent this kind of thought before, or he rarely spent this kind of thought. She couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart. He had been married to his sister-in-law for so many years. Did he need someone else to teach him how to please her?
After a long silence, Zhou Yunwan thought of something and asked in disbelief, "Brother, have you never bought flowers and jewelry for your sister-in-law?"
Shen Yanxiang frowned even deeper and did not answer.
Seeing this, Zhou Yunwan twitched her lips. She finally understood why Wu Yi still wanted to divorce Shen Yanxiang after the misunderstanding of cheating was resolved.
How many women can tolerate their husband’s dullness and coldness? How many women can accept a marriage without any romance and surprises?
Zhou Yunwan's heart skipped a beat, but she had no right to dictate other people's marriages.
So she took a deep breath and said, "When my sister-in-law was still living at home, I noticed that she seemed to like jewelry like necklaces and bracelets. Brother, you can consider this aspect."
Wu Yi is a gentle and intellectual elder sister. Even at home, she will dress herself up beautifully and match jewelry with her clothes.
Chen Yanxiang pursed his lips slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.
He couldn't help but start to examine his own dereliction of duty as a husband, as he didn't even know his wife's preferences.
