"Song Zhenhua, stop guessing. Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you. Let's part ways in peace."
Zheng Peilan's meaning couldn't be more obvious.
How could Song Zhenhua possibly hear that?
He was just playing dumb.
As long as he didn't admit it, based on his understanding of Zheng Peilan, she would not say anything about it.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you have been wronged, just tell me directly. Why do this?"
Song Zhenhua used the same attitude he used to coax Zheng Peilan in the past. While talking, he walked over and took Zheng Peilan into his arms.
Zheng Peilan knew that her strength was no match for Song Zhenhua's, so she didn't struggle and it would be a waste of energy.
"When you hold me like this, doesn't the guy from Chunyang Street have any objection?"
...
...
Zheng Peilan's tone was calm, without any jealousy or anger due to betrayal.
When he heard Chunyang Street, Song Zhenhua froze, let go of his hand, and took a half step back.
"What Chunyang Street?"
Zheng Peilan chuckled and looked up at Song Zhenhua, "Now that we've come to this point, there's no point in you continuing to act dumb."
"You bought a house for that person without my knowledge, and settled down with him and had children. We have been married for decades, and even if we no longer love each other, we are still family. But you deceived me..."
"Perrin!"
Song Zhenhua interrupted Zheng Peilan hastily.
"If you care, I...I will get rid of them in the next two days. You have a weak heart, don't get angry about this kind of thing. It's all my fault. I promise you that I will never contact them again and will only focus on you and Shishi."
Song Zhenhua looked at Zheng Peilan's expression carefully, and even raised three fingers as if to swear.
Although he didn't know how Zheng Peilan knew about this, he absolutely could not divorce Zheng Peilan.
It’s hard to divorce a military marriage, especially since he is now the leader.
Regardless of whether the divorce can be successful or not, once this matter gets out and those who have been eyeing his position know about it, the position of leader that he has worked so hard to secure will be in danger.
Zheng Peilan has been with Song Zhenhua for so many years, how could she not be aware of Song Zhenhua's concerns?
She is no longer the little girl who was fooled by Song Zhenhua with just a few words.
If she believed these lies, she would be alive again.
However, she also understood that it was obviously useless to say this to Song Zhenhua now.
So Zheng Peilan pretended to accept Song Zhenhua's words.
"Okay, then I'll trust you for once. I hope you won't disappoint me again."
With the stairs, the expression on Song Zhenhua's face eased a lot.
"Of course, no one can replace you and Shishi."
As he spoke, Song Zhenhua put the clothes that Zheng Peilan had just taken out back into the closet one by one.
Maybe Song Zhenhua felt guilty, or maybe Song Zhenhua was really afraid that Zheng Peilan would leave.
He didn't go out that day and stayed at home.
Zheng Peilan lay in bed, claiming she was feeling unwell.
Song Zhenhua rarely cleans the house, washes dishes and cooks, like a virtuous husband.
But this image did not last long.
Song Zhenhua went to the army early the next morning. Before leaving, he specially greeted Zheng Peilan and said that he would come back early today.
When she came back yesterday, Zheng Peilan had already made the decision.
She couldn't possibly give Song Zhenhua another chance. Even if she couldn't get a divorce, she couldn't possibly continue living with Song Zhenhua.
Yesterday, Zheng Peilan was indeed planning to go to the street to buy some pig's trotters for Song Shishi to make soup, but the pig's trotters at the supply and marketing cooperative had already been sold out.
She could only go to the black market.
But what Zheng Peilan didn't expect was that she didn't get to go to the black market, but unexpectedly saw Song Zhenhua and his mistress shopping in the mall openly.
Although she found it unbelievable, she still followed quietly.
She heard the woman complaining in a coquettish tone, saying that her son was slapped. If it weren't for Song Zhenhua's sake, she would definitely teach that girl a lesson.
What made Zheng Peilan most upset was Song Zhenhua's answer.
Song Zhenhua said, "You worked hard to give birth to my son, so I will not let you suffer this injustice. But now is not the right time. If you see something you like in the mall today, just buy it and it will be my compensation to you."
Son! Song Zhenhua actually had a child with someone else behind her back, and it was a son.
When she gave birth to Shishi, she almost died of dystocia. At that time, Song Zhenhua felt sorry for her and said that they didn't want to have children in the future. Having Shishi was enough for them.
But what is Song Zhenhua doing now?
It couldn't be more ironic.
He betrayed me, but he could still say that in his heart, I and Shishi were the most important people.
Pooh!
“Boom boom boom!”
"Aunt Zheng, are you home?"
Not long after Song Zhenhua left, there was a knock on the door.
Zheng Peilan felt the voice was familiar and walked over to open the door.
Standing outside the door was actually a stone.
"Shitou, why are you here?"
Shitou scratched the back of his head sheepishly and explained, "Didn't you ask me to make you a jewelry box last time? I heard that you were staying at Comrade Song's place these days, but when I went there, no one was there. I thought you might be back, so I came to check on you."
Zheng Peilan looked at the box in Shi Tou's hand in shock.
"It's done so quickly?"
Shitou nodded, "Yes, take a look. If you are not satisfied, I will take it back and fix it."
“This is so beautiful.”
Zheng Peilan took the jewelry box from Shitou.
She was worried about moving things because she had no box to put her jewelry in.
Now that I have such a beautiful jewelry box, I feel much better.
Shitou walked into the house, took the tea handed to him by Zheng Peilan, and said thank you.
"Aunt Zheng, are you moving?"
Looking at the bulging suitcases in the living room, Shi Tou was stunned.
"I guess so. I plan to stay at Shishi's place for a while, so I have a lot of stuff."
There are three packages of different sizes on the ground.
Judging from Zheng Peilan's posture, it is obvious that she hasn't finished cleaning up yet.
"How can you carry so many things by yourself? I'd better take you there."
Zheng Peilan didn't bother to be polite with Shitou and said bluntly: "Thank you so much, I'll make you something delicious later."
"By the way, how much is this jewelry box? I'll give it to you."
Zheng Peilan went into the house to pack her jewelry, and Shi Tou stood at the door watching.
"It's not much money. Just consider it as my gift in return for taking care of Lili."
Shitou refused to take the money and made an excuse.
"Let's put this one thing aside. My daughter Shishi treats Lili as her own sister. I also like Lili very much and treat her well, all voluntarily.
But didn't we agree on this jewelry box? I'll buy it from you and I'll also promote it for you to get some business.
Besides, if you don’t tell me the price, how can I answer if someone asks me about it?”
Zheng Peilan's words successfully convinced Shi Tou.
"Okay then, I'll just quote the price, but I can't take the money no matter what."
…
With Shitou's help, Zheng Peilan didn't have to put in much effort in this move.
Except for being a little tired when packing, Shitou basically carried everything by himself afterwards, which made it a lot easier.
After get off work, Song Shishi did not rush back home, but went to Mr. Gong instead.
Mr. Gong specifically told Song Shishi to go to him when she went to settle her royalties.
I don't know what Mr. Gong wants to say, he acts so mysterious.
