Yu Wan was stunned by the scolding. His face turned red and white, and his eyes were also red from the scolding.
But she didn't dare to feel wronged, because she knew that from Han Zecheng and Su Ruo's perspective, she was indeed wrong.
She was biased from the beginning.
Also, her husband always speaks sharply and mercilessly...but he also tears out the selfish desires of others that they themselves may not even want to admit to.
She was silent for a while, then said, "I'm sorry, Yilin. I didn't think this through. I will explain it to Su Ruo... no, apologize. But are you going to tell Ze Cheng about Yuan Chengyang's matter?"
Gu Yilin frowned.
He cursed Zhou Nianxue in his heart and said coldly, "Don't worry about it. Zecheng has always been careful and prudent in his work. Even if I am his friend, the affairs between him and his wife are not something we can interfere in. He must know his own business."
In fact, his first reaction when he heard about this was to tell him.
But isn’t this what Zhou Nianxue wants?
Zecheng should have known about this, but he shouldn't have known it under such circumstances.
This is fucking awful.
After saying that, he glanced at Yu Wan and said, "Ah Wan, Su Ruo is his wife and the mother of his son... If someone else came to me and told me that you had an affair with someone else many years ago, and that you might have been unfaithful to me, and at the same time sent another woman over, how would you feel?"
Yu Wan felt relieved when she heard her husband's tone soften. She said angrily, "I've known you since I was twelve years old. Is there anything about me that you don't know?"
After saying that, he sighed.
Also because she and Gu Yilin have been childhood sweethearts and know how deep and strong this kind of relationship is, she really doesn't think highly of Han Zecheng and Su Ruo.
Gu Yilin couldn't feel at ease when he looked at his wife.
She is soft-hearted and kind, and has never suffered any hardship. This is an advantage but sometimes it is also a weakness, and she may be exploited by someone with ulterior motives.
People tend to favor the weak.
What's more, Zhou Nianxue is a sister who grew up with her, and their relationship is even better than that with her biological sister Yu Ling.
Now in the eyes of his wife, Zhou Nianxue is probably just a poor man with a rough fate.
However, Su Ruo seemed to be so lucky that it made people jealous... She had a bad family background, but she married Ze Cheng right after she went to the countryside. With Ze Cheng's protection, she didn't have to suffer at all. As soon as the college entrance examination was resumed, she was admitted to a nationally renowned university...
But can this fucking thing be discussed like this?
This is really annoying.
He now hates Zhou Nianxue so much, she is really a troublemaker.
He stood up, walked around twice, and looked at his wife again.
He has always liked her gentle personality, but now he feels uneasy... Mainly because he is worried that Zhou Nianxue will not come to interfere.
Besides, he didn't want to get involved in the twists and turns between women.
But just now I thought of Yu Ling, and her hot temper which is completely different from my wife's... But these two sisters both protect their own shortcomings.
If Yu Ling knew what Zhou Nianxue had done, she wouldn't know what to do.
She didn't want to interfere in the affairs between her wife and Zhou Nianxue, but Yu Ling would.
Given her personality, she probably wouldn't like to see Zhou Nianxue using her sister to scheme against her friends.
He thought for a moment and said, "Ah Wan, we don't have much contact with Su Ruo. I remember that A Ling and Su Ruo seemed to have a very good relationship because they were studying for the college entrance examination together. If you are not sure about the apology, you can ask A Ling's opinion."
Yu Wan was stunned, then felt a little awkward.
There is a big age gap between her and her sister Yu Ling.
She has a gentle and steady personality and does everything properly, while her sister Yu Ling has had a quick temper and is spoiled since she was a child. Her mother has always been the one complaining about A Ling in front of her, and now she is asking her to ask A Ling for her opinion... She feels a little uncomfortable.
******
Let’s get back to Su Ruo.
Although Su Ruo scolded Zhou Nianxue and knew that she should not be influenced by her, it was impossible for her to be completely unaffected by her.
Especially since she has lost her memory.
But there was something strange about her marriage and relationship with Han Zecheng, and she could still feel it even though she had lost her memory.
She saw the relationship between Gu Yilin and Yu Wan.
It turns out they are not two people.
There are four people.
It seems like the four of them grew up together and have a deep bond.
And she is an outsider.
This feeling is really bad.
It was as if she was obviously her father's daughter.
But Lin Wanhua married her father and moved in with Su Jia in her home. Su Jia was sweeter, more sensible and more pleasing than her. Lin Wanhua also gave birth to a younger brother, so the family now had a warm family of four. She, on the contrary, seemed like the one who didn't fit in.
That home is no longer her home.
She remembered buying clothes when she was a child. It was obvious that Lin Wanhua used her father's money to buy clothes and daily necessities for her and Su Jia, but she certainly would not act like a spoiled child with Lin Wanhua. As a result, Su Jia wanted to buy this and that, and in the end, she became the one who was accompanied by it. Whenever Lin Wanhua bought something for Su Jia, she would definitely buy one for her, which became the evidence that Lin Wanhua was good to her stepdaughter...
Then vaguely, she seemed to grasp the truth about her marriage to Han Zecheng.
His marriage was broken up by Zhou Nianxue, and when he returned to his hometown, his mother wanted to force him to marry a rural girl whom he probably didn't even know.
With his fucking personality, he could do something like proposing without his consent and acting without consulting him later in any minute.
Then he saved himself on the farm.
At that time, she had a bad background, her father disowned her, and her fiancé broke up with her. It was very likely that everyone wanted to kill her.
But she just happened to have such an appearance... She knew that she was born good-looking, and there were many people who had their eyes on her since she was a child. She was not a fool, and it was impossible for her to know nothing about some things.
So either he took pity on her and married her.
It was even possible that she had begged him.
But she knew he had someone he liked.
So she did not follow him into the army.
He was also very tolerant of his mother.
Otherwise, with her personality, how could she tolerate his mother so much and give her money every month?
Su Ruo couldn't help feeling lost and depressed when thinking like this.
And this thing...
If Zhou Nianxue was living well now, she believed in Han Zecheng's character and would never have anything to do with her.
But Zhou Nianxue is not living a good life. She is abused by her ex-husband and can no longer have children. She has a close relationship with his father and is a close friend of Yu Wan... She seems to have a close relationship with everyone around him, and she, his wife, seems to be an outsider.
It is very likely that everyone around Han Zecheng will sympathize with her and help her.
Han Zecheng appears cold on the outside, but he is actually an honest, kind, and responsible person. Considering Zhou Nianxue's situation and their relationship, it's impossible for him not to feel sympathy and pity for her, right?
Put yourself in their shoes.
If I were Zhou Nianxue and had such an experience, would Han Zecheng feel pity for me?
Thinking about it this way, it’s even worse.
She couldn't accept this.
Not even a little bit, not even a little bit can be accepted.
******
Han Zecheng returned home in the afternoon of that day.
This was the first time the two had been separated for so many days since Su Ruo joined the army.
When Han Zecheng came back, Su Ruo was slowly cooking dumplings in the kitchen.
She had been worried since she came back from Gu's house. After sitting for a while, she felt more and more uncomfortable. She slapped her face, feeling that she couldn't let herself be like this. She walked around the kitchen and saw the pork and cabbage she bought in the morning. Then she remembered that Han Zecheng was coming back today, and she planned to make dumplings for him herself.
She didn't want to sit there stupidly and think about random things anymore, so she took off her coat and started kneading the dough, chopping the fillings and making dumplings.
She couldn't let that woman's words affect what she was supposed to do.
Wouldn't that mean you've fallen into that woman's trap?
That's stupid.
Just like before, Lin Wanhua and Su Jia always secretly hoped that she would rebel, go against them, make trouble with her father, and hope that she would not study well outside or in school.
But because of this, she took better care of her life and studied hard. Even if she was angry with them, she was angry with them secretly because she knew that this would make them hate her even more but they could do nothing about her...
It's not that there is no other way, Su Ruo shook her head, and in the end her university place fell into the hands of Su Jia.
I was sent to the countryside...
I can’t think about it anymore. I can’t think about it anymore.
Su Ruo forced herself to concentrate on kneading the bread dumplings, and she did this with the same energy and concentration as if she were embroidering. It took her more than two hours.
However, after wrapping them, I felt dizzy and had no appetite at all. I just felt sore in my legs and feet, and my hands were sore, so I simply washed my hands and went to my room to sleep.
When I woke up, I felt dizzy with hunger, so I ran to the kitchen to cook dumplings.
Han Zecheng entered the house, took off his shoes, and followed the heat and fragrance to the kitchen.
The kitchen was filled with steam and she was lively and vivid.
It formed a sharp contrast with the ice and snow and the boundless loneliness outside, which made him feel relieved.
When he saw the dumplings spread out on the stove and then rolling in the pot, his body and heart suddenly felt warm, and the longing that had been suppressed for so many days also came up.
He walked forward and hugged her, lowered his head and stroked her hair with his chin, and whispered: "Have you been preparing for this all day? How did you know I would be back at this time?"
Otherwise, why was she cooking just when he walked in?
He was still cold from having just returned from outside. Su Ruo was only wearing her home pajamas and pants. He hugged her from behind. The stiff fabric of his military coat was cold and it hurt her. Su Ruo shivered and became a little more sober. She tilted her neck to avoid his kiss and turned off the fire... She always had a strong sense of safety.
She had been feeling aggrieved all day, and she had been bearing all her emotions by herself.
But when he came back, she didn't want to bear it anymore.
Why should she let herself suffer because of his ex-fiancee?
Before, no matter how wronged or unhappy she felt, she never cried. But when he came back and hugged her like this, her eyes became red.
She turned from his arms and faced him.
Then, not wanting to be hugged through the icy cold heavy military coat covered with water made from melted snowflakes, she reached out to unbutton his coat without saying a word.
Han Zecheng was stunned. Seeing her turn around, he didn't say a word, his eyes were red, and he took off his clothes directly...
He misunderstood, reached out and touched her soft little face, then smiled and said, "Miss me so much?"
Su Ruo was very angry when she heard him making fun of her in this tone.
Feeling aggrieved and angry, she unbuttoned his military coat, stretched out her hands to pinch him, and said, "Take it off yourself!"
Han Zecheng misunderstood even more.
To be honest, he missed her so much these days. When she was not around, he could still control himself, but now that she was back, he wanted to hold her down and give her a good kiss to barely relieve the pent-up lovesickness.
I just teased her just now because she looked so cute.
Now that she is so proactive, he is going crazy.
He quickly threw his military coat into the living room, then hugged her, kissed her, and went to the room.
But Su Ruo didn't want to do that with him.
But she couldn't hide from him or say anything as he kept kissing her all the way until he threw her on the bed. She took advantage of the time when he was taking off his clothes to get up, kneel on the bed and said angrily, "Han Zecheng, I have something to tell you."
Han Zecheng paused.
She had never called him by his first name.
Usually I call him Brother Han, and when I am in love with him, I call him Zecheng.
He threw away his clothes and sat in front of her to look at her carefully. Only then did he realize that her eyes were red, tearful, and her face was full of grievance.
This wasn't just the expression he should have.
His intense emotions finally calmed down a bit, and he asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Seeing that he was no longer being naughty, Su Ru pouted, then climbed into his arms and hugged him. After hugging him for a long time, when Han Zecheng stretched out his hands to hold her tightly, she said, "Only I can hold you, don't move."
Han Zecheng: ...
Su Ruo ignored him.
She put her arms around his neck and rested her head on it for a while. She took a deep breath, which was filled with his scent, his broad chest, and his strong heartbeat. Her body felt hot when he took off his coat... Her heart slowly settled down, and her emotions became much calmer.
She pulled back her body and took back her arms, then looked at him and asked him in a coquettish voice, "Do you miss me?"
Han Zecheng felt that she was deliberately torturing him both physically and mentally.
But he still had to go along with her, so he could only hold her waist, slowly exerting force on his hands to vent his emotions, staring at her with eyes that seemed to want to swallow her in, and said, "What do you think?"
Su Ruo pursed her lips and smiled, then leaned over to hug him, rubbed his neck and behind his ears, and said, "Do you love me?"
Han Zecheng was flattered, and the blood that had finally subsided because he discovered that something was wrong with her surged up again.
His emotions were surging, and he used even more force in his hands, wishing he could pinch her to the bone, and asked, "Do you want me to prove it?"
Su Ruo felt a little uncomfortable as he fingered her, she could hardly breathe, but at the same time she seemed to have gained a strange kind of satisfaction.
She really needed this kind of solid feeling, the feeling that he loved her so strongly.
She lay in his arms like that, and when he finally couldn't help but put his hand into her clothes and bent his head to kiss her neck, she said, "Zhou Nianxue came to see me this morning."
Han Zecheng paused, raised his head, and slowly loosened his hands.
He pushed her away slightly, held her arm, looked at her expression carefully, and then said coldly: "What does she want you to do?"
Su Ruo's eyes turned red again. She pursed her lips and said impulsively, "She told me that you didn't love me. She had no choice but to break off the engagement with you. You turned love into hate, and in order to avenge her, you married me within a month in a rage. She said you didn't like me at all..."
Su Ruo was already feeling wronged, and she felt even more wronged as she spoke. Tears rolled down her cheeks, and she said, "She said that you are with me now only because of responsibility. She also said that now that she is divorced, she is very pitiful and cannot have children. I should take the initiative to give you and our son to her, but Guoguo is obviously my child."
Han Zecheng: ...
He was furious when he first heard it, but after hearing the latter part, his anger actually calmed down a lot.
Because after hearing the latter part, what he was thinking was, why didn’t he know that Zhou Nianxue had such a serious mental illness before?
After Su Ruo finished speaking, she looked up at Han Zecheng's gloomy face. He didn't seem surprised or angry at all. She panicked and grabbed him and said, "Is what she said true? You don't love me at all, and you married me to get revenge on her?"
Although she knew rationally that she shouldn't care about the past, she couldn't care less now that she felt wronged.
She just really cares.
"What nonsense!"
Han Zecheng said in a deep voice.
He glanced at her and said, "I never liked her."
In the past, he was reluctant to say this out of kindness. After all, whether he liked her or not, he had been engaged to her, and there was no need to bring up the past.
But even if she came to Su Ruo and talked nonsense to him first, he would not give her any face.
He saw Su Ruo staring at his eyes nervously, and his heart ached. He lowered his head and kissed her hair, saying, "I have never liked her. That was the marriage my father asked me to agree to. At that time, I didn't have anyone I liked, and I thought I would never like any woman in this life. And she was...she was quite normal at that time. I thought that two people could respect each other, and after marriage we should be able to live in harmony, and she would not interfere with my career and respect each other, so I agreed..."
Seeing that Su Ruo's face darkened again, he hurriedly said, "I was wrong at that time."
Mainly, he had no expectations for marriage at that time.
The psychological trauma his mother left on him was too deep.
When he was considering a marriage partner, he didn't take emotional factors into consideration at all. The most important thing was that the person was rational, well-educated, and, even if they didn't share the same ideals, at least they could respect each other and not be unreasonable... At that time, Zhou Nianxue did meet his requirements.
But not long after the engagement, he realized his mistake. Many things cannot be judged by appearances, especially things like the partner... At that time, he had actually thought about canceling the engagement, but when Zhou Nianxue's father got into trouble, he gave up the idea. However, he didn't expect that Zhou Nianxue would bring it up first.
And later he met Su Ruo.
Only then did he know what it felt like to fall in love with someone.
Later they got married, and she indeed met all his original requirements for a partner: rational, well-educated, respectful... too respectful, considerate... too considerate, supportive of his career... too supportive of his career, and had no demands on him, let alone being unreasonable.
But he was not satisfied.
Only then did he realize that what he wanted most from her was not those things at all.
