When Gu Tianlei returned home from get off work, he gathered his emotions before walking in.
Every time after a quarrel, I have to face Wen Xiaonuan’s cold words.
He has become accustomed to it and has even figured out the perfect way to deal with it.
But as soon as he entered the door, Wen Xiaonuan came up to him with a smile and asked him what he wanted to eat for dinner.
Gu Tianlei thought Wen Xiaonuan had figured it out.
"Oh, the sun is rising from the west! It's a rare time for you to ask me what I want to eat instead of asking what your son and daughter want to eat."
"Then you must seize the opportunity. This opportunity will never come back again."
"What's the matter? You look so happy."
"Xiao Wen is coming."
Gu Tianlei's face turned cold.
"You said that?"
"Well, you know she hasn't given up yet. She's almost 26, and I can't just sit there and watch her not get married.
Besides, the village girl that Old Cheng is marrying now is divorced and has four children. Even with this, she is still willing to marry Old Cheng. My Xiaowen is so outstanding. She graduated from high school and now works in the Cultural Bureau. She is more than enough for Old Cheng.
"Wen Xiaonuan, do you want to kill Lao Cheng? Don't say you don't know what his current identity is. You just told others his whereabouts. If you want me to become an enemy of him, just say it.
Whenever something happens to Wen Xiaowen or the Wen family, my children and I have to take a back seat.
I told you to just stop living with me and go back to live with your parents and your sister. You've taken a lot of things from your parents' house over the years, and I've never made a fuss about it, but that doesn't mean I don't know. I don't want those things back, just consider it as compensation."
This was the first time in all these years that Gu Tianlei had spoken harshly to Wen Xiaonuan.
"Gu Tianlei, what do you mean? You want to send me back to my parents' home just for Cheng Fangyi.
I gave up a bright future for you and came to this godforsaken place, and now you want to kick me out." Wen Xiaonuan no longer cared about her image as a good wife and started a big argument with Gu Tianlei.
"Wen Xiaonuan, don't you feel guilty when you say this?
Didn't you ruin your bright future by your own hands? Didn't you give up your job because your sister was going to the countryside and your family couldn't bear to see her go and make a scene?
"So what? Our two families are relatives. You don't even know how to argue. What can I do?"
"My family was struggling at that time, and not only did your family not help, but you also kept causing trouble and making us clean up your mess. Wen Xiaonuan, I have a clear conscience towards you and your Wen family.
Call your sister right now and tell her not to come. If she dares to come, I will kick you two sisters out.
I don't want to argue with you anymore about your family's affairs. If we can get along, then get along. If not, then divorce."
That night, Gu Tianlei moved to the police station dormitory.
She thought that Gu Tianlei would just be cold to her for a day or two as usual and it would be over.
It was already the fourth day when Wen Xiaonuan realized the seriousness of the matter.
Just as I was about to go to the police station to look for someone, there was a knock on the door.
"Sister, open the door quickly."
When Wen Xiaonuan saw that it was Wen Xiaowen, all her worries were forgotten.
"Sister, what are you standing there for? Come and help me get my things. You're such a fool! I told you when I would arrive, and you didn't even come to the station to pick me up. Sister Fang Qin, come in quickly."
When Wen Xiaonuan saw Cheng Fangqin was there too, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. Why did she follow her?
The news that sisters Cheng Fangqin and Cheng Fangxian had joined forces with their husband's families to bring down the Cheng family had already spread throughout the compound.
Gu Tianlei repeatedly emphasized that he was not allowed to play with the two sisters, but Wen Xiaowen brought them directly to the door.
But considering that it was Wen Xiaowen who brought him, Wen Xiaonuan still bit the bullet and invited him in, "Come in."
"Sister, which room are we staying in?"
Wen Xiaonuan was a little afraid of Gu Tianlei. "Our house is too small to accommodate you. I'll take you to the guesthouse later."
"Why stay in a guesthouse? We have rooms at home. Let Gu Zhixin stay in the same room with you and your brother-in-law, and Sister Fang Qin and I can stay in her room."
"No, the kids are noisy and your brother-in-law has to go to work. You should just stay at the guesthouse."
Wen Xiaowen was a little unhappy, "Sister, is it that my brother-in-law doesn't welcome me? I know he is partial and always sides with his good brother."
In the end, the two of them stayed in a guesthouse.
As soon as the few people left, Gu Tianlei came back.
He didn't bring any clean clothes, and he hadn't changed his clothes in the dormitory for the past few days, so they were almost rotten.
Seeing that the house was the same as usual, he thought Wen Xiaonuan had persuaded Wen Xiaowen to stay.
Wen Xiaonuan returned home and saw Gu Tianlei there. A trace of discomfort flashed across her face, "Tianlei, you're back."
"Um."
"You must be hungry. I'll go cook."
"No, I'm not home for lunch."
"Then where are you going to eat? Your stomach can't stand being hungry."
Hearing Wen Xiaonuan's caring words, Gu Tianlei's resentment eased a little.
"Going to the state-owned restaurant with some friends. Okay, let's go."
Wen Xiaonuan knew Gu Tianlei's social circle, and the only people who could make him take time out for meals on weekdays were those in the compound.
So he put down the rice bucket in his hand and hurried to the guesthouse to report the news.
In the guesthouse, Cheng Fangqin looked at Wen Xiaowen with undisguised disgust, but Wen Xiaowen was so absorbed in dressing herself up that she didn't notice.
"Sister Fang Qin, does this look good on you? Do you think Brother Fang Yi will like it?"
"He will definitely like you. You are so beautiful. It will be his blessing to marry you."
