Jiang Yilai politely replied, "I'm sorry, I have a lot of work this afternoon. Drinking will make me sleepy and cause me to make mistakes. So much has happened in the last few years that I've long forgotten about the past."
The awkward tone of his voice almost froze the room, and Fu Nanxiao could only manage a helpless smile.
Jin Zisong immediately livened up the atmosphere: "Red wine can have a beautifying effect, and one glass won't make you drunk. Yufei, have some too."
As he spoke, he personally poured Sun Yufei a glass and then raised it up.
"Let's have a drink to our rare get-together, sister-in-law, whatever you like."
Despite saying that, seeing everyone raising their glasses, and feeling it would be a spoilsport to not be in the mood at this time, Jiang Yilai had no choice but to raise her glass as well.
The sweet red wine eased the gloom in my heart.
The dining table was quiet, with Jin Zisong keeping the atmosphere lively.
After dinner, Jin Zisong suggested watching TV since there was still time, but Jiang Yilai refused and left first, citing work as the reason.
Watching her indifferent departure, Sun Yufei felt somewhat sorry for her.
Jin Zisong sighed at this moment: "Brother, it seems that your wife has a lot on her mind. This is all I can do to help. You'll have to work harder on your own from now on."
"Thanks for today, I'll head back now." Fu Nanxiao was determined to resolve this knot in his heart.
After Fu Nanxiao left, Jin Zisong put his hand on Sun Yufei's shoulder and said lazily, "Baby, I'm so sleepy. Let's go back to sleep."
This time, Sun Yufei shook off his hand and glared at him angrily.
Jin Zisong looked bewildered: "Why are you angry?"
"So you didn't come here to keep me company, but to help your good brother."
Sun Yufei thought he had finally changed his ways and was willing to accompany her to see her sisters in broad daylight, but she never expected that it was for Fu Nanxiao.
Jin Zisong frowned and said, "I had no choice. It's rare for my brother to ask me for a favor, so how could I refuse? Besides, he still has feelings for you and your sister, so we should help make things work out."
Sun Yufei shook her head and said angrily, "Do you know why I've refused to get married all these years?"
"This problem is also troubling me. I'm so infatuated with you, why aren't you moved at all?"
"Touched? Of course I'm touched, but can you please stop being so childish? You always make me feel insecure."
"Where am I being childish?"
"I really have nothing to say to you. You should reflect on your own actions. Let's not see each other for a while and let each of us calm down."
Sun Yufei had had enough. She had always tolerated his little whims and followed in his footsteps.
Knowing that his lifestyle is different from hers, she is also accommodating him.
Hopefully, he will be able to make some changes for himself someday.
But in the end, he didn't change at all; instead, he became even worse, making her no longer want to be with a man who never grew up and was always playing around.
Jin Zisong grew anxious and grabbed her as she was about to leave: "Sun Yufei, explain yourself clearly. Are you angry just because I came to help my brother today? How can you be so petty?"
"You're right, I am petty, so I don't want to continue like this. Let's break up!"
This incident was just the fuse; today, Sun Yufei finally understands how difficult it is to live with a man who never grows up.
She didn't want her husband to be out socializing all night and coming home to sleep during the day after marriage, leaving them no time to even talk or communicate.
She also doesn't want her child to grow up in such a dysfunctional family environment.
