Jiang Shengjun was about to go into the study to see Su Wanwan, but when he heard Su Wanwan say that she wanted a divorce, he stopped in time and turned back.
My heart skipped a beat and stopped abruptly for half a second.
The lights of the Jiang family villa were dazzling at night, and the fragrance of paper and ink quietly wafted from the study filled with all kinds of books.
Looking at the wound that Su Wanwan had bandaged for her, Ouyang Maomao suddenly remembered when they were little, they were cutting fruit in the kitchen by themselves and one of them cut her hand.
That's how Su Wanwan bandaged her up back then.
But that's all in the past. What she wants is the future, the stability of her descendants, and to have the key to the Hall of Mental Cultivation all to herself.
Even though she loved Jiang Shengyun very much, when she was thinking about finding the key to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she would still pretend to tell Su Wanwan, "When you married Shengyun, I was very sad at first. I was thinking, is it true that even a childhood sweetheart can't compare to someone who falls from the sky? He used to tell me that he wouldn't get married until he found the key to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but then he met you and got married in a flash. Actually, you don't need to compromise for me. Since you're with him now, you should stay with him for me."
As Ouyang Maomao expected, Su Wanwan felt even more sorry for her.
Su Wanwan shook her head, tears streaming down her face, and she cried again, unable to hold back her tears.
She felt that her best friend was too good to her, always thinking of her, and even when she was in trouble, Ouyang Maomao tried her best to help her.
The better her best friend treated her, the less she could reciprocate.
When Ouyang Maomao saw her crying, she reached out and gave her a hug.
Su Wanwan leaned on Ouyang Maomao's shoulder and cried, wiping away her tears as she tried to maintain inner peace.
She said, "Cat, there's an anime called 'NANA,' and there's a character named Takumi. Takumi says that love can be cultivated, and that humans always love themselves the most, which is why they fall in love with others who can satisfy their desires. So, as long as we find what Jiang Shengjun wants, we can cater to his preferences."
Su Wanwan was afraid that Ouyang Maomao would think she was being too nice and overthink things, so she added, "Don't feel pressured, I don't love him."
Ouyang Maomao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled brightly: "Alright, you idiot, don't I know you? This is just your personality. From childhood to adulthood, you've suppressed yourself and given others what they want, even if you want it yourself. What is that? That's being a saint!"
Su Wanwan cried even harder when she heard the word "Holy Mother," feeling that her best friend looked down on her, and tried her best to explain.
“No, why are you saying that about me? I just want you to be happy because you are a very, very good person. If it were someone else, I wouldn’t give up what I want to them. For example, money. I wouldn’t give up my own money to anyone. I love money all my life. Men are just emotional entertainment for me.”
At this point, she wiped away her tears and added, "But Jiang Shengyun is not a pastime. Every time I see Jiang Shengyun, I don't treat him as a man. He is a person with an independent personality. People with independent personalities cannot be divided into male and female, because they are androgynous and are very outstanding people."
Su Wanwan's eyes shone as she gave Jiang Shengjun her evaluation.
She stopped crying and felt full of strength.
She then told Ouyang Maomao, "Actually, Maomao is also androgynous and has an independent personality. That's why you can control your emotions so well, while I can't, but I will try to become that kind of person. I think I don't truly love Jiang Shengyun. The first time I met him, I just thought he was handsome; it was just my hormones acting up. After getting to know him better, I felt that he was financially well-off and could provide a good guarantee for my child in the future. My marriage to him was mostly driven by selfish motives and weighing the pros and cons. This is not the kind of love I want at all."
Ouyang Maomao pulled her up and sat her down beside her, laughing so hard her legs almost gave way. "You're quite self-aware, hahaha..."
The atmosphere quickly became lively, and the two sisters had a serious heart-to-heart talk.
Ouyang Maomao wanted to persuade her not to get a divorce because she had already found balance in the relationship.
When Jiang Shengjun and Su Wanwan were together, she didn't feel awkward being in the middle.
As long as it doesn't affect their relationship, it's fine.
In reality, Ouyang Maomao also wanted to get some clues about the key to the Hall of Mental Cultivation from Su Wanwan.
As always, she objectively analyzed the situation with Su Wanwan, "But Wanwan, since you married Jiang Shengjun, you have to be responsible for your marriage. If you get divorced, what will the Jiang family think?"
Su Wanwan calmly smiled and replied, "When there is pressure whether to divorce or not, I can't think about love or not, nor can I think about what others think. What I need to think about is whether we will be happy together after the divorce."
Ouyang Maomao was quite clear-headed. "In reality, I don't want to be a vine clinging to a big tree. Why don't you not get a divorce? If you do, I probably won't be with him either."
Su Wanwan asked, "Why?"
"Because I might be labeled a mistress by the media, because Jiang Shengjun really does appear to love you in front of the media."
Su Wanwan wasn't worried about that. "You know what? We've been married for so long, and I've never properly met the elders of the Jiang family. Jiang Shengjun has never introduced me to his friends either. My grandmother said she wanted to meet her, but I didn't go. First, something came up, and second, I really didn't want to go. It's not because I don't know how to respect my elders, but because if I leave a bad impression on my grandmother, she'll urge Jiang Shengjun to get a divorce. I didn't think about the Jiang family properly when I was doing my live stream, and that was intentional. I'm also saving money to pay off all the debts I owe Jiang Shengjun, and then I'll leave with nothing."
Ouyang Maomao felt something was amiss. Her moves were completely unlike her former self. Perhaps she was also searching for the key to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and then establishing her own wealthy family instead of marrying into one.
