When she spoke up to this point, Ye Duowei’s face was covered in tears. She gazed at the night outside the car window, "What did I gain by marrying you? All I got was a body full of ailnts!
Because I cried too much, my eyes are always unbearably dry now. I lost the child, and I was heartbroken. Even if part of it was my fault! But did you ever console ?
You and your whole family blad , resented ! Did you ever show a kind face afterward?
You neglected ! Loathed ! Even when I was in the hospital after being beaten by your sister, because my mom got into a fight with your family, in the end, it seed like you divorced because you couldn’t take it anymore!
But in reality? Wasn’t it because you had long wanted a divorce? You were just waiting for the right mont! But so what if you divorced ? Li Si already has a child with soone else; you might as well give up that fantasy already!"
Yin Xian sighed deeply, attempting to speak calmly with her, "Ye Duowei, do you know? You’re always so extre, only seeing how others have wronged you! But you ignore the monts when others have been good to you! I have to admit, the failure of our marriage wasn’t all on you, I bear responsibility too!
But at the root of it, it was your lack of trust! Today, I’ll say everything I’ve held back: you always suspected I had sothing with Li Si!
Now, I’ll seriously tell you: I did like Li Si back then, but she never had any interest in . As for that childhood photo of hers you were always so hung up on, I stole it once when I delivered sothing under Aunt Han’s na and took it while she wasn’t looking!"
Ye Duowei could hardly believe what she was hearing. She had always believed sothing must’ve happened between Yin Xian and Li Si. Otherwise, how could he have a childhood photo of hers?
"But later you two..." Ye Duowei asked, her voice trembling with uncertainty, as mories of seeing Li Si with her husband many tis flashed through her mind.
Yin Xian smirked bitterly, "There was absolutely nothing between us! But there is sothing I did hide from you! When you hit Zhou Rou at the bar back then and caused her to lose her job, I felt guilty and went back to apologize to her on your behalf.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Rou used an excuse to invite out for a al and spiked my drink. At that ti, it was Li Si and her mother-in-law who happened to pass by and saved ! The doctors later said the dose of the drug was high, but thankfully, I received treatnt in ti."
To Yin Xian, this incident was a humiliation, but at this mont, he decided to tell the whole truth.
Ye Duowei was no longer the person he rembered, and he didn’t want to bring unnecessary trouble into Li Si’s life anymore!
"Why didn’t you ever tell ?" If he had told her this, would she have obsessed over it so relentlessly?
Ye Duowei now regretted everything deeply. If she hadn’t misunderstood Yin Xian back then, perhaps she wouldn’t have gone after Zhou Rou! And maybe later at the Han Family’s gathering, she wouldn’t have impulsively caused such irreparable consequences?
Yin Xian let out a self-deprecating laugh, "Dare I tell you? If I told you, you would’ve gone to cause trouble for Li Si. What would her mother-in-law think of her then? And your relationship with her was already so complicated! Could you have let it slide?" Yin Xian only felt exhausted.
Ye Duowei’s mind kept replaying the things she had said and done in the past. Yes, if she had known Li Si had anything to do with it, she definitely would’ve stord over! She wouldn’t have believed any of it!
But now, with things as they were between them, Yin Xian didn’t need to lie to her anymore!
Yin Xian cast her a helpless glance, unwilling to continue the topic. He hadn’t co here to explain himself, "Ye Duowei, I’ve said everything there is to say! You claim soone sent you that video; don’t you have any clue who it might have been?"
He believed Ye Duowei wasn’t lying about this, but who could’ve done it?
Ye Duowei shook her head, "I really don’t know! It was sent to by courier! But I suspect it must’ve been soone who knows both of us!"
Yin Xian rubbed his chin in brief contemplation. He had to find out who this person was.
Ye Duowei thought back to their ti together, scene after scene, and tears poured from her eyes again. She couldn’t understand how she and Yin Xian had ended up here!
Once, he had loved her so much!
But it seed she had ruined it all!
Now she had beco this person! She used to hate everyone! But now she hated herself the most!
...
Bai Shasha and Xu Er ca back today. Li Si had Aunt Liu purchase a variety of fresh ingredients early on, preparing to host them warmly at ho.
As her pregnancy advanced, she grew more cautious. She usually avoided large gatherings, and besides, Bai Shasha loved Aunt Liu’s cooking.
Bai Shasha brought back a bunch of North City specialties and snacks for Li Si.
The two of them started a lively chat as soon as they t.
Bai Shasha shared stories of bringing Xu Er back for her grandmother’s grand 60th birthday, describing it as both remarkable and spectacular!
It turned out Bai Shasha’s grandmother had thrown an extravagant celebration for her 60th birthday, prompting Bai Shasha to return ho.
Later, Mrs. Bai had specifically discussed with her the idea of introducing her boyfriend, taking advantage of the occasion for him to make an appearance!
So things Mrs. Bai didn’t state outright, but given the grand nature of the event, most of her close colleagues from work were invited as well.
This included Cao Yufan’s mother. Everyone now knew that Cao Yufan had returned from Beijing, was preparing to take the civil service exam, and had a girlfriend—the girl who had interfered in Bai Shasha and Cao Yufan’s relationship back then!
If Shasha had gone back alone, what would people think of her? And besides, she wasn’t single anymore, and her boyfriend seed to have excellent qualifications. Why keep hiding him?
It was a perfect opportunity to make a statent! To stop Cao Yufan’s mother from constantly making snide remarks at work!
Cao Yufan’s mom had likely heard about Bai Shasha dating a wealthy man and couldn’t resist making sarcastic comnts about it.
Mrs. Bai wasn’t one to back down. There had been a few almost public confrontations between them at work.
This had escalated into a full-on rivalry! Comparing families, husbands, children, and partners!
After Bai Shasha and Xu Er returned, they found out about this. Mrs. Bai had a very favorable first impression of Xu Er—she truly appreciated him! She even referred to the old saying, seeing the future son-in-law only to grow more pleased over ti.
anwhile, Mr. Bai remained cautious. He worried deeply about incompatibility between their families, fearing it would make his daughter unhappy in the future!
Especially after hearing Mrs. Bai bombard Xu Er with questions and interpreting his answers, his concerns only grew!
Could such a wealthy family truly harmonize with theirs?
They were from two entirely different worlds, after all!
Mr. Bai privately shared his concerns with Mrs. Bai, but she quickly dismissed them with a scolding. "At this point, why are you worrying about such things?"
"As long as he treats Shasha well, family background shouldn’t matter so much!" she insisted.
"Cao Yufan seed perfectly matched with our family in terms of background, didn’t he? And how did that turn out?"
"He still got snatched away by soone else! Look at how smug his mother is now—isn’t it all because that girl’s family had better resources?"
Mr. Bai thought about it and agreed. From all the little things, it was clear that Xu Er genuinely cared for Shasha. So, in the end, he gave his blessing.
Xu Er pulled out all the stops and managed to win over both his future father-in-law and mother-in-law in just one day! (To be continued.
