Looking at the out-of-control Wang Xiaohong, a rare emotion finally emerged in Yu Mingyi’s unshaken eyes.
“When I married you, I didn’t think about divorce.”
“You liar! You look down on me and never want to sleep with me. You’ve wanted a divorce all along…” Wang Xiaohong covered her face and sobbed in pain. That unbearable past had always been a burden on her heart. She thought that Yu Mingyi looked down on her just because of that, but she never expected him to say he didn’t care.
“I don’t look down on you. I just didn’t take good care of you, and divorce would be better for your illness.”
“You’re lying, you’re lying!” How could a man not care about that? She had always felt deeply inferior about this matter and constantly sought to create trouble for herself which she hoped could prove her existence. She just wanted him to deny her words and directly say, “I don’t look down on you.”
But she didn’t know that using this wrong method to ask a man like Yu Mingyi could only backfire.
And when he finally said the answer she wanted to hear, it was too late to go back
“For the sake of the people we both care about, this marriage cannot continue. I’ll make arrangements for your treatment and life afterwards.”
“Yu Mingyi, if I didn’t make such a fuss and seriously tried to live with you, would you still divorce me? Would you treat me as your wife? Would you fall in love with a woman like me?”
Yu Mingyi fell silent, “There are no ifs in the world, but I can tell you that if you don’t cross my bottom line, I will treat you as my wife.”
But without love, perhaps they would be like countless other couples who have lived a plain life without any setbacks.
The concept of love was too abstract for Yu Mingyi. It was difficult for him to apply such an abstract thing to a specific person. His straightforwardness made it impossible to deceive this woman. Wang Xiaohong was responsible for her current situation, but the love she desired, he really couldn’t give.
Wang Xiaohong covered her face and cried, knowing that her title as the Yu family’s second daughter-in-law was definitely lost. She didn’t know where to go after the divorce…
“Although you didn’t help me the other day, I’ll still compensate you financially. I hope you can start a new life after the divorce. I have a cold personality and can’t take care of a woman’s thoughts, I apologize for the pain I’ve caused you.”
She didn’t understand why Yu Mingyi said she didn’t help him the other day?
Only Yu Mingyi knew the answer to that.
It took less than half an hour for Second Brother to enter the room to reach a divorce agreement with Wang Xiaohong, who hung her head and not spoken a word, as if she had become a different person.
No one knew how Yu Mingyi had managed to persuade her, but Xiao Qian could see that he must have played a ruthless card, making Wang Xiaohong totally regretful. However, there is no regret medicine in the world.
When Yu Mingyi and Wang Xiaohong were talking inside, Big Brother Yu had already asked a lawyer to draft the divorce agreement. Wang Xiaohong signed it with tears in her eyes, lingering over Yu Mingyi, but he resolutely signed without looking at her.
Boss Yu locked Wang Xiaohong in a small room to prevent her from changing her mind, and sent her to complete the divorce formalities at daybreak.
Yu Minglang and Xiao Qian left, leaving Second Brother Yu and Boss Yu to have tea.
“The compensation you gave her was more than I thought.” Eldest Brother poured a cup for his younger brother.
“Yeah.”
“Do you still feel like you owe her?”
“It’s my lack of consideration.”
“Second brother, sometimes you really don’t compare to the youngest, who seems chaotic but is very clear-headed. He knows very well who can be close to him and who can’t. I can’t let you go, I mean, you can’t not know what kind of crooked thoughts Wang Xiaohong’s brother has? Besides, Wang Xiaohong has tormented you for so many years, do you feel relieved now?”
Seeing Second Brother’s expression, Boss Yu knew that he was still bothered about it.
“Dad has always been proud of you. If you give up your dream because of this, he’ll be heartbroken.”
“It’s better to suffer a short pain than a long one.”
Big Brother Yu filled up his younger brother’s cup.
“Second Brother, our youngest brother is not the child who needed you to shoulder responsibility for him back then. You don’t have to worry about his future, and the trouble with tree attracting the wind won’t happen to our family. I have faith in my two younger brothers, and the Yu family won’t fall apart because of us three, you just do what you love.”
Big Brother Yu believed that the reason Second Brother chose Wang Xiaohong was to punish himself for the unresolved feelings about their colleague’s sacrifice years ago. Both younger brothers had unlimited potential for the future, and they couldn’t let family trivialities hinder their progress.
Second Brother Yu silently picked up his teacup and sipped, “Big Brother, you’re overthinking it. I didn’t want to change jobs because of Xiaohong’s help, and even if I did, it wasn’t the main reason.”
“Then what is it?”
Second Brother was a straightforward person, so if he said it wasn’t the main reason, it definitely wasn’t.
Even the cunning businessman, Boss Yu, couldn’t guess what was in the iceberg-like Second Brother’s heart.
Second Brother Yu picked up his teacup and stopped talking.
”I will tell Dad and Mom about your divorce tactfully, saying that you two are incompatible, they won’t object. Your job won’t let you go easily, it will take at least a few years, I hope you can get through it and not give up on the blue sky you love so much.”
Second Brother Yu looked at his reflection in the teacup and forced a smile.
“Yeah.”
When Yu Minglang took Xiao Qian home, it was already past three in the morning, and the street vendors selling fried dough sticks were setting up their stalls.
“Tell Second Brother to introduce Wang Xiaohong to our school’s Doctoral Supervisor, Liu Linlin. She can treat Wang Xiaohong.”
“Isn’t Wang Xiaohong’s problem just a gynecological disease?”
Xiao Qian shook her head.
“Gynecological disease is just a physical issue. Wang Xiaohong has an xaddiction.”
“What’s that?” It sounded like it wasn’t a good thing.
“The scientific name is called x Dependency Syndrome, which is a manifestation of anxiety disorder. In intimate behaviors, the brain secretes dopamine, which produces pleasure and forms a brief sense of happiness, thereby escaping anxiety. When I first met her, I discovered this from the analysis of her medications. After close contact today, I’m sure she has this mental illness.”
“Can you cure it?”
“Yes, the foundation of the treatment must be based on untangling the knots in her heart. I saw your Second Brother today, and he opened the knot for her. Although I don’t know how he did it, Wang Xiaohong will get better as long as she cooperates with the psychologist in the later stages. But Yu Minglang, I won’t treat her.”
“I didn’t plan on asking you to treat her either—I was just curious, why won’t you treat her?”
“Maybe it’s because I was born cold-blooded, but I have principles when it comes to treating patients. Whoever pays me more gets my attention, and I have no sympathy for those who can’t afford it and seek me out unless they can really touch me. Like your ex-second sister-in-law, who caused her own death, I don’t have the sympathy to deal with her. There are so many good people I can’t even take care of, and besides, Second Brother will pay for her medical expenses, so I can’t slaughter a fat lamb, so I won’t bother.”
Yu Minglang lowered his head and kissed her little mouth, “I just love your ruthless side..”
