Shu Shun's expression suddenly changed. No matter how angry He Shuping was usually, he would not talk nonsense without caring about his own face like today.
Shu Shunshi hadn't recovered from He Shuping's sudden change, and the corners of He Shuping's lips raised indifferently.
"Threaten you?
We have been in a relationship for many years, how could I think of threatening you?
Do you think I don’t know that you are keeping Manman in prison just to use her to get married?
Shushun, I used to think you were an upright man, but at some point, you turned out to be the same as those stinky fish and shrimps on the street, only caring about yourself and not caring about others.
I owe no one in my life except my three children.
I owe my children something I will never be able to repay in my lifetime.
I tell you, from now on, you will never even think about taking advantage of them.
If Manman doesn't like anything, I will never let her do it again."
He Shuping finished speaking word by word, wiped the tears from her face, and turned around with a kind face.
"Manman, go ahead and get out of this fire pit."
He Shuping endured the pain and said these words with tears that she had wanted to say for a long time but did not have the courage to say.
She pretended to be strong, which made Schumann feel distressed.
Schumann's soul seemed to be pulled away by a force, his body remained motionless, and his eyes showed endless loneliness and confusion.
Why does she feel so heartbroken when she sees He Shuping like this?
She should hate her.
Schumann held back his sour eyes that were about to burst into tears. After regaining consciousness, he turned around resolutely and walked out of Shu's house without any hesitation.
Shu Shun was almost furious.
As soon as Schumann left, He Shuping suddenly collapsed like a deflated rubber ball.
"Are you trying to force me to put you in a mental hospital?"
Shu Shun's body was shaking with anger, and he slammed his clenched fist on the dining table.
"Don't even think about it, I will try my best even for the sake of my children.
When we get divorced, not a cent of my property will be lost.
If you want that woman and that bastard to get in as soon as possible, then you have to act faster, otherwise I will regret it and we will die."
Shu Shunshi didn't want to believe that these words actually came from He Shuping's mouth.
She even boasted that she wanted to share half of the family property.
Why?
"It's okay to get a divorce. The Shu family is what it is today because I, Shu Shunshi, worked hard and fought hard. As a woman, don't you see your own position clearly?"
"No, the Shu family is here today because of my daughter's life.
You forced my son out of the house because of that bastard outside, and you wanted to send my daughter away for marriage.
Now that things have happened, do you think I still care about the money?
I can't let my child's sacrifice be in vain, nor can I let that bastard and that chicken be in vain.
I said you don’t have to agree, and then we’ll die.”
After He Shuping finished speaking, she elegantly wiped off her makeup with a handkerchief, got up and left the restaurant, which was as cold as winter.
She is gambling.
I bet on whether it is this family that is more important to Shu Shunshi, or the mother and son outside.
Although she already had a clear answer in her heart, she just didn't want to believe it and wanted to take a gamble.
After Schumann stumbled out of the Shu family's yard, he leaned against the wall and looked up at the starry sky above his head, filled with infinite sadness and vicissitudes of life.
She was determined to hate Shu Shunshi and He Shuping for the rest of her life, but why did He Shuping help her?
Schumann raised her head and sobbed silently. Sometimes, if it weren't for the only obsession in her heart, she would have the urge to die.
But after she went out for a walk, she realized that life is happy and painful.
While suffering, she also experienced the happiness that life brought her.
The only thing she wants to do now is to live well and see the world from a different perspective.
The blood on top of Schumann's head was still flowing down her forehead. She cried for a long time and didn't know where to go.
At this time, she was numb both physically and mentally, and could not feel the pain caused by the wound on her head at all.
In this way, Schumann walked forward step by step in despair.
The night was dyed with thick ink, and Schumann was like a headless fly in the night, walking around at will.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Schumann's vision went dark and he fainted.
***
As for Yang Lina, she slept right away until the next day. Li Jingming called Yang Lina several times before going to bed. Yang Lina whined in her sleep. No matter how Li Jingming bullied her, her double eyelids did not open.
That night, Yang Lina had a strange dream.
In the dream, she and Li Jingming were walking by the river talking and laughing. Suddenly two carps jumped out of the river, one red and one black, and jumped into Li Jingming's arms without any mistake.
Yang Lina saw this scene in her dream and stared at the fish in Li Jingming's arms in surprise.
"Ah, are these two fish also here to thank you for building the bridge? Look at how beautiful they are. This is the first time I have seen a fish jump into a person's arms on its own initiative."
Yang Lina giggled, and Li Jingming also laughed.
"This fish looks so beautiful."
Li Jingming muttered, and Yang Lina said again: "Let her go quickly."
Li Jingming shook his head: "Don't let me go. It would be great to take her home and raise her."
…
Yang Lina was woken up by Li Jingming the next day, and he miraculously stayed in bed today.
Yang Lina was bullied by someone's claws and her whole body was itchy. Her body also felt hot and uncomfortable. She fell asleep in a daze early in the morning and was tortured. Yang Lina groaned but was unwilling to leave the bed.
She felt that the bed must be pulling her, not wanting her to get up.
Li Jingming also wanted to spend the whole morning with his young wife, but there was someone waiting for him by the river.
Li Jingming reluctantly left Yang Lina in the end, put on his own clothes, helped Yang Lina find clothes and then lay down next to her. He took her into his arms with his rough hands and kissed Yang Lina's forehead again and again.
The sunshine outside the window shines brightly on Yang Lina's face, making her skin look milky white and exuding a pearl-like luster.
Yang Lina closed her eyes and stretched her smooth and delicate arms lazily.
The delicate kisses went all the way down from Yang Lina's cheek, and Li Jingming's hands were not obedient.
Yang Lina had a warm smile on her lips and moaned.
Li Jingming got into bed, and within a few minutes he rolled around on the bed with Yang Lina in his arms. With great difficulty, he got up from the bed and helped Yang Lina get dressed.
"Daughter-in-law, hurry up. You didn't have dinner last night. I cooked Xiaomi red date porridge and steamed sweet potatoes early in the morning. You can eat a bite before going to bed. I'll come back early to make whatever you want for lunch."
Li Jingming held Yang Lina in his arms, and Yang Lina raised her heavy eyelids.
"I feel like I am definitely going to die. My whole body hurts and I can't even open my eyelids."
Yang Lina pretended to be coquettish, and Li Jingming's face darkened, and he slapped Yang Lina twice on the butt, neither lightly nor hard.
