Chapter 138 - Good Wife (1/2)

He Yi couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Yu Shujun’s eloquence. “This is the first time I’ve heard someone talk about sowing discord so grandly! Do you want me to divorce Liangze? I’m telling you, don’t even think about it!”

Yu Shujun seemed to be stunned. She took a deep breath and turned to look at Yi Liangze. “Liangze, I…”

“Sister Yu, you don’t have to say it.” Yi Liangze raised his head and waved his hand. “I know what you mean!”

Yu Shujun held back her tears and nodded slightly. “With your words, it doesn’t matter how many misunderstandings He Yi has about me!”

What she meant was that she cared about Yi Liangze’s opinion of her. As for what He Yi thought of her, it didn’t matter.

He Yi only sneered, her eyes cold and full of vigilance.

Yu Shujun seemed to have realized that it was time for her to leave, she said, “The two of you should have a good talk! Try to resolve any conflicts that can be resolved. For the sake of the two children, it’s better to continue going forward. If it’s not suitable… You should also have a good talk. As husband and wife, even if you can’t be supporters, you can’t be enemies, right?”

“Thank you for your concern, sister Yu!” He Yi sneered and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll never get a divorce. You should stop thinking about it as soon as possible!”

Yu Shujun smiled helplessly at Yi Liangze. “He Yi’s misunderstanding of me is too deep. I won’t explain anything. Fortunately, you understand me!”

Yi Liangze pursed his thin lips and didn’t respond.

However, Yu Shujun noticed that he had already put out the cigarette quietly. He even pushed the window open and turned on the ventilation fan. She suddenly felt discouraged. She felt that her efforts tonight might have been in vain. This useless man did not even think of taking the opportunity to subdue He Yi. He was as cowardly as usual.

Because He Yi hated the smell of smoke, he never smoked in front of her. No matter how angry he was, he did not make an exception! This meant that He Yi’s position in his heart was the same as before. There was no change at all.

At most, he was just trifling with a man’s emotions and temperament! Moreover, he did not dare to play around in front of He Yi. He only dared to pour out his grievances in front of her.

Useless man!

When Yu Shujun left, she was filled with anger. This was also the first time she was disappointed with Yi Liangze.

Suddenly, she understood Wang Han’s thoughts and actions — if she couldn’t get him, she would destroy him!

Instead of watching him ingratiate himself in front of another woman, the feeling was torture! It was better to destroy him! It was better to destroy him! It was better to destroy him!

After leaving Yi Liangze’s living room, Yu Shujun’s heart was burning with anger. When she reached the end of the corridor, she happened to see Qi Lin poking his head out. She called out to him.

Qi Lin, who originally wanted to escape, could only stop in his tracks and look at her guiltily. “Young master, is still drinking?”

Without a word, Yu Shujun walked over and gave him two slaps on the left and right.

Qi Lin didn’t seem surprised by the slaps. There was no surprise on his face, only frustration. He lowered his head and obediently waited to be reprimanded.

“Who told you to tell her that Yi Liangze is here?” Yu Shujun wanted to strangle Qi Lin to death. “Don’t tell me that you don’t know that I’m asking you! Do you think that you are a living God and know everything?”

Qi Lin explained in a low voice, “Young master has been drinking. I think that young madam can persuade him…”

“Am I a dead person?” Yu Shujun was about to go crazy from anger. Despite her excellent upbringing, she could not help but raise her voice. “Am I going to watch him drink himself to death without trying to persuade him?”

Unexpectedly, Qi Lin retorted fearlessly, “You’ve been trying to persuade him the whole night, but he doesn’t seem to be smoking one less cigarette or drinking one less glass of wine!”

“…” Yu Shujun was rendered speechless by him.

Indeed, Yi Liangze had stopped drinking and smoking at that moment because of He Yi’s arrival.

“The husband and wife are in conflict, and they are fighting and sleeping together. Why do you have to go to such lengths?” Qi Lin looked at Yu Shujun, he carefully advised her, “In the future, don’t meddle in the husband and wife’s affairs. Don’t waste your energy! Besides… young master truly loves the young madam. You look like a third party…”

Yu Shujun suddenly flew into a rage and started beating Qi Lin. She had always been elegant and noble. She had never lost her composure. Only in front of Qi Lin could she not care about her image.

Qi Lin never fought back. He tried to retreat, afraid that she would hurt him in a moment of anger. “Calm down! Don’t hurt your hand!”

“Get lost!” Yu Shujun pointed at Qi Lin’s nose and shouted angrily, “Don’t let me see you again!”

He Yi slowly walked to Yi Liangze’s side and sat down. She reached out and stroked his forehead. She had been feeling a headache, perhaps because she was too tired. It was almost one o’clock in the morning.

Yi Liangze looked at her. He didn’t know if it was because of the lights, but her face looked pale and without any color. Although he was a little worried about her, his anger hadn’t subsided. He only looked at her coldly.

“I’m sorry.” He Yi apologized to him. “I was so busy that I forgot to give you a call. I forgot that you’ve been thinking about me! In the future… I’ll be careful!”

Yi Liangze pursed his thin lips tightly and still did not speak.

He Yi only felt physically and mentally exhausted. She forced out a smile and said, “I’m tired. I don’t have the strength to go home again! Let’s rest here tonight!”

Yi Liangze’s expression became even uglier. He finally said, “Since you’re so tired, why did you call him for so long on the way back?”

He Yi was stunned. She didn’t expect him to find out so quickly. Then, after thinking about it again, she understood. As long as he wanted to know, nothing could be hidden from him! “Because of some things about Wan Wan, I need to communicate with him…”

“I think you need to communicate with me more about Wan Wan’s matter!” Yi Liangze expressed grievance and dissatisfaction in his heart. “I am Wan Wan’s biological father!”

“But…” He Yi did not have the strength to argue with him. She reached out to hold his big hand and announced that she had given up. “Can we discuss this matter tomorrow? I have a headache!”

Yi Liangze’s expression changed. He grabbed her wrist and touched her forehead in surprise. “You have a fever!”

“Do I have a fever?” He Yi was in a daze. She had always thought that she was too tired, but it turned out that she was sick.

“Why are you still working so hard when you’re sick?” Yi Liangze felt heartache and self-blame. At this moment, all the dissatisfaction with her turned into heartache and regret. She did not know how to feel heartache for herself, so how could he have ignored her. He quickly called Doctor Zhang and asked him to come over to see her. “You don’t want to live!”

She snuggled into Yi Liangze’s embrace and felt weak all over. “I’ve been tempering my body recently, so why would I get sick?”

Hearing her words, Yi Liangze could not help but shake his head. “No matter how strong your body is, you’ll still get sick! Do you think you’re Superman or King Kong?”

When doctor Zhang came over, he measured He Yi’s temperature. It was indeed a fever, but it was not serious, just 38 degrees Celsius. He said that it might be a cold, so he did not suggest an infusion. He just needed to prescribe some medicine for her to take.

Yi Liangze personally fed He Yi the cold medicine and could not help but say, “I found that you catch colds easily!”

It had been more than two months since the last time she caught a cold, and she caught a cold again!

“Yes, my physique is poor!” He Yi was somewhat helpless about this, but she was also satisfied. “In the past, I caught a cold once a month, but now I catch a cold once every two months. This means that my physique is slowly improving! Moreover, the fever is not serious, so I don’t need to use IV fluids and only take medicine. There’s still progress!”

Yi Liangze sighed, feeling both distressed and helpless. “Rest early!”

He carried her into the bedroom in the living room and gently placed her on the bed. He helped her take off her shoes and clothes and covered her with the blanket. Then, he turned around and prepared to leave

“Where are you going?” He Yi quickly grabbed his big hand and asked worriedly.

Yi Liangze was stunned. He did not expect her to have such a big reaction. “I’m going to take a shower!”

There were cigarettes and alcohol. He was afraid that the smell on his body would affect her.

“Don’t go!” He Yi was not willing to let him go. If he ran away again, she would not have the strength to look for him. She did not give him the chance to make a mistake because once he made a mistake, it would be irreversible. “Sleep with me!”

How could he dare to disobey his wife’s order? Although Yi Liangze was in a bit of a dilemma, after all, he had a slight mysophobia. He was not used to sleeping without taking a shower. However, He Yi refused to let go, so he obviously could not bear to break free from her.

“You’re not afraid that I’ll smother you, so I’m going to sleep!” Yi Liangze took off his clothes with one hand, and a familiar heat lit up in his eyes as he looked at her.

He Yi knew this guy’s character, so she turned her head away. Of course, she would not let him leave, but she also did not have the strength to satisfy his desire. She knew that he was in danger now, and if he ran out, he might do something. So, she had to watch him.

When Yi Liangze took off his clothes and lay down beside her, his big hand skillfully caressing her, she whispered, “My head hurts!”

So, the big hand obediently withdrew. He kissed her forehead gently and then patted her gently like a baby. “Go to sleep!”

“I want to listen to a song!” He Yi closed her eyes, and her whole body seemed to float up. She knew that she was extremely tired, coupled with a cold and fever, and her physical strength was severely exhausted. When she opened her eyes, she was in a half-asleep and half-awake state. But she still did not dare to sleep and held his big hand tightly. “Sing me a song!”

Sing? Yi Liangze did not expect her to have such a hobby! After being stunned for a while, he asked her, “What song do you want to listen to?”

“Any song will do!” He Yi’s sleepiness was getting stronger, and her voice was becoming unclear.

Yi Liangze could not help but have a thought. He asked, “Is there anyone who sings to you before you go to sleep?”

“Yes.” A warm smile appeared on the corner of He Yi’s lips.

“Who?” Yi Liangze’s expression and tone turned cold.

“My Father!”

“…”

*

He Yi gradually fell asleep amid his singing. She dreamed that when she was young, her father’s warm and big hand was holding her hand. He never let go of her hand and never gave up.

Her father’s big hand made her feel extremely safe. Because in her memories, he never gave up on her, never hurt her. There was only warmth and care.

After many years, the man who supported her became her husband, with the same deep love and gentleness, the same delicate love. She wanted to eat candy, she wanted to listen to music, she wanted to kiss, hug, and be held high, but they were all unconditionally satisfied.

In the dream, there was beautiful pink everywhere, and under her feet was the endless rose garden. The man beside her always followed her to smile and see the flowers bloom to the brim.

*

He Yi woke up from her sweet sleep. After she woke up, she habitually reached out to touch him. The man beside her had already left.

She opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment. After a while, she remembered that this was Yi Liangze’s living room at the Banquet.

She rubbed her forehead. The fever had subsided, but her entire body was still lazy. She could not muster the slightest strength.
