I skipped all the way home and met Xiaohu at the door.
Mom Xiaohu was extremely valiant. She was carrying two shopping bags, the second baby was sitting in the stroller, and the first baby was trailing behind her.
When Xiaohu saw me, she shouted, "Xingzai!"
She braked too suddenly. The "vehicle" behind couldn't avoid in time. The first baby bumped into Mom's thigh with a thud and plopped down on the ground, wailing loudly.
Xiaohu put down the shopping bags, but the second baby in the stroller was scared by the first one and joined in the chorus of crying.
In my life, I had never been bombarded by such ear - piercing stereo cries.
Wow. Kids really look cute, but they are terrifying to take care of.
After helping Xiaohu calm the kids down, I said in a disheveled state, "I really admire you, Xiaohu."
"Admire what? Women just forget the pain after the wound heals. They keep having one baby after another," Xiaohu sighed. "If I could have another chance, I'd definitely just have one!"
I nodded. I'd never have a baby in my life.
Rong Bo wouldn't be home tonight. He said he was on a business trip out of town and told me to go to bed early.
However, I couldn't wait a single moment to share the great news that I'd passed the second part of the driving test with him.
It was just out of town. It only took an hour and a half by high - speed train.
It was the first time I'd ever given him a surprise since we got married.
Thanks to my father - in - law's help, I found out the hotel he was staying in and managed to get a room card.
I turned off all the lights and hid behind the curtain.
At ten o'clock at night, I sent a message on WeChat: [I'm going to sleep. Are you still busy?]
Rong Bo: [I'm almost at the hotel.]
Me: [You've worked hard, hubby!]
Rong Bo: [Go to bed early.]
Rong Bo: [Wife.]
Hmm. So sweet!
I waited motionless for about three minutes. Then I heard the sound of a key card being swiped outside the door. I stayed put, planning to pop up unexpectedly after he entered the room.
However, it seemed that there was more than one person walking in. The light came on. I heard Rong Bo's voice, "Why did you drink so much... baby..."
Curiously, I lifted a corner of the curtain slightly. Through the thick curtain, I saw a woman with waist - length hair and a supermodel - like figure leaning on Rong Bo's shoulder. He was holding her by the waist and dragging her staggeringly towards the master bedroom...
At that moment, a song started playing in my head: [I should be outside the window, not inside. To see how despicable you two are!]
The kind of plot that only appears in cheesy ethical dramas had actually happened to me!
I was so angry that my blood seemed to be flowing backwards! I just wanted to grab a knife and rush in to kill the cheating couple!
Killing is illegal.
Killing is illegal.
Killing is illegal.
After repeating this three times in my mind, I took out my phone with a trembling hand, turned on the video recording function, and tiptoed to the bedroom door, trying hard to hold back my anger.
That woman actually took the initiative. She straddled Rong Bo, and the two of them were entangled in a way that seemed both reluctant and eager.
If it were a Korean drama, at this moment, I would have rushed over, grabbed the woman's hair, slapped her hard a few times, and then shouted at Rong Bo, "Hey! You damned guy! Do you want to die!"
If it were an American drama, at this moment, I would have shot the cheating couple on the bed and then rearranged the scene to make it look like a suicide for love.
But for this kind of cheating theme, the revenge - themed Japanese drama with a yandere touch was more exciting.
So, I recorded all the evidence in the dark. Then, I walked away without looking back.
When I got home, I took a shower and had a good sleep, as if nothing had happened.
The next evening, Rong Bo came back. He walked over looking exhausted and leaned down to hug me.
I said with a smile, "Welcome back, hubby."
Rong Bo: "Yeah."
I threw the divorce agreement and the confidentiality agreement on the coffee table. When Rong Bo saw them, his hand paused as he was untying his tie.
I said calmly, "Now the country has introduced a new policy. There's a one - month cooling - off period for divorce applications before the divorce can be officially finalized. So let's apply for divorce now, okay?"
Rong Bo: "..."
During this period, we'd been so loving. I thought he'd question me about why I'd suddenly turned cold - hearted. Then he'd bring up what happened last night, try to explain his relationship with that woman with a lame excuse, or simply admit that marrying me was all part of his plan...
However, after a long pause, he finally continued his action. He untied his tie and threw it aside. Then, he picked up the pen I'd given him and signed the divorce agreement without a moment's hesitation.
Me: "I'll return the one billion and the diamond ring to you."
Rong Bo: "No need."
Me: "Thank you."
Rong Bo: "..."
When dealing with a cheating man, when negotiating terms, take as much as you can. Don't let them off easily!
Rong Bo stood up and said, "I'll leave this house to you."
Me: "Thank you."
Rong Bo: "Someone will come to pack my things tomorrow."
Me: "Okay."
He left without even taking his tie.
I got married and divorced at 22, and finally got one billion yuan, a ten - carat diamond ring, and a villa.
It was so awesome, right?
Right!
But...
Why are you crying, Song Wenxing?
The next day, I was listless. I didn't get up until noon. Then I got a call from Grandma and was told to go over for lunch.
Today, Grandma taught me how to make squirrel - shaped fish in person. From frying the fish to boiling the sauce and finally pouring it over the golden - brown fish, I was happy all the time.
But when I took a bite, my heart suddenly felt blocked. I vomited out everything in my mouth with a heave.
Grandma was shocked. "What's wrong, Xingzai?"
I couldn't eat anything from morning till now. My chest felt heavy, as if there was a stone in it. I said gloomily, "I don't know."
Grandma: "Could you be pregnant?"
I gave her a sidelong glance. "Unless you poked holes in the condoms."
Grandma said angrily, "How could I do such a despicable thing!" Then she hesitated for a moment. "I won't do it, but it doesn't mean others won't..."
Me: !!!
Grandma sent someone out, and they came back with a bunch of pregnancy test sticks in just five minutes.
I couldn't wait to take a test. Oh my!
Two lines!!!
It couldn't be true! I quickly took another test, and then another...
Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore. I burst into tears and cried, "Grandma... What should I do... I'm pregnant..."
Grandma rushed in and hugged me. "Don't cry, Xingzai. This is a good thing!"
Good thing my ass!
I cried and said, "Rong Bo cheated on me!"
Grandma: "Impossible!"
I took out my phone and showed her the video. "Actually, I still had a glimmer of hope that it might be a misunderstanding..."
After Grandma watched the video, her kind face suddenly turned icy. The gentle and elegant old lady actually started swearing. "This is fucking conclusive evidence! There's no point in having any illusions! Wake up, Xingzai! A cheater either cheats never or cheats a million times! Don't have the slightest illusion about this kind of scumbag! Don't give him a chance to ruin your life!!!"
I was startled by Grandma. She was so scary when she got angry!
I said, "I told him about the divorce yesterday. I thought we'd have a fight and clear things up. If there were misunderstandings, we could explain them. But he signed the agreement without saying a word and even left with nothing..."
A blood - thirsty look flashed in Grandma's eyes. "Don't be stupid, Xingzai."
I asked nervously, "So... what should I do now?"
Grandma gritted her teeth, ready to take action against the "grand - grandson - to - be". "Get rid of it!"
Me: !!!
