âI havenât even said anything yetâ¦â Hai Xiaotang mumbled, âActually, I just wanted to explain to you, you have misunderstood mom and dad. They donât really want us to break up, itâs justâ¦â
She was interrupted by Dongfang Yu before she could finish.
âJust to let us temporarily divorce and wait until we overcome this crisis, right?â
Hai Xiaotang was surprised, âHow do you know?â
Dongfang Yu darkly said, âEven if thatâs what theyâre thinking, you canât agree to it!â
âBut this is the best solution we have right now,â Hai Xiaotang whispered.
âThe best solution?!â Dongfang Yu immediately became angry, âHai Xiaotang, you actually think this is the best solution?â
Hai Xiaotang guiltily nodded, âYes. The person theyâre after is me, and everything theyâre doing now is to separate us. If I leave you, they wonât target you anymore and your family wonât object to you. You can also gather your strength. Isnât that a good thing?â
Dongfang Yu abruptly stopped the car.
He glared at her angrily and said, âDo you really think itâs a good thing for us to divorce?!â
ââ¦â Hai Xiaotang tried to soothe him, âItâs just a temporary divorce. After the matter is over, we can remarry.â
âCan it be the same?â Dongfang Yuâs gaze intensified, âDuring the time from the divorce to the remarriage, you are not my wife. Can that be the same?â
âBut we love each otherâ¦â
âWhat I want is not just your heart, but your whole being! You must belong to me completely, both in heart and by law! And for no reason will I divorce you, none at all!â
Hai Xiaotang didnât expect him to be this serious.
She sadly said, âDongfang Yu, I actually donât want this either, but Iâm really afraid for youâ¦â
âThereâs nothing to be afraid of!â Dongfang Yu interrupted her. He hugged her body and comforted her, âHai Xiaotang, you have to believe in me, Iâll take care of everything. Even though the road ahead is tough, I wonât divorce you. If I canât even protect my own marriage, how am I supposed to love you? Whatâs the point of me having everything else?â
Hai Xiaotang laughed, âYou donât have to make it sound so serious. Our divorce would only be temporary, and just knowing that you love me is enough. Dongfang Yu, thereâs really no need for us to clash head-on with them and suffer even more lossesâ¦â
Dongfang Yu suddenly snapped, âEven if the entire Dongfang collapses, I will never divorce you!â
âYouâ¦â Hai Xiaotang pushed him away slightly, utterly speechless, âAre you being too stubborn?â
âYes, I am being stubborn! So donât say anything else and donât overthink it. In any case, divorce is not an option!â
âButâ¦â
âHai Xiaotang, try saying that one more time?!â Dongfang Yuâs gaze suddenly turned sharp.
Hai Xiaotang immediately fell silent, but Dongfang Yu turned angry.
On the way back, he didnât say a word and his aura was completely dark.
Hai Xiaotang was somewhat confused, was he really that angry?
When they arrived home, Dongfang Yu went straight to the study room without saying a word. Hai Xiaotang sighed. It seemed he was really angry.
âMiss, what happened between you and the young master?â Mother Zhang came over to ask in confusion.
For the sake of looking after Hai Xiaotang, Dongfang Yu had asked Mother Zhang to move in as well.
Hai Xiaotang shook her head, âItâs nothing.â
Mother Zhang thought to herself, itâs obviously not nothing.
