Chapter 78 He Lost His Temper
"How can you talk like that? Even if I did something wrong to you, you have no right to say such things!"
"Look at you, always disheveled and unkempt like a madman on the street. You can't even utter a decent word. And you dare to threaten me? Can you beat me, or are you more capable than me?" Qin Yanlin said with a contemptuous sneer.
"What do you mean? You're looking down on me? Qin Yanlin, don't forget who went through all the hard times with you!" Deng Xiuzhen was also furious.
"You've lived a hard life with me? Have you ever lived a hard life with me? Since you married me, in every aspect of your life, whether it's food, clothing, or other necessities, you've never been worse off than your relatives and friends."
Have you ever farmed or done manual labor?
Have I ever let you work in the wind, rain, or scorching sun?
Also, you post pictures of your parents' home all day long, how many have you posted? Have I ever said anything to you?
"You still have the nerve to say you've been through hardship with me? You're utterly clueless!" Qin Yanlin said, getting more and more excited.
Deng Xiuzhen just watched his mouth open and close silently, unable to say anything.
What could she say?
refute?
What Qin Yanlin said is true.
Agree?
But Qin Yanlin's wealth was all because of her! Because she didn't want Qin Yanlin to follow the same path as in his previous life, and she didn't want him to overwork himself and die young.
Because she was reborn and knew what could make her rich, she secretly guided him and used all the money she earned from her stationery store to fully support Qin Yanlin's business venture.
But she forgot a saying: Men with money are prone to going astray.
Especially for young nouveau riche like Qin Yanlin, even if he himself has no wicked intentions, he cannot resist the temptation of many women.
Deng Xiuzhen was bewildered.
Regret? There's nothing to regret. In her past life, she lost her husband around this time.
Back then, she was under more pressure than she is now, and her children weren't as mature. The difficulties were far greater.
Regret is unnecessary, but what should we do in the future?
Continue? Qin Yanlin has clearly changed. Even if he hasn't cheated yet, he's not far from doing so.
Does this mean I have to either swallow my anger and keep chasing after mistresses every day?
What's the point of living then?
Should he not continue the marriage? Should he be widowed? With his own care and reminders, Qin Yanlin is in very good health now. If nothing unexpected happens, he can easily live to be seventy or eighty, and it is possible that he will live to be a hundred.
Divorce? The two of you have worked so hard to get to this point, and you've always dreamed of growing old together. Are you just going to break up like this?
What about the children? Will this cause them psychological harm?
"Are you mute?" Seeing Deng Xiuzhen's blank and dazed look, Qin Yanlin became even more disgusted and his temper flared up.
"What do you want me to say? Thank you for marrying me and giving me a good life?"
"Or are you right to look down on me? Do you want me to say for myself that I'm not good enough for you?" Deng Xiuzhen said coldly, a sneer on her lips.
"You! Deng Xiuzhen, I'm telling you, you better behave yourself! Otherwise, I'll divorce you! With your looks, even a ghost wouldn't want you without me!"
"Qin Yanlin! I'm asking you, are you having an affair? If you are, we're getting a divorce, and I won't spend another day with you!"
“You don’t need to test me. Do you think I don’t know what you’re up to? You just want to find fault with me and then incite the children to isolate me and target me, right?”
"I won't fall for your tricks. I know exactly what a short-sighted woman like you is thinking!" Qin Yanlin snorted coldly, got up, and left.
Deng Xiuzhen didn't ask, nor did she chase after them. She felt that if someone was going to leave, there was no point in chasing them.
If that day eventually comes, she will be very sad, but she will also accept it calmly.
She hoped her husband would live to be a hundred and that they would stay together forever. But what she truly desired was for her family-oriented and loving husband to live to be a hundred and for her to stay with the husband who treated her well.
She doesn't want a husband who forgets his roots after getting rich!
There was a knock on the door.
Deng Xiuzhen didn't move. She thought that Qin Yanlin had forgotten his keys or something else and had come back to get them.
The door was still ringing with knocks. Deng Xiuzhen got up to open it.
"Xiuzhen, did I disturb you?" Zhao Chunyan stood at the door, wearing a coat.
"Is something wrong?" Deng Xiuzhen was very disappointed, but deep down she still hoped that Qin Yanlin would come back.
"I have something to discuss, let's go inside and talk." Zhao Chunyan walked inside without waiting for Deng Xiuzhen's reply.
Deng Xiuzhen had no choice but to close the door and turn around to follow him inside.
"Xiuzhen, did you have a fight?" Zhao Chunyan asked with concern.
Deng Xiuzhen lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Zhao Chunyan sighed and said, "I heard you arguing and I saw your husband go out."
I was worried you might be feeling down by yourself, so I came to keep you company and talk to you.
Deng Xiuzhen remained silent, but her eyes began to redden.
"It's common for couples to argue, but don't resort to divorce every time you argue. Divorce is bad for the children."
"Besides, even if you get divorced, the man you find next might not be as good as this one," Zhao Chunyan advised, holding Deng Xiuzhen's hand.
"Does getting a divorce mean I have to find someone else? Can't we live on our own? Besides, I have children!" In her previous life, Deng Xiuzhen had watched a lot of Douyin and short videos, and there were many women on the show who were divorced and living carefree lives on their own.
"Many women have met the wrong man and want to live alone, but society doesn't allow it. If you get divorced, firstly, there will be a lot of gossip, and secondly, there will be disreputable people surrounding you, who will say that you seduced him."
The main problem is that it's bad for the children; their classmates will laugh at them. When they grow up and get married, potential partners will think twice if they hear they come from a divorced family.
“If we don’t get a divorce, how can we go on living like this? I can’t swallow this anger. Besides, our relationship is worse than that of strangers. Staying together will only deepen the conflict.” Having been given a second chance at life, Deng Xiuzhen doesn’t want to live according to other people’s opinions, and she doesn’t want to live a life of swallowing her anger.
For her, having a husband who understands and cares for her, and who supports her through thick and thin, is the fulfillment of her life.
But she can live without a man, and she can live very well.
She doesn't depend on men, and she certainly doesn't live her life according to a man's whims.
"Xiuzhen, I've been there. Everything is much harder after a divorce. I had a hard time even with a job, let alone you who just runs a small business."
"After a divorce, witches and ghosts will come knocking on your door..."
"Fire! Fire!" A panicked voice interrupted Zhao Chunyan.
The two rushed out, only to see flames rising from Yao Huaying's house, with thick smoke billowing out.
A gust of wind blew, and the flames shot directly into Deng Xiuzhen's house. She tried to go in to get something, but the thick smoke choked her, and tears streamed down her face. She could only cover her mouth and nose and run out.
In just the time it took to go in and out, the fire had already grown, and Deng Xiuzhen's house was engulfed in flames, just like Yao Huaying's house.
The alley was crowded with people: some carrying buckets, some barefoot, some not properly dressed, and children crying loudly after being woken up from their sleep...
The scene was utterly chaotic.
