I'm Gu Xichuan

It was already two in the afternoon, but Su Nianen still hadn't called her husband.

Initially, there weren't any expectations, but her husband had taken the initiative to ask for lunch together. She had gotten her hopes up for nothing.

Su Nianen laughed self-deprecatingly before turning off her phone.

She had specially applied for half a day's leave today, but now, she actually had nowhere to go. She stood on the streets in a daze, not knowing what she should be doing.

Beep beep—

Beep beep—

The car parked by her feet honked a few times before Su Nianen stopped daydreaming. She subconsciously took two steps back and looked at the car.

The broad man who got out of the car looked familiar. When Su Nianen saw him approaching her, she took two steps back.

"Miss Su."

Su Nianen looked up blankly, wondering if she knew him. She didn't.

When Su Nianen retreated again, the other party said, "I'm Gu Xichuan. I was once Professor Su's student. We met when I visited Professor Su five years ago."

Su Nianen opened her mouth. Five years ago…

She no longer remembered that.

Her father had a large number of students, and countless of them had visited personally. She had seen so many of them, too, and it was impossible for her to remember one of them from five years ago.

"Hello," Su Nianen replied politely.

Gu Xichuan asked, "Are you married?"

Su Nianen immediately frowned, unwilling to chat further. She forced a smile in response.

"Miss Su…"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu. I still have something to attend to. I'll leave first." Just as Gu Xichuan spoke, Su Nianen quickly interrupted him. Then, she strode across the road, leaving only the view of her slender back to Gu Xichuan.

Su Nianen had turned off her phone for the entire day, yet she couldn't help but turn it back on in the middle of the night. However, there was no message from her husband. Her hopes were dashed, and her emotions surged again.

He had long stopped loving her a long time ago, it seemed, but only now did she see it clearly.

It was 1:30 a.m. when Su Nianen arrived home.

The house was pitch-black. Snores came from her husband and mother-in-law's room. It was as if she had barged into this harmonious and peaceful house like an outsider.

When she entered the bedroom and saw her husband sleeping soundly on the bed, her heart ached.

He couldn't get through to her on the phone. Did he not want an explanation for that? Was he really that unworried that his wife hadn't returned yet, so late at night?

Su Nianen couldn't fall asleep the entire night, and her eyes were red.

Lin Wenfeng opened his eyes in the morning. Su Nianen was sitting beside him.

"Honey, I had a meeting all day yesterday. I was too tired." He still had to give a decent reason for not going yesterday.

Su Nianen said calmly, "Let's get a divorce! We can part on good terms. I don't want a single cent from the Lin family. I won't take a single cent from you, and I'll leave with nothing."

Lin Wenfeng jolted and sat up.

"What is it, honey? I apologize for yesterday. I've been too busy with work."

Su Nianen shook her head and chuckled. "Mom caused a scene in the hospital. People took videos and it was posted online."

"So what? The poster doesn't know you. What are you afraid of?" Lin Wenfeng retorted.

Su Nianen laughed in anger and swallowed her rage. Looking at her cold husband, Su Nianen no longer had any hope.

The mother-in-law pushed the door open and entered. "Feifei is almost done making dumplings. Su Nianen, you're still not coming out?"

Su Nianen frowned. Her mother-in-law always entered their bedroom without knocking.

"Hurry up!" She was furious.

Su Nianen took a deep breath. "Okay."

When Su Nianen came out, Li Feifei saw her and quickly greeted her. "Sister Nianen, quickly sit down. The dumplings are already in the pot. They'll be ready soon."

In a daze, Su Nianen realized that she was the guest.

She went into the kitchen to help, but her mother-in-law shooed her out. "You're clumsy. What can you even do?"

Half an hour later, hot dumplings were served.

Su Nianen prepared the bowls and chopsticks and said in a low voice, "I'll go get Wen Feng to eat…"

"I'll go." Li Feifei quickly pressed Su Nianen down. "Sister Nianen, sit down and eat first. I'll go get President Lin."

Before Su Nianen could reply, her mother-in-law threw a face at her and cursed softly, "You still have the audacity to eat when you can't give birth!"

Lin Wenfeng and Li Feifei sat at the table. Li Feifei was extremely attentive to her mother-in-law, making her smile.

The mother-in-law said, "Whoever marries our Feifei will be really lucky."

"I think so too. My mother said that my physique is good and that I can give birth to a strong son." Li Feifei immediately smiled and replied.

The mother-in-law's eyes lit up instantly. She was extremely envious. "Ah, that's right. Feifei has the body to give birth to a son."

She felt that it was a great pity that her daughter-in-law couldn't do the same.

Li Feifei changed the topic to Su Nianen. "Sister Nianen, when are you planning to have a child? Take advantage of your youth to give birth early and recover. Sister Nianen is so good-looking. Your baby with President Lin will look super cute."

Her mother-in-law glanced at Su Nianen from the corner of her eye. "Her body is weak. She needs to take some medicine to recuperate. Besides, it's not that easy to give birth. There are many girls who don't have the ability to give birth despite their youth."

Li Feifei quickly added, "Auntie, women giving birth is like humans eating rice. They're born with the ability. Those who can't give birth are all indecent in their private lives and mess around too much. Their bodies are damaged."

Lin Wenfeng frowned. "Feifei!"
