Chapter 182: Chapter 182 Two Choices_1
Actually, both Zhou Yongxian and Huo Linong were clear about Huo Jinlan’s intentions, and anyone with a brain could see it. That’s why they never said anything from start to finish!
Expressing baseless accusations would only invite Jing Tong and He Rongxi to bite back.
Huo Linong looked aloof, forcefully shrugging off Huo Jinlan’s hand and walking towards his study without looking back. As he passed by Yuan Xueshan, he stopped and looked down at her imperiously.
That gaze was cold in a way Yuan Xueshan had never experienced before.
“Li… Linong…” Yuan Xueshan stuttered, unable to form a complete sentence. Right now, she was in a state of total disarray, unable to fend for herself.
She even forgot to beg for Huo Jinlan earlier.
Huo Linong looked at Yuan Xueshan. His gaze was unapologetically indifferent and impatient. This woman, his wife for over twenty years, whether there was love or not, there should be at least an affectionate connection.
He had given her everything that a husband could give.
Respect, care, loyalty…
But she had worn all these items down.
“You have two choices.”
“You tell me. You say it…” She didn’t argue or explain any more. She would accept whatever was offered.
“Divorce or leave with He Jinlan?”
The light in Yuan Xueshan’s eyes died suddenly. She looked at him blankly, her face as rigid as if it was frozen. Her expression, a mix of hope, joy, unwillingness, and pain, was extremely ridiculous.
It took a long time for her to respond. She was laughing and crying as she said, “You… After all these years of marriage, is this how you treat me? Just because I did not bring mother from hospital yesterday?”
“Huo Linong–” She pointed at him, roaring, “Did a dog eat your conscience? Why don’t you go and ask around who among sons-in-law treats their mother-in-law like I have done? For all these years, I respected her like my own mother. Is this your way of repaying me? Where is your conscience?”
How foolish! Even now, she didn’t know what was wrong, not knowing the gravity of the matter.
A whole family can’t compare to one He Jinlan, let alone a husband, let alone a mother-in-law, not even an own son.
She’s truly deluded.
He could tolerate everything about her, except for his wife being ridiculously stupid.
“Eaten by a dog!” Huo Linong turned and walked away without a backward glance.
Yuan Xueshan collapsed on the ground, as if all her strength was drained from her. She felt like she had been soaked in ice, and then put in the fire.
She… She had tried so hard, her life had been so cautious, as if walking on thin ice.
And in the end, this was what she got?
“Mommy…” Huo Jinlan hugged Yuan Xueshan sympathetically. A hint of gloating and satisfaction flickered through her downcast eyes, but she comforted, “Mommy, don’t be sad. If daddy doesn’t want us, it doesn’t matter. I want you! I will always be your daughter.”
Unable to control herself any longer, Yuan Xueshan burst into tears.
“Mom… ”
Yuan Xueshan slowly pushed away Huo Jinlan’s hands, “Let me be quiet for a while.”
Huo Jinlan incredulously looked at her empty hand, filled with intense sadness and dissatisfaction. “Mom, daddy doesn’t want me anymore. Do you not want me either?”
“You have your own mother.”
“You raised me, so you are my real mother! You are my only mother. I don’t care if I have a biological one. For me, who raised me is more important than who gave birth to me.” Huo Jinlan sounded increasingly distressed and pained.
