We agreed to divorce at the expiration date, why do you regret it, Mr. Fu?

I was the one who pushed her into the fire pit...

Thinking of this, Wen Litao felt anxious and blamed himself.

“Cough, cough cough cough!!”

He was filled with grief and anger, holding his chest and coughing violently, his face flushed with sickly color.

Xu Hui stepped back and put the tea leaves she brought on the ground with a look of disgust.

"This is what Ruoshi's mother asked me to give you," she said. "Since you are not feeling well, I won't disturb your rest. I'll leave first."

"No," Wen Litao picked up the tea leaves, "I don't want them. Take them away, take them away!"

After saying that, he caught up with Xu Hui and threw the tea leaves in the corridor with a bang, scaring everyone who passed by.

Xu Hui was also startled, and she immediately quickened her pace and ran away.

Tea leaves were scattered all over the floor. Wen Litao covered his chest with his hands. The excruciating pain made him sweat coldly.

He lost his balance and fell to the ground while holding onto the door.

When the caregiver came back and saw that the old man’s face was pale, she hurried to call a doctor.

She was about to call Wen Zhixia, but the old man stopped her and said, "Guaiguai worked the night shift yesterday and is sleeping now. Don't disturb her."

The old man felt heartbroken when he thought about how his granddaughter endured so much humiliation for him.

Soon, several doctors came to check the old man's body. After confirming that there was no major problem, they told him to rest more.

The next morning.

Wen Zhixia received a WeChat message from her caregiver, Cao Yan, asking her to go see Wen Litao.

When she went to see him before, the old man was afraid that it would affect her work, so he didn't let her go every day, saying that it would affect his rest.

Wen Zhixia now obeys him in everything. If he doesn't let her go, she won't go.

Thinking that she had no shifts scheduled these few nights, she sent a message to Fu Ruoshi.

Grandpa now wants to see her and him together. As long as Grandpa can get better soon, she can ask him for help.

[Do you have time these days? Let's go visit Grandpa together.]

When Fu Ruoshi received the message, he was drinking with someone at a club in New Jersey, New York.

The Chinese CEO sitting next to me glanced at the words and said with a smile, "Is your wife urging you to go home?"

"You're pushing me so hard." Fu Ruoshi pretended to have a headache. "You know I'm the busiest person right now, but you don't understand how hard it is for me."

He didn't want to give his partner the impression that he was too henpecked, so he replied to Wen Zhixia ambiguously.

Wen Zhixia felt a little disappointed after receiving the reply.

three days later.

evening.

Wen Zhixia got off work from the outpatient department and prepared to go to the inpatient department to see Wen Litao.

As she reached the door, she heard a familiar voice.

"What are you talking about?" the man said. "I don't think it's reasonable to take back what I gave away."

Then came Wen Litao's cautious voice, "Oh, this won't do, Mr. Fu, this really won't do..."

Grandpa's humble voice made Wen Zhixia feel heartbroken.

She pushed the door open and went in, and saw Fu Ruoshi standing in front of her grandfather's bed, frowning slightly and looking unhappy.

"Why are you being so mean to my grandfather when I'm not around?" Wen Zhixia glared at him angrily, "He can't be provoked, don't you know?"

She looked at Wen Litao lying on the bed. After not seeing him for two days, the old man had inexplicably lost weight, and his cheeks, which had been slightly rosy before, had become dull again.

"What did you say to my grandfather?" Wen Zhixia looked at the property deed and gold card on the bed. "Did you irritate him with your words? What are you doing with this? Can you please stop putting pressure on him right now?"

Fu Ruoshi was stunned.

"I'm not vicious."

He came back from the United States today to do some business in the branch office. He went straight to the affiliated hospital as soon as he got off the plane. He also brought two gold cards and the property certificate of a large flat in the city center.

Wen Zhixia didn't want anything. He thought he could just give it to her grandfather, but after a long time, the old man still refused to accept it.

Fu Ruoshi was a little anxious to refuse him. He had never been rejected since he was a child, but he kept running into obstacles in this Wen family.

He was very embarrassed and spoke a little louder, and Wen Zhixia heard it.

Wen Zhixia has been under a lot of pressure taking care of her grandfather these days, and she tends to overreact to the slightest disturbance.

"Mr. Fu didn't mean to me," Wen Litao quickly explained, "Dear, don't misunderstand him."

When he saw Wen Zhixia, the old man remembered the man who said she was a mistress the day before yesterday.

He wanted to find out the truth, but Fu Ruoshi was also present, so he didn't know how to start and was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat.

While Wen Zhixia was calming the old man down, she asked Fu Ruoshi, "Who asked you to come? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Fu Ruoshi felt even more embarrassed when he was criticized by her in front of outsiders.

"I flew back for more than ten hours just to hear you scold me, right?"

Wen Zhixia: "You didn't come back for me."

"Why didn't I come back for you?"

"I don't have the ability to call you back from the United States."

Wen Litao looked at the two men on the verge of a fight, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

In fact, if my granddaughter had this stubborn temper in front of Xiao Fu, it would be better than the timid one I imagined.

What he feared most was that his granddaughter would abandon dignity for him.

But the old man still tried to dissuade them, advocating for reconciliation rather than separation, saying, "Stop arguing, stop arguing, and talk it over nicely."

As soon as he advised, Fu Ruoshi shut up.

He shut up, and Wen Zhixia also shut up.

The two of them just stared blankly.

Wen Litao hesitated for a long time and asked the question in his heart.

"Since you two are here, I want to hear the truth. Xiao Fu, why did you marry our Zhixia?"

Fu Ruoshi used the answer he had already thought of, "We were high school classmates, we know each other well, and we have a good emotional foundation. Aren't we a perfect match?"

Wen Litao looked at Wen Zhixia again, "Why did you want to marry him?"

"Grandpa, didn't I tell you all this..." Wen Zhixia lowered her head, "We were at the bar at the time, I was drunk, and I happened to run into him. After getting to know each other, we felt that we were quite suitable..."

Wen Litao's voice trembled slightly. "Then do you know that your behavior is called being a third party?"

third party?

After hearing this, Wen Zhixia and Fu Ruoshi were both a little confused.

In Wen Zhixia's opinion, although Fu Ruoshi has many romantic relationships, he is the type who has ambiguous relationships with others. He has never admitted who his boyfriend is, and he has never confirmed any relationship with a woman.

Love between men and women is a diversion for him. Once they are tied together, it becomes a burden to him.

So there is no such thing as a third party.

Wen Zhixia recalled the gossip she heard about Mao Qianqian that day, saying that she knew the third person and was the third person.

Could it be that grandpa heard some rumors?

"Grandpa, how could I be a mistress?" Wen Zhixia asked anxiously, "Don't listen to what they say. Even if I were to beg on the street, I wouldn't be a mistress."

Seeing her so decisive, Wen Litao became a little confused again.

"Then..." He wanted to ask, but didn't know how to start. He was even more afraid that he would say something wrong and offend the big Buddha in front of him.

Xu Hui’s words that day made him very scared.

If Fu Ruoshi was really just playing around with Zhixia, what would happen if the woman took revenge on Zhixia once they broke up?

No one protected her.

The old man was extremely anxious and speechless.

Seeing Wen Litao's silence and confusion, Wen Zhixia became even more anxious.

How to quickly prove that you are not a three?

Wen Zhixia was so anxious that her head dropped.

"Ruo Shi!" She was desperate and tried every possible means. "What are you standing there for? Say something! Tell my grandfather, am I a mistress?!"

"what?"

Fu Ruoshi almost couldn't hold back the smile.

In private, Wen Zhixia either called him "Hey", "Hi", or "Fu Ruoshi". Her tone was softer when they just got married, but now that they are getting closer to divorce, her tone is getting more impolite. Her attitude clearly says, "I'm going to resign. Do you think I'll pay any attention to you?"

He has always been unhappy about this, but he doesn't want to mention it, so as not to appear petty.

At this moment, it was the first time that he heard Wen Zhixia call his name seriously and ask for help seriously.

"What?" Wen Zhixia secretly kicked him under the bed, "Speak!"

Fu Ruoshi was hurt by her kick.

"Oh oh oh!" He came back to his senses and said seriously, "Grandpa, she's not! This is simply alarmist! How could Zhixia be the third? She is my legitimate wife, my only wife."
