“Wu Tong, why do you have to behave like this? I know I’m in the wrong. I shouldn’t be so foolish as to be blindly filial. I should have given you more respect as my wife.”
Li Xing felt that his biggest mistake was to be too filial without thinking for himself. He admitted that he had gone overboard on several occasions. Now that his mother had already passed on, they should’ve just let the matter go.
“Li Xing, I don’t wish to be married to you again. I don’t want to go back to you. We can’t be together anymore.”
After living with Li Xing for so many years, Wu Tong almost forgot how relaxing it was to be single.
She looked at Li Xing’s drunk face. She didn’t know how to feel.
“Li Xing, we are family. We may no longer be husband and wife, but we’ll still be family. We don’t have to be married.”
Li Xing was distraught and disappointed. He could not describe how he felt, nor could he describe the kind of pain radiating through his heart.
The pain was a reminder that he was wrong and he had missed the opportunity to make up for his mistakes all those years.
Li Xing kept pouring glasses of wine for himself.
Li Qingcang comforted his father. “Dad, don’t drink anymore.”
Li Xing waved Li Qingcang away. “It’s okay. There are plenty of rooms in Lang Garden.”
He wanted to be drunk.
He did not want to face his ex-wife while he was sober.
He recalled the photo of Wu Tong with Shang Yusi. Both of them were talented and good-looking. They looked like a good match. He saw Shang Yusi treating Wu Tong very well. He was very attentive to her needs and took good care of her.
When he looked at those photographs, he realized his mistake.
Just like what Xie Xuning said, he should have treated Wu Tong better. He should’ve loved her more. From the day Wu Tong decided to be with Li Xing, she only had him. If he did not treat Wu Tong well, her life would be very miserable.
“Li Xing, you’re drunk.”
Li Xing shook his head in denial. He was soberer than ever. He poured himself a glass of wine and clinked Wu Tong’s glass with it.
“Wu Tong, if you decide to marry again one day, please let me know. Remember to think of me first, okay?”
Wu Tong nodded. “Fine.”
Li Xing emptied his glass before adding, “My wife is the best wife in the world.”
Everyone was a little drunk that night, but they were all happy.
The X-Virus was such a deadly virus, yet Ye Linlang had found a vaccine for it. Ye Tianxin had already recovered.
It was wonderful news.
Even Li Qingcang drank more wine than usual. He hugged Ye Tianxin as he took in her scent.
“Qingcang, you’re drunk.”
Li Qingcang picked up Ye Tianxin. “Don’t worry. I won’t drop you.”
Although he did not drop her, he still wanted to tease her.
Ye Tianxin clung tightly to Li QIngcang. “Qingcang, you’re doing this on purpose.”
Li Qingcang planted a kiss on Ye Tianxin’s cheek.
“Yes, I did it on purpose.”
Ye Tianxin huffed.
“Tianxin, you should trust me. Even if I hurt myself, I won’t let you get hurt.”
Ye Tianxin giggled. “Yes, I know.”
As everyone was drunk on wine, Xie Xinghe’s driver drove him and Li Xingchen back to the Xie family’s mansion.
Wu Tong followed the couple home. She had reached a critical stage in her project and had been spending a lot of time in her laboratory.
Only Li Xing stayed on in the Lang Garden. He slept alone in the guest bedroom.
