Xia Yangyang doesn’t have many classes this semester.

After picking up a few textbooks for her specialized courses, Xia Yangyang planned to go home.

This was because class had not yet started.

At the school gate, she happened to run into Wen Xiaochu.

After saying hello, the two decided to go for grilled fish together.

During the meal, Xia Yangyang came clean: “Xiao Chu, I did not tell you about my marriage, there are some reasons.”

Wen Xiaochu was her roommate when they entered university and her best friend aside from Gong Xue’er.

Xia Yangyang felt she owed her an explanation.

However, Wen Xiaochu said: “I can understand, after all, such things are hard to share with others.”

Xia Yangyang let out a sigh of relief: “I kept this important thing from you, I thought you would be angry.”

Wen Xiaochu hesitated for a moment, then said: “Actually, I also have been keeping a secret from you …”

Xia Yangyang was taken aback: “What happened?”

Wen Xiaochu gritted her teeth and said: “Yangyang, actually, I have also been married for a while now, but I haven’t told anyone.”

Xia Yangyang was so surprised, her jaw nearly dropped to the floor.

Wen Xiaochu, with her sweet demeanor, friendly nature, excellent grades, and position as a medical student at the prestigious Neurology Hospital of A University—sharing the same major with Gu Zhaohan—seemed an unlikely candidate for sudden marriage.

She looked like a dutiful girl who spent all her time studying, conducting experiments, writing papers, and following professors for clinical experience, hardly interacting with boys outside of her major.

How come she suddenly got married?

Xia Yangyang asked: “When did this happen?”

Wen Xiaochu confessed: “Two years ago, I got married in Las Vegas when I was 18.”

The more Xia Yangyang thought about it, the more she felt something was amiss. At age 18, one is still underage to obtain a marriage license in their home country. The fact that Wen Xiaochu got married so young and overseas suggested a hidden story.

Before Xia Yangyang could question it further, Wen Xiaochu explained: “You must find it unbelievable, but the melodrama you see in TV shows happened to me. I was an orphan from a young age, I lived in an orphanage for 12 years before being adopted by a family. They cultivated me, financed my education, and planned my life meticulously. Since the day I was adopted, I knew I didn’t have any freedom. They were my benefactors, so whatever arrangements they made, I had no choice but to accept.”

Xia Yangyang saw deep-seated helplessness in Wen Xiaochu’s face.

Out of compassion, Xia Yangyang refrained from asking more questions. She could tell that Wen Xiaochu was not happy in her marriage.

Yes, how could a girl who was forced to marry at 18 experience love?

Xia Yangyang had heard stories of rich families adopting helpless girls to groom them as brides for their disabled sons who couldn’t find suitable matches. These girls’ lives were controlled, leaving them no room for autonomy.

She never imagined that such a thing could happen to Wen Xiaochu.

Seeing Xia Yangyang’s worried look, Wen Xiaochu said: “Never mind about me. Fortunately, he doesn’t like me either and constantly thinks about divorce. I’m just waiting for him to kick me out. That way, I can finally start living my own life.”

Wen Xiaochu didn’t mention who her in-laws were, and Xia Yangyang didn’t ask.

If it was bound to end anyway, there was no need to probe. Xia Yangyang had a similar mentality before.

Telling her about it today must have been a major decision for Wen Xiaochu.

Xia Yangyang said: “Then I wish you a speedy divorce.”

Wen Xiaochu raised her glass of lemon tea for a toast: “Thank you..”
