Chapter 23 - Can We Live Peacefully?

No one cared about her feelings. Therefore, many married women drifted further and further away from their friends and their original social circles. They even lost themselves. There were many men who had wives taking care of his family at home while he was carefree outside. In the end, when their relationship broke down, the woman was left with nothing but wrinkles and exhaustion. She, her children, and her friends were all gone. She did not want Wenxin to live such a pitiful life.

She had to stay by Wenxin's side. No matter what decision she made - even if the whole world disagreed with her decision - Ming Yue would stand firmly behind her and be her helping hand.

Wenxin took her phone and walked to the side. Ten minutes later, she came back. "Yue Yue, he said… he was just confused. That night, he sent the woman to the hotel and left. The only thing I can't stand is physical affairs. Since he didn't have a physical affair with her, I want to give him another chance… In a while, he will come and pick me up. I'm sorry…"

Ming Yue was not surprised. "You didn't do anything wrong to me. If you have any problems in the future, call me anytime."

"Thank you, Yue Yue." Wenxin hugged her and wiped her tears.

The two of them had known each other since they were young. Ming Yue knew that Wenxin was a girl who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Sometimes, she was stubborn, but she was soft-hearted. Her personality was the complete opposite of Ming Yue's. In addition, the child in her stomach was already very big, so Ming Yue could understand her decision.

Ten minutes later, Xing Yixiao's car stopped in front of them. Ming Yue turned around and refused to look at him. Xing Yixiao pushed open the car door and ran anxiously to Wenxin's side. He hugged her and apologized incoherently. After comforting Wenxin, he turned to look at Ming Yue and said gently, "Ming Yue, I'm sorry. I was anxious just now and my words were unpleasant. Don't lower yourself to my level."

"You didn't do anything wrong towards me. It's fine as long as you don't do anything to betray Wenxin in the future. You've known Wenxin for eight years, and we've known each other for 20 years. If you let her run out crying by herself again, I'll still scold you."

Xing Yixiao stayed silent for a while before finally agreeing. Ming Yue was still angry with him and did not want to take his car home. She said that she had something else to do and would take a taxi. After the two of them left, a cold wind blew. Ming Yue then remembered that her coat was still with Wenxin.

Fortunately, Sun Yu was waiting for her nearby. She crossed her arms and jogged over to the car. Sun Yu started the car and she stared blankly at the scenery outside the window. In a moment of desperation, she had promised her grandmother that she would bring her married driver husband to the hospital to see her. However, the young master hated her so much that he definitely would not be willing to accompany her to the hospital.

Xing Yixiao's hands were on the steering wheel. He kept turning his head to look at Wenxin, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. "Xin Xin, I'll marry you once the child is born."

"Why wait until the child is born? My stomach isn't big now, and I can wear a wedding dress. I want to do it now."

Xing Yixiao looked troubled. "I just graduated not long ago, and I still have to pay off my car loan for two years. Moreover, we still have to raise a child. Besides, your mother said that we can't get married if I can't fork out a hundred thousand yuan for the betrothal gift. I don't have enough money."

Wenxin stayed silent. She touched her stomach and got lost in her own thoughts. Xing Yixiao was acting up again. When they found out that she was pregnant half a year ago, they had discussed about holding a wedding. Xing Yixiao naturally thought that since they had been together for eight years, Wenxin would definitely be willing to marry him without asking for anything. However, he didn't expect his mother-in-law to be so stubborn. At first, she said that she wanted 128,000 yuan as a betrothal gift. Later, Wenxin negotiated with her and lowered it to 100,000 yuan. During that period, Xing Yixiao and Wenxin quarreled almost every day. He didn't understand why their eight-year relationship had to be measured by money.

Moreover, marriage should be a matter of mutual consent. Why should the man take out so much money to marry the woman? Moreover, he had slept with Wenxin for eight years and was a little bored already. He felt that it was not worth it to take out so much money to marry her. They were not virgins. The two of them had unlocked all positions together.

Wenxin glanced at her boyfriend and said softly, "My parents won't take a single cent of the betrothal gift. They'll return it to me when we get married. My mother wants the betrothal gift because I'm pregnant now and wants to give me a nest egg, just in case. Moreover, my father will give me an additional 80,000 yuan as dowry after we get married. When the time comes, these two sums of money will be our common property, right? Can we live together peacefully in the future?"
