Xiaoyuan and Dong Sheng, it's not yet at the point where it's life or death for either of you.
The biggest conflict between them was Xiaoyuan's pride, and Dong Sheng not knowing how to differentiate between filial piety and blind filial piety.
He didn't understand how to cherish his own wife. He failed to comprehend that she, a girl raised in the warmth of her parent's love, with high self-esteem and pride, had been beaten by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law as soon as she arrived and even had her only bracelet taken and broken. Such humiliation would suffocate anyone.
She didn't want Dong Sheng to touch her, and he still didn't know how to coax her, thinking she was still the Xiaoyuan who loved him desperately. She had been tolerant and forgiving, but there are some things that can never be forgiven.
