Chapter 40:

The two met in a small park near the Dong familys home.

Dong Shufen was reluctant to meet Su Yuyang alone.

They were divorced now, so whats left for her to see?

Outsiders might think that divorced women are less common these days, and she also has a child with her, so the divorcee label she had now is a self-inflicted suffering and her future life wouldnt be easy.

Even her parents didnt agree to her divorce, as they said she should just put up with it and move on. Her parents, at their age, werent they quarrelling too?

Su Yuyang liked bragging, helping family members, and always showed loyalty to his good brothers. They didnt really mind it as he didnt have any bad habits like whoring, gambling, and beating others.

But they were not her, and they cant understand how painful her life was.

If she had been like her parents, who were matched together by someone who introduced them to each other and agreed with living together, despite not having much in common, she thought she would have been able to live like that for the sake of her children.

But things werent like that. She had feelings and fantasies about Su Yuyang.

And this fantasy, after marriage, was broken by Su Yuyang piece by piece. The experience was too painful for her, and the results of it were too unacceptable.

In the end, she had to lie to her father. She said she divorced him because she wanted to make Su Yuyang change for the better, and that they could get married again later.

It was only under this circumstance that her father agreed and kindly helped her divorce Su Yuyang.

But then, Su Yuyang took the child away in a rage, and she was very worried. However, her father said that it was just a lesson for Su Yuyang to taste the pain of taking care of the child, and to let him be.

She could only endure and worry for her son. Fortunately, this time, Su Yuyang didnt make her deepest fears come true.

This is also the reason why she was willing to meet with Su Yuyang after repeatedly considering it.

All things considered, the two of them did have a child together, so it was not good to make their relationship appear too rigid, as it wouldnt be good for their child.

You came.

Seeing Dong Shufen coming, Su Yuyang stood up, took Su Yaotians hand, and greeted her from a distance.

Unlike him and Su Yaotian, who were both white and clean, Dong Shufen looked very bad, her face pale, her eyes puffy and clearly baggy from lack of sleep, her hair casually pulled behind her head. She was wearing a clean blue dress, which was still the same style she wore since 7 or 8 years ago.

She had been in no mood to dress herself up for several years.

She had to take care of her child, do housework and earn money at work every day. She didnt even have time to sleep. How can she think of dressing herself up?

In the past few months, Su Yuyang had taken away the child, so she didnt have to do much housework, and she didnt have to take care of him.

But she still couldnt sleep well, because her discomfort and worries kept her up at night.

It wasnt until she saw her child that she finally relaxed.

Well, youve worked hard.

Dong Shufen didnt even look at him, and just stretched out her hand to take Su Yaotian.

Tiantian, lets go. Mom will take you to buy delicious food.

She hadnt seen her son for so many days, her heart was aching for him.

Mom, Dad said hed take us to eat Kelsens cheesecake, and Ive been wanting it for ages, so lets go together! Dad said that I can go to Huaxing to eat steak at night!

(TNote: kelsens/huaxing = both names or places that sell food.)

Su Yaotian held Dong Shufen with one hand, but he didnt let go of Su Yuyang with his other hand. On the contrary, Su Yaotian pulled hard, seemingly afraid that Dong Shufen would pull him away.

Mom will make you ribs and stewed trotters.

Hearing her sons words, Dong Shufen was disappointed with Su Yuyang. After so many days, she thought he had changed a little, but he still liked to brag so much.

The food at these two places her son said wasnt cheap, and one meal could eat up half of her salary.

It has only been a few months, and she didnt believe Su Yuyang could have so much money all at once.

Furthermore, it was spent on their son.

Last time, Su Yuyang was used to spending a lot of money. Occasionally, when he came back home satisfied, he might throw 10 yuan at his son, but he would only do so to ask him to help him buy cigarettes.

As for her sons daily expenses, she was responsible for them.

He also bought some high-end toys for their son, but this only happened rarely, when he made a small fortune.

Su Yuyang lamented, but didnt forget to stretch out his hand to get a taxi. He also helped Dong Shufen open the door.

As a result, Dong Shufen sat shotgun. She didnt get what he wanted to do, as she thought he was pulling the door for his son.

Sure enough, the original owner was too scummy

When they arrived at the place, Su Yuyang took the order first, and then put Su Yaotian into the childrens playground in the store and let him play with the children there.

He seized the opportunity to be alone with Dong Shufen and talk to her.

But Dong Shufen obviously didnt intend to give him this chance.

Seeing her son leave, she immediately turned and went to the ladies room. After coming out, she found a window seat and sat down.

Su Yuyang couldnt let his son out of his sight, so he could only watch Dong Shufen, who sat indifferently.

Dad, why dont you go to Mom?

Su Yaotian has been paying attention to the situation here, forcing down his inner impulse to have fun, and ran to urge Su Yuyang.

In a moment.

Su Yuyang didnt want to add any more burden to his son, which would make him unhappy when he plays.

Okay, can I help you?

Su Yaotian looked at his Mom, who seemed to be staring out the window, and felt helpless.

No, its fine. Instead, have you thought of how you are going to play? Dad also hopes you can have fun today.

Touching his sons little head, Su Yuyang said as much.

Okay!

After all, Su Yaotian was still a child. When he heard Su Yuyangs words, he immediately ran away happily.

Later when the food was served and they ate, Dong Shufens heart was struggling.

When she sat alone by the window, she had already looked at the menu and calculated how much the meal would cost.

After the calculation, she was a little worried.

It cost more than 80 yuan. She brought 100 yuan when she came out today. After paying that much, she would only have the remaining to spend for the rest of the month. Her son just came back, and she didnt want her son to suffer.

She also had to cook some more delicious food for her son, and in the past few months, she has been able to save some money, but after spending it this way, they would have nothing left.

She had never gone through this before, but she thought that if she had no money, Su Yuyang would never give up a dime for her.

Thinking of herself, raising her son despite having no money, her heart was always a little uneasy.

Waiter, check out please.

Su Yuyang didnt have any intention to eat. He has been paying attention to Dong Shufen throughout the meal. Seeing her glance at the bill from time to time, he knew that she must be worried about money.

Instead of making her eat so uneasily, it was better to pay the money first and then have a good meal.

When Dong Shufen heard this sentence, she became a little nervous.

Su Yuyang once again grumbled internally. The original owner was really scum. How did he treat his wife and child?

Two people got married only when they fell in love freely! Why did you put your wife in such a bitter predicament?

Two more orange juice, a dessert, and then check out.

Su Yuyang took out a 100-yuan bill and handed it to the waiter.

When ordering, he knew all about the price, and naturally knew how much the meal would cost.

Okay, please wait a moment.

For such a generous guest, the waiter was naturally quick.

Dong Shufen didnt even have time to reach out for her purse.

Where did you get so much money?

She looked at Su Yuyang with a face full of shock. He didnt steal it, did he?
