Three years of cold marriage without sleeping together, why are you crying after remarrying a powerf

Liang Yu hung up the phone in shock, his mind blank.

As night fell, she tossed and turned in bed, finally deciding to reply to the unfamiliar text message.

【Who are you to Shi Ya? Why are you using her phone number? If you keep sending these harassing text messages, I'll call the police.】

Half an hour later, a stranger replied via text message.

The girl in the photo is Shi Ya. Your wedding anniversary is also Shi Ya's birthday.

A photo is attached below the text.

The photo appears to be an essay written in black ink many years ago; most of the words have been blurred, and only two lines are legible:

I told Aze that I wanted to get married on my birthday, actually to save him the money he would have for a gift. Wow, I'm sure I'll be a wonderful and virtuous wife someday.

This appears to be a girl's diary.

Liang Yu gripped his phone tightly, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest.

Liang Yu took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. After slowly relaxing his trembling hands, he replied with a message.

What are you trying to express by posting these random photos?

Twenty minutes later, a barrage of text messages from unknown numbers began to bombard him.

[How do you think you survived six years ago? It was because Shi Ya saw you bleeding profusely and told Fang Ze to save you first that you were able to live by sheer luck.]

Fang Ze originally intended to save Shi Ya.

Fang Ze himself said that he has regretted it all these years. He didn't know that the bus would explode after rescuing you; otherwise, he would have saved Shi Ya first.

Fang Ze also said that he took care of you and married you only because you were someone Shi Ya asked him to save. He has Shi Ya in his heart, so he will never touch you.

You killed Fang Ze's beloved; you're destined to live a life of widowhood.

The message came unexpectedly and was incredibly impactful.

Like sharp daggers piercing Liang Yu's heart, or like salt-soaked vines whipping her relentlessly.

Liang Yu was completely unprepared, and his hands trembled even more violently.

For three years of marriage, she and Fang Ze had been sleeping in separate rooms.

Liang Yu used to firmly believe that Fang Ze was truly incompetent.

But now, she doesn't know whether she should believe it or not.

Liang Yu's bedroom is on the third floor, and Fang Ze's bedroom is on the second floor.

If Fang Ze is home, they will go upstairs together and then part ways at the top of the stairs on the second floor, saying "Goodnight, sweet dreams" to each other.

Despite being Fang Ze's wife, she never shared a bed with him, and they rarely even hugged.

She had always thought that this was what a respectful and harmonious marriage was like.

Liang Yu turned off her phone, but the text message kept replaying in her mind. She felt as if a heavy, angular stone was lodged in her chest.

The stone not only obstructed my breathing, but with each breath, its sharp edges scraped against my chest, causing a tearing pain.

Liang Yu remembers that the first person she saw after waking up from the car accident was Fang Ze in the next hospital bed.

At that time, Fang Ze was wrapped in bandages, lying stiffly on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling with his eyes open, motionless.

There was a tote bag on his bedside table with the school's emblem printed on it.

Liang Yu asked in a hoarse voice:

"Excuse me, did you save me?"

Fang Ze turned his head slightly to look at her, and answered coldly:

"You're awake."

Liang Yu said:

"Thank you for saving me, classmate. Are you badly injured?"

Fang Ze pursed his lips and remained silent, his unfocused gaze wandering aimlessly.

Just when Liang Yu thought he wouldn't answer, Fang Ze suddenly uttered a few words in a weak voice:

"I'm badly injured."

Liang Yu replied earnestly:

"Classmate, once I can get out of bed, I'll take care of you. We'll both get better."

Now, when Liang Yu recalls those five words Fang Ze said, he understands a different meaning.

I was badly injured.

It's not the physical injury that's serious, it's the emotional one.

In that car accident, Fang Ze lost the girl he loved most.

Fang Ze could have rescued the girl.

Liang Yu felt as if a thousand-pound cauldron was pressing on her chest, and she needed to use all her strength just to barely breathe.

She lay in bed unable to sleep, and could only stare blankly with her eyes open.

She didn't know how much time had passed when a faint white light shone through the gap in the curtains. She couldn't lie down any longer, so she got up, took a shower, and went to the backyard to do hand rehabilitation exercises.

Around noon, Qin Xia called.

Liang Yugang had just pressed the answer button when he heard Qin Xia angrily yelling on the phone:

"What are you doing? Are your hands completely useless? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"

Liang Yu explained:

"Mom, don't be angry. I was doing rehabilitation exercises, so I answered the phone a little late."

Qin Xia immediately roared:

"What kind of rehabilitation training can you do with those useless hands? You've been doing rehabilitation training for years! Has it been effective? You're still a cripple!"

"You do nothing all day long, eating and drinking my son's food, and you can't even have a child! What use are you to my son?"

Liang Yu remained silent, waiting quietly for Qin Xia to finish venting.

After venting her frustrations, Qin Xia finally changed the subject:

"I remember you have a classmate who is a doctor at Haicheng First People's Hospital. Contact your classmate now and help Uncle Wu get an appointment with Director Zhou of the Orthopedics Department for 2 PM. Go and do it quickly."

Qin Xia has always been like this, simultaneously cursing Liang Yu as a good-for-nothing while exploiting him to the fullest extent possible.

Liang Yu replied with difficulty:

"Mom, Dr. Zhou's appointments are in a queue. Even though my classmate works at the hospital, she still has to make an appointment with Dr. Zhou in advance. The appointment is for 2 PM. If we're in such a hurry, we might not be able to get one."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xia's anger immediately flared up:

"My son feeds you well, and you're having such a hard time getting an appointment? If you don't want to, I'll call my son and have him get you to make the appointment!"

Whenever Liang Yu did not do as Qin Xia said, Qin Xia would use Fang Ze to threaten Liang Yu.

In the past, Liang Yu would have immediately given in and compromised, trying every means to satisfy Qin Xia's unreasonable demands.

Because Liang Yu didn't want Fang Ze to be caught in the middle between his mother and daughter-in-law.

But now, the text message from the unknown number is weighing on her mind, and she's reluctant to compromise.

Liang Yu paused for a few seconds, then said into the phone:

"Okay, then have Fang Ze come find me."

Liang Yu hung up the phone immediately after speaking.

Half an hour later, Fang Ze sent a message to Liang Yu.

Could you please help Uncle Wu get an appointment with Dr. Zhou, the orthopedic specialist? Uncle Wu has pulled a muscle in his back and is bedridden.

Liang Yu returned.

[Is Uncle Wu's injury that serious? We need to call 120 immediately and get him to the emergency room. Dr. Zhou's appointment is on the waiting list, and Uncle Wu's back can't wait. When are you coming back? I have something to tell you.]

After the message was sent, Fang Ze did not reply until the evening.

In the past, Liang Yu would have naturally assumed that Fang Ze was too busy to reply to her messages.

But now, Liang Yu thinks it's a different possibility.

Fang Ze probably had nothing to say in response.

Liang Yu and Fang Ze have been together for six years. Fang Ze has always been very quiet, and Liang Yu always has to start conversations, to which Fang Ze responds calmly and politely.

That tranquility was like a glass of plain water, forever clear and still, without the slightest ripple.

The Fang Ze that Liang Yu knew was polite to everyone, and kept a respectful distance.

Before going to sleep, Liang Yu received another message from an unknown number.

The message contains only one photo.

The photo shows an old diary entry from a girl, with most of the text blurred, only two lines are legible:

[Aze asked me what I wanted for my birthday. He told me to name an expensive gift, saying that would motivate him to work hard and earn money.]

So I said, "I want a necklace hand-set with 520 diamonds, haha, I wonder if I'll ever receive that gift."
