Marital problems spiral out of control

Fu Shishen quickly treated his wounds and then calmly returned to the master bedroom.

Wen Hua had just finished tidying up and came out.

I saw Fu Shishen leaning against the bed, wearing pajamas.

She didn't say anything, and habitually walked to her seat and lay down, with her back to Fu Shishen.

Fu Shishen glanced at her indifferently and didn't make things difficult for Wen Hua.

Wen Hua wasn't actually asleep; she was just nervous.

In addition, Fu Shishen's phone kept vibrating, with messages popping up one after another.

She knew that it was Jiang Ruan's message.

But surprisingly, Fu Shishen neither replied nor looked at it.

They exist in the same space, yet they seem like parallel lines that never intersect.

Soon, the phone stopped vibrating, but the screen kept lighting up intermittently.

Wen Hua thought that Fu Shishen had probably muted the sound.

Until the lights in the master bedroom went out.

Wen Hua closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Fu Shishen then looked at Wen Hua, listened to her even breathing, and quietly got out of bed.

Almost the instant Fu Shishen left, Wen Hua opened her eyes.

She knew he had gone to find Jiang Ruan.

Therefore, her request was merely a superficial compromise.

Wen Hua became increasingly numb and indifferent.

She closed her eyes, and eventually, exhaustion made her fall into a deep sleep.

Fu Shishen walked toward the kitchen, and as he passed the full-length mirror, he saw the scratches on his body.

That was what Wen Hua left behind during the previous fierce battle.

Wen Hua used to be cautious and would never do anything so outrageous.

Wen Hua now seems to have given up and is acting recklessly.

Fu Shishen stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself, neither pleased nor disappointed.

Fu Shishen only calmed down after receiving another message from Jiang Ruan on his phone.

Jiang Ruan: [Shi Shen, are you really ignoring me?]

He could even tell from the screen that Jiang Ruan was crying.

That was his precious treasure, how could Fu Shishen let Jiang Ruan cry?

In his view, Jiang Ruan is the one who has been wronged in the current situation.

He looked away and quickly returned Jiang Ruan's call.

As soon as the call connected, he heard Jiang Ruan's sobbing voice: "Shi Shen, you finally answered me. I thought I disturbed you, so you were angry."

"Don't cry, okay?" Fu Shishen coaxed softly. "I won't be angry with you."

These words finally eased Jiang Ruan's tension.

But her voice still carried a hint of nervousness: "Shi Shen, I'm calling you because things have blown up today. I'm afraid I can't hide my pregnancy anymore. They're all afraid to make a decision. I don't know how to explain it."

Jiang Ruan's words carried a sense of grievance, but more than anything, they were putting pressure on Fu Shishen.

She wants to go public.

That was a woman's intuition; she was afraid that if she didn't go public, she would really become the other woman, and everyone would condemn her.

"Shi Shen, the baby is almost 20 weeks along now, and I want to go public with the news. Otherwise, I'm afraid the baby will blame me later." Jiang Ruan bit her lip and carefully made her request.

But none of his words were for his own benefit.

It was for the sake of the baby in her womb.

How could Fu Shishen not know what Jiang Ruan meant?

He remained outwardly calm: "Your agent and Cheng Ming will handle this matter; you don't need to worry."

Jiang Ruan paused for a moment before asking, "So, does that mean we shouldn't make it public?"

"Yes." Fu Shishen said directly, "You still have announcements coming up, and going public won't do you any good. I'll have your agent reduce your workload. Once you've handled your current matters, focus on your pregnancy and give birth to the baby. We can consider other things after the baby is born."

That's the decision.

Jiang Ruan had no way to refute Fu Shishen's words.

But that unwillingness was also consuming Jiang Ruan.

"Listen to me, wait until I get the shares. You've waited ten years, what's another six months? Right?" Fu Shishen softened his tone and coaxed Jiang Ruan again.

Jiang Ruan looked even more aggrieved: "It was Wen Hua's idea, wasn't it?"

Fu Shishen did not answer.

Wen Hua did make the request, but now he's not sure if it's because of Wen Hua or simply because he doesn't want to go public.

"That's true, I can understand Wen Hua. After all, she holds the initiative now." Jiang Ruan was still the sensible and considerate woman she always was. "Shi Shen, I'm sorry for putting you in this dilemma."

She habitually takes all the responsibility upon herself.

This is what Fu Shishen likes.

A woman who doesn't compete or fight, and is obedient and sensible.

"If my body had cooperated and I hadn't been unable to have an abortion, I wouldn't have wanted this child, and you wouldn't have had any worries." Jiang Ruan even put it this way, "I really had no choice. The doctor told me that if I had an abortion, I might never be able to get pregnant again, and I was really scared."

Jiang Ruan is very good at using this tactic to portray herself as an innocent person.

"The baby is almost 20 weeks along now, the risks are too great, and I can't bear to part with him." As she spoke, Jiang Ruan was about to cry.

Fu Shishen was indeed stung by Jiang Ruan.

He was coaxing Jiang Ruan, "Don't overthink it. I'll handle these things. Just focus on giving birth to this baby."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan was very obedient.

After she finished speaking, Jiang Ruan fell silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Shi Shen, I don't mean I'll never see you again, will I?"

"No, you're the most important person to me." Fu Shishen said directly, "Wen Hua is just a tool to me. You know better than anyone what would happen if I didn't get the shares."

In this explanation, Fu Shishen's tone also became tense.

He was a little impatient.

Jiang Ruan knew, but still didn't take it seriously: "Shi Shen, I've waited 10 years, how much longer do I have to wait?"

Fu Shishen did not respond.

However, he also realized that in his recent conversations with Jiang Ruan, he could easily fall into this kind of interrogation atmosphere.

He was impatient, but he suppressed his guilt towards Jiang Ruan, so Fu Shishen didn't explode.

He patiently coaxed her, "It'll be soon, be good."

"Okay," Jiang Ruanruan replied softly.

"Get some rest." Fu Shishen ended the conversation.

Jiang Ruan watched as Fu Shishen hung up the phone, her expression growing increasingly grim.

The composure I had feigned in front of him vanished in an instant.

She smashed everything in the room that she could break.

The assistant stood to the side, barely daring to breathe.

In fact, everyone knows that Jiang Ruan is only good-tempered in front of Fu Shishen.

In private, Jiang Ruan was never an easy person to please.

At the same time, Jiang Ruan's agent also issued a statement.

Jiang Ruan Studio (v): [Thank you everyone for your concern for Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan is not pregnant; it was just that her period started, and she wasn't feeling well recently, which led to the unexpected pregnancy. Jiang Ruan's condition is now stable, and she will gradually reduce her workload to allow her body time to recover. Thank you again for your concern!]

Following the manager's statement, all news related to the birthday party was immediately suppressed.

This matter was quickly removed from public discourse.

It has completely disappeared without a trace.
