The Secret of Second Marriage

My husband hasn't come home for over a month.

Before you know it, winter has arrived.

On the weekend, Shen Xing arrived early in the morning with groceries.

He bought fish, shrimp, and pork ribs, which I really like to eat, and made a pork rib soup, braised fish, and steamed shrimp in the kitchen.

He is an extremely handsome and gentle boy.

At 20 years old, he was full of youthful energy, and his youthful face had a kind of handsome charm.

He is very tall, works out often, has a great physique, handsome features, and exceptionally fair skin.

All of this can create a gentle temptation.

I said, "Actually, you don't need to do these things."

He said, "Sis, I like to cook, anyway, I need to eat it myself."

After lunch, my daughter took a nap in her room.

We sat on the sofa watching TV.

Shen Xing suddenly asked me, "Man, will you get a divorce?"

This guy, who's 10 years younger than me, actually had a mature and responsible look in his eyes...

I don't know if I'm seeing things correctly.

He held my hand, his palm burning hot. He looked at me intently, as if he didn't want to miss any change in my expression.

He suddenly said, "Man, if you answer with just one word, 'yes,' I will definitely go through fire and water to devote myself to this relationship."

"I don't want to talk about this."

I avoided his intense gaze.

He said, "Your uncle isn't good enough for you! Are you going to spend your whole life with a man like that, with a marriage like that?"

I took a wad of cash from my wallet and gave it to him; it was probably around 1 yuan.

During this time, he helped with cooking, taking care of the children, tutoring their homework, and teaching my daughter to play the piano.

I said, "This is your salary for this month."

He looked somewhat insulted when he saw the money.

He said, "I have money, sister. I'm not being this nice to you because of money."

That being said, how can the adult world avoid money?

I said, "Take it."

He didn't take the money. Suddenly, he reached out and put his arm around my waist, pressing his forehead against mine, and said seriously, "Do you know when a man falls in love with a woman?"

"When?"

I asked, almost as if possessed.

He suddenly said, "It's when I developed feelings for you and wanted to protect you. Man, I got up two hours early this morning to go to the market to buy groceries, not to see you reject me."

His sudden confession made me flustered.

I still resolutely pushed him away.

I said, "You don't need to come starting next week. I'll get you a new tutor."

Shen Xing looked at me and said in a low, gentle voice, "Don't fire me. I'll wait for you to get a divorce. I just want to see you more every day!"

Are there really such devoted men in this world?

With a cold expression, I stuffed the money into his hand and said, "You don't have class this afternoon, you can go home now."

After I finished speaking, I went back to my bedroom for a nap.

He sat in my living room for a while, then closed the door and left.

My daughter woke up around 1:30.

When I woke up from my afternoon nap, I found a neatly stacked wad of cash on the living room sofa.

He didn't accept the 1 yuan.

After my daughter woke up, she looked around and asked me, "Mommy, where's Shen Xing?"

I said, "He won't be coming to our house anymore."

The daughter cried and said, "Why? Brother Shen Xing is more patient with me than Dad. He helps me with my homework, teaches me to play the piano, and learns to draw with me. He is my good friend."

I didn't know what to say, so I could only tell my daughter, "Mom was just kidding. Teacher Shen will come and continue giving you piano lessons."

Only then did her daughter look happy.

I don't know what Shen Xing thinks about me, but at least he spends time with my daughter, which is much better than my husband.

I had my lawyer prepare the divorce papers.

My husband and I can never go back to the way things were.

After I prepared the divorce agreement, I sent a copy to my husband's email address.

I know he's been staying with his mistress all this time.

But I have already asked a lawyer to compile our marital property, which includes two houses, two cars, and cash savings totaling three to four hundred thousand yuan.

My lawyer advised me to first ask the mistress to return the money, and then file for divorce.

Because my husband cheated on me and kept a mistress, the court will appropriately favor me with a portion of the compensation when granting the divorce.

Moreover, I was in a better position and managed to win custody of my daughter.

My husband received the divorce papers and knew I was determined to divorce him.

That day, he rushed home before even getting off work.

He called me before he went home and said he had something very important to discuss with me, and my parents had also come from our hometown. At the same time, his parents also arrived.

After I got off work at 6 p.m., I went home and saw my husband, my parents, and my in-laws as soon as I entered the door.

The elders from both families were sitting in the living room.

After I entered the house, I greeted my parents and in-laws.

My husband greeted me, saying, "Honey, come sit down. I have something to discuss with you."

"What's wrong?" I told my daughter to go back to her room to do her homework, then went over and sat on the sofa. "You called my parents and your parents over here to discuss divorce?"

My husband suddenly knelt down in front of my parents and said, "Mom and Dad, I don't want to divorce Xiaoman!"

My dad asked me, "Why are you two getting a divorce? I heard it was your idea. You're being ridiculous, throwing away a perfectly good life. Xue Fan has a good job and treats you so well, what more could you want?"

I casually said, "He cheated on me."

My parents were clearly startled.

I'm the kind of person who only reports good news and never bad news, because I know I have no one to help me.

The mother-in-law immediately defended her son, saying, "My son had no choice. Who told you not to have a second child? I told you long ago to give Niu Niu a younger brother, but you wouldn't listen. So you can't blame my son for finding someone else outside."

My husband said, "Mom, please say no more. I was wrong in this matter. I'm the one who let Xiaoman down!"

My mom quickly helped my husband up and advised me, "It's good that he knows he was wrong. Xiaoman, don't be stubborn. It's not easy to start a family, and you already have children. You can't just get a divorce like that."

His affair with the other woman was just a momentary lapse of judgment; he just needs to apologize and admit his mistake to you.

He just assured me and your dad that he won't contact his mistress again. Be sensible and don't argue with him about these things all the time.

My mother-in-law, without consulting me, said, "How much money can you make with that job? This family still depends on my son. I think you should quit that job and stay home to have a second child. If you give birth to a son for the Xue family, we'll treat you like a goddess during your postpartum period!"

I know it's just a lie.

My husband wasn't sincerely apologizing.

He's just afraid I'll take half of his assets. I heard their company's finances have been bad in recent years, and many middle managers have been laid off. Plus, his mistress spends money extravagantly.

If they really get divorced, and he loses his job, his mistress probably won't want him anymore.

Men are very realistic.

I said, "But I don't want to be with him anymore."

I feel disgusted to spend even a day with a man like that.
