Five years without pregnancy means you're too weak; I remarried a powerful man and had triplets

"What are you laughing at!"

Seeing that Shen Zhiyi not only didn't apologize immediately, but instead gave them a chilling laugh, Zhang Feng's anger skyrocketed: "Don't think you can get away with playing dumb!"

"I'm telling you, if you don't apologize or promise to serve Manman today, I'll make sure Azhe divorces you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Zhiyi clearly saw a glint of excitement flash in Su Manman's eyes, who had been feigning pitifulness.

Xu Zhesheng is now a top-tier director in the entertainment industry. In addition, he is younger than others and has a promising future. If she, a rising national star, can get involved with Xu Zhesheng, the future Best Actress title will be a sure thing!

She was naturally tempted.

This is why she dared to give up her promising future and have a child at such a young age.

Moreover...

Shen Zhiyi's gaze fell on Su Manman's stomach.

She remembered the medical report she had hidden away.

She knew Xu Zhesheng's physical condition better than anyone else, and she had observed how low the probability of conceiving naturally was for five years.

The arrival of Su Manman was perhaps too coincidental.

But Shen Zhiyi also knew that since Xu Zhesheng admitted that Su Manman's child was his, they must have had a relationship.

She couldn't keep this man either.

Zhang Feng's request was exactly what she wanted.

"OK."

Shen Zhiyi tidied a stray hair behind her ear and replied softly, "I'm not taking this position as Mrs. Shen anymore. When are we going to finalize the divorce?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhesheng's gaze suddenly fell on her.

Seeing her standing there calmly, even though her face was swollen and blood was seeping from the corner of her mouth, her expression showed no hint of joking, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

He and Shen Zhiyi had known each other since college. From the first time she saw him, she relentlessly pursued him, using all sorts of tricks and coincidences. He went from disliking and rejecting her at the beginning to becoming indifferent to her later.

He wasn't particularly attentive to her, but over the years he had grown accustomed to her kindness towards him.

He doesn't want to go to the point of divorce unless absolutely necessary.

Xu Zhesheng pursed his lips as his gaze swept over the fallen white lily bulbs on the ground.

That was the type of flower he used as his wedding bouquet when he married her. At that time, he didn't know anything about flower language; the wedding planner just thought it was nice, so he used it.

Later, Shen Zhiyi somehow learned that the meaning of the bellflower is "eternal and unchanging love," and from then on, this flower became a ripple between the two of them.

Today is his birthday. I heard that she worked overtime at the hospital a few days ago, but she still managed to come over today to celebrate his birthday. She must still love him.

He just hadn't expected that Shen Zhiyi and Su Manman would run into each other today. It would be hard for anyone to accept this situation, no matter who it happened to.

Shen Zhiyi must have been furious to speak so recklessly.

He pursed his lips and stepped forward: "Zhizhi, stop fooling around."

"I have to keep this baby, Manman. Once the baby is born, this matter will be over, and I will give you everything you deserve."

"You hit her, and Mom hit you too, so we're even."

"I have to go to the film set tomorrow, so I'll rest first."

"You've always been the most sensible one."

Having been a director for many years, Hsu Che-sheng has developed an unyielding and authoritative aura. In addition, his status in the industry has risen sharply in recent years, making his words carry an invisible sense of pressure.

Normally, Shen Zhiyi would never argue with him or make him angry, but today, facing his seemingly fair but actually biased gaze towards Su Manman, Shen Zhiyi felt extremely cold all over.

It seems that in the eyes of the Xu family, Shen Zhiyi should be sensible and obedient, and let others manipulate her. No matter what great injustice she suffers, she should always consider their feelings.

But who has considered her feelings?

For so many years, she has endured humiliation and hardship. For the sake of this love and this marriage, she has always been tolerant. Even when the mistress came to her door, she was asked to bow her head and apologize. What was the reason for all this?

Shen Zhiyi couldn't understand it; all her past efforts had become a joke.

The wound on his abdomen was still throbbing, as if he had accidentally twisted it when Zhang Feng slapped him earlier.

But it was far less painful than the sting that Xu Zhesheng's words caused her.

Her face was deathly pale, almost translucent, yet she stood ramrod straight, her gaze sweeping over Xu Zhesheng, repeating each word clearly: "I'm not joking, Xu Zhesheng, I want a divorce!"

Xu Zhesheng's expression froze for a moment.

He looked at Shen Zhiyi; her face was still swollen, and the blood at the corner of her mouth had dried, but her eyes held a firmness he had never seen before.

He suddenly remembered the first time he saw her in college. She looked up at him, her eyes bright, and said, "Xu Zhesheng, I like you. You can't escape me."

At that time, he found her annoying.

He felt as if something was blocking his chest.

"Sister Zhi, don't be impulsive!"

Su Manman, supporting her pregnant belly, walked up and knelt down in front of Shen Zhiyi with a "plop":

"In the end, this is all my fault. If I had known I was pregnant, I should have had an abortion immediately. I shouldn't have let Ah Zhe know, otherwise it wouldn't have affected your marriage..."

"I can see from this that Zhe cares about you a lot. Please don't argue with him. At worst... at worst, I can just get an abortion right now. Don't be angry with Zhe, and especially don't be angry with your mother. I don't want to be the one who breaks up someone else's marriage..."

"You don't need to apologize to me. I'm the one who should apologize, Sister Zhi. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Don't be angry anymore. If you have a problem, take it out on me. Don't make things difficult for A-Zhe and his parents..."

"Manman! What are you doing! Get up right now!"

Zhang Feng quickly stepped forward to help Su Manman up, her gaze towards Shen Zhiyi filled with resentment: "Shen Zhiyi! Look at you, not only can't you have children, but your temper is also so bad!"

"If you were even half as obedient and sensible as Manman, I wouldn't dislike you so much!"

"You want a divorce? Fine, that suits me perfectly. Go and get the paperwork done with A-Zhe tomorrow. Once we're divorced, let's see who wants a childless, used woman like you!"

Even Xu Zhi, who had been sitting silently to the side, put down his chopsticks and gave Shen Zhiyi a cold look:

That's enough.

Shen Zhiyi glanced at Xu Zhi, then at the family of three in front of her, and at Su Manman, who was kneeling on the ground with tears still in her eyes.

She didn't say anything more.

She bent down to pick up the scattered bellflowers on the ground, then turned to leave.

Just then, a painful groan came from behind.

"Ah Zhe... my stomach hurts so much..."
