560 Death of a Marriage
Huo Zhou looked confused. “I’ll do as she says.”
News of Huo Zhou and Sisi’s intentions to divorce reached Huo Zhou’s mother and she almost immediately rushed home.
...“Huo Zhou.” Zhou Zhou’s mother stood at the door like a lion roaring. “You actually want to divorce Sisi? How can you let Sisi down? She’s taken good care of you for the past four years. Don’t you have a heart?”
Huo Zhou sighed in despair.
Qiao An helped Sisi out. Huo Xiaoran pulled Huo Zhou to Sisi and said, “Sisi, relationships are between the two of you. Discuss how to resolve your current difficulties.”
Qiao An added, “Whether you break up or continue to be together, I hope you can minimize the damage to each other.”
Zhou Zhou’s mother roared, “How is he hurt? Sisi is the only one hurt, okay? Huo Zhou, let me tell you, you have to be responsible for Sisi.”
Huo Zhou looked at his mother angrily. “Mom, if you hadn’t interfered back then, I wouldn’t have made the wrong choice and forced myself to be with Sisi. I wouldn’t have hurt her like this today.”
Huo Zhou’s mother was stunned. At that moment, her body seemed to have encountered a cold stream, and it was so painful that she lost consciousness.
Huo Zhou’s accusation continued. He seemed so helpless. “Mom, since I was young, you’ve always been so domineering. You’ve taken care of my entire life for me. Sometimes, I’m quite envious of Xiaoran. Although he’s hardworking, he’s trained to be tenacious. Mom, can you let go and let me face the storm outside alone?”
Huo Zhou’s mother trembled, her lips trembling. “I just love you too much and am too afraid of losing you. So I can’t wait to block all the storms for you.”
Huo Zhou was in so much pain that he wanted to die. “Mom, don’t interfere in my matters with Sisi, okay?”
Huo Zhou’s mother’s eyes were red as she choked. “I’m sorry, son. I didn’t know you were in so much pain. You’ve had a smooth-sailing life since you were young, but you actually envy a pitiful child whose parents are not by his side. It seems that my restraint on you has backfired. Alright, I promise you that I’ll return your freedom to you in the future.”
Huo Zhou felt relieved. He walked slowly to Sisi. “Sisi, what do you want me to do so you won’t be in so much pain?”
Sisi shook her head and cried bitterly. “Actually, you know what to do. You’re just unwilling to change yourself.”
“Zhou Zhou, I’ve thought it through. Instead of letting us live so painfully, I choose to let go. Let’s get a divorce and I’ll return your freedom to you.”
Sisi looked at Huo Zhou affectionately. “You’re my benefactor. Without you, I might still be in the countryside and living a poor life. No matter what, I have to be grateful to you for giving me material and spiritual wealth.”
Sisi’s understanding and kindness made Huo Zhou’s mother extremely reluctant.
Back then, when she first saw Sisi, she was filled with vigilance towards Sisi, who had come to visit rashly.
Until Sisi told her that she wanted to repay Brother Zhou Zhou’s kindness. Huo Zhou’s mother still asked about her character and even tested her heart many times.
She had seen too much deception in society and knew that many vain women married into wealthy families regardless of means.
However, Sisi had passed her layers of tests. Only then was she willing to introduce the outstanding, beautiful, and independent Sisi to her son as a girlfriend.
In the past four years, Sisi had been diligent, gentle, kind, and filial to the elderly. She was indeed a very qualified wife.
Unexpectedly, Huo Zhou could not step out of his love for Qianqian. He could not live a married life with Sisi.
In the end, Sisi wiped her tears and said, “Brother Zhou Zhou, I wish you happiness.”
Qiao An looked at the guilty Huo Zhou and the sorrowful Sisi. Qiao An had seen their four years of companionship.
Other than not being able to sleep together, they interacted very easily at other times. Sisi could understand Zhou Zhou’s fatigue. Zhou Zhou would also create some small surprises for Sisi. Their relationship was sweeter than those of many couples.
If they divorced, there was a high chance that Huo Zhou would never be able to find another woman who was so tolerant of him in this life. And Sisi would have a hard time without Zhou Zhou to rely on.
Qiao An had a plan and suddenly said, “Zhou Zhou, since you’ve decided to split up, Sisi won’t want any of your assets. I think it’s inevitable for a girl like her to suffer unfair treatment if she goes to society alone. Since you have the intention to compensate her, why don’t you let her enter your company?”
Huo Xiaoran raised his eyebrows and a smile appeared in his eyes. Qiao An had put in a lot of effort.
He stared at Qiao An dotingly with a surging heat in his heart. Only Qiao An would never leave her relationship. When her relationship was in trouble, the first thing she did was not to escape but to settle for the next best thing and attack again.
Xiaoran held Qiao An’s hand and rubbed her palm. Then, he echoed his wife’s words, “Sisi, I’m very grateful to you for taking care of my Zhou Zhou these past few years. Don’t worry, our Huo Zhou isn’t a heartless person. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can find Brother Zhou Zhou to help you resolve them. Right, Zhou Zhou!”
He turned to look at Huo Zhou.
Huo Zhou’s mind was in a mess. How could he know Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran’s good intentions? He only nodded. “Yes, Sisi, I’ll help you with all my heart in the future.”
Sisi looked at Qiao An in confusion. Qiao An said, “Sisi, you definitely can’t let go of Zhou Zhou, right? In that case, go to his office to work first. During this period of time, in order to heal the pain of your breakup, I’ll call on my friends to introduce you to a few more boyfriends. After you enter a new relationship, you won’t be in so much pain. When your emotions are stable, you can also leave Zhou Zhou’s company.” With that, she winked at her.
Sisi seemed to understand. “I’ll listen to Sister Qiao An.”
Qiao An said to Sisi, “Then go upstairs and pack your luggage. Leave this place immediately so that you won’t miss him.”
Sisi was stunned. She looked at Huo Zhou longingly and finally braced herself to go upstairs.
Huo Zhou said, “Sisi, there’s no need for you to move out so quickly. You can move out anytime? Or, you can move in after I buy you a house outside?”
Sisi turned around hesitantly.
Qiao An said, “Aiya, Zhou Zhou, you’ll only make Sisi suffer even more. Have you heard that it’s better to shorten the pain? Don’t worry, I promise to make Sisi forget you as soon as possible.”
Huo Zhou pursed his lips and glanced at Qiao An bitterly.
Zhou Zhou’s mother saw her son’s disappointed expression and felt sorry for him. She complained to Qiao An, “An’an, how can you do this? Can’t you see that Sisi can’t bear to part with my Zhou Zhou? Just give them a chance to get along again.”
