Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1073: Mother-in-Law’s Dilemma (3)

Wen Chi was moved by Gu Huanhuan’s words.

He had always seen her as carefree, but her thoughts were actually so delicate. He had always done his best to accommodate her, hoping she would happily do the things she liked.

But he had not expected her to have thought everything through so thoroughly, to care so much for this family.

He couldn’t help but print a kiss on the palm of her hand, his eyes slightly wet, “Such a silly girl…”

Before Wen Chi could finish his sentence, he had already seen her whole body visibly shudder.

“Are you not feeling well?” Wen Chi nervously asked, noting that the days of her drug addiction acting up were becoming fewer and that she could generally get through it. Sometimes, when he saw her enduring the pain with gritted teeth, Wen Chi felt incredibly heartbroken.

At the moment, as he watched her purse her lips and shake her head, yet her expression struggled, he knew she was certainly lying again.

Wen Chi furrowed his brows involuntarily, recalling that in the beginning, when her addiction flared up, she would always ask to use the bathroom or pretend to sleep to conceal it, then she would bite her own wrist fiercely, not wanting him to find out, afraid to worry him, until one time, she spent too long in the bathroom and fainted inside, only then did he discover what his silly wife was doing.

Beneath the loose sleeves, the row upon row of bite marks on her arms, some healed and some still with traces of blood, were shocking to see. They would heal after being medicated, only for new bite marks to appear later.

Thinking of this, Wen Chi’s heart was filled with distress. He naturally sat on the hospital bed and held her tightly in his arms, kissing her cheeks and forehead to soothe her, wishing he could bear the pain for her. Seeing her lips tightly pressed together, struggling, he felt heartbroken.

Gu Huanhuan nestled in his embrace and once more fell into a sweaty, deep sleep.

Time after time, again and again, but ultimately she overcame her addiction.

Gu Huanhuan spent close to half a month in the hospital and finally was able to be discharged.

On the day of her discharge, Wen Chi specifically took time off to pick her up. He cradled her face and said affectionately, “Honey, you are truly amazing.”

As he spoke, his eyes were moist – the former Gu Huanhuan had finally returned.

During her time recovering in the hospital, Gu Huanhuan also saw a psychologist, and now her heart was even stronger.

Gu Huanhuan’s smile had returned, and she believed that those who had framed her would definitely receive their due punishment.

That day, her brother Gu Shaoting had told her about how Shen Hui had treated her, and now he was tasting his own medicine.

Shen Yue, too, had been punished and slunk off abroad; it’s likely she wouldn’t come back very often, and he had also sent someone to warn her.

….

After Wen Chi brought Gu Huanhuan home, Mrs. Wen placed a brazier at the door for Gu Huanhuan to step over, saying it was to dispel bad luck, a rather superstitious belief.

Gu Huanhuan did as advised, thinking that if it could put the elderly lady’s mind at ease, what harm was there?

What made her happiest was that she could finally see her Warm Sunlight again. However, since she had just returned from the hospital, she couldn’t hold her immediately, so she first took a shower and changed into a set of home clothes.

When she came out, Warm Sunlight initially seemed unfamiliar with her, but after being in her arms and smelling the familiar scent, she clung tightly to her and even started to cry pitifully. Gu Huanhuan, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but shed tears.

When Wen Chi entered the room, he saw the two of them, big and small, hugging and crying. He couldn’t help but sigh, knowing it would be like this.
