Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Tan Si: Si Cheng, this is a photo that a friend of mine who works in media saw. They recognized that it was my sister in it, so they came to tell me. I was scared to death when I saw it just now!
Tan Si: Sister has gone overboard. You haven’t even gotten a divorce yet. Isn’t she clearly cheating on you?! She’s too much of a bully. The Si family shouldn’t tolerate their status being disrespected by her like this! Fortunately, not many people know about your marriage. Otherwise, how would your reputation be in the business world if it’s exposed?
Tan Si: Previously, when Sister was filming a variety show with Jiang Huai, I already felt that something was wrong. If they didn’t know each other before, would Jiang Huai treat my sister so well just because she’s his fan? In my opinion, they might have contacted each other behind your back long ago. My sister really didn’t consider you at all. She’s still as willful and reckless as before, letting others pay for her mistakes!
Tan Si’s every word pinned the word “cheating” on Tan Ming.
Moreover, every word was spot on with respect to everything that Si Cheng cared about. At this moment, how could Si Cheng still remember what Ning Gang had said to him? His previous emotions were completely overwhelmed by anger. He was certain only when birds had their wings clipped off would they not fly everywhere!
Si Cheng finally adjusted his emotions and focused on work. He endured until it was time to get off work, immediately packing his things and rushing home.
Ever since Si Cheng found out that Tan Ming lived next door, he would return to their apartment every day. Through a few coincidental encounters, he also figured out the time when Tan Ming went to and from work.
When he got home, Si Cheng stood at the peephole of the door and stared outside.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Si Cheng saw Tan Ming passing by his house and immediately opened the door.
“Tan Ming!”
When Tan Ming heard Si Cheng’s voice, she turned around and took a look. Then, she lowered her head and took out the key to insert it into the lock to open the door.
When Si Cheng saw that Tan Ming was ignoring him, his eyes turned red. He went forward and grabbed Tan Ming’s arm. “I’m talking to you. Do you hear me?!”
Tan Ming was forced to turn around and face Si Cheng. “Haven’t we said enough? Other than agreeing on the date of getting our divorce, we have nothing else to say.”
Si Cheng accessed the photo that Tan Si had sent him and enlarged it for Tan Ming to see. He sneered and said, “Have you already degraded yourself to this extent for resources and money?! If you move back home now, I’ll pay you enough living expenses every month.”
After saying that, Si Cheng persuaded softly, “The children are still so young. They need their mother’s company. Can you bear to abandon them for the sake of earning money?”
“I heard that if children don’t feel safe enough when they’re young, they’ll grow up to be especially timid and think of themselves as inferior. They’ll easily fly into a rage when their emotions are unstable. If you leave them to outsiders to take care of them, how can they possibly be as attentive as you, their biological mother?”
The child was now Tan Ming’s weakness. If not for the last sentence, Tan Ming’s guilt would have really devoured a portion of her career. However, when he had mentioned outsiders and attentiveness, Tan Ming came back to her senses. The child’s biological grandmother and grandfather would not be worse than her at taking care of them personally.
“Stop deluding An’an!” Li Mei opened the half-closed door and rushed out. Jiang Hai followed closely behind.
“You keep emphasizing that An’an has to take responsibility as a mother. What about you? Have you ever taken responsibility for even just half a day?! You’re quite enthusiastic at talking about others, treating them so strictly yet so lenient on yourself. You have double standards for yourself!”
Li Mei saw Si Cheng grab Tan Ming’s hand so she grabbed Si Cheng’s wrist, exerting force.
Si Cheng frowned in pain and quickly let go of Tan Ming’s arm. After retracting his hand, he took a deep breath and held his wrist while slowly rotating it. He almost thought that he was going to be crippled.
Si Cheng looked at the beautiful woman who suddenly appeared and found her familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen her before. His frown deepened. “Who are you?! What does this have to do with you?!”
Li Mei was so excited that she was about to reveal her identity when Jiang Hai pulled her back. She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and glared at Si Cheng. “Why do you care who I am?! I can’t stand you bullying others!”
Hearing Li Mei’s words, Si Cheng was dumbfounded. Then, he sneered, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “There are so many nosy people in this world.”
Si Cheng sized up Li Mei and Jiang Hai. He recalled that when his grandparents asked him to go home to discuss the children’s names, Li Mei had been by Tan Ming’s side at that time. She was probably the confinement nanny hired by Tan Ming. Hence, he said angrily, “I saw you coming out of my wife’s place just now.. You should have been hired to look after the children, right? Do you know who I am? Your employer’s husband!”
