Chapter 31: Disgraceful Acts
"Dad, you’ve said yourself Si Chen is promising and his future is bright. His marriage with his wife was arranged, and there is no love between them. You’ve heard the hospital rumors and know that divorce is inevitable for them. They’ve just been together for two days and they don’t have any kids. If I am patient, I can have him," she stated passionately.
Yu Shiya boldly put her feelings out in the open because her parents already knew about her feelings for Si Chen. She reasoned that she had to win her parents over sooner or later if she wanted to be with Si Chen. Perhaps, they might even help her.
If they won’t help, she would move into the hospital family accommodation and never come back. Regardless of anyone’s opinion, she loved Si Chen, and that was all that mattered.
Yu Shiya had been pampered like a princess since she was young and had become stubborn and spoiled, determined to get whatever she wanted, by any means necessary. This applied to her feelings as well. She had been picky with her choices in boys since she was young, but now that she has finally found someone she likes, she won’t give up easily.
"Nonsense!" Yu Zhengxiong, her father, slammed the table angrily, his face creasing up with new wrinkles. "You are a maiden of a respected family, but you want to marry a divorced man! What a disgrace!"
"Regardless, if you do not agree with me, then I will not get married!"
Yu Shiya was fighting back tears. Although her parents have spoiled her, she was not one to cry and complain amidst the harsh working conditions in the hospital. Yu Zhengxiong was proud of his daughter’s strength and resilience. Seeing her cry now, he felt a mix of heartache and anger, blaming his wife for her behavior.
"You spoiled her," he muttered blamefully.
