Chapter 366: Won’t Become a Terrible Good Person
"A small matter? It may be a small matter in your eyes, but it’s a lifetime of hurt in my heart." Ma Jiahong really didn’t understand why it was always like this when talking to her husband; no matter whose fault it was between them, it always ended up being her fault, the one to blame was always her.
"So, what do you want, a divorce right now?" Shen Qiu’s tone was also sarcastic. They had fought a lot, and talk of divorce wasn’t new; he didn’t care when he said it.
"Shen Qiu, you really think too highly of yourself. Do you think I can’t live without you? Before, it was for the sake of the child, now I can’t even hope to find the child, and even if we do find him, can you truly protect him? Let’s get a divorce after this disaster passes; you go find your Wanwan." At this point, Ma Jiahong was really tired. No matter how good or bad she was, people always criticized her—so why hadn’t her husband stood by her side even once?
"It all comes back to you being jealous, doesn’t it? Why can’t you be more generous-hearted?" Shen Qiu shook his head, his eyes filled with disappointment as he looked at Ma Jiahong.
"I don’t have your kind of generosity. To marry a wife and still keep another in your heart—that’s a generosity too great for me to aspire to." Ma Jiahong no longer cared about her husband’s opinion. She had lived like this for so many years; what had she gained?
"Are you done? Forget it, I don’t want to talk anymore; it’s exhausting." After saying that, Shen Qiu closed his eyes, pretending to sleep, and refused to eat.
Ma Jiahong ate all the food Gu Pan had sent over herself. Before, she would always think of her husband first, but not anymore. Initially, she had thought of them as a support for each other, but now she realized her husband was unreliable, and she was better off relying on herself.
She knew she wasn’t necessarily a good person, but how genuine was her husband’s kindness? Many previously hidden issues had surfaced during this apocalypse. His words might have been helpful before, but having faced life and death, she had come to see things differently.
Shen Qiu knew his wife had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and knew profoundly of her deep love for him, so he wasn’t worried—he expected she would still ask him to come and eat later.
But this time, it surprised him. When he woke up from his sleep, there was nothing to eat, only some hot water.
