“Then what should I do?”
Yu Fei asks in a tranquil manner. Her instinct tells her Wong Feng’s answer will not let her down.
As expected, two drops of crocodile tears are squeezed out of Wong Feng’s eyes. She sighs with her head at 45 degrees angle to the sky, “It is all my fault, these years I didn’t take good care of you. Now that you are divorced, you can pursue your own life. Didn’t you always want to study abroad years ago? Anyway, you’ve worked so hard all these years.”
“Worked so hard”, these three words sound so funny to Yu Fei. When she graduated from college, she covered the risk of unmarried pregnancy for Yu Yu in a fog, then, like a commodity, she was sold to Ko Family and they decided the rest of her life without authorization.
Yu Yu finds Ko Chen’s goodness, so she asks Yu Fei to give up Ko Chen. Throughout, the mother and the daughter regard her marriage and life as a drama, making the most of her value.
Now her value has been exhausted. Mission accomplished, they try to drive her away with one single cold sentence of “re-pursuit of her own life”?
Who remembers what she dreamed of most at the age of 23 was studying abroad to become a designer? But what did Wong Feng do? Ostensibly and hypocritically, she said she was concerned about Yu Fei’s security if Yu Fei drifted in a foreign country alone, and one second later, she sold her to Ko Chen in exchange for money for her comeback to business due to her failure.
Everything in the past is like a flashback of a film. Yu Fei suddenly realizes her life is pretty miserable: she didn’t experience the warmth of family, now even her only love is going to be lost.
Wong Feng talks a lot later, nothing more than about her father, for the sake of the whole family, for Yu Fei.
Yu Fei has no intention to listen more, for she’s afraid she will throw up. She sneaks out from the back door with the excuse of going to the washroom. She walks aimlessly in the street. She looks up and finds herself unwittingly walking to Ko tower.
Ko Chen is just on the top floor of this towering building. Yu Fei suddenly wants to go up to see him without any reason.
However, she is blocked by the receptionist before she steps in, for she doesn’t have an appointment and she can’t reach Ko Chen’s phone, either.
“Can’t you bend the rules once? I really have to meet Ko Chen.”
“I’m sorry, but we have rules.” Although the receptionist is smiling, Yu Fei sees a trace of contempt in her eyes clearly. Presumably, she thinks Yu Fei is that kind of person who gives herself freely to rich people to get privileges.
Yu Fei feels pretty embarrassed for being driven out in a polite manner. But she is not discouraged. She stands outside and waits for Ko Chen to get off work. However, she underestimates the power of the sun in the afternoon of June, and in less than half an hour, Yu Fei faints spectacularly.
Ko Chen’s secretary just passes by, and his scared eyes almost fall out. Isn’t that his boss’s wife? Maybe, others don’t recognize her, but he knows her well. He immediately calls Ko Chen.
When Ko Chen gets the news, he is almost raged to explode in situ, and he hastens to call Duan Tsingfeng to treat her. It turns out to be heatstroke.
“Each of you couple is more troublesome than the other.” Duan Tsingfeng is almost vexed to spit blood after he examines Yu Fei’s body. How can there be such a person who doesn’t care her body? Doesn’t she remember she has a baby in her womb?
“How’s she?”
When Ko Chen sees Yu Fei’s pale face, his heart is broken into pieces, which cannot be concealed easily. Only when Yu Fei is unaware, dare he reveal all his emotions unreservedly.
“The baby’s not well. If it goes on like this, it’s hard to save it. Well, it’s okay. You don’t want this baby anyway.” Duan Tsingfeng tidies up medical materials, while reproaching Ko Chen sarcastically. Maybe part of the reason is anger.
Before the voice falls, Ko Chen kicks Duan’s calf unceremoniously. He frowns, “Can you speak well? Don’t be so mean. No matter what methods you use, you have to preserve the baby and help the baby grow up healthily, okay?”
“You don’t want this baby? Right?” Preventing miscarriage is a piece of cake for Duan Tsingfeng who owns the title of “International Great Doctor”. He is just curious about what suddenly changes his friend’s mind.
Ko Chen is depressed and lowers his eyes, and says, “I don’t have many days. Before I thought it’s not easy for a single woman to take care of baby. But think about it, when the child grows up, he can take care of her for me, that’s great.”
“Why so pessimistic? Anything is possible before the final whistle rings.”
“I hope so.” Although he says pessimistically, he looks forward to the approach of hope more than anyone else in his inner world.
Ko Chen looks fondly at Yu Fei’s sleeping face, smoothing her eyebrows gently, and touches and pitches her face. He is reluctant to leave the long-lost hand feeling.
Bowing his head, he kisses the cherry lips which he misses for so many days like kissing a feather. Ko Chen doesn’t dare to have further action, for he worries about waking up Yu Fei and breaking the rare harmony.
Yu Fei in coma vaguely feels the familiar breath and sleeps soundly.
When the sun sinks, she finally opens her eyes. The afterglow of the setting sun comes in through the glass window, and the man is bathed in an orange light, and his cold outline softens.
Yu Fei looks at him sluggishly, but what emerges in her brain is another scene which is in the study of the villa: he reads quietly, and she washes the fruit and brings it in, sitting on his lap and reads together. What marital harmony it is!
“Don’t pretend to sleep if you are awake.”
Ko Chen’s callous voice shatters her memories. She sits up and looks at the man in front of her calmly. Nostalgia, love and a trace of shallow hatred fills her eyes.
“You do fall in love with Yu Yu, and really want to divorce me, don’t you?”
Yu Fei’s voice is calm. Although it is a question, it is with calmness of statement.
“Well, yes.” For a moment Ko Chen is stunned, but he quickly reacts with a firm tone and an undeniable air.
“Okay, I agree to divorce. But we must make a deal. I can leave without anything as long as you can promise me three requests.” Yu Fei can’t believe she will say such words, but actually she did. The scene she talked to Wang Feng is still vivid in her mind.
She can even repeat every word Wong Feng said. It is the sense of unwillingness, and incapability to control her own destiny that she does this. She doesn’t want to experience that feeling again, willing her baby not to experience that feeling in the future, either.
Ko Chen falls into silence. It is always his hope to divorce Yu Fei, but now the person who refused to divorce suddenly changes her mind, instead he has become the person who is at a loss what to do.
He can’t deny that he is actually very reluctant to divorce.
And he thinks there is something wrong about Yu Fei. Does he think too much?
The sense of dazzling attacks again. The alarm sounds in Ko Chen’s mind, and he has to divorce even if he doesn’t want to.
“Ok, I promise you. What are the three promises do you want me to satisfy?”
