"Rules are dead, but people are alive." "Many things, many matters can be flexible. The mind needs to be agile." She tilted her head slightly again, but her eyes were quite vacant. "Don’t keep doing this, I’m about to worry myself sick. I’m human too, and I get tired. I don’t know my limits; I hope there won’t be any more troublesome events in the future. Because I’m uncertain how long I can love you, how long I can selflessly worry about you, how long I can endure being hurt by you." "And don’t use those laws as an excuse to suppress me, because they can’t hold me down. In my heart, I’m very clear that even without me, you can still live well. If you really fear trouble, just change your identity; there are always ways out." "So, I truly hope for more stability and less turmoil in the future because, sometimes, even the deepest emotions can be defeated by weary exhaustion." Shu Yu was speechless. For a moment, he didn’t know how to respond. But he understood that his wife’s speech wasn’t directed only at him. Everyone has moments of vulnerability, times when they want to rest, yet they brothers are excessively demanding. Shu Yu himself knew that given the family’s messes, if she were another woman, she would have divorced them long ago. Like Yixuan’s departure, like the eldest brother’s disappearance, like Shujun’s Peach Blossom debts, like Haoming’s vanishing, like Yue Ning once stabbing his wife, and also like his own once cold and vicious attitude, they’ve all hurt her. She accepted those hurts, but a person’s capacity to endure is limited. Her words were sincere; if this continues, if it goes on , someday they will lose her. Additionally, her speech also revealed an implied meaning. For instance, the eldest brother, who is now the Lord of the Mist Capital, even if his wife divorces him, he wouldn’t fall to the point of being conscripted as a prostitute. They have countless ways to avoid such a fate, as long as they are strong enough, even the current legal system must compromise for them. However, if they lose her, is their life still complete? This time, his wife discovered his concealment. But actually, this only served as a fuse, revealing her true feelings. She must have kept these thoughts suppressed for a long time, enduring until she couldn’t anymore, finally expressing them. "Shu Yu... acknowledges his mistake." He had nothing else to say. Dong Huiying closed her eyes briefly, then pulled his arm, lifting him off the ground. "Let’s get to business." She didn’t hesitate anymore; once he stood up, she let go of him. Shu Yu looked at her for a while. The distance of the heart may only be a momentary thing. Is there really a love on earth that lasts until death? But time is the most cruel, the most harsh, it can erode many things. Like when the romantic relationship between a man and woman falls apart, which seemed insurmountable at first, but after some years, looking back, one can only sigh at how foolish they were then and let it pass with a smile. In the following time, Shu Yu was very obedient, very cautious, as if afraid of making mistakes, afraid of angering her again. He conversed with Yi Ran, but kept an eye on her with the corner of his eye. She could sense his attention towards her and knew his mood must be very anxious at the moment, making it hard for her to stay angry. But should she really indulge? Should she continue to tolerate?
