Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 842 - 252: [Reversal of Fortune] (6300)_3
Yang Jiaming thought for a moment and said, "I’ll transfer you some money, so you can eat and buy whatever you want according to your heart’s desire.
You should go back to your original place for now, and I’ll arrange for a nanny to take care of you later. As for the prenatal check-ups, I’ve arranged for a VIP package at a private hospital for you, so you won’t suffer a bit.
I’ll also try my best to find time to accompany you."
The woman sobbed, "So, will it just go on like this?"
Yang Jiaming’s expression was complicated as he slowly said, "A divorce is out of the question. If I go through with it, the old man would be furious and might really kick me out of the family."
As he spoke, he stared into the woman’s eyes, "You don’t want to live in poverty either, do you?"
The woman shrunk back.
"However, it’s not completely hopeless," Yang Jiaming said coldly. "She’s so sick she’s nearly dying. Maybe she’ll pass away one day, and by then, even if we don’t divorce, there won’t be any obstacles between us anymore.
But at this critical moment, don’t cause any trouble or draw any attention from the family. Otherwise, the old man firmly believes in maintaining household peace. If he notices my matters and gets displeased, it will make my life difficult.
If my life is hard, it means yours will be too!
Understand?"
Though the woman understood the reasoning, she still muttered a string of complaints. Her intentions were not difficult to grasp; she wanted to cry and voice her grievances.
She hoped that by speaking up more, she could make the man feel guiltier, so he would treat her better.
...To be honest, this reasoning wasn’t wrong.
But she had misunderstood the timing.
Yang Jiaming’s personality is a textbook example of selfishness.
Under normal circumstances, if it were for some insignificant matters, a woman’s complaints, tantrums, or drama might be seen by him as mere entertainment.
Even if he didn’t feel guilty, he might coax her a bit for the sake of their relationship.
But a selfish person, when facing issues that touch upon their core interests—do you expect such a person to feel guilty?!
As the woman continued her rambling, Yang Jiaming pretended to console her with a few sentences, then gradually fell silent, no longer masking the impatience in his eyes.
Eventually, the woman noticed, her voice petered out, and she dared not say anything further.
Yang Jiaming, however, maintained a stern expression, stood up and said flatly, "I have business at the company. I’ll head there now, and won’t be back for dinner tonight... Tomorrow, I’ll have a driver take you back home."
As he spoke, he picked up his coat and left the house without looking back.
With a bang, the door closed, and the woman sat on the sofa, her eyes red from staring at the closed door. She picked up a cushion and viciously slammed it onto the floor to vent her frustration!
About ten minutes later, once the woman had calmed her anger somewhat, her rationality returned, and she began to rethink.
At this point, pushing him further was pointless.
Causing any more trouble would only increase this man’s impatience.
In truth, there was no genuine emotional foundation between them; it was simply a transaction of money and deliberate flattery.
Yang Jiaming was infatuated with her mainly because of her youth and beauty, along with her willingness to submit, providing him ample emotional value.
Youth and beauty are fleeting, and no matter how beautiful a face or figure is, once a man has it, he eventually grows tired.
In fact, even before her pregnancy, Yang Jiaming was already losing interest in their intimate relations.
He continued liking her mostly because of her docility, understanding, and submissiveness.
If at this point she were to remove all emotional value and let him become increasingly impatient with her, she would truly have no leverage left!
The child?
To Yang Jiaming, a child might increase his future inheritance share.
But whether born in or out of wedlock, he didn’t actually care, and neither did the Yang family.
Truth be told, Yang Jiaming himself was a non-marital child!
In some families in Port City, polygamy is normal.
After all, that side only abolished polygamy in the 1970s.
With this realization, the woman attempted to dry her tears and adjusted her breathing and voice.
She picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and sent Yang Jiaming a voice message.
"Hubby~ don’t stress too much. It was my fault just now, I shouldn’t have brought up my emotions during this time~ I only panicked for a moment, that’s why I acted that way.
Go ahead and focus on your work at the company. I’ll be a good girl and won’t cause you any trouble.
Make sure to eat well while you work tonight~"
She sent a deliberately gentle voice message, and a few minutes later, Yang Jiaming replied.
Three words.
"Got it."
The woman gritted her teeth, holding the phone as if to crush it, then sent another three words: "Love you~"
After sending it, she threw the phone onto the sofa angrily and cursed loudly:
"Bastard man! Damn it!"
·
Lu Xiuting woke up three days later.
In those three days, the miraculous effects of the Divine Tree Juice had been absorbed by her body considerably.
Her weak body was gradually recovering, although she hadn’t returned to a normal state yet and still appeared a bit frail. But as time goes on and the effects of the Divine Tree Juice continue to be absorbed, her body will only become healthier.
Yet, an ordinary body has limited capacity, and while the effects of the Divine Tree Juice are extraordinary, they can’t be absorbed all at once. They will remain in her body, gradually taking effect over time.
