An arrogant man needs to find a step and a reason for himself.
"Ah?" Secretary Li was surprised and asked, "You have been married for two years. Don't you know that your wife is allergic to pollen?"
The implication is that you are so unqualified as a husband!
When Wen Zhan heard this, his face became darker, and he raised his hand to chase people away: "Go out, don't let them bother me if it's nothing important."
Secretary Li: "..."
The office was quiet, and the depression on Wen Zhan's face was even more undisguised.
The women at home were not coaxed well, and on the other side, I didn’t know what was going on with Gu Xinchen and his wife.
In the past, he would definitely call and ask and show concern, but now he doesn't dare to break the rules casually.
I don’t even know what went wrong and how it ended up like this.
There was also Lu Kejun's drunken talk last night, saying that he fell in love with the woman at home just because she gave birth to a child.
What a fantasy!
How bad is his taste? He clearly knows that the woman has bad character, but he still likes her?
But for the sake of his two children who were waiting to be fed, he had to continue to maintain this marriage.
When the children are older, even if they are eight or nine years old, or at least one year old - he will definitely separate from her without hesitation!
When the time comes, he will take the initiative to draw a clear line before she comes to divorce.

Wen Zhan didn't call, but at around three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Kejun took the initiative to call.
Seeing the caller ID, he hesitated, but still couldn't refuse.
"Kejun, are you sober?"
Lu Kejun said feebly: "That's right, but I have a headache. It's been hurting for most of the day..."
"That's what you get when you're drunk. Don't drink anymore." He tried to persuade him in a normal tone.
"I know." Lu Kejun replied obediently, paused for two seconds, and then asked awkwardly, "Um... Xinchen didn't quarrel with you last night, right?"
When Wen Zhan heard that there was something in this, he asked instead of answering: "Why, what did he tell you?"
"It's nothing. It's just what happened at noon yesterday. Anyway, I think it's quite normal. He's a grown man with too many thoughts. He thinks about a lot of messy things and speaks very ugly words. I'm afraid that if I'm drunk, he'll take out his anger on you and treat you badly. Losing your temper."
Wen Zhan pulled his lips lightly and said, "It's okay. I understand his temperament and won't argue with him."
"Well... I knew you were the best. Ever since we were young, you have tolerated us." After Lu Kejun said this, his nose became sour for no reason.
She seemed to understand only now that the secret of a woman's happiness is not to find someone she likes, but to find someone who likes herself and is tolerant and caring for herself.
It's a pity that she understood a little late, everything was a foregone conclusion.
When Wen Zhan heard her sobbing, his face tightened: "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Did you two quarrel again today?"
Lu Kejun quickly denied: "No... When I got up in the morning, he cooked porridge for me. During breakfast, he also apologized, saying that he was too busy yesterday and didn't find me in time in the afternoon. He didn't mean it."
Since her husband was willing to bow his head and admit his mistake, she followed the steps.
Who said that this marriage was her own choice? She has to taste the bitter consequences by herself.
"That's good. It's normal for couples to quarrel, don't take it too seriously." Wen Zhan comforted calmly.
"Um."
Seeing that she had nothing to say, Wen Zhan took the initiative and said: "I'm still busy here, you can continue to rest."
"Uh-huh."
The woman responded twice in succession, and Wen Zhan was about to hang up.
The other side suddenly called out again: "Third Brother."
His heart twitched again: "Is there anything else?"
Lu Kejun asked in a low voice and slowly: "Third brother...am I not allowed to come to you casually in the future?"
Gu Xinchen said early in the morning that the three of them would never be able to go back to the way they were in the past, and told her to wake up and keep a distance after getting married and having children.
Thinking that the relationship that had lasted so many years would end like this, she felt very sad and even regretted getting married so early.
When Wen Zhan was asked by her, it seemed as if all the strength in his body was instantly taken away, and his whole body was in a daze from pain.
Gu Xinchen told her not to look for him again?
Is this going to draw a clear line?
"You..." After hesitating for a while, he slowly raised his breath and finally regained his strength. "You can still come to me if you have anything to do. Even if it's not convenient for me to come forward, I will tell others to do it."
When Lu Kejun heard the words "it's not convenient to come forward," he burst into tears.
"Third brother...yes, I'm sorry-" She didn't know why she wanted to apologize, but she couldn't help but want to apologize.
Wen Zhan obviously understood the meaning of this sorry sentence, his face trembled slightly, and he hung up the phone first.

When Mu Wanqing took the children to the hospital to accompany her grandfather, she met her mother-in-law Jiang Lijuan.
In front of the old man, Jiang Lijuan was kind-hearted, caring for her daughter-in-law, and even more so for her grandchildren.
But when the old man took a rest and they left together, the smile on Jiang Lijuan's face fell instantly, without staying for a second longer.
In the past, Mu Wanqing respected her mother-in-law, and even secretly flattered her.
At that time, she thought about living well with Wen Zhan.
But now, she knows that she will never be able to cover up Wen Zhan's heart, nor can she win the eyes of her arrogant husband's family - she has completely lost interest in this marriage, and naturally she doesn't want to cater to her mother-in-law anymore.
Jiang Lijuan also noticed the change in her. She glanced at her several times in the elevator and asked quietly, "Did you quarrel with A Zhan?"
Mu Wanqing was startled, then looked back at her mother-in-law with a dull expression, "No..."
"Humph, your face is almost on the ground, and you still say no? Aren't they all getting divorced?"
Jiang Lijuan exposed it directly, stared at her with disdain, paused and began to lecture, "It's hard enough for a man to work hard outside. When he comes home, he has to face his wife's elongated face and threaten divorce at every turn. In those days, there are still What are you looking forward to? Marrying into our Wen family and realizing a class leap is a blessing you have earned over several lifetimes. If you don’t cherish it and be grateful, you will still be working every day!"
Obviously, Jiang Lijuan did not believe that she would be willing to divorce. She believed that she was relying on her having given birth to twins, and deliberately used divorce to blackmail her son in order to achieve a certain goal.
But Mu Wanqing had firmly decided on the idea of divorce, so she had no worries at all, and immediately responded rudely, "If there is a problem in the relationship between husband and wife, must it be the woman's fault? Why don't you ask yourself what good things your son has done? Why don't you ask yourself what good things your son has done?" Yes, I think divorce is serious and not a threat.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator door opened.
Mu Wanqing and her confinement nanny, each pushing a stroller, walked out first.
"Hey, you-" Jiang Lijuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
A little orphan girl with no father and mother, with a humble background, actually dares to defy her mother-in-law! Where does she get the confidence?
"Mu Wanqing, stop!" Jiang Lijuan couldn't swallow this breath, so she followed out and shouted loudly.
