Chapter 114

Tang Bai didn't expect things to go this far, and he watches Gu Mian and Li Songyun arguing with the yam clay base with a confused look on his face.

The pheromones of the unfamiliar alpha caused discomfort in Tang Bai's body; his skin ached, and the glands bitten by Xie Ruhang swelled instantly.

Gu Mian's level is very high, even though Tang Bai is more than ten meters away from Gu Mian, the horrible pressure still makes his head numb, Tang Bai dares not to imagine what is the experience of facing Gu Mian's Li Songyun at close range.

Then he saw Li Songyun calmly push Gu Mian away and turn toward him like nothing happened.

Tang Bai: "!!!"

Tang Bai was shocked and delighted, and just wanted to say something, but suddenly realized something was wrong: "Uncle Li, your hand is bleeding!"

Li Songyun calmly finds the medical kit he just bought at his new home and wraps himself in a bandage before telling Tang Bai, "It's okay, let's keep making oyster fillets, luckily the only thing we'll be doing next is frying them and plating them up."

Tang Bai: "?!"

[Mr. Lai don't do it! Let's chatter!]

[Mr. Lai your live room is bursting!]

[Hot search 19]

[Crouching hot search is 13 in one go!]

Tang Bai felt his brain ache as he logged onto StarNet and looked at it, the eighth most popular search, and the public opinion was exploding.

Gu Mian used to be the god of the Federation, the dream of countless omega. Li Songyun marrying Gu Mian was a dreamy fairy tale, Cinderella marrying the prince, and they lived happily ever after.

But what makes a fairy tale a fairy tale is that it doesn't bring to light the mess behind the glitz and glamor of married life.

A pair of everyone's envy of the model husband and wife divorced, or in the heat of the live broadcast staged divorce drama, the melon crowd naturally curious about the reasons.

Some people found out that Jiao Jian is Lu En in the game, some guessed that Jiao Jian has a crush on Li Songyun, and some said that Li Songyun just moved out of Gu's house today with a moving company ......

Not only is there a lot of buzz about whether or not Gu Mian and Li Songyun's divorce was due to Jiao Jian's meddling, there is also concern that Li Songyun was unaffected by Gu Mian's pheromones, which Tang Bai is also curious about, but now the focus is on getting Li Songyun to make a clarification.

Tang Bai is as anxious as an octopus ball on a hot pan, he is at a loss as to what to do at this moment, they originally intended to do food live, now the rhythm is all disrupted, what's worse is that Jiao Jian also appeared in the live broadcast, the society has been more critical of omega in the marriage, after seeing Jiao Jian, those Li Songyun cheating comments are flying all over the sky.

Jiao Jian is completely unable to sit still, and is eager to argue with the pop-ups that are slandering Li Songyun, but the most calm person in the room is Li Songyun.

He was concentrating fully on making oyster fillets.

After pouring a moderate amount of oil into a wok, Li Songyun uses chopsticks to hold the flour-coated fish slices and fries them one by one in the wok, holding them in place with chopsticks, bending the slices to form the curvature of a flower petal, and pulling them out when they're about eight minutes cooked.

There was a popping sound of bubbles boiling in a frying pan as one pointed question after another was posed on the air.

--"Are you cheating on your wife?"

--"Why did you divorce Gu Mian? Did Gu Mian do something wrong to you?"

-- "A normal person can't sue for divorce and find a new house and move in one day, you're not planning this for a long time, are you?"

-- "Your youngest child with Major General Gu is only six years old, right, and you don't even consider the child's feelings in your divorce?"

Hot oil sizzles the fish fillets, frying the snow-white fillets until they are golden brown, like a series of cannonballs of questions that do not give Li Songyun the slightest respite, bombarded by rounds and frantically brushed the screen.

-- "Why don't you answer the question? Is it a weak heart?!"

--"Major General Gu fought in the battlefield and spilled his blood, if you, an omega who enjoys happiness at home, dare to do anything wrong to Major General Gu, we can drown you with a single spit!"

Li Songyun took a deep breath as he calmed his pheromone-manipulated body with such repetitive motions that it was the only way he wouldn't have to snatch the door open to submit to the alpha outside.

Thanks to Gu Mian's years of asking him to be "independent and self-reliant", he was able to disobey his instincts and leave Gu Mian at a critical moment.

"I got divorced because of twenty-six long years of cold violence and widowed parenting." Li Songyun lifts his eyes, his voice cool, like a cold scalpel that cuts bloody through his scars.

"Cold violence is not being beaten, it is being coldly treated, demeaned, and denied, whether it be my taste, my words, my actions, or anything, it is picked on by the Gu's, and it has made me question my worth for a long time, and I know that I am a househusband, even though there has never been any profession called househusband."

"In any profession you do well, you'll reap the compliments of your boss and coworkers, but not in housework."

"Being Mrs. Gu is even less so."

"My self-confidence was destroyed over and over again, and the person ' Li Songyun ' was reshaped from one blow to the next, and he finally became the perfect Mrs. Gu." Li Songyun showed a standard smile, even the curves of his mouth had been harshly calculated.

He smiled and said, "So he finally got compliments on his independence, self-reliance, thrift, grace, tolerance, and thoughtfulness ......"

Tang Bai inexplicably felt a chill as he stared blankly at Li Songyun, unable to imagine what this seemingly perfect and elegant omega had gone through.

"He needs to conceive four children, endure the absence of his husband during pregnancy, endure the absence of his husband during the parenting phase, and endure the absence of his husband during all phases of his children's development."

"His husband, a military officer with a busy official schedule, is required to be independent, honor his elders, and educate his children, as well as overcome the effects of high-match pheromones and leave his husband plenty of personal space."

"It's like he's wearing mask after mask, so many masks that it's suffocating him. He turned to the outside world, to Gu Mian, to the Lai family."

"But the outside world tells him to be tolerant, to be grateful, to be strong ...... And they put a new layer of masks on him."

"He grew to not expect anything from his beneficiaries, and when he was on the verge of giving up on resistance and communication, he gained the first support of his life."

"From his children."

Li Songyun's eyes softened, "His children said they hoped he could live the life he wanted."

What kind of life did he want, what kind of life did he ever want?

Stayed on at the Liturgical Institute as a culinary faculty member, teaching students to make delicious little desserts.

Li Songyun gazes down at the unfinished peony fish fillet, with julienned carrots serving as the stamen, and the golden fillet resting on a base of mashed yam.

Trying to arrange the fish fillets in the shape of a peony flower is a test of aesthetic ability and patience, and you need to insert the fish fillets in sequence around the carrot, carefully adjusting the position and angle of each fillet.

These time-consuming and labor-intensive process of making food made him happy, he did not pursue material things, did not want to become some noble lady, but ah, mother said that his younger brother had great ambitions, said that his father's business could grow bigger and bigger if he had connections, said that he had a good fate, that his pheromones could be a high match for Gu Mian, and said that he was a blessing for the Lai family, and that the future of the Lai family was all in his hands.

"It's been too long as Mrs. Gu, so long that he's forgotten what he really wants, and that's when this is the time that he sees Tang Bai live."

Tang Bai looked at Li Songyun in awe.

"The child who radiates heat and light like a little sun just lights me up."

Li Songyun smiled, he gently touched Tang Bai's head with the palm of his bandaged hand, "I finally understand that it is too hard to wait for the understanding of the bystanders, and that I can only rely on myself if I want to get out of my current situation, only by educating my children myself can my children learn to respect and love the omega, and only by grasping my own power and career can the voices I raise be be heard by more people."

"My dream now is for all omega's to live the life they want."

"That's why I started this livestream, if no one stands up and says it, if no one makes a change, then the vast majority of omega's in the world are going to repeat the same mistakes I made, if not more miserable than I was. I want all omega's to not be chained to their marriages and families, and to realize that we are worth so much more than that."

*

Li Songyun opens the door to his new home and prepares to welcome Jiang Youwen, but is somewhat surprised to find Gu Mian still standing in front of his house.

Gu Mian's expression changed little as he pulled a black velvet box from his pocket, "This is the diamond ring you didn't take with you."

"Gu Mian, I told you, I won't take away any of the valuable ornaments, they belong to Mrs. Gu-" Li Songyun was just in the middle of his sentence when he was interrupted by Gu Mian.

"You take it away and I'll sign the divorce papers." Gu Mian opens the box, and the gorgeous diamond ring shimmers faintly in the darkness.

The first time Li Songyun saw the ring was at his engagement party with Gu Mian, who took his hand, put the ring on his finger, and said to him, "Li Songyun, please marry me".

"Are you serious?" Li Songyun was in a bit of disbelief.

Gu Mian nods.

Li Songyun immediately from Gu Mian hand to take the box, this small box was Gu Mian grip very tight, a time completely can not take away, in Li Songyun thought Gu Mian to go back on their word, Gu Mian opened, "you are a good wife, good father, good daughter-in-law, thank you for so many years for the Gu family's contribution. Thank you for all the years you have given to the Gu family."

"I'm sorry."

He said, "I'm sorry for making you Mrs. Gu for so many years."

Gu Mian loosened his grip, the two pulling forces lost their balance, and in the moment Li Songyun didn't react, the sparkling diamond ring tumbled out of the box and onto the ground.

Li Songyun bends down to pick up the diamond ring.

The night wind was a bit cold, Gu Mian turned to walk out in silence, he saw Tang's mother, Gu Tunan, Gu Peifeng, and many omegas he was not familiar with coming to his new home.

Those people surrounded Li Songyun, they entered the warm and bright new home with great enthusiasm, some people said that they would go shopping with Li Songyun tomorrow, some people asked Li Songyun if she wanted to go out for a trip, the voices became more and more distant, and finally were completely blocked by that door.

Gu Mian stood in the darkness, and Li Songyun never looked back at him.

This was the last time Li Songyun met him as Mrs. Gu, his legal wife.

When Gu Mian returns to his empty and cold home, he opens the closet and realizes that Li Songyun hasn't even left him a single piece of clothing to build a nest in.

After sitting alone in the cold, hard chair for a long time, Gu Mian took out the piece of divorce paper and signed his name on it.
