Cai Xiaoqing did her best to help Warmth fend off all unreasonable issues. This might be her last service for Warmth, so she put in even more effort.
Cheng Anya watched the live stream of Warmth's reception on TV and felt regretful in her heart.
Regarding Ye Feimo divorcing her, Cheng Anya did not obstruct it. They were both adults with their own thoughts; they had their reasons for doing things, right or wrong, which they should bear the consequences themselves.
One only knows the pain of certain matters after experiencing them firsthand.
She also could not get involved too much in her son's affairs.
Yet,
she really felt regretful about it.
She liked Warmth as a daughter-in-law very much, and at this crucial juncture of divorce, Ye Feimo acted like nothing happened, showing no abnormalities. But Cheng Anya knew that everything had changed.
Back then when Ye Feimo broke up with Han Bi, he was indulging in alcohol and living a debauched life.
But now, he appeared cold and indifferent.
She feared this kind of Ye Feimo even more. She always worried that something might happen to him; the calmer he acted, the more fearful she became.
No matter how dazzling his appearance was, it had already rotted from within.
The most terrifying thing was that this rot happened silently and unnoticed by anyone.
By the time someone noticed, it might be too late for any remedy.
The Young Master Ye placed a glass of juice in front of Cheng Anya and glanced at the TV. "Don't watch anymore; why bother yourself"
Cheng Anya did not know what to say either. She took the cantaloupe juice and said, "Feimo has come to this point, don't you worry Look at how he looks now. I'm really worried that one day we'll be asked by the police station to identify a body."
"Stop exaggerating, okay"
"How is it exaggerated" Cheng Anya retorted. "I wish I could install something on him so that I know what he's doing 24/7 and whether he’s safe. Given such a big incident, he hasn’t reacted at all. Is this normal"
Young Master Ye hmphed, "He has never been normal since childhood. Do you want him to give you a normal reaction"
"Shut up," Cheng Anya couldn't help but shout. She didn’t believe that Young Master Ye wasn’t worried about Ye Feimo. Men were often hypocritical; they obviously felt just as anxious for their son as she did, yet they put on this indifferent face. Was it really so shameful to admit one’s concern for their child
But then again, perhaps separating was better for both of them. She hoped that Feimo could see reason and her heart would feel a bit better too. Next month, Ningning and Xu Nuo would be back, and the family could be happy together. Perhaps this would help bring Feimo out of his funk.
Ye Ningyuan’s handover work was nearing completion, with the first terror organization officially taken over by Kaka. Xu Nuo had already resigned from her position as chief anti-terrorism supervisor. She remained in America to wait until Ye Ningyuan’s matters were settled so that they could return together and settle down.
Young Master Ye frowned, "You should be worried about his surgery first."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Anya's heart sank. Baiye had called them already, giving them a heads-up to prepare themselves mentally. Feimo’s condition was not optimistic. Cheng Anya hadn’t hidden it from Ye Feimo; she had been honest with him because she wanted Ye Feimo to be mentally prepared as well.
When Baiye said it wasn't optimistic, it definitely wasn't optimistic.
The situation was very grim.
Thinking of this made Cheng Anya hate Han Bi for the first time. She also regretted hesitating back then and not taking action earlier; sometimes she blamed herself for choosing a wrong approach. If she had chosen a more tactful method, perhaps Feimo would have accepted it better and wouldn’t be in such a situation.
"I’ve already lost my daughter; I don't want to lose my son," Cheng Anya murmured. Young Master Ye was deeply pained in his heart.
Hailan and Feimo
The scenes of them playing around when they were young seemed still vividly present in the living room, with the setup there that Cheng Anya always hesitated to change. Seeing things reminded her of people; although no one talked about it, both knew deep down that their daughter was an everlasting pain in their hearts.
Out of fear of hurting Ye Ningyuan and Xu Nuo’s feelings, they never showed their emotions.
Now Feimo was facing a life-or-death situation again, easily stirring up the pain in Cheng Anya’s heart.
This kind of person had already become accustomed to dealing with life and death when young. They weren’t afraid anymore and were mentally prepared for it. But how could they easily talk about death or accept it when facing their closest loved ones
The sea blue had spent thirteen years with them, and even a lifetime wouldn't be enough to heal the wounds; let alone for Wenran and Feimu.
"Don't worry, there will be a turning point."
Cheng Anya sighed, hoping that would be the case.
Ye Feimu was also watching the press conference live stream. He watched it from his study on the 45th floor of Ming City, where curtains blocked out the indoor light, casting everything in darkness. The makeup on the livestream was heavy, but could not hide her fatigue.
Throughout the entire event, she didn't cry or say a single word blaming anyone.
Affairs such as scandals, humiliation, divorce, and contract termination were all negative news; at a press conference, one would usually shed a few tears for dramatic effect. Who was it that didn’t do this
However, Wenran did not.
The entire time she maintained a faint smile. When asked by a reporter why she had divorced, Wenran smiled and said, "Due to incompatible personalities."
Incompatible personalities was a very good excuse; many people used this as an explanation for their divorces, saying that they were just incompatible. Wenran was no exception—this reason was the most convincing one when addressing rumors about divorce. He never wanted to respond to such gossip.
Deep in his heart, he clearly knew that he and Wenran had ended.
He didn't want to accept it, but he had to.
The cold words she spoke still echoed in his ears. With his broken body, why prolong the inevitable
He would let her go.
This relationship was truly arduous; painful yet joyful at times.
As they had said before, even if it were tiring, he was willing to do so happily. But Wenran didn't understand such willingness.
The happiness and joy of being with her far outweighed the pain and exhaustion.
But during this period, he experienced all sorts of bitterness and despair.
He finally understood that the greatest sorrow is when one's heart has lost all hope.
It turns out that pain cannot be alleviated by drowning oneself in a haze of intoxication and delusion, for pain always occupies one’s rational mind at every moment.
It turns out that when one reaches the limit of suffering, there are no tears left to shed.
It turns out that when one is in sorrow, they have no emotions.
"I will bless him forever and be grateful to him for giving me my most brilliant year." This was what Nuannuan said during the press conference, and Ye Feimo's heart felt as if it had been stabbed by those words.
