Chapter 528: 528, let’s get a divorce.
Xiao Yebai looked at her, his gaze deep and cool. Without the cover of glasses, his eyes were as deep and inscrutable as the deepest depths of the sea, unfathomable and unknowable.
After a while, he broke the silence, “You know now.”
“What do you mean?” Mo Weiyi didn’t understand.
“Everything has been resolved.” After Xiao Yebai finished speaking, a hint of impatience appeared on his face, “My throat is dry, I can’t talk much.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Damn it.
“Aren’t we still not divorced?” Xiao Yebai casually glanced at the cup of water on the bedside table, “If you don’t want to give me a drink, please call a nurse over.”
Mo Weiyi glared at him straight away with her beautiful cat-like eyes.
This damn man, was he intentionally pulling the injured-hero trick?
Even though compared to his usually dapper professional image, him in hospital clothes, furrowing his brows, did indeed seem… a bit haggard and pale.
A few seconds later, Mo Weiyi went over, picked up the cup of water from the bedside table.
When Xiao Yebai thought her conscience had been stirred and that she was going to feed him, Mo Weiyi suddenly tilted her hand.
All the warm water in the cup was poured onto the ground.
Until it was completely spilled and drained.
Xiao Yebai: “…”
After pouring out the entire cup of water, Mo Weiyi curled her red lips, “This cup has to be cleaned, it’s dirty.”
Then, she turned around and went into the bathroom.
Xiao Yebai sat on the hospital bed, watching her slender figure until she disappeared, the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
The man quietly pursed his thin lips, the corners lifting in a hardly noticeable smirk.
…
Mo Weiyi quickly finished washing the cup and came back, then looked around the room.
As if he knew what she was looking for, Xiao Yebai opened his mouth, “The water dispenser is next to the sofa.”
Mo Weiyi pursed her lips, didn’t say a word, but still went over to get some warm water, then sat down on the chair by the bed.
However…
Mo Weiyi had never taken care of a sick person before, so she hesitated before she picked up the spoon, scooped a full spoon of water, and handed it over hesitantly.
Her eyes were so focused on the water surface that was almost overflowing that she didn’t notice the expression on the man’s face, nor the change of emotion in his eyes.
When she got close, she saw his lips tightly pursed, and she impatiently opened her mouth, “Open your mouth.”
As soon as Xiao Yebai opened his mouth, she immediately shoved the spoon in.
As a result of her abrupt movement…
Though the water was fed, much of it spilled down the corners of his mouth.
Her delicate face crinkled instantly, Mo Weiyi pulled out a few tissues, and hurriedly wiped his chin.
Once she dropped the tissue, his voice suddenly came, “There’s still water on my neck.”
Mo Weiyi looked, and sure enough there was.
So she had to pull out a few more tissues and wiped his slender and pale neck lightly.
Then, she picked up the spoon again, about to scoop up water…
“Take a little less water.”
Mo Weiyi was instantly displeased, she raised her eyes to glare at him, “Drink or not, you choose!”
Xiao Yebai responded calmly, “I’ll drink.”
Maybe it was because she didn’t expect him to be so… compliant, Mo Weiyi was instantly struck dumb.
She pursed her lips but, nevertheless, poured a bit of water out of the spoon before handing it to him.
The rest of the process went much smoother.
Mo Weiyi kept feeding, and Xiao Yebai kept drinking.
Until he finished a whole bowl of water, she put down the small bowl, “Now that you’ve drunk water and your throat isn’t dry anymore, you can keep talking.”
Xiao Yebai looked at her, “What do you want me to say?”
Mo Weiyi said seriously, “Xiao Yebai, while I was staying in the countryside these past two days, I thought a lot about things. I couldn’t make up my mind, but on my way here just now, I finally figured it out. After 10 years, I really feel tired. I don’t want to keep going on like this.”
She took a deep breath, “Xiao Yebai, let’s get a divorce.”
She thought those few words would be hard and painful to say, yet when she said them, Mo Weiyi felt… they weren’t as difficult as she’d imagined.
The room was utterly silent.
The man, sitting in the hospital bed, looked calmly at her, his voice low and magnetic, “Are you sure?”
Mo Weiyi nodded, “I’m sure.”
“Have you really thought it through?” he asked again.
Mo Weiyi nodded again, “I have.”
Xiao Yebai’s expression remained unchanged, he opened his mouth coldly and said, “Weiyi, after the divorce, I won’t be your man anymore. I might leave Nancheng, you might never see me again, and next time you see me, there might be another woman by my side, we might even have children…”
“None of that is my business!” Mo Weiyi interrupted him fiercely.
“If that’s the case.”
Xiao Yebai’s handsome features tightened slightly, yet his tone remained as calm as ever, so calm that Mo Weiyi couldn’t detect any emotional fluctuations, “You can tell Grandpa.”
Mo Weiyi gripped her fingers tightly.
The sharp nail dug into her delicate palm, causing a throbbing pain.
Is that all?
That’s his reaction?
With a heart that was severely wounded, Mo Weiyi suddenly felt like laughing at this moment.
Just as he said, the decision was all hers.
Ten years of feelings, could really be abandoned with just one sentence from her.
And he didn’t care about it all, didn’t even want to fight for it.
Fine.
Mo Weiyi nodded again, then picked up her phone.
As she was dialing the number, she hesitated for a moment, then finally chose to call Mo Yaoxiong’s number.
