Before and After Divorce

Su Yan stood on the stairs wearing a white shirt. Xia Tingwan looked up at him. It was the man who had slept with him for five years, but for a moment, he was so unfamiliar that he didn’t know how to speak. 

“Sit down.”

Su Yan came down. He did not shy away from Xia Tingwan. He gently supported the young man’s waist and said gently, “I want to talk to Mr. Xia alone.”

“Mhm.” The young man looked at Su Yan with gentle and bright eyes. He nodded obediently, “Brother Yan, I’ll go up to accompany Ning Ning.”

It was impossible to fake his expression. Xia Tingwan only needed to look once and understood the young man’s love for Su Yan. Su Yan’s actions and words have also recognized the position of youth in this Su mansion. 

Xia Tingwan suddenly felt that it was a big mistake to appear here.

A month ago, this was his home, but now he was an uninvited guest. How ridiculous, he thought Su Yan couldn’t give up, and he thought he had a chance to try again.

“Is something wrong?”

“I’ll ask the housekeeper to check it. If there are any omissions, I’ll have someone send it to you tomorrow.”

The clumsy excuse that Xia Tingwan came up with temporarily, of course, was immediately dismissed by Su Yan. Su Yan bent his back, although he didn’t stand up, he vaguely expressed his urgency: “Is there anything else?” 

“No, I…”

Xia Tingwan subconsciously replied, but when he raised his head and looked at Su Yan’s light gray eyes, his nose was sour.

“Su Yan, why divorce me?”

He still asked obstinately. 

“Have you fallen in love with someone else? But you told me that time, I’ll be your little prince forever… Don’t you remember?”

The love words were said when love was burning hot, but at this time, it was nothing but embarrassing and shameful. Xia Tingwan knew that his questioning was too willful.

But how could Su Yan change his mind?

How could he change his mind after saying such a thing to him? How could he hold him in the palm of his hand for five years and then let him fall to the ground. 

If love also has a limit and if he can only be a little prince for five years, why not tell him early.

“Xia Tingwan.”

Su Yan’s eyes stared at Xia Tingwan for the first time today, his face tensed, showing a serious look.

“When we got married five years ago, it was you who said that you were forced and reluctant; it was you who said that you liked a younger and handsome man; it was you who insisted on signing a prenuptial agreement and said that you didn’t want my money when divorcing; it was you who got drunk and kissed another man and was photographed by a weekly magazine; it was you who ran out drunk and drove a speeding car half a year ago after losing temper with me. You have no sense of security and you wanted face, so if you do something wrong, you also need someone else to give steps for your steps are a little soft. You never cared about my marriage with you. For so many years, because I love you, I have given face and lining. I’m tired. 

Xia Tingwan’s body trembled, it was clearly the answer he asked, but every time Su Yan said a word, he felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to cover his ears. At the end of Su Yan’s words, his eyes were full of tears, and he tried his best to restrain himself to not cry in front of Su Yan.

His courage, which he had just scraped together, collapsed at this moment.

For five years, Su Yan has never turned his back on him.

No matter how angry he was, as long as he forgives and turns the page, he will never mention anything from now on, so there are some mistakes that even Xia Tingwan seems to have forgotten.

“I was wrong,” he choked: “Sir, I know I’m wrong…” 

In his previous sentence, he called him Su Yan, but this word has been replaced by Sir.

He used to call Su Yan “Sir” only in bed and when he was coquettishly spoiled. At this time, he said it because of fear.

He had never admitted his fault so simply in front of Su Yan, but even if he did, his heart was full of panic.

He even wanted to stop time at this moment eternally, so that he wouldn’t have to hear Su Yan’s next words. 

“I’m tired, and I don’t want to take care of you anymore. Since you asked me, I’ll tell you.”

Su Yan’s voice was low. He repeated the word “tired” again, but the expression on his face was calm and he slowly said, “I divorced you because I don’t love you anymore, which has nothing to do with others. I neither love you nor hate you, and I don’t owe you nor do I miss you. Therefore, if there’s nothing wrong, there is no need to see you again in the future.”
