Chapter 1401: Sleep in the Living Room

?Chapter 1401: Sleep in the Living Room

In her heart, Cai Anqi had always looked down upon Wang Bo and felt that she had lowered herself by marrying him. It was only right for Wang Bo to cherish her, protect her, and listen to every whim of hers.
But now he had actually dared to hit her. Cai Anqi felt offended and was so furious that she wanted to just skin him alive.
What the hell was this?
To put it bluntly, Cai Anqi felt that she was worthy of a better man. A man who had money, power, and looks and knew how to be romantic, yet she had married a man who didn’t have any of those qualities.
And he even hit her.
When Wang Bo saw Cai Anqi pitifully holding her face, he got frustrated with himself. His heart ached for Cai Anqi, and he repeatedly apologized. “Anqi, I didn’t mean to. Don’t cry.”
“Then hand me your salary card,” said Cai Anqi immediately with a sharp tone.
She was not going to let go of the fact that he hit her this easily.
Wang Bo furrowed his eyebrows and didn’t know how to respond for a long time. When Cai Anqi saw him hesitate, she became even more upset and aggressively pushed him out of the bedroom. “You sleep in the living room today.”
Then she shut the door with a loud bang.
Wang Bo stood outside the closed door and tousled his hair in a vexed manner. He wanted to knock on the door but felt guilty for hitting Cai Anqi.
Wang Bo had no choice but to sleep on the sofa again.
Ning Shu brought out a summer sleeping mat and pillows, spread it out on the ground, and said to Wang Bo, “Don’t sleep on the sofa. It’s uncomfortable.”
“Mom.” When Wang Bo saw Ning Shu, a troubled and guilty expression appeared on his face.
Ning Shu smiled in understanding and said, “Couples living together must support each other. They need to make up for each other’s shortcomings and accompany one another for a lifetime. If either one starts thinking differently, the marriage won’t last for long.”
“Back then, your father had fallen in love with another. There was no meaning left in our marriage even if we had managed to stay together. I watched your father long for another woman, and I felt sad. So when our marriage ended, I actually felt better.” Ning Shu looked towards Wang Bo. “I don’t really have a wish, but I just hope you could be happy.”
Wang Bo took a deep breath with a tired look on his face. He forced a smile at Ning Shu and said, “I understand.”
“Have a good rest.” Ning Shu didn’t bother to ask Cai Anqi why she had made her son sleep on the living room sofa.
That would’ve placed Wang Bo in a worse situation. Wang Bo wasn’t very smart, nor was he smooth. There was no way he would’ve been able to mediate the contradiction between the two women.
Mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law were always going to have their differences. It was a natural and irreconcilable ‘class strife.’
Yang Ziyi had devoted all her life to her son and had endured the idea that ‘getting a daughter-in-law equated to the death of a son.’
In the end, her beloved son was utterly trampled by this woman. What did that woman take her son to be?
A woman with no self-respect and love for herself dared to act noble and aloof in front of her son.
The next morning, Ning Shu made breakfast for Wang Bo. Wang Bo glanced at the closed door to his bedroom and hesitated, but in the end, he still knocked.
Cai Anqi was still simmering in her anger. When she opened the door, she had an awful expression on her face. It caused Wang Bo to also have a bad mood in the early morning. His original intention was to apologize, but from the way she looked, he knew she was probably not going to listen to him.
Wang Bo went into the room, got changed, and left for work without a word.
Cai Anqi watched Wang Bo in disbelief as he left just like that. She felt her anger peak once more. What was with his attitude?
Ning Shu saw a red mark on Cai Anqi’s face, which was clearly made by Wang Bo last night.
Cai Anqi noticed Ning Shu’s gaze on her face. She rolled her eyes in annoyance and slammed her bedroom door shut again.
But Ning Shu wasn’t bothered by her. If she didn’t want to eat, so be it.
