Divorced, but Still Yours

Gu Mingxuan said, “Even if we get divorced, you’ll still be my woman. When I want you, you don’t get to say no. We can divorce, but you’re not getting away from me.” Xia Mo said, “Gu Mingxuan, could you possibly be any more shameless?” Gu Mingxuan said, “How am I shameless? Who’s the one who keeps climbing into my bed?” Grinding her teeth, Xia Mo swore she’d stay as far away from this man as possible. Divorce was the first step; getting free of him was the goal! When the Xia family learned Xia Mo had gotten divorced: Her mother: “Will Gu Mingxuan still pay your younger brother’s tuition?” Her father: “Will he still help your older brother get promoted?” Her older brother: “Can I still get the employee discount on the development project I just launched?” Her sister-in-law: “Xia Mo really is such an inconsiderate girl.” Xia Mo moved out and started supporting herself. Her wish was simple: she just wanted a quiet, ordinary life. But could someone explain why, after the divorce, one admirer after another kept appearing? Gu Mingxuan: “I really don’t get to decide whether we divorce.” Grandpa Gu: “Are you even a man?” Gu Mingxuan: “Ever since we got married, Xia Mo has been the one in charge of everything, from buying a house and a car to putting food on the table. If she says she wants a divorce, how could I dare refuse?”
