Bab 5: Rejection
Editor: Atlas Studios
"It doesn't matter if I die of old age and illness, I've already gotten over it. I just can't stop worrying about you." Bai Ran's mother looked at the ceiling with a melancholic expression. "Tell me, what did he tell you when you went back yesterday? Did he mention it to you?"
"Yes, I've already signed the divorce agreement." Bai Ran told her mother the truth calmly. At this moment, if she still did not tell her anything, her mother might be even more worried and it might affect her condition.
Although she said it very calmly, her heart still hurt when she said it herself.
"Mom, don't worry. Although I'm divorced, I can still live well and take good care of you." Bai Ran squeezed out a smile and comforted her mother.
"That's right. My daughter is so good. Her life won't be bad! Let's find someone more outstanding in the future!" Bai Ran's mother looked at Bai Ran's forced smile and couldn't bear to expose her.
The mother and daughter comforted each other and soon fell asleep again.
The next morning, Bai Ran lay in front of the bed and woke up in a daze. Just as she was about to raise her body, she saw a blanket on her back. It belonged to the Chen family.
Bai Ran was a little confused, but she saw Chen Chen standing beside her from the corner of her eye.
She stood up as if she had been electrocuted. "Why are you here?"
Then, seeing that the hospital bed was empty, she was a little anxious and wanted to look for her mother.
Chen Chen stopped her. "Your mother has been taken by the nurse for a checkup. Don't worry. She'll be back soon."
"And why can't I come? This isn't your mother alone, she's my mother-in-law," Chen Chen continued.
When Bai Ran heard this, she felt very helpless. It was ironic that he could treat his wife's mother as his mother but not treat her as his wife. Furthermore, they were about to get divorced.
At the thought of this, she took back the blanket on her and tidied it up before handing it to Chen Chen. She said politely, "Thank you. Sorry to trouble you."
"Is there a need to be so polite?" Chen Chen did not take it. "Just leave it here. Use it next time and don't catch a cold."
Was he concerned about her? Bai Ran was a little surprised, but she suppressed this thought immediately.
She warned herself not to have such daydreams again.
He belonged to Sister Wan. He belonged to Sister Hu Wan. He belonged to Sister Wan! Important things had to be said thrice!
After calming down, Bai Ran replied coldly, "There's no need. Leave these words to Sister Wan. She needs them more than me and is more suitable for them. Go take care of her quickly."
With that, she moved aside and gestured for him to leave.
Seeing this action, Chen Chen was even more furious. "Hey, why are you acting so distant… We haven't gotten a divorce yet!"
"No? I've already signed it!" Bai Ran's tone was still cold.
"I haven't signed it yet! Our procedures haven't been completed either!" Chen Chen suddenly argued like a child.
"What's the point in saying this? You reminded me, hurry up and find a time to go with me to settle the procedures. That way, you can marry Sister Wan sooner," Bai Ran replied calmly.
"You're really considerate of your Sister Wan!" Chen Chen pursed his lips into a line.
"Yes, isn't that what you want?" Bai Ran did not want to continue the conversation with him. Otherwise, she would still have fantasies.
"Also, hurry up and leave. I'll take care of my mother myself." Bai Ran continued to chase him away.
"Do you really not want me to stay here? Could it be that someone will come later?" Chen Chen looked at Bai Ran suspiciously.
Bai Ran had a clear conscience. She looked into his eyes and said, "No, I just want you to maintain your boundaries. At this moment, Sister Wan needs you more than I do. Don't come over again."
As Bai Ran spoke, she wanted to pull him out. She really did not want Chen Chen to visit her mother again from the bottom of her heart. She did not want to see his face that reminded her of her one-sided love. She did not want to see him do this because of her so-called identity as his wife and their so-called family ties.
Since the two of them were going to completely cut ties soon, there was no need to remain in contact.
At this moment, a nurse pushed Bai Ran's mother in.
Bai Ran and the nurse helped her mother onto the bed. Chen Chen wanted to help, but he was rejected by Bai Ran.
Seeing Bai Ran's actions, Bai Ran's mother finally felt relieved.
It seemed like Ran Ran was also planning to start her new life.
After the nurse left, Bai Ran's mother looked at Chen Chen and said sincerely, "I already know about you two. Since you've already made your decision, then let's all live separately from now on. I believe this will be good for you and Ran Ran."
"Yes!" This reply made Chen Chen a little aggrieved. He did not know how to describe his feelings.
