At this point, she comes to question herself.

Could it be that she’s having regrets?

Didn’t she agree to it in the first place?

Unable to part with wealth and honor, now she pretends to take the moral high ground?

“But that’s our daughter, and at this time, you can actually still smile!” Sun Jiao said angrily.

Looking at Bai Ao’s smile, she found it somewhat terrifying.

This man had been her partner for twenty years.

In this moment, she felt as if she didn’t know him at all.

No, she had never known him.

“Ha, what’s wrong with you? Are you regretting it now, feeling pity? Let me tell you, if it doesn’t work out, we’ll all end up poor. Isn’t it worth sacrificing one person for the good of the whole family? You agreed to it from the start, and now it’s too late for regrets. There’s no chance to make amends. If you’re really feeling sad, go back to your room. Don’t come out and embarrass yourself. Soon, Mr. Jia will be coming. Don’t spoil Mr. Jia’s mood!” Bai Ao stood up, pointing at Sun Jiao, his voice filled with malice.

This woman is only good at messing things up.

Back then, he really had been blind to marry such a woman.

All she did was bear him a daughter who brought nothing but losses, putting him behind his younger brother, always the butt of ridicule, which he was fed up with.

Once this was over, he would divorce her. He could find someone else, maybe with effort, he could still have children.

He almost reveled thinking about it.

His good days seemed just around the corner.

Sun Jiao had no idea what Bai Ao was plotting. Had she known, she would have been driven mad with anger.

But, she could sense that Bai Ao was scheming something.

Deep down, she had a bad feeling about this.

“You, Bai Ao, have gone too far!” Sun Jiao burst into tears in an instant.

She sat on the sofa and began to cry.

All the grievances and bitterness stored in her heart erupted in that moment.

People whispered that it was her poor fortune that she couldn’t bear a son, that even if she did, the child would not survive, and so on.

What use was a good daughter when she would just end up marrying out eventually?

The things people said were as mean as could be, and she always pretended not to hear them. It wasn’t what she wanted.

What had she done wrong for people to speak of her so?

She truly didn’t understand!

What kind of society was it now to still hold onto the ideas of valuing males over females, of male superiority and female inferiority?

“Women are not as good as men,” they say, when many men are not as good as women!

Every time she thought about these things, it deeply saddened her.

“Cry, cry, cry, that’s all you do. Besides crying, what else can you do? If you dare to dampen Mr. Jia’s spirits later, I’ll settle the score with you!” Bai Ao said.

This woman was becoming more and more disappointing to him.

Seeing Sun Jiao cry only irritated him further.

This woman was truly depressing!

He started to believe his bad luck was somehow caused by her.

That’s it, once this thing was over, he had to get a divorce!

“Why can’t I cry? You treat me this way, my heart aches. Do you know how much I’ve sacrificed for this family!” Sun Jiao sobbed.

“Fine, fine, you’ve worked hard. Now stop crying, Mr. Jia will be here soon and it’s unbecoming for him to see you like this!”

“You are the Bai family’s main daughter-in-law, you represent the face of the Bai family. Wouldn’t you be making a joke of us by acting this way?” Bai Ao said again, clearly fed up.

Watching a woman cry incessantly annoyed him to no end.

It felt as if his head was about to explode.

Damn woman!

“Right, I can’t cry, I’m the main daughter-in-law of the Bai family, I can’t let others laugh at me!” Sun Jiao said, wiping her tears.

She was strong-willed, but that was towards herself, so she cared very much about how others saw her.

Face mattered a great deal to her too!

“Alright, if you really can’t get past this, go back to your room. I’ll wait here for Mr. Jia alone!” Bai Ao said, a flicker of disgust flashing through his eyes.

“No, I will be here, and you will wait here for Mr. Jia with me,” Sun Jiao said, drying her tears.

Since she had made her choice, she had to see it through.

There was no turning back once the arrow had been shot; she understood that well.

It was for the sake of their future days that it had to be this way!

Bai Ao paid no more attention to Sun Jiao, focusing instead on the world outside.

Time ticked by, little by little.

Half an hour later…

A luxury car drove up, its glaring lights piercing through the window. At that moment, Bai Ao quickly stood up with excitement and walked out the door.

It was Mr. Jia!

Without a doubt!

Compared to Bai Ao, Sun Jiao had to forcefully suppress the sorrow in her heart. She slowly made her way to the entrance, revealing a faint smile.

“Mr. Jia, you’ve arrived!” Bai Ao, seeing Mr. Jia in casual attire, greeted him with an ingratiating smile.

Finally, he had come!

What a long wait it had been!

But now that he was here, things were looking up.

Had he not come, it would have been troublesome!

“Hmm, why haven’t I seen Susu?” Jia Ruguang’s effeminate face showed a touch of curiosity.

He looked around the living room upon entering, but saw no sign of Bai Susu.

This old fool better not be playing him!

“Bai Ao, you know how I feel about Bai Susu. If you dare to fool me, imagine how much worse I could make things for your Bai family once Old Master Bai passes away.. Without him, your entire Bai family will have no one to rely on!”
