I lay in bed, staring at the pitch-black ceiling, feeling a deep sense of despair. I kept asking myself what I had done wrong, why, despite my best efforts to treat him well, he couldn't give his heart to me. Is it really true, as others say, that once a man changes his mind, there's no way to win him back? I pondered this all night without finding an answer. My heart felt as if it had fallen into a cold abyss, shivering with chill. Tears flowed continuously, soaking my pillow.
The next day, I called Lizi, asking her for a favor. Lizi laughed and said, "Wow, it's rare! Sun Meng actually needs my help." I sighed and replied, "I'm not asking you; I'm requesting your assistance."
"Go ahead, what's the matter?"
"I might have discovered a secret about Xie Zhong and Xia Ranran."
"What did you say?" Lizi's tone turned serious immediately. I told her about what I had seen the night before and said, "Lizi, you have so many connections in the media; could you help me find a reporter who specializes in following stories? I want to figure out what exactly happened between Xie Zhong and Xia Ranran."
"Sure, send me the address, and I'll help you find someone."
I sent Lizi the address of Xie Zhong and Xia Ranran's old house. Within an hour, Lizi called me back. She said the reporter was already on the case.
The next evening, Lizi called me again. " Meng, the reporter captured footage of Xia Ranran living in that house with her son, but so far, there hasn't been any sighting of Xie Zhong visiting her."
"Okay, I understand."
" Meng, what are you planning to do?"
I forced a bitter smile and said, "I don't know."
I truly didn't know.
If there really is something between Xie Zhong and Xia Ranran, what should I do?
Divorce?
But I can't bear to.
I can't bear to part with this relationship that we've built over so many years.
I also can't bear to let go of everything Xie Zhong has now.
That is the result of our joint efforts.
“ Meng, what’s the situation with Xia Ranran now?”
“It seems she has nothing, raising a child alone.”
“What about the child's father?”
“Unknown.”
“Didn’t she ask for any assets during the divorce?”
“Probably not.”
Lizi's voice suddenly rose, “Damn, isn’t she just a mistress?”
“She’s not a mistress.”
“How can she not be a mistress if she didn’t ask for a single penny during the divorce? Isn’t she just after her ex-husband’s money?”
I sighed, “I don’t know.”
“Wait!” Lizi suddenly realized, “Are you saying that Xia Ranran’s child is Xie Zhong’s child?”
I was silent for a moment and whispered, “I guess so.”
“Damn!” Lizi couldn’t help but curse, “That scumbag Xie Zhong, I really want to kill him!”
“ Meng, what are you planning to do?”
“I don’t know.”
“This kind of thing can’t be tolerated; you must get a divorce!”
“But…”
"What do you mean? Do you still love him?"
I sighed, "I love him. I've loved him for seven years. How can I just say I don't love him anymore?"
"What are you planning to do?"
"I don't know."
I really don't know.
My mind is in chaos right now.
I don't even know if I should investigate this matter.
Maybe I won't find anything and will just be creating trouble for myself.
Maybe if I uncover the truth, it will only cause me more pain.
But if I don't look into it, I'll feel miserable regardless.
I'm scared; I'm scared that Xia Ranran's child is really Xie Zhong's child.
