Chapter 2: She doesn’t want a man like this anymore

Wen Ning took a step forward, her delicate face and watery eyes making her look innocent and wronged.

She was also holding a child’s hand, Chen Xiaodong.

Seeing the two of them, Jiang Mingyue’s anger flared up.

What were they doing here?

Checking if she was completely dead?

Wen Ning anxiously pulled Chen Xiaodong, who looked disdainful and unwilling, towards the bedside.

She said softly, “Mingyue, I and the child are sorry for you and Xiaoxue. It’s my fault for not educating the child properly, he shouldn’t have taken Xiaoxue’s candy, which made Xiaoxue cry and angered you to cut your wrist.

Don’t be angry with Mingzhong, he cares about you and the child, but he sees that I have no husband, no brother, and no support. There’s really nothing between me and him, he just pities me.

I’m sorry, I’m useless. I’ll kneel down and apologize to you, please forgive Xiaodong.

No matter what, the child is innocent.”

Wen Ning became more and more upset as she spoke, and she started to choke up. She pulled Chen Xiaodong and pretended to kneel down together.

Jiang Xiaoxue, who was standing aside, pouted her red lips, her brows furrowed and her cheeks puffed up with anger.

Jiang Mingyue’s mind buzzed, and she finally remembered what had happened.

Yesterday, Luo Mingzhong came back from the county town and bought a bag of White Rabbit candies for Chen Xiaodong, but he didn’t buy any for Jiang Xiaoxue.

Chen Xiaodong took the candies and ate them with other children in the compound, deliberately showing off to Xiaoxue: “Uncle Luo bought these for me, Uncle Luo will soon be my dad.

Everyone in the compound knows that you are not Uncle Luo’s child, your mother picked you up from the trash can, so Uncle Luo doesn’t love you and doesn’t buy you candy.”

Jiang Xiaoxue ran home crying, gasping for breath.

“Mom, Chen Xiaodong said Dad doesn’t love me. Dad bought him a big bag of White Rabbit candies, and he didn’t buy me any because I’m not Dad’s child. He said I was picked up from the trash can.

Wuwuwu… Mom, is that true?”

Ever since Wen Ning came to the compound, Luo Mingzhong had been taking care of her and her child, openly and secretly.

What Jiang Xiaoxue had, Chen Xiaodong had.

What Jiang Xiaoxue didn’t have, Chen Xiaodong also had.

Those who didn’t know the situation thought they were a family of three.

Jiang Mingyue couldn’t bear it any longer. She rolled up her sleeves and rushed directly to the house where Wen Ning lived.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Luo Mingzhong changing the light bulb in the living room for Wen Ning. He had just come down from the chair, and Wen Ning’s eyes glanced at her deliberately with a smug look. She smiled softly and handed Luo Mingzhong a water-filled enamel mug with one hand, and used a towel to wipe his sweat intimately with the other.

She had never seen Luo Mingzhong do anything for her.

How ridiculous.

The person in front of her was her husband.

When the water pipe at home was broken and she asked him to fix it, Wen Ning was always the one who was anxious at the critical moment, so she had learned to do everything herself.

He said that Wen Ning was from the city and didn’t know anything.

If Wen Ning didn’t know, did she know?

In order to marry him, she had even broken up with her father.

For her, this kind of man was just a decoration.

At that moment, Jiang Mingyue was so angry that she felt like a joke. She couldn’t bear it any longer and rushed in like a madwoman, grabbed the hair at the back of Wen Ning’s head, and raised her hand to slap her.

But this slap didn’t land on Wen Ning’s face, and her wrist was grabbed by Luo Mingzhong.

Luo Mingzhong pushed her, and the huge force pushed her back several steps, and the small of her back hit the corner of the shoe cabinet heavily.

The pain in her lower back, coupled with the tearing pain in her heart, made Jiang Mingyue feel that her five years of love for Luo Mingzhong had become a joke.

She couldn’t think straight and committed suicide by cutting her wrists that night. It was Luo Mingzhong’s grandmother who discovered it and asked her mother-in-law, Lin Jinghua, to call the young comrade on duty at the entrance of the compound to send her to the hospital.

The time of discovery was too late, and the doctor felt that there was no hope, but Jiang Mingyue came back to life like a dying flash.

It was simply a miracle.

Wen Ning had just bent her knees when she was blocked by Luo Mingzhong.

“Qingqing, you don’t need to kneel to her, it’s none of your business. A dark heart sees everything as dirty. I bought the candy for Xiaodong, you don’t need to apologize to the child.”

Thump.

The same scene, after more than thirty years, appeared again, and she still felt heartache.

However, this time she made a major decision.

Luo Mingzhong, I will never love you with all my heart again.

Wen Ning is the sister of Luo Mingzhong’s martyred comrade, Wen Yonggang.

Wen Yonggang was Luo Mingzhong’s regimental commander, who died heroically in a mission three years ago, reportedly blocking a bullet for Luo Mingzhong.

He had just filed a marriage report before his death and applied for a house in the compound.

Who knew that once he left, he would never come back. The team pitied their mother and son, and originally let them live there temporarily, but who knew that once they lived there, it was never taken back.

And her husband, Luo Mingzhong, taking care of Wen Ning and her son became his indispensable responsibility and obligation.

When Luo Mingzhong was not promoted to regimental commander, his monthly salary was eighty yuan, thirty yuan for Jiang Mingyue, thirty yuan for Lin Jinghua, and twenty yuan for himself.

Two years ago, he was promoted to deputy regimental commander and his salary was increased. He had one hundred and twenty yuan a month. Luo Mingzhong gave Jiang Mingyue twenty yuan a month, Wen Ning fifty yuan a month, Lin Jinghua thirty yuan, and he kept the remaining twenty yuan for himself.

At first, Jiang Mingyue felt that she was a widow with a child, and she was unfamiliar with the place.

Regimental Commander Wen saved her husband, and it was right for them to take care of Wen Ning and her son.

After all, if it weren’t for Regimental Commander Wen, she would have become a widow.

But this giving lasted for three years.

Six hundred a year, and one thousand eight in three years.

When Wen Ning first came to the compound, she was diligent and sweet-tongued, and she often smiled and helped the people in the compound, so everyone had a good impression of her.

Every time she encountered something and asked Chen Xiaodong to find Luo Mingzhong, Jiang Mingyue would remind him to help if there was anything else he could do. The people in the compound saw that the three of them got along well, and sometimes joked in front of her that Luo Mingzhong and Wen Ning looked more like a family.

But after so many things happened, Jiang Mingyue felt that she was hopelessly stupid.

People wanted to steal her lover and occupy her home, and she was helping them cheer.

Seeing Luo Mingzhong’s actions, Jiang Mingyue sneered. Luo Mingzhong frowned impatiently and said, “What are you laughing at? Isn’t it just a bag of White Rabbit candies? I’ll buy one for Xiaoxue when I get back, are you satisfied now? Why are you angry with the child?”

“Is it a problem of a bag of candies?”

Jiang Mingyue just stared at him like that, her eyes calm and without any waves.

In her previous life, for the sake of this family, she repeatedly tolerated and persuaded herself again and again.

But in this life, she will never tolerate it again.

She doesn’t want such a man.

“Why don’t you ask me if I’m in pain, if my injury is serious? Even if Xiaoxue is not your biological daughter, she is still your daughter.

When you bought candies for Chen Xiaodong, did you think about Xiaoxue?

When Chen Xiaodong said those nasty things, did you think about Xiaoxue?

Luo Mingzhong, I ask you, when you think about Wen Ning and worry about her everywhere, have you ever thought about who is your wife?”

Luo Mingzhong’s face turned white and white again, and a trace of uncertainty flashed in his dark eyes. He opened his mouth, hesitated to speak.

“It’s not like what you think between us.”

Jiang Mingyue was amused by his anger: “Then what is it like?”
