Chapter 964: Chapter 961: The One Point Five Wives
Yan Xixi was furious, but she couldn’t find the words to speak.
Li Zhen was all in: "Yan Xixi, these words aren’t something I just thought of today. I’ve wanted to say them for a long time. Wan Donglin, is he really that good? Besides giving you money, what else has he given you? Yes, his family’s business is big, he’s wealthy beyond measure, but in his eyes, this money is essentially unimportant, isn’t it? Spending just a little, he’s got you tightly bound, gaining the best years of a woman at the minimal cost. Do you really think this kind of love is worth you giving up everything for?"
"..."
"In these three days with you, I haven’t seen you receive any calls from him, not even a message. Doesn’t he know what holiday this is? Christmas! It’s a major holiday!"
Such an important holiday, yet he completely forgets his loved one.
Darling, are you sure you’re really loved as much as you think?
Are you sure?
Yan Xixi’s breathing was rapid, but she couldn’t argue, for the first time in her life, she felt very embarrassed, very humiliated.
"..."
"Yes, after you turned me down last time, I gave up. But I’m not here now just to take advantage of a vulnerable moment. Actually, I’m just certain that he wouldn’t come looking for you..."
Sure enough, he didn’t come at all, with no news whatsoever.
"Don’t even mention that he’s too busy to leave, that he has important work... Yan Xixi, no one needs to save the world these days. Admit it, the real reason is that you aren’t as important to him as you think..."
Li Zhen paused: "Just like Li Mingyu and An’an. After being together for a long time, when a man no longer feels the thrill, whether they break up or continue is irrelevant. Especially for a wealthy man like Wan Donglin, he’s never worried about loneliness, he can always find someone else. More or less, it makes no difference to them. But for a woman, once time passes, she becomes reluctant to let go..."
"..."
"At least Huang Xiaojue once risked his life to save you, but what about Wan Donglin? Aside from money, what else has he ever given you?"
"..."
"Has he proposed to you? Said when you’re getting married? Yan Xixi, have you ever thought about these things? Or are you just like those other women, as long as there’s money, it doesn’t matter if the man is around or not?"
There’s a type of woman called a "one-point-five wife," officially married, not a mistress, but sees her husband less than twice a month, at most having an intimate life one and a half times a month, knowing her husband has affairs outside but pretends not to know, regarded by others as a clever woman. She doesn’t want a divorce, doesn’t work and lives like a pampered canary, mostly accompanied only by her pets. People call such women in marriage "one-point-five wives."
Yan Xixi’s face was so red it was almost flushed as if only now did she realize Li Zhen was indeed a man studying a doctorate in law—not the simplistic big boy she always thought he was.
In her entire life, she’d never heard such unpleasant words, yet they were spot-on, piercing to the bone.
She was breathing with difficulty, unable to say a word, just gritting her teeth tightly.
"Yan Xixi..."
She quietly put the necklace back into the box and pushed it heavily in front of him: "Li Zhen, you don’t need to come see me again! I don’t need it."
He knew that he had thoroughly offended her. But if it wasn’t out of genuine concern, who would be willing to offend someone for no reason? No matter if you become a mess!
