198 I Can Divorce as Long as You Heal Me
“You know what I mean. Seriously, although you’re not a good man, your wife is quite lucky that she didn’t get sick because of you.” Zhao Chuchu glanced at Ms. Zhu. “So you can still be considered not bad.”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Wu Erlang was furious. “Did she give you silver? Why do you talk nonsense like that?”
“Don’t you feel sick looking at yourself? You can think about how your illness came about. I can prescribe you medicine if you want to cure it. Otherwise, just wait for it to fester.”
Wu Erlang was instantly like a balloon that had been punctured and was no longer arrogant.
Ms. Zhu gradually turned pale. Although she had not seen it before, she could understand what Zhao Chuchu said.
Wu Erlang was suffering from a terrible sexual disease.
“Mr. Wu, you are going too far with this. She doesn’t owe you anything, so why do you have to waste her life like this?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“I have no other meaning but to remind you that there will be karma. If you treat your wife like this, in the end, you will not end up well yourself.”
“What do you want?”
“That’s up to you, Mr. Wu. I’m just taking pity on an innocent woman.”
Wu Erlang stared at Zhao Chuchu with a fixed gaze.
And Ms. Zhu also looked at Zhao Chuchu in disbelief.
Wu Erlang came back to his senses. “Do you want me to divorce her?”
“Don’t you realize that you have already tortured an energetic woman into an old woman? Mr. Wu, there is no hatred between you. So why do you have to keep holding on to her like this?”
Zhao Chuchu initially didn’t want to be nosy, but she could not help but want to help Ms. Zhu when she saw Wu Erlang treating her in this manner.
Ms. Zhu was a very traditional woman—gentle and virtuous.
And Zhao Chuchu was more inclined toward women at all times.
As long as the other party didn’t have a feud with her, she wouldn’t make things difficult for them and could try to help them.
“Is this your condition?” Wu Erlang gritted his teeth.
Zhao Chuchu laughed. “Mr. Wu, I’m trying to reason with you. If I were bribed by your wife, I would have spread the matter out from the beginning. Furthermore, you haven’t even slept with your wife, so how would she know if you were sick or not?”
Wu Erlang calmed down after hearing this. He thought about it and felt that it made some sense.
“Can you really cure my illness?”
“I never promise anything that I am not sure of.”
Wu Erlang was also tormented and wished he could be cured.
But he dared not openly find someone to diagnose this illness. Instead, he secretly inquired about various prescriptions, but instead of being cured, he suffered more.
He was silent for a moment. “Okay, I promise to divorce my wife as long as you cure me!”
Zhao Chuchu looked at Ms. Zhu. “What do you think?”
Ms. Zhu didn’t expect that things would take such a turn.
She didn’t come back to her senses for a moment.
If Wu Erlang were willing to let her go, she would certainly want to escape from that place.
However, her parents…
“My parents…” Ms. Zhu hesitated. She didn’t want her parents to worry.
Zhao Chuchu turned back to Wu Erlang and asked, “Have you thought about how you will explain the divorce to the public?”
“I can’t have children and don’t want to hold her back any longer.” Wu Erlang looked at Ms. Zhu. He did not have any emotions in his heart. Anyway, he could marry another one by then. And he also felt bad looking at her.
“So, are you relieved?” Zhao Chuchu asked Ms. Zhu.
Ms. Zhu shed tears and nodded.
The exit of the cage, which she had wanted to escape from all her life, was right in front of her.
“However, Mr. Wu, you should tell your family about your own affairs. I believe no one loves you more than your parents, who can accept all your faults. Don’t let your wife be the one to be blamed!”
“Why do you have to be aggressive, Mrs. Xie?”
“Think of it as me sympathizing with a woman. You have nothing to lose by confessing this to your family, but it’s different for her.”
“What benefit has she given you? Why do you have to help her at all times?”
“Do you have a good relationship with your sister? Well, let’s imagine your sister married a man like you. What would you think then? Do not do unto others what you don’t want done unto you.”
Wu Erlang gritted his teeth but did not know what to say.
But he did not admit that he was wrong.
He agreed to Zhao Chuchu’s terms just for himself.
Ms. Zhu was not the only one who wanted to marry him.
“Okay.”
“How about I call your sister in now?”
“You…”
“Lest there be variables later, it is better to make a quick decision. Don’t worry, Mr. Wu. I’m a doctor with ethics and will not spread a patient’s privacy to others.”
“I’ll trust you for once!”
Wu Erlang also wanted to cure his illness, so he was willing to give in.
Even his “subordinate” did not know he had the disease, so it was unlikely that Zhao Chuchu could have found out about it from elsewhere.
...
How could she know at a glance if she didn’t have some ability?
Furthermore, Ms. Zhu locked herself in the house every day and did not go out of the gate, and the Qiu clan approached Zhao Chuchu on their own initiative, so it was impossible for Zhao Chuchu to do it on purpose.
Zhao Chuchu turned around and opened the door, asking the person on guard outside the house to invite Elder Mrs. Qiu in.
Elder Mrs. Qiu thought that something had happened to Wu Erlang and hurried over.
“Mrs. Xie, is my brother diagnosed with some other disease?” Elder Mrs. Qiu asked nervously.
Zhao Chuchu looked at Wu Erlang.
Wu Erlang was silent for a moment before he spoke forcefully. “I want a divorce.”
“What did you say?” Elder Mrs. Qiu’s eyes widened.
“It’s my problem not being able to have children. I don’t want to waste her time.” After starting, it was not difficult to say the rest of the words. Wu Erlang continued, “I have not touched her, and I even feel disgusted sleeping with her in the same bed.”
“Erlang, shut up!” Elder Mrs. Qiu was so angry that her face turned blue. “She is still here! How can you say such horrible things? Do you still deserve to be a human being?”
After a pause, Elder Mrs. Qiu hugged Ms. Zhu. “Sister-in-law, I’ve seen how filial you’ve been to our parents all these years. Don’t worry. I’ll never let Erlang bully you!”
...
“Wait, what did you say?” Elder Mrs. Qiu could hardly believe what she heard.
Elder Mrs. Qiu couldn’t react for a long time.
She looked at Ms. Zhu dumbly for a long time and then asked, “Sister-in-law, is what he said true?”
“Yes.” Ms. Zhu nodded with tears in her eyes.
“Oh my.”
Elder Mrs. Qiu only felt that she was blacking out.
She could never have imagined that Wu Erlang could not have children because of this!
“Mrs. Xie, do you have any medicine to cure him of this disease?” Elder Mrs. Qiu was desperate to find a cure.
