It was Grandpa Du who finally convinced her, saying she didn't need to wait for Shen Yi, that she should just let the boy starve.
For a long time, Qin Jiao felt her marriage was an empty one. If Mr. Du hadn't been there back then, it would have been worse. When Shen Yi wasn't losing his temper, it felt as though she were the only person in that entire, enormous house.
"Jiao Jiao, what are you thinking about? I'm ready. Let's go eat."
"Mhm." Qin Jiao nodded and headed out, saying as she went, "Tell me, why were you so awful to me in our last life?"
Shen Yi said hurriedly, "Jiao Jiao, I…"
"Never mind, never mind. It's all in the past. Besides, this marriage is fake now, so you don't need to feel so bad about it."
Qin Jiao had truly moved on and wasn't bothered anymore. She gave a dismissive wave and walked away.
But Shen Yi was filled with unspoken bitterness and sighed softly.
