Rebirth: Once Again With You

Su Suyin had been waiting nervously at home. She kept pacing back and forth in front of the table in her room. The divorce paper on top had already been filled out properly and only lacked one person's signature.

Li Jirong was once very gentle towards her, and every day felt like a dream because he pampered her so much. As time passed by, his smile gradually dissipated and turned into a frown every time his gaze fell on her, as though he were looking at something he didn't want to see.

His treatment towards her became significantly colder when he gave birth to the twins.

Her love had corroded over time, and the time to finally let go of this attachment finally came, yet she couldn't sit still. It was because she put her children on the front line for her sake.

Su Suyin looked down at the divorce paper, but there was no sadness in her. If there was something she regretted, was that why she didn't do this earlier and made her children suffer with her.

Then again, if she asked for a divorce from Li Jirong, she probably wouldn't be able to meet with her children anymore, and she wanted to avoid that at all costs.

While she was worrying, she heard the sound of the door opening, so she went out of the room to check. She briefly glanced at the clock in the living room, which showed the current time, 9 PM.

Li Jirong stepped in from outside while loosening his tie, looking more tired than usual. Upon noticing Su Suyin came over, he handed over—or more precisely, shoved his bag to her and walked inside.

"Is Jie in his room?" Li Jirong asked while sitting on his chair in the dining room. He waved his hand slightly, which usually meant he was thirsty and wanted Su Suyin to fetch some drink for him.

Previously, Su Suyin had never paid attention to this little gesture since it had always been like that, but now that she had made up her mind to divorce, she realized how foolish she was once again. Li Jirong's affection for her had long vanished. Since then, Su Suyin was nothing but his loyal servant or obedient follower to him.

She bit her lips in frustration. Whenever she recalled the scandalous picture of Li Jirong with various women on Li Caiyi's phone, her blood was boiling, and she felt enraged. Not because her husband betrayed her, but because this man's shamelessness knew no bounds.

Among all the pictures Li Caiyi showed her, Li Jirong was spotted with the nurse she met in the hospital more often. Most likely, that woman was his favorite among everyone else he was having an affair with.

To think his husband tricked her into thinking that he genuinely cared for her just to kick her away. He shamelessly let his mistress watch over his sick daughter to prevent his wife from wandering around the hospital too often. Just how much did he look down on her?

Su Suyin took a deep breath to calm her mind. She repeatedly told herself that she couldn't win against her husband and thus shouldn't act recklessly.

The past experience, whenever they got into an argument, never ended well, and she didn't want to unnecessarily alert her husband and ruin her children's plan.

Su Suyin put his bag on the other chair and went to make a cup of coffee like she usually did.

"Are the kids all in the house right now?" Li Jirong asked again in a lazy tone.

"Yes. They are." Su Suyin replied shortly.

"Tell Jie to come to my room after this. Make sure Xiaohua and Xiaoyi don't disturb us."

Su Suyin's hand slipped a bit so that she accidentally put the cup rougher than she intended. It caused a bit of its content to spill onto the table, and Li Jirong exclaimed in displeasure.

"What are you doing? Can't you even serve your tired husband a cup of coffee properly? Look at the mess you have made now!" He berated her.

"... I'm sorry," Su Suyin replied, albeit she felt very indignant toward this person in front of him now.

After kicking Li Caiyi out of the house and not mentioning her for the last few days, he asked about her like nothing had happened at all. It was almost like he didn't even notice whether or not Li Caiyi was there in the past few days.

"What are you even thinking just now?" Li Jirong said in disgust while wiping a bit of coffee splashed on his shirt. He clicked his tongue in irritation when the stain didn't come off.

"Tsk. Now you are just ruining everything. I don't feel like drinking coffee anymore now."

Usually, if Li Jirong was annoyed like this, Su Suyin would apologize until he calmed himself down. But now, forget about apologizing; she almost wanted to take the cup and splash the content on his body. The mere sight of Li Jirong's face revolted her.

"Father, Mother, what happened?"

Both adults jerked their heads simultaneously to the voice source to find Li Junjie standing a few steps from them and staring at them with his expressionless face.

"Jie, I was just about to let your mother call you. We have something to talk about." Li Jirong was the first to break the silence.

"Sure, Father. Are you sure you don't want to wash up first?"

Li Jirong looked down at his coffee-stained shirt before sighing in exasperation. "I will take a shower first."

Then, without sparing a glance toward Su Suyin anymore, he turned around and went into his bedroom.

"Mother, are you okay?" Li Junjie walked over to Su Suyin and asked her.

Su Suyin let out a small smile before nodding. "Mother is fine, Jie. I'm so sorry that you always have to look after your pathetic mother like this."

"Did Father say something again to you?"

"It's just the usual. Nothing to worry about," Su Suyin said while tucking her hair behind her ears. A gesture she made whenever she felt nervous.

"Whatever he said to you, it doesn't matter anymore. I'll make sure to end it tonight. Just rest early for tonight, and don't forget to lock the room."

Li Junjie was very calm when he said that, but it only made Su Suyin more nervous. "Jie, I really think we should talk together with your father. I can't let you go against a temperamental person like him alone. I wish he won't, but there's no guarantee he won't hurt you."

"I'm aware of the risk and prepared for the consequences. Hence, I'm confident I can win the argument. Having Mother or my siblings there would only disturb the scenario I have in mind, so please cooperate with me."

"Jie…" Su Suyin stared at his son helplessly. He barely had any change of emotion on his face, but it was clear he planned everything while considering everyone's well-being. Except for himself.

Li Junjie didn't want to hear his mother's apology anymore, so he cut the conversation short by saying, "I have to talk to Father now. Don't forget what I said, Mother."

Su Suyin couldn't stop her son, so she reluctantly let him go.
