Chapter 433: Chapter 433: 433 Forgotten Mother After Getting a Wife_1

“Cough, cough…” Hai Xiaotang didn’t expect her to suddenly ask such a question and was caught off guard.

Dongfang Yu on the side also darkened his face.

He quickly comforted Hai Xiaotang, “Don’t get too excited, be careful not to strain your wound.”

It indeed hurt as if she had strained something…

Hai Xiaotang endured the pain, but didn’t show it. But Dongfang Yu still noticed.

He shot a dissatisfied glance at his mother, “Mom, you don’t know anything, can you stop talking nonsense?”

“…” He Meilian really wanted to lament.

Sons are all ungrateful, forgetting their parents once they have a wife!

She embarrassedly laughed, “I can’t be blamed for this; anyone would have thought the same. But seeing how anxious you are for Xiaotang, you would certainly not hurt her, so how exactly did she get injured?”

“I was showering in the bathroom and accidentally fell a few times!” Hai Xiaotang quickly explained.

“Tsk, tsk, how could you be so careless…” He Meilian instantly believed her explanation, she immediately instructed Dongfang Yu, “It seems like you need to renovate your bathroom, otherwise, what will happen if Xiaotang falls again when she’s pregnant?”

“Understood!” Dongfang Yu responded, “We will start renovating immediately.”

“Go do it now, renovation will take a few days.”

“Okay.” Dongfang Yu really went out to call someone to renovate the bathroom.

However, as soon as he left, He Meilian lowered her voice and asked Hai Xiaotang, “Xiaotang, have you and Yuyu discussed it?”

Hai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment before understanding what she meant.

She was asking about their divorce…

A touch of despair flashed in Hai Xiaotang’s eyes, “I told him, but he disagreed.”

He Meilian was not too surprised, “I figured he wouldn’t agree. Ah, this child is too stubborn. But it puts us, his parents, in a tough spot.”

Hai Xiaotang didn’t quite understand her meaning.

He Meilian explained, “Actually, the Dongfang business was initially built up by Yuyu’s grandfather and great-uncle. But after the family business declined, they separated.

However, Yuyu’s grandfather passed away very early. Back then, Yuyu’s great-uncle took care of Zujie and received help from other family members. Without their support along the way, Zujie would not be where he is today.

Therefore, they also greatly contributed to the success of Dongfang.

Although Yuyu led Dongfang and generated a lot of profits, we cannot deny the family’s contribution over these years.

Now that the whole family is strongly against you two being together, and Yuyu won’t listen to them, as his parents, we have to consider the family’s opinions. Therefore, we have to inconvenience you.”

Hai Xiaotang was slightly taken aback by her explanation but she still nodded, “Mom, I understand what you said… Moreover, this indeed seems like a good solution…”

“Yes, it’s just a temporary divorce, I don’t understand why Yuyu disagrees.” He Meilian said with a furrowed brow.

She didn’t understand, but Hai Xiaotang did.

It wasn’t until last night that she understood Dongfang Yu’s fears.

But others definitely wouldn’t understand him… Because they were not him.

After He Meilian left, Hai Xiaotang felt somewhat dispirited.

Dongfang Yu stroked her head, “Why, feeling tired?”

Hai Xiaotang shook her head, just fixing him with a complicated gaze.

Dongfang Yu looked puzzled, “What’s wrong, did my mom say something to you?”
