Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 1043 - 1047: I’m Not Gloating Over Others’ Misfortune

Sure enough, Huo Gaodi understood Duan Zhuangyu too well. After analyzing the pros and cons, she reluctantly agreed to the divorce, leaving the two children with Huo Gaodi.

There was none of the legendary crying and fussing. Instead, she calmly made a request to take all the family’s savings.

Huo Gaodi saw that she didn’t consider the children at all, so he also made a request, using the savings to exchange for a breakup paper, which clearly stated that the children would have no obligation to support her in the future.

Coincidentally, the Civil Affairs Bureau was not far from the hospital, so Huo Gaodi quickly resolved things, and on the day Duan Zhuangyu was able to leave her bed, they completed their divorce.

When Yunyi heard about this, she sighed with emotion.

Huo Jingrui noticed Yunyi was silent after hearing the story: ”Yi’er, what’s wrong?”

”Jingrui, Duan Zhuangyu just agreed to the divorce like that? With her personality, wouldn’t she have caused a scene?”

”She was inherently selfish, naturally weighing the pros and cons. She knew with the nature of mom and dad and the rest of the family, they wouldn’t tolerate her after what happened. Leaving was her best option.

Leaving quietly might even earn her some respect. If she caused a fuss, her reputation would be ruined, and how would she continue to live in Forty-Nine City?”

What Huo Jingrui didn’t mention was that she probably miscalculated, thinking that leaving the Huo Family would prevent the matter from being publicly exposed. Too bad she shouldn’t have picked on our Yi’er.

The two of them left it at that, not continuing the topic: ”Yi’er, we’re going back to the city the day after tomorrow afternoon. Is everything okay on your end?”

Yunyi lazily leaned on the headboard: ”Exactly, tomorrow is Sister-in-law Lü’s last day of acupuncture.”

Huo Jingrui recalled Deputy Regimental Commander Lü constantly thanking him: ”Yi’er, how long does Sister-in-law Lü need to be treated?”

He knew that in a few years the family planning policy would begin, and ever since Deputy Lü saw hope, he was fully engrossed in wanting to give his son a little brother or sister.

With their mutual understanding, he didn’t need to ask, Yunyi also guessed his thoughts: ”If they follow what I said, in at most three months, they can prepare for pregnancy.”

Huo Jingrui joked: ”With such great news, Deputy Lü would definitely jump three feet high if he knew.”

Yunyi laughed looking at Huo Jingrui’s gestures, lifting her hand to touch her belly, her eyes full of tenderness.

Huo Jingrui placed his big hand over hers: ”Yi’er, after returning to Beijing, I’ll accompany you for a prenatal check.”

Yunyi waved her hand: ”No need, I’m a doctor myself, no need to go to the hospital.”

But Huo Jingrui squatted in front of her: ”Yi’er, I know your medical skills are extraordinary, but given your special constitution, it’s better to check for peace of mind. After all, it’s not like it hasn’t happened before when the pulse indicated twins but triplets were born.”

Yunyi knew what he was worrying about, and to ease his mind: ”Check-up should be done, but not before the end of the year. Better to go when I’m three months along.”

Huo Jingrui, hearing her say this: ”Alright, I’ll follow your lead.”

Meanwhile, other members of the Huo Family were also discussing the matter of Huo Gaodi and Duan Zhuangyu after hearing the news.

Huo Weiyu was too distracted to cook, venting her frustration to her husband Lu Fuchang: ”Fuchang, I’m not gloating, but I truly feel it’s unfair for our Gaodi. He’s such a good person yet ended up with someone so unreliable like Duan Zhuangyu. Now it’s finally fine, Gaodi got things figured out.”
