When everything settled, I felt unlucky and sold the house. Then I bought a small apartment, which is cozy to live in.

I gave all the furniture in the house to the aunties in the neighborhood.

They were naturally happy and comforted me one after another.

I smiled and started to decorate my little house wholeheartedly.

I decorated it in my favorite pastoral style, no longer the black and white style that Song Zhibai liked.

I changed the four-piece set on the bed to a floral one, which feels warm and not as oppressive as the dark one.

I also turned the balcony into a small garden, planted some flowers and plants, and sit there every day to play with Wanwan.

My mom smiled and asked me, "Are you planning to get married again?"

I shook my head, "The word 'marriage' is vivid. Only a crazy woman thinks about getting married!"

I made it clear that my mom didn't dare to continue to provoke me after learning that Song Zhibai wanted to harm me by drugging me, and let me do as I pleased.

I sold my previous car and bought a camper van with some extra money and renovated it.

I got the keys and called Li Zimu, "Do you want to travel?"

She agreed quickly and her eyes lit up when she saw my car, "Is this going to be an impromptu trip?"

I showed her the map, "Didn't you always want to go to Yunnan? Let's have a great time this time!"

Li Zimu hugged and kissed me several times, but I saw Nannan running towards us from a distance. She looked timid, "Auntie."

I squatted down, smiling and handed her a candy, "Why are you here alone?"

Nannan didn't speak, and Song's parents hurriedly ran up, looking embarrassed when they saw me.

I left them with one-third of my property, which is enough for them to live comfortably.

Fortunately, they are reasonable people and didn't continue to make trouble for me.

During the conversation, I learned that Cui Yilian had left Nannan and went to another city, feeling isolated and struggling.

I felt no ripples in my heart and said goodbye to them.

Li Zimu waved to me, "Let's go."

I nodded, stepped on the gas pedal after getting in the car, and headed to Yunnan.

We witnessed the spring-like Kunming, the picturesque Lijiang Ancient Town and Dali Ancient Town, the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake, and experienced the enthusiasm of Xishuangbanna.

Fortunately, I encountered the Dai Water Splashing Festival.

Li Zimu and I blended in with the locals and had a great time.

It was late at night when Li Zimu said, "Cui Yilian has a new boyfriend who is very wealthy. She said he will take her to Myanmar to make money."

I was worried that someone else was being deceived, but soon I suppressed my compassionate heart, "If she wasn't greedy, she wouldn't have followed him. In the end, it's her own greed that caused this, she can only blame herself."

We stayed in Yunnan for three months before returning.

On a whim, I went to the mental hospital to see Song Zhibai.

He is in a much better mental state now, and much more sober. He saw me and burst into tears, "Mingyue, I was wrong."

He talked a lot.

He shouldn't have gotten drunk and had sex.

He shouldn't have slept with Cui Yilian.

He shouldn't have made me have an abortion just to take care of Nannan.

He shouldn't have developed murderous intent towards me and wanted to get rid of me without me noticing.

I listened quietly and calmly retorted,

"One wrong step leads to many more. The current situation is all your own doing.

"So, focus on getting better, because after you're discharged, there's still prison waiting for you.

"Also, don't keep saying you love me. It's disgusting! The only person you love is yourself."

With that, I turned and left without looking back. When I came out, Wannuan jumped onto me.

I smiled and picked her up. She had grown so big in just three months that I can barely carry her anymore.

I think, if that child was born, she would have been just as lively and active, right?

But now I have Wannuan.
