He Yuzhu had always considered himself properly married to Ran Qiuye, a husband in every sense of the word. Even when Lou Xiaoe made advances, it had nearly caused Ran Qiuye to file for divorce. Had He Yuzhu not fought desperately to hold the marriage together, Lou Xiaoe and their child might never have returned to his life. In truth, He Yuzhu could never bear to part with Ran Qiuye, and he had spared no effort to maintain their bond. Fortunately, Ran Qiuye had ultimately chosen to forgive him. It was precisely because He Yuzhu knew how much she cherished their family that he had poured so much of himself into her relatives, finally securing the stability he enjoyed today.
He had not expected Lou Xiaoe to start playing the victim now, which was the very reason for his anger. Of course, he knew she longed to be with him and even hoped to marry him. But that was impossible; he was already bound to Ran Qiuye.
He Yuzhu was boiling with rage. If Lou Xiaoe hadn't put on this aggrieved act, he might have believed she was acting without ulterior motives. But here she was, using their children, manipulating them into misunderstanding the nature of his and their relationship. Moreover, her current hesitation was baffling; if she hadn't wanted to be with him in the first place, she never should have stayed by his side. Ever since they had been together, there was no reason for such wavering.
