"Tianyu, let's get a divorce!"
A single sentence uttered plunged the room into absolute silence.
A few minutes later, Ouyang Mo Tianyu looked up at her, but only for a fleeting moment before returning his gaze to the computer screen.
"Why?" Ouyang Mo Tianyu asked, still engrossed in his computer.
"Because I'm tired and no longer interested in loving you."
"Do you regret it?"
Hmph! Even if he asked her a hundred times, her answer would still be no!
She had been foolish and ignorant for too long, but now, she would never repeat her past mistakes.
The story goes back a few weeks.
She had been hospitalized due to a serious illness, but no one came to care for her, not even her husband in name only.
A few days later, she fell into a coma and woke up in her marital room.
"Madam Ouyang, you're awake?" A young girl walked in and asked.
"Ah Hsin, why are you here?" Shen Luoning asked, surprised, because Ah Hsin had quit her job a year ago due to family matters back home.
"Young Madam, I've only been working here for a few months!"
Shen Luoning was even more surprised and asked what year it was.
To her surprise, it was now exactly one year since she and Ouyang Mo Tianyu got married – two years in the past!
Shen Luoning couldn't believe what was happening, thinking it was a dream, but no, it was real: she had been reborn two years in the past!
Knowing she had been reborn two years in the past, she had to quickly end this marriage and reclaim her freedom.
To be honest, she had loved him deeply, but his indifference and coldness in return had slowly chilled her heart until she could no longer feel love.
So, she had to get a divorce quickly!
"I don't regret it at all; in fact, I'm angry at myself for not divorcing you sooner!" Shen Luoning said.
Ouyang Mo Tianyu still said nothing, just stared at his computer screen.
"Then just wait a little longer. Wait for me to make arrangements," Ouyang Mo Tianyu said with a rather indifferent tone.
"Wait? Why wait? We just need to sign the divorce papers and send them to court, and it's done," Shen Luoning couldn't understand Ouyang Mo Tianyu's thinking.
Ouyang Mo Tianyu took his eyes off the computer screen and told her, "Grandpa's health isn't good right now. What would happen to him if he found out we were divorcing?"
It was true that his grandfather's health wasn't good; it was precisely because of that that she had been able to marry him, enjoying his free, heartless indifference for three whole years.
"Alright, then let's wait until Grandpa gets better, and then we'll divorce. In the meantime, let's separate," Shen Luoning said, then walked out.
Just as her hand grasped the doorknob, she heard his voice from behind.
"Just stay here and appear normal in front of everyone, just like before."
Shen Luoning scoffed. Did this man not understand what she was saying, or what, that he would ask her to do that now?
But she simply replied, "Fine."
Only then did Ouyang Mo Tianyu look up at the closed door, bewildered.
They'd only been married for a year, and she was already tired of it?
It's only the first chapter, but I don't know what else to write.
Should I give this couple a good ending? Most rebirth stories seem to end with a Happy Ending.
