Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!

Chapter 220: Things Are Different Now

Now that the two of them had met again in the pharmacy, they were both in completely different worlds.

“Why are you here?”

Yun Shan looked at Wu Mei and asked in surprise.

“I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, but my life right now is a complete mess.”

When Wu Mei heard Yun Shan’s concern for her, she wanted to pour out all the grievances that she had suffered all these years.

“What are you talking about? What exactly happened to you during these years when I was not around?”

Yun Shan’s tone was also a little anxious.

“That year, I listened to my parents and moved from the countryside to the county town. At first, it was a really good life for two years. My parents used the money they had saved from raising pigs back then to run a small business in the city. Their business was quite good. My parents moved the wedding date between Zhao Biao and me forward.”

At this point, Wu Mei’s eyes revealed a trace of regret.

“When we had only been married for less than two years, my family’s business declined, and we no longer received the approval of my husband’s family. But at least we have been husband and wife for a few years, and Zhao Biao didn’t treat me particularly badly. However, Zhao Biao’s father offended some important people, and soon, his position as deputy county head was revoked.”

When Wu Mei said this, she had already started to cry softly.

Yun Shan looked at Wu Mei’s appearance and felt very uncomfortable. After all, this was the woman he had truly loved when he was young. When he heard that her life was very miserable, Yun Shan was still very sad.

Although Yun Shan did not know the details, he knew very well that this was definitely not a simple matter.

“After that, he spent all his time at home, exhausting everything we had. In order to avoid wasting his time, Zhao Biao gave up on his career path and started doing some small businesses. In the beginning, his business was doing well and I thought that we could carry on peacefully. However, he wanted to expand his business just when things were picking up. The business world was always fluctuating, and his life also followed the ups and downs of his business.”

“What about you now?”

“The business is not doing well now. In the past, there were losses and profits, but now there are only debts. When he lost his business, he was in a bad mood. He owed a lot of foreign debts, and now he’s scolding and beating me. I can’t live like this anymore!”

Wu Mei was crying her heart out.

“So what are you going to do now?” Yun Shan wanted to ask Wu Mei what she thought.

Wu Mei saw that Yun Shan was still very concerned about her, so she threw herself into Yun Shan’s arms and cried bitterly in his broad arms.

“I found out that I was pregnant a while ago, but this child was destined to not be able to stay. We can’t even afford to support ourselves now. We may be at the end of the road, let alone a child.”

“Brother Shan, why is my life so hard?”

“Don’t cry…” Yun Shan saw that Wu Mei was crying so sadly, and his heart ached terribly.

Yun Shan patted Wu Mei in his arms and comforted her.

“Brother Shan, I don’t know what to do now. Fortunately, I met you. I hope you can help me.”

Wu Mei lay on Yun Shan’s chest, sobbing as she spoke.

“I know. Don’t worry, I will definitely help you.” Yun Shan nodded, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to get her out of that wolf’s den.

“How are you doing now? Are you married?” Wu Mei asked shyly.

“This... I have a family, and I have a son and a daughter.” Yun Shan hesitated for a moment before answering.

Wu Mei was obviously stunned when she heard this answer, but then she began to speak again.

“How did brother Shan and sister-in-law get to know each other?”

“How else could we get to know each other? It was the villagers who arranged for us to get married.”

Yun Shan looked at Wu Mei, then looked at the medicinal herbs in his hands. He thought for a moment.

“Let me help you get the medicinal herbs you need first.”

“Okay.”

“By the way, are you feeling okay now?” Yun Shan looked at Wu Mei and pointed at the bruises in the corner of her eyes. He asked worriedly.

“I’m fine. It’s just some superficial wounds. It’s not a big deal.”

“It looks pretty serious. Let me help you get some ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.”

“Thank you, Brother Shan.”

This man was still as gentle as before. Wu Mei thought back to her childhood.
