"If you don't come over soon, your son isn't going to recognize you, and you won't recognize him either."
"Alright, alright! Where are you now? I'll come find you," Yi Anguo said helplessly.
"Where else would we be? The usual place. Hurry over," Chen Ting said.
After hanging up, Yi Anguo could only apologize to Hu Jing before leaving to meet Chen Ting.
"Go on. You really should take more time to be with Chen Ting and her son. He is your son, too. Even though his last name is Chen, you can't be unfair to him by giving him too little of a father's love," Hu Jing said understandingly.
"If all the women in the world were as understanding as you, life would be wonderful," Yi Anguo said with genuine feeling.
"They treat you very well, too! And compared to them, I think I've already received far too much of your love," Hu Jing said with a smile.
After Yi Anguo left, Hu Qian couldn't help but mutter, "What a womanizer! Sister, are you just going to let him get away with this?"
Hu Jing smiled. "Then what do you think I should do? Should I get angry and argue with him? Push him into another woman's arms so he never wants to come home again?"
Hu Qian couldn't hold back any longer. "Sister! You don't lack anything now. You have money and a company. You could live a great life even without him!"
"So what?" Hu Jing retorted. "Everything I have was given to me by your brother-in-law. Without him, I don't know where I'd be, probably living like a walking corpse. You might not have been able to graduate from university so smoothly, either. The funeral for Grandma and Grandpa wouldn't have been so grand. We might not have even had the money to buy them two coffins."
"Now, I have money, a company, and both a son and a daughter. Your brother-in-law does indeed have other women, but I will never leave him or betray him. I hope this is the last time you say something like this. I don't want to hear it from you ever again. For the past few years, he has treated you very well—better than his own sister! You shouldn't talk about him like that."
Hu Qian was stunned that her sister was so deeply devoted to her brother-in-law.
"Sister! It's not that I dislike him, I just feel you're being wronged," Hu Qian explained.
"Sister, you're so generous about him being with other women. So, if I also fell in love with him, and he fell for me, and we got together... would you oppose it? Could you accept us?"
Hu Jing hadn't expected this day to finally come. She had always known, deep down, that her sister had fallen for Yi Anguo. The way Hu Qian's eyes lit up whenever she saw him couldn't lie.
But Hu Jing did not approve of her sister becoming another one of Yi Anguo's women. She hoped her sister could find a man who loved her and whom she loved in return, so they could walk down the aisle together, with her sister in a beautiful white wedding dress.
Although she would never leave or betray Yi Anguo, Hu Jing knew that she, herself, would never be able to walk down the aisle with him, wear a white dress, and become his legal wife. This was something every woman dreamed of, and Hu Jing was no exception. She wanted it all, too.
However, becoming Yi Anguo's woman meant forfeiting that dream forever.
Hu Jing had no choice in the matter. She would never leave him just for a chance at those things.
Still, she desperately didn't want her sister to follow the same path. Wouldn't it be better for her to find a good man to marry and live as an ordinary couple?
"You know he has other women. Why would you still want to jump into this pit?" Hu Jing asked, taking a moment to calm herself.
"I genuinely don't want you to follow my path. For me, it's different. I have no other choice. Besides your brother-in-law, I can't fall in love with any other man; it's simply impossible for me. But you're different! There's no way your feelings for him are as deep as mine. They can't possibly be. So you really don't need to be with him. There's no need to wade into these muddy waters!"
"Weren't you just trying to convince me to leave him? If you marry someone else, I can promise you a generous dowry. A car, a house—I can give you all of that. I can even give you some of the company's shares, at least twenty percent.
"But if you get together with your brother-in-law, you will never be able to walk down the street openly with him as husband and wife. You'll never become his legal wife, walk down the aisle with him, or wear a beautiful white wedding dress."
