Hearing the news that I had divorced my husband, my ex-boyfriend immediately made an action that shocked everyone.
Hai and I had been in love for 4 years. But at that time, we were both young, our egos were too high. Every time we argued, we would be angry with each other for several weeks because neither of us gave in first. Hai was an ambitious person, always wanting to strive for his work. I needed romance and care from my boyfriend. Disagreements over many things led to the end of our relationship.
On the day we broke up, Hai burst into tears, hugged me, and begged me to reconsider. I had made up my mind, I didn’t want to live my whole life with a man who only knew about work. The more heartless a man is, the more disadvantaged a woman is.
Then I got married that same year. After only a few months of getting to know each other quickly. My husband is very romantic. He is an artist, romantic to the point of being detached from reality. All day long he just hugs his camera looking for beautiful landscapes to take pictures. His income is unstable. I become the main breadwinner in the house.
We gradually drifted apart. My husband always talked about things in the sky, like clouds, wind, trees and leaves. I only knew how to talk about money. He blamed me for being pragmatic. I blamed him for being too indifferent and irresponsible. Because of my husband’s overly romantic nature, I didn’t dare to have children.
After 2 years of living together, I couldn’t stand my husband anymore. When we ran out of money, he was willing to borrow money to live instead of working. When my parents were sick, he left me to take care of them because he was busy taking pictures. I was so frustrated that I decided to divorce.
After the divorce, I felt my life was easier. After going through a breakup, I realized even more how wrong I was in choosing a husband. I started to miss and think about my ex-boyfriend more. Only a man like Hai could bring lasting happiness to his wife. Unfortunately, it was too late.
Unexpectedly, after 3 months of my divorce, Hai came to my house. After a happy conversation, he showed me 2 red land certificates and asked me to marry him. Hai said he always regretted losing me, now he wanted to make up for his past mistakes. Even though I had a family, he didn’t care.
I was so happy, I felt like God was making up for me. We have been intimate with each other for over a month now. Being with Hai, I felt like I had returned to the past, loved and happy.
I told my mother, and said I planned to sell the house and move in with Hai. After hearing that, my mother got angry and scolded me for being foolish. She asked me if I had researched carefully, why did I continue to ask for marriage after just getting divorced? I told her that I loved Hai, I would come live with him, no need for a wedding.
My mother slapped me hard. She said I was crazy. Hai was deeply in debt, and his house was mortgaged to the bank. Now he came to me just to entice me to sell the land we were living on to earn money to pay off the debt.
I was shocked by what my mother said. No wonder Hai kept urging me to sell the house. He painted a picture of living together as husband and wife. But the two red books that Hai gave me were both under his name. He also promised that as long as I agreed to be his wife, he would let me have my name on both red books.
I felt like I was caught in a maze, not knowing what was real and what was fake? Could it be that my mother was deliberately saying that so that I wouldn’t go back to Hai?
