The second conversation ended inconclusively once again, and Gu Xiaoman gave Shen Zichu three days to consider either dealing with Shao Wei or... getting a divorce.
Before, Shen Zichu used to mock Huo Tingxiao, but now, it's over; he has become a fellow sufferer, and even worse off than Huo Tingxiao.
Huo Tingxiao wasn't sympathetic to Shen Zichu because he had only recently started to improve, at least to the point where Mu Lan wasn't repulsed by him anymore.
"No one can help you with matters of the heart, and moreover, I had already warned you about Shao Wei."
Shen Zichu felt a headache coming on. Divorcing Gu Xiaoman was absolutely not an option, but bringing Shao Wei back had been decided before they were married. Now, because of his own actions, if he drove her away, what would he become?
"Tingxiao, I'm really out of ideas right now. Can you help me think of a way to solve Shao Wei's issue?"
